C454 The First Round Ended
C454 The First Round Ended
A groan sounded out, Chen Yu's body slightly shook, he could only feel a wave of Yin energy with the intent of death invading his body.
The sword aura was like an ocean as it tried to drown Chen Yu, forcing him to ignore the attack of the Evil Spirit Swallowing Shadow Bat. He could only use his sword to block Xu Renfeng's attack.
As the two swords clashed, Xu Renfeng suppressed Chen Yu once again. He said calmly, "Chen Yu, you still have time to admit defeat. Otherwise, it's just a loss that will not make up for the gains."
Before he finished his sentence, Xu Renfeng's expression suddenly turned pale.
"We're finished, that surnamed Chen, Evil Bandit is finished, senior brother Xu has finally avenged our Dragon Head Peak!"
"It's still far from revenge. The deacon referee at the martial arena won't just watch as Chen Yuan dies. If he wants to take revenge, then he'll have to wait for an opportunity!"
"It's good to collect some interest first!"
"…"
Many of the Dragon Head Peak disciples felt that the dust had settled, and they felt relaxed, as if they were about to wash away their shame.
The deaths of Yi Liansheng, Zhong Xuanlin and the other disciples had been a lingering shadow on the heads of the Dragon Head Peak for the past three years. Now, this shadow was finally going to be swept away, and the mood of the Dragon Head Peak disciples could be imagined.
Even on Dragon Head Peak's viewing platform, Zong Yan let out a long breath, called over a disciple and said: "Wait until your Senior Brother Xu defeats that Chen, then you can immediately turn back your Dragon Head Peak and inform Peak Master of this good news!"
The disciple was at a loss and carefully asked, "Isn't Peak Master in closed door cultivation?"
"If I told you to go, then go. Where did all this nonsense come from? Peak Master was happy, it must be because of you! "
However, just as Zong Yan finished speaking, his pupils suddenly shrunk because he saw Xu Renfeng, who was retreating on the arena.
Xu Renfeng was a bit flustered when he retreated.
The next moment, on Chen Yu's back, the Evil Spirit Swallowing Bat's wings that were nailed onto Chen Yu flapped with all its might. From its corporeal body, the intricately formed glyph symbols crazily circulated and extinguished, as if it was struggling with itself.
If one looked closely, one would be able to see that on its claw, a small vine had wrapped itself around it. As the runes on the surface of its body circulated, the spirit energy and energy within its body were frantically flowing and dissipating.
The Spirit Connecting Vine appeared!
Along with Xu Renfeng's hind leg, the Angry Front Sword in Chen Yu's hand shook, and a sword image of the Broken Sword flew out of the sword, directly piercing into his own body.
Xu Renfeng's face turned pale after retreating. When he saw the sword shadow on the Angry Front Sword enter Chen Yu's body, he did not hesitate anymore. He bit the tip of his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood.
With the appearance of this change, Xu Renfeng's face became twisted and pale. The Evil Spirit Swallowing Shadow Bat flapped its wings and increased its speed. Suddenly, it broke free from the small vines that were extending from Chen Yu's body, flew up, and quickly disappeared.
However, just as the Spiritual Soul s left Chen Yu's body, the black Broken Sword's sword shadow shot out from the middle of Chen Yu's back and cut the shadow bat into two. The runes on the shadow bat could not block it at all.
Xu Renfeng, who had retreated a good ten feet away, shook again and spat out a mouthful of blood.
After the black sword image slashed past, it quickly turned in the air and continued to chase after the Evil Bat Spiritual Soul. However, at this time, the Evil Bat Spiritual Soul had completely disappeared and flew towards Xu Renfeng like a mist.
Chen Yu, however, did not hesitate. With a flash of his body, the Wind Transformation Movement was unleashed. He rushed towards Xu Renfeng and thrusted out with his sword, the sword's aura was like a mountain.
Xu Renfeng's face was pale as he raised his sword to block Chen Yu's sword.
On the Dragon Head Peak viewing platform, Zong Yan suddenly stood up, his mouth was wide open, his expression ashen, and he shouted angrily: "How did this happen?"
