Wait a minute, City Lord, it doesn't seem right to continue like this. Every time we do this, there will be one contestant who will be spared from battle. Doing this seems to be unfair to the other contestants." After Wu Xiu announced Ye Xiao's victory, Bai Ming stood up and said.
"Oh, then what do you think we should do, Second Elder Bai?" Feng Wuji raised his eyes and asked. However, he secretly sneered in his heart. He was naturally aware of Bai Ming's thoughts.
"How about this? Since eight people are eliminated and nine people have advanced to the second round, let two more people fight out of the remaining nine. This way, eight will remain and the rest of the competition can continue normally without needing to let one advance to the next round without fighting. What do you think, City Lord?" Bai Ming said.
"Of course we can, this way we can save a lot of trouble." Feng Wuji nodded.
"Since my Bai Family's people have not fought with Ye Xiao even for one time, why don't we just let him and Bai Tian fight?" Bai Ming continued.
Bai Tian was the one who chose the no-fighting lot and advanced to the second round without any fight.
Feng Wuji didn't immediately agree. Instead, he looked at Ye Xiao and asked, "Ye Xiao, what do you think?"
"No problem." Ye Xiao nodded indifferently. From the moment Bai Ming stood up, he knew that this old man definitely did not have any good intentions and would definitely target him.
"Bai Tian, don't waste any more time." Bai Ming said indifferently in an arrogant tone.
Bai Tian was a martial artist at the Middle Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm and his strength was extremely high among the Bai Family's younger generation. Amongst all the younger generation of the Bai Family, only Hong Yu, an inner disciple of the Snow Cold Palace, could defeat him.
"Okay!" Bai Tian responded and then looked at Ye Xiao as he said indifferently, "Get off yourself. I'm too lazy to do anything."
Ye Xiao stood with his hands behind his back and did not say anything. At the same time, he did not put Bai Tian in his eyes at all. Ye Xiao had long since gotten used to the arrogance of the people of the Bai Family.
"Didn't you hear what I said? I told you to scram. If I attacked you, perhaps you would not even have the qualifications to scram. I'll directly take your life."
Bai Tian frowned and said when he saw no reaction from Ye Xiao.
People of the Bai Family are truly as annoying as ever. With that tiny bit of strength, Do you really think you are invincible? Before I change my mind about killing you, why not admit defeat?" Ye Xiao shook his head which made everyone's eyes freeze. Then he said something that really made people freeze.
Immediately, someone sneered and wondered if this person was crazy.
It has to know that the people with the strongest cultivation that Ye Xiao killed were all at the Early Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm while Bai Tian was at the Middle Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm. The difference between the two is very huge.
"This little fellow is really arrogant." Su Xuan's beautiful eyes froze as she gently wrinkled her eyebrows and said. She knew that Ye Xiao's strength was extraordinary but it was still extremely difficult for him to defeat Bai Tian.
"Madness is because he has the capital to be mad." Feng Wuji smiled faintly. He had a lot of trust in Ye Xiao.
Su Xuan's face carried a hint of astonishment. She understood the man in front of her very well. He had never given such a high evaluation to anyone before.
At this moment, Bai Tian's face was extremely unsightly. He did not expect that an unknown person would actually dare to talk to him in such a manner. He was the second strongest person in Bai Family's younger generation, someone who was highly regarded by the family.
"Kill him." Bai Ming roared. His voice was cold and indifferent, causing everyone's expression to freeze. Of course, there were a few among them who knew of the grudge between Ye Xiao and the Bai Family, and all of them revealed excited expressions.
It was clear that this would definitely be an intense battle and the Bai Family would not let Ye Xiao off. Even the City Lord could not blame them for killing him in the arena.
"Alright." When Bai Tian heard the anger in the Bai Family's patriarch's voice, his figure flashed at an incredible speed. He didn't even plan to give Ye Xiao the chance to admit defeat.
"Mad Fist." Bai Tian gave a loud roar as his fist whistled through the air. It was incomparably terrifying as if even the air itself was being torn apart by his fist's strength.
However, Ye Xiao did not move the entire time. When the Mad Fist was about to arrive, a bright light covered everything and the spear light descended from the sky.
"Pfft!"
With a flash of light, everything quieted down. After that, Ye Xiao jumped down from the platform with an indifferent expression and returned to Feng Wuji's side.
"This battle, Ye Xiao won." Wu Xiu said in a clear voice as the shock in his eyes faded.
