At this moment, Cao Zhujun stood quietly in the vast sky. Her beautiful eyes exuded a threatening aura as she looked at the three figures in front of her.
The powerful aura emanating from her body stirred up green waves in the sea of trees below. Some of the branches were even broken by the strong wind.
This kind of strength also caused the many cultivators hidden below to not dare to rashly approach. They could only hide in the distance and carefully observe.
"Those who dare to take another step forward will die!"
Cao Zhujun glared and shouted sternly.
However, the three people surrounding her did not seem to care about this warning. They looked at each other and revealed a smile that was not a smile.
"Zhujun, on account of your father, the Great General, the three of us will not kill you today. Hand over your identity token and give up the competition."
The green-robed man in the middle said. He had a huge sword on his back and looked majestic.
"That's right, Junjun. We grew up together and can be considered childhood sweethearts. Why do we have to be so tense? It's better to retreat as soon as possible."
"Give up. You and the Second Prince will never win against the First Prince!"
The other two persuaded, and the smiles on their faces became wider.
"Childhood sweethearts my ass! You want me, Cao Zhujun, to surrender? In your next life! "
Cao Zhujun was even angrier when she heard the persuasion of the three people. If she was not afraid of the three people's combined strength, she would have drawn her sword and fought with them.
If it was a one-on-one fight, she would not be weaker than any of the three people in front of her. However, if the three of them ganged up on her, she would not be able to handle it.
After all, the three of them were outstanding talents in the dynasty.
"If that's the case, there's nothing more to say. We naturally know of your reputation, Cao Zhujun. We can only join forces to take you down!"
The green-robed man gave the two people beside him a look. He raised his hand and grasped the hilt of the sword behind his head.
The other two moved as well. They were clearly prepared to attack at any time.
Cao Zhujun gritted her teeth and said coldly, "The three of you against a weak woman like me. What kind of heroes are you?"
The green-robed man laughed coldly and said, "Haha, to be so stubborn in front of you, Cao Zhujun, his brain must be fried. I think that only the person who has been at the top of the Heaven's Pride Roll for many years can firmly suppress you."
When that person was mentioned, even Cao Zhujun's beautiful face slightly changed. It was likely that she had already experienced the strength of that person.
"Attack!"
While they were moving, the green-robed man let out a low cry. His feet stomped on the ground and he took the lead to rush towards Cao Zhujun.
Following that, the other two also emitted powerful energy fluctuations as they charged towards Cao Zhujun.
In an instant, three powerful auras erupted from the three of them, transforming into three beast-shaped spiritual beasts that pounced towards Cao Zhujun.
Most of the cultivators who were watching the battle from below were shocked when they saw this. Some of the more timid ones turned pale, obviously frightened by the auras of the three geniuses.
"The disciple of the Sword Saint is indeed worthy of her reputation!"
"Looks like Cao Zhujun is going to stop here today. Even if her strength is in the top three of the Heaven's Pride Roll, facing three experts in the top ten of the Heaven's Pride Roll at the same time, I'm afraid that she can only retreat with regret."
"Sigh, looks like the First Prince will have the last laugh in this Hidden Dragon Competition. Without Cao Zhujun's help, the Second Prince will be alone and without help. He is destined to have no chance of competing for first place."
Many people below whispered. There were even some busybodies who pretended to be serious about the outcome of this competition.
Although no one said it on the surface, everyone naturally knew that this Hidden Dragon Competition was extraordinary. It was not only a competition for first place, but also a competition for the position of crown prince.
Some of the previously indecisive cultivators had already decided to express their goodwill towards the First Prince. As long as Cao Zhujun was defeated and withdrew from the competition, the First Prince would most likely have the last laugh in this competition for the position of crown prince.
It was also at this moment that the attacks of the three people in the sky had already landed in front of Cao Zhujun. Cao Zhujun let out a delicate cry. Her jade-like hand tightly gripped the hilt of her sword and directly pulled out a fiery-red longsword.
The longsword was like a wave of fire, emitting a terrifying scorching heat. With a slash of the sword, it was thrown towards the three giant Spiritual Energy beasts like a waterfall.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! Sword Qi and the giant Spiritual Energy beasts collided. Waves of terrifying energy fluctuations swept out in all directions, even shattering the heavens within a hundred thousand feet radius.
Cao Zhujun's Sword Qi directly sliced the three giant Spiritual Energy beasts apart. With a loud bang, they exploded, turning into Spiritual Energy and dissipating.
However, even so, she was still sent flying a thousand feet away by the rebound force. A mouthful of blood slowly flowed out from the corner of her mouth.
"As expected of Cao Zhujun. You truly live up to your reputation. After taking a direct hit from us three brothers, you still have the strength to fight."
"However, even so, if you don't surrender today, you will definitely die at the hands of us three brothers!"
"Junjun, if you know what's good for you, hand over the jade strip and leave this place."
The three of them once again surrounded Cao Zhujun. They crossed their arms and sneered as they looked at her.
Cao Zhujun wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. Her beautiful eyes narrowed as she coldly said, "You want me, Cao Zhujun, to surrender? In your next life!"
"Hmph, then don't blame us for disregarding our friendship when we were young!"
"Go!"
The leading green-robed man waved his hand. The three of them once again joined forces and slashed their swords. They split into three directions and slashed towards Cao Zhujun. They did not give the latter any chance to retreat.
Feeling the boundless pressure around her, Cao Zhujun revealed a look of despair. These three people were all disciples of Sword Sage Peng Yuan, and their coordination was flawless. Even she found it difficult to withstand their attacks.
Right when Cao Zhujun intended to risk her life and die in despair, a black figure suddenly leaped out and arrived before Cao Zhujun like a bolt of lightning. The dark heavy ruler in his hand smashed out fiercely to block the first strand of sword qi that assaulted her. After that, he stretched out his other hand and lightly held Cao Zhujun's slender waist, holding her in his arms. After that, he flashed away once more before the other two strands of sword qi arrived.
The speed was so fast that everyone could only see a black figure suddenly descend and then disappear with Cao Zhujun.
Amidst the energy explosion caused by the collision of the other two Sword Qi, the green-robed man's gaze looked up at the sky. His eyes narrowed slightly like an eagle's.
"Who dares to ruin the good thing of us three brothers?"
The green-robed man growled in a deep voice.
Along with the thunderous roar, not only him and his two brothers, but also the many cultivators who were quietly watching the battle below all revealed expressions of surprise. They did not expect that the person who saved Cao Zhujun was actually a youth who did not even look to be twenty years old.
At this moment, Cao Zhujun did not have the time to pay attention to the arm around her waist. Her entire mind was shocked and speechless. Looking at the youth close by, her beautiful eyes were filled with surprise.
Feeling the surprised gaze of the beauty in his arms, Yun Fan smiled faintly and said, "Sorry, I'm a step late."
