The Dragon God of Destruction
Sweepstakes
Tianyu Star, Sword Sect
The atmosphere in the arena changed instantly when Jie Yan who was the last participant finally arrived.
Jie Yan casually walked towards the reserved participant bench on the outskirts of the arena.
When he got closer to the participant bench, Jie Yan noticed Yun Che for the first time. He was not surprised when he saw that Yun Che's cultivation had reached the late stage Immortal Soul level as well as his.
“I don't think you'll dare come to this competition!” Qing Cao who hated Jie Yan so much said in a cold tone.
Qing Mu who was the Fifth Elder's disciple also looked at Jie Yan with a murderous gaze. If he were now outside the Sword Sect, he would have directly charged towards Jie Yan.
To Qing Lan Yu, Qing Mo, Qing Fei and Qing Yufeng, the four of them just silently glanced towards Jie Yan. The events in the Ancient Forest did irritate them but it was obvious that they were less able to lose. The strategy Jie Yan created was part of an ability so they could only remain silent at this moment.
Jie Yan only walked past Qing Cao and Qing Mu which made the two even more furious.
“How dare you ignore me?” Qing Cao widened his eyes and his eyes almost spouted flames when he saw Jie Yan's demeanor.
“Hm?” Jie Yan stopped and looked towards Qing Cao then dug his ear hole then continued, “Are you talking to me?”
Qing Cao had almost spewed out a mouthful of red blood from being played with by Jie Yan. Her face that was red turned green. His killing intent seeped slowly and he was ready to lung at any time towards Jie Yan.
“Quiet my brother.. There will be time to teach this boy a lesson!” Qing Mu was also furious but held him back and tried to stop Qing Cao from making a mistake.
Qing Cao took a deep breath and calmed himself down so as not to make a mess. He knew that if he attacked Jie Yan at this time, he would definitely be disqualified.
“Hope that you do not meet me!” qing Cao said coldly.
Jie Yan only smirked then walked back towards where Yun Che was. He immediately sat down next to Yun Che ignoring the other participants who were staring at him closely.
For Qing Lan Yu and Qing Mo, the two did not underestimate Jie Yan because when Jie Yan's cultivation was at the intermediate stage Immortal Soul level, his strength was already extremely strong. Both of them believed that Jie Yan was currently capable of fighting with all the other participants.
To Yun Che, he merely glanced at Jie Yan then gazed back towards the arena.
Not until ten minutes later, the First Elder who felt his time had come spoke in the middle of the arena.
“Welcome to the Competition held by the Sword Sect for once every ten years. This time the competition has entered the third round which is the final round of the competition. This time the eight participants who escaped will compete in the arena.”
“Honored guests, I as the jury of the third round competition will introduce the eight participants this time.” After the First Elder spoke, he called Perseta one by one while introducing them.
When Jie Yan and Yun Che were summoned, introducing about them made many disciples exclaim loudly for not expecting that the two had not long ago entered the Sword Sect but the achievements of both of them were extremely high not only in terms of cultivation and sword intent, but also his second brilliance in the first and second stage competitions.
After a brief introduction, the First Elder shook his hand then a box appeared right before him.
“Participants who fall outside the arena will be considered defeated. Also, if one participant gives up, the other participant is prohibited from attacking. If they do, they will be disqualified. Is there any question?” Asked the First Elder staring at the eight participants.
“Is there a murder ban? If other participants do not want to give up at that time, then other participants will not be disqualified if they accidentally kill participants who do not want to give up, right?” Jie Yan asked with a warm smile on his face.
The First Elder stared deeply at Jie Yan for a while then glanced towards where Qing Long was.
Qing Long who was in the special seat watching the competition only gave a small nod as he naturally knew what Jie Yan was asking. This was also an order from the central Sword Sect so the competition this time was very different from the previous competences held in the Sword Sect.
“Yes, if the participant who is unable to fight again does not declare surrender, then the other participant has the right to kill him. So, for the participants who are not sure of victory, immediately declare surrender when the game is underway.” said the First Elder.
The other seven participants put on a serious expression because they knew that the competition rules this time were very different from the past Competition.
“Good, the first is Jie Yan. Take your number draw.” said the First Elder gazing towards Jie Yan because Jie Yan is the First rank of the second stage competition.
Jie Yan immediately advanced and took the draw in the form of a ball in the box. When he picked it up, the number four was seen on the surface of the small ball.
“Number Four, match two.” said the First Elder then on the match list board, the name Jie Yan appeared.
“Please return to the seat of the participant.” said the First Elder and after Jie Yan left, he continued, “Yun Che.”
When Yun Che took the draw, he took the number six, which was the third match.
Next was Qing Lan Yu, the number eight lottery. After that Qing Mo with the number one draw. Next up was Qing Fei with the number seven draw. And Qing Yufeng drew number two.
Next up was Qing Cao. His eyes seemed to show happiness at this moment as only Jie Yan and Yun Che did not yet have any opponents. As he took the draw, the smile on his face grew wider.
“Number three.” Qing Cao said with a flash of murder in his eyes.
Jie Yan who was staring at it also smiled. He felt that this was also the right time because his opponent turned out to be Qing Cao. And as for Qing Mu, he automatically fought Yun Che.
The spectators cheered in the audience. They all immediately placed bets for the upcoming match.
Only Qing Mo and Qing Yufeng were left in the arena this time after the other participants returned to the participant bench.
When Qing Cao came to the waiting bench for the participants, he smirked evilly because he had intended to kill Jie Yan from the beginning. “Church, see if you can still be arrogant when the time comes!”
Jie Yan glanced at Qing Cao then smiled slightly and replied, “Wash your neck cleanly. Maybe I'll collect your body later. It just so happened that I had previously beheaded someone named Qing An in the Ancient Forest!”
When Qing Cao heard that, his eyes were about to spout fire in anger. He already knew that it was Jie Yan who killed Qing An. But he was confident that he could kill Jie Yan because Qing An's strength was only on par with Qing Mu and himself one step ahead of the two.
Meanwhile, the Fifth Elder who was in his place watching, raised the corner of his lips as there was finally a chance to finish Jie Yan off.
