The referee looked at the cracks with concern. If the third arena was destroyed a few more times like this, it would probably be doomed.
Today’s young people were really amazing. Each one was more capable than the other.
If such a competition was held in the future, the arena must be built more solidly or it wouldn’t be able to withstand the damage caused by repeated battles.
In the past, Bai Qiaomo always dealt with opponents very quickly, sending them off the stage with just one short strike. The longest battle never lasted more than two minutes.
This time, the two of them fought for more than ten minutes and were still deadlocked. From time to time, Xiong Kui’s excited or angry roars could be heard.
Everyone could clearly see that such a stalemate wasn’t good for Bai Qiaomo. It was because compared to Xiong Kui, Bai Qiaomo would consume more energy.
In particular, he had fought so many battles before. The longer the time dragged on, the more likely it was that Bai Qiaomo would lose.
If he couldn’t increase his speed, Xiong Kui would catch up and punch him. Then the consequences would be unimaginable.
Another bang was heard on the stage, and Bai Qiaomo’s figure flew backwards. Then he bounced back using the force of the spear stabbing into the ground.
His opponent, Xiong Kui, actually took two steps back.
After fighting for more than ten minutes, this was the first time that Bai Qiaomo used his strength to force Xiong Kui to retreat.
Both of them stopped. Everyone realized that Xiong Kui’s arms and back were covered with bloody marks from Bai Qiaomo’s spear. It turned out that his physical defense wasn’t indestructible.
Xiong Kui also felt the pain. His eyes turned red with anger. He pounded his chest with his fists and roared angrily. “I will tear you apart, tear you in half. Roar!”
After Xiong Kui roared, he increased his speed. He stepped on the cracks on the arena surface and ran toward Bai Qiaomo.
He relied on his physical strength to increase his speed. He was indeed much faster than before.
Just now, Bai Qiaomo stabbed his spear into the surface of the arena. When he pulled it out, not only were there cracks on the surface but there were also spider web patterns. The referee suspected that the arena was making a creaking sound as if unable to support itself.
Bai Qiaomo held the spear and thrust it forward. At this time, Zong Yupao discovered that his aura changed again. A terrifying aura had appeared. What was this?
“Thunder Spear, Thunder’s Wrath!”
Bai Qiaomo didn’t retreat to avoid Xiong Kui’s fierce attack. Instead, he faced the challenge head-on. However, at this moment, the spear in his hand underwent an amazing change. The tip of the spear actually flashed with thunderbolts. At the same time, it stabbed forward at a speed that couldn’t be seen with the naked eye.
The two figures on the stage quickly overlapped.
If the cultivator was a bit more timid, he might not even dare to watch the next scene. Perhaps this one strike would determine the outcome.
In the eyes of many people, Bai Qiaomo was really going to fall at Xiong Kui’s hands this time.
There was silence in the audience. No one spoke. Everyone was staring at the battle on the stage.
Suddenly, there was the sound of electric currents. Looking carefully, Bai Qiaomo didn’t fly backward. Instead, the spear in his hand was still moving forward.
The humanoid beast-like Xiong Kui stood there and twitched all over.
Looking more closely, the tip of Bai Qiaomo’s spear was right against Xiong Kui’s chest.
Blood was seeping out of the indestructible skin, and the outer clothes were stained red.
Then Bai Qiaomo pulled out the spear. Xiong Kui, who had always only roared, let out a scream at this time and fell back heavily, his body still twitching.
At this time, everyone noticed that there were flashing thunderbolts on Bai Qiaomo’s palms and spear. As the energy he released gradually retracted into his body, the thunderbolt flashes gradually disappeared.
Bai Qiaomo was still the same Bai Qiaomo. Everything just now was like an illusion, and it seemed a bit unreal.
Feng Ming jumped and shouted excitedly. “Okay, Brother Bai. Bai Qiaomo, you are too handsome. You are the most handsome.”
Everyone finally reacted and exploded in an instant.
“Bai Qiaomo actually won? That big guy Xiong Kui failed?:
“What did Bai Qiaomo cultivate?”
“He just used the power of thunder and lightning. Did he cultivate the power of thunder?”
“I thought he would lose, but I didn’t expect him to win. No matter how strong Xiong Kui’s physical strength it, his defense was broken by Bai Qiaomo, and everything became a matter of course.”
“What is a matter of course? Why don’t you go on stage and try it yourself to see if you can break it.”
Ji Yuan actually laughed. “I was worried about this guy for nothing.” He turned his head and saw Zong Yupao’s not very surprised expression. He couldn’t help asking, “Did you expect it?”
Zong Yupao despised him. “That is because you are short-sighted and didn’t notice it.”
Ji Yuan gritted his teeth. Would this guy die if he didn’t belittle others?
Qiu Yi defended Senior Brother Ji. “Senior Brother Zong, I didn’t notice it either. I also thought Bai Qiaomo would lose.”
“You are both short-sighted.” Zong Yupao showed no signs of caring about kinship at all.
Ji Yuan gritted his teeth. He took Qiu Yi away from Zing Yupao and said, “Forget it. He will taste Bai Qiaomo’s power once he faces Bai Qiaomo on the stage.”
Zong Yupao was rude to him, but Qiu Yi still hoped that his uncle would win the championship. Now he was a bit worried.
The fight on the stage hadn’t ended yet. Bai Qiaomo thrust his spear forward and lifted the large man, who weighed several hundred kilograms, off the stage.
