Chapter 539
The last defense battle was the most intense, but there were also three quietest arenas, namely Duan Linzhi, Su Tianfeng and Feng Shixi.
After adjusting his breath, Feng Shixi did not make any more rash advances. Instead, he picked a weaker warrior to come up to the stage and knocked him off the stage. After that, he kept guarding the stage. Although he was defeated by Duan Linzhi, his strength as a martial saint did not allow any warrior to come up to challenge him without knowing his own limitations.
In the other seven arenas, the warriors defending the arenas and competing for the championship were mostly at the eighth or ninth level of generals. The competition was extremely fierce, and the audience below the stage cheered. In the end, the warrior who remained on the arena successfully defended the arena.
After the one hundred champions went back to rest for a night, they returned to the competition venue the next day and saw that there was only one arena left in the center of the competition venue.
Ji Peilan stepped forward to announce the rules for the finals. Hua Wenmeng saw this woman stepping forward and said, "This woman is definitely going to cause trouble again. She has bad intentions."
As expected, Ji Peilan announced: "In the final, one hundred champions will enter the ring to fight in a melee, and the last ten warriors left on the ring will be the winners."
As soon as the rules were announced, everyone in the audience gasped. Previous boxing matches were not like this, so why did they change the rules this time?
Hua Wenmeng said, "As expected, I knew that this woman's coming out would definitely be bad news. Zhai Xiaoba, will Brother Duan be okay?"
This kind of melee is obviously very disadvantageous to Duan Linzhi, because it can be seen from the previous ring battle that after rounds of eliminations, the final champion will definitely be Duan Linzhi, as he is the strongest one. But now it has turned into a melee, those warriors who are afraid of him will probably unite first and knock Duan Linzhi off the stage first. In the end, this strongest man will not even make it into the top ten.
Yuan Jing said unhappily: "This woman is deliberately targeting Brother Duan."
He was very unhappy. Although he knew that Duan Linzhi would not lose, the feeling of being forced was very bad. He knew that this woman wanted Duan Linzhi to beg her deliberately.
"Eighth brother, what should we do now?" Zhai Yuanhao asked anxiously.
Yuan Jing: "Cold."
Zhai Yuanhao: ...What do you mean?
As soon as the rules were announced, the champions quickly jumped onto the stage and quickly formed their own teams. A large number of warriors gathered around Feng Shixi, while only the disciples of the Xingjian Sect followed Duan Linzhi. The rest watched in twos and threes, and then each chose a team, but did not choose to stand with Duan Linzhi. It was obvious that they could see the situation clearly. These warriors headed by Feng Shixi were determined to get rid of Duan Linzhi in the first round of melee, no matter how despicable the means were, as long as the goal was achieved.
"It seems that Feng Shixi has received the news a long time ago." Looking at the situation in the stands, Yuan Jing guessed the truth. As expected, the woman deliberately targeted Duan Linzhi and specially sent the news to Feng Shixi in advance.
A group of warriors who followed Su Tianfeng also gathered around him. After seeing the situation clearly, he guessed the truth behind it just like Yuan Jing. He curled his lips, then raised his foot and walked towards Duan Linzhi.
When he moves, the warriors following him will of course move as well.
"Brother Duan, how about we join forces?"
Of course, he could see what Yuan Jing could see. Like Yuan Jing, he had already put Ji Peilan on their death list. Duan Linzhi raised his eyebrows at Su Tianfeng's choice and nodded in response, "Okay, let's join forces."
Su Tianfeng's choice caused an uproar on and off the stage. It was so unexpected. No one expected that Su Tianfeng would choose to join forces with Duan Linzhi. They thought that Su Tianfeng would work with Feng Shixi to get Duan Linzhi off the stage first.
Su Tianfeng's choice changed the situation on the ring abruptly. Feng Shixi's eyes became sharper. He raised his voice and asked, "Su Tianfeng, do you really want to make this choice?"
He thought that Su Tianfeng should have a tacit understanding with him to get Duan Linzhi off the stage first, and then they would fight it out between themselves. However, this guy's choice was beyond his expectations. He actually chose to stand on Duan Linzhi's side. This made Feng Shixi unhappy and uneasy. He could guarantee that Duan Linzhi would be solved by bringing a group of people together, but with the two martial saints Duan Linzhi and Su Tianfeng joining forces, he was not very confident.
Damn it, if he had known earlier he should have had a good talk with Su Tianfeng last night.
"Feng Shixi," Su Tianfeng raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't worry, I'm not that mean. I will choose to let you stay until the end. This is the fairest way. Brother Duan, what do you think?"
"Can."
Su Tianfeng burst into laughter. No matter how he looked at it, Duan Linzhi's mind was much broader than Feng Shixi's. But he would not let Feng Shixi get his wish.
The battle on the stage was about to break out, and some people had not decided which side to stand on. The two largest groups on the stage started fighting. It was a melee, and people were often knocked out of the ring. It was extremely brutal. Seeing this, the small group of people joined Duan Linzhi and Su Tianfeng without hesitation, to avoid that these people turning their guns against them after winning. After all, if they were in the same camp, they should have some face.
"Great, good fight!" The warriors in the audience cried out like ghosts and wolves. What's the point of expected development? It's fun to have something unexpected like this one.
