The Main Thing Was That His Opponent Was Too Weak

Mu Xiaoqi only made two moves. The first was a cyan light that directly controlled all the vines, and the second was the golden blade light.

But with those seemingly casual two moves, Shen Hui coughed up blood and fell off the stage.

Mu Xiaoqi was still completely bewildered as she stood on the stage.

I was extremely nervous when I went on stage just now.

After all, this is not only about the sect's reputation, but also about Senior Brother Xinghe.

Senior Brother Xinghe me so highly, how could I let him down?

So I have to win this battle!

But my opponent looks really strong, I have absolutely no confidence, I'm not going to lose!

Then, the other party started playing with vines?

Is this person an idiot?

What's the meaning of you playing with vines with someone from the Muyue Kingdom like me?

I was still better at playing with those vines than you were back when I wet my pants!

No way... this idiot isn't planning to wrap me in vines, is he...?

Are you playing such a flashy game?

Weren't they rumored to be incredibly strong? Is this all?

Mu Xiaoqi first controlled the vines, then activated the Great Expansion Heavenly Metal Art, and the golden sword light, along with the vines and Shen Hui, instantly killed them all.

It took Mu Xiaoqi a full half minute to realize, "I think I won?"

This Shen Hui is so bad!

Mu Xiaoqi looked completely bewildered, but the bewilderment on the scene far exceeded that of Mu Xiaoqi.

Chu Xinghe had already imagined the scene of Mu Xiaoqi being wrapped up and then deep-fried... no... knocked off the stage.

But what the hell does this sudden change mean?

What happened to the claim that Muyue Kingdom was the weakest? You went up there and instantly killed the peerless genius of Martial Emperor City. Did you even consider the feelings of the Martial Emperor City disciples?

Mu Xiaoqi... you've disappointed me so much!

The entire training ground remained silent for a full half minute, but then a terrifying roar of cheers erupted.

"Xiaoqi is so cool!"

"Xiaoqi is awesome! Last year, even the speed at which Senior Sister Wan Lin was instantly killed wasn't as fast as how quickly you killed the opponent!"

"Who is this Shen Hui...? How can he compare to Senior Sister Wan Lin? Senior Sister Wan Lin looked much more elegant when she was instantly defeated!"

"Exactly... Although he was defeated even faster than Senior Sister Wan Lin, I still think Senior Sister Wan Lin was the most elegant when she was defeated!"

Wan Lin: "￥...￥%%&...&**...*...&"

The Grand Elder was also stunned, but unlike the others, he quickly realized what had happened.

Shen Hui is very strong, incredibly strong.

However, Shen Hui should be practicing the Ten Thousand Woods Heart Sutra of Martial Emperor City. Although it is the top-level cultivation technique of Martial Emperor City, it is not that Zheng Yu forgot that Shen Hui was going to face the disciples of the Muyue Kingdom.

The reason is that in the past, the disciples of the Muyue Kingdom really had no talent whatsoever in cultivating wood-based techniques.

There have been countless instances in the past where wood-based techniques were used to completely overwhelm the disciples of the Muyue Kingdom.

Some outsiders even mocked that the disciples of the Muyue Kingdom, despite possessing the best Wood Spirits, couldn't even utilize the most basic wood-based cultivation techniques.

Therefore, Zheng Yu's choice itself was not wrong. We are all of the wood element, so how could my Ten Thousand Woods Heart Sutra not subdue the people of your Muyue Kingdom?

Zheng Yu's mistake was that he didn't understand the current disciples of the Muyue Kingdom. After Xinghe gave the Mu Muyue Kingdom opportunity to cultivate both metal and fire, the disciples not only became incredibly powerful in the metal and fire elements, but even their wood element was activated.

Moreover, the Grand Elder knows that even though Xiaoqi's cultivation level is ranked last in the three hundred miles, Xiaoqi's talent is definitely among the top ten.

His Wood Spirit essence was of unparalleled purity.

He likes to slack off, not that he's incompetent!

Therefore, Shen Hui's vine attacks were like child's play to Xiaoqi. Then, that final strike with the Great Expansion Heavenly Metal Art showcased the ultimate power of metal over wood, and Shen Hui was killed without even a chance to resist...

