That was a youth dressed in golden clothes, his skin and eyes even seed to be faintly radiating glimrs of gold. However, including the onlookers around, there were few who recognized his identity.
It was only when Xuan Haoran introduced him just now that the people learned the na of this youth in gold was Jin Wuli, hailing from an empire called sothing like Wuhai.
Yet, regarding this Wuhai Empire, everyone present still felt unfamiliar with it, only aware that it must not be a famous empire, perhaps just so extrely remote and minor empire.
Upon the Hidden Dragon Continent, there are thousands of empires, and no one can rember the na of every empire. Even the cultivators from so powerful empires would only be able to search for these distant minor empires using a map.
You can’t say that when people saw Jin Wuli effortlessly win, so actually took out a map and located the so-called Wuhai Empire, indeed it was in an extrely remote place in the northwest of the Hidden Dragon Continent.
This Wuhai Empire that is billions of miles away from the Xuanyue Empire, I’m afraid Jin Wuli would need several months of travel to reach the Xuanyue Empire.
And yet, such a remote minor empire was able to produce such a stunningly brilliant genius, and everyone’s hearts filled with emotion, becoming even more unwilling to underestimate the heroes of the world.
"This person is sowhat strange!"
However, while everyone was filled with emotions, Yun Xiao’s gaze flickered slightly, staring at Jin Wuli who leaped down from the arena, watching unblinkingly, which made the two won beside him sowhat curious.
"Hey, it’s your turn now!"
Seeing Yun Xiao lost in thought, Liu Hanyi pushed his shoulder, finally bringing him back to his senses. As he looked up, indeed he saw Nie Qianqiu, the Crown Prince of the Lingtian Empire, already standing on the arena early on.
"Yun Xiao, co up here and let’s finish this."
Seeing Yun Xiao’s gaze co over, a jealous and hateful look swept through Nie Qianqiu’s eyes, then a stern shout followed, his voice laced with a hint of murderous intent.
"Huh? Could it be that Yun Xiao knows that Nie Qianqiu?"
As soon as the Lingtian Crown Prince on the stage said this, those such as the ones from Jade Pot Sect and many cultivators of the Xuanyue Empire all had a guess in their hearts.
Moreover, judging by Nie Qianqiu’s tone, it seed that he extrely disliked Yun Xiao. They did not know about everything that happened in the Lingtian Empire, nor did they know that because of Xu Hongzhuang, Nie Qianqiu had long regarded Yun Xiao as a lifelong enemy.
"Hey, this kid really knows how to stir up trouble."
As for the Xuanyue Crown Prince, Xuan Jiuding, a sneer appeared on his face. In fact, if possible, what he most looked forward to was personally ending Yun Xiao’s life.
But now it seed that the opportunity wouldn’t co to him. Even though he had never seen Nie Qianqiu make a move, Xuan Jiuding was quite clear that the Crown Prince of Lingtian might not be weaker than himself.
Regardless, Yun Xiao was only at the Mid Stage of the ridian Union Realm, even if his strength displayed in the Demon Realm was not bad, there were always tricks involved. As long as one took precautions, dealing with him should still be very easy.
Without caring about the thoughts of the onlookers or enemies like Xuan Jiuding, Yun Xiao hopped onto the arena with ease and proceeded slowly. In a brief mont, he was no more than a few ters away from Nie Qianqiu.
"Yun Xiao, so people are beyond your reach. I’d advise you not to harbor any headstrong or delusional thoughts."
For so reason, every ti Nie Qianqiu saw Yun Xiao’s indifferent face, the jealousy in his heart could no longer be contained, imdiately speaking with ridicule.
Aside from Yun Xiao and Xu Hongzhuang below the stage, no one understood the deeper implications of Nie Qianqiu’s words. As for Xu Hongzhuang herself, her beautiful eyes were always on Yun Xiao, really wanting to know how this young man, who almost beca her husband, would respond.
"If by ’so people’, you an the daughter of the Lingyun Sect master, Xu Hongzhuang, then you’re worrying too much. Between her and , there’s nothing anymore!"
However, Yun Xiao’s next few words stung Xu Hongzhuang like needles, and her delicate body trembled violently. This detestable guy, how could he be so heartless?
Actually, Yun Xiao didn’t harbor too much dislike toward Xu Hongzhuang herself, but he clearly knew that there was no longer any possibility between him and Xu Hongzhuang; it would be better to sever the ties sooner rather than later.
Yun Xiao knew Xu Hongzhuang was listening below the stage. His words were clearly spoken to Nie Qianqiu, but weren’t they also intended for Xu Hongzhuang to hear? He wanted her to give up on him completely.
However, after Yun Xiao spoke, Nie Qianqiu’s mood did not improve much, especially when he caught a glimpse of Xu Hongzhuang’s state out of the corner of his eye, he was even more unable to suppress his fury.
"Yun Xiao, she is not soone you can have if you want and discard if you don’t. You must pay the price for your actions!"
Nie Qianqiu, who already regarded Xu Hongzhuang as his own forbidden delight, erupted at this mont. The very thought of Yun Xiao going to Lingyun Sect to annul the engagent, further humiliating Xu Hongzhuang, made him lose all restraint.
"What a strange guy!"
