Yunzhou Martial Arts Tournament, Part Three

"Miss, Miss, look how amazing the young master is! He kicked Ye Tianhao down with just one kick!" Cuier said Murong Yin.

"Alright, I can see!" Murong Yin stretched out his hand and twisted Cuier's ear, saying.

"Hmph! I'm ignoring you! You keep twisting my ear!" Cuier turned around, pretending to be angry.

Murong Yin ignored her and just looked at Jiang Liu on the stage. She felt that Jiang Liu was so handsome and extraordinary. At this moment, she truly felt that Jiang Liu was the husband she had been looking for.

"Look over there, Liu Tianxing and Duo Yi are about to decide the winner."

Everyone looked toward the arena where Liu Tianxing and Duo Yi were fighting.

At this moment, both Liu Tianxing and Duo Yi were in a sorry state.

On the stage, both men exuded energy. Liu Tianxing had a trickle of blood at the corner of his mouth, while Duo Yi's left hand was bent backward in an arc. Both of them stood on the stage with their hair disheveled, slightly panting.

It seems that both of them were really fighting, and they were evenly matched, as evidenced by the fact that both of them had sustained serious injuries.

Duo Yi held a strange weapon in his right hand, which resembled a sword but was not quite a sword. The blade was curved, and there were two outward-pointing handles on the hilt. The purpose of these handles was unknown, and the blade was pointing at Liu Tianxing.

Liu Tianxing held the Liu Family's signature weapon, the Judge's Brush, in both hands. However, his Judge's Brush was a little different from the ordinary one; the one in his right hand was longer, and the one in his left hand was shorter.

Neither of them spoke, and they raised their weapons and began to fight again.

Liu Tianxing extended his Judge's Brush in his right hand, and a phantom of primordial energy attacked Duo Yi directly. Duo Yi dodged it and raised the strange weapon in his hand to chop at Liu Tianxing's face.

Liu Tianxing stepped forward, blocking with his left hand using the Judge's Brush, while simultaneously unleashing a burst of energy from his right hand towards Duo Yi.

Just as Liu Tianxing's attack was about to reach Duo Yi suddenly raised his bent left arm and struck the judge's right pen, which was attacking from the front.

"Bang!" "Bang!" The four streams of energy collided!

Just when everyone thought it would be another evenly matched contest, suddenly the two handles of the strange weapon in Duo Yi's hand detached and flew towards Liu Tianxing's face.

Liu Tianxing was caught off guard and was struck in the face by two flying handles.

"Ah!" Liu Tianxing immediately screamed and fell backward.

Duo Yi stepped forward and swung his strange weapon upwards, cleaving Liu Tianxing in two.

"Ah!" The audience below the stage was shocked. This was the first casualty in the Martial Arts Tournament, and it was a young genius from the Liu Family, Rank 9 Martial Practitioner.

The Liu Family must be furious now. Losing such a genius must be heartbreaking. They didn't even send a grandmaster to watch the competition, which shows they thought getting a spot was a sure thing, but they never expected such an unexpected result.

The Liu Family members watching from below the stage immediately roared angrily, "Duo Yi, how dare you use such a vicious method? Aren't you afraid of bringing disaster upon your Lotus Sect?"

Duo Yi ignored the clamor from below the stage and quickly sat down to regulate his breathing. He was also feeling unwell. He had fought until he was injured, and then forcibly reattached his left hand to exchange a blow with Liu Tianxing, which gave him an opportunity. Otherwise, he would have been the one to die.

The Liu Family had no choice but to carry Liu Tianxing's body, which had been split in two, back to report in a hurry.

Jiang Liu glanced at it indifferently and then ignored it. Isn't it normal for people to die on the stage? What's the big deal? If you're afraid of dying, don't come out. It's much more comfortable at home.

The Minor Grandmaster on the Duo Yi arena merely glanced at Duo Yi, said nothing, and simply stood there.