"What happened?" Everyone present looked at each other. They clearly didn't understand what had happened. Bai Tian was still standing perfectly fine on the platform. He was also the one who attacked with his Mad Fist Technique. It was Ye Xiao who jumped down from the platform. It should be Bai Tian's victory then why did Wu Xiu announced Ye Xiao's victory?
"Plop!"
As if answering those people, Bai Tian's body fell to the ground with a thud. Fresh blood flowed out of his chest.
The crowd silently looked at the corpse on the ground and felt as if they were in a dream. A single strike, just a single strike was enough to kill a martial artist at the Middle Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm.
The powerful and tyrannical Bai Tian was directly killed and they didn't even have the chance to admit defeat.
The crowd swallowed their saliva. They didn't even see the spear light that descended from the sky clearly because that spear was really too fast. It was as fast as lightning and it did not allow them to react.
The scene was abnormally quiet. Even the heads of the three great families were filled with shock. Mo Li and Mu Yi were shocked. They were shocked because that spear attack was too astonishing. It was not something that someone of Ye Xiao's age could use.
Ye Xiao only sneered in his heart. It was not that he used any technique to kill Bai Shan. After all, he could not use any technique because of his destroyed world.
The moment Bai Shan attacked him with his Mad Fist, Ye Xiao used "Soul Destruction" to destroy the soul of Bai Shan. After that, he took out his Sea Dragon Spear and covered it with Heavenly Thunder while randomly thrusting it towards Bai Shan.
Bai Shan was already killed so he was not able to block Ye Xiao's attack, causing Ye Xiao's spear to pierce in Bai Shan's chest. After that, Ye Xiao kept the spear and walked down the platform.
All of this happened in the span of two to four seconds. This was not enough time for anyone to see clearly what happened, causing everyone's confusion.
Bai Ming's face could no longer be described as gloomy. At the moment, his face really looked too ugly. The second person in the younger generation of Bai Family, a genius whom they had cultivated with all their might, had actually been defeated so easily, without even being able to block a single attack from his opponent.
"I've said it before, don't underestimate this little fellow."
A hint of surprise also flashed through Feng Wuji's eyes but he quickly recovered and said to Su Xuan who was sitting by his side. He knew Ye Xiao would win but he did not expect him to win so thoroughly.
"Whew." Su Xuan's supple breasts heaved as she let out a long sigh of relief. Only then did she manage to recover. However, the shock in her eyes did not recede as she said: "It really is unexpected."
"Big brother is so powerful." Feng Zhidie said in surprise. Although she had been under Feng Wuji's protection since she was young, she was not a simple person. Even after seeing such a bloody scene, she did not feel any fear. It has to know that she was only around 12 years old.
"This little bastard." In his heart, Bai Ming could not help but start to pay more attention to Ye Xiao. If this continues, this brat might really be able to defeat everyone and help City Lord's Mansion get a chance to enter Nature's Chakra.
You dare to kill him?" Bai Ming stared at Ye Xiao coldly, wishing that he could slap him to death.
Ye Xiao sneered in disdain: "Do you think that I should just stand there and let him kill me?" Pausing, Ye Xiao continued: "Your Bai Family is really shameless."
"You…" Bai Ming choked on Ye Xiao's words. He looked at Ye Xiao in anger and said, "You little bastard, remember, my Bai Ming will definitely kill you."
"Fine, as long as I meet someone with Bai Family, I won't show any mercy and will directly kill them." Ye Xiao also replied coldly.
"Hua!"
The entire audience went into an uproar and everyone stared at Ye Xiao as if he was an idiot. A brat like him actually dared to challenge the entire Bai Family. Even though Ye Xiao had already displayed his superhuman battle power, in front of such a colossal being like Bai Family, he was still nothing more than an ant. They did not believe that the City Lord's Mansion would completely fall out with the Bai Family just because of Ye Xiao.
"Bai Yun, come here." Bai Ming said to a young man who was also shocked.
"Second Grandpa, what's the matter?" Bai Yun walked over and asked doubtfully.
"This is a treasure weapon that Big Brother refined. If you can use it once, the attack inside would be equivalent to the full power of a person at the Late Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm. When you meet that brat later, use this treasure weapon to kill him."
Bai Ming took out a white jade pagoda from his bosom as he spoke to Bai Yun. There was a mysterious rune on the pagoda. Amongst the disciples of the Bai Family, Hong Yu was the strongest. He wanted to let Hong Yu fight Ye Xiao and kill him but this Ye Xiao was truly strange. He did not dare to let Hong Yu take the risk. If Hong Yu really lost, she will also be killed by Ye Xiao and they will lose yet another genius of their Bai family.
