739 Idiots Must Die! (1/2)
As the most important event in the past hundred years in Nine Regions, in less than a year, the Grand Competition had spawned many duels destined to be recorded in history.
During the opening match, there were Xuan Mo's Yin and Yang Divide and Daoist He Tu's Yin and Yang Embodiment. Later, when the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals was in an unfavorable situation, Wang Lu planned an amazing comeback. These were all classic battles that were well-known and memorable to countless people.
However, compared with today's big match, the previous battles seemed insignificant.
In many people's eyes, perhaps in the next few hundred years, there would be no more such a dramatic fight in Nine Regions. To some extent, this match would rewrite the history of Nine Regions.
When Zhu Shiyao stepped on the stage to fight against Senior Gem Emperor, everyone thought that it was a hopeless fight. However, after the fight, it quickly ushered in an unexpected major turning point.
Zhu Shiyao launched a sword strike, and Senior Gem Emperor disappeared.
During the whole time, it took to finish a cup of tea, the entire Central Arena was deathly quiet. Zhu Shiyao put on her heavy glasses and expanded the power of the Stellar Eyes to the limit. Within the audience, people couldn't help but also help Zhu Shiyao find her opponent.
After no one knows how long, someone finally asked a question.
\”Wouldn't this mean that we win?\”
This was, of course, an incredible conjecture. Many people wanted to laugh when they heard about it.
However, the next moment, the person who spoke presented a piece of evidence that could not be ignored.
\”Because those Earth Immortals don't look right.\”
People immediately turned their attention to the Earth Immortals sitting on the rostrum. Sure enough, the Earth Immortals who came out to watch the fight looked very serious!
Before this, no matter how big a scene appeared in the arena, they remained indifferent and never doubted their leader. But now, they showed hesitation, confusion, and even panic.
Therefore, the people of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals began to realize gradually that perhaps Senior Gem Emperor might not come back.
No matter what the reason was, according to the rules of the competition, when a party failed to respond to the fight for a long time, it would be judged as a passive match and counted as a loss. And now, the countdown for the passive match was getting smaller and smaller while Senior Gem Emperor still hadn't appeared.
As a result, more and more people heard the news and prepared to witness this historic scene.
It seemed that the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals finally saw the dawn of victory in the Grand Competition.
Although the victory of this match was rather baffling, a win is a win. According to the words previously said by Senior Gem Emperor, as long as the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals could win her in any match, she would admit defeat on behalf of the Earth Immortals camp. However, in the past month, people had been used to seeing all heroes of the Union of Ten Thousand Immortals fell into pieces in this competition arena. Those peerless masters who used to be aloof and excelled in the past couldn't even win a single victory.
However, after this match, perhaps people would soon see Senior Gem Emperor bow her head. As long as people thought of that scene, many people became excited with passion. Many even couldn't help but cheer in the audience. This kind of emotion spread rapidly so that the audience soon began to hear songs about Zhu Shiyao made and performed by the cultivators themselves.
In their opinion, this indifferent and low-key Elder Sister of Spirit Sword Sect was, at this time, more lovely than anyone in the world!
However, at this time, Zhu Shiyao let out a sentence.
One sentence destined to be recorded in history, and would be remembered by countless people for their entire lives.
\”I… give up.\”
No one could accurately describe the mood of people in the audience at that moment. From the fiery volcanic crater to the cold howling wind and snowfield, this change happened perhaps in no more than one-thousandth of breath's time.
\”What did she just say?\”
On the rostrum, the Red Robed Elder opened his eyes wide and kept pulling his ears with his hands, as if he couldn't believe what he heard.
Zhu Shiyao, who had already won the victory, said that she had given up.
What was wrong with her? Could it be that Senior Gem Emperor abandoned her royal dignity and began to quietly control Zhu Shiyao's wit with some secret evil means so that she would admit defeat?
That's impossible! With the power of Senior Gem Emperor, she could destroy Zhu Shiyao just by breathing, why would she do it sneakily?
This could only mean that Zhu Shiyao made her own decision!
The two Supremes on Red Robed Elder's sides were also shocked that they almost dislocated their chin.
The next moment, one of them, who was from the Royal Soldier Sect and who pursued the decisive way of attack, suddenly slapped his jaw back, which made a clicking noise! Then he shouted, \”Contact the Elder of Spirit Sword Sect at once! Tell them to come quickly to discipline their traitor!\”
However, no matter how quick this Supreme react, it was still too late.
In the arena, Zhu Shiyao carefully put away her glasses and shook her head in frustration. The next moment, she took a step out of the arena.
When this step was taken, there was no room for turning back.
Many sighed with anger, which then weaved into a sea of disappointment in an instant. Several grumpy cultivators even showed murderous looks toward Zhu Shiyao, ready to question her intention.
However, before these people arrived, someone came first.
Daoist Master Feng Yin cut through the void and came to the City of Immortals from an untold distance and stood beside Zhu Shiyao.
