"You're courting death!" Gu Yifeng's pupils contracted, and he took a sudden step forward. He stretched out his hand, and streams of spiritual energy transformed into a large hand to grab Qi Luo, intending to capture him.
Qi Luo's eyes revealed an arrogant and unruly look. He stretched out his arm, and endless starlight appeared on the surface of his body, turning into star patterns that covered his body, as if he were wearing a star armor. He wielded his halberd, and strands of destructive rules bloomed out, carrying supreme power and killing intent.
In an instant, two terrifying storms raged through the space, causing it to tremble violently as if it could not withstand the pressure. Cracks tore open, and countless people turned pale as they watched the terrifying power intertwined in the sky. Many people trembled uncontrollably.
"Bang!"
The collision of two completely opposite energies produced an explosion, the energy of which spread to every inch of the surrounding land, causing buildings to collapse and dust to fill the surrounding area.
"Cough cough!"
After a long while, the dust settled, and everyone saw the two sides engaged in battle.
At this moment, two figures stood on a high platform. One was tall and straight, dressed in purple, and exuded a chilling and murderous aura; the other was disheveled and covered in blood.
Clearly, the man in purple had the upper hand in the exchange just now.
"Qi Yunxiao won."
The square erupted in cheers as the two separated.
"Gu Yifeng is no match for Qi Yunxiao? His strength is actually that great!"
"This is going to be interesting. The feud between the Qi family and the Chen family will eventually be resolved because of Qi Yunxiao's rise to power."
"Hehe, that's for sure. After all, the Chen family wouldn't allow Gu Yifeng to become the most outstanding member of the Chen family."
"Gu Yifeng, from now on we will be competitors, and no one is exempt."
"Gu Yifeng, do you dare to fight me one-on-one?"
"Hehe, why wouldn't I dare? Do you want to fight me one-on-one?" Gu Yifeng glanced at Qi Luo with a mocking look, then leaped into the air.
Seeing this, Qi Luo also leaped up and jumped into the air.
Qi Luo and Gu Yifeng each stood on one side of the air, staring at each other with serious expressions, showing no sign of underestimating each other.
"Gu Yifeng, Qi Luo, I challenge you two." Suddenly a voice rang out, and Liu Tianyu leaped onto the arena and addressed the two men.
Although Liu Tianyu is a direct descendant of the Chen family, he is no match for Gu Yifeng and others, so he is not qualified to participate in the competition.
"Oh, you're challenging the two of us?" Gu Yifeng said with a faint smile.
Liu Tianyu said, "I know you won't pay any attention to me, but I think I should still stand up and challenge you. After all, you three are the strongest among this year's newcomers. If I defeat you, I might be able to use that strength to take first place."
"Heh, you really are dreaming." Hearing this, Gu Yifeng sneered and said, "I'd like to see how you defeat us."
Gu Yifeng's tone was full of contempt and mockery, as if in his eyes Liu Tianyu was not worth mentioning at all.
"You don't need to look down on me. I will work hard to surpass you. One day, I will be able to reach your level."
Gu Yifeng shook his head dismissively and said, "Someone like you, wanting to surpass us, is simply delusional."
As soon as Gu Yifeng finished speaking, he stomped his foot hard in the air, and a fireball rose from beneath his feet. He then shot forward like a cannonball, hurtling towards Liu Tianyu.
"Whoosh!"
Flames rolled and blazed, the intense heat distorting the void and filling the air with a pungent, acrid smell. Gu Yifeng's fist, brimming with surging power, slammed down on Liu Tianyu. In an instant, the sea of fire roared and surged, as if thousands of giant beasts were charging through it.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Everyone exclaimed in surprise.
Liu Tianyu took a deep breath, clenched his right fist, and suddenly swung it out. A dazzling silver light shone from his fist, sparkling brilliantly and dazzlingly.
At that moment, he seemed to transform into a dazzling sun, illuminating the sky.
"Bang!"
The two collided, creating a towering storm of air currents that spread outwards like wave after wave.
Under the force of this shockwave, everyone involuntarily retreated.
After the shockwave dissipated, a huge crater appeared in the center of the arena, sparking and spewing magma, like a furnace.
Gu Yifeng and Liu Tianyu's bodies were both in a bow shape, pressed tightly against the ground, motionless, like statues.
A good ten seconds passed, and the two still did not move. This time, everyone could clearly feel the aura emanating from them; they were on the verge of death.
"hiss!"
Did Gu Yifeng and Liu Tianyu perish together?
"How is Gu Yifeng?"
"........"
The observing cultivators were in an uproar, their hearts pounding with tension, fearing that the two would perish together.
Not only were the crowd worried, but even Gu Yifeng and Liu Tianyu themselves were a little nervous. They were both geniuses, and neither of them wanted to die.
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept by, and Gu Yifeng and Liu Tianyu were separated, both with blood trickling from the corners of their mouths, clearly indicating that they were seriously injured.
"Hmph." Gu Yifeng snorted coldly and said, "So you're a rat, hiding in the gutter to ambush me. How despicable."
Hearing Gu Yifeng's insulting words, Liu Tianyu coldly said, "Hmph, I was just performing normally, don't blame me. However, this move is considered a draw. I think neither of us can do anything to the other for the time being. In that case, let's call a truce for now. We can continue to compete when your level has improved a bit more."
After saying that, Liu Tianyu turned around and prepared to fly away.
"stop."
Unexpectedly, just as he turned around, Gu Yifeng's cold and chilling voice rang out.
"Hmm?" Liu Tianyu frowned slightly and turned to look at Gu Yifeng.
Gu Yifeng pointed at him and said, "Didn't you just say that you wanted the two of us to stop fighting? What, have you changed your mind now and don't want a truce anymore?"
Liu Tianyu coldly retorted, "Gu Yifeng, don't push your luck. Do you really think I'd lose to you?"
"Haha." Gu Yifeng laughed wildly, saying, "Trash, of course you can't be my match, but I can teach you a lesson anytime I want."
Upon hearing Gu Yifeng's words, Liu Tianyu's face instantly turned ashen. He gritted his teeth and glared at Gu Yifeng, wishing he could rush forward and kill him immediately.
"Gu Yifeng, don't be arrogant just because you've won. I admit you are indeed very strong, but don't forget that my father is the head of the Chen family."
“If you dare to touch me, my father will never forgive you.”
"Smack!"
However, no sooner had he finished speaking than a slap landed hard on his left cheek, leaving five bright red finger marks. The entire arena trembled from the force of the blow.
