Although except for those who were bribed by the Meng family for a little profit, most people in the city hoped that Gongye Ruoyun could defeat Meng Yuzhou, and save Jiuli City for the Gongye clan, and also save this paradise for them.
But they also knew that with Gongye Ruoyun's Nascent Soul Great Perfection, it was almost a fool's dream to defeat Meng Yuzhou, who was in the middle stage of the Spiritualization. Even
if the two were both in the middle stage of the Spiritualization, Gongye Ruoyun's weak personality, who would shed tears at any time, could never be a match for Meng Yuzhou.
More and more people gathered under the Jiuli Battle Stage, but the atmosphere became more and more depressing and sad.
"Q..." Another long ring of the ancient bell.
More than a dozen figures flew over, two young men among them landed on the Jiuli Battle Stage, and the others came to the spectator seats behind the stage and sat down.
Needless to say, the two young men on the stage were Meng Yuzhou and Gongye Ruoyun.
Half a month later, the wound on Meng Yuzhou's face had long healed. At this time, his face was cold and stern, and his straight figure was like a javelin pointing straight into the sky. Although the competition has not started yet, he has already revealed a fierce murderous intent.
The citizens on the Jiuli Battle Platform felt a chill in their bodies and took a half step back involuntarily.
Gongye Ruoyun looked the same as before, his face was still handsome and flawless, and his temperament was still elegant and refined.
If it were in the past, the people below the stage would probably be fascinated and couldn't help but praise him, but today, they couldn't praise him at all.
This competition is about strength, not a beauty pageant. No matter how beautiful you are or how outstanding your temperament is, what's the use?
Looking at Gongye Ruoyun's face that is so beautiful that even women envy it, their mood has become more depressed and more desperate.
"Lord Chi, why don't we have this competition?" Meng Chaohai said to Chi Wanqiu with a smile on his face on the viewing platform.
"What, is the head of the Meng family afraid?" Chi Wanqiu looked at him puzzledly, thinking that the old man probably didn't have anything good to say, so he didn't bother to be polite with him and said coldly.
"Yes, I am afraid. I am afraid that if Yu Zhou doesn't know how to control his strength and accidentally hurts nephew Ruoyun's face, how can our Meng family afford to pay for it?" Meng Chaohai said sarcastically.
"Meng Chaohai, what are you talking about!" Although she had guessed that this old man would not be able to spit out ivory from his dog's mouth, Chi Wanqiu was still furious when she saw Meng Chaohai's smile.
"Lord Chi, I am also thinking about you. Others may not know what nephew Ruoyun is capable of, but as a mother, don't you know it either? Why do you have to let him suffer?" Meng Chaohai continued.
"Meng Chaohai, just relying on your useless son, you want to hurt my Qilin, dream!
And you, an old man, actually want to take over Jiuli City, why don't you take a piss first and see what kind of character you are?" Chi Wanqiu put his hands on his hips and cursed again.
Gu Qingxi sat next to him and looked at Chi Wanqiu with admiration.
I thought that today's battle attracted everyone's attention, and Chi Wanqiu would be more restrained sitting on the viewing platform. However, I didn't expect that this city lord was still as fierce and tough as ever.
"Chi Wanqiu, I wanted to give Gongye Ruoyun a chance to live because of the friendship between the Meng family and the Gongye clan for so many years. Since you are so ungrateful, don't blame me for being heartless." When it comes to verbal battles, Meng Chaohai is obviously no match for this tough city lord. His old face turned blue with anger, and he said fiercely while flicking his sleeves.
"Master Meng, you should worry about your Meng Yuzhou first.
It's not too late for him to admit defeat now. If he waits until the competition starts, he will have no chance to admit defeat." Seeing that Chi Wanqiu was about to speak again, Gu Qingxi rushed to speak.
Although she was in awe of the city lord's toughness, she also noticed that many people in the audience were surprised, and their eyes looked at Chi Wanqiu strangely, and even looked at her strangely.
"Admit defeat, you think my Yuzhou will admit defeat? Hahahaha..." Meng Chaohai laughed up to the sky, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.
Not only him, but the people in the audience also looked at Gu Qingxi with strange eyes, which seemed to be a bit ridiculous.
With Gongye Ruoyun's strength, it might be a question whether he could walk off the competition stage alive, so how could Meng Yuzhou admit defeat?
Even if Gu Qingxi wanted to speak for the city lord, he couldn't just lie like that, right? It's
not shameful for cultivators to lose in a duel. But knowing that they will lose, and still being stubborn and lying with open eyes, it's really a bit shameful.
"�q..." The ancient and vast bell sounded again.
After three bells, the competition officially began.
Everyone put away their distracting thoughts and looked towards the stage with a solemn expression.
"Gongye Ruoyun, one sword, just one sword, I will let you know the gap between us!" Meng Yuzhou slowly drew out his long sword and raised a finger to Gongye Ruoyun with an arrogant look.
Looking at the familiar faces in the audience, he seemed to see the humiliating scene of being slapped by Gu Qingxi half a month ago. Compared with his grandfather, he wanted to save face more urgently.
Originally, he wanted to threaten Gongye Ruoyun a few words and force him to admit defeat, but his grandfather had already said it once and was scolded by Chi Wanqiu. Of course, he couldn't repeat it.
So he chose to use another method to regain his dignity, that is, to defeat Gongye Ruoyun with one sword!
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience felt depressed.
With Meng Yuzhou's strength, it is certainly not difficult to defeat Gongye Ruoyun, but it is not so easy to use only one sword.
It can be imagined how powerful and unstoppable the sword he is about to strike will be. How dangerous would this sword be for Gongye Ruoyun?
This sword not only determines the ownership of Jiuli City, but may also determine Gongye Ruoyun's life and death.
Looking at Meng Yuzhou standing proudly on the stage with a murderous aura, Chi Wanqiu's expression became more solemn than ever.
Although Gongye Ruoyun has successfully ascended to the God of Transformation, Gu Qingxi has repeatedly comforted her not to worry, but as a mother, how can she really let her heart go.
No one knows a son better than his mother. Chi Wanqiu knows her precious son too well.
When it comes to the talent of the Way of Weapons, Gongye Ruoyun has no rivals in the entire Jiuli Mingxu Realm, and even she, as a mother, is ashamed of herself. But when it comes to sword skills, it is really not worth mentioning.
And the worst thing is Gongye Ruoyun's bad habit of being teary-eyed at every turn. With such a weak personality, even the most powerful sword skills may not be able to exert 50% of their power in his hands.
To be honest, sometimes when seeing his precious son's pitiful look on the verge of tears, even Chi Wanqiu wanted to pin him to the ground and give him a good beating.
