I Can Devour Spirits

This contest was extremely exciting, and there was complete silence in the audience, so Lv Qingzhu’s voice slowly floated through...

Many people nodded, deeply agreeing, and Fan Yuanhai gave Lv Qingzhu a meaningful look upon hearing this.

Jie Daohan also heard Lv Qingzhu’s judgment and muttered, repeating Lv Qingzhu’s words.

”...Micro Realm...already has quite a deep understanding...”

However, Jie Daohan’s gaze did not move from start to finish, and his eyes remained firmly locked on Duan Rong...

At that moment, Qin Shuban’s voice rang out.

”Duan Rong! Three rounds in the points competition, all victories! Advanced to Sect Named Disciple!”

Not far from the Zhexing Platform, the crowd burst into cheers!

Duan Rong is, after all, the first to advance to Sect Named Disciple, and he comes from a civilian family! This legend he created will continue to spread in Xianggu County, inspiring generations of Han Family children...

Duan Rong finally let out a gentle smile, relieved!

In the pursuit of the Sect Named Disciple, he nearly drove himself mad.

Shen Yanliu’s gaze swept toward Tao Rong below the platform.

According to the rules, the use of mechanisms is prohibited in contests. This rule actually aims to forbid mechanisms like the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle.

The dart that Tao Rong threw should be called the Mother and Child Darts. Although it’s a throwing dart, it does bear some relation to mechanisms.

If one were to strictly adhere to the rules, Shen Yanliu could immediately disqualify Tao Rong, preventing him from participating in the subsequent stages of the life and death challenge!

However, this could cause disputes, and since Tao Jiusheng has some connections in Yuanyang Prefecture, there’s no need to create conflict over this.

As the host, Shen Yanliu didn’t bring it up, and naturally, the others didn’t want to waste words over such a dispute.

Duan Rong and Tao Rong returned to their teams!

Tao Rong immediately sat cross-legged, beginning to recover his Inner Breath quickly, preparing for the subsequent stages of the life and death challenge!

After all, he is at the Great Success Realm, and even though he was defeated by Duan Rong, he still has a significant chance to advance in the life and death challenge given his strength!

Duan Rong walked over, and Ximen Kankan just smiled at Duan Rong as a congratulation, as he was very nervous because Qin Shuban was starting to spin the wheel again.

Ximen Kankan’s nervousness wasn’t because he feared losing, but because he was afraid of encountering Xia Shuangshuang.

Losing deliberately to his goddess was like stabbing his heart, but his father was sitting in the audience, so if they did meet, he dared not go easy!

The result of the spinning for the second match came out, it was Xia Shuangshuang versus Shen Mizi!

The two stood on the Plum Blossom Stakes, a spear against a sword!

The crowd watching instantly erupted into a powerful wave of cheers! The topics most debated over tea and meals were Xiao Yu, Xia Shuangshuang, Shen Mizi, and seeing the duel between the two beauties was incredibly thrilling to the audience!

The two figures crossed instantly, engaging in battle!

Although Xia Shuangshuang had the advantage of weaponry, Shen Mizi’s sword technique and Body Technique had their unique flair.

The two fought evenly matched, Ximen Kankan’s eyes were glued to Xia Shuangshuang on stage, afraid to miss any detail.

At this moment, Duan Rong suddenly walked over to Xiao Yu and whispered in her ear, ”Don’t compete with Ximen Kankan, just concede directly!”

Xiao Yu frowned upon hearing this, obviously finding it hard to accept, but when her eyes met Duan Rong’s cold and clear gaze, she immediately understood Duan Rong’s meaning.

Xiao Yu pursed her lips looking at Duan Rong, not answering.

Duan Rong knew Xiao Yu understood from her expression, and he turned to move to where those who advanced to Sect Named Disciples stood.

Xiao Yu glanced at Tao Rong who was sitting not far away, recovering his Inner Breath, and her beautiful eyes sparkled.

Duan Rong meant that Xiao Yu was no match for Ximen Kankan. It’s better to preserve her strength for the life and death challenge at full capacity!

Having left Xiao Yu’s side, Duan Rong walked to Ximen Kankan, who suddenly grabbed him and asked, ”What did you tell her?”

Duan Rong shook off Ximen Kankan’s hand and said, ”Do you need to know everything?”

