"What a mysterious girl. She's unusual. I can't see through her, I can't see through her at all..."
In the middle of the elders' seating area, the Head Elder, Second Elder, and Third Elder were also exchanging glances, their aged faces filled with confusion. Even they could not see through Qi Yexi at this moment.
The final top ten winners were out. General, Gu Xinyan, Ghost Child, Wu Que, and the others entering the top ten naturally did not surprise the crowd. Even Du Shaofu entering the top ten at this time was a matter of course for many people.
However, Tang Wu, Li Yuxiao, and especially Qi Yexi entering the top ten was a result that many people were both surprised and somewhat surprised.
However, this result was still acceptable. After all, no matter what finals it was, there would always be some dark horses running out.
"Weng..."
The low and melodious sound of the bell rang out once more, signifying the end of the finals.
The surrounding spectators were all discussing the final ten winners in the square. These ten people already had the right to enter the Heaven Martial Talisman realm where time was accelerated to comprehend for half a year. The benefits were obvious.
"Congratulations to the ten of you for entering the top ten today. However, in this Heaven Martial Assembly, a champion will emerge at the end and obtain a weapon personally refined by Vice Principal Zhuge using the Ethereal Spirit Heavenspan Vine. In the third round, the ten of you will draw lots to choose your opponents. The result will be half heaven's will and half strength."
Elder He Hu stepped forward and waved his hand. Two mentors, one male and one female, walked onto the square. In the female mentor's hands was a cyan secret half-sized box that was only big enough for one hand to reach in.
"There are jade lots in the box, each with a number from one to five. If you pick the jade lot with the same number, according to the rules of the competition, you can only choose four people to fight in pairs. The last two people will fight for the championship. Therefore, among the five people who win this round, the winner of the lot number one and the winner of the lot number five will fight one more round. As for which two people will fight in the end, it will depend on your luck. Now, let's draw lots." Elder He Hu's voice rang out. He did not say much. The rules were also very simple. His voice was laced with profound Qi, enough for everyone to hear. It was clear as day.
The male and female mentors stepped forward, and the ten of them began to draw lots. Guo Shaofeng was the first to reach into the lot box and take out a small jade token.
Du Shaofu was the second. He put his hand into the box and took out a jade card. This kind of matchup relied on half of one's luck and half of one's strength. Whether the opponent he chose was strong or weak, he would only know at the end. Therefore, Du Shaofu did not have any hesitation.
Next, the general was the third to pick a jade lot.
Du Shaofu held the jade tablet in his hand and opened it. On the jade tablet, there was a large red number '5' written on it.
"His luck is really extraordinarily good."
When he saw the number '5' written on the jade tablet, a bitter smile immediately surfaced on Du Shaofu's face. According to the rules that Elder He Hu had just mentioned, among the five people who won this round, the winner of the lot number one and the winner of the lot number five would have one more match. In the end, the four people who won the lot number two would fight each other. After that, the final two people would fight for the championship. Since he had gotten the number five, even if he won, he would have to fight one more match with the winner of the lot number one.
At the end, any one of the remaining people would have strength that was truly at the peak of the Martial Ranking. One more match would consume a lot of energy. Even if he won by a hair's breadth in the end, he would be at a great disadvantage in the next round. Whoever got the number one and number five would naturally have bad luck.
"The drawing of lots is complete. The ten of you can show your lot numbers." When Qi Ye Xi took out the last lot from the lot box, the male mentor said to the ten of them.
Hearing this, the ten of them opened their palms. In the middle of their palms, there was a lot on the jade tablet.
"Swish swish …"
At this moment, many people's gazes were focused on the lot numbers in the palms of the ten people.
Du Shaofu's gaze swept over, only to see that in the palm of Guo Shaofeng's hand, there was a number five jade slip. The two of them looked at each other, as bitter smiles appeared on their faces.
"Guo Shaofeng against Du Shaofu, General against Ye Feiyu, Gu Xinyan against Wu Que, Ghost Child against Qi Ye Xi, Li Yuxiao against Tang Wu!"
The male mentor's voice was mixed with profound energy. As the list of the next matches was spread out, the spectators in the surrounding square immediately began to discuss intensely.
In the crowd, Zhang Lu and Ouyang Shuang, who had lost in the first round, had already left the square. They stood together with Du Xiaoman, Du Xiaoqing, Han Chao and the others.
"The Cloud Chasing Swallow, Ye Feiyu, is probably going to lose. It will be difficult for him to win against the General." Zhang Lu looked at the ten people in the square. Her bright eyes were filled with anticipation for the next match.
"It will also be difficult for Qi Ye Xi to face Ghost Child. Ghost Child is not easy to deal with."
Bing Na seemed to be familiar with Zhang Lu, Ouyang Shuang and the others. She also gathered together and discussed.
