Tianyang's sword was easily neutralized by the realm master's envoy.
Tianyang's expression changed slightly as he looked at Sheng Qingzi, who had already flown to a corner of the battle stage.
Then, a beam of white light entered his body from the Great Void Sword embryo and the [Sky Devouring Secret Technique] disappeared.
His aura also returned to the intermediate Saint Emperor realm.
Tianyang calmly put away the Great Void Sword embryo as he watched the realm master's envoy leave after blocking his attack.
If the Celestial Realm went all out, it would be enough to block the realm lord's emissary and kill Sheng Qingzi.
However, there would be plenty of opportunities to kill Sheng Qingzi.
There was no need to offend a realm master's envoy.
"The first round of the Heaven's Pride Tournament is over."
The realm master's envoy spoke again in a calm tone.
"Everyone on the battle stage is to leave."
Then, the realm master flicked his finger and streams of spatial force acted on the remaining fifty Heaven's Prides.
At the same time, the thirty or so geniuses and corpses who had crushed their life-saving tokens or were defeated and blasted off the battle stage were also sent out.
The top fifty had been decided.
In other words, everyone who was still standing on the battle stage, except for the unaffiliated cultivators, would receive the protection of the realm master.
Haomen, even if he was defeated in the next second, would also receive the protection of the realm master.
Seeing this, the disciples of the Cangxuan Demon Sect, Sky Cloud Hall, and Ancient Dao Sect all had ugly expressions.
It could be said that Haomen had already won half of the Heaven's Pride Tournament!
"It seems that the realm master's protection will only lose its effect if this person dies."
The leader of the Cangxuan Demon Sect said coldly.
The Heaven's Pride Tournament was to select the geniuses of the major forces and strengthen the martial way of the Lingfeng Realm.
If this Heaven's Pride died, it would naturally be impossible to strengthen the martial way of the Lingfeng Realm.
The protection of the force behind this person might also be gone.
A vicious look flashed across Sheng Qingzi's eyes. It was obvious that he also had the same idea.
The realm master of the Lingfeng Realm was equivalent to the king of the Lingfeng Realm!
The realm master's strength far surpassed any sect master, ancestor, or supreme elder of the Lingfeng Realm.
The protection of the Realm Master was like a golden token to avoid death within Lingfeng.
The change in the atmosphere between the leaders of the three great sects was not only understood by them, but also by the others.
However, Tianyang's expression was indifferent as he stood there without moving.
The Great Void Sword Embryo in his hand flickered, emitting rays of sharp light from time to time. Similarly, rays of sharp light flashed in his eyes.
Next, it was a battle to the death.
"I wonder if I'll be able to reach late Saint King or even peak Saint King after this battle."
The corners of Tianyang's mouth curled upwards as he chuckled.
It was not easy for him to make a breakthrough in his cultivation. It was basically impossible for him to reach the peak of Saint King in a single battle.
It meant …
Tianyang had set his sights on Saint Qingzi's Divine Vein!
A few hours passed in the blink of an eye for these cultivators.
"Let the second round of the Heavenly Pride Tournament begin!"
The Realm Lord's Emissary also let out a low shout, waking up countless people who were in the midst of cultivation!
The crowd's faces were filled with battle intent!
The protection of the top 50 Realm Lords was only a part of the rewards of the Heavenly Pride Tournament.
The top 30, top 20, top 10, and even top 5 all had powerful opportunities from the Realm Lords!
These opportunities were extremely powerful. In the past, many Demigods had even refined and absorbed the rewards of the Heavenly Pride Tournament on the spot and broke through to the Divine Realm on the spot!
To be able to cultivate the top 50 geniuses of the Lingfeng Realm, they naturally would not lack security, nor would they participate in the battle for the protection of a Realm Lord.
They were doing it for the opportunity to break through to the Divine Realm.
Even if they did not succeed, their cultivation would be greatly enhanced, and the difficulty of breaking through to the Divine Realm in the future would be greatly reduced.
Instantly, almost everyone's faces were filled with battle intent!
"The rules of the second round are slightly different from the previous ones."
However, the Realm Lord's Emissary did not immediately start the second round of the Heavenly Pride Tournament. Instead, he spoke slowly.
"The previous rounds of battles were too cumbersome and a waste of time."
"Therefore, the Realm Lord has changed the rules of the second round this time."
The Realm Lord's Emissary said indifferently, "From drawing lots to choosing opponents, the competition will officially begin after the 50 people have been matched."
Hearing this, everyone was taken aback.
Choosing opponents!?
Immediately, the expressions of some of the weaker people changed slightly, and they tried their best to hide their cultivation aura, while the stronger ones sneered.
Wisps of Primordial Spirit sensing power were released from their Spirit Seas!
What kind of opponent was this?
In other words, it was to let them choose a soft persimmon!
Immediately, countless experts rushed toward a few people!
This scene also fell into the eyes of the Realm Lord's Emissary. His expression did not change, but there was a trace of a mocking light in his eyes.
Picking soft persimmons would only allow them to enter the top 25.
The top 25 would only allow them to obtain the rewards for the top 30. It would be extremely difficult to increase the success rate of entering the Divine Realm.
Most importantly.
In the first round, they were all picking the weak as their opponents.
In the later rounds, they were all experts.
What could these people use to advance further?
The Realm Lord's Emissary swept his gaze around.
As expected, Sheng Qingzi, the leader of the Cangxuan Demon Sect, Fang Wuji, Tianyang, and Ji Mingkai were all motionless.
However, in the next moment, the leader of the Cangxuan Demon Sect disappeared in a flash.
At the same time, an extremely fierce gust of wind shot toward Tianyang!
Tianyang's expression did not change. With a flick of his wrist, a powerful gust of wind neutralized the attack.
And that thing also fell into Tianyang's line of sight.
"A protection token?"
Seeing this, Tianyang raised his brows. In the next moment, the leader of the Cangxuan Demon Sect appeared in front of Tianyang.
He casually grabbed the protection token that was about to fall to the ground and casually threw it outside.
"What do you think?"
The leader of the Cangxuan Demon Sect said with a sinister smile.
Hearing this, Tianyang raised his brows. "What do you mean?"
"Throw away the protection token, and then fight with me."
A black light flashed in the Cangxuan Demon Sect leader's eyes as a demigod aura was released from his body!
The surrounding black inner Yuan, which was far more powerful than Lin Shan's, seemed to form a twisted substance that flickered with a strange light under the sunlight.
It was as if his entire body was covered by this black inner Yuan.
Then, a low and sinister voice sounded.
"A battle of life and death."
