In the depths of Illusory Spirit Mountain, there was a vast plaza surrounded by clouds and mist. In the center of the plaza, there was a tall platform that was about ten meters tall, and it was called "Heavenly Spirit Platform".
~ The surrounding area of Heavenly Spirit Platform is already filled with people, the Intermediate Selection Competition is going to take place here, the hundred participants all stood out, standing in the center of the audience waiting for Tu Kun to speak.
The crowd clamored. Although all of them were eliminated contestants, the competition was not over yet. They did not leave and instead chose to stay and watch.
Tu Kun, Yun Cen, and Long Xu stood in front of the Heavenly Spirit Platform s and swept their eyes across everyone. Yun Cen took the lead and said, "The Intermediate Ranking Tournament is very simple, only one person from your hundred participants can win nine matches and advance successfully, but there are a few disciples who are strong enough, and can directly advance."
"What?" Which ones is Deacon Yun Cen talking about? "
"Could it be Zhao Yi and the rest?" When the surrounding people heard what Yun Cen said, they all revealed looks of shock and began whispering questions to each other.
"There's even special treatment for this?" On the other hand, Qin Ming, who was standing amongst the hundred participants, frowned. His expression was somewhat strange as he looked at the faint smile on Tu Kun's face who was standing in front of the group.
"Why? What right do you have to directly help them level up? " Just as the crowd was discussing and each of them were complaining about their dissatisfaction, out of the hundred participants, someone suddenly shouted and asked Tu Kun and the others a question.
"Yes!" Are we not as good as them? " Hearing that someone was dissatisfied, the contestants all expressed their doubts. Because this matter was unfair, they had the right to ask about it.
"Humph!" A bunch of idiots! " Amongst the crowd of contestants, someone suddenly gave a cold humph and actually began insulting everyone.
"Zhao Yi!" Everyone's expression changed greatly, all of them revealed expressions of anger, looking for the one who spoke out, and when they saw Zhao Yi's sinister smile and gaze sweeping over them, they were immediately shocked, the anger in their hearts instantly transforming into fear that engulfed their hearts.
"Are you provoking me?" Qin Ming frowned, he looked coldly at Zhao Yi, who was in front of the group of people, and was feeling dissatisfied with him, but suddenly, Zhao Yi's gaze turned in his direction, revealing a cold sneer, as he shook his head slightly.
"Silence!"
"Justice is when the strong are respected. If you want fairness, then use your strength to speak. Otherwise, shut up!" Seeing the crowd being restless, Tu Kun suddenly roared, his face revealing a sinister look as he looked at them, and berated them harshly.
Everyone's expression changed greatly. What Tu Kun said made them dare to be angry, but not to say anything. Especially the pressure that Tu Kun had released, which made them tremble in fear.
"Zhao Yi, Xuanming, Chen Peng, Chen Peng, come out! The rest of the people drew lots and decided to go up on stage. The match will begin immediately! " After shocking everyone, Tu Kun directly called out the name of the person who would be directly promoted this time.
When the crowd heard the few people called out by Clan Elder Tu Kun, their expressions all became ugly, their faces all flushed red, and they even felt somewhat regretful. This was because out of the few people called out, which one of them were not at the sixth stage of Core Formation Stage Cultivation Level, all of them were outstanding outer sect disciples, their strength was unquestionable.
After Zhao Yi and the other two directly announced their promotions, Qin Ming and the rest began to draw lots, and selected the ten arena masters to use as gatekeepers, regardless of life or death, the people who admitted defeat were immediately disqualified, and eliminated from the competition.
"Rank 1 arena master, come up!" After drawing the lots, Yun Cen shouted loudly.
With that said, one of the hundred participants slowly walked out, with a cold look on his face, he instantly walked out of the group and leaped onto the Heavenly Spirit Platform s!
"Xianhua!"
"The first gecko is actually the best!" Feng Hua was ranked first on the Wind Cloud List, his strength was not inferior to Zhao Yi and the rest, and he was publicly recognized as one of the Four Great Experts!
"It's actually him?" Qin Ming who was in the middle of the crowd had a solemn expression. Feng Hua had appeared, which meant that his battle with Feng Hua was imminent, because he knew Feng Hua was waiting for this day.
Amongst the crowd, Zhao Xi had a strange expression on her face. She had such confidence in defeating him, she turned and looked at Qin Ming at the back, and said to herself, "I hope you will not disappoint me."
"Who dares to fight on stage!" Just as Zhao Xi was whispering to the spectators, Feng Hua from the Heavenly Spirit Platform looked down at the audience and shouted.
Everyone below the stage had serious expressions. Facing an expert like Feng Hua, none of them felt bad, and only Qin Ming was calm and composed while looking Feng Hua in the eye without uttering a word.
However, just when no one was going to issue a challenge, the Heavenly Spirit Platform suddenly erupted with a wave of a Profound Light, and directly descended into the contestant crowd.
"This is?" The Heavenly Spirit Platform actually took the initiative to choose their opponent? " Everyone was surprised, and when they saw Heavenly Spirit Platform randomly choose an opponent, they couldn't help but feel surprised.
"Looks like no one will be able to escape. There are only two choices left to me: to fight on stage and to directly admit defeat." Everyone let out a sigh. This type of competition was quite different.
Boom! * Just as everyone was still unconscious, there was suddenly an explosive sound coming from the Heavenly Spirit Platform. Following which, all that could be seen was Feng Hua turning into a shadow as the huge sword in his right hand suddenly swept horizontally!
Boom!
