"Next, let's welcome today's challenger, Yu Luo from the Golden Feather Clan!"
At the black-robed old man's announcement, a cultivator who also looked quite young walked onto the stage with light steps.
Although he was not human, Yu Luo from the Golden Feather Clan looked like a human cultivator.
"Yu Luo is also at the peak of the late-stage Holy God Realm and comes from the powerful Golden Feather Clan. Therefore, we have reason to believe that his battle with Chen Xiao will be a close match. There is a betting pool over there and we welcome everyone to place their bets."
The old man pointed to a corner of the spectator stand and said, "If you place your bets on Yu Luo, you will receive five times the compensation and lose everything if he wins. If you place your bets on Chen Xiao, you will receive ninety percent of the compensation and lose everything if he wins. If they are tied, those who bet on Yu Luo will receive double the compensation and those who bet on Chen Xiao will lose everything."
The cultivators on the spectator stand had already begun to move toward the betting pool.
Chen Xiao and Yu Luo's battle did not begin immediately. Both of them waited patiently on the stage.
A full two hours passed. After everyone had placed their bets, the old man said, "Sorry for the long wait. The bets have been closed. Let the battle begin!"
As soon as the old man finished speaking, the cultivator called Chen Xiao took the initiative to attack.
Chen Xiao's body swayed and he appeared beside Yu Luo as if he had teleported. He slashed his palm horizontally at Yu Luo's neck.
Yu Luo seemed to be very uncomfortable with Chen Xiao's way of attacking without warning. In a hurry, he could only tilt his head and dodge the attack.
However, Chen Xiao turned his palm into a claw and grabbed at Yu Luo's shoulder.
Yu Luo also got into position. He leaned back and dodged his opponent's attack again. Then, he kicked his feet forward and quickly retreated thirty feet away.
Chen Xiao's attacks were very continuous. He had also advanced thirty feet and punched at his opponent's chest with both fists.
Yu Luo had already taken out a dark golden dagger and slashed it at Chen Xiao's fists.
Chen Xiao's attack was extremely fast. Logically speaking, his fists should have been sliced by the sharp dagger, but he quickly turned his fists into palms and, with one above and one below, caught Yu Luo's dagger between his palms.
Yu Luo slashed her knife horizontally with great force. Chen Xiao was able to catch Yu Luo's sharp knife. Not only did it prove that he was fast and steady, it also showed his courage and confidence.
Then, Chen Xiao quickly flipped his palm and kicked Yu Luo's calf.
Yu Luo raised his leg to block. When his legs collided, he felt a burst of pain.
Chen Xiao's kick was powerful.
While Yu Luo's calf was in pain and her lower body was unstable, Chen Xiao had already seized the opportunity to snatch Yu Luo's dagger away.
The confrontation between the two sides was completed in the time it took for a spark to fly off a piece of flint. Ordinary cultivators could not even see the entire process of the battle clearly.
Chen Xiao's attacks were very coherent and methodical. It was impossible to guard against them when they were executed in one go.
Yu Luo's defense was rather decent, but with just that bit of ability, she would definitely not be able to beat Chen Xiao.
Since Yu Luo dared to challenge Chen Xiao, he naturally had some skills. When his dagger was snatched away, a pair of golden wings immediately appeared on his back.
With a flash of golden light, Yu Luo dodged Chen Xiao's follow-up attack and appeared behind him.
Without using any Dharma treasures, Yu Luo's hands turned into a pair of golden claws. He rushed forward and clawed at Chen Xiao's back.
Yu Luo's attack was not slow either. Chen Xiao could not dodge his attack.
However, just as Yu Luo's claws were about to hit Chen Xiao, Chen Xiao suddenly stomped on the stage with one foot. A circle of invisible waves suddenly surged out. Not only did it block Yu Luo's attack, but it also bounced Yu Luo's body far away.
Chen Xiao quickly turned around but did not take advantage of the situation. Instead, he hooked his finger at Yu Luo, indicating for him to attack.
Yu Luo did not hesitate. He flapped his wings and appeared on Chen Xiao's left side in an instant. Then, he clawed at Chen Xiao's head.
Yu Luo's attack was still extremely fast. Even Chen Xiao could not dodge it. However, Chen Xiao did not seem to have any intention of dodging. A transparent wave surged out from his body again. However, this transparent wave did not shake Yu Luo away. Instead, it tied Yu Luo's claws together like a rope.
Yu Luo retreated in shock. However, he was shocked to find that no matter how hard he struggled, he could not shake off the transparent rope.
While Yu Luo was still in shock, Chen Xiao's palm had already landed on his chest.
Chen Xiao's strength was extremely strong. When his palm landed, Yu Luo spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backward.
Chen Xiao chased after him, but Yu Luo's wings flapped a few times. Not only did they shift his position constantly, but they also created a golden whirlwind.
The golden whirlwinds appeared in all directions, but they quickly surrounded Chen Xiao with him at the center.
The golden whirlwind sealed off all of Chen Xiao's escape routes. Chen Xiao had no choice but to take it head-on. His entire body was then enveloped by a transparent wave.
