With the outbreak of battle after battle, the ranking of the top 100 was constantly changing.
When someone went up, someone would naturally go down. Names floated up and down on the list, making it extremely lively.
Almost every battle would attract the attention of countless cultivators from the Nine States, especially the battles that were ranked at the top. Even the cultivators of the Divine Sea Realm would watch them with great interest.
Seeing the vitality of the younger generation, they couldn't help but recall their own past.
On the first day of the fourth round, Lu Ye didn't receive any challenges and passed peacefully.
On the second day, he had nothing to do, so he found Giant Armor's name on the top 100 list and immersed himself in it.
The next moment, a clear image appeared in his mind.
It was as if this image was directly projected into his mind. This was also a unique way of watching battles for cultivators of the Nine States.
In the familiar terrain of the battle arena, the burly Giant Armor was fighting fiercely with a Dharma cultivator.
Lu Ye didn't know how long the battle lasted. When he watched the battle, he only saw that the Dharma cultivator's aura was fluctuating, and his expression was both fiery and emotionless as he was chased around by Giant Armor.
This kind of terrain was actually not friendly for Dharma cultivators, because there wasn't much space to move around.
If he had to choose the terrain of the battle, he would definitely not choose such a place.
However, he was the one being challenged, while Giant Armor was the one who issued the challenge. The right to choose the terrain was in Giant Armor's hands.
The Dharma cultivator was undoubtedly a Cloud River Ninth Order cultivator. His strength and foundation were all extraordinary, and he danced in the air one after another.
However, in the face of these powerful Dharma Techniques that could make any Ninth Order Body Cultivator retreat, Giant Armor, who was only a Seventh Order cultivator, didn't care. He was like a mad beast, breaking every Dharma Technique he encountered. Relying on his shockingly powerful physique, he forcibly shattered the Dharma Techniques one after another, constantly chasing after the Dharma cultivator.
Those powerful Dharma Techniques bombarded his body, but at most, they could only slow him down slightly and cause him some flesh wounds.
The muscles on his bare upper body bulged, and his entire body boiled like the sun.
Lu Ye watched for a moment and knew that Giant Armor should be winning this battle.
The advantages and disadvantages of the giant armor were extremely obvious. The advantage was that its physique was unbelievably powerful, and it could ignore most attacks. At the Cloud River Tier, there were very few people who could unleash attacks that could threaten its life. Even the current Lu Ye would have to unleash the full power of the Myriad Stars Technique if he wanted to do so.
However, its weakness was that it was not flexible enough. Of course, this was only relative.
One of them was doing his best but was unable to cause any effective damage to his opponent, while the other was chasing after his opponent but was unable to get close to his opponent. If one of them wanted to win, they could only wait for one side to run out of spiritual energy.
Spell cultivators constantly cast spells, which consumed a lot of energy, but the giant armor didn't have this concern, so the spell cultivators should be the first to run out of energy.
Furthermore, considering that he might have to challenge others in the future, or accept other people's challenges, he would definitely not allow himself to fall into a state of spiritual energy exhaustion.
It shouldn't be long before Giant Armor's opponent admitted defeat.
Just as Lu Ye expected, less than half a cup of tea later, the panting magic cultivator suddenly stopped running and looked helplessly at the giant armor that was charging towards him. He said, "Why did I have to meet a monster like you!"
The giant armor ignored him and closed in on him, smashing a heavy iron fist down.
"Admit defeat!" The magic cultivator shouted and his figure disappeared. The giant armor's fist hit empty air.
He didn't care much. Ever since he participated in the Battle of the Clouds and River, he had experienced this scene too many times. Most of the time, others couldn't do anything to him, and he couldn't do anything to them either. It was always like this that he forced his opponent to leave.
Naturally, Lu Ye wasn't the only one watching this battle. There were also some True Lake and Spirit Sea Realm cultivators from large sects.
Although the giant armor didn't cause any damage to the magic cultivator from the beginning to the end, the strength of his physique moved those True Lake and Spirit Sea Realm cultivators.
There were already many people secretly investigating the origins and background of the giant armor.
Unlike Lu Ye, who stirred up a storm in the Battle of the Clouds and River and had a great reputation, no one paid attention to Giant Armor ever since he entered the Battle of the Clouds and River.
Now that he suddenly showed his prowess, it naturally aroused the interest of those experts from large sects.
Such a gifted body cultivator, if they could recruit him and nurture him, he would definitely be a big pillar of the sect in the future!
After asking around, they couldn't find out anything about the giant armor. No one knew where he came from. This made those True Lake and Spirit Sea Realm cultivators who were interested in the giant armor feel helpless.
After the giant armor's battle ended, Lu Ye went to watch the fourth senior apprentice brother's battle.
The fourth senior apprentice brother's battle was much more intense. Sword Qi crisscrossed, sword hums sounded, and flying sword light shuttled through the void. He fought with his opponent in full swing.
It was the kind of battle that was both enjoyable to watch and real.
The fourth senior apprentice brother's opponent's strength wasn't inferior to his, so Lu Ye couldn't tell who would win this battle.
