Bai Zhan's Collapse
Long Ziyan nodded and stepped onto the arena.
Upon seeing this unfamiliar face, Bai Zhan was taken aback. Who was she? Yet another face he had never seen before.
At this point, he no longer thought that the nameless were weak; he had sensed that something was amiss.
"Something's not right! Why are all the geniuses from the Long Family unfamiliar faces? This isn't normal. Look behind Long Yuanshan, half of the geniuses are people we don't recognize."
The elder of the Bai Clan clan looked behind Long Yuanshan, his expression turning solemn.
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhan also looked behind Long Yuanshan. Seeing that half of the geniuses were unfamiliar faces, his heart skipped a beat, and he had already vaguely guessed what was going on.
Just then, the city lord shouted "Begin!" The next moment, Long Ziyan rushed towards her opponent at lightning speed. With a flash of sword light, Bai Jian's sword was cut in half, and he was sent flying by the sword, crashing heavily off the stage.
Looking at his abdomen, blood had seeped out, as if something had been dug out. Bai Jian clutched his wound and collapsed to the ground, howling in pain.
The Bai Clan's high-ranking members stood up again, their faces extremely grim. Another one had been crippled, and killed instantly at that. The clan's third-ranked genius was utterly powerless against this woman. They were utterly astonished.
"Who! Who are they? Where did these people come from?!"
"Damn it, this Long Yuanshan actually dares to play dirty tricks on me!"
Bai Zhan flew into a rage, instantly crushing the teacup in his hand and slamming his fist on the table, nearly going berserk with anger.
He could no longer sit still; he quickly stood up, his eyes blazing with fury.
If he still couldn't guess that the Long Family had brought in outside help by now, he would be truly stupid. Those geniuses who appeared out of nowhere definitely didn't come from the Western Land Long Family.
He was furious. He never expected the Long Family to pull such a stunt on him; it was utterly shameless.
Bai Jian was the third most talented genius in the Bai Clan family, and now he had been crippled. It hurt so much, it was heartbreaking. Losing two peerless geniuses in a row, his heart was bleeding.
"Damn it! The Long Family has no martial ethics whatsoever, hiring a bunch of geniuses from other races to deal with us. How despicable! I'm going to find the city lord to seek justice right now." The elder clan leader, his face ashen, was about to walk towards the city lord.
Bai Zhan said with a gloomy expression, "It's no use. The names of those strangers are in the City Lord's hands. Do you really think the City Lord can't tell that those geniuses aren't from the Long Family?"
"Just like us, since the Long Family dared to pull such a stunt, they're not afraid of us reporting them. They must have some excuse to cover it up."
"Even if the city lord knows the truth, he will choose to turn a blind eye as long as the Long Family can explain it."
"Since this would deplete the strength of both our races, why wouldn't he do it?"
Upon hearing this, the elder felt an urge to vomit blood.
They dared to use drugs during the martial arts competition because they exploited the city lord's psychology. Little did they expect that their own clan would also be controlled for the same reason.
"Damn it! If Bai Changfeng hadn't started this, this situation wouldn't have happened. We're in big trouble now! He's a sinner against our clan; the Bai Clan is going to be ruined by him!"
The patriarch sat weakly in the chair, his face instantly aging considerably.
In contrast to the gloomy mood of the Bai Clan, the Long Family clan was filled with laughter.
"Good! Well done! That sword thrust was absolutely beautiful, hahaha..."
Long Qian clapped wildly, his loud laughter grating on the ears of the Bai Clan Gu cultivators, who glared at him angrily.
Just then, the city lord's voice rang out again. "The Long Family wins the third match!"
"The fourth match will now begin, Long Dan versus Bai Youran. Both geniuses, enter the arena as soon as possible."
As soon as he finished speaking, Long Dan eagerly jumped onto the arena, looking at the Bai Clan family with a provocative gaze and a confident expression. He seemed to be very confident about his match.
The two matches just now saw the geniuses of the Far West Long Family cleanly and decisively finish their battles, making a great splash and igniting his competitive spirit. He also intends to put on a spectacular performance, so as not to diminish the reputation of the Western Land Long Family's genius.
Upon hearing these two names, Bai Zhan's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but clench his fists, his face turning extremely grim.
Bai Youran is the number one genius of the Bai Clan, with a talent that is rare in the clan. He is the successor to the next patriarch and also the last genius who did not take the Berserk Pill.
The city lord called out the names of three geniuses who hadn't taken the Berserk Pill; do you dare say he didn't do it on purpose?
He ruined the first two, and of all Bai Youran, Bai Youran had to be paired with the most troublesome Long Dan. Is this what you call random assignment? What a load of rubbish! He won't be satisfied until he's ruined all the geniuses of this generation of the Bai Clan.
Bai Zhan was panting heavily, his expression terrifyingly ferocious.
"Master! I have absolutely no chance of winning against him."
Bai Youran did not immediately step onto the arena. Standing beside Bai Zhan, she hesitated and said...