The disciple beside Zong Yan, who was going to follow Zong Yan's instructions and announce the good news to Daoist Master Tianlong, was dumbstruck.
At the main seat of the viewing platform, Chu Tianshu seemed to be deep in thought.
"What Spiritual Soul? But you can easily trap a strange Spiritual Soul like the Evil Spirit Swallowing Shadow Bat with only showing a corner? " Qi Zhengnan asked with a surprised expression.
Chu Tianshu shook his head, but immediately thought of something and cried out: "Could it be the Spirit Connecting Vine?"
In another corner of the main peak's viewing platform, a skinny old man stood up and said angrily: "It's the Spirit Connecting Vine, this little bastard, the Spirit Connecting Vine is indeed with him, he actually never admits to it, hmph!"
The old man was precisely the Myriad Spirit Palace Luo Yuanhan, an event as grand as the sect competition. Countless Spiritual Soul competed, and other than the elder who looked after the Myriad Spirit Palace and Hallmaster Ning Yushi, the other four elders all came to spectate the competition.
Luo Yuanhan's reaction caused the three Elders who Chen Yu had met before to look at each other in dismay. Among them, Elder Qian said, "That little rascal Chen Yu is indeed not very well-informed. Elder Luo, please do not be angry, and report this matter to the Palace Mistress to make a decision! "
"Ding." On the arena, the moment the sword tip collided, Wu Tie's mountainous sword force suddenly stopped. Instead, it was bounced back by Xu Renfeng's sword force.
Xu Renfeng's expression was twisted and his forehead was covered in sweat. He originally thought that he would not be able to block Chen Yu's sword attack, but seeing that Chen Yu's attack was not strong, his rich battle experience allowed him to take advantage of the momentum and slash horizontally towards Chen Yu's neck.
Swish, swish, swish!
At this moment, the astral light on Chen Yu's sword flashed and the Sword Qi suddenly became vast and boundless. Countless sword Qi turned into finger-sized birds and flew towards Xu Renfeng.
The moment the Swordbird appeared, Chen Yu retreated.
Xu Renfeng had cut down more than thirty to forty Swordbirds with a single slash. The Sword Qi was sharp, but there were simply too many Swordbirds. His body was immediately submerged by them.
Xu Renfeng snorted and quickly retreated.
Wu Tie was expressionless. His body flashed as he punched towards Xu Renfeng's only path of retreat.
Xu Renfeng's sword attack failed to take care of him as he was hit by Chen Yu on the ribs. With a crack, Xu Renfeng's body flew off the stage.
All the sword sparrows were annihilated. This kind of object formed by the sword intent would only exist for a few breaths of time before Chen Yu reached the Deity Entering Stage realm, and would not be able to materialize for much longer.
Following Xu Renfeng's fall, there was absolute silence beneath the arena. All of the Dragon Head Peak disciples had sluggish expressions on their faces, as though their parents had died.
The number one person in the Dragon Head Peak younger generation, Xu Renfeng, had lost!
Numerous gazes converged onto Chen Yu, who was standing on the arena. The commotion spread out everywhere, filling up the entire Thousand-zhang Plateau.
Even those who did not have any grudges or interactions with Chen Yu were shocked at this moment. To defeat a genius in the seventh level of the Spirit Accumulation Stage without having entered the Spirit Accumulation Stage, and to throw away all other factors was already an extremely shocking thing.
In fact, the effects of Yi Liansheng's death three years ago were even greater, but that was, after all, something that no one had personally witnessed. Furthermore, the current scene was witnessed by more than half of the Ruling Spirit Sect's practitioners, causing them to be even more shocked.
"Chen Yu!" Beneath the arena, Wen Congann shouted loudly with a jubilant voice.
"Chen Yu, I really didn't misjudge you. Haha, this is so enjoyable, so embarrassing!" Gongsun Hao laughed and gave Chen Yu a thumbs up.
Ye Qing had a complicated look on his face, but he was still smiling.
Chen Yu nodded and smiled at the three, then looked around at the entire Thousand-zhang Plateau.
