After the black and gray smoke dissipated, the scene of the outcome finally appeared in front of everyone, and it turned out to be a tragic victory for the Zixiao Sect.
There was a wound across Chen Binyu's shoulder, tearing the shoulder blade. The wound was very deep, staining most of his white robe red, and it absorbed enough blood to drip down the robe.
Zhongli Tingzhou was not as miserable as Chen Binyu, but not much better off. His face was as pale as paper, and he didn't seem to have that many wounds on his body. It was just that his spiritual power had been used up, and he had some sequelae.
Although it was a miserable victory, the fact that he was able to defeat Chen Binyu, who had reached the state of Out-of-Body Great Perfection, has already proved his strength. He defeated someone who was stronger than him, and was two small realms stronger than him. He is undoubtedly a top genius.
"Great, our uncle-master won!" Upon seeing this scene, the disciples of Zixiao Sect cheered instantly. Our uncle-master had secured a purple gold medal.
"No wonder our great-grand-uncle has to guard the two purple gold medals by himself. It turns out he is so powerful!" Senior Brother Zhou said excitedly.
"I've said it before, how could a disciple of Grand Master Uncle not have some skills?"
"I have long wanted to see the Supreme Sect get slapped in the face. Now it has finally come true. Let's see if the perennial runner-up dares to provoke us again!"
Feng Xinxing and other geniuses also showed faint smiles. Winning this battle was not just about keeping the purple gold medal, but also about spreading the reputation of Zixiao Sect.
The Jishang Sect has always wanted to replace the Zixiao Sect and become the largest sect in the Lingtian Continent. It has been watching the Zixiao Sect covetously for many years and has provoked the Zixiao Sect countless times.
This time, although it was just a fight between two disciples in the Out-of-Body Stage, it was enough to illustrate that the strength and confidence of the Zixiao Sect, the largest sect, was something that the Jishang Sect could never catch up with.
Compared with the excited cheers from Zixiao Sect, the Jishang Sect was in a gloomy mood, whether it was the disciples or the elders outside the barrier.
"Admit defeat." Elder Jiang's flat voice reached Chen Binyu's ears from outside the barrier.
"Elder, I can still fight!" Chen Binyu's eyes were red with anger. He was unwilling to accept and was unconvinced. There was no way he could lose to the other party. Something must have gone wrong here.
"You are the future of the Jishang Sect. It doesn't matter if you lose now. There will always be opportunities later." Elder Jiang looked at Zhongli Tingzhou with a hint of coldness, and there seemed to be something else he wanted to say.
Chen Binyu understood it. He was extremely unwilling to accept it, but what Elder Jiang said was right. He still had a chance to take revenge. Once he entered the Wanxiandao, life and death there would not be controlled by outsiders. He must kill Zhongli Tingzhou inside to avenge his shame.
"I give up." Chen Binyu said this and returned to the Jishang Sect's camp without looking back.
“Elder, in this case, Ji Shang Sect won’t be able to obtain even a single purple gold medal. Then what about the Wan Xian Dao…” Sect Master Chu’s face was as gloomy as water.
"Let's talk about Wanxiandao. Zixiao Sect wants two purple gold medals, and no sect or force will agree. Let's wait and see. Even if we don't take action, they will." Elder Jiang had already thought about it.
Upon hearing this, Sect Leader Chu stopped talking and stared coldly at everyone in the Zixiao Sect.
"It seems that Ji Shang Sect has not given up yet." Hou Wanshan said in a deep voice after noticing the gaze of Sect Master Chu.
"It's okay. All they can think of is to take action in Wanxiandao tomorrow. The situations there are different every time. As long as Xinxing and Jiao Yan are united, Jishang Sect will not find a chance to take action." Chang Tianya said with a smile.
"I'm afraid they will separate for some reason, giving other sects a chance to take action," said Elder Sun.
Chang Tianya smiled and said, "The Path of Ten Thousand Immortals is an opportunity, but it also has dangers. I'll just leave it to fate. If I get it, I'm lucky. If I lose it, it's my fate. It doesn't matter. Everything is fate."
Everyone bowed gently to him.
As soon as Chen Binyu admitted defeat, the second challenge came to an end. Everyone immediately came to Zhongli Tingzhou, and Yu Zilang touched him excitedly.
"Uncle Master, you are really good. It is true that a real person never reveals his true colors."