He had to admit that he was genuinely afraid at this moment. Judging from the current situation, no matter which of the two races stepped onto the arena, one of them would be crippled.
He was self-aware enough to know that his chances of defeating the monster with the innate Innate Gu were extremely slim. Faced with a choice between life and death, who wouldn't be afraid?
It's only natural that Bai Youran felt hesitant to fight.
Bai Zhan sighed heavily, saying helplessly, "You are the last genius of this generation that the Lineage can be proud of. If you are crippled, the Lineage's generation of geniuses will be completely cut off, and the consequences will be unimaginable."
"Let our clan preserve the last seed for this generation; you shouldn't go up there."
"This was my oversight; I acted too rashly, and as the head of the family, I cannot escape blame for these consequences."
At this moment, Bai Zhan's face also aged considerably. This time, the Bai Clan suffered a truly devastating loss; this generation of geniuses was practically extinct.
Despite paying such a high price, they haven't achieved the expected returns. Judging from the current situation, the Long Family has resorted to shameless tactics, hiring a bunch of ridiculously powerful foreign geniuses. Even if their own geniuses are on drugs, they won't be able to take over all the mines. In this way, the sacrifice of the clan's geniuses is meaningless.
We concede this round!
Bai Zhan ultimately lacked the courage to fight this match, and to prevent the entire generation of geniuses from perishing prematurely, he chose to concede defeat.
Upon hearing his surrender, Long Dan nearly choked on his breath. The fighting spirit he had just mustered vanished instantly. After cursing him as a coward, he helplessly stepped off the stage.
The other family heads also showed expressions of regret. They were just one last person short. If this last genius was ruined by the Long Dan, then the Bai Clan would completely lose its generation of geniuses. It was truly a pity.
Bai Zhan finally breathed a sigh of relief, his expression suddenly changing. He turned to the group of geniuses behind him and said fiercely, "In the upcoming battles, fight them to the death! Even if it means mutual destruction, cripple all the geniuses of the Long Family!"
At this point, the three geniuses who hadn't consumed the Berserk Pill had already finished their battles; the remaining geniuses were those who had consumed the Berserk Pill and were crippled.
He no longer had any scruples. Replacing the crippled genius with any other Long Family genius would be a win-win situation. All he had to do next was kill! Undisguised killing intent shone in Bai Zhan's eyes.
Seeing that Bai Zhan dared not gamble with his last remaining member, the city lord's expression of regret flashed by, then he said in a deep voice, "The Bai Clan concedes defeat in the fourth match; the Long Family wins."
"Match 5: Bai Xue vs. Long Bao."
After saying that, Bai Xue and Long Bao walked towards the arena together.
The cheers of encouragement from the Long Family team below put pressure on Long Bao.
After the city lord shouted "Begin!", Bai Xue rushed towards Long Bao with a crazed look in her eyes, clearly ready to fight to the death.
Once a person chooses to fight desperately, their combat power will increase by three points out of thin air, which greatly troubles Long Bao.
After a few moves, Long Bao realized he was no match for the drug-addicted woman, so he quickly fell to the ground and rolled off the ring with practiced ease.
Just kidding, he was an outside helper invited here, why would he risk his life for this fight? So when he saw things were going badly, he decisively chose to admit defeat, not giving that drug-addicted woman a chance to make a move, he was very cunning.
Bai Xue glared at him fiercely before reluctantly stepping off the stage. Her opponent had slipped away too quickly, giving her no chance whatsoever, leaving her extremely frustrated.
Despite winning a victory, she showed no joy on her face. The Bai Clan's Gu cultivators also had gloomy faces, showing no joy at their victory. Bai Zhan looked as uncomfortable as if he had swallowed a fly.
The following battles saw both sides win and lose, but Long Yuanshan was clearly not a reckless person. If his own talent gained the upper hand, then everything would be fine.
If his own genius was no match for the Bai Clan's genius, he would immediately raise his hand and decisively admit defeat, giving the Bai Clan no chance to use their full strength.
Only he could personally announce the surrender, otherwise he feared that his genius would be too proud to admit defeat and would be beaten to death, leading to a tragedy for Long Yun. Therefore, as the head of the family, he had no choice but to force them to come down.
As for the geniuses from the Far West Long Family, he didn't need to worry about them. They all cherished their lives and cared more about their own survival than anyone else.
Following Long Bao, Long Yan also surrendered after only one move with his opponent, then quickly jumped off the stage and ran faster than a rabbit.
As for Long Qilin, he is far stronger than Long Bao and Long Yan at the same level. Even when the Bai Clan genius was on drugs, he was still able to fight back and forth.
Finally, he used the Ascending Dragon Gu, suddenly transforming from the Late Marrow-Cleansing Stage to the Marrow Cleansing Peak, catching his opponent off guard. Relying on his superior cultivation level, Long Qilin easily crippled his opponent and then calmly walked off the stage.
All the Bai Clan Gu cultivators were so frustrated they were spitting blood. They had crippled a large number of geniuses, while the Long Family had only crippled one genius so far. How could they feel good about it? They were extremely resentful.
