In the face of the ferocious Su Xin, the Sect Leader of the Divine Knife Sect did not hesitate to retreat.
He was not alone. The entire Divine Knife Sect was under Su Xin's control.
He had no doubt that as long as Su Xin sent a message back, the Divine Knife Sect would definitely be slaughtered by the ruthless Shadow Guard warriors under Su Xin!
However, Zhao Jiuling's face was gloomy at this moment.
What did the departure of the Divine Knife Sect mean? It meant that Zhao Jiuling could not protect the so-called people of the Dao Sect Alliance at all. It meant that the Divine Knife Sect believed that Su Xin was stronger than the Dao Sect Alliance!
Zhao Jiuling was too confident. The Good Fortune Gate was indeed powerful, but it was mainly stronger than Li Boyang's power in the past.
Although Zhao Jiuling was strong, his reputation was far inferior to the ferocious Su Xin.
In the eyes of warriors at the level of the Divine Knife Sect Leader, they could not distinguish the difference between the True Martial Dharma Form and the Divine Bridge.
In his opinion, Su Xin had killed several True Martial Dharma Forms and broken the Shaolin Temple. He was already the most ferocious person in the world. Provoking Su Xin at this time was purely courting death.
Therefore, he did not believe that Zhao Jiuling's reputation would be useful against Su Xin. He decisively chose to admit defeat.
Su Xin looked at Zhao Jiuling and said faintly, "Dao Lord, you can see that he is the one who admitted that he is not a member of the Dao Sect. Could it be that your Dao Sect wants to force the martial artists of the martial world to recognize an ancestor?"
As soon as he said this, everyone present suddenly burst into laughter and looked at Zhao Jiuling with a mocking expression.
Those who had not suffered a loss in the hands of Su Xin would not know how difficult it was to deal with him. Zhao Jiuling did not put Su Xin in his eyes at the beginning, but now he had suffered a loss. When facing Su Xin, he was simply helpless.
Su Xin could be unreasonable and threaten the Godly Knife Sect to kill his whole family to make him quit, but could Zhao Jiuling do that?
Su Xin's reputation had long been tarnished. He could care less about his reputation, but as the Realm Lord of the Mystic Heaven Realm and the leader of the Dao Sect Alliance, Zhao Jiuling could not do such a thing.
Therefore, he could only grit his teeth and accept this matter and leave with a gloomy expression.
However, with the example of the Divine Blade Gate, the other sects that were prepared to join the Dao Sect Alliance felt that something was amiss. The Dao Sect Alliance didn't seem to be as strong as they had imagined.
The Divine Blade Gate was threatened by Su Xin, but in the end, the Dao Sect Alliance couldn't suppress Su Xin. If they joined the Dao Sect Alliance in the future and encountered the same situation in the future, would the Dao Sect Alliance care about them?
It wouldn't be a problem for some small forces, but wouldn't they still have to admit defeat when they encountered an existence like Su Xin?
With this thought in mind, some of the people from the smaller forces immediately retreated silently.
Although those who retreated were sects like the Divine Blade Gate, which had nothing to do with the Dao Sect, it still made Zhao Jiuling's expression turn gloomy. It was the same for the cultivators of the other Dao Sects.
Although it was not a big deal for the Dao Sect Alliance to leave, it had seriously damaged the prestige of the Dao Sect Alliance. It could be said that they had made a bad start.
Zhao Jiuling coughed and said, "The arena competition has begun. All the young cultivators of the current and previous generations can enter the arena to compete."
Hearing this, everyone shifted their attention to the arena. The young cultivators were already prepared to enter the arena to show off their skills.
What was the most important thing for these young cultivators? Apart from strength and opportunities, it was fame.
In the past, when they were fighting for a place on the Ranking List of Young Masters, they had to challenge each other one by one. But now, someone had arranged a ready-made arena for them, and there were countless seniors and experts of the Jianghu watching. Once they could rank among the best, it could be said that they would gain both fame and fortune, and become famous in the Jianghu.
Su Xin said to Gong Wenyu and Su Zichen, who were beside him, "You two go up."
Gong Wenyu and Su Zichen both replied in unison, "Yes!"
For the two of them, Gong Wenyu was relatively calm. After all, he was in the top ten of the Ranking List of Young Masters, and had enjoyed all the fame he deserved.
Su Zichen, on the other hand, was strong enough to be on the Ranking List of Young Masters, but unfortunately, he was a Shadow Guard. He had carried out many missions and killed many people, but the most he showed up was a few battles in the Central Plains when he was in the Innate Realm. As soon as he was listed on the Ranking List of Young Masters, he changed his appearance because he needed to hide his identity. It was not until he reached the Divine Transformation Realm that he used his original name again.
Therefore, this arena competition could even be regarded as Su Zichen's first battle to make a name for himself in the Jianghu. He was not only representing the Northwest Daoist Sect, but also the Su Family of Ningyuan Hall. It was not the Su Family of the direct bloodline, but the Su Family of which Su Xin was the head!
The arena prepared by the Dao Sect Alliance was not small, and could accommodate several groups of cultivators competing at the same time.