Seeing this, Yun Xiao couldn’t help shaking his head. This guy was causing trouble for him over his association with Xu Hongzhuang; even after Yun Xiao said there was nothing between them, the other party was relentless. This wasn’t just strange; it was downright despicable.
The ridian Qi Cultivation of the Crown Prince of Lingtian Empire indeed was majestic. Once unleashed, it was not much less than that of the few who had won previously. Compared to that, Yun Xiao’s subtly emanating Mid-Stage ridian Union Realm aura seed sowhat lacking.
Most of the onlookers had not seen Yun Xiao in action, so aside from a few prodigies who had been to the peak of Demon Suppressing Mountain, they didn’t really favor Yun Xiao’s chances.
The performance of Ling Wan had been extrely dazzling before, but even with that miraculous spherical body, didn’t it ultimately lose to Ye Shii’s Silver Needle?
The crowd did know that Yun Xiao and Ling Wan ca from the sa sect, but how long has Yun Xiao been rising? His true capabilities have not yet been displayed under the watchful eyes of the multitude.
The ability to fight above one’s level usually only manifests in prodigies like Shen Wannian or Ye Shii. And now, Yun Xiao’s opponent was precisely such a prodigy; how could he possibly win?
Yun Xiao didn’t care about the thoughts of the bystanders. After breaking through to the Mid-Stage of ridian Union Realm, facing these late-stage ridian Union Realm prodigies no longer put him under any pressure.
Even if Nie Qianqiu was stronger, he wouldn’t be stronger than Du Ruofeng and Wei You combined, after all, they all were cultivators in the Late Stage of ridian Union Realm.
The enmity between the two had already been established back at the ridian Refining Master’s Association of Lingtian Empire, and although Nie Qianqiu later ambushed Yun Xiao with Ran Xing, they never actually fought hand-to-hand.
"Green Phoenix Soaring to the Sky!"
At Nie Qianqiu’s low shout, the ridian Qi in front of him underwent a transformation, turning into a cyan-colored giant Pulse Bird, with a long luan tail that seed lifelike.
The Green Phoenix is a formidable Flying Beast Pulse Demon, believed to have so bloodline inheritance from the Ancient Phoenix Clan, and when cultivated to an extrely high realm, can even reach the Holy Rank Third Realm.
However, the current ridian Qi Green Phoenix was rely ford by Nie Qianqiu’s Late-Stage ridian Union Realm Qi, and its power was far lesser than that of a genuine Green Phoenix; it was simply a powerful ridian Technique.
Of course, even as a ridian Technique, none of the cultivators watching from inside or outside of the square who had not reached the Spirit Vein Realm found the Green Phoenix’s fierce dive daunting; such power was comparable to the attacks of so peak ridian Union Realm cultivators.
It must be said that the Crown Prince of Lingtian Empire, despite his verbal disdain for Yun Xiao, didn’t underestimate him in his heart. After all, that youngster had defeated the joint forces of Du Ruofeng and others.
Moreover, Nie Qianqiu knew well that if it ca down to physical strength alone, he was probably not a match for Yun Xiao, which is why he decisively decided to use ridian Qi to overpower, starting with such a strong ridian Technique.
"A ridian Demon Form, huh?"
Yun Xiao just gazed blankly at Nie Qianqiu’s attack, and in the ti it takes to speak, the ridian Qi Green Phoenix’s claws were already furiously descending upon him.
The force that seed capable of shredding Yun Xiao’s body gave the impression that it truly was an Ancient Divine Beast. However, in the next mont, everyone’s eyes beca stagnant.
Yun Xiao casually lifted his right arm, wrapped in a wisp of golden light, turning it into a golden arm, exceptionally sturdy in appearance.
"Red Gold Dragon Arm!"
Yun Xiao’s low shout echoed within him, and he hurled his right arm fiercely against the Green Phoenix’s claws. The resulting clash of ridian Techniques was drastically different from what the spectating crowd had anticipated.
"Screech!"
The ridian Qi Green Phoenix struck by Yun Xiao’s Red Gold Dragon Arm let out a piercing screech, seemingly in intense agony. Even its feathers of Qi were sent fluttering in that mont.
Although the Red Gold Dragon Arm and the Green Phoenix Soaring to the Sky were both of the sa grade – Spiritual Rank Advanced – the level of Nine-layered Dragon Cloud’s Spiritual Rank Advanced was not sothing the Hidden Dragon Continent’s Spiritual Rank Advanced ridian Techniques could compare to.
Additionally, with Yun Xiao having tempered his physical strength twice, the power of this Red Gold Dragon Arm could compare even to so low-level Earth Rank ridian Techniques.
How could a re ridian Qi Green Phoenix endure such mighty force? Amidst its wretched crying, the explosive power of Yun Xiao’s arm burst forth, and the entire body of the phoenix was blown apart at that mont.
One could imagine the sheer power of Yun Xiao’s arm, and the cultivators familiar with Nie Qianqiu’s ridian Technique looked at Yun Xiao thoughtfully, as they had already surmised that the grade of that Golden Light Arm ridian Technique must not be low.
A ridian Technique that enhances the arm, while it indeed tests physical strength, depends more on ridian Qi Cultivation. Now that Yun Xiao’s ridian Qi Cultivation was weaker but still ca out ahead in the contest of ridian Techniques, what grade had this Golden Arm ridian Technique reached?
