Initially when the Hundred Lane House faced the challenge from the Vase Mound House, Qin Wushuang sent out Fire Kylin to help. Now it seemed to be making a big fuss over minor things.
Now that the Thousand Feather Sect was faced with the Hundred Sword Sect, with the inside information from the Vase Mound Mountain, the Thousand Feather Sect had an initial stage of understanding to the sect’s strength and information. They also had great assurance to be victorious.
Despite not having support from the divine beast, Qin Wushuang specifically loaned them a set of Eighth Calamity Supreme Dao armor. This equipment would guarantee the Thousand Feather Sect to stay undefeated in the third-tier battle.
Indeed, the situation with the Hundred Sword Sect was not much different than the Vase Mound Mountain. In the first round, they could not stir up anything interesting. Besides the sealed beast soul, there was nothing worth noticing.
For the Thousand Feather Sect, besides two chiefs at the Supreme Dao Stage, they had other elite warriors close to the Supreme Dao Stage. Under the protection of the Eighth Calamity Transformation Supreme Dao armor, along with nice attack weapons, gaining victory was within Qin Wushuang’s expectation.
On the contrary, ever since the Vase Mound Mountain lost, Xin Tianwen no longer carried much hope for the Hundred Sword Sect. Now, he was somewhat regretful. If he knew this was going to happen, he should have gathered his advantages and saved the Heavenly Punishing Villa and Sound of Thunder Sect. When he lent the sealed beast souls to the Hundred Sword Sect and Vase Mound Mountain, they had poor results. He truly suffered a double loss after trying to trick his enemy.
If he lent the two sealed beast souls, given to Hundred Sword Sect and Vase Mound Mountain, to the Heavenly Punishing Villa and Sound of Thunder Sect, the chance for the Heavenly Punishing Villa to win the third-tier battle would have been great.
When the advantages were not gathered, they fell into a completely defeated situation. Not to mention the Hundred Sword Sect and Vase Mound Mountain, even the future of the Heavenly Punishing Villa and Sound of Thunder Sect would be gloomy. With the Heavenly Punishing Villa out, it seemed it would not be far for the Sound of Thunder Sect to reach the same fate.
Xin Tianwen had transformed from being high-spirited before the competition, to gradually getting angry, to almost going mad. Up to this point, he gradually calmed down.
Through Saber Beard’s enlightenment, he also realized that it would not matter even if the challenges from all exterior powerhouses lost. As long as he seized the Heavenly Emperor seat, he could still control the situation.
Therefore, now Xin Tianwen turned a deaf ear to the exterior competitions. He would no longer consider these losses and gains. Rather, he focused on the Heavenly Emperor seat competition.
The failure of the exterior powerhouses made Xin Tianwen even more determined. He was also aware that this was the final opportunity for the Xin Clan to win in the Heavenly Emperor competition. If anything were to happen, this Heavenly Emperor Mountain pageant would become the funeral for the Xin Clan.
If the Yun Clan gained the Heavenly Emperor seat, it would be a different story. If the Qin Clan gained the seat, the Xin Clan would never have the day to turn things around.
There was a reason for Xin Tianwen to stay calm and collected. As he expected, the Hundred Sword Sect was a hopeless cause.
When they lost in the first round, there was no suspense in the later rounds. Although the Thousand Feather Sect also chose to abandon the second round strategically, in the beginning of the third round, Luo Baiyu, the Head Suzerain of the Thousand Feather Sect did not give the Hundred Sword Sect any chance.
For the Hundred Sword Sect, after they witnessed the defeat of the Vase Mound Mountain, it seemed they did not have the mind to linger in battle. After getting tangled for a while, they just gave up.
Xin Tianwen was fully occupied to get angered by their actions.
Although Wu Xuanhu, the Suzerain of the Hundred Sword Sect was not aware that his son Wu Dingyuan was the biggest undercover agent, Wu Dingyuan’s analysis of the situation and was of protecting themselves, it roused empathy from everyone.
Wu Xuanhu listened to his son’s advice, to give up. Although they lost, Wu Xuanhu was not depressed at all. It was because he knew the power of the Hundred Sword Sect was far inferior to the Thousand Feather Sect. It could not be made up in a day or two.
He felt more gratified that his son, Wu Dingyuan, seemed to have matured. His analysis and grasp of the situation was sharper than his dad’s. To any father that wished great things for their son, the future prospect of his son was worth more to celebrate.
Four of the exterior powerhouse challenges were basically the Qin against the Xin Clan. Without an exception, the three competition that ended resulted in the victory of the Qin Clan.
The spectators began to see the overall trend. The Qin party, Hundred Lane House, Floating Snow House, and Thousand Feather Sect would all win.
For those supported by the Xin Clan, the Vase Mound Mountain, Heavenly Punishing Villa, and Hundred Sword Sect would all lose.
There was one more, the dispute between the Sound of Thunder Sect and Misty Sword Sect. Although they were yet to determine the final winner, with the variability of the Flowing Sound Valley, the Sound of Thunder Sect was not optimistic about it.
Therefore, it could almost be said that up to this point, the Xin Clan suffered a complete defeat!
The competition entered its fifth round and the most complicated triangular relationship. Of course, the three different tiered martial artists sent out by the Xuan Yuan Clan solved much trouble by being their own training partners.
The order of this competition was the Misty Sword Sect against the Sound of Thunder Sect, and the Flowing Sound Valley against the training partners of the Xuan Yuan Clan.
Xuan Yuan Ba began to announce the list of participants.
These two battles would occur at the same time in two different zones. It was to avoid any possibility of cheating due to time differences.
The Misty Sword Sect almost copied the mode of the Floating Snow House. The third-tier of the Misty Sword Sect was Second Suzerain of the sect. He was also a Supreme Dao warrior. He was slightly weaker than Qin Chongyang, but stronger than Qin Taichong.
