The power of the furnace was still there, but the light of the sun and moon behind Ye Futian gradually dissipated. The chaotic space gradually calmed down.
Zhuge Xing raised his head to look at Ye Futian. His eyes were extremely bitter.
He had lost.
At that moment, Ye Futian was standing in the air, looking down at him with a half-smile that was full of mockery.
"Admit defeat?" Ye Futian's lips curled into a mocking smile. "I thought you were so proud to admit defeat against a Grade Nine Noble. Is that all you've got, Zhuge Xing?"
Zhuge Xing clenched his fists. Lightning flashed on his body. He was angry and humiliated, but a defeat was a defeat. Countless eyes looked at the battlefield, and he felt his body burning.
Ye Futian had humiliated him in front of everyone.
Ye Futian turned around and walked back to his seat, with his back to Zhuge Xing. "Why don't you change your name and call yourself Zhuge Bubo from now on?"
Crack … Lightning flashed and disappeared. Ye Futian still wanted to humiliate him before he left. In the future, this name might become a joke.
Many people thought of this harsh nickname when they thought of the battle that day.
Looking at Zhuge Xing and then at Ye Futian, many people sighed. This dark horse had been moving forward and even defeated Zhuge Xing. He was going to be a dark horse all the way.
He really did become stronger when he met strong opponents. The power of his Life Spirit and sorcery continued to grow. It was as if he had held back in every battle and did not use his full strength. The combat power that he had displayed today had shocked everyone.
"Zhuge Xing, wait at the side for now. The selection of the top ten is slightly different from before," the elder on the sky stairwell said. The big figures from the Holy Zhi Palace did not immediately invite Zhuge Xing's disciples. Zhuge Xing nodded and walked to the side with heavy steps, remaining on the battlefield.
Many people were surprised. Could it be that the big figures from the Holy Zhi Palace would only choose their disciples after the battle of the top ten was decided?
Bai Ze opened his eyes and glanced at Ye Futian. It seemed that he really had some ability. Let's see how far he can go before knocking him into the abyss.
At that moment, another figure walked out. Many people looked at the battlefield. It was a woman dressed simply but had a stunning face. It was Phoenix.
Phoenix's eyes fell on Xiao Junyi and she said, "I challenge you."
Phoenix was an expert in the power of life.
Xiao Junyi specialized in the power of death. These were two completely opposite powers. It was as if they were born on opposite sides and could not coexist.
Those influential figures knew that there was a grudge between the Dark Sage and the Undying Old Man.
Now, their successors had met under the Holy Zhi Palace.
Xiao Junyi walked to the center of the battlefield and looked at Phoenix. He took out his bamboo flute and played it slowly again.
Wisps of death currents circled around his body, and the terrifying currents headed straight for Phoenix. At that moment, Phoenix's body was covered in a layer of holy light. The green holy light seemed to be able to expel all evil powers, so that the currents were unable to invade her body.
The sound of the flute entered one's ears and turned into a willpower attack. However, the phoenix's spiritual will was equally strong. Within her spiritual will, there was an undying phoenix bathed in endless flames, protecting her and burning away the invading spiritual power attack.
"So beautiful." Many people looked at Phoenix. She seemed to have transformed in battle. She was pure and holy like a goddess.
Xiao Junyi's ability was death, which could restrain many people. However, Phoenix's ability seemed to be able to restrain his death ability.
The battlefield suddenly became extremely hot. Wisps of flames appeared on the battlefield, and the temperature became more and more terrifying. Around Xiao Junyi's body, wisps of fire condensed and formed. The wisps of fire had a mystical holy luster, like inextinguishable candlelight, and they headed for Xiao Junyi's body.
The gray currents of death swept out, trying to extinguish them. However, the flames burned and destroyed the gray currents. They penetrated the black mist behind Xiao Junyi and burned his body.
"Inextinguishable Flames."
"Phoenix's Life Spirit is the undying phoenix. Her master is the Undying Old Man. Her flames are probably the Undying Flames. The power of her fire spells is terrifying."
Many people shuddered. An illusory candlelight flickered under Xiao Junyi's feet. It grew stronger and stronger until it turned into a huge drop of candlelight, wrapping Xiao Junyi's body within it.
Xiao Junyi was still playing his bamboo flute. Behind him, a pitch-black shadow of death appeared, enveloping his body. The dark shadow was like a monster of death. It opened its mouth wide and swallowed the candle flame bit by bit. Then, it expanded bit by bit. The black mist grew stronger and stronger, covering the sky until it completely swallowed the light of the candle flame. Then, it roared towards Phoenix.
A phoenix cry rang out from the phoenix's body as its fiery red wings spun in the sky. Endless flames rained down, dying the entire world red. An incomparably huge illusion of a phoenix appeared on the vast battlefield. Behind the phoenix was an incomparably divine Undying Phoenix.
The shadow of the phoenix collided with the monster of death, turning into two terrifying screens of light that intersected in the air.
As the sound of the flute was heard, the monster of death continued to expand in a frenzy, growing larger and larger. The mouth of death spread bit by bit, wanting to swallow the huge undying phoenix. The entire world seemed to have turned into darkness, swallowing Phoenix's body.
Many people shuddered. Just how terrifying was Xiao Junyi's power of death?
The black mist of death covered the sky, swallowing everything. The huge undying phoenix seemed to have been swallowed, and the monster's mouth continued to swallow Phoenix.
