The young man nodded, "Since Fellow Xia is in such a hurry, let's not waste any more time. Let's have a round of attrition and a melee. If there's no winner in these two rounds, you and I will fight again. Two out of three rounds, the winner gets the Spirit Land. What do you think?"
Xia Qian Qian glared at him and snorted coldly, "I think you're itching for a beating."
The young man smiled, "Let's use this mountain valley as the battlefield."
"Sure!"
The mountain valley was neither too big nor too small, just enough for Fifth Order Cloud River Realm cultivators to fight. No matter who it was, they wouldn't be able to take advantage of the terrain.
The young man and Xia Qian Qian retreated to the Spirit Peaks on both sides of the mountain valley.
Lu Ye's group of five consisted of one Body Cultivator, one Ghost Cultivator, two Armament Cultivators, and one Magic Cultivator. Such a lineup was undoubtedly suitable for a melee, but the other side's lineup was also very comprehensive. They had both Body Cultivators and Magic Weapons, but Lu Ye couldn't tell if there were any Ghost Cultivators.
Apart from the Body Cultivator and Lu Ye, the other three were all from the same Sect, so they were naturally more familiar with each other. They didn't have time to talk on the way here, so they only had time to get to know each other now.
Xia Qian Qian's three Sect Cultivators reported their names and cultivations one by one. Unsurprisingly, they were either Fourth Order or Fifth Order cultivators. Obviously, they had entered the Cloud River Battlefield at about the same time, so there wasn't much difference in their cultivations.
The Body Cultivator also reported his name and cultivation, and then several pairs of eyes looked at Lu Ye.
"Ye Liu, Third Order Realm."
Even though they had inferred that his cultivation wasn't high from the Spirit Energy fluctuations when he used his Artifact on the way here, when they heard that he was only Third Order, they were obviously stunned.
Xia Qian Qian's three Sect Cultivators looked at her together, as if they wanted to ask why their Senior Sister had found a Third Order cultivator.
Xia Qian Qian said, "Don't think that others are weak just because their cultivation is low. Ye Liu is very good at fighting. In a one-on-one fight, none of you may be his opponent."
The four of them naturally didn't doubt Xia Qian Qian's words. Hearing her words, they were even more curious about Lu Ye. Unfortunately, Lu Ye was wearing a fox mask, so no one knew what he looked like or what expression he had at the moment.
The Armament Cultivator said, "Brother Ye, we'll have to trouble you."
Lu Ye nodded. This arrangement was undoubtedly very advantageous to him, because if these four people were strong enough, he wouldn't even need to participate in this tag-team battle.
The soldier cultivator continued, "I'll take the lead for a while. The rest will depend on the situation. What do you think, senior sister?"
Xia Qianqian nodded. "We'll do as you say."
The reason why she and the youth opposite her were here was because they were called over by their fellow sect members. At their level of cultivation, they could advance to the True Lake Stage anytime. If they could avoid interfering with the matters of their junior brothers and sisters, they would try their best not to.
After all, they could protect him for a while, but they couldn't protect him forever.
Seeing that Xia Qianqian had no objections, the soldier jumped out and landed in the center of the valley. Then, another person flew out from the opposite side.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them started fighting in the valley.
Cloud River Realm cultivators had many more means of fighting than Spirit Stream Realm cultivators. At the very least, Spirit Stream Realm cultivators wouldn't suddenly fly in the middle of a fight. They didn't have the ability to do so. Only when a cultivator reached the Cloud River Realm would they have the ability to fly.
The cultivator on the opposite side was obviously a Fifth-Order cultivator, and his strength was about the same as the soldier cultivator on the other side. The two figures intertwined in the valley, and Spirit Qi constantly collided. The battlefield looked like it had been hit by a tornado. Trees collapsed one after another, and it was a complete mess.
After fighting fiercely for a stick of incense's worth of time, the soldier cultivator on the other side found an opportunity to send his opponent flying with a blow. In mid-air, his opponent spat out a mouthful of blood.
The soldier cultivator took advantage of the opportunity to pursue and launch a few more fierce attacks. His opponent was in a sorry state.
After one side lost, an earth-shattering change occurred in the evenly matched battle. This was the so-called "one wrong step leads to many wrong steps".
They were all veterans who had been on the battlefield for a long time. Since they had the upper hand, they naturally wouldn't give their opponent a chance to make a comeback.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse, an unwilling roar echoed in the valley, "Admit defeat!"
They had no choice but to admit defeat. If they didn't, they would be beaten to death.
Xia Qian Qian's two Junior Brothers and Junior Sister cheered with joy. Even Xia Qian Qian had a smile on her face. Obviously, she felt that her Junior Brother had performed well.
After the other side shouted the word "admit defeat," the soldier cultivator on the other side didn't continue to pursue. Instead, he hurriedly stopped and stuffed a Spirit Pill into his mouth.
However, the other side obviously wouldn't give him much time to recover. Immediately, a second person flew down from the opposite mountain.
Although the battle just now was short, the consumption of Spirit Qi was still huge. It had a great impact on their strength. The soldier cultivator on the other side wanted to fight if he could, but if he couldn't, he would exhaust the enemy's strength as much as possible and leave it to the people behind.
In the end, when he saw that the person sent by the other side was only a Fourth-Order Cloud River Realm cultivator, and it was a Fourth-Order cultivator that he had fought with before, he was overjoyed. He immediately gathered his spirit and rushed forward.
The Fourth-Order cultivator wasn't fully prepared when the enemy rushed towards him. Naturally, he hurriedly retreated, dodging while casting his Spirit Qi.