In fact, there were not many people qualified to participate in the arena. There were less than five hundred people, most of whom were on the Ranking List of Young Masters of the current and previous generations, and the descendants of the disciples of some relatively large forces in the Jianghu or some powerful independent cultivators.
Although they were not listed on the Ranking List of Young Masters, they could participate in the competition as long as they informed the people of the Dao Sect Alliance. After all, the main purpose of the Dao Sect Alliance's competition was to select the young experts in the Jianghu who were not from large sects.
Among the young martial artists of these two generations, the ones in the Innate Realm were the fastest to be eliminated, while the remaining ones were in the Divine Transformation Realm.
Among them, Gong Wenyu's performance was very eye-catching. His Black Demon Blade was both domineering and ruthless. Moreover, although he was currently cultivating the Spiritual Blood Transference Technique, he did not have the problem of the unstable foundation of the Blood Demon Sect's martial artists. Instead, he integrated the murderous aura into his blade, making each strike stronger than the last. There were very few people in the same level who could withstand ten strikes from him in a row.
Su Zichen's performance was also very good. He had learned from Li Bo for a period of time. When he attacked, his ruthlessness and unpredictable speed made it so that the martial artists who fought with him were usually defeated in less than three moves.
After two hours, there were only twenty martial artists left. The rewards prepared by the Dao Sect would only be effective for the top ten. After resting for an hour, the remaining twenty people drew lots and occupied a large area of the arena. Unlike before, it was a free-for-all.
Gong Wenyu drew the first one, but when he walked into the arena with his blade in hand, his expression changed slightly. This was because his opponent was an old acquaintance, who was also one of his few friends in the past. He was the direct disciple of Zhang Boduan of the Good Fortune Gate, Liu Gongxuan, who was also on the Ranking List of Young Masters.
Back then, Gong Wenyu had offended the Tang Sect, and as a result, the Tang Sect had chased him all the way from Bashu to the Central Plains. He had very few friends, and it could even be said that he only knew two people. One was Liu Gongxuan of the Dao Creation Sect, and the other was He Feng of the Mingjian Villa.
After Gong Wenyu chose to join Su Xin, he never saw the two of them again. Now that he saw them again, Gong Wenyu felt as if it was a lifetime ago.
However, when Liu Gongxuan looked at Gong Wenyu, he had a complicated expression on his face. There was pity, but there was also a look of exasperation.
"Brother Liu, long time no see," Gong Wenyu greeted first.
Liu Gongxuan shook his head and sighed, "Yeah, long time no see. I didn't expect you to be the accomplice of a villain and become Su Xin's lackey!"
Gong Wenyu frowned, "Brother Liu, what do you mean? You and I are just serving different masters. Don't tell me you can't even get over this? "
Liu Gongxuan said with a look of disappointment, "Of course we can serve different masters, but it depends on which side you are on!
Don't you know Su Xin's character? How many fights in the Jianghu has this person caused? How many heroes of the Jianghu have died in his hands? He is even more of a devil than a devil!
You've become his accomplice, and you can even be considered to have entered the path of evil. You've abandoned yourself like this, are you worthy of your cultivation? "
Liu Gongxuan really regarded Gong Wenyu as his true friend, so he really felt pity that Gong Wenyu had turned to Su Xin's subordinates and stepped into the Path of Evil.
Hearing Liu Gongxuan's words, Gong Wenyu's expression gradually turned cold.
"Brother Liu, you are the direct disciple of the Good Fortune Gate, and your master is the acting leader of the Good Fortune Gate, Zhang Boduan. You were destined to have a glorious future since you were young and become a young hero in the Jianghu. I, Gong Wenyu, have nothing except the saber in my hand!
Don't talk to me about righteousness, evil, chivalry, and so on. When I was chased by the Tang Sect for thousands of miles, why didn't anyone come out to help me? It was because the Tang Sect was one of the eight heretical sects, and they couldn't afford to offend them!
And why didn't they help those so-called righteous sects who could afford to offend the Tang Sect? Isn't it because a small figure like me is not worthy of their help?
If it weren't for Lord Su, I'm afraid I would have lost my life long ago.
Now that Lord Su helped me destroy the Tang Sect, imparted me techniques, and gave me power, even if I stepped into the Path of Evil, I, Gong Wenyu, have no regrets. If I was given another chance, I would still make the same choice! "
Seeing Gong Wenyu's firm attitude, Liu Gongxuan had no choice but to pull out the long sword in his hand and say in a deep voice, "Brother Gong, the sea of bitterness is boundless, repent and be saved. It's not too late for you to regret now. My Dao Sect Alliance has been established. If you are willing to repent, I can report to Master and let the Dao Sect Alliance take you in. With your talent, you can still be famous in the Jianghu in the future even if you cripple your demonic cultivation."
Gong Wenyu also pulled out the Black Demon Saber in his hand and said indifferently, "There is no good or evil in martial arts, why should I cripple it? Moreover, I will not betray Lord Su.
Brother Liu, there's no need to say anything more. It's a pity that we didn't have a formal duel back then. This time, let's see who's better! "