The battles in the other arenas continued. The arena guarded by Xiahou Yi had the most people, and no one knew what they were thinking. They were all trying their best to show off. Xiahou Yi didn't use any harsh moves. Everyone who went up was just knocked off the arena.

Many people went up to the arena guarded by He Wentian, probably influenced by previous rumors. He Wentian had only just been promoted to the ninth rank and his realm was not yet stable, so they wanted to see if there was any easy money to be had.

They were disappointed, as everyone who went up had to get injured and be knocked off the stage.

As for those who suffered the most, they were the ones who went up to the Blade Fiend Kuang. Every one of them who went up was either left with broken arms or legs, or was so badly injured that they were kicked off the ring.

After only a few people went up, no one dared to challenge Blade Fiend Kuangshou's arena anymore.

On the arena guarded by Han Kesong easily dealt with the Eighth Rank Martial Practitioner opposite him. This Eighth Rank Martial Practitioner came from a local force and had been granted a recommendation because a Minor Grandmaster was present.

Han Kesong suddenly lunged forward and slapped his palm towards the Eighth Rank Martial Practitioner. The Eighth Rank Martial Practitioner screamed and flew off the stage.

Han Kesong stood on the stage, hands behind his back, ready to receive cheers from the audience, but no one paid him any attention. Everyone was watching Xiahou Yi fight someone else, and he was immediately annoyed.

But before he could finish being angry, someone else came up to challenge him, so he had to put his mind at ease and continue to deal with it.

Ji Feng, who was guarding the arena, didn't care about anything else. As soon as he appeared at the edge of the arena, he attacked and knocked the person off.

Zheng Hanwei waited for everyone to stand in line and bow before launching a surprise attack, knocking the man down.

Li Wenyuan smiled, but he showed no mercy. Anyone who challenged him was either seriously injured and fell to the ground, or had their hands or feet broken.

Those who went up to challenge Jiang Liu found it much easier. After the man finished bowing, Jiang Liu simply waved his hand and knocked him down.

At first, some people went up to challenge Duo Yi, hoping to take advantage of the situation. However, after several of them were killed by Duo Yi, gradually no one went up to challenge him anymore.

As time went by, fewer and fewer people stepped into the ring to challenge the other fighters.

The first was Zheng Hanwei successfully defended his title. The second was Ji Feng.

The third one is Wang Yisheng. The fourth one is Li Wenyuan.

The fifth is Blade Fiend. The sixth is He Wentian.

The seventh is Jiang Liu. The eighth is Duo Yi.

The ninth is Han Kesong, who also wants to successfully defend his title as soon as possible, but he is the second most challenged.

As for the last one, it was Xiahou Yi. She was so slow, it was as if she was watching a performance, waiting for the opponent to finish using all his martial arts before knocking him down.

The ten spots for Yunzhou to participate in the Martial Arts Tournament have now been decided.

Bo Ye stood up, looked at the sky, and said loudly, "That's enough for today, we'll continue tomorrow!" After saying that, he turned around, nodded to the other nine Grandmaster, and then took the lead in getting up and flying away.

The other nine Grandmaster exchanged glances and then flew away as well.

Before leaving, the Old Ancestor of the Feng Family glanced at Jiang Liu.

Jiang Liu nodded to the Feng Family Old Ancestor without saying anything.

The people on the stage also left.

Finally, the people around the arena dispersed in twos and threes.

The news of the competition that day swept through the city like a storm, and then spread to other counties.

The most discussed topic was the death of Liu Tianxing from the Liu Family. Many people felt sorry for him, but what could be done? After all, there was a prior agreement before he went into the ring.

Other factions that lost their descendants also wept bitterly, blaming themselves for their lack of strength and for not admitting defeat sooner.

Jiang Liu had no time to care about them; he was just wondering what the Feng Family Old Ancestor meant in the end.

Seeing that Jiang Liu seemed absent-minded, Murong Yin quickly tugged at him. Jiang Liu nodded without saying anything and headed into the city with Murong Yin and Cuier.