Zhongli Tingzhou suddenly spat out blood and his face became even paler than before.
Yu Zilang was stunned for a moment. Facing everyone's condemning gazes, he quickly explained: "It wasn't me. I didn't use any force."
"How could we not know whether you used force or not? You know your own strength, yet you still tried to touch our great-grandmaster. Don't you know that our great-grandmaster has just fought a bloody battle and is weak now?" Pei Zhenghai took the opportunity to criticize him.
"Pei Zhenghai, that's enough." Yu Zilang could see that he was taking the opportunity to talk about him.
Gao Han couldn't help but glance at Zhongli Tingzhou. Is he still acting?
Zhongli Tingzhou blinked and looked back. He was not acting. He just accidentally spat out blood.
"Can we continue with the third challenge?" Feng Xinxing asked with some concern.
Zhongli Tingzhou wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve and smiled confidently: "Of course, we have already secured the first purple gold medal, so we must also secure the second one."
"In fact, it's good to have one. There's no need to lose your life for a purple gold medal." If he hadn't been injured so badly, he could have looked forward to it, but now that he was injured like this, Feng Xinxing didn't think he had the strength left to defeat the second opponent.
"What a pity! If the opportunity had not been used up, we would have definitely been able to keep the two purple gold medals this time." Pei Zhenghai slammed his palm with regret.
Jiao Yan said calmly: "Two purple gold medals will make us public enemies, so losing one may not be a bad thing."
"Jiao Yan is right, uncle-master, your spiritual power has been exhausted. Even if you start to recover now, you will never be able to return to its peak. Your next opponent will be a cultivator who has reached the state of Out-of-Body Great Perfection. Those who challenge you to reach the state of Out-of-Body Great Perfection are all geniuses. They are not ordinary cultivators who have reached the state of Great Perfection. If you want to defeat them, you cannot do without recovering a little spiritual power." Lei Xinyue said calmly.
"Besides, it's not impossible to win back the purple gold medal. We can just snatch it back. If you're worried about not being able to snatch it back, we'll keep the crystal diamond medals and gold and black medals for you." Feng Xinxing said again.
"No need. Now that it has been given out, we will not take it back." Gao Han said on behalf of Zhongli Tingzhou.
"Aren't you worried about the safety of your uncle-master?" Lei Xinyue frowned.
"You underestimate him. He just looks weak, but he can actually still fight. I remember that there can be a few minutes interval between the three challenges, right?" Gao Han looked at Feng Xinxing.
"Yes, it can be done in quarters of an hour." Feng Xinxing replied, a little curious about what he wanted to do.
"Then if I want to challenge others, that's fine too, right?" Gao Han said as he looked in the direction of Ji Shang Sect.
Everyone followed his line of sight and saw the disciples of Jishang Sect. Feng Xinxing was stunned for a moment, "You want to challenge the disciples of Jishang Sect?"
"Isn't it possible?" Gao Han asked back.
"Of course, but I don't think it's necessary." Feng Xinxing understood a little. He might want to boost his momentum, but his situation was different from that of his uncle Zhongli.
Although both of them are in the out-of-body stage, the gap between the two small realms can be overcome by finding ways to do so. However, the power gap between the Nascent Soul Great Perfection stage and the out-of-body stage cannot be made up no matter what.
This is a natural gap.
"You want to challenge that Ge Haoming? He is useless and has only a few house numbers on him." Zhongli Tingzhou said calmly while taking drugs to restore his spiritual power.
"It doesn't matter. My target is not the house number on his body." Gao Han said.
“It would be helpful to get a few more house numbers for Zixiao Sect.” Yuan Ran added subconsciously.
"Yuanran." Feng Xinxing shouted softly. What's wrong with his junior brother? He is usually not very steady, and this time he encouraged his uncle to challenge a higher level.
Challenging opponents of higher levels sounds exciting, but it is difficult to actually do. Even for a genius, the risk is huge.
Yuan Ran only reacted after his senior brother told him that, and couldn't help feeling annoyed. Yes, he should have followed his senior brothers' lead in persuading Gao Han not to do this.
"Gao Han, that Ge Haoming is quite annoying, but can't this matter be delayed? With your training speed, it's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge."
Yu Zilang and Pei Zhenghai's mouth twitched. Ten days is not too late?
