Chapter 877 Simultaneously Reaching the Summi (2/2)

Lu Xiao’s pupils also abruptly shrank. He knew that this was Zhou Yuan’s last attack. He frantically activated the Genesis Qi within his body, and the purple qi around him became increasingly intense. A shadow formed at his feet and his figure sped up towards the summit.

Countless gazes were fixed on the two crazy figures, and cheers rang out like a tsunami. As for Han Yuan and Mu Liu, very few people paid any attention to them. It was clear that they had both became background characters.

The purple and azure qi whizzed, and the distance between the two men constantly shortened.

Fifty steps, thirty steps, ten steps.

And when the two were only ten steps away from each other, the mountain summit was already less than a dozen feet away.

Lu Xiao even seemed to be able to hear the whistling wind, which seemed to make him increasingly annoyed. But at this moment, he had already activated his Genesis Qi to its peak and his speed had reached its limit.

He peered ahead. The summit of the mountain was getting closer and closer, and within a few breaths, he would reach the mountain summit!

As long as he was the first to step onto the top, Zhou Yuan’s effort would all be in vain!

After three seconds, Zhou Yuan's figure was only two steps behind Lu Xiao!

The cheering noises in the outside world almost froze. Everybody stared unblinkingly at the two figures and held their breath. No one thought that the compet.i.tion to climb the ladder first would be so thrilling!

After another second!

Lu Xiao stepped out, finally reaching the last step of the ladder.

At that moment, the purple qi pulsing around Lu Xiao’s body dissipated, and his tensed-up body relaxed, but he found that his back was drenched in cold sweat. He immediately became annoyed. How could he be forced to such an embarra.s.sing state?!

Fortunately, he had climbed to the summit first, hadn’t he?

When he suddenly felt that the outside world seemed to have turned a little quiet, Lu Xiao drew a deep breath. His brows wrinkled slightly, and an uneasy feeling rose in his heart.

In the void, the five grand elders were also watching this scene. Then, they retracted their gazes. Given their ability, they naturally knew the result during that split second.

Sect master Xuan Kun’s face was cold as water, while Chi Jing’s expression was calm.

The two didn’t utter a word, so clan elder Mu Ni ran her eyes across the crowd, and a soft voice rang out.

“This round, Lu Xiao and Zhou Yuan reached the top at the same time!”

An earthshaking uproar broke out. Countless people couldn’t help but gasp in amazement. Although there wasn’t any intent to attack during the ladder round, it was still an incredibly thrilling compet.i.tion.

Moreover, what shocked them the most was that Lu Xiao didn't dominate the round!

Instead, in the end, Zhou Yuan had s.n.a.t.c.hed half of first place!

For someone with Lu Xiao’s fame, the outcome of a tie was more like a weak defeat. After all, before this event, everyone thought that Lu Xiao would achieve certain victory.

There were countless cheers from the outside world.

On the mist-shrouded mountaintop, Lu Xiao's face was ashen because he knew very well that if he didn't completely win, it was a failure. And he had to share the victory?!

It was an insult to the proud Lu Xiao!

He had to share the glory with Zhou Yuan, whom he didn’t even bother to glance at once before?! What qualification did Zhou Yuan have!

“That Zhou Yuan!”

Lu Xiao hissed through gritted teeth, but in the end he calmed the fury in his heart because he knew that the chief pavilion master battle had only begun!

And if he wanted to wash away this failure, it was very simple. As long as he won the position of chief pavilion master, all the glory would still fall upon him again.

This time he was going to make Zhou Yuan understand who the strongest person of the Divine Dwelling stage in the Tianyuan Region was!
