Chapter 1022
Fire Jade Territory Lord shut his mouth immediately as he didn’t know what to say. Even though Yu Qingling was only a Foreign Aid, she represented Fire Jade God Territory’s reputation nonetheless. Thus, her defeat dragged Fire Jade God Territory’s name to the mud with her.
But there was nothing could be done now. Her eyes have been plucked out and her cultivation base was completely destroyed, leaving her completely disabled for the future. But Fire Jade Territory Lord himself couldn’t avenge her as he didn’t want to deal with the wrath of the 2nd Grade God Domain that Yi Tianyun might choose later.
Yi Tianyun looked at the spectators in the upper seat and noticed that all of them were expressionless. While Yi Tianyun’s action was really cruel and merciless, people wouldn’t blame him for it. Nevertheless, people still thought killing Yu Qingling immediately was a much better outcome.
But still, it wasn’t Yi Tianyun’s intention to kill her.
Nevertheless, there were still many cultivator that had a good chance to gain the high rank. Xiao Murong and Ling Yunfeng had both advanced to the next round and both of them were a strong contender.
Now, after the first round of the Fighting Competition, half of the participants had been eliminated.
“The first round is over and we will give you three days to rest before starting the second round.” Elder Gou Huang announced. He waved his hand and a brand new token appeared on the hands of the cultivator that had already passed the 1st round.
Yi Tianyun looked at the new token in his hand and saw the number 18. He looked around and a familiar snake had the same number as him. the cultivator in question itself also grinned from ear to ear as if the cultivator had already foreseen his own victory even if he had already seen what Yi Tianyun was capable of.
“I didn’t expect to face you so soon.” Yi Tianyun said as he walked towards Earth Monarch Yao Tong. Earth Monarch Yao Tong was Yi Tianyun next opponent. Of course, the man was excited that he would face against Yi Tianyun as he finally had the opportunity to deal with Yi Tianyun himself.
“Your life will end after three days!” Earth Monarch Yao Tong said coldly.
“Well, your eyes did seem annoying to me.” Yi Tianyun said casually.
“You want to pluck out my eyes out too? Are you sure you have the ability to prove your words?” Earth Monarch Yao Tong released his killing intent. The duel hasn’t even started yet, but both of them had already bared their fangs. It was clear that the Elders wanted this to happen and thus, they already matched Yi Tianyun up against Earth Monarch Yao Tong in the 2nd round.
Still, it made sense! Nobody wanted to watch a boring fight where the winner were already foreseen from miles away, so the Five Elders arranged for Yi Tianyun to fight a capable cultivator and Earth Monarch Yao Tong seemed to be a great choice.
Unfortunately, the Five Elders still thought that Earth Monarch Tian Qing was much stronger than Yi Tianyun, and they weren’t sure Earth Monarch Yao Tong would be able to win against her, so the Five Elders thought that pairing Earth Monarch Yao Tong with Yi Tianyun might be better.
The Five Elders thought that Yi Tianyun was barely hanging despite passing the 9th Level of the Heavenly Tribulation earlier. Therefore, they didn’t put too much faith in Yi Tianyun. No one knew that Yi Tianyun had a lot of abilities in his arsenal. Yi Tianyun was just too lazy to show his power as he wouldn’t feel the rush of adrenaline if he ended every fight with a single punch.
“Ughh, I don’t want to deal with that cultivator the most!” Xiao Murong said while pouting beside Yi Tianyun.
“Who? That cultivator?” Yi Tianyun said as he pointed towards Earth Monarch Sen Xue whose gender wasn’t really prominent.
“Yeah, it is that cultivator! I hate to fight someone like them, but at least there is no conflict of attribute!” Xiao Murong said with a frown on her face.
“Why should you care about something like that? They don’t seem to be powerful either.” Yi Tianyun said as he observed Earth Monarch Sen Xue with his Appraisal Eye.
“I am not too sure, Earth Monarch Sen Xue has skills and their reputation isn’t bad either!” Xiao Murong said cautiously. Obviously, cultivators that had gotten this far and passed through so many ordeals during the War of Ascension wouldn’t be weak!
…………..
Three days went by quickly and finally all the cultivators entered their respective arena to face their own opponents. Naturally, Yi Tianyun was facing against Earth Monarch Yao Tong, the snake cultivator that released a cold aura.
“Don’t disappoint me too much!” Earth Monarch Yao Tong said sarcastically as he pulled out a long whip to use as his weapon. The long whip itself was like a snake that wriggled and coiled around his leg like a sentient snake.
“That’s my line! Give me some challenge, yeah?” Yi Tianyun said indifferently.
“Arrogant bastard!” Earth Monarch Yao Tong shouted as he slammed his whip to the ground, creating a massive gulley on the ground. “Now, let us see what trick you keep using to win the stage!” Earth Monarch Yao Tong said with a smirk on his face.
Yi Tianyun suddenly turned around and kicked something behind him! a figure suddenly flew out of nowhere. The figure suffered a heavy damage on its arm as it blocked Yi Tianyun’s kick.
“You have made your first move!” Yi Tianyun said indifferently at the figure in front of him. the figure itself was Earth Monarch Yao Tong and the Earth Monarch Yao Tong that Yi Tianyun left behind earlier gradually disappeared.
The illusion that Earth Monarch Yao Tong made was very good as it successfully tricked everyone that watched the match. Nevertheless, people were surprised that Yi Tianyun could se through the illusion and even counterattacked Earth Monarch Yao Tong!
