Gu Sheng didn't take it seriously. He activated Primordial Saint Body, and the golden light flowed from his body, like a golden god of war.
"Boom~"
He smiled slightly, and the golden fist shadow instantly came out. It seemed that Gu Sheng had the upper hand.
Lin Tianhao did not give up. He tried his best to resist Gu Sheng's attack while looking for opportunities to counterattack.
"Bang~"
In a fierce confrontation, Lin Tianhao successfully reversed the situation of the battle. His sword energy reached Gu Sheng's vitals.
Just when everyone thought Lin Tianhao was about to win, Gu Sheng's body once again bloomed with bright golden light.
He took a deep breath, and his golden palm appeared instantly, suppressing it with unparalleled power.
"Great Vajra Palm, decide the world!"
Gu Sheng roared angrily, and his golden palm hit Lin Tianhao like the earth was shattering.
Lin Tianhao tried his best to resist, but still couldn't resist this powerful attack.
With a loud noise, he was knocked out by Gu Sheng's golden palm and fell heavily to the ground.
There was silence in the competition arena, everyone was shocked by the strength of Gu Sheng.
But Gu Sheng did not get carried away. He walked over and helped Lin Tianhao up. The two looked at each other, smiled, and shook hands.
"Gu Sheng, you are really strong, I lost." Lin Tianhao said with a wry smile.
"Tianhao, you are amazing too. Let's fight again next time!" Gu Sheng responded with a smile.
The interaction between the two surprised everyone present, but most of them admired their strength and style.
The female disciples were even more infatuated with Gu Sheng. Princess Zishuang's eyes were shining, and she secretly vowed to interact with Gu Sheng more.
As a friend of Gu Sheng, Linghu Qingwan has long regarded Gu Sheng as one of his own, and even blessed her loudly. "Gu Sheng, you really didn't disappoint me, that's great!"
Mu Yuanyuan, Mu Tiantian, Lin Miaomiao and other female disciples also secretly cast glances at Gu Sheng, expressing their admiration.
"Such an outstanding man is worthy of being met by outstanding women!" Mu Tiantian saw the thoughts of the women and uttered a wisecrack.
"Kekeke..."
The wisecracks made the girls sing happily.
The martial arts tournament came to an end with the pinnacle showdown between Lin Tianhao and Gu Sheng.
The emperor personally presented the awards to the top eight.
The eighth place, Haoyang Sect Lin Qingyu, has a spiritual stone and twenty thousand taels of gold.
Lin Qingyu is the sister of Lin Tianhao and the daughter of Lin Zhenghao. She is not short of winning 20,000 taels of gold, but who thinks she has too much money?
"Keep working hard!" Emperor Yun Wu personally handed over the shiny spiritual stones and gold to Lin Qingyu.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Third place, Thousand Poisons Sect Peng Mandrill, four spiritual stones and two hundred thousand taels of gold."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Second place, Haoyang Sect Lin Tianhao, six spiritual stones, five hundred thousand taels of gold, and the title of Marquis Gaoyang."
"First place, Saint Pill Sect Gu Sheng, ten spiritual stones, knighted Marquis of Victory."
The two thanked His Majesty without being overly complacent.
For Lin Tianhao, compared to the more than two thousand spiritual stones brought back from the Red Cloud Secret Realm, these six spiritual stones are not in his eyes at all. Five hundred thousand taels of gold may still be of some use.
As for Gao Yanghou, it is purely a false name and is dispensable.
Of course, there is still some use. You can get discounts when entering some royal places, you will be more respected, and your status in the family will be greatly improved.
For Gu Sheng, spiritual stones are somewhat useful, gold is very useful, Marquis of Victory, this is a vest, it may be of great use in the future.
In addition to the authorities, ordinary people, young masters and young ladies from aristocratic families must be envious.
After the tournament, the sky gradually darkened and the palace square was brightly lit, but it was still difficult to hide the excitement and discussion in everyone's hearts.
Mad Saber Sect's disciple Li Xuandao, holding a heavy sword, his eyes flashing with envy. "Humph, Lin Tianhao and Gu Sheng are really among the best. When will we be able to be so beautiful?"
Great Sword Sect's Zhang Jian frowned, but he couldn't help but praise, "Gu Sheng is number one in swordsmanship. He is truly unparalleled in the world. Marquis of Victory is well-deserved."
Thousand Poisons Sect's disciple Peng Zhu, although he won third place, was a little unwilling. "Lin Tianhao, Gu Sheng, just wait, one day I will surpass you!"
The young master of the Governor's Mansion, Zhan Ruotian, had a deep gaze and seemed to be thinking about something, "Marquis Gao Yang, Marquis of Victory, this is not only an honor, but also a symbol of power and status. I wonder when I, Governor's Mansion, will be able to produce such a character."
The disciples of the Haoyang Sect cheered, especially the young disciples. Looking at the figure of Lin Tianhao, their eyes were full of admiration. "Brother Tianhao, you are really the light of my Haoyang Sect!"
