The Golden Mountain cultivator was standing in the air watching impassively. He glanced at the crowd and said, “Golden Mountain can select thirty people. Therefore, there are a dozen people who have to be eliminated.”
“We have ten groups, each group can choose one person to eliminate. If there is a disagreement, you can fight to solve the issue. People who get eliminated can challenge three winners; if they win, they stay, and the defeated ones are eliminated,” said the Golden Mountain cultivator calmly.
The fighters were nervous, as it was the last round. They needed to eliminate ten people, perfect, there were ten groups left.
“Round by round,” said the strong cultivator glancing at the groups. he said, “You three, who do you want to eliminate?”
The three cultivators pulled long faces. They were extremely strong to have made it there. Now if someone wanted to fight against three people and win, it would be really difficult, because only the strongest cultivators were left.
However, nobody could change the rules. In that group, two people looked at the third at the same time. That person pulled a long face. Everybody had fought so far, so people were aware of everyone’s strength. Maybe some people had hidden their real strength, but such people were rare. The person the other two cultivators looked at was indeed the weakest man in their group.
He said nothing and resigned himself. He still tried to challenge three people, but he lost quickly. He was eliminated, he wouldn’t be able to participate in the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds.
Heroes are now getting eliminated, thought Lin Feng, watching those people. The two people left were extremely strong. At the beginning, there were nearly four hundred people, and now only thirty would be qualified, it was quite cruel.
People were eliminated one after the other. The atmosphere was eerily silent. Finally, it was the turn of Lin Feng’s group. Many people watched them carefully: Yu Qing the First Master of Jade Clouds, Jin Zhen from Golden Mountain, Dugu the Winner who had a king-type body, and Lin Feng. Those four people were extremely strong. None of them would accept getting eliminated.
Jin Zhen looked at Lin Feng. Lin Feng looked at Jin Zhen.
Yu Qing obviously couldn’t get eliminated. There was a conflict between Lin Feng and Jin Zhen. Dugu the Winner acted as if it all had nothing to do with him. Therefore, Lin Feng and Jin Zhen wanted to eliminate one another. Actually, Dugu the Winner was lucky that there were tensions between Lin Feng and Jin Zhen!
“That’s exactly what I wanted to say!” replied Jin Zhen calmly.
“Think carefully. We can fight, I don’t mind. But if you get injured, then challenging three people won’t be easy for you and that way, you won’t be able to participate in the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds,” said Lin Feng.
Jin Zhen looked at him coldly and said, “Come!”
After that, he jumped out and landed on the battle stage, staring at Lin Feng. His eyes were filled with murder. Dao power filled the air, and his cosmic energies rose to the skies.
Lin Feng looked at Jin Zhen and slowly walked forwards. Jin Zhen stretched out his arm and golden cosmic energies turned into a gigantic golden hammer.
“Hammer Refining Technique?” the crowd murmured. The members of Golden Mountain practiced weapon cultivation, so their weapons were powerful.
Lin Feng also jumped onto the stage, a loud sound ringing out. A terrifying black sword appeared above Lin Feng’s head. It looked extremely sharp and vibrating ominously.
“Weapon King Intent?” the crowd frowned. Was that Lin Feng’s spirit? Why did he have that kind of intent? The cosmic energies of that sword was composed were terrifying. They were even more powerful than Jin Zhen’s cosmic energies.
Jin Zhen frowned, and his hammer moved. Deployment lights twinkled all over it. Jin Zhen rose up into the air, raising his hammer. Clouds appeared and a strong wind started blowing, the air turning dark. A terrifying strength rose up, trying to crush the sky.
Lin Feng just looked at Jin Zhen coldly. His sword was now humming at an ear-splitting level. The strength of the earth, the sky, and the ten thousand things of creation condensed and fused together with the sword. At the same time, terrifying deployment marks started intertwining around it. Lin Feng started condensing the required strength for the celestial stage deployment spell, and the sword slowly fused together with it. His energies became more and more oppressive as well. It felt like nothing could block that sword.
The terrifying energies were screaming at one another. Jin Zhen’s hammer streaked across the sky. People’s hearts were pounding at its Qi. The hammer grew even more gigantic, and many hammer shadows appeared around it, converging on Lin Feng!
“Go.” Lin Feng also released his gigantic sword with the celestial stage deployment spell. It turned into a beam of light and shot towards the hammer. Around the gigantic sword, a dark demon vortex appeared and absorbed everything in its path. The hammer shadows were all destroyed, and the hammer and the gigantic sword collided in a horrendous impact. Energies thundered and were rent asunder.
Jin Zhen was hurled backwards once again, his hammer was broken… but the sword continued moving towards him!
“Break!” Jin Zhen furiously punched out and made the air shake violently, trying to collapse space around it. His strength struck the gigantic sword again, and it finally broke apart.
At the same time, a hurricane came howling for him. Jin Zhen saw a dark fist moving towards him, space rippling around it. Jin Zhen raised his fist to block, and the sound of his bones breaking was clearly audible.
He was smashed away again. He shouted furiously and dazzling lights penetrated into Lin Feng’s brain.
“Die!” Death Dao surged out and carried everything away. At the same time, a death sword appeared. Lin Feng raised both fists and punched out with thunderous force. The crowd saw Jin Zhen get smashed away, covered with blood and coughing up scarlet.
He fell from the sky and crashed to the ground. People’s hearts were pounding.
“How strong. That gigantic sword, and his physical strength…” The crowd was staring at Lin Feng in astonishment. No wonder he dared act that arrogantly. He would probably rank quite well in the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds!
He turned around and went back onto the pillar. Dugu the Winner, Lin Feng, and Yu Qing were left!
Jin Zhen’s face paled. He was still coughing up blood. The strong cultivator from Golden Mountain said to him, “You can either choose to challenge three people, or give up.”
When Jin Zhen heard that, his face twisted. How could he challenge three people? Those people were all heroes!
“I give up…” said Jin Zhen, staring at Lin Feng. However, Lin Feng didn’t even bother to look at him. Jin Zhen was a nobody to him. Lin Feng wanted to focus on the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds.
—
After their fight, more people were eliminated.
“Congratulations everybody,” said the strong cultivator, smiling at the crowd, “You are now thirty. You will participate in the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. The others may still watch, however!”
When they heard that, they all smiled indifferently. Those who had been eliminated didn’t look happy at all, though. They were desperate, sad, disappointed, they would only able to watch…
“Alright, you can disperse. One more month! Get ready for the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds!” said the referee calmly. Necklaces flew towards all those who had been qualified. They grabbed them and placed their godly awareness inside.
Silhouettes flickered as the people left. One more month was left!
