(Chinese medicine is so bitter)
This year's Genius Competition was held by the Great Axe Sect, Black Light Sect, and Shadow Mist Sect. Naturally, the prizes would be provided by the three first-rate sects.
According to the three first-rate sects' thoughts, they should each take one of the five seats. That way, they wouldn't lose out.
Only the Shadow Mist Sect had achieved that. The Great Axe Sect and Black Light Sect had really lost out. They felt like they had worked for someone else.
With the defeat of the white-robed youth from the Great Axe Sect, the five seats were confirmed.
The mysterious youth, Qing Chen, Chen Zong from the Cloud Dragon Dynasty, Chi Changfeng from the Silver Light Dynasty, Xiao Mingjin from the Nine Eagle Dynasty, and Wu Ying from the Shadow Mist Sect from the Three Ferocious City.
"Congratulations to the five of you for entering the five seats. Your names will be engraved on the Three Ferocious Battle Stele." Hui Ziyue smiled.
The five seats would receive rewards, and their names would be engraved on the battle stele. Next, it was time to determine the ranking of the five seats. The higher the ranking, the better.
"In the battle of the five seats, everyone has one chance to challenge. You can also give up. The challenges will start from the fifth seat." As soon as Hui Ziyue finished speaking, Wu Ying from the Shadow Mist Sect stood up with a smile. Her eyes were as soft as water as she glanced over the crowd.
The battle just now made Wu Ying realize that none of the four were easy to deal with.
As her eyes moved, Wu Ying pondered.
The white-robed youth and the black-robed youth's battle strength was similar to hers, but they weren't a match for Chi Changfeng and Xiao Mingjin. Wu Ying was most likely not a match for them. As for Qing Chen and Chen Zong, their battle strength wasn't bad, but they had only defeated five-star cultivators. Therefore, she didn't know how strong they were.
"I challenge …" Her seductive red lips slightly opened. "The second seat."
"Please come to the battle stage." Hui Ziyue smiled.
Wu Ying's eyes were like water, as if she wanted to see through Chen Zong.
"Big Brother Chen Zong, please go easy on me later." Her red lips slightly parted as she softly spat out a few words. Her voice was as soft as water, and it was indescribably seductive.
Chen Zong didn't answer. He just smiled. He was so determined that a little temptation couldn't shake his heart.
The Misty Shadow seemed to be slightly annoyed, but all of this was just to confuse the opponent. In an instant, the Misty Shadow moved like a wisp of smoke. Chen Zong suddenly moved to the left, and a cold light pierced through his body.
It was as if he was walking among the shadows of swords and sabers. The cold light was like a storm, but it could not hit Chen Zong at all.
"Being able to advance and retreat freely within a small space …" Qing Chen's eyes flashed, but the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile. This required absolute control of one's own strength, as well as a precise grasp of one's surroundings.
After attacking continuously, the Misty Shadow was unable to hit Chen Zong at all. He realized that there was a clear gap between him and Chen Zong, so he immediately unleashed an even stronger attack.
Layers of fog covered the entire area. Within the fog, there seemed to be an illusory figure moving about. A cold light flickered within the fog, and this was where the name Misty Shadow came from.
He was surrounded from all directions, as if there was no way out. Chen Zong did not panic at all.
He had not entered the Enlightenment Realm, so he had to hold back a little. He unsheathed the Red Thunder Sword and turned into a red lightning bolt, flashing through the fog.
Vaguely, there seemed to be the sound of metal clashing.
The Misty Shadow's body movement was very strange. When he used it, he could bring up fog and illusions, making it difficult for people to distinguish between directions and find out where the real body was. People could only passively dodge and block the attacks.
However, Chen Zong's senses were very sharp. Even if he closed his eyes, he could still sense the movements around him.
As long as the other party moved, it would naturally cause the air to flow. Chen Zong would be able to sense the slight flow of air and react accordingly.
The Misty Shadow's fighting strength was at the middle stage of the Six Star Realm, while Chen Zong's fighting strength was at the late stage of the Seven Star Realm when he did not use his secret technique. However, Chen Zong was hiding his strength. He did not use the power of the Enlightenment Realm, nor did he use his two swords. His fighting strength was not even at the Seven Star Realm, but at the late stage of the Six Star Realm. It was enough to deal with the Misty Shadow.
Chen Zong shook his wrist, and the sword light poured out like a rainstorm. It was sharp and powerful, like a ray of light breaking through the clouds, tearing the fog apart.
The Misty Shadow could only see the sword light in front of him. Every sword light was so powerful that it could tear him apart. He had to use all of his strength to deal with it.
The weapon used by the Misty Shadow was a dagger. The dagger was as bright as snow, shining with a dazzling cold light.
In just a few moves, the Misty Shadow was at a disadvantage. He was directly suppressed by Chen Zong, and could not find any chance to fight back.
With a sword in his hand, Chen Zong did not move an inch. That sword seemed to be able to spread to every corner of the fighting ring. There was nowhere to hide. The Misty Shadow had to use all of his strength to barely block every sword attack. Every sword attack made the Misty Shadow exhausted.
Strong, he was too strong.
