Gao Fei entered the arena and immediately announced Lu An's victory.
Then, a healing Heavenly Master quickly entered the arena and rescued Dong Kui from the deep pit. During the examination, they discovered that Dong Kui's injuries were not as serious as they looked. The blood that flowed out was only a superficial wound.
Lu An had indeed held back. He had controlled his strength just enough to win the competition.
After announcing the result, he turned and left amidst the cheers of the audience. The people from the other seven Sacred Lands looked at Lu An. Apart from shock, they also felt a chill in their hearts.
The sect masters of the seven Sacred Lands felt the same way. Every time they thought that Lu An would face a tough battle, Lu An would end the competition in an understated way. For example, from the beginning until now, not even half an hour had passed.
Now, Lu An's victory could no longer be judged by normal standards. If Lu An was in his twenties or close to his thirties, they would not be so panicked. However, Lu An was only 13 years old today …
It was simply too frightening to have such strength at such a young age. There was no doubt that Mount Dacheng Sky Mountain had an extremely talented young man. And this young man could very well break the balance of the eight nations.
Mount Dacheng Sky Mountain already had two level-six Heavenly Masters. If there was one more, the situation would be completely different. If this young man could grow to become a level-seven Heavenly Master in the future …
Then, the seven nations would no longer exist.
A level-seven Heavenly Master was not as simple as a level-six Heavenly Master. After level-six, every realm was a heaven-defying change. That kind of change could no longer be made up for by numbers.
Although Lu An, who was walking on the road, did not look at the positions of the eight Sacred Lands Sect Masters, he knew that the more he displayed his strength, the more dangerous it would be. It was an eternal truth that a tall tree attracted the wind. This was also the reason why he had been restraining himself.
Soon, Lu An returned to the waiting area and sat down on a chair. There was still one more battle, and the winner would compete with him the next day. Although he had already memorized these people's fighting methods and habits yesterday, he would go through them again just to be safe.
He could win because he had figured out his opponent's habits in advance. It was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Huang Zhizhong looked at Lu An from the side. He originally wanted to congratulate Lu An, but seeing that Lu An was completely different from the other victors, he didn't say anything in the end.
He knew that to this young man, the championship was more important than anything else.
Unlike the first match, which ended easily, the second match lasted for a long time. The strength of the Myriad Swords Manor and the Northern Holy Gate were on par with each other, and the two top disciples each had their own strengths. The Myriad Swords Manor used swords, while the disciples of the Northern Sacred Gate used sabers. The glint of blades and shadows of swords had turned the entire arena into a mess.
In the end, after a long period of competition, the Ten Thousand Swords Manor emerged victorious. When it came to the use of weapons, Myriad Swords Manor was clearly more experienced. It could be said that the Ten Thousand Swords Manor won in terms of weapons. After all, the Northern Sacred Gate was the same as the Great Accomplishment Heavenly Mountain. They didn't have any specific weapons.
In this way, tomorrow's battle was already decided. Song Li, a disciple of Myriad Swords Manor, would fight against Lu An, a disciple of Sky Mountain.
Song Li had used too much of his Fate Wheel in this match, and he was injured as well. He had to recuperate as soon as possible to ensure that he would be in his best condition for tomorrow's battle. In order to allow Song Li to have a good rest, the next day's battle would be held at noon.
Lu An didn't have any objections. After the match, he didn't go anywhere. Instead, he went straight back to his residence.
It was a quiet night.
The next day, in the morning. Although the battle would be held at noon, all the disciples still came to the arena early. This was probably the best result for Sky Mountain in the past 100 years. How could they not be excited?
No matter what, Lu An was guaranteed to make it to the top three. If he won this match, he would compete with the disciples of the Xiong True God Sect for the championship.
In fact, by now, most people were more inclined to believe that Lu An would win the championship. After all, he had defeated several top disciples of the Holy Grounds. The strength that Lu An had demonstrated made it impossible for people to doubt him.
This included today's match.
Normally, most people would think that this would be a tough battle with the Ten Thousand Swords Villa's amazing swordsmanship. However, after the previous battles, they didn't think so anymore.
