When the martial artists below the stage saw that Jiang Liu had snatched one of the small stone pillars, they immediately became anxious, and soon two of them flew onto the stage.
It was a disciple of the Flowing Cloud Sect and Wang Bochuan. As soon as they stepped onto the arena, they immediately launched an attack. Wang Bochuan used a sword technique, while the Flowing Cloud Sect disciple used a fist technique. The two fought back and forth with swords and fists for about half an hour, but in the end, Wang Bochuan was outmatched.
As soon as Wang Bochuan stepped off the stage, three people flew towards it: a disciple of the Flowing Cloud Sect, a disciple of the Star Moon Sect, and a disciple of the Haotian Sect who was a step slower. They were immediately bounced back by the light screen.
After a fierce battle, only the disciples of the Star Moon Sect remained on the stage, while the disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect were bounced back off the stage.
A Jiang Liu figure flew onto the arena. It was Li Qiaoyun, the Haotian Sect disciple who hadn't rushed ahead earlier.
The two stood on the platform, Li Qiaoyun launched the first attack. She drew her long sword and casually slashed, sending a gust of energy directly towards the Haotian Sect disciple.
The Haotian Sect disciple dodged, stepped forward, and swung his fist at Li Qiaoyun.
Immediately, the two on the stage began to fight, exchanging blows with their fists and swords. Not long after, a scream came from the stage, and the left hand of the Haotian Sect disciple fell off the stage.
Then, the light screen flicked, ejecting the Haotian Sect disciple and his severed hand from the arena. Li Qiaoyun then climbed onto the fourth small stone pillar.
The other Haotian Sect disciples below the stage glared at Li Qiaoyun with hatred.
Soon after, the fifth stone pillar was taken by a disciple of the Star Moon Sect, the sixth stone pillar was snatched by a disciple of the Haotian Sect, and not long after, the seventh stone pillar was taken by the Buddha.
When the Buddha snatched the stone pillar, he knocked the disciple of the Flowing Cloud Sect off the stage with just one punch, which caught Jiang Liu's attention.
The fight for the eighth stone pillar was fierce, with Li Qi of the Li Family and disciples of the Star Moon Sect vying for it. Both sides were badly injured, but in the end, Li Qi stood up, while the Star Moon Sect disciple was thrown off the stage.
Chen Yuke of the Heaven One Sect and Zheng Yunxiu of the Zheng Family both stepped onto the arena to compete for the ninth stone pillar. Both were skilled swordsmen and fought to the point of mutual injury. In the end, Chen Yuke, with his superior skill, emerged victorious.
When vying for the tenth stone pillar, four people flew onto the arena at the same time, but in the end, Mad Blade and a disciple of the Flowing Cloud Sect were one step ahead.
Jiang Liu looked at Mad Blade and the Flowing Cloud Sect disciple on the arena and found it hilarious. It was a perfect version of Beauty and the Beast!
The enormous Mad Blade drew his greatsword and slashed wildly at the petite Flowing Cloud Sect disciple, who used her agile movements to dodge, occasionally launching a single sword strike at Mad Blade.
The two fought for almost half an hour, but Mad Blade didn't manage to launch a single effective attack. Instead, several attacks from the Flowing Cloud Sect disciples left him covered in blood.
Sure enough, the two fought for a short time before Mad Blade voluntarily conceded defeat and jumped off the stage. The Flowing Cloud Sect disciple glanced at Mad Blade with disdain and then climbed the tenth stone pillar.
In the end, Yi Tian, dressed as a scholar, and a Star Moon Sect disciple dressed as a martial artist remained, and could only sigh as they watched the light screen.
After all ten small stone pillars were occupied, the light screen on the arena began to merge with the light screen on the ten small stone pillars.
Then a brocade box suddenly appeared on top of the huge stone pillar. This must be the Mystic Treasure. Everyone stared at the brocade box with burning eyes.
Suddenly, the Flowing Cloud Sect disciple on the second stone pillar launched an attack on the Star Moon Sect disciple on the third stone pillar, and the two immediately began to fight inside the light barrier.
The Buddha then threw a punch directly at the Haotian Sect disciple next to him. The Haotian Sect disciple dodged to the side and began to retaliate.
Li Qiaoyun drew her longsword and slashed at Chen Yuke, probably because she saw that Chen Yuke had been fighting for so long and wanted to see if she could gain some advantage.
Li Qi then targeted a disciple of the Star Moon Sect, slashing out with his sword Illusory Transformation create multicolored clouds, which he then attacked directly at the Star Moon Sect. The Star Moon Sect drew his broadsword and cleaved the clouds in two.
Jiang Liu leaped into the air, Eight Steps of Trampling in quick succession. At the same time, he drew his broadsword and slashed at the last disciple of the Flowing Cloud Sect. The disciple, seeing that another one was using a sword, wore a contemptuous smile and looked at Jiang Liu indifferently.
Just as Jiang Liu's broadsword was about to strike, she drew her longsword to prepare for a counterattack. However, she soon found herself unable to move. Then, Jiang Liu changed his move and swept her off the stage with his broadsword.
The Flowing Cloud Sect disciple was still glaring at Jiang Liu with resentment after leaving the arena. Judging from her clenched teeth, she probably wished she could bite Jiang Liu a few times to vent her anger.
Jiang Liu ignored her, his eyes fixed on the other four teams battling on the field, pondering whether to go up and finish them off sooner or wait to reap the benefits.
Jiang Liu finally decided to wait for them to decide the winner, and flew back to the small stone pillar to wait.
The first to determine the winner was the Buddha's team. The Buddha chanted Buddha mantras and threw a punch, Illusory Transformation a phantom of Demon Subduing Vajra, directly striking the Haotian Sect disciple.
The Haotian Sect disciple had no choice but to take the punch head-on. He pushed out with both palms and screamed in agony as his body was thrown backward and he flew off the stage. His hands were broken.
After knocking the Haotian Sect disciple off the stage, the Buddha did not go up to the small stone pillar to wait, but instead continued to throw a punch at the Flowing Cloud Sect disciple and Star Moon Sect disciple who were fighting on the side.
The disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect were completely stunned by the blast. They had been secretly plotting to stall for time and see if they could hold out until the very end.
They encountered a Buddha who didn't play by the rules, and after winning, he went to bother them. Left with no other choice, they had to unite and fight the Buddha together.
The three immediately engaged in fierce combat, with the Buddha fighting bare-handed against the two disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect and the Star Moon Sect who were armed.
Li Qiaoyun and Chen Yuke quickly decided the winner. After all, Chen Yuke had been exhausted from her previous match, so Li Qiaoyun had the upper hand and quickly swept Li Qiaoyun off the stage.
Li Qi and the Star Moon Sect disciple fought a fierce battle. It seemed that Li Qi was destined to clash with the Star Moon Sect, always encountering their disciples. Unfortunately, he wasn't so lucky this time.
It was obvious that the Star Moon Sect disciple was more skilled. Taking advantage of Li Qi's exhaustion, he swept his broadsword across the arena and knocked Li Qi off the stage.
Jiang Liu glanced at Li Qiaoyun, then leaped into the air and threw a punch at the Star Moon Sect disciple. Before the Star Moon Sect disciple could recover from the joy of victory, he was blasted off the stage.
Meanwhile, the battle on Buddha's side also came to a conclusion, with the disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect and Star Moon Sect joining forces to force Buddha out of the arena.
In an instant, Jiang Liu, Li Qiaoyun, disciples of the Star Moon Sect, and disciples of the Flowing Cloud Sect remained on the arena.