Phoenix still did not move. The undying phoenix behind her shone with sacred light, enveloping her body. Finally, the monster of death swallowed her and her Life Spirit into the black mist.
"This …"
Many people shuddered. It was too terrifying. Xiao Junyi was like a god of death.
Phoenix couldn't have been swallowed by him, could she?
Not only did Xiao Junyi's flute not stop, but it also became more and more urgent. The power of death roared. At that moment, the black mist that spread from behind him to cover the vast battlefield suddenly shone with dazzling light. Wisps of sacred light pierced through the darkness and rushed out of the black mist. The Undying phoenix's cry was heard, tearing everything apart.
The monster of death roared and struggled. Everyone saw that wisps of extremely dazzling flame had appeared on Xiao Junyi's body, accompanied by dazzling rays of light. The light cut through the darkness and descended. The aura of the entire battlefield roared, and the black mist was completely torn apart. In the next moment, Xiao Junyi grunted and stepped back continuously. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Phoenix's figure appeared again. She stood there quietly, still shimmering with sacred light. But other than that, wisps of the aura of death flowed on her body.
Both sides were injured.
"I give up." Xiao Junyi's expression was still very calm. His handsome face seemed as if it would never change.
"I won't participate in the next battle either," Phoenix said. Both of them then left the battlefield and walked to their seats, sitting cross-legged.
Was it a draw?
There was no victor between the two, and both of them had given up. That meant that they were eliminated together.
Now, there were only seven people left.
Yuan Zhan then walked out. His body made of gold was extremely violent, and his eyes fell on Huang Jiuge.
Yuan Zhan challenged Huang Jiuge.
Of the remaining people on the battlefield, Yuan Zhan naturally would not challenge Ye Futian or Yu Sheng. Of the others, only Huang Jiuge trained in methods of extreme Yang. His attacks were extremely powerful, and it was a good way to hone his powers. He did not come to the Holy Zhi Palace for the ranking, but because the old man wanted him to see the powers of the top human geniuses of the Barren State.
As such, he chose the powerful Huang Jiuge as his opponent.
Huang Jiuge's eyes were filled with arrogance. He stepped out and stood in front of Yuan Zhan with his hands behind his back.
Even when facing a violent beast like Yuan Zhan, he was still calm and composed, as if he did not feel any pressure at all.
He activated his methods, and an airflow flowed on his body. Dazzling light rose, like the aura of an emperor, commanding others to submit.
The Sovereign Family was the descendant of Renhuang. Although the world did not want to believe it, they had always believed in it. The methods they trained in had a mysterious airflow that could condense the power of heaven and earth into a mysterious power, which the Sovereign Family called Sovereign Qi.
He firmly believed in the strength of his ancestors, and he would prove it to the world.
Yuan Zhan stepped out, and the ground shook. His body made of gold was filled with endless power. He raised his hand and slapped out, and the golden palm print suppressed everything.
Huang Jiuge did not dodge. He stepped into the air, and his Sovereign Qi was mighty. He raised his fist and punched out, clashing directly with Yuan Zhan.
There was a loud noise, and the Sovereign Qi turned into a dazzling airflow that swept out. Neither of them retreated, and Yuan Zhan continued to send out a giant palm print, intending to smash Huang Jiuge's body.
Huang Jiuge continued to take it head-on. Loud rumbles were heard, and the air shook violently. The two of them continued to clash, and Huang Jiuge's Sovereign Qi became stronger and stronger. His aura continued to rise, and the rising Sovereign Qi seemed to form a shadow of Renhuang.
The Sovereign Family trained in a special method that allowed them to become stronger the more they fought.
Yuan Zhan's attacks changed, and he used the 81 Strikes of Heaven-traversing Staff Techniques. The Sovereign Qi on Huang Jiuge's body was like a war chariot and spear, and he smashed out together with his fist. He was like a Renhuang controlling an army, commanding thousands of men and horses.
"What a powerful method." Ye Futian's expression changed. No wonder everyone thought Huang Jiuge was the strongest on the battlefield, thinking that he and Bai Ze were the strongest on the battlefield.
Bai Ze and Huang Jiuge's fathers were ranked fourth and fifth on the Barren Sky Ranking respectively, and they were both of illustrious backgrounds.
Yuan Zhan's attacks were unsuccessful, and he became more and more violent. He used the Nine Heavenly Attacks, splitting the earth and shattering everything in its path.
He used the Nine Heavenly Attacks with the body of the golden ape, and it contained a terrifying force. While Yuan Zhan did not have Ye Futian's deep understanding of it, its power was still frightening.
Huang Jiuge naturally felt it as well. The chariot and spear were all shattered, and his Renhuang Body Life Spirit appeared behind him, making his aura even stronger. The Sovereign Qi roared, and when he attacked, it was as if Renhuang had descended upon the world. He still chose to take the Nine Heavenly Attacks head-on, and did not retreat at all.
The stronger Yuan Zhan became, the stronger he became. In the end, Yuan Zhan pushed the Nine Heavenly Attacks to the limit, but he was still unable to defeat Huang Jiuge. His aura was used up, and Huang Jiuge defeated Yuan Zhan.
Looking at the Renhuang figure standing in the air, many people lamented, wondering if the final battle would be between Huang Jiuge and Bai Ze.
If the two of them were to clash, what kind of clash would there be? Who would be stronger?
