Lin Han could only sit quietly, watching the competition in full swing.
At this moment, the cultivators who were guarding the border discovered that the demon army, which had been suffering repeated defeats, had suddenly regained its strength and was beginning to break through to the border.
The border guard commander frowned as he watched this scene.
"Pass the order down to everyone to activate Level 1 defense mode," the guard commander commanded.
She looked at the leather-bound blueprints on the wall, marked the state where Qingxuan Sect was located, and said softly, "The world is about to descend into chaos again."
Lin Han was unaware of all of this.
Seeing the lively competition underway, he felt a little relieved, but he remained wary of Liang Hu.
"Now, the list of participants for the second round will be announced." After tallying everyone's wins and losses, the referee began to randomly assign opponents.
A list of names flashed across the sky before finally coming to a slow stop.
At this moment, Mu Yan quickly found his name and saw that he was facing off against Lin Xing. After thinking for a moment, he realized that he did not recognize her, so he decisively gave up thinking about it.
The matches went on one after another, and the number of participants dwindled until finally, when only ten people remained, Mu Yan faced off against Jiang Hai.
When Elder Gong of the Elders' District saw that Jiang Hai had finally confronted Mu Yan, he was overjoyed.
Lin Han simply watched Elder Gong, who was now smug and proud, waiting for him to be proven wrong.
Soon, Mu Yan took the stage.
As soon as he stepped onto the stage, Jiang Hai looked at him provocatively, and Mu Yan had no idea what Jiang Hai was so smug about.
Jiang Hai made the first move when the referee announced the start of the match.
He leaped up, whip in his right hand, and lashed out fiercely at Mu Yan.
But Mu Yan is no longer the same as before. He used to be able to hit him, but now he can easily avoid it.
Then, imitating him, she used the power of wood to conjure a whip with barbs all over it.
Mu Yan raised his hand and struck Jiang Hai. The vine whip made a whistling sound in the air, and even though Jiang Hai dodged immediately, he was still struck by Mu Yan.
Next, Mu Yan unilaterally beat up Jiang Hai.
He imitated Jiang Hai's actions from last time, whipping him hard. Even as Jiang Hai fell to the ground, Mu Yan continued whipping him until he saw that the wounds on Jiang Hai's body were no less than his own from that day. Only then did Mu Yan stop whipping him.
Jiang Hai saw Mu Yan retract his whip and walk towards him, but he fell to his knees due to the pain.
At this moment, Jiang Hai felt a great humiliation. Looking at Mu Yan who was getting closer and closer to him, he put his hands behind his back, silently recited the mantra, and suddenly a strong wind rose on the field, and dust flew up in an instant.
To prevent the dust from reaching the spectators, the referees set up a protective shield outside the playing area to ensure the safety of those outside the arena.
Inside the protective shield, the wind and sand blinded Mu Yan, and his vision was also obstructed. In a moment of distraction, when Mu Yan looked back at where Jiang Hai was, Jiang Hai was no longer there.
Mu Yan sensed a figure flashing through the air. Such a trivial trick could not deceive Mu Yan at all. He quickly locked onto the figure and followed it with his eyes.
Gradually, the strong wind stopped blowing, and the figures stopped moving. But at this moment, Jiang Hai and Mu Yan were no longer the only two on the field. Instead, more than thirty identical Jiang Hais appeared on the field.
They said in unison, "Mu Yan, do you think I'm so easily defeated?"
Looking at the thirty-odd rivers and seas, Mu Yan quickly scanned them and found that they were indistinguishable in appearance.
But Mu Yan was not intimidated. He calmly observed, but Jiang Hai would not let him have his way. When he saw Mu Yan observing carefully, Jiang Hai quickly made a move and attacked Mu Yan.
Originally, with only one person, Mu Yan could easily defeat Jiang Hai. But now there are more than thirty people, and each of them launches the same attack. The arena is only so big, which makes it difficult for Mu Yan to dodge.
Jiang Hai and his clone launched a unified attack on Mu Yan, with countless blue lights shooting towards him.
Mu Yan could only hold his sword and keep defending, while also constantly observing the situation.
"Mu Yan, just give up! I've practiced my clone technique for years, how could you possibly figure it out so easily? Die!" Jiang Hai said viciously to Mu Yan, who was still trying to find his weakness.
Then countless wind blades materialized and flew towards Mu Yan.
No matter how nimbly he dodged, Mu Yan still managed to get a cut on his arm. Adhering to the principle that it's better to have one less than one more, Mu Yan raised his sword and randomly slashed at Jiang Hai.
In an instant, he vanished from the face of the earth, but soon, thirty clones emerged from the center of the murdered Jiang Hai.
At this moment, the field was filled with a dense crowd of people, all using the same moves and attacking in unison, creating an extremely spectacular scene.
Under wave after wave of attacks, Mu Yan gradually became exhausted, but still could not find Jiang Hai's true form.
Seeing that Jiang Hai was preparing to launch the final attack, a thought suddenly flashed through Mu Yan's mind.
"Mu Yan, sometimes your eyes can deceive you; don't trust them too much."
"All things in the world can be seen not only by the eyes, but also by the mind."
"The only way to defeat an opponent is to defeat their belief."
Lin Han's earnest teachings to Mu Yan in the past came to mind, which suddenly enlightened Mu Yan, who was at a loss.
Close your eyes and, as Lin Han instructed, try to feel with your heart.
When Jiang Hai saw that Mu Yan had closed his eyes and was standing still, he thought that he had given up struggling and was about to go up and end him with a sword when Mu Yan suddenly opened his eyes.
