The pillar of light that enveloped Feng Yunsheng had been fluctuating between brightness and darkness, appearing very unstable.
But now, as the draconic cries rang out incessantly, the pillar of light also became brighter and brighter, becoming more and more stable, no longer flickering.
Not as reserved as Meng Wan, Feng Yunsheng exerted force at this moment, domineering and sharp, causing the other participants of the Extreme Yin Bout to feel an oppressive aura.
Infinite Boundless Mountain's Ling Hui was the first to feel this, followed closely by the Heavenly Thunder Hall's Nian Lei.
Very quickly, the Sacred Sun Clan's Yun Xiuqing and Jade Sea City's Chen Suting also felt the surging pressure brought about by Feng Yunsheng.
The pillar of light that enveloped Feng Yunsheng became brighter and brighter, and its thickness also rapidly expanded in all directions.
Yun Xiuqing aside, even Chen Suting was overtaken by Feng Yunsheng!
As the Heavenly Dragon roared, it soared into the sky, crushing one opponent after another and leaving them behind.
Very quickly, even Turbid Wave Pavilion's Fan Qiu's expression became more serious as she looked seriously at Feng Yunsheng.
Meng Wan's gaze was fixed on Feng Yunsheng. A flash of light flashed in the depths of her eyes. There was joy and disappointment.
The light pillar that enveloped Feng Yunsheng gradually stabilised, slightly inferior to Chasing Wave Pavilion's Fan Qiu, yet having stably surpassed the Sacred Sun Clan's Yun Xiuqing and Jade Sea City's Chen Suting, she was ranked third amongst everyone.
When the onlookers saw this, they were shocked.
Others aside, to the martial practitioners of the Sacred Sun Clan, they all found it somewhat hard to believe.
Similarly participating in the Extreme Yin Bout for the first time, if Yun Xiuqing could be considered a secret weapon prepared by the Sacred Sun Clan, being able to shock the world with a single brilliant feat, it would not be completely unacceptable to others.
However, it was different for Feng Yunsheng. Feng Yunsheng who had been sentenced to death by everyone in the Sacred Sun Clan that year, her Extreme Yin Physique having been deemed useless, had actually really recovered her Extreme Yin power, at the same time advancing a step further.
After wasting so many years and starting over, he was actually able to reach such a level. It really shocked those who knew about it.
The Sunset Lord stared fixedly at Feng Yunsheng, as if he wanted to see through her.
His gaze was condensed to the point of seeming tangible, even somewhat touching the Extreme Yin Crown.
A chill suddenly arose within the Sunset Lord's heart, knowing that it was he who had incurred the backlash of the Extreme Yin Crown. He hurriedly retracted his gaze, his face momentarily rather gloomy.
Feng Yunsheng's outstanding performance was like a slap to the face of the Sacred Sun Clan.
If it was only the advancement of his martial arts cultivation and outstanding strength, although it would be embarrassing, it was still barely acceptable.
However, previously, when they judged that Feng Yunsheng's Extreme Yin Physique was completely crippled, the group of people checked her body one after another. In the end, they all swore solemnly. Looking at it now, it seemed like a joke.
All the Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners who were in the know felt a fiery pain on their faces at this moment.
Elder Meng had a gratified smile on his face as he nodded repeatedly. "It's not in vain. It's really not in vain. We didn't waste our efforts."
He swivelled his head to look at Yan Zhaoge, saying approvingly, "Zhaoge, it's all thanks to you ah."
Yan Zhaoge smiled, "Elder Meng overpraises me. It was all thanks to junior apprentice-sister Feng's own hard work as well as senior apprentice-aunt Fu's guidance."
These words were not entirely out of courtesy.
Looking at Feng Yunsheng, Yan Zhaoge also felt emotional. Now, she had finally stood once more on this stage that she had always yearned for, making her own people happy and her enemies vexed. However, how many people knew how much effort Feng Yunsheng had put in for this, how much suffering she had suffered?