When the golden whirlwind approached, the transparent wave suddenly exploded, blasting all of the whirlwind into golden light.
At that moment, Yu Luo's entire body glowed with golden light. It was unknown what kind of magic he had used, but he actually managed to break the transparent rope.
However, what Yu Luo did not expect was for Chen Xiao's body to surge with a transparent wave. In an instant, it had covered the entire arena.
The transparent wave was able to borrow the power of heaven and earth to completely seal off the small space in the arena.
Yu Luo tried his best to resist. The golden light on his body was extremely dazzling. However, he could no longer use his speed. His movement speed was slower than an ordinary person's.
Chen Xiao was completely unaffected by the transparent wave. In a flash, he appeared beside Yu Luo and slapped his palm hard on Yu Luo's shoulder.
Yu Luo spat out another mouthful of blood. Just as his body was about to fall off the arena, he barely managed to stop himself.
After stabilizing himself, Yu Luo's pair of golden wings suddenly exploded, turning into golden feathers.
The countless golden feathers were like sharp swords. They weaved through the transparent wave that enveloped the arena. Not only were they destroying the power of the transparent wave, but they were also attacking Chen Xiao from all sides.
Chen Xiao was not afraid. His body moved continuously. At the same time, he continuously attacked the golden feathers that were close to him. Every time he attacked, a few feathers would be destroyed.
While resisting the attacks of the golden feathers, Chen Xiao's body continued to release transparent waves, causing the transparent wave in the arena to become stronger and stronger.
When all of the golden feathers were destroyed, Chen Xiao's clothes were tattered. His body was also scratched by the golden feathers. Although it looked like he was at a disadvantage, in reality, they were only superficial wounds. It did not affect his overall combat ability much.
The golden light on Yu Luo's body became more and more dazzling. Unfortunately, the transparent wave continued to shrink, squeezing him from all directions.
Yu Luo probably wanted to unleash another big move. However, under the suppression of the transparent wave, the golden light on his body became dimmer and dimmer until it was completely extinguished.
At that moment, Yu Luo was tightly sealed by the solid and strange transparent wave. He could not move at all. He could not even use his remarkable abilities.
Yu Luo was clearly defeated. However, before he could even open his mouth to admit defeat, Chen Xiao was already in front of him. Chen Xiao stabbed his palm toward Yu Luo's lower abdomen.
Chen Xiao's palm was extremely sharp. It instantly pierced Yu Luo's abdomen.
When Chen Xiao pulled his hand back, there was a small golden bird in his palm.
The small golden bird should be Yu Luo's Divine Infant. After it was captured, Chen Xiao used a transparent wave to seal it. Then, he put it away in his storage treasure as if there was no one around.
Without the Divine Infant, Yu Luo completely lost the ability to fight back. Under the pressure of the transparent wave, his body was crushed into a ball of flesh that released a weak golden light.
When Chen Xiao retracted the transparent waves, the mass of flesh and blood turned into a golden light that filled the sky, spreading throughout the entire Underground Arena.
A peak late Saint God expert of the Golden Feather clan who possessed great talent and a very promising future had died just like that.
However, among the cultivators in the stands, those who bet on Yu Luo began to curse loudly, while those who bet on Chen Xiao naturally cheered loudly. None of them were surprised or surprised by Yu Luo's death, and none of them questioned or criticized Chen Xiao's ruthlessness.
"None of Chen Xiao's opponents have been able to walk out of the arena alive. Not only is he powerful, but he's also far too vicious," Zhang Fang said without changing his expression.
"The transparent wave he released is a very powerful and strange ability. If we can't get through it, we won't be able to defeat him," Xiao Lingyu said with narrowed eyes.
"Yu Luo's not bad. There aren't many cultivators who can make Chen Xiao use the transparent wave," He Tai said indifferently.
Both Zhang Fang and He Tai seemed to be certain that they would be able to defeat Chen Xiao.
"It's a pity that you're an Immortal Ascension expert. Otherwise, you could have fought Yu Luo," Zhang Fang said regretfully.
To Zhang Fang and He Tai, Xiao Lingyu must be an Immortal Ascension expert to be able to subdue them so easily.
"Although I haven't reached the Immortal Ascension stage, I won't easily fight someone as powerful as Chen Xiao to the death." Xiao Lingyu shook his head with a smile.
"You haven't reached the Immortal Ascension stage?"
Zhang Fang and He Tai were very surprised. They were also a little suspicious.
Xiao Lingyu naturally wouldn't explain anything. He said, "Take me to sign up for the arena fight."
It was very simple to sign up for the arena fight. As long as you paid a fee of no less than a thousand spiritual immortal stones, you could go to the spectator stands and wait. Before long, the cultivator in charge of the underground arena would arrange an opponent for you.
When they tested your cultivation, they only checked the cultivator's soul cultivation. The result of the test was naturally that Xiao Lingyu was a Saint God.
This result cleared Zhang Fang and He Tai of their doubts. They could only sigh at Xiao Lingyu's strength and uniqueness.
