"The Purple Cloud Palace?"
"He's going up against a genius disciple of the Purple Cloud Palace in the second round? This … "
Wang Que's gaze landed on Tsing Hui with a hint of worry in his eyes. "Dongyang, just admit defeat when the time comes. Even if you lose, you can still get into the top ten of the losers' bracket."
"Admit defeat?"
Tsing Hui frowned. "I want to know if the top ten winners of the losers' bracket can compete for the top three."
"Top three?"
Wang Que was slightly taken aback. "Elder Dongyang wants to compete for the top three? That's impossible. The top three can only be decided from Tonghuo, Boundless Dao, and Nantian Dou. Whether it's Immortal Arts or Secret Treasures, they're all much stronger than ordinary experts. Even the peerless geniuses cultivated by the Purple Cloud Palace, the Primeval Sect, and the Heavenly Court can't beat them unless a miracle happens … "
"You just need to answer my question."
"Sure. Anyone in the top ten is qualified to compete for the top three."
"I understand."
Tsing Hui said and leaped onto the platform.
Seeing Tsing Hui, Gouchen, who represented the Purple Cloud Palace, was slightly taken aback. He then chuckled with a faint arrogance on his face. "I know you, Dongyang. You originally wanted to join the Purple Cloud Palace and use our name to participate in the Fortune Pageant. However, your cultivation was too weak at that time, only at the Blue Netherworld Realm. You didn't have the qualifications to participate in the Fortune Pageant, so you were rejected by the upper echelons of the Purple Cloud Palace. But because you're the Son of Chaos and contributed an item with four Daoist Rhymes, Palace Master Xiang Hong of the Central Palace found a compromise for you and allowed you to participate in the Fortune Pageant under the name of the Burning Sky Sect.
Am I right? "After he finished speaking, the Purple Cloud Palace's genius didn't give Tsing Hui any time to speak. He waved his hand and said," I'm the true seed of the Purple Cloud Palace. I'm a peerless genius who has cultivated True Essence before the age of 80. Even if you've broken through to the Prominent Divine Stage in this year, you're still no match for me. You should just surrender. Otherwise, don't blame me for teaching you a lesson on behalf of the Purple Cloud Palace's headquarters on Tianzhu Mountain. I'll let you understand the immensity of heaven and earth. "
Tsing Hui glanced at the arrogant genius of the Purple Cloud Palace, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. However, he seemed to have thought of something after a while. He snorted and said, "Then I'll wish you, the peerless genius of the Purple Cloud Palace, a complete victory. You'll be ranked first in this Fortune Pageant."
After he finished speaking, he said to the Transformative Realm arbitrator, "I surrender!"
"As expected of an unorthodox person who tried to curry favor with our Purple Cloud Palace halfway through! You have no respect for your elders! "
Gouchen seemed to have heard the dissatisfaction in Tsing Hui's words. He immediately waved his sleeve, snorted, and turned to leave.
"I want to be ranked first. We'll have a chance to compete. I hope you won't lose too quickly."
Tsing Hui looked at Gouchen gloomily as he turned to leave. There was a hint of anger in his heart.
Whoosh!
In a flash, Tsing Hui landed in the Fentian Sect's camp.
Wang Que saw the dissatisfaction on Tsing Hui's face and hurriedly comforted him, "Elder Dongyang, we don't have to lower ourselves to the same level as these disciples from Tianzhu Mountain. These disciples spend most of their time cultivating in Tianzhu Mountain and don't know the ways of the world. Plus, many elders have placed high hopes on them and doted on them. Over time, they've developed this arrogant attitude. After today's Fortune Pageant, they'll understand that there's always someone better out there."
Tsing Hui glanced at Wang Que and nodded, but didn't say anything.
The competition continued.
Twenty-five out of fifty, thirteen out of twenty-five, and seven out of thirteen. It took a total of two days. On the third day, it was time for the forty-three people in the Losers Group to challenge each other.
Before the battles of the losers bracket began, the Purple Cloud Palace did not say anything. Clearly, they believed that the situation was within their control. As for the possibility of Qing Xu becoming displeased with the matter of the Gouchen, they seemed to have completely ignored it.
After all, in their opinion, it wasn't a big deal for Tsing Hui, who was in the Prominent Divine Stage, to surrender to Gouchen, who was in the True Energy Stage.
Compared to the Winners Group, although there were many powerhouses in the Losers Group who were unlucky enough to encounter the six seeded contestants and were defeated, overall, they were still weaker.
Forty-three into twenty-two, and twenty-two into eleven. Tsing Hui defeated his opponents without a hitch.
After personally witnessing the strange immortal techniques, in order to ensure that nothing went wrong, Huang Xiaolong summoned his Golden Crow Physique and defeated his opponents with lightning speed. Even if his opponents were members of the Losers Group, Huang Xiaolong didn't dare to underestimate them. After all, he knew too little about the Fortune Mainland's immortal techniques. In order to prevent himself from failing miserably and missing out on the Fortune Divine Jade, Huang Xiaolong had no choice but to deal with every battle with the mentality of a lion hunting a rabbit.
On the next day, when it was time to advance from eleven to six, Tsing Hui was lucky enough to get a bye. Relying on this opportunity, he directly entered the top six. As long as he won one more battle, he would be able to obtain one of the three spots and obtain the qualification to comprehend the Fortune Divine Jade.
