Therefore, the main focus of this competition was the first group. After all, it would be extremely difficult for two people from the same palace to advance to the next round at the same time.
The participants of the four palaces were well aware of the rules of this competition.
"If that's the case, let's start with the first group. Four candidates for the League Leader's wife, come up at the same time!"
Gu Wutong's voice rang out. The four beauties landed on the square at the same time, waiting for the lot-drawing to begin.
Gu Wutong waved his hand, and a long sword fell from the sky. The tip of the sword was pointed at Yue Chenyin, while the hilt was pointed at the beauties from the Fire Temple.
In other words, Yue Chenyin would face the beauties from the Fire Temple, while the Thousandfall Monastery would face the beauties from the Water Temple.
"The results of the lot-drawing are out. Yue Chenyin versus Huo Liuli, and the Thousandfall Monastery versus Shui Xinmu," Gu Wutong said calmly.
Gu Wutong said lightly, "Let's start the competition."
Gu Wutong landed on the high platform. The four of them split into two groups and started fighting at the same time.
There was no suspense in the first round. The difference in strength between the two sides was too great. Huo Liuli was about to attack when she was knocked down by Yue Chenyin.
One was a Sixth-Tier Shatterer, while the other was only a Fourth-Tier Shatterer. There was no way to make up for the difference.
Next was the battle between the Thousandfall Monastery and Shui Xinmu. Both of them were Fifth-Tier Shatterer, and the battle was in a stalemate. But in the end, the Thousandfall Monastery defeated Shui Xinmu with a slight advantage.
However, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the Thousand Fall Monastery had held back in their fight against Shui Xinmu.
Almost everyone knew that the Thousandfall Monastery was a level lower than Yue Chenyin. If they didn't hold back, it would be difficult for them to defeat Yue Chenyin.
Next, the second round of the competition began.
Yue Chenyin and the Thousandfall Monastery finally stood face to face for the final showdown. This showdown would directly affect the outcome of the entire competition.
"The Thousandfall Monastery is holding back. I'm afraid they have a trump card."
Dongfang Jie frowned. If Yue Chenyin could defeat the Thousandfall Monastery, then as long as one of them advanced to the second round, they would be able to win the competition.
"Don't worry. Yue Chenyin's strength is not as simple as it seems."
Ye Mo said nonchalantly.
"Is that so? Seems like you know her quite well. She's been quite close to you ever since you entered the Ancient Alliance. Could it be that the two of you have a secret that you can't tell anyone? "
Dongfang Jie raised his eyebrows and said.
"What do you mean?"
Ye Mo's expression changed slightly.
"Nothing much. I just hope that you don't get too close to Yue Chenyin. Regardless of whether she becomes the Alliance Master's wife or not, she's not someone you can get close to."
There was a hint of warning in Dongfang Jie's voice.
Hearing that, Ye Mo immediately understood. Dongfang Jie obviously liked Yue Chenyin, but he didn't dare to show it. As long as Yue Chenyin wasn't selected, Dongfang Jie would very likely start pursuing her fiercely.
"Oh no! Will Dongfang Jie lose the competition on purpose? "
Ye Mo's expression changed. He looked at Dongfang Jie and said, "Dongfang Jie, do you like Yue Chenyin?"
"Not bad."
Dongfang Jie didn't mince his words. "But don't worry. I won't let Yue Chenyin lose. Her dream is to become the Alliance Master's wife. So, even if I have to give it my all, I'll help her win this competition."
At that moment, Yue Chenyin and the Thousandfall Monastery finally started fighting. Dense divine powers emanated from their bodies at almost the same time. Like a river, they rushed out and collided with each other, exploding with a violent boom.
"Thousand Wind Blades!"
The Thousandfall Monastery's aura exploded the moment they started fighting. It was completely different from the aura they had in the first round of the competition. She waved her sword, and streams of Wind Blades swept out like sharp blades. There were at least a thousand Wind Blades that instantly enveloped Yue Chenyin.
This was an Immortal Martial Skill that was ranked 175th on the Immortal Martial Skill List. When it was executed, the wind blades would advance layer by layer, one blade after another. It would be very difficult for cultivators of the same level to block this move easily.
"Hmph!"
However, Yue Chenyin did not take the Thousand Fall Monastery's attack seriously at all. She directly faced it head-on and began to play the flute in her hand once again. The sound waves encircled her body, forming an impenetrable defense.
Boom!
The Thousand Wind Blades sliced at her continuously, but they couldn't even get close to Yue Chenyin's body. Yue Chenyin took advantage of the momentum and appeared above the Thousandfall Monastery's head. She waved her flute, and with the support of the Six Shattering Powers, she slashed down at the Thousandfall Monastery's head.
"Watch out!"
Feng Shang and Feng Yixiu were both shocked when they saw this. They had initially thought that the Thousandfall Monastery would be able to defeat Yue Chenyin by hiding their strength. They hadn't expected that Yue Chenyin's strength was far more than what it seemed on the surface.
Fighters who could enter the Ancient League were not to be underestimated.
However, the Thousandfall Monastery couldn't react in time. She was a Fifth Demolisher, after all. She barely managed to block the attack with her divine weapon, but Yue Chenyin's flute was like a hot knife through butter. It slammed into her divine weapon and forced her back a hundred meters. Finally, she couldn't take it anymore. She coughed up a mouthful of blood. Her sorry state was enough to make anyone feel sorry for her.
"Thousandfall Monastery, you've lost!"
After saying that, Yue Chenyin turned around and bowed to Gu Wutong and Gu Wuji.
"Hmph!"
The Thousandfall Monastery stomped her feet in anger.
"Yue Chenyin, your strength has improved very quickly," Gu Wuji said. "When I went into seclusion, you were only in the Fifth Shattering Realm. I didn't expect you to reach the Sixth Shattering Realm so quickly."
Gu Wuji nodded his head and praised her.
"Thank you for the compliment, League Leader!"
Yue Chenyin was wild with joy, her voice tinged with excitement. She knew that Gu Wuji had a good impression of her. It was very likely that she would become the League Leader's wife and help Ye Mo obtain the Life God Source.
"Next up is the second group's duel," Gu Wutong said. "Eight assisting fighters, come up at once."
Gu Wutong once again appeared on the square. Eight experts with extraordinary auras also flew out from the high platform and landed beside Gu Wutong. The eight of them directly surrounded Gu Wutong.
Gu Wutong threw out another long sword. One end of the sword was pointed at Dongfang Jie, the other at Feng Yixiu.
Ye Mo threw out his sword three times, facing a Water Turtle Protector of the Water Temple.
As for Feng Shang, he faced a Protector of the Fire Temple.
One of the Water Hall's Protectors faced off against the other Protector of the Fire Hall.
This duel had exceeded everyone's expectations. Dongfang Jie of the Earth Hall had actually encountered Feng Jiu Xiu in the first round.
