Nangong Ziyue frowned and tried to salvage the situation. She stopped clashing head-on with Li Tianhua and tried to use techniques to obtain victory.
However, it was already too late. Nangong Ziyue had already lost the initiative. Li Tianhua had already grasped the rhythm of the match; it was not something she could change.
In the end, Nangong Ziyue could only stake everything on one throw. She punched with her incomplete state and executed the Immortal Mountains and Rivers, trying to decide victory in one move.
"Twin Dragons Playing with a Pearl!"
Li Tianhua smiled faintly. Victory was in his grasp, so he executed the best move of the Coiling Dragon Spear Technique. The tip of the spear trembled and sent out two spear lights. They turned into two ferocious coiling dragons and clashed with Nangong Ziyue's fists.
The coiling dragons roared ferociously and the incomplete state of mountains and rivers shattered. Nangong Ziyue took ten steps back and helplessly admitted defeat.
A golden light flashed and snatched away some of Nangong Ziyue's Luck. Li Tianhua's golden dragon also broke out of the jade. It was twenty-five meters long; its Luck was also at the peak.
"Fiftieth match: Xiao Chen versus Bai Zhan!"
This was the last match of the thirteenth round, as well as the last match of the day. It was finally Xiao Chen's turn to fight. Furthermore, his opponent was someone he was "familiar with."
When Xiao Chen saw Bai Zhan walk up to the dueling ring, a murderous intent flashed in his eyes. Then, he walked up the dueling ring with heavy steps.
Bai Zhan felt very complicated in his heart. Originally, he thought that after merging ice and fire, he would be able to defeat Xiao Chen and wash away his previous humiliation. Who knew, Xiao Chen's improvement was even greater than his. Even Gong Yangyu lost to Xiao Chen.
Gong Yangyu was much stronger than Bai Zhan. Even though Bai Zhan felt somewhat dissatisfied, he had to admit this fact. Right now, Xiao Chen was stronger than Bai Zhan. Furthermore, Xiao Chen was not just stronger by one or two levels.
However, when Bai Zhan saw Xiao Chen ascend the dueling ring, the dissatisfaction in his eyes immediately vanished. He smiled and said, "Xiao Chen, congratulations. You have obtained consecutive victories and have not lost a single match. It looks like you will definitely make it into the top ten."
Maintaining his silence, Xiao Chen's killing intent brewed in his heart. Crystallized Yuan Qi, which was like a solid substance, wandered around his body. All kinds of killing moves could be launched at any time.
The smile on Bai Zhan's face became even wider as he continued, "Unfortunately, no matter how strong you are, you will not be able to protect your friends. After one hundred battles, your friends, Kim Tae-ho, Bai, Murong Chong, Ding Fengchou, and Chu Mu, will meet me. "
"Their end will be as terrible as Zuo Mo's. All of this is because of you. Because of you, Xiao Chen, they ended up like this. Because you offended me, none of them will have a good ending. "
Since he could not hurt Bai Zhan, he vented his anger on Bai Zhan's friends. Bai Zhan did not care about his identity as a genius at all. Such a character was no different from scum.
The killing intent in Xiao Chen's heart was monstrous. He said coldly, "Are you done?"
Seeing that Xiao Chen was angry, Bai Zhan's smile became even crazier. "Ha ha ha ha! What's wrong? Are you angry and want to hit me? Unfortunately, you cannot do so. You can only watch as your friends get tortured by me, one by one. I admit … ah! "
I admit defeat. However, before I could say the word 'admit defeat', Bai Zhan cried out miserably and failed to admit defeat.
It was Xiao Chen who made his move. The instant he spoke, he executed the Lightning Evasion. An electric light flashed, and he arrived before Bai Zhan.
Xiao Chen's Vital Qi surged as he executed the Berserk Dragon Fist on Bai Zhan's chest. He swallowed the last word he wanted to say.