Other things aside, the Cold Marrow Needles was one of the Seven Great Punishments alongside the Soul Lighting Lamp. It was a cruel torture that left one unable to live or die, a vicious method that could melt even a tough man who had been tempered a hundred times into molten iron.
And this punishment had not just been carried out once. Ever since a year ago, it had been carried out once every once in a while.
Just before setting off to participate in the fifth Extreme Yin Bout this time, Feng Yunsheng had just suffered it once more.
Looking at Feng Yunsheng who was slightly inferior to Fan Qiu, Yan Zhaoge said softly to himself, "The first round can be considered a literary competition. She still has some advantages that she has yet to display. In the second round of the martial competition, it will be even more shocking ah …"
At this moment, seeing Meng Wan, Fan Qiu and Feng Yunsheng respectively ranked in the top three, already occupying the three spots for advancement, Yun Xiuqing and Chen Suting could not help but feel rather anxious.
While no anxiousness could be seen on Yun Xiuqing's usually cold and expressionless face, her expression was clearly even colder, a cold light shining within her eyes.
Jade Sea City's Chen Suting's expression was grave to the extreme.
She was the victor of the second Extreme Yin Bout, also having once become the owner of the Extreme Yin Crown.
That feeling, after having tasted it once, she hoped that it would last forever.
The two began circulating their strength with all their might, communicating with the Extreme Yin Crown, strengthening the resonance between them and the Sacred Artifact, seeking to obtain more of its acknowledgement.
The two pillars of light that enveloped them shook slightly, also beginning to gradually grow thicker, brighter.
Seeing this, Meng Wan frowned slightly.
The Sunset Lord's expression also changed slightly as he said in a heavy tone, "Xiuqing, don't be hasty."
Before his words had landed, the tall mountain above Yun Xiuqing's head suddenly shook intensely.
Yun Xiuqing's face turned slightly pale. Then, she saw a crack appear at the bottom of that snowy peak that spurted flames and lava, the crack continuing upwards all the way to its peak.
The next moment, the tall snowy peak began to mightily collapse and shatter.
A hint of pain and unwillingness flashed through Yun Xiuqing's eyes.
She knew her own matters best. She was the clearest about her own situation.
Of the Maidens of Extreme Yin present, she was the youngest, her cultivation base the lowest. In other words, her foundation was the shallowest.
While her Extreme Yin power was dense and powerful, the supreme Extreme Yin Arts that she cultivated in also extraordinary, forcibly pushing it, squeezing out her potential, would result in her collapsing halfway through.
It was not that Yun Xiuqing was unaware of the risks involved, but she still wanted to try her best.
Sadly, her strides were too fast and too great, ultimately still not enough.
Looking at the lowered Yun Xiuqing, Meng Wan shook her head slightly, sighing.
The Sunset Lord and the other Sacred Sun Clan martial practitioners were all speechless as well.
The pillar of light that enveloped Yun Xiuqing gradually dimmed, finally vanishing.
The other six pillars of light also completely stabilised, and the first round of the Extreme Yin Bout thus came to an end.
In the end, Feng Yunsheng, Meng Wan, Fan Qiu, and Chen Suting passed. Next, they would compete against each other until the final winner was decided.
The Sunset Lord sorted out his thoughts and restrained his emotions. He turned to look at An Qinglin. "In the past, the second round has always been a competition between two people. This time, it's four people, and there will be three matches. Will the first two matches be based on the performance of the first round, with the first against the fourth and second against the third, or will the opponents be decided by drawing lots?"
An Qinglin said, "First against fourth, second against third."
Elder Meng, the Sunset Lord, and the others all nodded in agreement.
Feng Yunsheng glanced at Meng Wan, and Meng Wan looked back at her at the same time.
Then, Feng Yunsheng's gaze turned to the other side, looking at her next opponent, Turbid Wave Pavilion's Fan Qiu. (To be continued.)