However, compared to Xiaoqi's easy victory, the Grand Elder was truly satisfied when he looked at Chu Xinghe!

It turns out that Xinghe had already foreseen everything. In this battle, Xinghe deserves the greatest credit!

Mu Xiaoqi bounced down from the arena and gave Chu Xinghe, who had a calm expression, a big bear hug.

"Senior Brother Xinghe, I didn't let you down, did I?"

That's too much... I, Chu Xinghe, am not disappointed at all. I have to thank you Mu Xiaoqi generations!

Do you think I'd let you go on stage to instantly kill anyone? Letting you go up there would be embarrassing! Don't you understand what a bad start is...? What the hell are you doing?

"Xiaoqi! You're amazing!"

"Xiaoqi, I never imagined you'd become so strong!"

A group of older brothers and sisters from the Muyue Kingdom also came up to praise Xiaoqi.

"Thank you, senior brothers and sisters. But it's not that I'm so great, it's just that the guy over there was too weak... He flew away before I even exerted any strength..."

Chu Xinghe's tears fell!

You haven't even used your strength yet, and you've already applied it to my face!

Gu Mingchao's face beamed with joy as he looked at Cheng Xiaotian, whose face was as black as the bottom of a pot but Cheng Xiaotian still managed to smile. He felt as if he were seeing himself after the first competition last year.

"Brother Xiaotian... what a stroke of luck!"

Cheng Xiaotian: "..."

Zheng Yu helped Shen Hui, who was still vomiting blood, to his feet and stood there stunned for a full minute.

He had considered that Shen Hui might lose, but he never expected that Shen Hui would lose in such a humiliating way.

I underestimated Senior Brother Xinghe!

His mindset was still stuck in the methods he used to deal with the Muyue Kingdom in the past, but he forgot that the current Muyue Kingdom was trained by Senior Brother Xinghe!

How could it possibly be compared to the former Muyue Kingdom?

Seeing Shen Hui's utterly dejected expression, Zheng Yu had no time to offer comfort, as there was still a second match to come.

"Yue Cheng, be extremely careful in this second match, you absolutely cannot lose!"

Zheng Yu solemnly instructed Yue Cheng beside him.

"Senior Brother Zheng Yu, rest assured, Jin Kemu, what I cultivate is the Golden Radiance Battle Intent of our Martial Emperor City, which is supremely powerful against the Mu Muyue Kingdom! There is absolutely no possibility of defeat!"

Hearing Yue Cheng's words, Zheng Yu nodded slightly.

Not bad... Jin Keming! This hand is in the bag!

On the Muyue Kingdom's side, Chu Xinghe pointed at Mu Xiaoqi but couldn't utter a single word for a long time.

Finally, his gaze fell on Mu Heng, who was standing next to Mu Bai.

"Mu Heng, step forward!"

"Senior Brother Xinghe!" Mu Heng exclaimed excitedly when he was called out, while the others looked disappointed.

Why didn't Senior Brother Xinghe choose me...? I want to go up and fight too!

"Mu Heng, you'll be in charge of this second battle, but I have a few words to tell you."

"I dare not disobey Mu Heng Senior Brother Xinghe's orders."

"Alright! Mu Heng, as you know, although this martial arts competition concerns the reputation of the Vast Heaven Sect, the Martial Emperor City has come from afar. If we lose all three battles, wouldn't it make us look like the Vast Heaven Sect doesn't know how to treat guests? So for this second battle... I want you to hold back and let the opponent win one."

"Ah?"

The three hundred disciples from the Muyue Kingdom were dumbfounded.

But thinking about it carefully, Senior Brother Xinghe is right.

Judging from Shen Hui's pathetic state just now, he's practically guaranteed to win this martial arts competition.

The people from Martial Emperor City have come from afar; if they suffer three defeats, how can they save face?

When Senior Brother Xinghe got into trouble last year, Martial Emperor City issued Martial Emperor Token to help. Although the incident was caused by Zheng Yu, Martial Emperor City did its best.

