As he spoke, Fu Yunzi walked out, surrounded by the leaders of the various sects.

“Look, is that Senior Fu Yunzi?”

“The competition is about to begin. Sit up straight and don’t embarrass the Divine Hall!”

“I really didn’t expect that Senior Fu Yunzi would be able to personally attend this Martial Competition.”

“After all, he was once a disciple of the Cloud Sect, so it’s reasonable for him to come and support the Cloud Sect.”

“I heard from my brothers in the Cloud Sect that Senior Fu Yunzi might want to take this opportunity to return to the Cloud Sect.”

“Hiss! If this is true, I’m afraid that the Cloud Sect will solidify their position as the number one sect in Mini Southern Heaven!”

“That’s right. When Yan Changfeng becomes the champion of the Martial Arts Competition, he will take the opportunity to announce the news of Fu Yunzi returning to the Cloud Sect. I’m afraid that the Cloud Sect will soar to the sky!”

Cheng Xu and the others were shocked when they heard that Fu Yunzi was going to return to the Cloud Sect.

If that was really the case, the Cloud Sect would definitely be like the sun at noon.

“Weird. Didn’t those old fogeys of the Cloud Sect say that they didn’t want Fu Yunzi to return to the sect?” Tang Xuan was puzzled.

Jian Yuxiang pondered for a moment. “After all, Senior Fu Yunzi is already an expert who is about to transform into a core. In addition, there is the threat of the Devil Dao. It would be a little unreasonable if those old stubborn people of the Cloud Sect don’t put down their prejudices.”

“That’s true. If you don’t agree, Senior Fu Yunzi will destroy the Cloud Sect,” said Tang Xuan.”

On the high platform, Fu Yunzi and the leaders of the various sects were already in position.

The participating teams from the various sects below the stage also quieted down, waiting for the official opening of the Demon Suppression Martial Competition.

“Ahem, first of all, 1 would like to welcome all the fellow daoists of the various sects to gather in our Cloud Sect again.” The Taoist Master on Cloud cleared his throat and solemnly said, “Now that the demonic path is restless, as allies of the righteous path, we should eliminate the demons and protect the path, protecting the pure land of Mini Southern Heaven.”

Then, he said a lot of official statements.

Finally, he got to the main point. “I’m honored to have invited Senior Fu Yunzi to attend the Demon Suppression Martial Competition this time. Now, I’d like Senior Fu Yunzi to say a few words to everyone.”

Fu Yunzi stood up with a faint smile and looked at the crowd below the stage. “I feel extremely honored to have the honor of attending the ceremony today. Once upon a time, I also stood below the stage like everyone else…”

Fu Yunzi said a few simple words and encouraged the young people to cultivate diligently.

Thunderous applause instantly erupted from the audience, especially from the Cloud Sect’s participating teams. Their eyes were filled with admiration.

Following that, Venerable Cloud Sect began to officially announce the rules of the competition. It was basically the same as what Tang Xuan had said. The disciples of each sect would draw lots to fight in pairs. There were a total of five matches, and the winners of the three matches would advance to the next round.

“Let’s welcome the senior, Fu Yunzi.”

Cloud Sect respectfully invited Fu Yunzi.

Fu Yunzi chuckled and waved his sleeves.

In an instant, a series of light balls condensed from magic power scattered below the stage. Like dandelions, they danced above the participating teams.

The teams from the various sects looked at each other and began to grab the lottery balls in the air.

Cheng Xu raised his hand and grabbed a ball of light. As soon as the ball of light reached his hand, it turned into a golden mark and was imprinted on his palm.

“Number nine.”

To him, it didn’t matter what he drew.

However, it was different for the others. For example, Miao Changsheng, his junior brother, did not dare to open his palm after he caught the ball of light. Instead, he began to pray, “Good luck, good luck. At least let me advance to the second round.”

He was not the only one. The disciples of the various sects with average strength all looked worried. They were afraid that they would be unlucky and meet the people from the Milky Way Battleship.

“Number eleven.” Tang Xuan was very satisfied with his number. He turned to Jian Yuxiang and said, “What’s Junior Sister Jian’s number?”