Thus, he decided to give a disciple of the Bai Family named Bai Yun the treasure of their family so that he could kill Ye Xiao. This time, he was really going to go all out.
Bai Yun's expression changed, "The second grandfather, this is against the rules. I am afraid the Mo family, Mu Family, and even City Lord's Mansion will not agree."
"So what if they don't agree? Don't tell me that they actually dare to open a fight with our Bai Family?" Bai Ming sneered. After all these years of support from the Snow Cold Palace, their strength had long since far surpassed the Mo family and Mu Family. The only thing they were afraid of was the City Lord's Mansion.
However, this Ye Xiao and City Lord's Mansion were not related in any way. Even if they killed Ye Xiao, would Feng Wuji really stand up against them for the sake of a brat who came from who knows where?
Feng Wuji only came to Ye Xiao to get the quota to enter Nature's Chakra, so they can just hand over a spot to enter Nature's Chakra after killing Ye Xiao. This way, Feng Wuji will definitely not say or do anything.
However, this brat who dared to kill their Bai Family's disciples multiple times and humiliate them must die. Even if he were to use such a despicable method, Ye Xiao still had to die."Yes." Bai Yun hesitated for a moment but still nodded his head and kept the white jade pagoda in his bosom. After all, he was still just a junior. Even though he was an inner disciple of the Snow Cold Palace, his status within the clan was not high. Thus, he could only obey.
"The second round of the competition will continue." Wu Xiu glanced at the eight people and said, "You can choose your own opponent for this round."
"Ugh!"
Ye Xiao and the rest of the seven people were stunned. They obviously did not expect that it would be this rule, but it was not a bad thing.
Although the second strongest person of the Bai Family's younger generation had been killed by Ye Xiao earlier, there was still the Middle Stage Immortal Lord Realm martial artist in the Bai Family. They were Hong Yu and Bai Yun.
"Brother Mo Long, please give your guidance."
"Please advise me, Mu Chengyan."
"Brother Mo Liang, please enlighten me."
After the end of the first round of the competition, Bai Family had five people left. Ye Xiao killed Bai Tian, making the number even. Now Bai Family had only four people left to compete in the second round of the competition for Nature's Chakra.
Three of them hurriedly choose their opponents. Only a disciple named Bai Yu didn't choose his opponent yet. It was clear that his opponent was Ye Xiao who was also the only one left.
Bai Yu's face was pale as he glared at Bai Yan. He had originally wanted to challenge Mo Liang but who would have thought that Bai Yan would snatch the opportunity away.
Even though Mo Liang was also in the Early Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm, he would at the very least be able to save his life. However, against Ye Xiao, the god of death, the only path left for him was to die. He remembered very clearly the words of Ye Xiao. He clearly said before that he will kill every disciple of the Bai Family he would meet in the competition.
"It is now just the two of us." Ye Xiao smiled at Bai Yu, causing him to stagger and almost fall on his butt.
"Haha."
Seeing Bai Yu in such a sorry state, the audience burst into laughter. Who would have thought that the normally arrogant and despotic Bai Family's people would be in such a miserable state? This was a huge matter regarding the Blue Wind City.
"Useless trash." Bai Ming glared at Bai Yu angrily and said, "He is just a little brat, do you really have to be scared like this?"
"Yes, disciple understands." Bai Yu's face was pale as he looked at Bai Ming in fear.
"Since you have already chosen your opponents, then prepare for battle." Wu Xiu raised his eyes slightly and said at this moment.
There was no suspense in the first three battles. Bai Yun had defeated Mo Long, Hong Yu had won over Mu Chengyan, and Mo Liang had won over Bai Yan.
There was also no suspense in the fourth match. Ye Xiao really did as he was told to do; kill anyone from the Bai Family. Once on the stage, Ye Xiao immediately used Spirit Devour Escape to appear in front of Bai Yu, not giving Bai Yu the chance to speak. He used his spear to stab into his chest, killing him in an instant.
"This bastard." Bai Ming's eyes turned red and a powerful aura burst out from his body. He directed his aura towards Ye Xiao.
"Elder Bai Ming, what you are doing is a little too much." Feng Wuji let out a cold snort. His aura also erupted and blocked Bai Ming's might.
"This brat is vicious, he should be killed." Bai Ming said coldly.
"Elder Bai Ming, have you forgotten that this is a competition? Both sides will naturally use all their strength. It is understandable for them to accidentally kill each other. Furthermore, all these years, due to this competition of Nature's Chakra, haven't there been many people who died at the hands of your Bai Family's disciples? Now, it is your Bai Family's disciples' turn to die, you are saying that Ye Xiao is vicious? Or perhaps, only you are allowed to kill others and others cannot resist?"
