Situ Yongwen successfully defeated Nangong Ke from the Nangong Family. This meant that Situ Yongwen was the first person to advance to the semifinals.
When the other families saw that someone from the Situ Family had advanced to the semifinals, they became anxious. Especially the Nangong Family. Since Nangong Ke had been defeated, the Nangong Family only had Nangong Jue left.
If Nangong Jue was defeated, the Nangong Family would be completely eliminated. They would no longer be in the top three, nor would they be in the Death Domain.
More importantly, the battle between Nangong Jue and Guan Zhixin was in a stalemate. This made them even more anxious.
However, when the battle on the third arena ended, the contestants in the other three arenas started to get anxious.
They didn't want to be eliminated, but they knew that only one person could advance to the semifinals. The remaining one would definitely be eliminated.
Rules were rules. They wouldn't let you advance just because you lost in this arena and were stronger than the winner of the other arena.
No matter how strong you were, if you lost in this arena, you would be eliminated and become a loser. You wouldn't even have the chance to participate in the Grand Competition.
Because of the age limit, everyone only had one chance to participate in the Grand Competition of the Nine Families. If they missed this chance, they wouldn't have another chance.
Therefore, almost everyone who came to participate in the Grand Competition of the Nine Families hoped that they could last until the end and become the one admired by the nine families.
However, it was precisely because everyone thought so that only a few people succeeded in the end. If they didn't have the strength and luck, they would be eliminated eventually.
There were still five people left in the arenas. They were Ji Tian and Guan Zhixin from the Ji Family, Wu Chenggang from the Situ Family, Nangong Jue from the Nangong Family, Chen Hongyuan from the Chen Family, and Jiang Haoran from the Jiang Family.
However, the situation in these three arenas was unpredictable. Although the battles in many arenas hadn't ended, it was already clear who would win and who would be eliminated.
Boom!
Just at this time, a loud noise suddenly came from the second arena. Everyone turned their gazes towards the second arena.
Suddenly, countless swords appeared in Ji Tian's hands. It was a dazzling sight. It was also at this moment that Jiang Haoran of the Jiang Family was defeated by Ji Tian and was forced to retreat.
Jiang Haoran's swordplay was known for its speed, but when Ji Tian suddenly changed his method, so many swords appeared at the same time. He couldn't tell if those extra swords were real or fake. But no matter what, with so many swords, no matter how fast he was, it was difficult for him to fight four hands with two fists, and he was defeated in one move.
When he was about to crawl up from the ground and continue to persevere, Ji Tian had already appeared in front of him and thrust his sword at him. It was as if there were ten thousand swords attacking him, catching him completely off guard.
With a "peng" sound, he was once again knocked to the ground by his opponent!
However, at this moment, Ji Tian leaped up and held his sword in a reverse grip. He descended from the sky and stabbed at Jiang Haoran.
At this moment, a gigantic sword shadow wrapped around the longsword in Ji Tian's hand. Everyone could see Ji Tian stabbing down from the sky with a gigantic sword shadow. That aura seemed as though it was going to pierce through the earth.
"I admit defeat!" Seeing this sword, Jiang Haoran's expression changed drastically. In the face of such a powerful sword, he no longer had any ability to resist.
At this critical moment, he hurriedly shouted the three words that he didn't want to say the most!
When Ji Tian heard that his opponent had admitted defeat, he quickly withdrew his sword aura. The gigantic sword shadow that had wrapped around his longsword suddenly disappeared.
However, Ji Tian didn't immediately withdraw his longsword. Instead, he continued to stab the longsword that didn't have sword aura, but it stopped half an inch in front of Jiang Haoran's forehead.
This was because he didn't completely trust Jiang Haoran. In this world, there were many people who didn't keep their words. Although he didn't want to kill people at the Nine Clan Competition, he still had to be vigilant.
If Jiang Haoran went back on his word, at least he wouldn't have to worry about the other party suddenly attacking him.
Although Jiang Haoran shouted those three words in a moment of desperation, he knew that he really didn't have a chance this time when he saw his opponent's sword pointed at his forehead.
Although he was very unwilling, he knew very well that if he didn't admit defeat in that situation just now, he would definitely be seriously injured even if he didn't die.
At this point, it was obviously not very wise to take this risk again.
Situ Yongwen's victory over Nangong Ke on the third ring had made him anxious all of a sudden. However, he didn't expect that his momentary absent-mindedness would cause the rhythm of the battle that he had found with great difficulty to be suddenly disrupted.
As a result, he had completely failed before he could fully understand the situation.
Regarding the current situation, he could only sigh and regret in his heart. He had completely lost.
"I lost!" Jiang Haoran said with certainty once again.
He knew that he wouldn't have another chance. Besides, even if he hadn't inadvertently absent-minded just now, he might not have been able to block Ji Tian's attack because he had already tried his best.
"This is already a predetermined outcome!" Ji Tian said faintly.
Facing this outcome, he didn't feel too happy, as if everything was within his expectations.
Although there were some twists and turns in the process, the final outcome had never changed. In his eyes, his enemy was Situ Yongwen from the Situ Family, but now it seemed that there was an additional Nangong Jue.
Of course, this would have to wait until Nangong Jue defeated Guan Zhixin from the Ji Family.
Regarding the Celestial Artifact in Guan Zhixin's hands, he was actually very surprised. Naturally, he didn't know that it was the Demon Slaying Sword passed down by their ancestor, Emperor Yellow. He was just surprised that Guan Zhixin actually had an Celestial Artifact.
However, even so, even though the two of them were in a draw, he still thought that Nangong Jue had a higher chance of winning.
Even so, he still hoped that Guan Zhixin could perform better. If he could defeat Nangong Jue, it would naturally be the best thing that could happen.
After all, Guan Zhixin was from the Ji Family. If he advanced and Nangong Jue was eliminated, not only would he have one less strong opponent, but the Ji Family would also have a chance of getting into the top three.
Moreover, if Guan Zhixin could defeat another person, he would also be able to occupy a place in the top three. In that case, the Ji Family would occupy two places in the top three, which was naturally a happy thing.