Compared to the close combat just now, the movement of the Spirit Qi cultivator was undoubtedly much more vigorous. The soldier cultivator on the other side advanced by leaps and bounds, dodging every Spirit Qi attack as much as possible. If he couldn't avoid it, he would block it with his Spirit Artifact. For a moment, the battle was very intense.
When there was only a distance of a thousand metres between the two sides, three streams of light from Imperial Artifacts appeared and attacked the Spirit Qi cultivator in a triangular formation. At the same time, the soldier cultivator increased his speed and continued to close the distance.
Faced with such a situation, the Spirit Qi cultivator on the other side gritted his teeth and pushed his Spirit Qi to the surface of his body. At the same time, he madly pushed his Spirit Qi and raised his hand to form a Spirit Qi Technique. This Spirit Qi Technique was different from the ones he had used before. It was extremely fast and arrived in front of the Spirit Qi cultivator as soon as it was formed.
The soldier cultivator on the other side obviously didn't expect the other side to have such a trump card. In a moment of carelessness, the Spirit Qi cultivator was hit in the chest by the Spirit Qi cultivator. His advancing figure flew backwards, causing the two cultivators beside Lu Ye to cry out in alarm.
At the same time, in the mountain valley, the Spirit Qi cultivator was bleeding profusely. It was the soldier cultivator's Imperial Artifact that had injured him, causing him to fall to the ground.
This time, it was a lose-lose situation.
Two figures flew in from both sides of the mountain valley. It was Xia Qian Qian and the young man on the other side. They each checked the injuries of their Junior Brothers and brought them back after a short while.
It was obvious that both of them were seriously injured and couldn't continue fighting.
They only had one person on their side, yet they had defeated two of their opponents. The situation seemed to be in their favor, but the soldier cultivator's injuries weren't light and he wouldn't be able to fight for a short time. This was obviously disadvantageous to them later on. After all, there would still be a melee after the tag-team battle.
On the opposite Spirit Peak, the young man's face was gloomy. Obviously, he wasn't satisfied with the performance of his two Junior Brothers. They were both Fifth-Order Spirit Qi cultivators, but the first one to fight was directly defeated by the opponent. The second one, a Fourth-Order Spirit Qi cultivator, should have no problem fighting an opponent who consumed a lot of Spirit Qi, but he was still defeated by the opponent.
After pondering for a moment, the young man said, "Jiang Liu Zi, you go!"
He wasn't prepared to let the two helpers he had invited to fight so quickly because if they did, the result would be obvious.
One was Jiang Liuzi, and the other was Jiang Chengzi. These two young brothers had once made a name for themselves on the Spirit Stream Battlefield. Both of them had the strength to rank first on the Spirit Stream Ranking. However, in the past decade or so, the Spirit Stream Ranking had always been occupied by a monster. Even the second place had been occupied by Yan Xing of the Mad Blade Sect.
As a result, the two brothers could only occupy the Third and Fourth Ranks.
It wasn't just the two brothers. In the past ten years, the Spirit Stream First Rank had become the pain in the hearts of many young talents. They clearly had the strength to occupy the Spirit Stream First Rank, but they just didn't have the luck.
Everything was blamed on Li Baxian. If it weren't for him, how could Feng Yue Chan and Yan Xing stay on the Spirit Stream Battlefield for so long?
However, it was said that Li Baxian and Feng Yue Chan both broke through to the Cloud River Realm half a year ago. There were already many ambitious people from Myriad Demon Ridge looking for them, preparing to take revenge for being suppressed in the past.
It could be said that there was no cultivator who didn't know about Li Baxian and Feng Yue Chan on the Cloud River Battlefield. After all, they had all grown up looking up to these two.
Back then, they had to look up to these two people who could easily suppress them. Now, their cultivations were even lower than theirs. How could these resentful Myriad Demon Ridge cultivators miss this opportunity to take revenge?
It could be said that Li Baxian and Feng Yue Chan were in the same situation as before Lu Ye dominated the Spirit Stream Battlefield. Everyone wanted to beat them up. As long as their whereabouts were exposed, no matter where they went, they wouldn't be safe.
This time, they were able to invite the Jiang brothers, Jiang Liuzi and Jiang Chengzi. Therefore, the young man was determined to obtain the Spirit Land. In his opinion, there was no suspense.
Following his words, a youth who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen replied in a dull voice, "Okay!"
He stepped out of the crowd and flew lightly towards the valley.
On Xia Qianqian's side, her ghost cultivator and magic cultivator fellow disciples were finally able to relax after checking the Weapon Cultivator's injuries.
Turning his head to see that Jiang Liuzi had already entered the valley, the ghost cultivator frowned. "This is the helper they invited. I'll go test him out."
"Be careful!" Xia Qianqian warned.
The other side had only lost two matches, yet they had already invited a helper to fight. It was obvious that they wanted to win back some ground. It could be foreseen that this helper wasn't weak.
However, ghost cultivators didn't care about the cultivation level of their enemies. As long as they found the right opportunity, killing enemies of a higher cultivation level was a common occurrence.
The ghost cultivator concealed himself. No one knew where he went.
In the valley, Jiang Liuzi stood there quietly. The youth with red lips and white teeth looked like a statue. He didn't move at all.
The mountain wind was bleak, and a faint murderous intent filled the air.
Suddenly, sword light erupted. Accompanied by a muffled groan and a cry of surprise, the ghost cultivator's figure appeared. There was a sword wound on his chest that was so deep that his bones could be seen. Blood spurted out.
The ghost cultivator's face was filled with shock.
