Next, it was the turn of the three contestants to choose their opponents.
As one of the sub-challengers, Ye Chen directly selected his pre-determined teammates: Yun Teng, Jiang Yi, Wu Ban, and Gui Ying.
The reason he didn't choose the elder of the Reflecting Moon Sect as a teammate was because he was afraid of being tricked by the other party. Although he couldn't attack his own people in the final battle, if the other party was just slacking off or stood by and did nothing, then he would have one more opponent.
In a battle that concerns life and death, he could not allow this situation to occur.
The other two attacking camps were both composed of elders from the Yingyue Sect.
After the offensive and defensive teams were formed, the final battle did not start immediately. Elder Ta first rewarded the third round of advancement with spiritual energy. Only after everyone had finished refining the energy did the final battle begin.
In the first round, Chi Yuan's group will face off against Ruan Haikuo's group.
If Ruan Haikuo's group can defeat Chi Yuan's group in this round, they will replace the latter as the defensive team and face the next group's challenge. Chi Yuan's five members will be eliminated and teleported out of the tower.
Ye Chen's team was the last group to go into battle. If Chi Yuan's team lost to the others, they would not have a chance to fight Ye Chen's team.
However, Ye Chen was not worried that Chi Yuan would not be able to reach him. Of the three attacking groups, only his group had the strength to fight against Chi Yuan's group. The other two groups would not only be crushed by Chi Yuan's group, but would also be humiliated and have no chance of winning.
As Ye Chen had predicted, although the first two groups were the strongest members of the Yingyue Sect's elder council, they were still no match for Chi Yuan's group, who was invincible below the Venerable rank.
Once Chi Yuan defeated his chosen opponent, the entire group collapsed without any suspense.
At this moment, the final round of the grand arena battle has begun, with Chi Yuan's team facing off against Ye Chen's team!
Everyone in the Moon Reflection Sect held their breath, anticipating the outcome of this duel.
However, almost no one was optimistic about Ye Chen's group. After all, Chi Yuan was too strong. At the Spirit Sect level, Chi Yuan was invincible. Even if Ye Chen's group had three Holy Land Emperors, their chances of winning were not high.
Unlike the people of Yingyue Sect, the various Holy Lords all favored Ye Chen's group to win, because they had already learned that Guiying could break through to the Spirit Venerable level. Once Guiying broke through to the Spirit Venerable level, who in Chiyuan's group could defeat him?
The top floor of the Seven Absolutes Pagoda.
The arena has been transformed into the Thunder Battlefield.
Ye Chen took a deep breath, glanced at Chi Yuan with murderous intent, and then arrived at the Thunder Battlefield with Yun Teng and the other three.
Chi Yuan's eyes also revealed a sharp aura as he looked at the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife in the system bar.
【Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife】: Seventh level of Spirit Venerable.
After consuming 500,000 Yuan Stones, the power of the Immortal Slaying Flying Knife has increased to the seventh level of the Spirit Venerable realm. As long as one's cultivation level does not exceed this realm, no matter what life-saving methods one has, even if the one who is hit is an avatar and the main body is not in the Seven Absolutes Tower, the avatar and the main body will be killed together.
Even the Blood Demon Ancestor's ultimate soul-splitting technique, which can split souls completely severed from the original soul, cannot escape the slaying of the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife as long as they belong to the same person in terms of cause and effect.
The Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife severs the physical body, the soul, and also the cause and effect.
Once hit, there is no way to avoid it, no way to escape it, only death.
Chi Yuan didn't know what life-saving methods Ye Chen had, but once Ye Chen was hit, even if the Holy Lord intervened, he wouldn't be able to save Ye Chen.
This time, he is determined to kill Ye Chen!
Let's go.
As the voice fell softly, Chi Yuan took the lead and stepped into the air, followed by Rong Qingyan and the other three.
Upon arriving at the Thunder Battlefield, the five stood in an arc in the void, with Chi Yuan in the center and the other four on either side, facing Ye Chen's group from afar.
"Boy, do you dare to fight me?"
On Ye Chen's side, the eerie figure, pale as a corpse, took a step forward dozens of feet, his eyes, gleaming with a cold, eerie light, fixed on Chi Yuan as he spoke.
Chi Yuan's gaze narrowed slightly as he sensed a dangerous aura emanating from the ghostly figure.
This person is strange!
"As you wish."
Chi Yuan flashed to the front. His intuition told him that Guiying was stronger than Rong Qingyan and the other three. If he did not take action against Guiying, he was afraid that no one would be a match for Guiying.
"I'll pick an opponent too."
You Rong Qingyan came to Chi Yuan's right side, her alluring eyes looking at Ye Chen, her smile barely concealing her murderous intent as she said, "My good son, I never thought that we, mother and son, would one day become opponents on the battlefield. It's all my fault for not being ruthless enough back then. I only made you lose your cultivation, but didn't take your life, which led to this terrible result. This time, I will definitely get rid of this scourge with my own hands, so that you won't become a great demon and wreak havoc on the world in the future!"
"Hmph, a woman without manners and shame, does she even deserve to be my mother?"
Ye Chen retorted that once Guiying killed Chi Yuan, he would replace Chi Yuan and become the person supported by the You Rong clan. At that time, the entire You Rong Qingyan lineage would become his furnace, and he would let this woman know what cruelty was!
"Oh dear, well said, but it wasn't harsh enough. However, I can understand. After all, you still need to maintain your hypocritical righteous image. Otherwise, if others find out that you want to take me as your furnace, wouldn't your image collapse?"
You Rongqingyan said sarcastically in a pretentious tone.
"Don't slander me. How could I possibly have such filthy thoughts? It's my senior brother who's really cunning. To get revenge on me, he turned my mother into a furnace. How could a demon do such a vile thing?"
Ye Chen rebuked him with righteous indignation.
"You unfilial son, how dare you slander the young master! Today I will teach you a lesson!"
You Rongqingyan spoke angrily, a vine whip appeared in her hand, and she made a move to attack Ye Chen.
"Sister, leave him to me."
At this moment, You Rong Qingxian stepped in front of You Rong Qingyan, glanced at Chi Yuan with her beautiful eyes, and said softly to You Rong Qingyan, "I owe Yuan'er too much. I must make this debt pay back to that wicked disciple Ye Chen!"
"Alright, you go deal with him first, but don't kill him outright. Leave him alive so I can give him a mixed doubles brawl when I'm free!"
You Rongqingyan's lips curled slightly as she uttered a sentence, then looked at Yun Teng and the other two, saying in a calm voice, "Of the three of you, who will be my opponent?"
“I, Yunteng, am happy to oblige.”
Yun Teng accepted the challenge.
"Then it's you."
Without hesitation, You Rong Qingyan chose Yun Teng as her opponent.
"Jiang Yi, fight me."
Feng Ge unleashed his fighting spirit, pointing directly at Jiang Yi, the imperial son of the Emperor Sword Sect. He and Jiang Yi were both at the eighth level of the Spirit Sect, making them the two with the highest cultivation among the imperial sons and daughters participating in this trial. Apart from Chi Yuan, only he could deal with Jiang Yi.
As for Yan Li, he chose Wu Ban, whose cultivation had been raised to the late stage of the seventh level of the Spirit Sect. The spiritual power rewarded by these two advancements also raised his cultivation to the peak of the Spirit Sect. When he went all out, he had the combat power of a half-step Spirit Venerable. Even if he could not defeat Wu Ban, he could at least hold Wu Ban off for a while.
At this point, both sides had chosen their opponents, and a major battle was about to break out.
