Chapter 71

The Three Strongest, Ancient Battlefield Space!

"A mere fourth level of the Cave Heaven Realm?" Li Fang, who had just completed her breakthrough, looked much worse.

Qin Yi actually looks down on me?

"Even before I break through, I have absolute confidence in defeating you!"

"After my breakthrough, suppressing you will be effortless for me!"

"With your mere Core Formation realm cultivation, you have no right to be so arrogant in front of me!"

The next moment, Li Fang slashed out with her sword.

The perfected level of Fiery Blade Intent combined with the blade light to transform into a flaming blade light nearly ten feet long, bursting forth with a scorching and domineering aura, its power astonishing.

Faced with Li Fang's slash, Qin Yi remained calm, and his sword suddenly flashed upwards.

The wind and thunder surged, and the sword energy was swift and fierce, shattering the huge fiery blade light.

Li Fang had already rushed to Qin Yi's side.

The long sword in her hand unleashed a raging sea of ​​fire, seemingly threatening to engulf Qin Yi.

Qin Yi's lips curled up slightly.

Immediately afterwards, a crimson spark suddenly appeared at the tip of the low-grade Dao Sword Tianjun.

The moment this crimson spark appeared, the already extremely high temperature on the entire Starlight Platform suddenly rose even higher.

A sense of unease began to grow in Li Fang's heart.

The next instant, the crimson spark at the tip of Qin Yi's sword transformed into a small crimson sun!

It is the quasi-Dao level Crimson Sun Flame!

With a flick of Qin Yi's wrist, the small crimson sun flew towards Li Fang.

The raging sea of ​​fire unleashed by Li Fang was pierced.

Li Fang's expression changed drastically, her pupils contracted, she gripped the hilt of her knife tightly with both hands, let out a soft shout, and swung her knife fiercely at the small red sun that crashed in front of her.

She unleashed her full power, splitting the small crimson sun in half.

"boom!"

The small, crimson sun exploded with a deafening roar.

The crimson flames were incredibly powerful, and the heat they generated sent Li Fang flying backward, her body engulfed in flames.

Li Fang herself is also a fire spirit, and she has comprehended the Blazing Fire Blade Intent to a perfect level.

However, at this moment, she was in extreme pain as the crimson flames burned.

She forcibly controlled her body and regained her balance, then tried to extinguish the crimson flames on her body, otherwise, if it continued any longer, her body would be roasted alive!

But she had just put out the flames.

A sharp, piercing light had already reached her.

"puff!"

The sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh rang out.

Li Fang's chest was pierced through by Qin Yi's sword!

She trembled all over.

Qin Yi drew his sword.

Blood spurted from the holes in Li Fang's body.

She covered her front with both hands.

But blood was still gushing from the hole behind it.

In addition, Qin Yi's power was too strong and domineering, raging within her body and causing her continuous damage.

"Bang!"

Li Fang could no longer even maintain her standing posture.

His body collapsed, and he let out a painful groan.

"Fourth level of the Cave Heaven Realm, is that strong?" Qin Yi asked, his tone extremely indifferent.

"Top three! Brother Qin has made it into the top three!" Yun Meng'er shouted excitedly from below the Starlight Stage.

"A Core Formation Realm cultivator entering the top three of the Heavenly Star Competition, this is definitely another record!" Feng Ao shouted with a loud laugh.

Chu Huai-ren, his face full of admiration, said, "I, Chu Huai-ren, have actually managed to exchange blows for over sixty rounds with a super genius who has made it into the top three! That's incredible!"

Many disciples of Tianxuan Palace cheered.

Of course, everyone in the Grand Elder's camp at Tianxuan Palace had stiff expressions.

Qin Yi has made it into the top three of the Tianxing Grand Competition, which means that Mu Wan can continue to serve as the Palace Master of Tianxuan Palace.

Han Donglin's dream was shattered. The old man sitting on the high platform didn't say a word, but his hands, hidden in his sleeves, had already broken their palms from clenching them too tightly.

