902 Mo Wens Figh (1/2)

Wine and Meat Monk's failure caused the atmosphere amongst the spectators to grow tense. Who would have thought that the dark horse who had appeared half-way through the competition would be so powerful?

Xin Wuji was victorious in two consecutive matches and had defeated extremely powerful opponents who each might have been the overall champion. This caused the atmosphere in the Divine Dragon Nest to become excited.

Everyone's gaze was focused on the first challenge ring and the young man called Xin Wuji.

Could it be that he would take first place in the Heaven List Tournament this year?

Xin Wuji smiled modestly and tried to remain calm. He tried to project the calm and strong aura that the strongest powerhouse should have. However, he had to suppress the tumultuous feelings deep within him. If he were not on the challenge ring, he would have screamed excitedly.

The Heaven List Tournament was a stage that everyone in the world was watching. He had never imagined, not even in his wildest dreams, that he would be able to reach this stage one day.

However, he had managed to do this not based on his abilities. Lord Familiar had been controlling his body throughout the entire battle. He did not need to worry about anything. However, no one knew of the Day Scorpion Familiar except for him, Xin Wuji.

”That lad is a little difficult to deal with.” As he watched the two matches, Mo Wen's expression was solemn. He had a slight understanding of Xin Wuji. In terms of cultivation depth, no competitor was his match. He was very close to becoming an ultimate warrior.

Of course, having a cultivation level close to that of ultimate warriors did not mean that one had the ability of an ultimate warrior.

In fact, ultimate warriors were strong not because of their cultivation but because of their understanding of the martial arts realms and the esoteric rules of heaven and earth. All ultimate warriors had to understand the path of profundity. That was the lowest requirement.

Some of the more powerful ultimate warriors were not only martial arts grandmasters, but they also understood the fledging stage of profound meaning. Some of them even understood several fledging stages of profound meaning. Ultimate warriors of this kind could be said to be like immortals.

Wine and Meat Monk had lost the battle. Water Deity knew that the chances of her winning were extremely small. However, no matter what, since she was already here, she had to give it a try. It was unlike her to give up fighting for first place.

Whoosh!

The third challenger, Water Deity!

”Miss Water Deity, please.”

Xin Wuji gestured in a gentlemanly manner. Even though he had already fought two battles back to back, it did not have a large impact on him. That was because the Day Scorpion Familiar's powers were limitless. A battle of this intensity had a negligible effect on the Day Scorpion Familiar.

”Please.”

Water Deity put her hands together politely and then disappeared from where she was standing. Then, the entire challenge ring was enveloped in a layer of mist. Illusionary figures darted through the mist.

The figures were very strong visual disruptions. Together with Water Deity's ability to control water, it made it difficult for her opponent to figure out which figure was real and which wasn't.

Water Deity's strength was in her technique. In terms of power, she was much weaker than Wine and Meat Monk. However, due to her exquisite technique, even Wine and Meat Monk did not dare to take her lightly.

Of all the competitors, Water Deity was the best at defense. Water figures and mists layered upon each other thickly as Water Deity hid in the mist appearing only fleetingly.

Against such an opponent, Xin Wuji found it difficult to focus all his strength.

Soon, the battle was at a surprising stalemate. It had dragged on for longer than both Wine and Meat Monk and Dark Hand's battles combined.

Water Deity, who was well versed in defense, was proving to be a headache for Xin Wuji. Even though he was possessed by the Day Scorpion Familiar, the amount of power that could be channeled through his body was limited. He was unable to use his powers to completely defeat Water Deity even if he wanted to.

However, as time dragged on, Water Deity seemed to gradually fall behind. After all, no matter how careful one was, there was still a possibility that they might slip up. There was no impenetrable defense in the world. When Water Deity's powers could no longer pose a threat to Xin Wuji, then she would have already lost her chances of winning. Her defeat was just a matter of time.

”I admit defeat.”

The battle lasted for half an hour when Water Deity suddenly withdrew from the challenge ring and admitted defeat. Her figure shimmered, and she returned to the third challenge ring. The long battle had taken up almost half of her inner Qi. If she continued the battle, it would have a great impact on her.

…

”Senior has lost.”

Somewhere in the Divine Dragon Nest, a girl wearing a white dress sighed softly. She was extremely beautiful and was lithe and buxom. She was like a ripe peach. She was none other than Lin Qing, who had been missing for some time.

There were more than ten other girls wearing white dresses by her side. The style of their clothes was the same, and one could identify in a glance that they were from the same sect.

This was where the Goddess Cult was standing.

The girls all looked very young, and each had their own unique characteristics. When they gathered together, they looked like blooming flowers and fought to shine.

”Qing'er, that young man is not simple. Your senior did not lose without putting up a fight. I fear that even I would have to use some tricks to defeat him.”

Beside Lin Qing stood a beautiful woman. She did not seem old and appeared gracious. She felt as if she was not of this world. She was Lin Qing's mistress! Even though the woman looked young, her eyes, unlike the eyes of a young person, showed that she had been through plenty.

There was an odd phenomenon in the Goddess Cult. The higher one's cultivation, the younger one appeared. It did not mean that they were young. In actual fact, Lin Qing's mistress was more than 100 years old. She was old enough to be Mo Wen's grandmother.

The more one cultivated in the Goddess Technique, the more difficult it was to age. It was said that the most powerful elder in the Goddess Sect looked like a teenage girl.

”That Xin Wuji is so powerful. He will probably take first place in this year's Heaven List Tournament.”
