C2016 Gong Qianye, who was unable to calm down his anger
"Wild Sword Slash, break for me!"
Both of Xing Honglian's eyes congealed, the dense spirit energy around him trembled and her red robes fluttered, the Grade Four Spirit Weapon treasure sword in her hand had already condensed into a finger long sword aura, from it, an extremely berserk power was being released.
As he rushed to Shangguan Chenyuan's front, Xing Honglian stabbed out with his sword that contained an astonishing sword intent. The sword aura emitted violent energy fluctuations, and the powerful sword force behind was like a tide as it swept high above Xing Honglian's head, towards the direction the treasured sword was pointed at, sweeping out violently, pouring down in a torrent, assaulting Shangguan Chenyuan.
"Hualala!"
Facing Xing Honglian's especially fearsome sword, Shangguan Chenyuan felt a little guilty. Not daring to take the attack head on, he turned the attack into defense, and with a wave of his fan, the huge fan made of energy formed a wall of defense in front of him, blocking Xing Honglian's attack.
"Bang!"
"Boom!"
Xing Honglian was imbued with an astonishing sword intent. She surged with powerful spirit energy, carried with him a berserk sword aura, and stabbed at the huge fan made from berserk sword aura, and immediately, a deafening sound of energy clashing exploded out, as though two berserk waves had collided. The wave of energy poured down and the sword aura, force, and the huge fan made of energy and sword aura counteracted each other, disappearing very quickly.
As for that sword strike that contained an astonishing sword intent, it had already reached Shangguan Chenyuan's throat. As long as Xing Honglian was willing, she could immediately end Shangguan Chenyuan's life.
"I admit defeat." A bitter look appeared in Shangguan Chenyuan's eyes as he smiled bitterly. He knew that he would never have the chance to meet Xing Honglian again in this lifetime.
Although some of Shangguan Chenyuan's female fans were extremely repulsive, Shangguan Chenyuan himself had always treated Xing Honglian very well. Adding that Shangguan Chenyuan was the second ranked disciple of the Sky Cloud Martial School, killing him would be troublesome, so even though Xing Honglian could obviously kill Shangguan Chenyuan, she still showed mercy.
"Phew!"
Seeing that Xing Honglian had showed mercy, some of the elders and disciples from the Sky Cloud Martial School who had come this time heaved a sigh of relief.
"Shangguan Tianyun has actually lost!"
"Damn it, that Xing Honglian is really not a thing. She actually caused Shangguan Nu Shen to lose the title of one of the top 100 geniuses, you slut!"
"That's right, moreover, she actually showed mercy when she clearly had the chance to kill male god Shangguan. In my opinion, she has fallen for us male gods and didn't even take a piss to take care of herself. What virtue do you have to dare to like us, male gods Shangguan!"
"?"
Seeing that Shangguan Chenyuan had lost, a few of Shangguan Chenyuan's brainless female fans started to curse at Xing Honglian. Some of the disciples of the Sky Cloud Martial School found it hard to listen to this.
"All of you shut up, don't attract any attention from Senior Shangguan!"
"That's right, for Senior Martial Brother Shangguan to have fans like you, he must have had a bad luck for eight lifetimes!"
"That's right. It's a good thing that Lady Xing didn't kill senior brother Shangguan just because of you. Otherwise, you'd be the sinner that caused senior brother Shangguan's death!"
"?"
Some of the disciples from the Sky Cloud Martial School still had lingering fears as they angrily berated Shangguan Chenyuan's fans.
Hearing this, Shangguan Chenyuan's fans reluctantly shut their mouths. This was also the end of the competition, they were not that excited, otherwise, the disciples of the Sky Cloud Martial School would not be able to make them shut up, they were too excited, even Shangguan Chenyuan himself could not make them shut up.
"Lady Xing, thank you for your mercy. The words of my fans are simply too unpleasant to listen to, and they are simply nonsense. Don't be angry, and don't take it to heart. In my heart, you are the most beautiful woman in the world, and no one is more beautiful than you." Shangguan Chenyuan looked at the obviously angry Xing Honglian, and said with a downcast expression, because he knew that there was no possibility at all for him and this bright and beautiful girl.
Hearing Shangguan Chenyuan's sincere words, Xing Honglian's heart was slightly moved. Her expression clearly improved a little as she said, "I also see that you're not as detestable as those fans of yours. Otherwise, I wouldn't have shown mercy just because you're a disciple of the Sky Cloud Martial School."
"Many thanks for your leniency. If you need my help in the future, feel free to speak." Shangguan Chenyuan thanked him and said.
Xing Honglian's lips curved up in a cold and proud smile, and said: "You think, that you'll be able to help me in any way?"
Shangguan Chenyuan was startled when he heard this. He smiled bitterly and said, "It's true that I don't have one. I'm just a defeated opponent."
Having said so, Shangguan Chenyuan left the field in extreme desolation.
Looking at Shangguan Chenyuan's back, Xing Honglian's beautiful eyes twitched, her heart was inexplicably uncomfortable, her brows knitted slightly.1
"You truly are arrogant. If I were to make a move, I would be able to turn you around in one move!" Gong Qianye looked at the arena, then at the incomparably arrogant Xing Honglian who stood against the wind, and said with a face full of displeasure.
After all, Xing Honglian was rather rude, but in the end, there was no blood feud between him and Gong Qianye, and it could only be considered a small conflict.
How could she know that Gong Qianye believed in the spirit of chivalry, and hated people who were rude, arrogant and proud the most. It could be said that she did not take care of Xing Honglian, or even apologize to her, it was difficult for her to suppress the anger in her heart when she saw Xing Honglian.
After all, everyone could see Xing Honglian's strength. As for Gong Qianye's strength, they were not very clear of it, but from the looks of it, Gong Qianye did not participate in the Heaven's Pride King selection, so they thought that her strength was at most at the Eight Star Martial King. How could she be an opponent for the 9-star Martial King?
"Bang, bang, bang!"
"Boom!"
On the stage, the battle between Xing Honglian and Shangguan Chenyuan had ended, but there were still many other fights that were still going on. It was extremely intense, with spirit energy clashing, weapons clashing, martial skills clashing, and competition of talents. It was going on like a raging fire, and from the crowd of people, the sounds of shouting were like a tsunami, earth-shaking.
In the third round of battles, the victor would naturally be hard to determine. As time passed, the battles of the preliminaries would finally come to an end after two hours.
Amongst the 100 geniuses participating in the competition, 50 of them had advanced to the fourth round, and 50 of them had been eliminated, so they had to stop for three rounds.
It had to be said that the selection of the king of heaven's pride level experts was very cruel each year. Some of the top 100 geniuses from the previous years would stop at this stage.
And stopping in this round of the competition meant that there was no chance for him to become one of the top hundred prodigies.
Currently, there were no contestants in the third round, only forty-two contestants who were not participating. In other words, in the main square of the city, there were fifty contestants that were participating in the third round, and because there were only twenty-nine groups, there were twenty-nine fewer contestants in the first two rounds. Naturally, the attention of the contestants in the twenty-one groups was much more than the attention of the contestants in the previous rounds.