Luo Han, the Palace Master of Tian Shu Palace, also had a livid face. He looked at Mu Wan and said, "Palace Master Mu really is throwing all sorts of resources at him. She even prepared this quasi-Dao level flame for him."

"Palace Master Mu is truly going to any lengths to keep this position, letting a mere Core Formation cultivator refine a Quasi-Dao level flame. Isn't he afraid that the flame will backfire and he'll be reduced to ashes?"

Luo Han's words were certainly not for Qin Yi's safety.

He was deliberately mocking Mu Wan for using Qin Yi as a tool to maintain her position.

It also carries the connotation of sowing discord.

Mu Wan looked at Luo Han.

The quasi-Dao level flame was not given to Qin Yi by her at all.

But she didn't need to explain to Luo Han.

She simply said to Luo Han, "Palace Master Luo, the disciples of your Tian Shu Palace are clearly not that great."

Luo Han: "..."

"Sister Wan'er, your judgment is indeed very accurate. Congratulations on continuing to serve as the Palace Master of Tianxuan Palace." Liu Yan, sitting next to Mu Wan, took Mu Wan's arm. She was happy for Mu Wan.

Mu Wan's feelings were naturally self-evident. She said, "Before, I always said that he would be as outstanding as Senior Brother Qin Dao. Actually, I was wrong. He will be even more outstanding than Senior Brother Qin Dao!"

And this time.

Tang Zhenhai, the vice sect leader of the Cangjian Sect, said to Bai Changtian, the dean of the Tianxing Martial Academy, "Dean Bai, now that the top three have been determined, it's time to decide who will be first, second, and third."

Bai Changtian nodded and said, "It's getting late. Let the three of them go back and rest for the night to conserve their energy. We'll have the final showdown tomorrow."

"What does Vice Sect Leader Tang think?"

Tang Zhenhai nodded and said, "Everything can be arranged according to the plan of Tianxing Martial Academy."

Bai Changtian was just being polite to him.

What right does he have to say no?

Next, Bai Changtian announced that the Tianxing Grand Competition would continue tomorrow.

However, many people around the Starlight Platform did not leave.

Wait here!

After all, tomorrow's competition will be even more exciting, and if we leave now, it will be difficult to get a good spectator spot tomorrow.

After Qin Yi returned to Tianxuan Palace, Mu Wan led him to the main hall of Tianxuan Palace.

Liu Yan, the palace master of Yaoguang Palace, is also here.

"Palace Master Mu, Palace Master Liu."

"Is there anything you want to tell me?"

Qin Yi cupped his hands and asked.

Mu Wan said, "We only heard the Dean mention that the Cangjian Sect members were participating in the competition just before the competition started today."

Qin Yi took the initiative to ask, "I heard Feng Ao and Chu Huai Ren say that they both think that our Tianxing Martial Academy's agreement to let Tang Yuan of the Cangjian Sect participate must have come with conditions, right?"

Mu Wan nodded and said, "That's right."

"If Tang Yuan takes first place, our Tianxing Martial Academy will be very embarrassed."

"But if Tang Yuan doesn't get first place, not only will our Tianxing Martial Academy save face, but we'll also get ten more spots from the Cangjian Sect to enter the Ancient Battlefield Fragment Space!"

"An ancient battlefield fragment space?" Qin Yi's eyes flickered.

Liu Yan, the palace master of Yaoguang Palace, nodded and said, "The reason why Cangjian Sect has made rapid progress in strength in recent years, and is even close to catching up with our Tianxing Martial Academy, is due to the ancient battlefield fragment space."

"For the past few decades, they have sent people with cultivation levels below the Nirvana Realm into that ancient battlefield fragment space every year. They obtained a lot of good things from it, and that's how they gained their current strength."

"Therefore, when the deputy sect master of Cangjian Sect, Cang Zhenhai, presented this condition, the dean immediately agreed to let Tang Yuan participate in the competition."

At this moment, Qin Yi's thoughts raced.

Could the intense resentment emanating from Tang Yuan originate from that ancient battlefield fragment space?
