Sure enough, an hour after Sun Fei left, the [ Bloody Twin Blades ], unable to sustain the drain on their resources any longer, voluntarily ceased their terrifying offensive.

At that very moment, the Magic Princess, who had been concentrating with her eyes closed, suddenly waved her staff, unleashing the terrifying ice magic [ Ice Blade Storm ] that she had been preparing for a long time. In an instant, the jade-colored circular ice shield that had been covering the Magic Princess's exquisite body transformed into countless densely packed ice blades, which flew everywhere like a terrifying swarm of bees, engulfing the [ Bloody Twin Blades ].

The terrifying magic that turns defense into offense is like the most beautiful ice storm in the world.

[ Bloody Twin Blades ]'s defense was clearly not as sharp and unparalleled as his attack. Under the Magic Princess's long-prepared magical ultimate attack, he only lasted for less than ten seconds before his defense was completely broken.

Countless sharp shards of ice whistled and spun like blades, piercing his body. A burst of blood-red mist exploded, followed by the sound of bones breaking. Finally, the shards of ice flying everywhere suddenly disappeared, as if they had melted into the air and turned into mist. The two strange twin blades clattered to the ground, revealing a complete, white skeleton!

The [ Bloody Twin Blades ] were completely stripped of all flesh and bone by the countless shards of ice, leaving only a pristine white skeleton.

This is exactly how he killed people.

No one expected that the mysterious, Bloody swordsman who had been brutally murdering his opponents would ultimately meet the same fate. Could this be divine punishment?

No one expected that Xindi, the " First Goddess " Magic Princess who always appeared quiet and never killed anyone, would have such a cruel and cold-blooded side, because everyone could see that the Magic Princess deliberately chose this method to torture and kill her opponents.

Clearly, this beautiful woman with terrifying strength had been enraged by the previous brutal killings of the [ Bloody Twin Blades ].

Only after the referee announced the winner, Magic Princess sprouted two enormous azure Wings of Wind from her back, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing from the testing ground like a celestial maiden, did the tens of thousands of silent crowd erupt into a tremendous uproar. Some who had long hated the [ Bloody Twin Blades ] for their Bloody slaughter in the previous matches cheered loudly, while others whose loved ones had died at the hands of the [ Bloody Twin Blades ] wept bitterly...

Among the crowd, [ Wind and Thunder Staff ], [ Silver-Armored Berserker ], [ Prince of Luck ] Shevchenko, and others left with solemn expressions. The immense power of the Magic Princess Xindi had put tremendous pressure on them. As the crowd dispersed, someone suddenly rubbed their eyes and, incredulously, saw a solitary, aloof figure, strikingly similar to [ One Sword ]'s slender back...

Could it be that [ One Sword ], who has always been indifferent and invincible, and never cared about who his opponent was before a battle, has actually felt the pressure from a rival?

Back at the Chambord camp, Sun Fei transformed into a professional-level physician, beginning to treat the injuries of those who had been wounded during the day's competition.

Drogba was forcefully Stun on the testing platform by Kanute's [ Wind and Thunder Staff ]. Although protected by his Star Cloth, his strength was limited, and he couldn't fully utilize the Cloth's power. As a result, his internal organs suffered severe shocks and displacement. At the same time, Kanute's Wind and Thunder Staff had instilled some domineering wind and thunder power into his flesh and bones, constantly devouring and tearing at Drogba's body, causing serious injuries. Sun Fei used [ Healing Potion ] to help him heal his physical wounds and used the Aura power of Paladin to expel the wind and thunder power from his body. As for the displacement of his internal organs, he would indeed need to rest and recuperate slowly to recover.

Čech's injuries were rather strange. There were no obvious wounds on the surface, and it seemed like he was either poisoned or in a deep coma, remaining unconscious. Sun Fei examined him for a long time but found no cause. Fortunately, the legion commander's vital signs were stable, and there was no immediate danger. Sun Fei could only proceed cautiously.

The most seriously injured was Fernando Torres.

[ One Sword ]'s almost full-force One Sword severed his weapon. Had it not been for the protection of his Star Cloth, he would likely be lying dead on the testing ground today. However, the bone and flesh injuries caused by such sword energy were extremely easy for Sun Fei to heal. He used the Aura energy of Paladin to expel the special sword energy that [ One Sword ] had blasted into Torres' body, and then used [ Healing Potion ] to treat his external injuries. Soon, his personal guard was able to get out of bed and walk on his own. With a little rest, he could recover to his full strength.

After treating Torres's injuries, Sun Fei's face was grim.

Judging from the blond boy's injuries, [ One Sword ] clearly intended to kill Torres on the spot, but Torres escaped only because of the miraculous Star Cloth. Sun Fei couldn't understand why this top expert of the vassal state would resort to such ruthless tactics, given that he and [ One Sword ] had no deep-seated hatred for each other. Was [ One Sword ] really such a narrow-minded and petty person, lacking even this much magnanimity?

Sun Fei realized that his understanding of [ One Sword ] was still far too little.

Today's results were not good news for Chambord City. Of the seven top Chambord City fighters who made it into the top thirteen, most of them were injured or killed. Apart from Sun Fei and Elena, the others all lost on the testing ground. It was a huge setback, but Sun Fei was not too disappointed.

Because this was something he had actually anticipated.

Among the experts in Chambord City, apart from Elena strength has been rapidly increasing along with her own, most of the others were spurred to their current level by the [ Hulk Potion ]. Although their cultivation talents have been altered, their cultivation time is limited, amounting to less than half a year. Despite their astonishing progress, they are still far behind those martial arts geniuses who possess truly extraordinary natural talents and have cultivated for many years.

From a small, sixth-tier vassal state in a mess, Chambord City has risen to its current level, which can be considered a short-term peak. The fact that it has achieved such results in the Imperial Martial Combat Competition has shocked the entire empire. For Sun Fei, the goal has been achieved. Even if the [ Heng and Ha Generals ] and Čech and others are defeated in the Empire Ranking Competition, it is no longer of great importance.

Moreover, the upcoming battles for the top seven will inevitably be even more brutal. The Magic Princess Xindi, [ One Sword ], and [ Silver-Armored Berserker ] are unfathomable and possess profound skills, which are beyond the capabilities of Drogba and the others. Their early elimination to avoid casualties is also the result that Sun Fei hopes for.

Fifth update.
