Qiu Honglei nodded, then lightly flew onto the arena with a tap of her toes.

Many people nodded in agreement. Although the woman was rather ugly, her demeanor was impeccable. They wondered how she managed to combine such contradictory qualities into one.

Shi Dingtian walked up with an honest look on his face, scratching his head from time to time, which made many onlookers smile.

Compared to the clash of titans that just happened, this match is much less exciting. If people had known beforehand that these two would be facing off in the semifinals, probably not many would have been willing to watch.

However, their previous underdog performances have added a lot of anticipation to this showdown.

Disciples from various factions privately discussed the outcome of the battle, and apart from a few people from Kongming Island, they overwhelmingly supported Shi Dingtian.

After all, Peng Wuyan was really too ugly, and her ruthless attacks in previous matches also made her unpopular with the crowd.

On the contrary, Shi Dingtian on the other side had a kind of inexplicable honesty and straightforwardness, making it difficult for people to feel any ill will towards him. With this disparity, people naturally supported him.

Zuan, on the referee's bench, was more inclined to side with Peng Wuyan. For some reason, he always felt a strange sense of familiarity with this woman.

This is unbelievable! Is there something wrong with my aesthetic sense?

Realizing this, he stood there stunned, questioning the meaning of life.

When Peak Master Feng Wuchang announced the start of the match, the magic array around the arena lit up to prevent the aftershocks of the battle from injuring the disciples in the surrounding audience seats.

Shi Dingtian, holding a knife, greeted Qiu Honglei.

This knife was clearly prepared for him by Tai Xuan Cave. Judging from the aura emanating from it, it was obviously a Heaven-Rank Divine Weapon.

The master and disciple Jianhuang and Jiese of Wuyou Temple secretly sighed, "The Taoist sect is indeed the Taoist sect. Even the most destitute Taixuan Cave still has such a foundation. One can only imagine how powerful they were when they were at their most glorious."

Qiu Honglei didn't respond to his greeting. Instead, she said with a stern face, "You never used a knife when you fought other people before, so why did you use one when you fought me? Is it because you think I'm ugly that you don't care anymore?"

Upon hearing this, many female disciples in the audience felt a sense of shared experience, and their gazes towards Shi Dingtian became somewhat strange.

Yun Jianyue secretly gave a thumbs up. Hong Lei truly deserves to be the most talented disciple of the Holy Sect in the past few decades. Even with his ugly face, he can turn disadvantages into advantages.

Shi Dingtian's face immediately turned red, and he hurriedly waved his hands, saying, "No, no, it's just that after I went back last time, Master Mu scolded me, saying that if I only used my hands at the beginning, it would give others a sense of contempt. In order to respect my opponent, I had to use my full strength from the beginning."

Many sect leaders on the referee's stand looked at Master Mu. Master Mu's expression was also a little awkward. He knew that his disciple was simple-minded. If he tried to talk to him in other ways, he would probably not listen. Only by using this method could he "trick" him into taking it more seriously.

But if they can fool a simpleton like Shi Dingtian, how could they possibly fool these old foxes on stage?

Qiu Honglei sneered and remained silent, while Shi Dingtian, feeling uneasy, hurriedly said, "I won't use the knife."

As he spoke, he hurriedly put the knife into his storage bag.

Seeing this, the cave master almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He had finally managed to get this silly boy to agree to use the knife, but this woman had dissuaded him with just one sentence.

Qiu Honglei nodded in satisfaction: "That's more like it. I'm going to start now. Be careful."

"Thank you... thank you for reminding me, young lady." Shi Dingtian was deeply moved. Although this young lady looked a bit fierce, she was the first one to care about him. She was such a kind person.

Qiu Honglei smiled, then raised her hand and sent out a light ball.

Shi Dingtian was startled and quickly dodged. He had seen her use this move before, so it wasn't a big problem for him.

Qiu Honglei gave him no chance to react, firing one light bullet after another.

Shi Dingtian dodged and weaved, but later found it too troublesome to dodge, so he simply threw a punch.

The fist carried a fierce gale, always managing to shatter the light bullets.

Liang Ling of Kunlun Mountain was watching the battle and thought that if things continued like this, Peng Wuyan would only be wasting her energy. She should be using that move soon, since that was what caused her to fail back then.

Sure enough, after a few swift light bullets, a huge light bullet was suddenly fired. If Shi Dingtian were to take the terrifying pressure contained within it, he would probably be seriously injured.

The wooden cave master, sitting on the high platform, stroked his beard and smiled. He had previously given special instructions on how to guard against this move.

As expected, upon seeing this move, Shi Dingtian did not wait for it to get close. Instead, he leaped up and attacked Qiu Honglei from the sky. Two huge fist shadows struck the spot where the opponent had just stood, causing the entire arena to shake violently.

Feng Wuchang's eyelids twitched; it seemed this arena probably wouldn't last much longer.

"Huh?" Not only Shi Dingtian, but also the Cave Master of the Wood Cave sat up straight, because Qiu Honglei had disappeared.

The next second she appeared behind Shi Dingtian, as if she had expected him to react this way.

"Such speed!"

Countless people exclaimed in surprise, only then remembering the legendary light element, which was very good at speed.

She brandished her short blades and, in the blink of an eye, launched dozens of attacks at Shi Dingtian's vital points.

Kunlun Xu Liang Ling felt a toothache watching this; he had almost been torn to pieces by this very move back then.

The others also remembered this scene, wondering if the game had been decided so quickly.

However, their eyes widened immediately, because Shi Dingtian had indeed been cut into pieces by those sharp double blades!