“Number twenty-seven.” Jian Yuxiang showed her palm.

“Is Junior Brother Chen number nine?” Tang Xuan nodded secretly. “Just don’t run into your own people.”

At the same time, the drawing of lots had ended.

Fu Yunzi waved his sleeves again, and a batch of light ball numbers appeared in the air, and they began to randomly combine in pairs.

All of the contestants held their breaths.

When all the numbers were matched, the audience instantly started discussing. Some were happy while others were worried.

“There are a total of five arenas in this martial arts competition, and they are equipped with a third-tier array formation to ensure that you can display your strength to your heart’s content.”

After Fu Yunzi finished speaking, he gently waved his hand and moved the five matching light balls to the top of the five battle stages.

Cheng Xu looked at [9-43]. He stood up calmly. “Alright, I’ll be there.”

“I look forward to Junior Brother Cheng’s triumphant return!”

Jian Yuxiang, Tang Xuan, and the others sent their blessings.

Cheng Xu made a reassuring gesture and leaped into the air onto the third ring.

The other arenas also had people in their positions.

On the grandstand, Perfected Dan Yang and Perfected Chi Yao sat together. When they saw Cheng Xu go on stage, they instantly became excited.

“Yo, yo, Little Cheng is on stage!”

“By the way, which sect is that number forty-three from?” “It seems to be a disciple of the Mystic Arts Sect. He’s at the early-stage Foundation Establishment Realm. That’s fine.” Daoist Chi Yao looked around and said.”

The two Perfected Ones looked at each other and smiled, not worried at all.

At this moment, Cheng Xu also saw his opponent on the third ring.

He was an average-looking early-stage Foundation Establishment Mystic Arts Sect disciple who looked vaguely familiar. He should have participated in the previous joint experiential learning.

“Medicine Celestial Valley’s Cheng Xu, please guide me.”

“Chen Qianfang of the Mystic Arts Sect, please guide me!” Seeing that his opponent was a disciple of the Medicine Celestial Valley, Chen Qianfang couldn’t hide the smile on his face.

Yes, he smiled. He smiled confidently.

“Cheng Xu, right? I heard that you performed well in the joint experiential learning last time. If I remember correctly, you seem to be the disciple of that Daoist Master who ran away, right?” Chen Qian’s eyes were mocking. When he said the words ‘Daoist Master Runner’, he even deliberately emphasized his tone.

As soon as these words were said, the leaders on the stage could not help but feel a little embarrassed, especially Perfected Dan Yang and Perfected Chi Yao.

“This child is insensible, so please don’t take it to heart, Fellow Daoist Crimson Glory.” the Sect Leader of the Mystic Arts Sect said awkwardly.

“It’s fine. Children’s words have no fear!”

Chi Yao Zhenren smiled and waved his hand, feeling helpless.

After so many years, he was almost used to the nickname of the Daoist Runner.

On the third ring, Cheng Xu frowned.

Initially, he wanted to take it slow, but he didn’t expect this bro to jump like this. Since that’s the case, then don’t blame me for being impolite.

With the order of the referee elder, the battle on the five arenas was about to start.

Chen Qianfang curled his lips confidently and took the lead to attack Cheng Xu. Talismans flew out of his hands and turned into fireballs, ice arrows, and other spells.

“Just this?”

Cheng Xu sneered. He activated his Protective Upstanding Qi and used the Military Fist (Subduing Dragon Fist) to attack.

Bang!

The fireballs and ice arrows landed on his Protective Upstanding Qi as if they were scratching an itch.

Seeing Cheng Xu flying towards him, Chen Qianfeng was shocked and subconsciously threw out a talisman in an attempt to dodge.

However, in the next second, dark green poisonous vines grew crazily from under his feet, binding him tightly on the spot.

Cheng Xu’s fist was already close at hand.

Boom!

The fist that was shining with a dark golden light hit Chen Qianfang’s stinky mouth.

Chen Qianfang let out an inarticulate scream and fell to the ground, his teeth falling out.

At this moment, the audience couldn’t help but exclaim..