"I know my limits," Gao Han said.
Seeing that he was unmoved and could not be persuaded, everyone knew that he had made up his mind.
Gao Han walked out after he finished speaking, looking at Ge Haoming across from him, and said loudly: "Ge Haoming, do you have the courage to come out and fight me?"
The crowd watching were all stunned. Did they hear it right? A Yuanying Great Perfection cultivator from Zixiao Sect was going to challenge a late Out-of-Body Stage cultivator from Jishang Sect?
The Zixiao Sect had just won a counterattack and fought a beautiful battle. What was it doing now? Were they trying to lose back the reputation they had just won?
"Junior sister, is your lover going to commit suicide?" Lu Si was stunned for a moment and said to Kong Fengjun in disbelief.
Kong Fengjun was also a little shocked, and didn't even have time to react and refute when Senior Sister Lu mentioned her sweetheart.
"What exactly is the Zixiao Sect planning? Aren't Feng Xinxing and Jiao Yan going to stop it?" Ling Ziyin was speechless.
“Maybe they have another strategy?”
"That's nonsense. How can this kind of challenge, which anyone with a discerning eye would lose, be a strategy? Let a Yuanying Great Perfection person attack Jishang Sect again? It would be better to send other people. The chances are higher."
Ji Shang Zong Zheng was in a gloomy mood. Ge Haoming never expected that he would be named by Gao Han. This man, whom he had long wanted to skin alive, was so confused for a moment that he did not react in time. Could it be that he was thinking too much and hearing hallucinations?
"Ge Haoming, go out and kill him." Wen Hongru's tone was filled with murderous intent without any fluctuations.
Ge Haoming was startled and realized that it was true and he had not heard it wrong.
"Yes, kill him!" Chen Binyu reacted instantly and said with a grim face.
“Senior Brother Ge, he, who has reached the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul, is actually seeking his own death. You should help him and send him to meet the ancestors of the Zixiao Sect!” Wei Hong said grimly.
"Don't worry, everyone. It won't take more than two quarters of an hour to get to the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul. I can get rid of him in one quarter of an hour and send him to meet his death!"
Ge Haoming suppressed his excitement and instantly realized that his chance had come, a chance for revenge, and a chance to win favor in front of the elders of the Jishang Sect.
"Go ahead. Whether Jishang Sect can restore its reputation depends on you."
Ge Haoming, who had a mission, immediately came to Gao Han and said with a wicked smile: "You are courting death. I haven't challenged you yet, but you are actually seeking death. I can't wait to start. Don't beg for mercy and ask me to let you go."
"Don't worry, I won't beg for mercy. I bet the crystal diamond number plate on me and all the number plates on you. Do you dare?" Gao Han looked very calm.
"What is there to be afraid of? If you want to give me the crystal diamond doorplate, why would I push it away?" There was greed in Ge Haoming's eyes. All the doorplates he had were less than twenty black cards, which were already very few. If he could win a crystal diamond card and enter the Wanxian Road, he should be able to get a good opportunity.
"Let's start." Ge Haoming couldn't help but take out all the house numbers on his body and threw them on a big rock on the ground.
Gao Han also took out the crystal diamond card and threw it over. Whoever wins can take these away.
Ge Haoming rushed over almost the moment he threw the crystal diamond cards.
"Despicable, he actually attacked by surprise!" Junior Brother Nan cursed involuntarily.
"This kind of challenge without too many clear rules is just like that. You can only rely on yourself to be alert in advance and watch carefully. There should be something worth learning from the next battle." Yuan Ran gave another reminder after explaining.
Junior Brother Nan immediately stared at the battlefield, but he didn't expect that the situation in the battlefield changed after his gaze was only shifted away for a short while.
Ge Haoming, who took the lead in attacking Gao Han, did not gain the upper hand and was quickly counterattacked. The speed of the two swords colliding was not much slower than the previous battle.
Gao Han continued with the close combat that he was best at, pressing Ge Haoming closely. The spiritual power in his body was running madly to the extreme. As he swung his sword, spiritual energy was constantly absorbed by him, and a weak vortex seemed to be blowing on his body.
Ge Haoming was shocked, but when he reacted and wanted to take back the initiative, he found that he couldn't do it. Just dealing with his opponent's hand was enough to make him overwhelmed, and the opponent's momentum was rising.
"wrong!"