In the Wind Cloud Platform, after one side admitted defeat, the other side had to stop attacking. This was a hard and fast rule. No one could break it, not even Sima Lingxuan.
This was Bai Zhan's plan. He wanted to admit defeat and infuriate Xiao Chen. Even if he could not defeat him, he wanted to disgust him.
However, Bai Zhan had not expected Xiao Chen to have such a strange Magic Technique. Xiao Chen appeared before Bai Zhan in an instant.
Bai Zhan did not have much time to think. He moved his hands, wanting to force Xiao Chen back temporarily and then admit defeat.
A cold wind gathered on his left hand and a surging flame appeared on his right hand. This was Bai Zhan's signature move, the Icy Flame Palm.
One was ice and one was fire. When the cold and heat alternated, the opponent would feel extremely uncomfortable. Even cultivators stronger than Bai Zhan would have to be cautious when dealing with such a situation.
"Breaking Armor! Seizing the Heart!"
Xiao Chen clenched his right fist and executed the Breaking Armor Stance. A sharp azure shockwave with the Breaking Armor attribute scattered Bai Zhan's Icy Flame Palm like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves.
Xiao Chen's left hand formed a claw and executed the Seizing the Heart. An azure dragon claw appeared on his five fingers and shattered the Icy Flame Palm that Bai Zhan sent out.
With boundless killing intent, Xiao Chen clawed at Bai Zhan's chest. If Xiao Chen managed to get close to him, Bai Zhan would die without a doubt. He would not even have the chance to speak.
Bai Zhan's complexion paled, and he felt a great panic in his heart. At this critical moment, he performed exceptionally well. He pressed his palms together, and the ice and raging fire Essence in his body quickly merged.
As the cold wind howled on the vast Wind Cloud Platform, it actually blew out a hurricane containing flames. Ice and fire merged perfectly.
Wave of Raging Ice Flames!
With a roar, Bai Qi's hands moved up and down, forming a right angle. The ice and fire energy beams intertwined and shot towards Xiao Chen.
Bai Zhan did not hope to injure Xiao Chen with this move. He only hoped to delay him for a few seconds, giving him the opportunity to admit defeat.
However, he was disappointed. Xiao Chen did not give him any chance. His right hand was on the hilt of his saber. Xiao Chen unleashed his peak Small Perfection saber intent. The crystal Essence surging in his body gushed out with his saber.
Xiu!
With the support of the saber intent, the incredibly sharp crystal saber Qi became even sharper. With a 'ka ca' sound, the saber Qi easily chopped the ice and fire shockwaves in half. Furthermore, it was extremely accurate, right at the point where the ice and fire merged.
The crystal-like electricity leaped around the saber Qi. It broke through Bai Zhan's protective Essence and left a horrifying wound on his chest; it was so deep that bones could be seen.
A strong lightning-attributed Essence entered the wound and poured into Bai Zhan's meridians, causing them to explode.
Under Xiao Chen's saber strike without holding back, Bai Zhan's meridians ruptured. He was in unbearable pain. Bai Zhan rolled on the ground as he screamed; he could not even form a complete sentence.
Xiao Chen had already placed Bai Zhan on the list of people he had to kill. However, he could not make a move now. Otherwise, he might bring trouble to the Heavenly Saber Pavilion in the future.
Bai Zhan's meridians were crippled. Even if he had Spirit Pills and Immortal Medicines, he would not be able to recover his strength in a short time. He would not be able to threaten Xiao Chen's friends. If Bai Zhan was unlucky and could not find a Spirit Pill to treat his meridians, he would be crippled for life.
Normally, Xiao Chen looked very peaceful, not saying a word. He rarely got angry and rarely killed people.
However, dragons had reverse scales. If one touched them, one would die. Xiao Chen had a reverse scale as well. Whoever dared to threaten his friends and family would suffer a blow a hundredfold or even a thousandfold. No matter who it was, regardless of whether they were a super genius or a great sect backing them, Xiao Chen would not hold back.
