Evil Sword Sovereign King (II)
"The Competition did not specify a rule that a person cannot fight with two other participants, but it requires the two participants to challenge the third party and for all of them to agree, if participant Xiao Chuo agrees to accept another participant to challenge her, after consideration amongst ourselves, this is also permitted."
The Old Lady said slowly with her haggard voice.
"Humph, why need two people? Are you looking down on me? I alone am enough!"
Lin Gong Long said furiously.
Two persons to fight against Valkyrie? That is truly looking down on him, how could he agree to it?
"Don't overextend yourself!" The Blade and Sword Young Lady Xiao Xue laughed and said.
"Stop bullshitting!" He pointed at Valkyrie: "Valkyrie, do you dare or not? If you do not dare, then say it earlier! Why delay our time? Everyone says you are the top of our generation! I do not believe that! Today I want to step on your head, and let everyone know, I, Lin Gong Long am the strongest!"
"F***, so audacious!"
"Is this Lin Gong Long also a seeded participant? From his temper, I think not!"
Some people looked at him in anger and started to criticise him.
But Lin Gong Long ignored them, and directly shouted at Valkyrie.
Finally, the Valkyrie stood up.
She looked quietly at Lin Gong Long, and then shook her head and spoke: "Since you insist on fighting with me alone, then alright, I will fight with you."
"Hehehe, you are finally willing to come out?" Seeing that, Lin Gong Long's angered face finally smoothed out, his eyes filled with excitement: "Once I defeat you, even if I cannot get the first in Mountain River List, it is enough for my name to spread, hahahaha"
Woosh!
Just then, a gust of wind swept past, it was so fast that there were no shadow, in a moment appearing in front of Lin Gong Long.
Lin Gong Long was startled, before he could even see the figure approaching, she was already standing in front of him.
So fast!
Lin Gong Long's mind was startled, the people in the Sacred Palace were also stunned.
"Since you chose to fight, then give it your all, and be merciless!"
Valkyrie said in a soft voice, following that, her small, slender, snow white hand directly slapped on the pointers agreement.
Lin Gong Long was completely stunned, but anxiously regained his senses, then also slapped his hand on the agreement.
Whoosh!
The agreement had a reaction, and formed two light auras that enveloped the two of them.
"The two of you have already chosen the pointers agreement, can the two of you enter the formation!" The old lady said.
Whoosh!
The two of them leaped up and entered the formation.
Lin Gong Long did not waste time talking, he instantly instigated his spirit force that enveloped the spear in his hand, pointed straight at Valkyrie, the long spear released a blue colored Profound Spirit Qi, it was extremely mystical, the sharp power emitting a flavour in the air.
Wild blade Qi.
Valkyrie did not dally either, she stared sternly at Lin Gong Long, her delicate and porcelain like face portrayed a serious look, her thin lips asked softly: "Are you ready?"
"Wahhhh!"
Lin Gong Long bellowed out, suddenly rushing forward, the Wild Blade Qi on his spear transforming into the shape of a python, flowing along the trajectory of the spear towards Valkyrie's heart.
At that moment, Valkyrie took action.
Her figure suddenly flashed, like a lightning bolt, she suddenly appeared beside the spear, her footsteps kept on spinning, as though she was dancing, quickly getting close to Lin Gong Long.
The spear's attacking radius is huge, and not suitable for close combat. Lin Gong Long was unable to react fast enough. He anxiously released the spear, wanting to activate a treasure to dodge Valkyrie, but Valkyrie quickly retrieved a glossy and lustrous green dagger, her shoulder moved, her movements of the highest quality with no blemishes or flaws. She was graceful, yet growing with ferocity, stabbing straight for Lin Gong Long's heart.
That speed, was astonishingly fast! There was not even a shadow produced!
"Ah?"
Lin Long Gong's face become white, a cold breeze went down his spine, facing such a beautiful and perfect attack, he was completely stupefied.
Whooosh!
Suddenly, the dagger transformed into a pair of green gloves, around Valkyrie's delicate and gentle hands, and she directly punched him in the chest.
Bang!
Lin Long Gong's body flew out like a shooting star, crashing on the wall of the absolute domain, releasing a low resounding sound, after that he crashed onto the ground. He stopped moving, without any consciousness. He had obviously fainted.
One move!
And the other party was still being merciful, anyone could see that. If Valkyrie did not change the dagger into gloves, most likely, Lin Long Gong would be rushing to the underworld already.
Even if it was just her fists, it actually smashed Lin Long Gong, causing him to faint instantly!
What kind of strength did that require?
The entire Sacred Palace was silent.
Everyone could hear their own breathing sound.
"Beautiful!" Su Yun could not resist praising her. In a moment, she had roughly estimated the opponent's weakness and relied on this weakness to attack. What surprised him even more, was that her movements were as though she had arranged and planned them out before attacking, thus there were no flaws, no weaknesses! It was perfectly flawless, with no mistakes at all!
The name Valkyrie truly was not used for show!
Whoosh!
The lustrous green gloves disappeared, transforming into a storage ring, set on her long finger. She patted the robes on her body, then walked out of the absolute domain, and walked back to her seat.
"Participant Lin Gong Long has lost, Participant Xiao Chuo will be promoted."
An old man stood up, using his loud and clear voice to shout.
Everyone were jolted back to their senses.
"Heh heh! I told all of you already, you are all not worthy of being opponents to my family's miss, how was it? Now you know what power is?"
Xiao Xue shouted loudly, revealing a pleased look.
No one uttered anything now.
From Valkyrie's display, she truly had the qualifications to fight one against two, maybe even three. Her cultivation might not be the strongest, but her techniques were terrifyingly outstanding, especially her wit, that incomparable sense was something many people were incapable of.