Ximen Kankan smirked, watching Duan Rong leave, saying, ”Never mind...I’m not worried about you giving her tips!”

On the Zhexing Platform, after a fierce battle, Xia Shuangshuang ultimately won over Shen Mizi!

At the start, the advantage of Xia Shuangshuang’s spear was not apparent due to Shen Mizi’s sword technique and Body Technique coordination!

But as the battle dragged on, both exhausted themselves considerably, and the advantage of the weaponry became more decisive in determining the victor!

Shen Mizi was eventually knocked off the platform by Xia Shuangshuang’s spear, a rather humiliating defeat!

Shen Mizi’s face turned pale, her lips bleeding, self-inflicted by biting down violently due to heightened emotions...

In the audience, Shen Yanliu’s face was also gloomy. He glanced at Xia Zhongyang not far away, who noticed his gaze and responded with a pleased look.

Shen Yanliu could only fume silently with a livid face since Xia Zhongyang, as the owner of the Yunshui Bank, had an even stronger backing than him.

”Xia Shuangshuang! Three rounds in the points competition, all victories! Advanced to Sect Named Disciple!”

As Qin Shuban announced it, Xia Shuangshuang, though exhausted, gave a bold smile and jumped off the platform to stand beside Duan Rong.

Xia Shuangshuang looked at Duan Rong and said, ”I didn’t expect Mr. Duan to not only have exceptional painting skills but also to be so formidable in Martial Arts!”

Duan Rong said, ”All skills lead to one path. Miss Xia, how do you know that Painting Fist isn’t a similar principle?”

Though Duan Rong was merely improvising, Xia Shuangshuang was still surprised.

The first two matches were over, leaving Ximen Kankan and Xiao Yu in the group with 2 points.

The two were also standing on the Plum Blossom Stakes; Ximen Kankan suddenly drew his knife, his body flickering, ready to strike!

But Xiao Yu suddenly declared loudly, ”I concede!”

After saying this, Xiao Yu jumped off the Plum Blossom Stakes!

Ximen Kankan stood on the Plum Blossom Stakes, stunned at Xiao Yu’s retreating figure, then his eyes flashed as he turned to look at Duan Rong, who was talking with Xia Shuangshuang.

At this moment, he already knew what Duan Rong had told Xiao Yu!

Xiao Zongting stood there, seemingly surprised to see Xiao Yu concede, but he quickly understood Xiao Yu’s thoughts.

Xiao Zongting nodded in approval of Xiao Yu’s decision. Adapting to circumstances is also a way to victory.

Tao Rong and Shen Mizi sat there recovering their Inner Breath, whereas Xiao Yu was leisurely standing there, resting with her eyes closed.

The matches in the group of six with 2 points are finished.

Duan Rong, Xia Shuangshuang, and Ximen Kankan directly advanced to Sect Named Disciple! Tao Rong, Shen Mizi, and Xiao Yu would participate in the final life and death challenge!

Next, the random duels would occur in the group of twelve with 1 point!

Despite this group not being as strong overall as the previous group, the intensity of the battles could be even higher. Because in this group, a loss means direct elimination.

After a fierce struggle, Jiang Qingyu, Qiu Tong, Yue Feng, Luo Zhoucheng, Gui Zong, and Fan Baolong were victorious!

Thus, the participants for the final life and death challenge were decided.

A total of nine participants: Tao Rong, Shen Mizi, Xiao Yu, Jiang Qingyu, Qiu Tong, Yue Feng, Luo Zhoucheng, Gui Zong, Fan Baolong.

These nine will compete in the life and death challenge to seize the remaining four slots!

Not only were these nine people tense, but those in the audience, watching their newly adult sons and daughters were equally tense and anxious.

Because the life and death challenge is, as the name suggests, a battle of life and death!

The rules are as follows: first, the wheel is spun, and the named person becomes the ringmaster, accepting challenges!

Anyone who chooses to challenge the ringmaster, regardless of how many, becomes a group with the ringmaster, and they compete until the last victor gets the slot, this is one stage!

Once one stage ends, the wheel spins again to select a new ringmaster, and the next stage begins! Once all four slots are filled, the challenge ends!

The names of the nine have already been placed on the wheel by the government constables!

Qin Shuban walked over and spun the wheel!