"Xiu!"
The jade pendant at Bai Zhan's waist shot out a beam of golden light and entered Xiao Chen's jade pendant. The golden dragon, which had been impatient for a long time, immediately broke out of the jade pendant and circled above his head.
The golden dragon was fifteen meters long. Aside from Bai Qi and Sima Lingxuan, it was no weaker than the geniuses of the other eight Noble Clans.
Xiao Chen sensed for a while and discovered that the golden dragon above his head seemed to be affecting his mind unconsciously. It swept away the fatigue and exhaustion of the day, replenishing his Essence, Qi, and spirit.
The size of the golden dragon was not surprising to Xiao Chen. However, this additional function gave Xiao Chen a pleasant surprise.
"How surprising! Xiao Chen's golden dragon is fifteen meters long. This is his first time participating in the Five Nation Youth Competition. He did not obtain any Luck before this."
"Could it be that Xiao Chen really has the strength to fight against the eight Noble Clans? He is just a disciple of a small sect in the Great Qin Nation. The difference between him and the eight Noble Clans is too big."
"That might not be impossible. Think about it. From the start until now, Xiao Chen has not lost a single match in the elimination rounds or the ranking battles. He has not lost a single match or drawn a single match. He has a winning streak. Those who were thought to be able to end him always ended up losing to him in the end. "
"His trump cards are endless. It seems like he can't use them all. There is no way to figure them out. Of those newcomers, even Chu Chaoyun and Xuanyuan Zhantian, they all drew a match, ending their winning streaks. The only one with a winning streak from the start until now is Xiao Chen. "
"That is indeed the case. I did not think about it earlier. Now that I think about it, it seems like he is the only one with a winning streak from the start until now. After all, the seeded contestants only joined midway. They do not have as many consecutive victories as Xiao Chen. "
The first day of the ranking battles ended with Xiao Chen's golden dragon breaking out of the jade. This final battle allowed everyone to see Xiao Chen in a new light, the contestant with the most consecutive victories among the younger generation.
The long night finally passed amidst everyone's fervent anticipation. When the morning sun rose, the fourteenth round of the competition officially began.
As the rounds progressed, many more golden dragons broke out of the jade among the one hundred contestants. Several dozen golden dragons flew around in the air. Occasionally, they roared ferociously, baring their fangs and claws as they fought with each other.
Slowly, Xiao Chen discovered some patterns. If the opponent's golden dragon was stronger, the more Luck he absorbed. If the opponent was weaker, the amount of Luck he absorbed would be negligible.
For example, Sima Lingxuan was simply too strong. The other contestants' golden dragons were all weaker than his. Furthermore, he did not meet any strong opponents.
As a result, his golden dragon remained at about twenty-five meters, growing by less than a quarter. On the other hand, the golden dragons of the other Noble Clan disciples increased significantly.
Li Tian, Wang Quan, and Yue Chenxi's golden dragons reached twenty-three meters. Xuanyuan Zhantian's and Chu Chaoyun's golden dragons also reached twenty-five meters. They were only slightly behind the Noble Clan disciples and would soon catch up.
The one who caught up the fastest was Bai Qi. After defeating a few strong opponents, his golden dragon was already twenty-three meters long, only three meters behind Sima Lingxuan's.
Sima Lingxuan smiled faintly and did not care. His goal was a thirty-three-meter-long golden dragon. He wanted to reach the Prime rank and obtain overwhelming Luck, becoming the only true dragon in the Sky Dome Realm.
No matter how these people caught up, they would all end up benefiting him in the end. They would all be defeated by him and hand over their share of Luck.
"The thirty-fifth match: Xiao Chen versus Fang Yunfei."
This was the twenty-fifth round of the competition. In the earlier matches, Xiao Chen had not met with any strong opponents. Although he won all of them, his golden dragon only grew to fifteen meters. He was still some distance away from the top geniuses.
