When Luo Ping saw the change in the old man's expression, he knew that the old man must be up to no good. However, he didn't care too much and turned a blind eye to it.
However, Luo Ping's moves became fiercer and more overbearing. Since the old man intended to play dirty, he didn't mind making him embarrassed.
Sure enough, the old man retreated again and again. Although he didn't reveal a big flaw, anyone with discerning eyes could see that he was at a disadvantage.
"Uh … let's end this."
The old man finally couldn't bear it anymore. He barely stabilized his retreating figure. His aura rose sharply and a hurricane circled back and forth around him.
"Go!"
With a loud shout, the aura around his body was suddenly released. His hands followed closely behind as he displayed a sinister palm technique.
Luo Ping, who had already seen through the old man's plan, was ready when the old man opened his mouth. When the old man's Qi wave hit him, Luo Ping also spewed out his strength, intending to meet it head-on.
With a sinister smile on his face, the old man, who thought that victory was in his hands, didn't care about Luo Ping's calmness. In his view, everything was in the past.
"Bang!"
"Puff!"
The scene froze. The old man's eyes widened in disbelief. He felt the space around him rapidly compressing his body. Only then did he realize that his plan had failed.
Maintaining the posture of leaning forward with his palms, he was swept away by the Qi wave. Blood sprayed out and stretched for a long time in the air.
Ten feet away, the old man finally landed. However, he was kneeling on the ground and couldn't move. Although his internal injury wasn't fatal, he couldn't even heal himself.
"Cough, cough!"
After spitting out a few more mouthfuls of black blood, the old man slowly raised his head and looked at Luo Ping with a pale face. His eyes were full of unwillingness, disbelief, and anger.
"How is it? Do you regret meeting me a little? However … don't be discouraged. You still have the opportunity to challenge me later. At that time, you are welcome to challenge me again. "
Squatting down, Luo Ping whispered in the elder's ear. It was not a provocation, but a disguised repayment.
Luo Ping clearly saw the scene just now. The skinny old man's palms were obviously aimed at his Navel. Without thinking, he knew that the old man wanted to destroy his cultivation and turn him into a cripple.
Even so, Luo Ping didn't mind using a heavy hand to teach the other party a lesson. Therefore, he directly mobilized the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in his body and used his absolute strength and advantage to severely injure the other party.
"Hmph … this old man will definitely remember you. No matter what rank you obtain, just wait for this old man to challenge you again … cough cough."
Reluctantly responding, the thin and tall old man finally couldn't hold it in any longer and started coughing again. Then, he helplessly watched Luo Ping swagger out of the arena.
"This old man will definitely not let you off."
…
After winning the first semi-final, Luo Ping completely conquered the onlookers. If it weren't for the generals of Jinshui Country outside maintaining order, many people would have gathered around him.
"Oh yeah, Cousin Ping is mighty."
"Luo Ping is the best!"
"Luo Ping is so handsome."
Needless to say, it was Chen Xiuxiu and the other two girls who turned into fangirls and cheered for Luo Ping.
As there were still two groups without a winner, Luo Ping had been standing at the edge of the arena and watching their battles carefully. After all, at this stage of the competition, those who could win were basically the strongest of the strong. There was no room for carelessness.
…
After the two semi-final rounds, the most exciting ranking competition was about to begin. Not only were all the advanced warriors in high spirits, but the enthusiasm of the onlookers had also reached the peak.
Those who were able to enter the arena to watch were basically the high-ranking officials of various countries or the entourage brought by Innate Experts. Of course, they hoped that their own country would win.
Even the monarchs of various countries couldn't remain calm. This was the first time they hosted the 'National Competition' since they succeeded the throne. They didn't expect an unprecedented gathering of Innate Experts. They didn't know whether to be happy or worried.
However, no matter what the reason was, when it came to honor, they were more concerned. If there weren't so many Innate Experts, they might be able to calm down. But now …
"Haha, did you see that? Among the top nine, our country has taken up three places. It seems that our country will be the first place again."
The monarch of Elephant Country, Ba Tianhai, laughed heartily and proudly. He couldn't wait to sing a song.
"Brother Ba, it's not that I don't support you this time. Look, our country and the Wind Source Country each have two places. Besides, you know Luo Ping's monstrous cultivation speed. Maybe he will be a dark horse."
Hong Tai, the monarch of Jinshui Country, shook his head and somewhat disagreed with Ba Tianhai's point of view. After he finished speaking, he threw the topic to Zong Lie.
"Zong Lie, what do you think? Give me your opinion on the current situation."
After the border incident a few years ago and the recent development, the strength of the Wind Source Country had steadily increased and it had firmly occupied the third place.
In addition, Luo Ping's fame had spread throughout the countries in recent years, which highlighted the importance of the Wind Source Country and Zong Lie. Therefore, Hong Tai took the initiative to ask Zong Lie. If it was in the past, humph …
"In my opinion, 'Taoist Cang Shan' from Elephant Country and 'Broken Sword Butcher' from your country are the most likely to win the first place. In the previous competition, they have been at ease and have not used more than five moves."