"Li Yuxiao against Tang Wu. Their rankings were originally very close. Now, their rankings are about the same. It should be a true fierce battle. Gu Xinyan against Wu Que. Both of their cultivations are unfathomable. Wu Que is not easy to provoke. However, Gu Xinyan is also very strong. She has always been second on the Martial Ranking. This also shows her strength. Gu Xinyan should have a bigger advantage. "
Du Xiaoman looked at the ten people in the square. Her brows were slightly furrowed and her expression was serious.
"Sister Xiaoman, are you worried that he can't fight against Guo Shaofeng?" Ouyang Shuang asked.
"Guo Shaofeng has a Practitioner Weapon and is extremely strong. He is not easy to deal with." Du Xiaoman was worried for Du Shaofu.
"This time, no one will dare to laugh at my Weapon Department. Junior Du has entered the top ten. Let's see who dares to laugh at my Weapon Department." Tu Tong was clearly very excited.
In the square, the ten people looked at each other. Li Yuxiao looked at Du Shaofu and said, "You are number one, I am number five. If you and I can win, we will have a chance to fight in the next round."
"Don't treat me as if I don't exist. If you want to win, you can't even pass me." Tang Wu said to Li Yuxiao without holding back.
"We will only know after we try!"
On Li Yuxiao's smooth and white face, there was a red glow in his deep black eyes. His battle intent surged.
In front of the elders' seats, Elder He Hu said loudly again, "The ten of you will begin the battle. Whoever can take first place will depend on your true strength!"
"Weng!"
As Elder He Hu's voice fell, the melodious sound of the bell rang out again. The final battle for the championship of the ten began again.
"Whoosh whoosh …"
The ten figures flashed and scattered into five groups. They each faced their opponent. Waves of aura surged and rushed into the sky.
"Senior General, go!"
"Go, Senior Xinyan!"
"Go, Senior Du Shaofu!"
"…"
Loud shouts rang out. The ten of them all had many supporters. Their shouts gathered together and resounded through the clouds.
"Li Yuxiao, let's begin. Take out your Demon Extermination Sword!"
In the square, Tang Wu's black robe fluttered. The profound aura around his body surged. A circle of runes occupied the surrounding space, causing sand and pebbles to fly and faintly distort. The aura was no small matter. It shook one's soul.
"If you want me to use my Demon Extermination Sword, then let's see if your strength is enough!"
When Li Yuxiao's voice fell, his dark red robe fluttered. A red glow surged in his eyes. The demonic aura around him was no longer suppressed. It rushed into the sky. His hand seals changed. Suddenly, a series of finger seals swept out. He took the lead.
"Swish swish …"
Thirty-six finger seals streaked across the sky. The demonic aura overflowed. The light in the entire space suddenly darkened. The thirty-six finger seals crisscrossed. Only a blood-black light flickered. The devilish aura was terrifying. It made one's hair stand on end.
"Swish swish …"
The thirty-six finger seals seemed to be piercing through space. Accompanied by an unparalleled pressure, they suddenly enveloped all thirty-six acupoints around Tang Wu's body.
"Hmph. Thirty-six Demon Fingers are not bad. But it's not enough!"
Tang Wu shouted. Waves of runes surged like a storm. Accompanied by an unparalleled energy, they swept towards Li Yuxiao's thirty-six Demon Fingers.
"Rumble …"
As Li Yuxiao and Tang Wu exchanged blows, the whole place immediately erupted.
"We are going to fight again. Let's begin." Gu Xinyan floated in the air as if she was untainted by the mortal world. Her eyes bloomed with light.
"Let's begin!"
Wu Que floated in the air and smiled. Her beautiful temperament and Gu Xinyan's were like an angel and a devil.
The two beauties were the most eye-catching at this moment. Looking at them from afar was a visual pleasure.
"Swish swish!"
Two graceful figures, each drawing an arc, suddenly clashed with each other as fast as lightning.
The battle between the two women didn't have a huge impact. Instead, there were dazzling and graceful arcs in the air. Large amounts of runes shot into the sky and spread out.
"Although it's hard for me to win, I will still fight with all my strength. There is no one in Tianwu Academy who will back down!"
Ye Feiyu looked at the general in front of her. Her beautiful eyes were filled with determination. Profound Qi surged under her feet, and her figure soared through the sky like a swallow. Her speed was unpredictable and unimaginably fast.
"I will also fight with all my strength!"
As soon as the general finished her words, her imposing figure straightened. An invisible aura that could suppress mountains and rivers suddenly erupted from her body. She threw a punch at the blurry figure in front of her. Although it looked like a simple punch, it sealed the opponent's movements. The blurry figure could only face it head-on.
"I'll let you make the first move."
Ghost Baby looked at Qi Yexi and spoke gently. However, the aura on her body was faintly fluctuating. There was a hint of baleful aura that was sharp and intimidating.
"It doesn't matter who makes the first move. In any case, you can't do anything to me."
Qi Yexi's crafty eyes still carried a faint smile. However, there was a slight ripple between her brows. She said to Ghost Baby, "However, I don't like the aura on your body. It makes me feel uncomfortable."