For the second tier, it would be Purple Flame Electric Beast in which Qin Wushuang loaned to them. The Purple Flame Electric Beast just passed the First Calamity of the Transformation Supreme Dao Stage. When he was in the second-tier, initially he did not possess any advantages when fighting the Fourth Calamity Transformation Supreme Dao sealed beast soul. However, the equipment and weapons Qin Wushuang lent to Purple Flame Electric Beast was no weaker than those he lent to Bao Bao.
Most importantly, Purple Flame Electric Beast was a mutated divine beast. His innate divine skills were strangely powerful. If he were to fight Bao Bao, it would be difficult to say which one of them would win. It will not be difficult for him to deal with the sealed beast soul.
Exactly like the strategy implemented by the Floating Snow House, they would strive for victory in the first two rounds. They would not be needing to fight the third round and make the Sound of Thunder Sect be gloomy.
In fact, Ding Qijian, the Suzerain of the Misty Sword Sect would not be able to defeat Lei Ming.
However, for the three rounds, they would let Lei Ming be like Yan Beifei. Despite having power, they would not have the chance to perform.
The battle went as Qin Wushuang predicted. In the third-tier, Ding Youjian, the Second Suzerain of the Misty Sword Sect did not give the other party any opportunity. He defeated the enemy with swift and clean sword moves.
Clearly, Lei Ming expected this result. Therefore, he gave a death order to that sealed beast soul. Regardless, they had a draw. Even if it were to strive for mutual destruction, it must fight with everything!
However, with the experience from Bao Bao, of course Qin Wushuang would not let Purple Flame Electric Beast suffer the same loss.
Before Purple Flame Electric Beast went on, he reminded him with profound detail to be vigilant of the self-detonation of the core. Although Purple Flame Electric Beast was a rough divine beast, he was somewhat refined in some of his rough ways. Different than Bao Bao’s provocative fighting style, Purple Flame Electric Beast would not refuse to use his brains.
In other words, despite having a rough appearance, the Purple Flame Electric Beast had an exquisite side.
Purple Flame Electric Beast’s weapon was also a Five or Sixth Calamity Genuine Supreme Dao weapon, a pair of Flowing Cloud Flying Claws. These flying claws had formed a mutual understanding with the attacks of Purple Flame Electric Beast.
Besides this weapon, Qin Wushuang also gave him Fire Phoenix armor which would add three times more of the fire attributed divine power.
He had simply equipped the Purple Flame Electric Beast from head to toe. While he tortured his enemy with the Flowing Cloud Flying Claws, he used the Supreme Dao genuine fire to refine himself.
For this Supreme Dao genuine fire, the Purple Flame Electric Beast extracted it from Fire Kylin’s island. For the seed of the immemorial spiritual fire, it unleashed tremendous power.
With the support from the Fire Phoenix armor, the attack formed by this Supreme Dao fire posed the imposing manner to burn all eight desolate lands to the ground. In the midst of the sea of fire, the Purple Flame Electric Beast unleashed his great power on the Xuan Yuan stage.
That sealed beast soul also had an iron will to fight to death with the Purple Flame Electric Beast. It tried to push out the core numerous times, yet Purple Flame Electric Beast stood deadly vigilant with his plan.
As soon as the enemy showed signs to urge out his core, he would pour attacks like pouring water. He would not allow the enemy to have the opportunity to do so.
Purple Flame Electric Beast’s mad attacks were exactly the same as Bao Bao’s.
The attacks from the Flowing Cloud Flying Claws kept injuring the body of the sealed beast soul. The flying claws were a Genuine Supreme Dao weapon. Although some of the attacks did not strike their opponent, every random success contained terrifying power.
The longer the battle, the more courageous Purple Flame Electric Beast fought. Tens and thousands of divine fire spots burned to almost suffocate his opponent. The presence of the core became weaker.
With a rumbling sound, the enemy’s body exploded!
The sealed beast soul sacrificed its body to guide the core. Forming into a lump of extremely bewitching light, like a falling meteor, it rumbled at Purple Flame Electric Beast.
This was a self-destruction attack!
Purple Flame Electric Beast was vigilant of this move as he did not panic. Urging the Fire Phoenix armor to its extreme state, red lights erupted from his entire body. Balls of fire kept scuttling out from him. The entire body of Purple Flame Electric Beast was like a ball of blazing fire, like a phoenix reborn.
The volcanic-like imposing manner and the destructively high temperatures formed circles of fire outside of Purple Flame Electric Beast’s body.
At this moment, Purple Flame Electric Beast also opened his mouth widely. With a roar, he spurt out a burst of lightning through his cold and ghastly iron teeth.
This lightning was purple-colored!
With the purple colored divine lightning shooting out, it shot to the core without warning!
Innate divine skill, Sudden Purple Lighting Thunder!
“Boom!”
Immediately, the power of this purple lightning expelled that beast core to become dull, as it kept trembling. With the sound of an abrupt thunder, the core was completely shattered. Shooting in all directions, it transformed into crumbs!
Purple Flame Electric Beast kept roaring madly. Sweeping with the fire, he rolled in the scattered presence of that core. With the roll of this fire, all the impurity in the surroundings burned into nothing.
In the second round, Purple Flame Electric Beast won!
Instantly, Lei Ming’s expression sank. This Purple Flame Electric Beast used thunder a technique before the Sound of Thunder Sect. This was simply slapping his face.
The Sound of Thunder Sect, disqualified!
The Misty Sword Sect won and advanced to the second round.
If the Flowing Sound Valley wins, they would fight them to determine the winner. If the Flowing Sound Valley lost, the Misty Sword Sect would gain a seat!
