The Journey of Overthrowing the Celestial Emperor
Ch. 238 ~ Semi Finals

Fang Shi flew even higher. Intending to unleash his strongest attack.

Black clouds gathered up there, emitting sounds as well as lightning bolts. Fang Shi made a move, after which he brought out an enormous sword from the sky.

Eve around instantly turned gripping. Heavy pressure came along with the descent of the sword.

Whush!

The sword that contained an immense might shot down, right towards Mu Ai.

Baammu!

With just one hand, Mu Ai held back the sword. The energy circle is spreading. Mu Ai put up a cynical grin.

"Cih, only with this weak attack can this bully me?" Mu Ai then strengthened the grip of her hand on the large sword. Instantly cracked and instantly shattered into pieces.

"A–what?" Fang Shi could not believe what he had seen just now. That attack was one of the strongest attacks he had. But with just one hand of Mu Ai alone the sword had been smashed into pieces.

"Since you're done, it's my turn!" Right after finishing the matter earlier, Mu Ai instantly disappeared from her place. In a split second it had reappeared right behind Fang Shi.

Unmercifully, Mu Ai instantly launched a fist that contained great power on Fang Shi's back.

Just the contact made Fang Shi's body bounce forward. So fast Fang Shi was in darting, yet Mu Ai again appeared in front of him and re-launched her fists. It continued until several times. With a single closing strike from him instantly made Fang Shi buried within the arena floor.

The match was won by Mu Ai. Several medical team members went straight down in the arena and helped provide first aid to Fang Shi.

Meanwhile, Mu Ai briefly turned her head towards Zhang Ziyi with a sinister gaze, before leaping out of the stage.

Zhang Ziyi had earlier witnessed the fight of the two. He had noticed Mu Ai, Besides that he was also thinking about how to fight this Mu Ai.

Regarding the matter of cultivation, Zhang Ziyi was indeed beneath Mu Ai. And that became a distinct advantage for Mu Ai. Moreover, it was unseen that Mu Ai unleashed her true strength.

"I have to be careful if I meet him in the final party later," Zhang Ziyi muttered inwardly.

After the match the two men, the match was temporarily pending. Give the semifinals an hour to rest.

During that time, various performances were performed on stage.

Until an hour passed. MC came to the middle of the arena.

"Okay, please pay attention to all. The game was on the verge of the top. We have found the four best people, as well as the best Goddess God in this period. And for the participants who enter the other eight, we will announce together with champions one two and three later!" MC's voice was so loud. Making attention can't not be on her.

"To the Four participants who qualified in the semifinals, please enter the stage!"

Zhang Ziyi and Hei An looked at each other for a moment, before both leaping onto the arena stage.

"Congratulations to all of you who have made it to this semi-final. I hope you can show your potential in this round. Show that you are the best among the best!" MC.

"Yes!" The four finalists nodded.

After a while, the name replay process began. Now there are four token cards left with the face carvings of Zhang Ziyi, Hei An, Mu Ai and Tai Yang.

Blue energy is back to spin, moving from one token card to the other card token.

Stop at the name of the first.it comes from the picture of Hei An.

"I'm the first one!" said Hei An.

The second energy cycle begins.

The spring!

The spring!

The spring!

The blue energy stopped on the token card with an image of Tai Yang.

"Bad. At last. Brother Ziyi, I will wait for you in the final. Don't lose before you meet me!" Hey An seraya whispered.

"Umm, you don't lose here either!"

"Sister Ziyi just calm down. He's not my level. I can beat him easily."

"Don't be overconfident and also don't underestimate your opponents–!" Zhang Ziyi reminded Hei An.

"Yes .. yes! I know!"

After a while, MC invited the two participants who will compete first to get ready. As for Zhang Ziyi and Mu Ai then jumped out of the stage.

-

The fight over the arena has already taken place. Hei An and Tai Yang had been fighting since a few seconds ago. The beginning does look a draw, but as time goes by, the more looks Hei An more domineering.

"I must prepare to fight Mu Ai for a bit," Zhang Ziyi muttered.

He then moved from there. Flying at high speed then disappearing into time.

"Where did you see him?" ask one of them.

"Eitherway. Maybe that way!" said the other replied. Everything also moved quickly towards the direction that the person pointed at earlier.

