They wanted to display their strength in front of everyone. Even if one of them lost in the end, their strength would be recognized by the crowd.
"Boring."
Yun Fan stood below the stage and curled his lips. He scoffed at Luo Lei and Lu Yuran's actions.
At this moment, Lu Yuran and Luo Lei moved at the same time. They formed a seal at the same time and a small crystal flew out from their foreheads.
A thumb-sized ice cube flew out from Lu Yuran's forehead. As soon as the ice cube appeared, it froze the surrounding space. The extremely cold air even caused the temperature of the surrounding space to drop by a few degrees.
A piece of rock flew out from Luo Lei's forehead. That piece of rock gave off a rather heavy feeling. Even though it was small, it felt heavier than a towering mountain that was a hundred thousand feet tall. Every time it moved, the entire space would shatter into pieces, unable to bear the burden.
"Ancestral Ice!"
"Ancestral Rock!"
Lu Yuran and Luo Lei roared at the same time. Soon after, the ice and rock were swallowed by them. The aura around them instantly began to soar.
This scene made many people secretly speechless. Just now, Lu Yuran and Luo Lei were already very strong. They did not expect their strength to soar so quickly.
This kind of strength was probably close to the Emperor Realm. It could be called the Quasi-emperor Realm!
Lu Yuran and Luo Lei were very satisfied with this result. Soon after, they attacked each other again.
The sky was filled with ice storms and sandstorms. They constantly collided with each other, stirring up the clouds in the sky and causing the entire sky to tremble violently.
"Everlasting Ice Fall!"
"Blood Storm of Slaughter!"
The two of them repeatedly used their ultimate moves and completely destroyed the arena below. The terrifying sound of energy colliding lasted for nearly a quarter of an hour before it finally slowly died down.
The crowd that had fled far away finally saw that Lu Yuran was standing steadily above the ruins. Opposite him, Luo Lei was half-kneeling on the ground.
"Haha, Brother Luo, thank you for letting me win. In the end, I won by a little."
Lu Yuran smiled with his hands behind his back.
Luo Lei's face was filled with regret. He then said, "This time, I have indeed lost. However, the next time we meet, it will be different!"
"I look forward to Brother Luo's next challenge!"
Lu Yuran pulled Luo Lei up from the ground and said with a faint smile, "Actually, you and I are on par with each other in terms of strength. I was just lucky this time."
"You flatter me, let's compete again in the future!" Luo Lei also shook Lu Yuran's hand.
Seeing this scene, many of the surrounding people spontaneously clapped their hands. They felt that only with this kind of strength and demeanor could one be considered a genius.
"Lu Qingyi, you have a good younger brother."
In the VIP seats, Luo Jiuyu also congratulated Lu Qingyi.
"You're too kind." Lu Qingyi smiled modestly. "You have a good brother too."
Geng Di said with a smile, "Your Icebound Continent has won first place in this time's preliminaries and won such a rich prize. You must treat us to a drink tonight."
"Sure, sure!"
Lu Qingyi laughed heartily amidst the crowd's praises.
Everyone had completely forgotten that it was only the semi-finals that had just ended. However, almost everyone had chosen to ignore it. They had already decided that Lu Yuran would be the champion of this preliminaries.
At this moment, the voice of the master of ceremonies caused the noisy scene to become silent.
"Next, the finals of this preliminaries will be held. The two opponents are: Primal Chaos Continent's Yun Fan VS Icebound Continent's Lu Yuran."
With that, the host looked at Xiang Yunfan and asked seriously, "Yun Fan, do you forfeit?"
In his opinion, there was no need to compete at all in the finals. Lu Yuran's strength was far superior to Yun Fan's. There was no doubt about this. It would be a waste of time to continue.
He was not the only one who had this idea. Most of the people present had the same idea.
"Why should I forfeit?"
Yun Fan frowned slightly and asked indifferently.
"So, you want to compete?" The host's tone became more serious. He had never seen such an ignorant guy.
"Of course I want to compete!"
Yun Fan said seriously, "And I want to be the champion!"
As soon as these words came out, the crowd was in an uproar. There was a lot of discussion and it was extremely noisy.
"This kid is really overestimating himself."
Luo Jiuyu looked at Yun Fan below and frowned slightly. Didn't he see the strength that Lu Yuran had displayed during the battle with Luo Lei?
"Hmph, he wants to compete for first place? What a joke. "
Geng Di also shook his head in disdain. It was already a miracle for a nobody to be able to obtain a spot in the top five. Now, this guy wanted to take an inch and take a mile, coveting the champion of the qualifying round. He was too arrogant.
Lu Qingyi also sighed slightly. Although he was optimistic about Yun Fan's talent in refining weapons, in terms of actual combat, he naturally leaned towards Lu Yuran.
His younger brother's cultivation talent was not inferior to his. Moreover, as a member of the Icebound Continent's imperial family, the cultivation resources were much better than those of the Primal Chaos Continent.
Yun Fan did not have the support of a big family or force, so how could his strength surpass Lu Yuran's?
It was simply impossible!
"Master Yun Fan, although you may be very confident in your cultivation talent, if you want to become an expert, it is not just about talent …"
Lu Qingyi knew that if one wanted to become an expert, both talent and resources were indispensable.
Therefore, no matter how high Yun Fan's talent was, without enough cultivation resources, it was useless.
On the high platform, the emcee coldly said again, "In that case, the finals will be held tomorrow …"
However, before the emcee finished speaking, he was interrupted by Lu Yuran. "There is no need for tomorrow. I can compete now!"
As he spoke, he looked at Xiang Yun Fan and sneered. "I just went through a big battle and now I have an advantage over you. How about it, Master Yun Fan? Don't tell me you don't dare to compete?"
Yun Fan indifferently said, "I don't care. I just don't want to take advantage of you. Let's wait until you recover before we compete."
"No need!"
Lu Yuran flatly refused and looked at the emcee. "Sir, since both sides have no objections, let's start now."
From his point of view, he still needed to recover to fight Yun Fan? That would not be enough to show off his strength!
Moreover, he wanted to trample on Yun Fan right now. He did not want to wait a moment longer!
"Yun Fan, you little bastard. Today, I will get back at you for all the humiliation you gave me!"
Lu Yuran's eyes were filled with a hint of coldness.
"Alright, since you want to die, I will fulfill your wish."
Yun Fan naturally knew what Lu Yuran was thinking. He would never show mercy to his enemies.
When the emcee saw this, he asked for instructions from the Emperor Of Heaven. When he saw that none of the Emperor Of Heaven had any objections, he nodded and said, "In that case, the finals of the preliminaries will begin immediately. Contestants, please come up to the stage!"