Although Zong Lie was very satisfied with Luo Ping's performance, he could not be too arrogant. Moreover, the sage-like old man and the middle-aged man who carried a huge sword on his back and attacked as fast as lightning were indeed amazing. He could not guarantee that Luo Ping could defeat them.
"Zong Lie, you still like to hide. Look at your side. Let's not talk about Luo Ping. Just the former Sect Leader of the Heaven Sword Sect, the number one Swordsman Sect in your country, Householder Heavenly Sword, is comparable to the two just now. What else do you need to hide?"
Ba Tianhai said as he pointed at an old man who was dressed like a teacher. He was none other than the Heavenly Sword Patron that Ba Tianhai had mentioned.
"Sigh, in my opinion, let's not argue here. Although no expert from the Wei Country has advanced to the top nine this time, there are still many places left. As for the Wu Country and the Pinewood Country, each of them has one person who has advanced to the top nine. Their strength is not to be underestimated. Therefore, no one can make a conclusion until the last moment!"
Hong Tai calmly analyzed the situation of each country and said something that the other Monarchs agreed with. Therefore, they stopped arguing and continued to pay attention to the competition.
…
The first competition was the ranking competition of the Earth Emanations List. Nine people took turns to fight. Each time, one person would have a bye. However, this did not affect the final result. After the order of the competition was determined, the last nine people would compete in the ranking competition.
Although they were ranked last, they were experts who had advanced to the ranking list. Basically, all of them were warriors of the initial Primordial Realm. Their battle was comparable to a national war with thousands of soldiers and horses.
Moreover, most of them were old monsters who lived in seclusion deep in the mountains for a long time. Their personalities were very strange. Therefore, they did not speak much and attacked directly when they met.
Sword Qi was rampant, airwaves were billowing, and they used all kinds of methods. When the round competition ended, it was already two days later. The nine people had already sent out their rankings from the 100th to the 108th place according to the number of wins.
…
After more than half a month, the ranking of the Earth Emanations List was finally completed. Basically, the experts of each country were evenly distributed. There was not much difference, unlike the Tiangang List, where there was a slight difference.
Although Hei Feng and Ming Luo had just advanced to the Primordial Realm a few years ago, a sentence from Luo Ping had given them an epiphany. After they went into seclusion, they quickly advanced to the initial Primordial Realm. It could be said that they had shortened the cultivation time by dozens of years.
Even though they had just entered the initial Primordial Realm, the couple had been cultivating together for a long time. They could learn from each other's strengths and verify each other's weaknesses. Moreover, the 'Dark Fiend Black Feathered Skill' that they cultivated together was a self-created cultivation method. Therefore, their progress was very fast.
In the previous competition, Hei Feng and Ming Luo had both advanced to the Earth Emanations List. Although they were ranked at the bottom after the ranking competition, they were still quite satisfied with it.
After all, the other opponents had been cultivating for dozens of years or even hundreds of years more than them. Being able to enter the list had already proved their strength. As for the ranking, it did not matter anymore.
In addition, Qi Yuehai and Xing Zhen had also sensed the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth because of Luo Ping and had advanced to the Xiantian realm. However, the two of them had been immersed in the Xiantian realm for dozens of years. Now that they had broken through, their strength had increased greatly.
This time, they had come to participate in the 'National Competition'. Under the crowd of experts, the two of them also relied on their extraordinary strength to occupy a place in the Earth Emanations List.
There were also some other experts from the Wind Origin Country. Basically, Luo Ping had already met them once when they were in the VIP Tower. He had also exchanged a lot of cultivation experiences with them, which made these old monsters feel deeply surprised and somewhat enlightened.
Luo Ping had also gained a lot of inspiration and inspiration from their cultivation methods and experiences. After a few days of meditation and contemplation, he had further improved in both cultivation and combat.
Seeing many familiar faces enter the Earth Emanations List, Luo Ping was very happy. After all, the country's sense of honor could only be truly reflected at this moment.
At this moment, it was already time for the ranking competition of the Heavenly Dipper List. Similarly, the last nine people would have to fight in turns. Compared to the Earth Emanations List, the following competition was not only more intense, but also more attractive.
The experts who had advanced to the Heavenly Dipper List were basically all at the initial Primordial Realm. In terms of strength, they could crush those at the initial Primordial Realm. Therefore, the competition between them would definitely be the focus of attention.
As soon as the competition started, the wind and clouds changed color. Sand and stones were flying everywhere. The Primordial Realm experts' methods of borrowing the power of nature were reflected.
Moreover, the power and strength displayed by each of their moves were obviously not on the same level as those at the initial Primordial Realm. They were truly able to use the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to fight.
Although the onlookers basically did not know about the existence of the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, this did not affect their watching and cheering. They only cared about the process and the final result of the competition.
