A bolt of extreme lightning fell from the Nine Heavens, piercing through the darkness. It seemed like it could even split the sky and earth into two halves. It was so sharp and cold that it pierced through everyone's soul.{}
A palm made of red, purple and black flames had just appeared when the surrounding space started to burn. A heatwave swept across the entire place, causing everyone's vision to distort.
The two of them had already taken out their last trump card. Only one move was needed to determine the winner.
"Boom!"
Under everyone's astonished gazes, the lightning and the giant palm collided, creating a thunderous explosion. The entire Imperial City was filled with a rumbling sound that lingered for a long time.
The whirlwind caused the scarlet and white barrier around the arena to inflate like a balloon, expanding into a semicircle shape. It seemed like it could explode at any time, shocking the people nearby and causing them to retreat again and again.
"Rumble! Rumble!"
"Swoosh! Swoosh!"
Above the arena, the whirlwind was unceasing, and muffled sounds were unceasing. A bolt of silver-white lightning fell straight down, cutting into the three-colored palm. It was stuck one-third of the way into the palm.
The lightning wanted to cut the three-colored palm, and the three-colored palm wanted to swallow the lightning. The two of them were in a stalemate once again.
It was a terrifying tug of war. The space rippled, visible to the naked eye, and ear-piercing noises resounded unceasingly. More than half of the people in the arena covered their ears.
The strong winds seemed to be testing the strength of the scarlet and white barrier. One wave after another, the barrier undulated like the waves of the sea.
Feng Hao held the Edgeless Sword with both hands, pressing it down hard. His arms were shaking slightly, as if he was enduring a great force.
The Kirin Arm rose high, and the muffled sound of thunder reverberated unceasingly. Feng Hao's face was ferocious. He clenched his teeth, and his eyes were filled with ruthlessness. Bean-sized beads of sweat rolled down his cheeks unceasingly.
He had given it his all.
On the other side, the flames on Cheng Nan's body seemed to have retracted. He appeared to be much more relaxed than Feng Hao. However, the occasional twitching of his lips told everyone that he was not completely free of pressure.
His outstretched hand was three-colored, and it was in the shape of a fist, as if he wanted to clench it tightly. However, he seemed to be stopped by something.
He had poured everything he had into this palm. Even with his Martial Ancestor Realm Four Viscera Realm cultivation, he was only able to barely block it.
The tug-of-war continued. The entire arena was filled with the howling of the wind. Apart from the swishing sounds of the arena, there were no other sounds.
Everyone nervously looked at the tri-colored palm, and even their hearts seemed to have calmed down.
Victory or defeat would be decided in this one move.
...
"Both of their talents are peerless geniuses. That Fenghao is the winner. If he had broken through to the First Viscera of the Martial Ancestor realm, there would be no suspense in this battle. Now, he is destined to lose!"
After Cheng Nan withstood the Thunderclap Strike, the Golden Regret Saint Emissary made his judgment.
"That's right. The difference in their realms is too great."
Xuan Yu sighed. His eyes were full of light as he said, "Three-colored flames … I'm afraid this move is not an ordinary martial technique, right?"
"Yes, it's a secret technique!"
The Golden Regret Saint Emissary was still watching the changes in the arena. He said calmly, "Using essence Qi to draw the flames from the outside world for his own use. It's a pity that the flames here are limited. If he was in a volcanic area, his power would be multiplied!"
"Yes."
Xuan Yu nodded slightly. He had already gathered power in his hand, ready to save Cheng Nan at any time.
...
Rumble! Rumble!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two of them were still in a stalemate. Cheng Nan's body was also trembling a little. His face could not help but twitch, and his face was red.
As for Feng Hao, he was in an even worse state.
He had almost reached the point of exhaustion. The Martial Origin Energy in his body was drained bit by bit, and almost all that was left was an empty shell.
Just as the last strand of Martial Origin Energy was drained from his Qilin Arm, a strange phenomenon appeared in his body.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The sound of flowing water rang out in his body. It was like a clear spring, watering the dry ground. In an instant, the Martial Origin Energy in his body was filled up again.
"It's heat energy again!"
Feng Hao was not surprised by the arrival of the heat energy.
After all, this was not the first time something like this had happened.
"Ha!"
Without hesitation, Feng Hao suddenly shouted. The Martial Origin Energy in his body surged and surged out. It passed through the Qilin Arm and burst out from Edgeless.
Swoosh!
Following which, the silver lightning bolt that was almost annihilated by the tri-colored palm suddenly burst forth with a dazzling light. Under Cheng Nan's astonished gaze, the silver lightning bolt directly sliced the palm in half and fell to the ground, leaving a bottomless crack on the arena. It was as if the entire arena had been sliced in half.
Swoosh!
The strong light cut the palm and pierced through it. Seeing the sharp and cold silver light, Cheng Nan was still in a daze. He was about to die.
"Quick, dodge it!"
Feng Hao could not stop himself. He shouted anxiously, his face full of panic.
"Bang!"
A figure flashed. In an instant, the Golden Sage Envoy appeared in front of Cheng Nan. He stretched out his arm, and the white light fell. He reached out and grabbed it. A muffled sound rang out, and a strong wind overflowed. His hand only shook slightly, but it did not even leave a white mark.
His cultivation was so terrifying!
After doing all this, he gave a deep smile to Fenghao, who had yet to regain his wits. With a leap, he returned to the high platform.
Both of them collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath. Their eyes were filled with joy.
"This round, Feng Hao wins!"
With Xuan Yu's announcement, the grand competition came to an end.
There were unexpectedly two champions, Feng Hao and the 'Demon'. This was the first time two people won the competition. However, no one felt that it was inappropriate. In their hearts, the champion was actually Feng Hao.
After all, he had too many halos.
As a Martial Spirit Realm cultivator, he defeated all the monstrous geniuses. Even a monstrous genius like Cheng Nan was defeated by him. No one knew how he did it. That last attack was too strange.
He was originally exhausted, so where did he get his stamina from?
Moreover, his identity as an Earth Level Alchemist directly pushed him to the highest point.
As for Cheng Nan, he was only defeated by Feng Hao and the 'Demon'. Naturally, he was ranked second. The third was also one of the monstrous geniuses, Tong Chong of the Yue Li Kingdom!
The four of them had already obtained the qualification to enter the Saint King Mountain. After entering the palace tomorrow to receive the award, the Golden Sage Envoy would bring them there.