The disciples of the Saint Pill Sect are very proud. They know that Gu Sheng's achievements are not only his personal glory, but also the glory of the Saint Pill Sect.
The disciples of the Qian Family whispered, "Look at this Lin Tianhao, even the spiritual stone is not looked down upon. We really don't understand the world of rich people."
The ladies of the Mu Family had stars in their eyes, and seemed to have been fascinated by the charm of Lin Tianhao and Gu Sheng: "How happy it would be to marry such a hero."
The disciples Zhou Family and Wu Family looked at each other and secretly rejoiced. "Fortunately, we didn't participate in this competition, otherwise wouldn't we be embarrassed?"
The square was filled with people and discussions. Everyone was amazed, envious, and longing for the outcome of this martial arts competition. In the midst of these discussions, the figures of Lin Tianhao and Gu Sheng seem to have transcended mortals and become legends that everyone looks up to.
Amidst the laughter, there are some discordant sounds.
"Wait and see, Gu Sheng is just a brat from a small sect, he can't even run around for a few days!"
An old man with a sour face and skin as dry as tree bark spoke coldly, with a fierce look in his eyes.
This person is Elder Fengxing of the Thousand Poisons Sect, and he is under the orders of elder Wu Gui.
In the following days, Gu Sheng no longer stayed in the Saint Pill Sect, but often went out to practice.
Especially duel with monsters, you can get good fighting instincts and awareness, and the corpses of monsters can be used to exchange for money.
Demon Fox Mountain.
During this period of time, Gu Sheng has often gone here to practice and capture various monsters, and today he made a lot of gains.
He wanted to prepare for life and have a delicious barbecue.
In the sky not far away, the wind was surging, and Gu Sheng felt a powerful aura approaching.
He was running Great Moon Eye Technique, his eyes were like Cold Star, staring at the approaching black shadow in the distance.
The recent battles between monsters and monsters have made him more courageous. Most importantly, he now has Vajra Demon Suppressing Bell and Demon Suppressing Golden Scroll. These two treasures can protect him to some extent.
The black shadow gradually approached, revealing the skinny figure of Elder Fengxing, and the soul-suppressing bamboo staff in his hand emitted a cold light.
A fierce look flashed in his eyes, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Gu Sheng kid, today is the day you die!"
Elder Fengxing's voice was sharp, like the cry of Ye Xiao, echoing through the mountains and forests.
Gu Sheng had long recognized Elder Fengxing from the Thousand Poisons Sect. He sneered and didn't take it seriously, "Fengxing old dog, you Thousand Poisons Sect are just some robbers, how dare you speak nonsense here?"
Elder Fengxing's face darkened and he shouted angrily:
"You're rude! I, Thousand Poisons Sect, have a great reputation, how can I allow you to kill me!"
Gu Sheng's body moved, and Gale Nine Swords took action instantly. The sword light flashed and struck Elder Fengxing like a gust of wind.
Elder Fengxing sneered, waved the soul-suppressing bamboo staff, and launched the soul attack instantly.
Gu Sheng felt dizzy for a while, as if there were countless insects and ants crawling in his mind.
He was secretly shocked, but not at all confused. Shadow Concealment Art quietly activated, and his figure instantly disappeared from Elder Fengxing's sight.
Elder Fengxing's expression changed and he looked around, but Gu Sheng was nowhere to be seen.
There was an uneasiness in his heart, but he still relied on his advanced cultivation and dismissed it.
At this moment, Gu Sheng's figure suddenly appeared behind him, Primordial Saint Body urged, and the golden fist shadow hit Elder Fengxing like a mountain.
Elder Fengxing was shocked and wanted to escape but it was too late.
Just a scream was heard, half of his body was exploded by a punch, and blood splattered everywhere.
"This... how is this possible!" Elder Fengxing looked horrified, unable to believe what he was seeing.
Gu Sheng sneered and said mockingly, "Fengxing old dog, your Thousand Poisons Sect reputation is nothing more than that. Today I will let you see what true strength is!"
He moved and attacked Elder Fengxing again.
Elder Fengxing looked pale and wanted to fight back but was unable to do so.
At this moment, the disciples from various sects who were watching the battle secretly shouted out in surprise.
They originally thought that Gu Sheng would kill Elder Fengxing in one fell swoop, but they did not expect that Elder Fengxing's physical body would recover at an extremely fast speed.
Elder Fengxing snorted coldly and launched the soul attack again.
Gu Sheng felt a trance, as if he was in chaos.
At this moment, Vajra Demon Suppressing Bell was activated, the golden bell runes circulated, and the golden light flourished.
The swastika symbol emerged, forming a solid protective cover to firmly protect Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng gradually woke up under the influence of the golden runes. He activated Great Prajna Sutra, and the golden energy quickly flowed throughout his body.
A trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he moved towards Elder Fengxing.