With such a good relationship between the Vast Heaven Sect and Martial Emperor City, if they were to shave each other's heads, wouldn't Martial Emperor City lose all face?

So, Senior Brother Xinghe really did consider everything comprehensively. We were only thinking about how to win, but Senior Brother Xinghe not only thought about how to win, he even thought about how to win in a more elegant way.

Mu Heng nodded solemnly. "Senior Brother Xinghe, please rest assured, I will only use 50% of my combat power!"

"Fine! I'm sorry you had to go through this!" Chu Xinghe, tears welling in his eyes.

What a great junior brother! He acted as soon as he was told to. For that alone, I'll forgive you for what your Muyue Kingdom did before.

Mu Heng stepped onto the arena carrying out his Senior Brother Xinghe's instructions.

The First Elder looked at Mu Heng, whose face was grave, and was slightly puzzled. Mu Heng was far more outstanding than Mu Xiaoqi, so why did he look weaker than Mu Xiaoqi when he came up?

But now is definitely not the time to ask.

Because the second round of the competition has already begun.

A flash of golden light appeared in Yue Cheng's hand, and a huge golden battle axe appeared in his grasp.

Enveloped in golden light, Yue Cheng instantly entered berserk mode, transforming into a berserker.

Mu Heng's spiritual weapon is a long spear. With the spear in hand, Mu Heng suppressed his cultivation to less than 50%.

Yue Cheng, wielding a golden battle axe, transformed into a berserker and charged directly in front of Mu Heng, the battle axe continuously falling with golden light.

Seeing Yue Cheng taking the initiative, Zheng Yu revealed a satisfied expression.

Chu Xinghe was even more satisfied!

Just when both sides were extremely happy and satisfied, a burst of fire suddenly exploded on the arena!

Suddenly, the red spear in Mu Heng's hand burst into flames, engulfing Mu Heng's entire body!

The Sun-Illuminating Heart Sutra!

Although Mu Heng also cultivates both metal and fire, those familiar with Mu Heng know that Mu Heng enjoys alchemy. Originally Mu Heng, whose Great Expansion Heavenly Metal Art was stronger, has made rapid progress in his Mu Heng Sun-Illuminating Heart Sutra these past few days because Senior Brother Xinghe arranged for him to focus on alchemy instead of cultivation.

The spiritual weapon Mu Heng obtained in the Spirit Tomb was a fire-type spear. Now, with the Sun-Illuminating Heart Sutra combined with the fire-type spear, Mu Heng was instantly enraged!

Jin Keming is right!

But the Muyue Kingdom cultivates both metal and fire!

Fire also overcomes metal!

Just as Yue Cheng charged in front of Mu Heng, the flames from Mu Heng's spear shattered the golden light of his battle axe. Then, flames erupted from Mu Heng's hand, and terrifying flames instantly swept across the entire area. Yue Cheng's Golden Radiance Battle Intent was completely countered by the Sun-Illuminating Heart Sutra.

Flames exploded, Yue Cheng was sent flying backward, spitting blood as he fell off the stage...

Mu Heng: "???"

I only used half my strength... How come the people of Martial Emperor City are so weak!

No! Senior Brother Xinghe specifically told me I couldn't win... I... I think I did something wrong!

But Senior Brother Xinghe, this round really wasn't my fault... I only used half my strength from start to finish, it was mainly because the opponents were too weak... I really had a tough time...

Yue Cheng was sent flying off the stage, completely dumbfounded... What happened to Jin Kemu?

Why is it that you, a guy from the Muyue Kingdom, are more skilled in fire-based techniques? Is there any justice in this world?

What happened to my promise to turn the tables?

Yue Cheng spat out a mouthful of blood, his anger reaching a point where he even laughed self-deprecatingly.

Then an incredibly bizarre scene unfolded.

Below the arena, Yue Cheng, who had been knocked away, was spitting blood while laughing wildly.

On the stage, Mu Heng, who had sent his opponent flying, had a long face and tears were about to fall.

If you hadn't witnessed the competition with your own eyes, you wouldn't be able to tell who the winner and loser were just by looking at the footage...
