No one responded to Xia Xinghe's words; they were all stunned by his cruel methods, including the hundreds of thousands of citizens and the crowd of students from the Sky Chu Martial School!

Once a martial artist turned into trash, even if the enemies from before did not come looking for them, the person with the crippled cultivation would still be in extreme pain. The bodies of these people could not even compare to the bodies of ordinary people, and not only could they not maintain a normal life, even if they wanted to beg for food, they would also be bullied by other beggars. This was even more terrifying than killing.

Did Xia Xinghe have a ruthless method?

Other than those related to Chu Qingcheng, everyone else was but an ant to Xia Xingchen. How could they be so ruthless?

In any case, it was impossible for Xia Xinghe to care about this sort of thing.

Not to mention, since he had chosen to become the blade of the TianChu Martial Academy, he had to be aware of something, something that was more painful than death!

The central Martial Arts Practice Field once again fell into a deathly silence. No one knew just how many times this had happened, but everyone was already a bit numb.

Nearly a third of the group had pale faces and trembling bodies. The fighting spirit and fighting spirit of these kind of people were on the verge of collapse.

There was still a third of the people who were hesitating. It was clear that they couldn't decide whether to go or not.

The last third should have been very confident in themselves. Although their faces were ugly, their fighting spirit was high.

Suddenly, Xia Xinghe raised his palm and pointed his finger at the contestants that had advanced to the second round, laughing: "Next, don't waste my time. My spiritual energy is almost exhausted."

Face smacking!

It was a blatant slap to the face!

Xia Xinghe told them openly that he was about to run out of energy; he was indeed looking down on them and acting tyrannically!

"Don't try to be arrogant, I'll kill you!" Another muscular man jumped onto the stage. Although the fear in his eyes had yet to subside, this muscular man shared the same thoughts as the dual-blade man and wanted to fight for a chance.

Following which, the big man held the long spear in his hand and madly rushed towards Xia Xing like an arrow that had just left the bow!

"Puchi!"

No one could clearly see Xia Xingchen's movements, but they could hear the extremely soft yet extremely shocking voice.

When everyone returned to their senses and looked towards the arena once again, they discovered that the burly man holding the long spear was the same as the burly man with two blades. His lower abdomen was pierced through by Xia Xinghe's arm, and his sky palace's aurasea was destroyed, becoming a cripple completely!

"Next." Xia Xing didn't even look at the man, he only casually pulled his arm out from the man's stomach, leaving behind a second person curled up on the ground like a large shrimp.

Xia Xinghe's incomparably domineering aura completely intimidated the crowd. Not to mention the opponents of Xia Xinghe's group, even the people from the Tianwu Martial Academy stared dumbfoundedly at Xia Xinghe.

"Elder Ye, did you clearly see Xia Xinghe's footsteps?"

"And his arm, how could it so easily pierce through the body of a participant? It's simply a divine weapon!"

Amongst the three people from the three families, Ye Qingsu's cultivation was the highest and he had the most experience. Therefore, Zhao Mu and Wei Zhuang asked Ye Qingsu in confusion at almost the same time.

"I …" Ye Qingsu swallowed his saliva, and said with difficulty: "I didn't see it clearly!"

As the sound of Ye Qingsu's voice faded, Zhao Mu and Wei Zhuang were immediately astounded. In the end, the three Celestial Phenomenon Mirror turned their heads and stared at the even stronger Xue Long.

"Instructor Xue …" Ye Qingsu's voice was somewhat dry, but his face was filled with hope. How much did he wish for Xue Long to say the words that were in his grasp?

In truth, however, that was exactly what he wanted.

Xue Long stiffly and mechanically shook his head. He subconsciously blurted out, "I didn't see it clearly either!"

Once Xue Long said this, everyone's expression, including He Yu and Fang Ruyu's, instantly changed. The previous calmness, confidence, and loathing all turned into extremely ugly shock, or even fear!

Xue Long's voice wasn't loud. At the very least, the surrounding several hundred thousand people still couldn't hear him. However, the over a hundred participants below the stage could clearly hear him!

For a moment, this group of participants looked even more unsightly than those from the TianChu Martial Academy. After all, it was their turn to battle Xia Xinghe!

These footwork and moves that even Celestial Phenomenon Ascendant couldn't see through were all the participants of the Celestial Mirror and Celestial Phenomenon Mirror, and it was even more impossible to see through them. Since one couldn't see through them, then there would only be one end to it, just like the two fellows on the battle stage.

Ta ta ta …

In an instant, as if the hundred over participants had agreed beforehand, they all subconsciously took a step back!

It was a simple step, yet it revealed the root of all the participants' hearts and caused them to feel fear!

At this moment, their will to fight collapsed!

"Scared?" Everyone's attention was captured by Xia Xinghe. After a teasing smile, Xia Xinghe raised his arm again, beckoning to the contestants with his finger, repeating: "Next."

"I... I concede! " The third to last person to advance to the second round seemed to have used all of his strength to spit out these words. After he finished speaking, the burly man that was like a mountain directly collapsed onto the ground, panting heavily as if he had been relieved of a heavy burden.

Compared to joining the TianChu Martial Academy, preserving his life and cultivation was much more important!

If one did not join the Tianwu Academy, they could still cultivate. Even if their future wasn't limitless, at the very least, with their cultivation base, they wouldn't become trash that even beggars could look down upon, much less die tragically on the streets!

"I admit defeat as well!"

"I'll withdraw!"

"I'm not going to fight, I'm not going to join the TianChu Martial Academy!"

With the first person to admit defeat, countless people began to admit defeat. This timid and cowardly battle scene was like a hurricane that swept through the hearts of over a hundred participants, instantly disintegrating their fighting spirit!

In the blink of an eye, nearly seventy competitors were fleeing the central training field in panic while screaming. Previously, they had been bursting with momentum and had advanced to the second stage of the examination, but now, there were only fourteen of them left.