But as a sword cultivator, Li Baxian's every attack consumed a lot of energy. If he couldn't win in a short period of time, then he would be the one to lose.
The sword cultivator was number one in the Nine Regions, but the disadvantage was that it consumed too much energy. Until Li Baxian's body merged with the sword light and slashed out a ghostly attack in the void …
It was as if the sword was used as a brush, splashing ink, and writing a heavy stroke …
This blow struck a flaw in the enemy's defense. Li Baxian's opponent was obviously taken aback, but before he could react, another sword light swept out.
Cutting through the void, it was like a sword!
Book Sword Secret Art.
Although it hadn't been long since he obtained the Book Sword Secret Art, Li Baxian's talent in the sword path was extremely high and he had already comprehended something of his own from it.
These two unpredictable sword strikes completely messed up the enemy's formation. One wrong move and the whole game was lost.
A moment later, Li Baxian's opponent had admitted defeat and left, leaving only Li Baxian in his white robes, gently exhaling.
This battle wasn't easy for him to win.
Furthermore, he could sense that this was already his limit.
If he wanted to climb any higher, he would have to raise his cultivation, but a Seventh Order Cloud River Realm cultivation was too much.
Sighing slightly, he quickly left.
This Cloud River Battle was destined to make many Divine Sea cultivators of the Nine Regions gasp in amazement, because not only was there Lu Ye, an Eighth Order Cloud River Realm cultivator.
There was also a talented Body Cultivator like Ju Jia, Li Baxian, and Feng Yue maidservant …
And all three of them were only Seventh Order Cloud River Realm cultivators!
This kind of thing had never happened in the past Cloud River Battle.
In the past Cloud River Battles, the top hundred were almost all Ninth Order Cloud River Realm cultivators. Since when could Seventh Order and Eighth Order Cloud River Realm cultivators enter such a battlefield?
And all of them performed extremely well!
At the same time, another name entered the eyes of the cultivators of the Nine Regions.
Lan Ziyi!
This woman, who was originally ranked eleventh on the Top 100 List, was steadily increasing her ranking.
In the rules of the fourth round, challengers could only challenge opponents two ranks higher than them. They couldn't directly challenge those ranked higher.
Lan Ziyi was originally ranked eleventh, so she could only challenge the ninth place at most.
So, after the first day of the fourth round, she replaced the ninth place.
On the second day, she became seventh.
On the third day, she was fifth.
By the fifth day, she had become second, only below Lu Ye!
Her unhurried style of moving 1F and 5L undoubtedly showed her absolute confidence in her strength.
She believed that she could defeat the opponents in front of her and replace them.
She really did it.
Everyone who paid attention to this felt that it was incredible. Because the top ten, except for Lu Ye, were all masters who had been in the Cloud River Realm for at least a year. Lan Ziyi was able to defeat all of them, which showed how powerful she was.
And the cultivators who watched her battles could also see that this female cultivator wasn't the kind of person who only had cultivation but no corresponding strength.
Her fighting style was changeable, and she was extremely experienced in fighting enemies. She could perfectly exert her strength, so almost every battle was easy for her to win.
Only the battle with Mu Qingyun was more difficult, but it wasn't because Mu Qingyun's strength was far superior to the others. As a sword cultivator, Mu Qingyun's every move was a killing move, so Lan Ziyi had to be careful.
In that battle, Lan Ziyi was injured, and Mu Qingyun's injuries were more serious.
Everyone was waiting for her next move, waiting for her to challenge the unchallenged Lu Ye who had been occupying the first place until now.
— Ye!
So, when the sixth day of the fourth round arrived, countless eyes in the Nine Prefectures stared at Lu Ye and Lan Ziyi's names, anticipating the arrival of a shocking battle!
However, everything was calm …
On the sixth day, Lan Tongyi, who was ranked G0, did not show any signs of activity. It was unavoidably disappointing.
Some people guessed that Lan Fanyi was injured in the previous battle with Mu Qingyun, so she must be recuperating today. She wanted to be in her best condition to fight Lu Ye!
This guess was reasonable, and naturally received the approval of many people.
Under the eyes of tens of thousands of people, the last day of the fourth round arrived!
More attention was paid to Lan Ziyi and Lu Ye's names than yesterday. The entire Nine Prefectures seemed to be shrouded in an oppressive and expectant atmosphere.
In front of the Tianji Pillar, Lu Ye sighed slightly.
He originally thought that in the fourth round, he might have to fight with Mu Qingyun and Yang Yuan. These geniuses didn't lack the courage to challenge stronger people, and they were also willing to prove themselves on such an occasion. Even if it was just to see the means and elegance of stronger people, they wouldn't let go of such an opportunity.
Because if Lu Ye was in their shoes, he would also make the same choice.
But now … it seemed that there was no chance.
Lan Ziyi was ranked second now. This woman had admitted defeat twice, so it was impossible for her to challenge him.
As for Mu Qingyun, who was pushed down by her, it seemed that her injuries hadn't healed yet. It was good enough that she could keep her third place. How could she have the strength to challenge others?