Duan Linzhi and Su Tianfeng tacitly stopped Feng Shixi from making a move, otherwise he would have eliminated those generals with one blow. Except for intercepting when they saw someone trying to kill him, they did not make a move at other times, which made other warriors fight more freely.
Indeed, that is only fair.
Feng Shixi was furious. Not to mention that he was no match for Duan Linzhi in the first place, and now with the addition of that bastard Su Tianfeng, Feng Shixi was completely powerless to deal with the current situation.
The warriors of Fenghua Country could do nothing but call Su Tianfeng a bastard for being disloyal. However, their scolding was immediately mocked by Su Tianfeng's followers. Why should Su Tianfeng stand in the same camp with Feng Shixi? Why can't he join forces with Duan Linzhi? Who are you, Feng Shixi? Why should Su Tianfeng listen to him?
Compared with Feng Shixi, Master Tianfeng is much more open and honest. Can't they see that Feng Shixi likes to play dirty?
The other warriors were watching the fun. Hua Wenmeng was laughing: "Interesting, it's interesting only when it's like this. Su Tianfeng is also interesting. That woman must be so angry that her mouth is crooked."
Yuan Jing curled the corners of his mouth. This incident gave him a good impression of Su Tianfeng. In his opinion, it was impossible for Su Tianfeng not to see the collusion between Feng Shixi and the envoy. He still chose to stand on Duan Linzhi's side, and his position was very clear.
At the end of the melee, except for the three Martial Saints, the remaining seven warriors were quickly decided. Duan Linzhi and Su Tianfeng made it clear that they would not help either side, so the remaining seven warriors did not belong to the same force. Even from the Xingjian Sect, there was only one person left at the end, and that was a warrior who had reached the ninth level of military general, and his strength was obvious to all.
All parties were very happy with the result, which was much fairer than expected, except Fenghua Country and Feng Shixi who were very dissatisfied. Feng Shixi originally wanted to use this opportunity to win the most places for Fenghua Country. He had made a plan. The first step was to join forces with Su Tianfeng to eliminate Duan Linzhi, and then get rid of Su Tianfeng. Then this arena would be his, Feng Shixi's home court, and he would have the final say on who to keep and who to eliminate.
But the good plan was ruined by Su Tianfeng. He not only hated Duan Linzhi, but also hated Su Tianfeng.
When the last ten people were competing for the ranking, the fight between Feng Shixi and Su Tianfeng was the most intense. Everyone could see that Feng Shixi was really angry. When the two were fighting to a draw and their energy was almost exhausted, Feng Shixi suddenly used a talisman to knock Su Tianfeng off the stage.
"What kind of talisman is so powerful?"
"Hehe, it must be a good stuff that has been passed down from the upper realm. Feng Shixi really used shady tricks and won unfairly." The talisman contained a blow equivalent to the power of a Martial Emperor. Even the formation protecting the arena was shaking.
"But the weapon in Su Tianfeng's hand was also passed down from the upper realm. It can only be said that Su Tianfeng couldn't get anything better. He was always one step behind."
"Oh, even if Feng Shixi has these good things, he is still defeated by Duan Linzhi. It's useless."
After Feng Shixi's injuries were healed and he had recovered, he went up to the arena again to compete with Duan Lin for the strongest person. At the end of the fight, he wanted to use the same trick again, but unfortunately Duan Lin's sword was too fast and he didn't have the chance to activate the talisman. He was swept off the stage with one clean move.
This made many warriors realize that relying on external power is ultimately not as good as one's own strength. Duan Linzhi deserved the first place in the competition. He is the strongest of the younger generation in the Xuanwu Continent, and no one can deny this title after the ring competition.
Su Tianfeng gave up challenging Duan Linzhi. Not only because he was seriously injured, he also knew that he was no match for Duan Linzhi. He hoped to compete with Duan Linzhi after he recovered from his injuries. Duan Linzhi replied with a "yes", which made Su Tianfeng laugh so hard that the wound on his body split again.
The Jinchi Kingdom was very proud this time. Among the top ten, in addition to Duan Linzhi and another disciple of the Xingjian Sect, Jin Huang of the royal family also entered the top ten. Among the eight empires, the Jinchi Kingdom alone obtained three places in the top ten. Compared with the Jinchi Kingdom, the Shenying Kingdom and the Wushuang Sect had no place in the top ten. This result made the Emperor of the Jinchi Kingdom smile all day long and feel very happy.
After a day's rest, it was time for various skill competitions. The first one was alchemy, followed by talismans, formations, and weapon skills. Among them, alchemy was the most popular. Although not as intense and exciting as the ring competition, alchemists are sought after no matter where they are, and good alchemists are the rarest. I wonder if there will be a dark horse in this alchemy competition, like Duan Linzhi from the Star Sword Sect.
Just like everyone originally thought that the champion of the competition would be decided between Feng Shixi and Su Tianfeng, but who could have thought that it would fall to Duan Linzhi in the end, causing the warriors who had previously bet on these two people to lose a large amount of Yuanshi, while Hua Wenmeng and Zhai Yuanhao were extremely excited because they had bet on Duan Linzhi.