Elder Fengxing's complexion changed drastically. He felt the powerful aura exuding from Gu Sheng, and a strong fear surged in his heart.
He tried to escape, but it was too late.
"Boom!"
Gu Sheng clapped out his golden palm and punched half of Elder Fengxing's body to pieces again.
Elder Fengxing screamed and turned into a stream of light and fled hastily.
Gu Sheng looked at the direction in which Elder Fengxing was escaping, with a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes. He did not pursue him because he knew very well that he could not catch up at his speed.
"Fengxing Ascension Steps!"
Gu Sheng is more interested in Elder Fengxing's secret method of escape than Elder Fengxing's life.
In a fight with a strong person, you can still run away if you can't beat him. This is a life-saving thing.
"The one who escaped was actually Elder Fengxing"!
Thousand Poisons Sect A disciple is a bit unbelievable.
"They are quite different from each other!"
"Elder Fengxing is a master of the fifth level of the Marrow Refining Realm!"
The disciples from various sects who were secretly watching the battle were dumbfounded and amazed.
They didn't expect that Gu Sheng was so powerful that even Elder Fengxing was defeated by him.
"This guy's cultivation level is only Gold Bone Realm. How is it possible..."
Gu Sheng looked away, but his heart did not relax at all. He knows that Thousand Poisons Sect will not let him go easily. There is still a long way to go, and he must continue to work hard to improve his strength.
He felt that in the near future, he would definitely step onto the Thousand Poisons Sect and wipe out this sect with his own hands.
The wind in Yaohu Mountain seems to be even stronger. And Gu Sheng's figure became more determined and aloof in the wind.
One wave after another, Elder Fengxing was defeated. Gu Sheng was about to heat the pot when a dark energy attacked him again.
Zhao Honglie held Myriad Souls Banner, black mist shrouded, as if countless innocent souls were wailing in it.
His gloomy eyes were fixed on Gu Sheng, and a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"Gu Sheng, do you think you can compete with me with your meager cultivation? Today I will let you know what true despair is!"
Zhao Honglie's voice was cold and filled with a heart-stopping killing intent.
Last time, he lost to Gu Sheng and Lin Tianhao in the Red Cloud Secret Realm. He went back to practice in seclusion for several months. This time, his cultivation level improved greatly.
Zhao Honglie is full of confidence, not to mention that this time he is only dealing with Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng was a little surprised. He didn't expect to encounter Zhao Honglie here.
This guy has weird energy. If it were before, Gu Sheng would have run away, but now, he feels like he has what it takes to fight.
He moved and disappeared.
Zhao Honglie's complexion changed, Myriad Souls Banner waved, black mist surged, trying to lock Gu Sheng's aura.
Gu Sheng's Shadow Concealment Art has already reached the level of proficiency, and his figure is looming in the dark, making it difficult to fathom.
Zhao Honglie was furious, and he waved Myriad Souls Banner violently, and countless ghosts roared and rushed towards Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng moved his body and easily avoided the attacks of these ghosts.
"Zhao Honglie, your attacks are like tickling a child, how disappointing!" Gu Sheng mocked.
Provoking the other person is also a mental attack.
Zhao Honglie looked ferocious, he roared angrily, and the black mist in Myriad Souls Banner suddenly surged, turning into a huge black hand, grabbing hard at Gu Sheng.
A chill flashed in Gu Sheng's eyes. He urged Shadow Concealment Art, and in just a flash, he appeared behind Zhao Honglie.
He urged Primordial Saint Body, and a golden fist shadow emerged, punching Zhao Honglie in the back.
"Bang!"
There was a loud noise, and Zhao Honglie's body was hit by the golden fist shadow, but there was no sign of shattering.
"Sacred Demon Shattering Mountain Fist!"
Zhao Honglie laughed wildly, turned around and punched Gu Sheng.
Gu Sheng dodged the punch in a flash.
He was secretly surprised that this Zhao Honglie's Holy Demon Body was really strong and could actually withstand his Primordial Saint Body blow.
Zhao Honglie felt even more angry when he saw Gu Sheng dodged his attack.
He roared angrily, and Myriad Souls Banner waved again. Black mist surged, turning into countless ghosts and big black hands, attacking Gu Sheng crazily.
Gu Sheng's figure shuttled through the darkness, avoiding these attacks.
He knew in his heart that continuing like this was not an option, and he had to find a way to crack Zhao Honglie's attack.
At this moment, he came up with a plan and secretly activated Vajra Demon Suppressing Bell.
I saw a golden light pouring out of Gu Sheng's body, Vajra Demon Suppressing Bell suddenly emerged, the runes flowed, and the golden light flourished.
"What is this?" Zhao Honglie's complexion changed drastically, and he felt a powerful pressure emanating from Vajra Demon Suppressing Bell.
Gu Sheng sneered, and he activated Primordial Saint Body. His whole body was golden, and the golden fist shadow emerged again.