Feng Wuji smiled coldly at Bai Ming and said all the things he wanted to say for years. This Bai Family was really too arrogant.
In addition, the people from the Mo and Mu Family families were also sneering at Bai Family. In these past few years, who knew how many people from their families had died at the hands of the Bai Family. Many young talents died in the competition of Nature's Chakra, and those were the future hope of the two families.
In the end, they were killed mercilessly by the disciples of the Bai Family. By killing the people of the Bai Family, Ye Xiao had undoubtedly made the Mu and Mo Families feel great pleasure in their hearts. If Bai Family wanted to make a move now, they would not mind joining hands with City Lord's Mansion to suppress the Bai Family.
"Hmph."
Bai Ming snorted coldly after hearing what Feng Wuji said. The anger in his heart was burning but he could not vent it out.
If there were only one of the Mo Family and Mu Family, or perhaps only the City Lord's Mansion, they could have just ignored them. However, once the three families joined forces, even their Bai Family would only end up with failure and might be destroyed by the joined forces of the three powers.
I'll let you all be complacent for a while. When the major event comes to an end, this Blue Wind City will also be ours." Bai Ming sneered in his heart while looking at Feng Wuji coldly.
Next was the contest for the top two seats. According to the rules of the tournament, it would also be a Challenge Competition.
Hong Yu challenged Mo Family's Mo Liang and won the battle, leaving Bai Yun to challenge Ye Xiao. The disciple of the Mo Family was left to be challenged by Hong Yu and the winner of the battle between Ye Xiao and Bai Yun.
"For the next battle, Ye Xiao against Bai Family's Bai Yun."
Wu Xiu said indifferently but his eyes were staring at Ye Xiao. He really wanted to know if this young man would choose to kill another cultivator of the Bai Family or not.
"Kill, kill!"
The crowd below also continuously shouted as they watched Ye Xiao jump onto the stage. While Ye Xiao's words had shocked the audience previously and were left dumbfounded when they saw Ye Xiao adhere to his words, killing another disciple of the Bai Family, this time, they really felt their blood boiling.
This was something these people did not dare to do even though they wanted to. They yearned to be so cold-blooded and decisive, and kill the people of the Bai Family but they could not since they didn't have the power to do so.
The shouts were earth-shattering, causing Bai Ming's face to turn darker and darker.
"Find an opportunity to use the treasure weapon. If you don't succeed, admit defeat immediately." Bai Ming instructed Bai Yun.
"Alright." Bai Yun nodded his head but a look of eagerness flashed past his eyes.
Although his reputation was not as well-known as Bai Tian's, he was still a member of the Bai Family. From his point of view, bai Tian had underestimated his opponent and was only killed by Ye Xiao with a single spear strike.
In his battle with Ye Xiao, he must defeat Ye Xiao this time. That way he would be able to become famous. Furthermore, he did not believe that Ye Xiao was able to defend against the full power remnants of the Eighth Level of Refined Body Stage Warriors.
Ye Xiao's eyes looked coldly at Bai Ming. How powerful was his Divine Sense? How could he not hear what Bai Ming was saying to Bai Yun? He had clearly heard what Bai Ming said to Bai Yun.
Wanting to plot against him?
"I will definitely give it my all in this battle. I will definitely defeat you and show off the might of my Bai Family." Bai Yun's gaze fell on Ye Xiao as he said. He was prepared to use Ye Xiao as a stepping stone for him to rise to fame.
"Then hurry up and come down. Don't waste my time!" Ye Xiao sneered at Bai Yun and gestured him to come down with his finger. He wanted to see how Bai Yun would show off his Bai Family's might while using him as a stepping stone.
"Magic Ape Arm." Even though Bai Yun wanted to make a name for himself, he did not dare to underestimate Ye Xiao.
He used his martial arts technique and his arm transformed into a black arm of an ape. The black arm was half a meter large. It smashed down towards Ye Xiao with a tyrannical power. A violent wind swept apart and the battle stage seemed to be about to break apart at this moment.
"Spirit Devour Escape!"
Ye Xiao used the Spirit Devour Escape and with a light step, he disappeared and reappeared behind Bai Yun.
"What incredible speed." Bai Yun's expression changed and he was about to use the white jade pagoda that Bai Ming gave him.
However, how could Ye Xiao, who already knew of their scheme, give him the chance to do so? A resplendent spear light thrust through the air, bringing along many strands of Thunder, and flashed past Bai Yun.