"Alright, the first round has already ended, which other participant wants to challenge? If there are no challenges, then we will begin the roll call."
The old lady stood up and said.
But no one replied for a long time.
She turned and nodded at the other elders, who all raised their old palms high up into the air.
Four light auras shot out from their fingertips, gathering at the space in front of them that transformed into a gold chart. Not long after, the gold chart began to congeal two light beams that flew around the Sacred Palace, it spun around inside the Sacred Palace for a while, and then landed on two participants.
"This is the Mystical Gold Spirit, it will randomly pick out two participants to engage in a duel. Now, can Participant "Chen San Xiang", and Participant "Zhang Mu Yang" come up to choose your agreement and then begin the contest, the winner will be promoted, while the loser will leave the place."
Whoosh.
The two participants that were called out immediately jumped out and landed in front of the agreements. The two of them did not know each other, and chose the pointers agreement, then stepped into the absolute domain to compete.
They were two selection competition participants. They immediately started fighting inside the domain, using various mystical techniques and treasures, causing spirit force to fly everywhere inside the absolute domain.
Just that, although the two were fighting intensely, the majority of the spectators who were watching were mostly the selection competition participants, the seeded participants, every single one of them, had their eyes closed while meditating, harmonizing their own breathing.
If the people who fought their way into the dragon group selection competition are called geniuses, then the seeded participants are geniuses of the geniuses, and to them, these geniuses were just like ordinary cultivators.
"Seems like this time, the Mountain River List will not be as easy as I thought."
Su Yun lightly tapped on Death Sword beside him, an unswerving determination sweeping past his eyes.
Bang!
Just then, a loud sound came out from the spirit domain, someone flew out, spitting three mouthful of blood, followed by fainting.
"I appreciate that you let me win!" The other person cupped his fists and bowed, shouting loudly.
All the selection competition participants all clapped their hands and praised them
Outside of Qin Creek, on the tall peak.
Prince Fu Su who was dressed in exquisite robes sat cross legged on a boulder, his eyes looking far out.
"Has the competition started?"
Blood Noble dressed in his blood red cape, walked over from behind him. He raised his head and revealed his demonic smile.
"It has begun." Prince Fu Su stood up and bowed to Blood Noble.
"The two ladies have managed to mix in?"
"Master's treasure is truly extraordinary, even the Qin Creek's formation is unable to find the demonic force in them, I am convinced!"
Fu Su immediately said.
"Heh, if I cannot even do this, then how can I be a demon!"
"Noble is brilliant."
"It cannot be considered a brilliant idea." Blood Noble laughed, then patted Prince Fu Su's shoulder and said: "For so many years, to have you infiltrate the Sky Martial Continent; we truly have wronged you. Hehe, I'm afraid for their entire lives, the Su Family people will never guess that the absolute genius Prince Fu Su that they always respect and revere, is a Demonic Qi Cultivator. No one can replace your position in the Su Family now, and when the time is ripe, after you are done with this, you will go back to Su Family and take control of Su Family matters. Although the Su Family is not considered a big family, it has a deep connection with Profound Sky Sect and the other sects. With these as our foundation, the plans in the future will be much easier."
Fu Su cupped his fists again, but did not say anything.
Blood Noble laughed, a shrewd look flashing past his eyes.
"You have something on your mind?"
Fu Su bit his lower lip and nodded.
"What is it?"
"Why must we collaborate with the Spirit Demon Dao?"
"Because we share a common enemy!"
"Who is that?"
"Even if I told you now, it is useless."
Blood Noble shook his head, and turned to walk towards the group of spirit demons.
"Now, the Spirit Demon Dao are suffering under their threat. It can be Spirit Demon Dao now, and maybe in the short run, it will be our turn."
When Fu Su heard that, his eyes moved, but he kept his thoughts to himself.
Boom!
A loud sound resounded. Inside the absolute domain, a person's chest was pierced through, he fell to the ground, after struggling for a few seconds, his eyes still exposing his unhappiness, but his wounds were too severe, and he was unable to battle.
The old lady stood up and announced the result.
"The competition is over, Participant 'Liu Hong Shi' will be promoted."
With that said, the number on Liu Hong Shi's gold order badge changed, becoming 17, meaning that he was already the 17th on the Mountain RIver List.
A few cultivators rushed inside the absolute domain and carried out the other participant for treatment.
The old lady bellowed once again.
"Now, the next match will begin soon. If there are any participants that want to challenge any one else, please report the challenger's name for the agreement. If no one challenges anyone, this old one will continue with the roll call."
These words came out for a few times, but no one made a sound. The Sacred Palace was extremely quiet.
Seems like the roll call will continue.
Suddenly.
Woosh!
A figure jumped out and landed in front of the old lady. Holding his gold order badge, he raised it up high.
The people inside the Sacred Palace all took a deep breath and looked over.
"Participant Lei Tian Dong, which participant do you want to challenge?" The old Lady's muddy eyes looked at him as she asked.
"Wu Yun!" Lei Dong Tian turned his head and bellowed, his eyes like swords, staring at the man dressed in the pitch black blademaster robes with a white mask.
That man raised his head, his abyss-like eyes staring straight at Lei Tian Dong.
Without saying a word, he took his strange long black sword, stood up. He walked forward while strapping the large sword sheath.
It was another selection competition participant's duel.
Seeing them, the seeded participants all secretly shook their head and closed their eyes.
But many meticulous people were surprised to realize that, Valkyrie who was seated down, had opened her bright eyes, staring straight at Wu Yun without blinking.