Other than the one under Chen Yu's feet, there were only three other arenas that hadn't been decided yet.
The first round was about to end.
Shifting his gaze past Ye Qing and the other two, Chen Yu looked at the crowd below the stage. He saw Xiao Sheng, Lih Xie, and Wenn Siling, Qin Qianyu, and the other people who had entered Ruling Spirit Sect Inner Sect with him.
When they felt Chen Yu's gaze, all of them nodded their heads in greeting.
Suddenly, Chen Yu's eyes focused as he saw a tall and slender young man with a smile on his face.
This man wore the uniform of the main mountain with a long sword on his back. When he felt Chen Yu's gaze, he revealed a gentle smile and his eyes were filled with praise.
Lau Yinian!
It was Lau Yinian, whom he hadn't seen for many years.
In the Evil Dragon Cave, the collaboration between Chen Yu and Lau Yinian could be said to be a friendship of life and death. In the end, Lau Yinian directly took one of the five Spiritual Soul and went straight into the inner sect.
Chen Yu wanted to jump off the stage, but it was not even two hours yet!
Below the stage, the crowd was filled with discussion, discussion, surprise, envy, or hatred.
Chen Yu stood on the stage and waited for someone to challenge him.
However, it was clear that the strength displayed in the battle between Chen Yu and Xu Renfeng was too shocking. Even after waiting for less than an hour, no one came up to challenge Chen Yu.
Beneath the arena, the crowd gradually dispersed.
The other three arenas had been closed.
"Time's up!" Finally, the referee in charge of the arena loudly shouted. An array disc that was engraved with runes had appeared out of nowhere and was placed into a corner of the arena.
In a split-second, a spirit light rose. Accompanied by the flashing of spirit tattoos, the spirit energy rushed out from the side of the arena. Under the effect of the symbols, it intertwined together and turned into an origin energy barrier.
The referee came to Chen Yu's side, took out a wooden tablet and said: "Polar Extreme Peak Chen Yu, this is the proof to enter the second round!"
Chen Yu thanked him.
"There will be two hours of preparation time!" The referee said, "Two hours later, the bell will ring out, and you will alight on the eighty fighting stages located in the center of the Thousand-zhang Plateau!"
"Thank you, Senior Apprentice Brother!" Chen Yu said.
Without another word, the referee turned around and left the stage.
Chen Yu jumped off the arena and greeted Wen Congann and Ye Qing. Just as he was about to reunite with Lau Yinian, he couldn't find Lau Yinian. The latter had already left at some point.
In desperation, Chen Yu, Wen Congann and the other two could only head towards the Polar Extreme Peak's viewing platform together.
Xiao Sheng, Lih Xie, and the others didn't have any intention of coming over to greet Chen Yu, so they all left.
As they walked, they chatted. Chen Yu learned from the three that all three of them participated in the combat, but they were unable to pass through the first round. On the other hand, Gongsun Hao and Ye Qing's Lih Xie had both passed the first round.
Xiao Sheng failed to pass the first round.
When they arrived at the Polar Extreme Peak viewing platform, Jiang Heng welcomed them.
"Senior-apprentice Brother Jiang, you?" Chen Yu opened his mouth and asked with a look of anticipation on his face. He wanted to know if Jiang Heng had passed the first round. At first, they paid attention to Jiang Heng, but they were unable to do so.
"Fortunately, I didn't fail you!" Jiang Heng said, "It's just that there's almost no chance for me to enter the top ten of the Large Competition. I still need to rely on Senior Brother Chen!"
Chen Yu nodded and looked at Lin Ji, who was sitting on the viewing platform with a downcast expression.
The latter had a wooden expression and slowly stood up. Suddenly, he bowed towards Chen Yu and prostrated on the ground.
"Senior Brother Lin, what are you doing?" Chen Yu was stunned as he replied.
"I am unable to enter the second round. As for the existence of the Polar Extreme Peak, I will have to trouble Senior Brother Chen!" Wu Tie said in a hoarse voice.
Chen Yu sighed and said seriously, "I will do my best. I will not let Senior Brother Lin down!"
