When a person's strength surpassed others by too much, he could rely on his own strength to change the outcome of the competition.
Without a doubt, Gu Man and Sima Chang Tian belonged to this category.
Under everyone's gaze, Gu Man walked towards Sima Chang Tian with a solemn expression.
Gu Man was very familiar with Sima Chang Tian. Sima Chang Tian was publicly recognized as the number one expert in the Jiuxiao Academy.
In the past seven to eight years, Gu Man would fight with Sima Chang Tian a few times every year. Every time, he would lose to Sima Chang Tian.
Although the two had never fought one on one, no one believed that Gu Man could defeat Sima Chang Tian.
In this world, only two people didn't think so.
The first person was Gu Man himself. Gu Man believed that as long as he activated his invincible golden body, even Sima Chang Tian would lose to him.
As for the second person, it was Chu Xingyun.
Without a doubt, Gu Man was one of the top experts in the Jiuxiao Academy. In the entire academy, he was definitely in the top five, or even the top three.
But compared to Sima Chang Tian, who hadn't lost in seven to eight years, there was still a huge gap.
Thinking back to Chu Xingyun's words outside Tong Tian Tower, Gu Man's heart was in an intense struggle.
Chu Xingyun's words were very honest and very realistic …
He was already at the Ninth Sky of Nirvana Stage and should be working hard to break through to the Martial Emperor Stage. But he was still wasting his youth in this virtual competition. Was this really appropriate?
Virtual?
That's right, this so-called Tong Tian Battlefield was just an illusion.
The battles here were all virtual. Although it looked very real, virtual was virtual. It could never be compared to real battles.
Most importantly, Shui Liu Xiang would join the Tian Division next year. Like what Chu Xingyun said, even if they won the championship next year, what did it have to do with him?
Without Shui Liu Xiang, Gu Man was the only core. The entire team was carried on his shoulders.
But once Shui Liu Xiang came, Gu Man had no position. As the team leader, Shui Liu Xiang had to be the core of the team.
Next year … Once Shui Liu Xiang leads the team and wins the championship, wouldn't Gu Man be inferior to a little girl?
Without a doubt, this would become a stain that the barbarians would never be able to erase.
The problem now was very simple …
After activating the Invincible Golden Body, Gu Man was invincible. But without activating the Invincible Golden Body, he was not Sima Chang Tian's opponent.
However, as his final trump card, should he use it or not?
While he was at a loss, Gu Man walked in front of Sima Chang Tian. When he raised his head to look at Sima Chang Tian, the sword light that filled the sky instantly drowned Gu Man …
Chi Chi …
Thousands of pear blossoms sparkled around Gu Man's body amidst the sharp sound of breaking air.
Amidst the violent sound of something breaking through the air, Sima Chang Tian and Gu Man felt intense pain all over their bodies. After that … everything in front of them turned black.
Hmph …
With a disdainful snort, Sima Chang Tian sheathed his sword, turned around and walked towards the direction of the Eternal Sky Battle Squad. Behind him, Gu Man turned into specks of light that filled the sky and disappeared from the battlefield.
Until the end, Gu Man was still unable to make up his mind to use his trump card.
Although Gu Man was defeated, in this second round, the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad still won four to three. They had the advantage in numbers and obtained the final victory.
The arrogant Sima Chang Tian did not take the chance to kill Bai Bing and the others, nor did he take the opportunity to destroy the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad's soul stone to obtain victory.
Sima Chang Tian had already completely ignored everyone in the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad. In front of absolute power, any schemes were just child's play.
As long as Sima Chang Tian could become invincible, he could re-establish his invincible mode.
When the next round began, it would end, and the championship would still belong to Chang Tian!
In the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad's resting room …
Bai Bing looked deeply at Gu Man and said coldly, "I won't participate in the last round. Sima Chang Tian can't deal with it, so there's no point in continuing to fight …"
After speaking, Bai Bing turned and left the resting room. Obviously … she did not plan to participate in the last round.
Although Bai Bing was very smart, she could not make bricks without straw. If the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad did not even have a single person who could fight, there was no way they could win this kind of battle.
Bai Bing had even thought of a script for her opponents.
As soon as the battle began, the five of them would rush to the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad's camp and destroy the soul stone. No one would be able to stop them.
If Gu Man appeared, Sima Chang Tian would be responsible for holding him back and defeating him.
As for the other four members of the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad, the battle would end in three seconds against the four members of the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad.
As for sending Bu Fan to hold them back, it was already useless. Even if Bu Fan destroyed the soul stone, he would not be as fast as the five of them.
If they rushed to the camp, each of them would only need two or three moves to destroy the soul stone.
It was a dead end …
Facing Bai Bing's words, Jun Wu You put his hands on his waist and looked up at the ceiling. He cursed under his breath, but his voice was very soft. Only he could hear it.
Hua Nong Yue was also very unwilling. Her shell-like teeth were biting her lips and her fists were clenched tightly.
The other members of the Flowing Cloud Battle Squad also had gloomy expressions. The feeling of being inferior was really uncomfortable.
Sitting there blankly, Gu Man's mind was blank.
Originally, even if he could not beat Sima Chang Tian, he would not have lost so quickly and so miserably …
But because he was struggling and hesitating in his heart, he was completely distracted. That was why Sima Chang Tian was able to seize the opportunity and kill him on the spot.
Looking at Gu Man's blank and pained expression, Shui Liu Xiang sighed and shook her head, "Brother Yun has never misjudged anyone. I believe this time will not be an exception."
Blankly turning his head to look at Shui Liu Xiang, Gu Man's gaze was completely unfocused.
Looking at Gu Man indifferently, Shui Liu Xiang said elegantly, "Although I don't know why Brother Yun has so much confidence in you, I understand Brother Yun. He is not a blind person."
Facing Shui Liu Xiang's words, Gu Man lowered his head in shame. That's right … Chu Xingyun really understood him. His invincible golden body was indeed heaven defying, but … that was his trump card!
Looking at Gu Man with pity, Shui Liu Xiang said, "I know what you are thinking. You want to keep a trump card to save your life."
Shaking her head, Shui Liu Xiang continued, "However, because your willpower is not firm enough, you will be stuck at the Nirvana Stage for at least a hundred years. If you are unlucky, you will even be stuck at the Nirvana Stage for thousands of years."
But the problem was that the Nirvana Stage only had three hundred years of lifespan.
What!
Fiercely standing up, Gu Man said loudly, "I only want to keep a trump card, but when have I, Gu Man, ever been afraid of death?"
"If you are not afraid of death, why would you keep a trump card?" Shui Liu Xiang asked back. Her words were incomparably sharp and realistic.
Looking at the stunned Gu Man, Shui Liu Xiang said, "Originally, Brother Yun thought highly of you. He thought that as long as you maintained that fearless drive, you would have a high chance of becoming the Emperor."
Looking at Gu Man with regret, Shui Liu Xiang said, "Unfortunately, you missed it. You will never have the chance to become the Emperor."
