"How... how is this possible?"
Yan Luotian, who had been heavily injured by Yun Shan's single strike and was now lying on the ground, muttered to himself as he gazed at Yun Shan, who still stood tall in mid-air, with eyes full of disbelief.
Before this, he absolutely could not have imagined that he would truly be defeated by Yun Shan in a single blow. Of course, considering they had been fighting for so long prior to that, it wasn't strictly a "one-hit" defeat.
However, this still filled Yan Luotian's heart with a thick sense of unwilling resentment. Clearly, just a second ago, they were engaged in an evenly matched grand battle; why was it that in the very next second, he had suffered such a crushing defeat?
It was this massive contrast that Yan Luotian found impossible to accept.
"I told you, you... are not my target!"
After leaving behind these words, Yun Shan elegantly returned to the ranks of the Jia Ma Empire's team. As for Yan Luotian, because he was already heavily injured, being provoked by Yun Shan caused him to faint on the spot.
With this, the match between the Jia Ma Empire and the Luo Yan Empire was settled. Without any suspense, the Jia Ma Empire emerged as the victor.
Yun Shan's return as the winner was met with cheers from the crowd.
After a day of rest, the duel between the Chu Yun Empire and the Mulan Empire began on the second day. To be honest, whether it was the Jia Ma Empire or the Luo Yan Empire, no one favored the Mulan Empire.
This was because the current Mulan Empire still did not possess a Dou Zong powerhouse.
Although the Mulan Valley of the Mulan Empire possessed the Three Mulan Elders, who were all three at the peak Nine-Star Dou Huang. However, even if the Mulan Empire won the Dou Huang battlefield, what would it matter?
As long as the Chu Yun Empire won one or two of the matches beforehand, they could rely on the points from the Dou Zong battlefield to surpass the Mulan Empire. Therefore, there was basically no suspense in this match between the Chu Yun Empire and the Mulan Empire.
The actual results did not exceed everyone's expectations. In the match between the Chu Yun Empire and the Mulan Empire, although they had only taken the Dou Ling battlefield early on, they were already inherently in an invincible position.
As for the Dou Huang match, although the Mulan Empire won quite beautifully because they had three peak Nine-Star Dou Huang powerhouses, what use was that?
Just when everyone thought the competition between the Chu Yun Empire and the Mulan Empire would end there, a gloomy-faced, white-haired old man from the Chu Yun Empire's side suddenly stepped forward.
"Do not say this old man didn't give you a chance. For the Dou Zong match, I will give you an opportunity. Mulan Elders, the three of you should just come at me together!"
"As long as you win, this Dou Zong match will be counted as your victory! Two envoys of the Sky Serpent Empire, this is an additional match proposed by my Chu Yun Empire, I hope you will grant it!"
The old man first cast a disdainful look at the members of the Mulan Empire, then turned his head to speak to the two notaries from the Sky Serpent Empire.
"As long as your Chu Yun Empire does not feel it is unfair, we naturally will not object!"
To this, the two notaries from the Sky Serpent Empire had no reason to refuse.
After all, this was proposed by the person from the Chu Yun Empire himself!
If the people from the Mulan Empire had brought it up, they certainly would not have agreed!
Now, just as this old man from the Chu Yun Empire said, this was the Chu Yun Empire giving the Mulan Empire a chance.
The members of the Mulan Empire, who originally thought their side had already lost, naturally would not refuse now that they heard a member of the Chu Yun Empire proposing such an extra match format!
To them, there was not a single disadvantage!
One must know that the three Mulan Elders of the Mulan Valley practiced a combined Earth Grade Cultivation Technique.
In other words, when the three of them combined, they could definitely achieve an effect where 1+1+1 was greater than 3. Their Mulan Empire currently had no Dou Zong powerhouse, but they still did not fear a Dou Zong!
The main reason for this was that after the three Mulan Elders joined forces, they could contend against a low-level Dou Zong.
This was the source of their confidence!
"Fine, this was said by your own Chu Yun Empire's people, don't you dare go back on your word!"
One of the three Mulan Elders spoke up at this moment, his voice tinged with excitement.
"Humph, why would I, Xie Bi Yan, bother to lie to your Mulan Empire about such a thing?"
At this point, the old man from the Chu Yun Empire finally announced his name. As it turned out, he was the previous Sect Master of the Chu Yun Empire's Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate.
He was none other than Xie Bi Yan, who had broken through to the Dou Zong realm nearly ten years ago. At the same time, for this Sect Grand Meeting, Xie Bi Yan was also the person Yun Shan was most wary of!
When Xie Bi Yan prepared to fight the three peak Nine-Star Dou Huang powerhouses of the Mulan Empire single-handedly, everyone already understood his objective: to establish dominance.
This Sect Grand Meeting was being held within the borders of the Chu Yun Empire. Now that the people of the other three great empires had come to their Chu Yun Empire, it was no wonder that Xie Bi Yan wanted to use his own strength to intimidate everyone present.
This one-versus-three match quickly commenced.
The Cultivation Technique cultivated by the three Mulan Elders of the Mulan Valley was called the Three Beast Savage Art. When the three of them joined forces to face an enemy, they could gather their Dou Qi together and unleash the strength of a Dou Zong!
Before long, Xie Bi Yan and the three Mulan Elders engaged in a fierce battle.
In the beginning, both sides were trading blows back and forth.
The three Mulan Elders shared a mental connection, which indeed left Xie Bi Yan without a solution for a short period of time. However, as time passed and Xie Bi Yan became familiar with the fighting style of the three Mulan Elders, the scales of victory began to tilt.
In particular, what Xie Bi Yan utilized was Poison Dou Qi. Poison Dou Qi was something that not only made Xie Bi Yan skilled at fighting many while alone, but it also gave him the advantage in a battle of attrition.
Sure enough, as the two sides continued to fight, at some unknown point, the entire competition arena had already been enveloped by a strange purple mist.
This was clearly the effect caused by Xie Bi Yan's Poison Dou Qi.
Although the three Mulan Elders relied on their mental connection to avoid the poison gas from entering their bodies for a short while. As more time passed, they truly began to find it unbearable.
So, after the grand battle between the two sides had continued for a period of time, one of the three Mulan Elders already had a face that was purplish-black.
Needless to say, this was a sign of being poisoned.
Furthermore, the condition of the other two was not much better. Veins bulged on their faces, and the poison gas had already begun to enter their bodies. At this moment, the state of the three had long since begun a straight-line decline.
"Poison Blast!"
Catching the right moment, Xie Bi Yan aimed his right hand at the three Mulan Elders and suddenly clenched his fist.
"Boom!"
The poison gas permeating the arena instantly swallowed the three Mulan Elders in one go. By the time the poison mist dissipated, the three Mulan Elders were lying on the ground, bodies twitching and foaming at the mouth.
"Humph, even when given a chance, you are useless!"
With a soft snort from Xie Bi Yan, he had already turned around and left the arena.
Such a result did not even need the two from the Sky Serpent Empire to be announced. Just like that, Xie Bi Yan had quite easily defeated the three Mulan Elders who possessed a combined-attack technique.
This battle showcased the formidable strength of Xie Bi Yan!
