It was too fast.
It was so fast that the cheering stopped not too long ago. The crowd was even wondering if they should continue cheering.
Gao Fei immediately came to the arena. After checking on the situation of the Xiong True God Sect disciples, he announced loudly, "Dacheng Sky Mountain wins the first match of the third round!"
Immediately, the entire arena erupted in cheers! After Gao Fei's announcement, everyone finally had a reason to cheer!
Amidst the cheers, the people from the various Sacred Grounds found it unbelievable. It was obvious that the outcome of the battle was far beyond everyone's expectations. The Xiong True God Sect disciples were defeated before they could even do anything. Losing in such a manner was undoubtedly the most unbearable.
"Amazing." Among the eight Sect Leaders, even the Pavilion Master of the Midnight Pavilion could not help but exclaim, "To be able to suppress the opponent to the point of being unable to resist the counterattack, such combat skills are miraculous."
As soon as he said that, the other Sect Leaders nodded in agreement. There was no need to describe this young man's talent with words. It was unheard of for a thirteen-year-old to possess such cultivation and strength. Only the Xiong True God Sect Leader looked gloomy and did not look good.
The disciples of Blue Water Peak were even more jubilant. It must be known that Lu An was from Blue Water Peak. Although Blue Water Peak always placed last in the annual end-of-year examination, Lu An's performance in the Eight Nations Competition had caused them to cheer out loud!
Among the Inner Peak disciples, the defeated disciples sat together with the other disciples. Shang Gong looked at Lu An who was walking back and could not help but shudder. He said, "Lu An... is actually so strong?"
Shang Gong was indeed shocked. With such strength, he was probably stronger than the number one in the Inner Peak.
Although Gongye Qingshan was shocked, he was more excited and said loudly, "I have already told all of you not to underestimate Lu An. Anyone who underestimates him will definitely be frightened! "
Everyone could not help but nod at Gongye Qingshan's words. This time, Lu An had really frightened them.
When Lu An returned to the spectator stand, Huang Zhizhong and the other two disciples immediately congratulated him. However, Lu An was not in high spirits. There was no joy from winning at all. He narrowed his eyes and said to Huang Zhizhong, "Elder, I have something to do, so I'll take my leave first."
Huang Zhizhong was stunned when he heard this. He didn't react in time and asked, "Where are you going?"
"Let's go to Blue Water Peak," Lu An said.
Huang Zhizhong was stunned again. He thought that Lu An was going to celebrate with his friends, so he nodded and said, "Okay, don't go overboard. There's still a competition tomorrow."
"Yes." Lu An nodded and left immediately.
Soon, Lu An arrived in front of the group from Blue Water Peak. When Lu An appeared, cheers rang out again, expressing the warmest welcome to Lu An.
Lu An also smiled at everyone. After saying a few words, he sat down beside Han Ya and Wei Tao.
"What happened?" Lu An asked in a low voice as soon as he sat down.
The two of them were shocked. After looking at each other, Wei Tao said to Lu An in a deep voice, "Liu Panshan is missing."
"…"
Lu An was shocked. He immediately clenched his fists and looked at the two of them with a sharp gaze.
Because of Lu An's gaze, the two of them were shocked!
Lu An didn't even need to ask why. He knew that the two of them must have done it. He had already warned the two of them not to act rashly, but he didn't expect that they still didn't listen to him.
Lu An's heart was full of anger. He should have known that the two of them had said that to make him feel at ease. He gritted his teeth. He wanted to scold the two of them, but it was too late to say anything now.
From the current situation, it was obvious that the people from Blue Water Peak didn't know that the two of them did it. And to kill Liu Panshan silently, Lu An couldn't think of any other way besides poisoning.
The two of them must have cleaned up the scene. Moreover, there were many people who had a grudge with Liu Panshan, so no one would suspect the two of them.
Lu An didn't chat too much with the two of them to avoid attracting attention. He quickly left and returned to Huang Zhizhong's side.
