Chapter 38: Victory in the first battle

In Shifang City, above the Juying Terrace, the space vibrated, and soon after ripples appeared, figures stepped out one after another.

Ten figures appeared, and fluctuations between heaven and earth stood up. When the ten people gathered together, a heaven-destroying aura burst out, sweeping the surrounding space with an overwhelming force!

Among these ten people, nine are clearly representatives of the nine major forces!

The other man was dressed in black, but no one in the audience could recognize his identity.

"Seventh Elder..." Hong Yan's slightly trembling voice came from his mind.

Ye Zihan was shocked when he heard this, and his eyes were locked on the man in black. This man was one of the nine elders of the Illusion Temple?!

"A bunch of old guys, no matter how bad they are, they are not so majestic when they come up..."

Ye Yueqian rolled his eyes helplessly, and then said loudly: "Everyone, it's getting late, please take a seat."

The other nine people did not hesitate or show any pretense, they each stepped lightly, and their figures appeared strangely at a specific stand seat dozens of feet away, and sat down in their seats.

"Ye Qian..." Ye Zihan looked far away, shifting from the seventh elder to another gray-robed man. In his memory, this man was a powerful elder in the clan. He was cold and arrogant. Strength is the most important thing. When Ye Zihan was a child, he never looked at his expression less.

After the eight people took their seats one by one, Ye Yueqian turned his head and faced the people at the Juying Terrace below. A steady voice sounded clearly in everyone's ears: "Dear young people, the Five Elements Gathering, which takes place every fifty years, is about to begin. , you are lucky to be able to participate in this Five Elements Gathering."

In the audience, everyone applauded wildly. Ye Yueqian's words were true. This Five Elements Gathering is held once every fifty years. If you miss it, you will never have the chance to participate again. Now that everyone meets the conditions, you can really do it. Call it a kind of luck.

"Time is running out, so I won't talk nonsense anymore. I just want to reveal that the reward for the champion of this Five Elements Gathering is the Moon Rank."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone in the audience was in an uproar, and even the audience in the stands screamed in surprise!

Moon steps!

If you have this kind of peak-level magic weapon, cross-level combat will not be a problem!

"Yue... Yuejie..."

Most of the people in the audience have been stimulated to the point of going crazy. Their faces are reddened, their palms are constantly rubbing, and their eyes have become bloodshot at some point. They are extremely eager for the moon-level championship reward. !

Yan Chen also had a look of shock on his face. In the last Five Elements Gathering, moon-level martial arts were used as the championship reward. The nine major forces were already hurt enough, but he didn't expect that this time it would also be moon-level items!

"It seems that the nine major forces are very confident in daring to make such a huge investment, and are not worried that a dark horse will appear among the people."

"Even if there is a dark horse, without the support of the forces behind it, it will not be so easy to get out of Shifang City smoothly." Ye Zihan suddenly answered.

Yan Chen was stunned for a moment, then nodded, convinced that the world was not that peaceful.

Looking at the passionate people in the audience, Ye Yueqian smiled slightly and waved his hand: "The Five Elements Gathering has officially begun!"

"clang!"

The dull bell rang again, indicating that this Five Elements Gathering has officially begun!

Ten figures suddenly appeared and rushed to the gathering stage. The leader said loudly: "We and the ten people are the judges of this Five Elements Gathering Competition. The victory or defeat among you will be decided by us. Those who disobey will be judged. Directly disqualified from the competition!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. How could the Five Elements Judgment judge be so arrogant and domineering? If he made an unfair decision in their competition, wouldn't he have harmed others?

However, people with a little knowledge are not too worried, because they recognize that the ten people on the stage as judges are all strong men with well-known names. How could they treat their own reputations as child's play and do injustice?

decision.

Moreover, there are representatives of the nine major forces high up in the stands, and they are equally concerned about ensuring the fairness and justice of the Five Elements Gathering.

"Area 1, Zhang Jin from Group A versus Chen Jing!"

"District 2, Peng Wu from Group B versus Lin Qifeng!"

"The third area..."

The entire Juying Platform is divided into ten areas, each area is more than 20 feet long and wide, and is used for ten groups to compete at the same time. Firstly, it saves time, and secondly, ten areas compete at the same time, which adds to the excitement of the competition.

Lively and gorgeous!

When all twenty people from the ten groups were on the Juying platform, the leader said again: "The rules of the competition are that until one party falls to the ground or surrenders and admits defeat, the competition ends and the winner is decided."

After a pause, his tone suddenly turned cold: "But if one side surrenders and admits defeat, and the other side still kills, don't blame us for intervening."

"If you understand everything, let's get started."

Ten figures swayed one after another and appeared in their respective areas. They waved their palms down and the competition began!

When all the contestants on the stage saw this, they didn’t hesitate, their source energy was circulating, and the battle had already begun!

The Origin Qi bloomed, and all professions showed their magical powers, whether they were martial arts, shikigami, or summoned beasts. The huge gathering stage was extremely gorgeous for a while!

"These people are not mediocre." Yan Chen said.

Ye Zihan did not respond. While observing the battle situation on the stage, he carefully sensed whether there was any special aura around him. His eyes would glance over the seventh elder from time to time. Since the elders had all appeared, his disciples should also be hiding there.

Among all the contestants.

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!"

Various powerful skills collided with each other, erupting with deafening loud noises. Most of the people participating this time were above Liangyi in strength. It is quite difficult for a sixteen or seventeen-year-old to achieve this level in the outside world.

The so-called expert can tell whether there is anyone as soon as he makes a move. If the person fighting on the stage is suppressed by level, the winner will be decided in less than five minutes. The evenly matched people will each show their skills and use a series of moves.

