The man opposite Yan Zhi initially thought that she looked weak and frail and wanted to talk to her. He offered to let her go if they made some concessions. But when he saw Yan Zhi take out two axes, his throat suddenly went dry and he began to swallow. "Calm down! Don't come any closer!"
Yan Zhi snorted coldly, her eyes flashing with icy light as she looked at the man in front of her. "I'll show you what it's like to bully me!"
As he spoke, the large axe flew towards the man.
Xu Yuehuai found it very novel, as it was the first time she had ever seen it. In the end, Yan Zhi successfully entered the top twenty, but because she had used up too much energy earlier, she did not have much energy to conserve later on and only got third place.
Xu Yuehuai didn't recognize anyone in the second match, but having learned from the mistakes of the first match, everyone in this match fought faster, hoping to be in their best form when facing the final enemy.
Ji Yuanchi was in the third round. Before the competition started, she cheered herself on, saying, "Don't worry, I'm sure I can make it into the top five!"
After cheering herself on, Ji Yuanchi went on stage. Xu Yuehuai and Pu Erge stared intently at the stage, observing who her opponents were. When they saw Fu Mu in this competition, their expressions immediately turned grim.
Fu Mu naturally didn't expect to run into Ji Yuanchi. He gave Ji Yuanchi a provocative and malicious look, then turned to look at Xu Yuehuai and Pu Erge sitting below the stage.
Pu Erge couldn't sit still and was about to get up when Xu Yuehuai grabbed him, saying, "Don't panic. This is the effect he wants to see. We can't let him get arrogant."
Pu Erge glanced at Xu Yuehuai and saw that she had a calm and composed expression. He wondered if she was really good friends with Ji Yuanchi.
Xu Yuehuai's words had some effect. Pu Erge realized he had lost his composure and quickly sat down, pretending to straighten his clothes as if nothing had happened.
Fu Mu looked at the three of them but didn't see the expression he was looking for, and he was a little dissatisfied. Meanwhile, a boy in the corner quietly watched the undercurrents between the four of them and found it extremely amusing.
Fu Mu walked up to Ji Yuanchi and said with a wicked smile, "Ji Yuanchi, do you think the Pu family would say anything if I killed you on the stage?"
Ji Yuanchi looked at his arrogant and boastful words and sneered, "You're thinking too much. I won't give you that chance, but you'd better watch out. I didn't kill you last time, but this time it might be different."
Fu Mu's face was gloomy. When Ji Yuanchi mentioned the last time, he had already found the Fu family during his rest period and had his genitals treated to temporarily relieve the pain. However, according to what the doctor said, his manhood would definitely be affected in the future. Thinking of this, Fu Mu's face turned as black as ink, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
"The third round of the arena competition is officially starting!" A whistleblower blew his whistle after checking and confirming that all the contestants had taken the stage, announcing the start of the competition.
As soon as the command was given, Fu Mu rushed towards Ji Yuanchi without hesitation, and the people on the stage started fighting in twos and threes. Only the boy in the corner was not someone that many people dared to provoke.
"Hey, why isn't anyone going to beat up that boy?" Elder Yan naturally noticed this and asked in confusion.
"Isn't he the one who manipulated the ghosts and seized the flag in the first round? He clearly had a chance to get a higher ranking, but he ended up with 150th place." Elder Zhan said, shaking his head. "If you ask me, he's just trying to attract attention."
Elder Zhan's eyes held a hint of disapproval, and his gaze toward Fu Ziyi even carried a hint of disdain.
Upon hearing this, Dean Zhong couldn't help but speak up to defend his disciple, "Ziyi is indeed eccentric, but this is probably a common quirk among most geniuses. So I hope that the elders will not make any judgments about him because of this."
The seven people who came were all elders from various sects and forces, and these sects and forces were also ranked.
Among the sects that came this time, the Zhentian Clan ranked first, and the leader of the team was Elder Zhi, who had just taken charge of the overall situation.
Qingtao Valley was ranked last, and its leader was Elder Zisang.
The audience below was buzzing with discussion, while on stage, the fight was in full swing. Ji Yuanchi usually practiced swordsmanship with Xu Yuehuai and benefited greatly from it. The sword she held in her hand was extremely beautiful, with a winding serpent on its blade.
Ji Yuanchi opened his sword and slashed horizontally at Fu Mu. Fu Mu bent down to dodge while closing in on Ji Yuanchi. His weapon was a dagger, used for close combat.
Ji Yuanchi naturally noticed this as well. He had never seen him make a move before, so his understanding of how to deal with Mu Shili was not very deep.
When Ji Yuanchi saw the dagger, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
While attacking him, avoid getting close to Fu Mu.
Fu Mu's fluid and graceful moves were completely ineffective against Ji Yuanchi.
The two faced off on the stage for a long time without a clear winner. Judging from their appearance, Ji Yuanchi was an alchemist, while Fu Mu was a body cultivator. If they were to fight to a draw, Ji Yuanchi would definitely be more powerful.
Fu Mu naturally thought of this as well. When he saw that the number of people on stage had decreased sharply and that it was almost impossible to eliminate Ji Yuanchi, his eyes darkened and he began to launch a more intense attack on Ji Yuanchi.
Fu Mu was like a madman, scratching Ji Yuanchi from various angles every time, and dodging away immediately every time Ji Yuanchi attacked.
Longswords are not suitable for close combat.
When Ji Yuanchi had about ten wounds of varying sizes, she finally lost her temper, summoned her longsword back, and pulled out a large knife. Her eyes were filled with anger as she looked at Fu Mu, "Don't you like close combat? Then I'll play with you and see if your dagger is faster or my large knife is faster!"
Fu Ziyi watched from the sidelines as Ji Yuanchi actually wielded a broadsword, finding it even more amusing. He remained an observer throughout the entire performance, neither offering help nor causing any trouble.
Xu Yuehuai and Pu Erge sat below, and when they saw so many wounds on Ji Yuanchi's body, their faces both darkened in unison. "I don't think Fu Mu needs to continue living."
Pu Erge said calmly. The people around them looked at the two of them as if they were monsters. It was terrifying that someone could decide a person's life or death in just a few words.
At first, Ji Yuanchi was at a disadvantage with the big knife, but she quickly adapted and reversed the situation, taking the upper hand. Fu Mu was shocked and barely dodged Ji Yuanchi's fatal blow.
