The golden dragon of fortune roared as it flew towards Wang Teng's Starry Sky-Slaying Technique. The roar was deafening. Then, it coiled around the crescent-shaped Starry Sky-Slaying Technique and squeezed it forcefully. *Crack!* The Starry Sky-Slaying Technique was shattered by the immense pressure of the golden dragon of fortune, and then it rushed towards Wang Teng again, opening its massive maw as if to devour him.
Seeing this, Wang Teng panicked. His hands quickly formed hand seals, but before the secret technique was complete, the golden dragon of fortune flew to his side and bit him directly. Wang Teng instinctively tried to block with his hand, and with a tearing sound, a bloody right arm was ripped off, blood flowing freely. At this moment, Wang Teng's face was deathly pale, his left hand clutching his bleeding severed arm. He was extremely weak.
At this moment, Yuan Ruochu withdrew her golden dragon of fortune, looking down at the utterly defeated Wang Teng with disdain, and sneered, "You? You want to challenge the Divine Son? You're too weak..."
"You..." At this moment, Wang Teng's blood surged, his face turned red, and he spat out a mouthful of blood, fainting. Then, seeing his son's crushing defeat and severe injuries, the Wang family patriarch frowned, his aura pressing down on Yuan Ruochu. Yuan Ruochu was also nearly fainted by this sudden, terrifying pressure, struggling to hold on.
"How dare you!" an elder of the Yuan Clan roared, waving his hand at Yuan Ruochu. The terrifying aura pressing down on Yuan Ruochu vanished instantly. He then angrily rebuked the Wang Clan head, "Wang Clan head, do you intend to bully the weak?" The Wang Clan elder added, "This exchange meeting is supposed to be about mutual learning and exchange, but Yuan Ruochu's attack was far too heavy. Doesn't your Yuan Clan give us an explanation?" The Yuan Clan elder then sneered, "An explanation? My Yuan Clan never needs explanations. If you want to cause trouble, even if it's inappropriate to kill during the Divine Child's coming-of-age ceremony, I will still make you perish here." The Wang Clan head, only at the first level of the Saint Realm, was no match for the Yuan Clan elder, who was at the ninth level of the Saint Realm. Seeing the Yuan Clan's strength, he felt anger but could only suffer in silence. He then said to the Yuan Clan members, "My clan has other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave." He then left with the unconscious Wang Teng.
After this farce, Yuan Ruochu addressed the assembled prodigies and geniuses, asking, "Who else wishes to challenge my clan's divine son?"
"I!"
At this moment, a voice rang out, and Ji Jingtian slowly stood up.
"Ji Jingtian!" Yuan Ruochu stared intently at Ji Jingtian.
"You lost to me last time, do you want to taste defeat again this time?" Ji Jingtian's handsome face revealed a deep smile.
Yuan Ruochu coldly replied, "Hmph, I admit I was defeated by you, but you only relied on the power of the Emperor's Weapon. Without the Emperor's Weapon, your fate would be the same as that of Wang Teng."
Ji Jingtian continued to retort, "In battle, both the Great Emperor's Technique and the Great Emperor's Weapon are crucial factors for victory. If you're so capable, go get yourself a Great Emperor's Weapon, and we'll duel again. Too bad you don't have one. Haha."
"You..." Yuan Ruochu was speechless with anger at Ji Jingtian's demeanor. He didn't possess an Emperor Weapon, as he was over sixteen and ineligible to participate in the Heavenly Dao Ancient Tablet rankings. Otherwise, Yuan Ruochu could definitely have secured a top-three position. He also considered asking the Ancestor for an Emperor Weapon to suppress this arrogant man.
Just then, Yuan Zhexian's voice rang out.
"Brother Ruochu, the battle just now and the oppressive aura of the Wang family patriarch must have greatly depleted your spiritual energy. Why don't you go down first, and I'll take over this battle."
As soon as Yuan Zhexian finished speaking, the crowd erupted in an uproar. Was the Yuan Clan's divine son about to make a move? Were the top three peerless forbidden prodigies from the two ancient Heavenly Dao sects about to clash?
Without waiting for Yuan Ruochu's reply, Yuan Zhexian slowly walked out and came to Ji Jingtian's side, looking at Ji Jingtian and saying, "Ji Jingtian, the divine son of the Ji family, is that right?"
“Exactly,” Ji Jingtian replied confidently.
At this moment, Ji Tianming, the head of the Ji family, was deeply moved upon seeing Yuan Zhexian's arrival and looking at the son of the man he had always wanted to defeat. However, upon hearing Yuan Zhexian's words, his emotions vanished, replaced by rage.
"I heard you've been wanting to challenge me lately! Are you never going to stop? Looks like you really want to fight me. Do you even have the strength to fight me, Yuan Zhexian? Am I being too kind to you?"
"Back then, your father challenged my father several times, and he was defeated every time. What? Do you want to repeat your father's mistakes?"
Ji Jingtian said confidently, "Whether we'll repeat the same mistakes or not, we'll know after the battle." After saying that, he stepped inside the light barrier.
"Sigh..." Yuan Zhexian sighed and shook his head, saying, "Why must we seek out setbacks?" Then he flashed into the light barrier.
Then, Ji Jingtian's spiritual power surged. His aura also became violent. Countless black spatial rifts appeared inside the light barrier.
Looking at the countless spatial rifts, someone said, "This is the true Ji Family Great Void Scripture." Ji Jingtian's spatial rifts were not only much larger than those created by Wang Teng, but their aura and power were also far superior.
Just after Ji Jingtian unleashed his Great Void Technique, he also shot a beam of light towards the spatial rift. The beam of light entered the spatial rift, continuously shifting through countless rifts before finally shooting straight towards Yuan Zhexian from one of them.
Seeing the beam of light shooting towards him, Yuan Zhexian simply turned slightly to the side, easily dodging it. Then, Ji Jingtian, his body radiating purple light, raised his hand and unleashed another beam of light towards a spatial rift. After the light entered the spatial rift, the purple light at the center of all the rifts intensified, and then countless beams of light shot out from the rifts towards Yuan Zhexian.
