Shu Xiong was still alive even after Yi Tianyun's attack, and that was because Yi Tianyun had no intention to kill him. If Gu Yanlong let Yi Tianyun kill his opponent now, Shu Xiong would've already become a corpse!
Everyone was stunned by Yi Tianyun's skill. Even if Shu Xiong's cultivation wasn't the best, he shouldn't be easily defeated like that! Yi Tianyun's power was way beyond everyone's wildest imagination!
"He was too easy for you, Little Brother Yi!" Lei Zhengyu said excitedly. He almost rushed over to hug Yi Tianyun, but he knew this wasn't the place for such a behaviour. Gu Yanlong flashed in front of Yi Tianyun, but he was also surprised by Yi Tianyun's power. Even he didn't expect it to end this quickly!
"I know my eyes haven't gone rusty just yet!" Gu Yanlong nodded as he appreciated Yi Tianyun's power. He didn't even look at Shu Xiong's condition as he was the least of his concern right now. Nevertheless, he still could feel Shu Xiong's aura, so no one was killed here. But even if Shu Xiong was crippled from Yi Tianyun's attack, he still wouldn't care about it.
"You are too heavy!" Shu Han said as he lifted Shu Xiong and carried him away. He already checked Shu Xiong's vital sign and found out that Shu Xiong was dying as all the bones on his body were shattered!
"This is just a duel, how can you be so cruel!" Shu Han shouted towards Yi Tianyun furiously.
"Cruel? How would I know that he would be so fragile? He offered to give up the first move to me, and I'm sure you heard it too, right? But how would I know that he would break with just a light tap!" Yi Tianyun said indifferently.
"Sir Gu! It was obvious that he attacked my friend with an intent to kill!" Shu Han shouted angrily at Gu Yanlong.
"Well, as long as he didn't die, Yi Tianyun didn't break any rules." Gu Yanlong responded faintly. Gu Yanlong was being honest. It was the same thing all over the place. The rules in this place only stated that killing was not allowed, so if the opponent was left with serious injuries, it couldn't be helped.
Shu Han was left speechless as he didn't know what to say to avenge his injured companion.
"Well, since I now understand how fragile the Tree Race is, do you want to avenge your companion? You also said that Human Race was trash right? Why don't you fight me instead? Let us see who the real trash is here!" Yi Tianyun said coldly to Shu Han. Yi Tianyun knew that Shu Han also held the same believe as Shu Xiong, so it wouldn't hurt to deal with him right here!
"It's on!" Shu Han stand up in anger, he thought that he could win against Yi Tianyun and the reason Shu Xiong lost was only because he was too careless! He quickly pulled out a Divine Tool and pointed it at Yi Tianyun. "I will make the real difference between us clear right here and now!" Shu Han said coldly.
"Well, if you are ready, then can we start now?" Yi Tianyun said indifferently.
"Come on then! Since you are just a trash, I will give you the chance to go first like Shu Xiong did!" Shu Han said coldly. Shu Han's body was immediately covered with a thick armour and countless vines came out of his body, giving an extra cover! His aura pulsated with a strong vitality, showing the signature bloodline of the Tree Race, a super healing ability and strong defensive power!
This was also the reason why the Tree Race was usually arrogant as they thought nothing of their opponent attack!
"Prepare yourself!" Yi Tianyun said indifferently as he flashed from his spot.
Shu Han was confused as he saw Yi Tianyun disappeared, and suddenly, he felt that his chest was shattered! He was sent flying towards the wall and slammed it hard! Shu Han screamed as he vomitted blood and eventually fainted from the pain!
Like Shu Xiong, Shu Han's bones were all shattered and the armour that he took pride in was destroyed! Shu Han fall to the ground unconscious, unmoving like a corpse! But everyone could feel his aura faintly, meaning that Shu Han was still alive!
Now, everyone realised that it wasn't a fluke at all! Yi Tianyun was definitely far stronger than both of those Tree Race cultivators!
"Anyone else wants to mock Human Race? If so, I am ready to accept any of your duels!" Yi Tianyun said as he glanced over towards each cultivator on the side.
"Did you feel confident right after only defeating a few Treants?" A Rock Giant suddenly came out. His body was covered with a strong defensive aura, even more powerful than that of Shu Han's. This cultivator was called Yan Feng and with each step he took, the ground shook!
Yi Tianyun already took note of this guy before. He withstood the assessment Great Array for 6 days. His race would absolutely took advantage of their powerful defensive capability, there was no doubt about it!
"I wouldn't say that I am confident only after defeating those two! But if you want to, I can be your opponent!" Yi Tianyun looked at Yan Feng indifferently.
"Say no more! I want to witness your skill myself!" Yan Feng said as he took his stance, challenging Yi Tianyun.
Yi Tianyun looked around and the first thing he noticed was that no one seemed to be scared or showing respect to him or Lei Zhengyu. It was obviously a mistake to let this duel continue!
"I change my mind, I'm no longer interested in this child's play!" Yi Tianyun said with a sigh.
"Is that it? Is the Human Race scared of us, the Rock Giant? Or are you Human just want to bully the weak?" Yan Feng taunted Yi Tianyun to accept his challenge.
"Who is the one being bullied here? It was clear to me that you all want to beat me somehow! Using me as your stepping stone so that you can get a better status here on Heavenly Edict Divine Territory! But if you are so sure about this and don't mind lying on your bed for a year, I will be your opponent!" Yi Tianyun said with a sigh. He was really tired of dealing with people like this!
"Brat! You are too arrogant! You really thought that you are invincible after defeating those pathetic Treants, don't you?" Yan Feng said tauntingly. "Tell you what, if you crush my armour, I will admit that I lose!" Yan Feng said confidently.
Yi Tianyun assessed Yan Feng with his Appraisal Eye and noticed that the Armour of this Rock Giant was comparable to Middle-Grade Divine Tools! If he pushed it with his aura further, it would definitely reach the High-Grade Divine Tool!
"Alright, I hope that it would shield you completely from my attack!" Yi Tianyun said with a sigh.
"I have prepared myself! Don't be a coward, come on now!" Yan Feng said confidently, but before he could say anything else, Yi Tianyun disappeared and reappeared right in front of him! Yi Tianyun landed a punch on Yan Feng's chest and it crushed the rock that was Yan Feng's armour and even shattered the entire huge rock body inside!
"I am so sorry, it seems I punch you too hard!" Yi Tianyun said indifferently as he patted the dust on his trouser.