It is also a matter of judgment.

Therefore, in less than a quarter of an hour, the first round of competition has basically ended. Such a speed of competition is quite fast.

The first round of competition has just ended, and the second round is already going on non-stop. Such a tight connection makes the atmosphere of the competition very tense and exciting!

It didn't take long for the first four rounds of competition to be completed. In these four rounds of competition, there were also people from the nine major forces, but there was no doubt that they all won with an overwhelming advantage. Some of them had not even started fighting. Their opponents

I have already surrendered and admitted defeat. There is nothing I can do, the gap is too big after all.

In the fifth round, it was finally Ye Zihan's turn to compete.

"The fifth round of competition begins!"

After the judgmental voice fell, Ye Zihan did not launch an attack immediately, but carefully looked at the opponent named Liang Xuan on the opposite side. According to his induction, Liang Xuan's cultivation had reached the late stage of Liang Xuan.

"Liang Xuan, please give me some advice!" Liang Xuan said from the opposite side, cupping his fists.

"Ye Zihan, please give me your advice." Ye Zihan returned the greeting with a smile.

After saying hello, the two of them didn't say much. Liang Xuan raised his arm, and a piece of white talisman was thrown out. A black wolf dog half a man tall jumped out of it, whining in a low voice, with its front paws slightly swaying.

Bend, ready to go!

"Shikigami—Dark Soul Dog!"

Ye Zihan sensed it briefly and knew that the Dark Soul Dog was only a mid-level second-level monster, so he did not hesitate, took out a green-edged long sword from the space scroll, made a bow with his body, and then ejected towards the Dark Soul Dog!

Ye Zihan did not take out the blood-level red lotus dagger. He did not want to attract red eyes in front of everyone.

"go!"

Liang Xuan gave the order, and the Dark Soul Dog immediately took action. It kicked its limbs on the ground and jumped into the air. At the same time, it opened its mouth and spat out a ball of black stuff!

Ye Zihan moved his body and avoided things. He naturally knew that what the Dark Soul Dog spat out was poisonous saliva.

"Zizi~"

The saliva did not hit Ye Yehan, but fell to the ground, making a sizzling sound. At the same time, there was a trace of green smoke, which actually corroded some of the tricolor iron stone.

Ye Zihan frowned. If these things stick to his body, it must be a big trouble.

When the attack failed, the Dark Soul Dog rolled over and landed on the ground, rushed forward, and swung its sharp claws at Ye Zihan!

Ye Ye laughed coldly, stepped lightly, moved his body half way, the source energy in his hand surged up, infusing the sword body, and then faced the Dark Soul Dog, the sword edge fell!

Ye Zihan was confident that the long sword in his hand could make deep cuts even when facing three-color iron stone!

"laugh."

A soft sound came, and the Dark Soul Dog raised its claws to block it, and its forelimbs were cut off!

The Dark Soul Dog, which had broken its front paw, could not stop itself and rushed forward. Ye Zihan stepped out with his left foot, arched his back, turned his wrist, and held the long sword in his hand, the tip of the sword touching the Dark Soul.

The dog's chest, and then with all his strength, the Dark Soul Dog was immediately disemboweled!

Liang Xuan's eyes flashed. This young man in red seemed to have a lot of fighting experience. If he didn't go all out, he might fall into his hands.

At that moment, he no longer held back his hand and threw out a piece of talisman paper again. The seal in his hand appeared and shouted: "Snake!"

A huge white snake appeared out of thin air. Its dark red snake eyes were lined with scarlet snake letters, making it look very ferocious and monstrous!

"Two late stages."

Ye Zihan murmured in his heart, stepped forward, and ran to Mang Snake. He raised his sword, pointed it at Mang Snake's body, and swept across it without any fancy!

Although the snake has no legs, its body is very powerful. Its tail suddenly exerted force, and its upper body stood upright, avoiding Ye Zihan's sword!

The scarlet snake was hesitant in his words. The snake swung its head and opened its mouth to bite down on Ye Zihan!

Ye Zihan did not dodge or dodge, holding the sword in the air with his right hand holding the handle and his left hand on the sword body, stopping the head that was attacked by the snake!

"Thunder Magic!"

Fierce strength spread from the arm, spread along the sword body, reached the body of the snake, and suddenly exploded!

Being hit head-on by the surging force, Xiao, even with Mang Snake's huge body, couldn't bear it and flew backwards!

Ye Zihan took advantage of the victory to pursue, and stepped forward. When the snake was about to fall to the ground, he jumped up, held the sword in both hands, aimed at the seven inches of the snake, and struck down with all his strength!

"Hiss~"

The snake let out a whimper, and before the snake could take back the letter, it was already dead and disappeared into smoke.

"Okay! Well done!"

In the audience, people who watched the fight cheered in unison. Although the fight was not big, the clean and neat skills of the young man in red made everyone enjoy watching it.

Liang Xuan's face was blank, and he obviously hadn't reacted yet. His strength in the late stage of Liangyi was already very good among his peers. Even if he couldn't make it to the finals this time in the Five Elements Gathering, if he defeated a few opponents, he should make it to the semi-finals.

It's not a big problem. Who would have expected that when I met this young man in red in the first battle, I would be defeated and buried in the sand!

"I admit defeat." After a long time, Liang Xuan regained his composure and said dejectedly. The strongest shikigami could not last ten rounds under the opponent's hand. Liang Xuan knew that he had no chance of winning.

"Brother Liang, I accept the concession." Ye Zihan sheathed his sword and cupped his fists.

Liang Xuan smiled bitterly, but still reluctantly returned the salute with his fists clasped, saying bluntly: "Excuse me, I tried my best. You are the strong one."
Chapter completed!