Everyone could see that the gap between the Misty Shadow and Chen Zong was huge.
One was using all of her strength, while the other was taking it easy.
Chen Zong had already seen through the Misty Shadow's movements and attacks. Therefore, how could she compete with Chen Zong?
The last sword attack was as fast as lightning. The Misty Shadow only saw a flash of red light in front of his eyes. It was faster than his reaction speed.
With a burst of power, the Misty Shadow flew out and fell out of the fighting ring uncontrollably.
The rules for losing a battle were that one had to either be beaten to the point of being unable to get up, or be kicked out of the fighting ring, or admit defeat.
The Misty Shadow was knocked out of the fighting ring by Chen Zong, so she lost.
This year's competition was not perfect yet. Therefore, everyone only had one chance to challenge. Perhaps it would not be able to fully display one's strength, and it would not be exciting enough. But that was the current rule.
One chance. If you won, you won. If you lost, you lost.
The Misty Shadow lost to Chen Zong, which meant that she could only be ranked fifth, unless someone challenged her and was defeated by her.
However, judging from the current situation, the other four were all stronger than the Misty Shadow. It was impossible for her to defeat them.
"Congratulations to Chen Zong for keeping his seat." Hui Ziyue smiled. He then looked at Xiao Mingjin, "Now, it's the fourth place's turn to challenge."
"I will challenge you." Xiao Mingjin was thinking while watching the battle. He had already made his decision. He looked past Chi Changfeng and Chen Zong and landed on Qingchen's face.
"Okay." Qingchen smiled, looking calm and elegant.
"This Xiao Mingjin's strength is at least at the late stage of six-star, or even higher."
"Maybe he is at the peak of six-star. Otherwise, he would not be able to defeat Bai Fu so easily."
"This Qingchen is even more mysterious. I can't see through him at all."
"He must be at the six-star level as well. I wonder what level he is at?"
While everyone was guessing, Xiao Mingjin and Qingchen landed on the stage one after another.
"I can't see through your strength. So, I will use my full power from the start." Xiao Mingjin said seriously. His hands swept past his waist and put on a pair of black gloves. His five fingers spread open as if he could hug a mountain, but also as if he could resist the impact of a mountain.
"That's a wise decision." Qing Chen smiled. His calm tone contained a shocking amount of confidence.
"Take this." As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Mingjin's entire body shot out like a meteorite. The sound of wind breaking was extremely loud. It was as if a hundred-meter-tall wave was crashing down.
Amidst the roar, Xiao Mingjin's inner strength surged like waves. Light blue waves surged on the surface of his body and rushed towards his arms. It was as if the sound of the waves was getting louder and louder. Under the guidance of his arms, it turned into the most violent waves, crashing against the shore. The waves were thousands of times heavier.
Before the two palms arrived, the horrifying palm pressure had already squeezed the air in front of him. It was as if steel was pressing down on him. The tough stage started to crack, and the cracks started to move forward rapidly.
Under Xiao Mingjin's palms, even breathing became difficult for Qing Chen. He couldn't even inhale air. However, Qing Chen's expression remained calm, without the slightest trace of panic.
The moment Xiao Mingjin's palms were about to hit Qingchen's body, Qingchen moved.
He raised his right hand. It seemed very slow, but the trajectory was clear. He put his five fingers together and straightened his arm. He was facing Xiao Mingjin who was rushing towards him with a violent momentum.
Then, when Xiao Mingjin's horrifying palm pressure was about to hit him, Qingchen's right palm trembled slightly. An irresistible force burst out in an instant.
With a booming sound, the entire fighting stage seemed to be shaking. Everyone's heart skipped a beat.
Under the pressure of Qingchen's palm, the steel-like palm pressure could not resist at all. It was directly smashed into pieces like porcelain, making cracking sounds.
The invisible palm print collided with Xiao Mingjin's palms. Xiao Mingjin's face suddenly changed. With a roar, his body seemed to expand and his strength became even more powerful.
The booming sound was like thunder. It was earth-shattering. The hard bricks below were instantly shattered and turned into powder by the impact of the force.
Qingchen's body leaned back slightly, like a bamboo bent backward in a storm. He suddenly bounced back and struck out again.
There was a misty green light on his palm. The edges of the green light were like serrated needles that could pierce through anything. It was unstoppable.
Under the collision, Xiao Mingjin found it difficult to resist. He had to take two steps back to reduce the force. The moment he reorganized his strength and was about to launch a second attack, Qingchen's palm had already arrived.
The sharp sound was like a demon's voice. It almost tore his scalp and twisted his brain into a ball of chaos. Xiao Mingjin's face changed greatly. He frowned and felt very uncomfortable. His spiritual will was disturbed and his highly condensed strength was somewhat unstable.
In a battle between masters, Xiao Mingjin's attack was obviously affected by the slight fluctuation of strength. When Qingchen's palm came, Xiao Mingjin could only hastily resist.
His resistance was destroyed in an instant by Qingchen's palm. After shaking off Xiao Mingjin's palms, Qingchen's palm hit Xiao Mingjin's chest directly.
The moment Qingchen's palm hit Xiao Mingjin's chest, all the green light disappeared.
