Zhou Shucheng's strength was not like Liu Rande's, which was built up by relying on training resources. Instead, he had spent more than two hundred years practicing bit by bit. Even if Liu Taian took action personally, he would not be able to defeat him easily. However, Mu Hanyan did...
Obviously, Mu Hanyan's strength was not as simple as he thought. It was indeed as Liu Rande imagined, strong, very strong, really strong.
The most terrifying thing was that Mu Hanyan's move was so fast that even he couldn't see how she won.
"Father, are we going to see Master Guan now?" Liu Qianyuan asked cautiously, touching his red face.
"Let's see the situation first." Liu Taian said after a moment of hesitation.
Mu Hanyan's strength was completely beyond his expectations. Judging from the situation, even Guan Xiujin couldn't suppress her. Furthermore, the Life Temple's sudden holding of a sacrificial ceremony and the selection of the Right Priest through an open competition was also a violation of convention. He wondered what Guan Xiujin was planning. Therefore, he decided to first assess the situation before making a decision.
In less than an hour, the first competition was over, and Mu Hanyan also welcomed her second competition.
"Yue Tianlun, how could it be him?" Seeing the old man standing opposite Mu Hanyan on the competition stage, the audience exclaimed again.
Like Mu Hanyan's first opponent, Zhou Shucheng, Yue Tianlun also rose to fame early. Although he arrived at the Temple of Life a few years later, his aptitude was far superior, having ascended to the tenth-rank Divine Heart Priest fifty years ago. Since then, he has spent most of his time traveling, rarely appearing in public. It's said that his last public appearance was twenty years ago. If he hadn't been seen again today, many would have suspected he'd failed in his attempt to become a Divine Soul Priest and died outside.
Although he had never seen Zhou Shucheng and Yue Tianlun fight, judging by their respective cultivation progress, Yue Tianlun should be above Zhou Shucheng, or at least not below him. After all, one had only recently been promoted to the tenth-rank Divine Heart Priest, while the other had been a tenth-rank Divine Heart Priest for over fifty years and had long since begun striving to reach the Divine Soul Priest rank.
"Why is Mu Hanyan's luck so bad? In the first round, she met Zhou Shucheng, and in the second round, she met Yue Tianlun." A priest said in surprise.
"Yes, although there are many people in this competition, their strengths are uneven. There are strong ones like Zhou Shucheng and Yue Tianlun, but there are also many people who are not even mid-level Divine Heart Priests. How come all the people she meets are powerful? Isn't her luck too bad?" Another priest said with some sympathy.
In the stands, Guan Xiujing, Kong Renhe and others all had a faint smile on their faces.
At the back of the crowd, Liu Taian heard everyone's whispers and noticed the calm expressions of Guan Xiujing and others. He touched his chin thoughtfully.
"Hey, have you noticed? If we follow the previous grouping by drawing lots, and Mu Hanyan keeps winning, every opponent will be a well-known strong man, and I guess there won't be any opponent below the tenth-level Divine Heart Priest." A priest suddenly exclaimed as he looked at the group list posted on the competition stage.
"If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have realized it. It's true. If Mu Hanyan fights one match after another, he'll encounter those old monsters in every match!" A young priest next to him also shouted with a strange cry.
Everyone else came over and was surprised after seeing the group list. Then they understood something.
"There is a conspiracy! There is a conspiracy!" The crowd in the audience was immediately shocked.