"Ah …!"
"I admit... "Pfft!" The sword energy swept through the void, and the black-clothed man suddenly let out a miserable cry. But before anyone could admit defeat, Feng Hua's sword directly split him in half. The scene was extremely horrifying!
"You don't even have the chance to admit defeat?"
"This Feng Hua is actually so ruthless?"
The expressions of the people below the stage all changed drastically. After seeing Feng Hua split his opponent with a single sword strike, causing his popularity to become so horrible that it was hard to look at. They could not help but feel somewhat dissatisfied with Feng Hua.
"You want to show your might to me?" Qin Ming's face was ugly. After Feng Hua killed his opponent, that pair of evil eyes had been looking at him the entire time. Qin Ming appeared and sneered, and did not avoid her, and directly looked her in the eye.
"Victory in the first round of Fenghua!" The Heavenly Spirit Platform calmed down and Deacon Yun Cen immediately announced the results, turning a blind eye to Feng Hua's cruel actions.
Just when Feng Hua looked down again, he stared coldly at Qin Ming who was in the crowd. A trace of a sinister smile floated on his face, and he directly pointed at Qin Ming who was in the crowd and loudly said: "Do you dare to fight on stage!"
"Who is he challenging?"
"Murderer Qin Ming!"
"The one being challenged by Feng Hua is actually him?" Everyone was startled, and when they looked towards the direction Feng Hua was pointing, their expressions changed, all of them took in a breath of cold air, unconsciously opening up a path for Qin Ming.
"Is there a need to be so focused?" Qin Ming smiled shyly, he looked at the fearful gazes of the people around him, then slowly walked out of the line and arrived at Heavenly Spirit Platform s close to look up at the sky and indifferently said: "Why would I not dare!"
"Whiz!"
With a leap, Qin Ming immediately jumped onto the Heavenly Spirit Platform, and revealed a crafty smile as he gazed at Feng Hua.
"Second level of the Core Formation Stage?" Isn't this a bit of a joke? " In the elders' seats, Yun Cen's expression was a little odd. Seeing that Qin Ming was only at the second level of the Core Formation Stage, he could not help but ask.
"If you can't even take one move, you'll die on the spot!" Hearing Yun Cen's words, the Dragon Beard Deacon nodded his head in agreement. A person at the second level of the Core Formation Stage was nothing. Moreover, Feng Hua's strength was the number one on the Wind Cloud Ranking, so how could a person at the second level of the Core Formation Stage be able to measure his strength?
"Oh? Do you all think so? " Tu Kun heard that Yun Cen and Long Xu did not have high hopes for Qin Ming, with a strange smile on his face, he turned towards the two and asked softly.
"Don't you think so, Clan Elder Tu Kun?" Tu Kun suddenly asked, but Yun Cen was surprised. He frowned and looked at Tu Kun with a strange expression and asked softly.
On the surface, it looked like Qin Ming was definitely going to lose. Unless Qin Ming hid his Cultivation Level and deliberately set up a suspicious array, there was no room for negotiation.
"I think that kid is not simple. I have some understanding of him. If I'm not wrong, then Feng Hua will lose for sure!" Tu Kun did not say what he thought. Instead, he said it with an affirmative tone, as if he thought very highly of Qin Ming.
"This …?" What Elder Tu Kun said caused me to be speechless. As I retracted my gaze and looked at Qin Ming who was on the Heavenly Spirit Platform, I could not understand even after thinking about it, "What is so different about this child? actually got so much attention from Clan Elder Tu Kun? "
"You still can't resist. You want to fight me?" Above the Heavenly Spirit Platform, Qin Ming stared at Feng Hua, and said with a cold smile.
"Humph!" Don't be too arrogant, my brother Feng Xuan died in your hands, today I will kill you and avenge my brother! " Feng Hua snorted with a gloomy face. His eyes were filled with killing intent as the huge sword in his right hand sparkled. He could make a move at any time.
"Hehe!" You make it sound good, but why didn't you take revenge for your little brother during the fight that day? Why must you endure until today! " Qin Ming shook his head and smiled, purposely exposing Feng Hua's disguise.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Accept your death! " Feng Hua's expression suddenly became unsightly. On that day, his breakthrough was imminent and could not be delayed. Otherwise, he would not have chosen to endure until now!
With an explosive shout, he brandished the huge sword and instantly slashed through the void, causing it to vibrate with a metallic sound.
"Are you angry from embarrassment?" Qin Ming was disdainful, with a leap, he punched Rushing Thunder Nine Splitting Fist, directly colliding with Feng Hua's sword!
Boom!
The two collided, and sparks flew in all directions.
Thump! Thump! Feng Hua took a few steps back. His expression suddenly became ugly and his hair was in a mess. A stream of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
"Feng Hua is injured?"
"Qin Ming's punch is too terrifying!" Qin Ming's fist was extremely tyrannical, to the point where he actually injured Feng Hua with his bare hand.
"This fellow's fist is actually this powerful?" Amongst the crowd, Lin Jing's expression was extremely unsightly. Witnessing Feng Hua get heavily injured by one of Qin Ming's fists, he actually felt some fear in his heart.
"Qin Ming! Qin Ming! The person I, Leng Ruyan, hate the most is you, why would Zhao Xi have you? " Amongst the crowd, Leng Ruyan's eyes were cold as she looked up at the Heavenly Spirit Platform staring angrily at Qin Ming. The fear she had towards Qin Ming had turned into resentment, the deaths of Tianyu and Han Feng kept appearing in his mind.
