The first match then began. Previously, each participant was given a plaque containing their number. From number one to a hundred. Those who have the same number will compete at that time.
"Alright, number twelve seventeen, please enter the arena!" said MC woman.
Zhang Ziyi noticed the plaque in his hand.
"That's me!"
"Wiih, Brother Ziyi will perform first. I'm sure Brother Ziyi will succeed!" said Zhang Lan.
"Hopefully!" zhang Ziyi said with a small smile.
"I never doubted Brother Ziyi!"
"Um, um,"
Zhang Ziyi then jumped into the middle of the arena. His own opponent had now prepared to wait for him there.
Whush!
Zhang Ziyi landed on the ground. Seeing a lot of eyes on him. But he did not care because it was natural, considering he was a participant in this tournament.
Then Zhang Ziyi noticed his opponent who had such a neat look with a small smile as well as his opponent showing him.
+++
Zhang Ziyi jumped into the middle of the arena. His opponent had currently been waiting for him there.
"What a shame, son. You have to meet me at the beginning of the game. I hope you can give me something interesting!" said this man who was Zhang Ziyi's opponent in a haughty tone.
Not responding, but replying with a small smile.
"I hope you can share something interesting too!" reply Zhang Ziyi.
"Curtain,"
"Good... Get started!" said the MC woman with her voice echoing.
The man who was Zhang Ziyi's opponent instantly unleashed his power. He was surrounded by the element of sand. It covered his entire body.
Swooshi!
The sand spread on the floor. Simultaneously, the whereabouts of the man had disappeared.
Zhang Ziyi was on high alert, looking at the moving sand on the arena floor, at high speed towards him. The sand itself split into two, moving simultaneously towards Zhang Ziyi.
Zhang Ziyi dodged by jumping to the right side. But the sand doesn't want to just let go. Returning to target Zhang Ziyi without any intention of letting go.
Zhang Ziyi flew upwards, the sand turned tapered, large and chased after Zhang Ziyi who had been above the air.
Whush!
Sudden Fire Energy was created from Zhang Ziyi's two hands, then threw it towards the sand thorns.
Bamm!
The explosion occurred, the spiky sand thorns immediately exploded.
Zhang Ziyi had no intention of letting the Sand God Heir last too long. Using every effort to attack him continuously.
Although it was made difficult by its strong defense, but in the end Zhang Ziyi still won the first match, quite easily.
The action shown by Zhang Ziyi in bringing out various elements at once, reaped a lot of attention from the audience. Not only those who sat on the bleachers, but also those three special guests.
"Is he from the Sky Empire?" ask the leader of the devil.
The Celestial Emperor General and the representative lady of the Dark Empire looked at each other for a moment. Before returning his gaze forward, without intending to answer a question from Mu Hei.
"Hahaha, you guys are so arrogant, yet I will refrain from killing you two here!" threaten the Demon King, at both.
Neither the Celestial Emperor General, nor the Representative from the Dark Empire had responded to it. Although their strength was no stronger than the Demon King, there was not the slightest intention to fear him.

"Thank you, then maybe your name will be called, so be prepared!" zhang Ziyi said to his comrades.
"Good!"
Long enough the match went on. Since this was a top class match, there was hardly anything uninteresting to watch. But still, it only applied to some people, while others only looked at the Struggles that were happening above the arena without any lust.
Zhang Ziyi noticed a person who had now been standing leisurely above the Arena. Waiting for his opponent. He did not know her, but there was eye contact between the two. Even the man's words yesterday, made Zhang Ziyi wonder what the strength of this man would be like.
In a moment, the opponent of the man had appeared. The MC woman had allowed both of them to fight. But the two were still silent in place with no one intending to start.
"You see, I don't like to start and don't like to wait long!" said the man. He was Huang Shen who was an heir to the God of Court.
"Hahaha, indeed this is an advantage of the God of Court. I don't like to wait, but I also don't like to start... Be well. It's quite interesting!" huang Shen's opponent laughed for a moment.
"I told you, I don't like to wait. If you don't attack, then don't blame me for not giving you room to attack" Huang Shen said with a flat expression.
"Hahaha, okay. I'm ak—!"
Uhuk!
Not yet finished his sentence, a hard bend had already struck his chest. So full of energy that it made him bounce far out of the arena stage of the match.
The audience had already guessed this would happen, because they had learned how this lunge from Huang Shen was. Although fairly new in terms of inheriting the God of justice, but he has tried many people and carved his name even people will be reluctant to him. So Huang Shen deserved to be the top five nominee in this tournament.
***
The match for today is over. Zhang Lan as well as six others had managed to win the match. Although Zhang Lan and Zhang Zhili had gotten quite difficult opponents earlier, it was fortunate that they had not used their aces.
Of the battles that had been going on earlier, the ones that finished the fastest were Hei An, Huang Shen, Goh Lalu and some people who were in the frenzy as top ten candidates in this tournament.
Seeing tomorrow's match the strength of the top hundred contestants who were quite stronger than before, then Zhang Ziyi decided to take these comrades somewhere. To increase their strength to compete tomorrow.
"I want to meet your manager?" zhang Ziyi said to the two people guarding a huge wake. The building itself was a Silver Cloud auction that stood in the High Cliff City.
"Hmm, he's busy. You can meet him another day. If you're gonna buy something, then our waiter's gonna take you."
"Hmm, really?"
The guard did not reply, and instead flatly expressed.
"Well then, thank you!" zhang Ziyi. Then he and his comrades walked into the Silver Cloud Auction branch.
As the Guard said earlier, they were being escorted by a woman who was a servant at the auction. The servant woman herself was not an ordinary person, but rather a cultivator of the Universe realm.
"What are you looking for?" ask the waiter kindly.
"We're looking for a high-level skill." Zhang Ziyi replied to a question from the servant.
"Well, let's follow me!"
***
They walked up, climbing the stairs that connect with the second floor. Entering a room, they arrive at the destination.
"Please!" said Waiter.
Zhang Ziyi and his comrades entered the room. So many scrolls that were high-level skills. Yet after Zhang Ziyi traced through, everything seemed to be mediocre. Nothing special according to him. Indeed those skills are not ordinary skills, but still, to defeat the heirs who have high knowledge, this is not so useful.
"Didn't you guys have any higher skills than this?" zhang Ziyi asked.
"We just have this!"
"Hmm, then, take me to your manager!"
The waiter shook his head slowly. "Sorry Sir. The manager is busy. There's a lot of business he has to do, so he can't see you."
"Then you know this!"
Seeing what Zhang Ziyi had shown earlier, it suddenly made the servant's eyes widen. He immediately ran out of the room to meet the manager of the Silver Cloud Auction branch in the town of Bukit Tinggi.