Bai Yun's black Magic Ape Arm was smashed and was shattered into pieces. But this was not all as.....
"Is this death?"
A hint of fear could be seen in Bai Yun's eyes. The moment the spear was thrust, he could feel his death coming from behind. Helpless, he was unable to resist.
BOOM!
After Bai Yun finished saying those words, his body also fell down to the ground, causing a burst of dust to rise up.
"Roar!"
After a moment of silence, the crowd burst into cheers. Ye Xiao had given them too many surprises.
"What a kid."
Wu Xiu was also very impressed. Every time Ye Xiao fought, he would only use one move, and that one move was enough to kill his opponent.
"This little bastard." Bai Ming was so angry that smoke started coming out of his head. The dense Spiritual Energy on his body erupted and the ground under his feet turned into powder.
"Little bastard, don't be complacent. Unless you spend your entire life hiding in the City Lord's Mansion, this old man will definitely kill you." Bai Ming looked at Ye Xiao and shouted coldly in anger.
Ye Xiao twitched his mouth and ignored Bai Ming's threat. Instead, he squatted down and started rummaging through Bai Yun's body.
Seeing Ye Xiao's actions, Bai Ming's face changed and he suddenly stood up.
"Found it." The moment Bai Ming stood up, Ye Xiao also grinned. He took out a white jade pagoda from Bai Yun's body and smiled at the ashen-faced Bai Ming.
"Kid, hand over that thing to me." Bai Ming said gloomily. Although the white jade pagoda was only a one-time use treasure weapon, the value of the full power attack that was sealed within the white jade pagoda was unimaginable.
"Hand it over?"
"Sure."
Ye Xiao grinned and threw the white jade pagoda in his hand towards Bai Family.
The patriarch of the Mo Family, Mo Li, and the Patriarch of the Mu Family, Mu Yi looked at the white jade pagoda with doubt. They obviously did not understand what this was that made Bai Ming so nervous.
"This kid." Feng Wuji looked at the pagoda and smiled knowingly. Ye Xiao's little trick could not be hidden from him.
Bai Ming caught the pagoda in his hand. He was also confused as to why this brat was so obedient.
"Explode!"
Above the battle, Ye Xiao shouted and clenched his fist at the same time.
BOOM!
The white jade pagoda exploded in an instant, and a terrifying energy erupted in that instant.
"Boom!"
The spirit energy storm engulfed the area and the Bai Family area was instantly filled with smoke and dust.
Feeling the violent energy, the expression of Mu Family's people beside Mu Yi changed. From the depths of his palm, Spiritual Energy roiled and blocked the violent energy fluctuations.
"What is going on?"
Everyone at the scene also had a look of doubt and shock on their faces. Why did such a thing happen when Ye Xiao threw something out?
"Heh heh, this time, the Bai Family is like a piece of cake." Mu Yi and Mo Li looked at each other and smiled.
Bai Yun was also at the Middle Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm, a genius that was rarely seen in the Bai Family. However, with his identity, it was clear that he was not at the level of having this kind of treasure weapon.
Adding to the fact that Bai Ming had called Bai Yun over to whisper something in his ear, it was obvious that Bai Ming had given it to Bai Yun to use against Ye Xiao. It was just that Bai Yun was too arrogant and had been killed with a single attack of Ye Xiao.
"Bastard, I'll kill you."
A furious voice came out from the smoke and dust. Following that, a figure quickly burst out from the smoke and flew towards Ye Xiao with a cold aura.
Ye Xiao's expression didn't change. He calmly used the Spirit Devour Escape to dodge Bai Ming's attack.
After missing the hit, Bai Ming's face became even gloomier as he was ready to attack Ye Xiao once again. He quickly attacked Ye Xiao with his palm.
"Humph!" Feng Wuji let out a cold snort and jumped up, blocking in front of Ye Xiao. Feng Wuji waved his sleeve and a soft aura burst out. That seemingly soft sleeve instantly became as hard as refined iron, smashing against Bai Ming's palm.
BOOM!
A dull sound rang out and everyone felt the space tremble. Immediately after, Bai Ming spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards with a pale face.
"Bai Ming, you have repeatedly tried to kill the candidate who has participated in the competition of Nature's Chakra. Do you really think that my City Lord's Mansion is empty?" Feng Wuji said with a cold voice. His eyes shot out a light like lightning as he stared coldly at Bai Ming.
Mo Li and Mu Yi's expressions changed when they felt the powerful aura of Feng Wuji who was only half a step away from breaking through to the Martial King Realm.