Today's battle would probably end early.
"How long do you think Lu An will take to end the match today?" Someone from the inner peak of Sky Mountain asked.
"No more than five minutes," someone said immediately. "The longest battle he had was with the Earth Attribute Heavenly Master. However, even Lu An's match didn't last more than 30 minutes, let alone the Ten Thousand Swords Villa. "
"That's right." Gongye Qingshan nodded and said, "For Lu An, the time he takes to defeat his opponent doesn't depend on his opponent's strength, but on his opponent's defense. The Ten Thousand Swords Villa is known for their offense, but their defense is weak. I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on for long. "
Everyone nodded. Even the Wind Attribute Heavenly Master couldn't hold on against Lu An, let alone the Ten Thousand Swords Villa.
While everyone was discussing Lu An, Lu An was in a palace. In the palace, Shi Changdao, Gao Fei, and the Minister of Personnel of Tiancheng Country were all there.
It was already the third day. Lu An was waiting to see if the Punishment Elder who went to the palace had returned.
Unfortunately, he had waited for an entire morning, but the Punishment Elder still hadn't returned. Seeing that it was almost noon, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to come back before noon.
"It's almost time." Gao Fei glanced at the time and said, "Let's go to the arena first."
Lu An frowned and glanced at the two sect masters. Without saying anything, he turned and walked out of the door.
Looking at Lu An's back, the three of them looked at each other. The more Lu An didn't say anything, the more they knew how determined Lu An was. If he couldn't get a promise, this kid would probably not participate in the finals tomorrow.
"Why hasn't the Punishment Elder come back yet?" Gao Fei frowned and said in a deep voice.
On the side, Minister Dong glanced at Gao Fei and said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid the King can't make a decision. I hope the Punishment Elder can come back before the competition tomorrow."
"What if he can't come back?" Gao Fei glanced at Minister Dong and said with a frown, "We have to think of the worst case. What if he can't come back?"
As soon as he said this, Shi Changdao immediately opened his mouth.
"I'll give him a promise." Shi Changdao looked at the two of them and said in a deep voice, "No matter what, we have to win the championship first. If anything happens, I'll take responsibility. "
"…"
Gao Fei and Minister Dong looked at Shi Changdao and nodded in the end.
A moment later, they all came to the arena. When Lu An appeared and sat in the waiting area, the audience suddenly heard the name Lu An.
"Lu An!"
"Lu An!"
"…"
The audience was thunderous. Even though Lu An had not appeared yet, the momentum of the home field was enough to suppress any opponent. The cheers did not stop because of the time, and they even got louder. Everyone shouted at the top of their lungs and did not hold back at all.
The cheers lasted for a long time and did not stop until Gao Fei entered the arena. Gao Fei looked around and said loudly, "Now, the second last round of the competition is about to begin. The winner will advance to the finals and compete with the Xiong True God Sect for the championship tomorrow! "
As soon as he said this, the audience cheered again. After a short moment of cheering, Gao Fei said again, "Now, Song Li of Wanjian Villa and Lu An of Dacheng Sky Mountain enter the arena!"
Immediately, the audience cheered again. Amidst the cheers, the two contestants jumped down from the high platform and walked toward the center.
Soon, the two of them stood in the center of the arena and looked at each other from several feet away. Song Li's expression was very solemn, and his eyes were full of pressure and the desire to win. Lu An, on the other hand, looked at his opponent calmly, without any fighting spirit.
Gao Fei looked at the two of them and announced loudly, "Let the competition begin!"
As soon as the announcement was made, Lu An was about to rush over. However, the moment he was about to move, he immediately stopped.
Lu An frowned slightly and his expression changed for the first time. That was because he realized that Song Li's performance in the distance was different from all the previous battles.
Song Li's expression was a little painful and ferocious. After the pain and ferociousness, his eyes suddenly lit up as if they were shooting out a ray of light!
At the same time, the light around Song Li flashed. He raised his hand and a ray of light shot up into the sky from his hand!
Then, the entire ground darkened!