-

Zhang Ziyi realized that some people were following him. Immediately he activated the spirit body, making himself invisible to those who followed him. Look at them all on the roof of a building.

"Hmm, these people are from the Flying Fan Sect Army!"

.He was still watching them, until those people disappeared from there. Zhang Ziyi's form is back.

After that he decided to enter the soul realm.

Set a time where a month is in the realm of the soul, equal to one minute in the real world. Zhang Ziyi intended to increase his cultivation by at least one stage before Fighting against Mu Ai later on.

In the Soul Realm, Zhang Ziyi spent cultivating also in tandem with the practice. Imagine Mu Ai's face was there. Because this was his soul realm so Zhang Ziyi was free to imagine anything and to make it happen here.

***

Two months in the soul realm had passed. It was time for Zhang Ziyi to come out. His cultivation had increased by one stage. In addition, he also increased how many skills he had, some of his skills he would use later to fight Mu Ai.

Zhang Ziyi realized, that during the fight against Mu Ai later, it would require more strength. He was also certain, even though Mu Ai was at the 9th stage of the Heavenly Realm Holy realm, but her strength might be on par with the Divine Realm realm. So fighting him is not easy.

Zhang Ziyi returned to the match hall. Looking at the stage, Hei An and Tai Ying had made a huge shock of their fight. The Sun God and the Dark Goddess were fighting more and more seriously. Caused a disaster of no concern.

Therefore, the Array wall formation has been installed to prevent the attacks from spreading to cause more damage to the surrounding area.

Bamm!

Baammu!

Baammu!

Explosions sounded in succession. Light against dark energy. In the end, Hei An still won the battle z after successfully making Tai Yang flung and hit the Array wall until it cracked, by his attack.

After that, MC again announced the winner of the first match semi-final.

Hei An came towards Zhang Ziyi.

"Waah, congratulations. You've made it through this round." Zhang Ziyi praised Hei An.

"Yes that. Big Brother Ziyi should also be able to defeat Mu Ai. Take out all of Ziyi's brother's abilities. If necessary for him, fall down so embarrassing," said Hei An.

"Yes, I'll beat him!" zhang Ziyi said confidently.

On the other side of the arena. A woman who was the representative of the Dark Empire put on a bright smile when she saw Hei An who qualified for the final round.

The expectation of getting the top prize of this match is getting bigger.

"Haha... My goddess is great. He could defeat the son of the sun god and the moon goddess easily. I'm sure he'll win this game and take home the top prize.

He deliberately hardened his voice slightly in order to be heard by the Celestial Emperor General.

Sure enough, the facial lines shown by the Celestial Emperor General were so unfriendly. He didn't seem so receptive when he saw the Dark Goddess make it through to the final round.

That meant that the opportunity for the Dark Empire to obtain the grand prize was greater. So that maybe the Dark Empire would be one step ahead compared to the Sky Empire.

"Whatever and however it may be, the ultimate Gift must not fall into the hands of the Sky Empire," the Inner General of the Sky Empire.

MC says. He ordered Zhang Ziyi as well as Mu Ai to enter the arena and start the match.

The two contestants had prepared in their respective places. Zhang Ziyi did not want to underestimate Mu Ai. So that he instantly took out the Heavenly Dragon Sword as well as the Sky Reversing Sword. He would fight Mu Ai with those two swords at once.

Zhang Ziyi flowed his entire body with Qi energy. A black aura engulfed his body.

And so did Mu Ai. Mu Ai's body emitted a blood-red colored energy. It looked to Mu Ai who also did not want to underestimate Zhang Ziyi.

Darting at high speed, as before, this Mu Ai chose to defend rather than attack. Thus making Zhang Ziyi have to attack first.

"Thank you for allowing me to strike first" Zhang Ziyi said in between the fight.

A slash!

One deep slash landed on Mu Ai's skin. It instantly tore the demon flesh to the point of almost being visible to its bones.

But soon the tear recovered.

"I guessed it," Zhang Ziyi muttered. "The rest of his body will regenerate faster, but there is one point in his body that has slow regeneration."

From the Battle between Mu Ai and Fang Shi earlier, Zhang Ziyi could see this part of Mu Ai's back that had been so long in regenerating. This might also be the weakness of this Mu Ai.

Zhang Ziyi attacked at the front. But unbeknownst to Mu Ai, Zhang Ziyi had prepared something that he would use to attack Mu Ai's weak point.