He didn't expect that the two of them would really fight. Although it seemed that nothing would happen now, no one could guarantee that something would happen.
What he needed to do was to prepare for a rainy day. He had to plan for the worst case scenario. If the matter was really exposed, he had to think of a way to remedy it.
In the process of thinking, Lu An paid more attention to the battle in the field. Since the matter had already happened, he needed to be the champion of the Eight Nations Competition even more. That way, if the matter was exposed, he would have the right to speak.
Finally, the day's competition passed quickly. Because it was 40 to 20, there was more and more time for the competition. After the battle, there was still half of the afternoon left.
After the competition, the Eight Great Sect Leaders separated. Tong Tianshui immediately went to the Sect Leader and told him about the matter. After hearing it, the Sect Leader was a little surprised. Then, his face became serious. His order to Tong Tianshui was to find Liu Panshan's tracks no matter what. At the same time, if Liu Panshan was killed, the murderer must be found.
However, everything had to be done in a low-key manner. After all, it was the Eight Nations Competition. They couldn't let the other seven Holy Lands see them as a joke.
After receiving the Sect Leader's order, the people of Blue Water Peak hurried back. Lu An originally wanted to go back with them, but he thought that if he did so, it would be too eye-catching, so he didn't go.
Just as Lu An was about to go back to his dormitory, Huang Zhizhong suddenly stopped Lu An and said, "Lu An, the Sect Leader wants you to go there."
Lu An was stunned. After thinking for a while, he followed Huang Zhizhong to the Sect Leader's place.
Soon, Lu An and Huang Zhizhong arrived at the palace where the Sect Leader worked. At this time, the door of the palace opened. Shi Zhangdao and Gao Fei were both inside, and beside them was a middle-aged man.
Lu An walked into the palace, bowed to the two Sect Leaders and said, "Disciple Lu An greets the two Sect Leaders."
"Rise," Shi Zhangdao said.
After Lu An stood up straight, Gao Fei looked at Lu An with satisfaction and said, "Let me introduce you. This is the Minister of Personnel of Tiancheng Country, Dong Hong."
Minister of Personnel?
Lu An looked at the middle-aged man, cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, Minister Dong."
Dong Hong looked at Lu An, nodded with a smile, and said, "I'm here on behalf of the King and the Imperial Court to visit this competition between the eight countries. The importance of this competition is directly related to the status of the Imperial Court. I don't need to say much about this."
"You're very strong." Dong Hong looked at Lu An and said with a smile, "The disciples of Xiong Real God Religion couldn't fight back, which means that you have the strength to win the championship. In order to make you more determined to win the championship, I, on behalf of the King, can give you a reward. "
Reward?
Lu An's heart moved, but his face remained calm as he asked, "Minister Dong, what's the reward?"
Dong Hong smiled and said, "If you can win the championship, you'll be conferred a high title and rewarded ten thousand households. At the same time, you'll be given a second-grade official title and be on equal footing with me. "
Lu An was startled. Hearing such a reward, he didn't expect the King to be so generous!
One must know that only a fourth-grade heavenly master could become a Prefecture Overseer, and the so-called Prefecture Overseer was only a third-grade heavenly master. He was a second-grade heavenly master, which could be said that he could do whatever he wanted in the entire Tiancheng Country!
However, Lu An soon calmed down. Seeing that Lu An didn't look too excited, Dong Hong was surprised.
"What, you're not satisfied?" Dong Hong asked doubtfully.
"Of course not." Lu An respectfully said, "Whether last time or not, I'll try my best to win the championship. I'm flattered by the King's reward. But … "
"But what?" Dong Hong looked at Lu An and said, "Just say it."
Lu An looked up at Dong Hong and said in a deep voice, "The King has rewarded me so much, but I don't want it, just exchange it for one thing."
"What thing?" Dong Hong was surprised. He didn't know what was worth exchanging these things for.
Lu An looked at Dong Hong, took a deep breath, and said seriously, "Death Exemption Token!"