At this moment, even Yan Xin, Chen Shuo, Wang Que, and the others couldn't help but feel nervous.
"This is the last battle. Whether or not we can obtain the qualification to comprehend the Fortune Divine Jade will depend on this battle. In this battle, the only one who can truly suppress Dong Yang is Linghu Yu. As long as he doesn't encounter Linghu Yu, Dong Yang's chances of winning are still above seventy percent."
Wang Que looked at the six opponents and said solemnly.
"Fortunately, it's Linghu Yu and not Cheng Ye. Although Linghu Yu has the Fire Aegis Bead, his divine ability is limited to the Prominent Saint Realm. Dong Yang, if you feel that you can't defeat your opponent, use the killing move you comprehended in the Heaven Abandoning Valley. It will definitely turn the tide."
Burning Sky Sect's Old Ancestor Chen Shuo said seriously.
At the end of the day, Qing Xu represented their Burning Heaven sect. If they could win the Fortune Banquet in the name of the Burning Heaven sect, the reputation of the Burning Heaven sect would definitely skyrocket. At that time, they would be able to gain a firm foothold among the first-rate sects and even develop into a powerful first-rate sect.
"Don't worry, I know what to do."
Tsing Hui said.
He had to win this round, even if he had to use the Divine Art at the crucial moment.
As the battle began, two figures stepped onto the platform.
Seeing one of them, Wang Que, Yan Xin, and Chen Shuo were overjoyed. "It's Linghu Yu. Linghu Yu is on the stage. Dong Yang doesn't have to fight with Linghu Yu anymore. Great."
Tsing Hui's expression didn't change as he looked at the remaining three people. Any one of them could be his next opponent.
However, he was slightly startled when he saw a man among the three who was glaring at him with anger.
Qihuang Sect's Miao Daozi?
He didn't expect the Qihuang Sect's expert, who lost to him in the first round, to be able to stand out among the forty-three people in the loser group.
Linghu Yu's battle lasted for less than half an hour before it ended.
As the referee of the place of the Outer Fringe announced the start of the second round, Tsing Hui's participant token suddenly vibrated.
At the same time, Tsing Hui's participant token vibrated, Miao Daozi took out his own token and looked at Tsing Hui.
Qing Xu smiled when he saw this. He directly landed on the platform and said to Miao Daozi who had also leapt over, "What a coincidence."
"Four days ago, I was caught off guard and was defeated by your sneak attack. I wasted so many days in the loser group. Today, I'll show you my true strength."
Miao Daozi said angrily.
"Caught off guard? Now, are you ready? "
Tsing Hui said with a smile.
"Spring Wind and Rain!"
As soon as the Transcendent expert announced the start of the battle, Miao Daozi immediately retreated and performed the Immortal Art he had mastered.
With the Spring Wind and Rain blessing him, not only did it give him a decent defense, it also gave him an extremely strong recovery ability.
Unfortunately …
It was useless.
"Rumble!"
Behind Qing Xu, it was like a scorching sun had suddenly erupted. Endless light and heat filled the entire platform in a single moment, so bright that the experts at the Spirit Uniting realm and Green Netherworld realm basically struggled to open their eyes. Within the endless light, a strand of Great Yang Truefire blazed out, causing space to distort and the ground to turn into glass. It directly landed on Miao Daozi. Miao Daozi had only just pulled out a Class 6 armor after using Spring Wind and Rain, but it was directly incinerated by the Grand Sun Truefire. The scorching Grand Sun Truefire continued to burn Miao Daozi's body without slowing down at all, immediately making him cry out in pain. His aura rapidly melted away like snow under the scorching sun.
"Not good!"
At this critical moment, the four Adjudicators reacted extremely quickly, charging onto the battlefield to save Miao Daozi from the fate of being burned to ash. At the same time, they used their own methods to try and remove the Grand Sun Trueflame.
However, under their True Essence and methods, although the True Sun Fire was stopped, it was still burning fiercely and could not be extinguished in a short time.
Thwish!
Tsing Hui stretched out a hand, drawing out the Grand Sun Trueflame and sending it into the Golden Crow behind him.
As the Golden Crow vanished into Tsing Hui's body, the blinding light that had illuminated the platform rapidly faded away.
"Can we announce the victor now?"
"That's the Grand Sun Trueflame, right? It is indeed extremely overbearing. Although there are people in our Great Sun Divine Palace who have also cultivated the Great Sun Primordial Fire, but compared to your Great Sun Primordial Fire, it is still inferior by a notch.
After personally experiencing the power of the Grand Sun Trueflame, the Transcendent realm expert in charge of the Adjudicators looked at Tsing Hui with a slightly different gaze.
Just now, when they had attacked with all their strength, they had only been able to suppress the light of the Grand Sun Trueflame and had not been able to remove it from Miao Daozi's body. This scene made them understand that this man in his Golden Crow Battle Form could threaten their lives.
"It's just a small trick, not worth mentioning."
"We can conclude that Miao Daozi is unable to withstand the burning of the Grand Sun Trueflame. Therefore, you have won this round. Congratulations, you have earned the right to comprehend the Fortune Divine Jade."
"Our Palace Master, Xing Ji, would like to invite Brother Dong Yang to a gathering at Dongyan Palace tonight. What do you think, Brother Dong Yang?" the Transcendent Realm expert said without hesitation. Then, he sent a voice transmission to Dong Yang.
