Chapter 268: Battling Tang Yu-er!

Translator: celefoata_Editor: RegiusProfessor

As expected, yet also a complete surprise.

Tian Yu, Tang Yu-er, and Ye Yuan entered the final four, while Luo Chengfeng was tragically eliminated, blocked outside the final four.

It was expected because Tian Yu and Tang Yu-er entering the final four was within reason.

But it was a surprise because before this grand competition, nobody would have thought that No. 52 could actually charge into the final four!

The other person who made it into the final four was called Sui Liang, precisely the other one the two half-step Crystal Formation Realms.

The face-off for the semi-finals was already out. Ye Yuan versus Tang Yu-er, and Tian Yu versus Sui Liang!

There was basically no suspense for Tian Yu versus Sui Liang. Tang Yu-er and Ye Yuan's match clearly became everyone's focal point.

Ye Yuan overcame all the obstacles along the way, and even Luo Chengfeng fell to him. This made the originally lifeless sect grand competition suddenly became lively.

Everybody wanted to see what step Ye Yuan could walk to!

Although Ye Yuan defeating Luo Chengfeng in the previous battle made everyone's glasses fall off, everybody could sense that Ye Yuan's fight with Luo Chengfeng was not as easy as with Zhang Jing.

And Tang Yu-er's strength was not because Luo Chengfeng did not use his weapon!

Everyone knew that even if Luo Chengfeng used his weapon, the result would also be the same!

Hence, Ye Yuan and Tang Yu-er's match was even more anticipated than with Tian Yu.

Tian Yu used the sword. Whether he could gain any advantages in a battle against Ye Yuan was another matter altogether. But Tang Yu-er did not use a sword. If Ye Yuan could even beat Tang Yu-er, he would only be a step away from number one.

Yes, at the semi-finals, Tian Yu did not seem too promising instead!

Not because he wasn't strong enough, but because he used swords!

Tian Yu was strong because of his sword. But facing Ye Yuan, his sword became his greatest shortcoming instead!

The semi-finals were about to commence. Ye Yuan and Tang Yu-er's platform was already surrounded until not even water could flow through!

”Quickly look! Isn't that Senior Apprentice Brother Ti Wujiu? There's also Senior Apprentice Brother Cheng Wu and the rest! The elite disciples actually came to watch Ye Yuan's match too!”

”What's so strange about that? The elite disciples' matches have already ended. Senior Apprentice Brother Ti Wujiu won rank one without any contest! And Senior Apprentice Brother Cheng Wu is third from the bottom. He will be competing with our core disciples' number one. Coming to check on his opponent's strength is something very natural.”

”Then why did Senior Apprentice Brother Ti Wujiu come over?”

”Hehe, with Ye Yuan's degree of monstrousness, he'll most probably cause a threat to Senior Apprentice Brother Ti Wujiu before long. Isn't it very normal for him to come and take a look at his future adversary? I reckon that the number of elite disciples who came to watch the match is not small!”

The elite disciples' grand competition was already all finished at this time.

Ti Wujiu became the number one elite disciple uncontestably with the battle result of 19 complete victories!

But Cheng Wu ultimately could not shake off the bottom three rankings. According to the sect rules, he would have to undergo a final match with the number one core disciple to determine who stays and leaves.

Hence, it was very crucial to Cheng Wu who obtains rank one.

”Senior Apprentice Brother Wujiu, who do you think can obtain rank one?” Cheng Wu asked rather flusteredly.

Ti Wujiu shook his head however and said, ”It has already been a very long time since the previous grand competition. Tian Yu and Tang Yu-er both made significant progress. But as for how much they improved, nobody knows. Moreover, there's even a Ye Yuan who popped out this time. Whose hands the number one lands in is really still an unknown.”

Cheng Wu's eyes lit up as he said with a smile, ”Do you think Ye Yuan can beat both Tang Yu-er and Tian Yu? Heh heh, if he can get number one, then that would be great!”