Upon seeing this, the referee helplessly announced the result. “Bai Qiaomo successfully defended the arena again. Xiong Kui failed in the challenge.”
Many people looked at Xiong Kui, who had lost his combat effectiveness, in a gloating manner. How arrogant he was in the beginning, and how miserable he was now.
The power of thunder was sent into the body, especially the heart. This must not be a pleasant feeling. Was this injury easy to treat? Could Xiong Kui still participate in the arena battles in the next two days?
If he really couldn’t participate in the competition, the other seeded players would thank Bai Qiaomo for doing a good deed.
Xiong Kui’s body fell heavily in front of Gong Liquan’s group. As proud as Gong Liquan was before, now he was just as annoyed.
He even sent out Xiong Kui, but still failed to capture Bai Qiaomo. The result was completely different from what he expected.
He thought that Bai Qiaomo would be defeated by Xiong Kui. Not only would he be defeated, but he would also be seriously injured by Xiong Kui’s ‘accidental’ move, which would prevent him from participating in the next two days of the arena battles, missing the finals.
Unexpectedly, the result was reversed. Now it was unknown if Xiong Kui could participate in the next two days of the competition.
Gong Liquan knew even without looking that many people were laughing at them, which made him even more annoyed.
He took his anger out on the people around him. “Why don’t you give Xiong Kui the pill quickly and cure him?”
The lackey around him immediately came out, took out a pill, and put it into Xiong Kui’s mouth. As a result, when he touched Xiong Kui, he started to tremble as if he had been electrocuted. This made him scream, and the people around him also screamed.
The chief referee was also paying attention to the fight in the third arena. Seeing this, he walked down from the referee’s seat, checked Xiong Kui’s condition, and drew out the thunder energy remaining in his body and heart. It was only then that Xiong Kui stopped twitching.
At this time, the lackey hurriedly put a healing pill into Xiong Kui’s mouth. Then he dispatched several people to help Xiong Kui up and send him back to continue healing and regulating his breathing
Feng Ming looked at Gong Liquan’s group proudly. Let them send people to the stage to continue to challenge. He wanted to see what type of people they could send.
Gong Liquan gritted his teeth in anger, but he was really helpless against Bai Qiaomo and Feng Ming.
In fact, the time for today’s arena battle to end was very close.
Bai Qiaomo stopped regulating his breathing. His face was pale as he grabbed his spear and asked, “Is there anyone else coming up to challenge me?”
Bai Qiaomo looked around and found that no one was willing to take the challenge. Perhaps they were shocked by the power of Bai Qiaomo’s previous spear and didn’t think they had the ability to defeat him.
Even the disciples of Sihong Academy took two steps back and shook their heads when they met Bai Qiaomo’s gaze. They refused to go on stage.
Bai Qiaomo looked around and saw that no one was accepting the challenge, so he asked, “How much time is left?”
The referee replied, “There is only one minute left, and today’s arena battle will be over. Contestants, please hurry up and fight for the position of champion.”
There was some agitation at the scene. There was only one minute left. Were the 20 champions of the first day going to be decided? Many people didn’t have time to see the situation of other people defending the arena. Was it because they missed too many opportunities due to Bai Qiaomo?
Bai Qiaomo smiled and pointed his spear forward. “Yu Bin, come up.”
Yu Bin was standing behind Pei Yingmin at this time. After Bai Qiaomo finished speaking, Pei Yingmin grabbed him and pushed him forward. “Go to the stage.”
Yu Bin was forced to helplessly jump onto the stage. Before he started, when the referee announced the start of the match, Bai Qiaomo smiled. “I’m too exhausted to fight. I admit defeat in this defense battle.”
After Bai Qiaomo finished speaking, he turned around and jumped off the stage, leaving many people dumbfounded.
At this time, the bell announcing the end of the first day of arena battles rang. This meant that the 20 champions remaining in the arena at this time were the ones who would qualify today to participate in the final.
Was Bai Qiaomo really completely powerless? He just had to stand on the stage a bit longer, and he would be the champion.
So he clearly gave the title of champion to his fellow student. Yu Bin picked up a ready-made championship, successfully entered the finals, and became one of the top 60.
Wasn’t this infuriating and made people jealous?
Well, actually, Yu Bin was in the middle stage of the essence liquid realm, and his cultivation was quite solid. Seeing Bai Qiaomo fighting on the stage, he was eager to come up and challenge him. However, things turned out like this.
He looked at Senior Brother Pei with a helpless expression. What should he do? Didn’t this seem a bit unfair?
Pei Yingmin waved at him and said, “Just get the quota first. Who said that this is an unfair victory? There is no rule in the arena competition that says this practice is against regulations.”
Feng Ming didn’t care about this at all. The moment Bai Qiaomo stepped down from the stage, he rushed over, supported him, and put a pill into his mouth immediately.
This time, the people around them saw it clearly. It was truly a best-grade pill. The pill’s aroma was so dazzling that it blinded their eyes.
Bai Qiaomo pretended to be weak and was supported by him. He smiled and shook his head. ‘I’m fine. I just didn’t win the championship today.”
Feng Ming told him, “It’s okay. We will continue tomorrow.”
The contestants who wanted to compete for the championship tomorrow had a headache. They hoped this type of thing wouldn’t happen again tomorrow.
