C178 Slaughter!(1)

Woo Zhengyang's speed and combat prowess far surpass the level of a Nine-star Martial Disciple. Not long ago, he single-handedly defeated a well-armed five-person team. Now, with four others by his side, their combined strength is even more formidable. The five-person team they targeted was no match and was ultimately defeated by Zhengyang and his group.

This team had held out for a long time, having taken down hundreds before. The swordsman who finished them off significantly boosted the power of Woo Zhengyang's No Life Sword, adding over a hundred units to its strength. The rest of the group also gained substantial benefits.

After this initial victory, Woo Zhengyang remained composed, while the other four were thrilled. The rewards from this battle almost matched what they had achieved in half an hour of previous fighting.

No Life Square is the final battleground, where more fighters and teams continually arrive, getting caught up in the chaos or meeting their end. Two hours into this deadly game, no one else was coming; all Martial Disciples had gathered here.

At this point, No Life Square was filled with five-person teams, each member's hands stained with blood, including Zhengyang's group. By now, the power of Woo Zhengyang's No Life Sword had increased to over a thousand units, making up a tenth of the sword's full potential.

Based on Woo Zhengyang's assessment, the No Life Sword in his hand had surpassed the quality of a treasured longsword and was likely even more formidable than a basic spiritual sword. The No Life weapons of the other four individuals also improved rapidly, especially the No Life Hammer and No Life Bow. Since fewer people chose these, breaking through was easier. However, Woo Zhengyang knew that by the end of this battle, the No Life Sword should emerge as the highest-ranked among the five weapons. This was because most of the martial disciples brought here had chosen the longsword, with the largest group being martial disciples, and only a few Shape Gathering Stage practitioners.

Initially, the No Life Sword was the weakest, but collectively, it was unmatched by the other weapons. According to Woo Zhengyang's calculations, around seven to eight thousand martial disciples chose the No Life Sword. After the first battle, the sword's fusion would reach about seventy to eighty percent, and by the end of the second battle, it would be nearly complete. This presented an opportunity for Woo Zhengyang.

By the end of the first battle, his No Life Sword could potentially reach the level of a superior spiritual weapon. Combined with his various skills, he should be able to hold his own against the powerful martial masters of the Reality Condensing Stage.

If Woo Zhengyang can endure the second round of battle, he will wield an almost complete No Life Sword, a weapon of considerable power, possibly even a king-level sword. The true might of a king-level sword is beyond Zhengyang's estimation, but it would certainly be something even experts at the Shape Gathering Stage would tread carefully around.

Of course, holding a king-level sword comes with its own set of pros and cons, potentially leading Zhengyang into a situation with no return. But at this moment, Zhengyang has no other choice but to fight to the end!

In No Life Square, there were no longer any lone warriors or incomplete teams, making the battles less chaotic. Almost every team had claimed a territory, engaging in one-on-one combat. Another hour passed, and only about twenty teams remained in No Life Square.

Most team members had been swapped in and out, but Zhengyang noticed that apart from his own team, there were six others whose members hadn't changed at all. These six teams were remarkably cohesive. Two were composed of outer disciples from the Heavenly Martial Academy, while the remaining four included two teams from the Fallen Sun Sect, and one each from the Fallen Moon Sect and the Fallen Star Sect.

The archer in Zhengyang's team happened to be a disciple of the Fallen Star Sect. Through her, the team learned that these six teams consisted of elite disciples from the four major powers. After another half hour, the vast No Life Square began to feel empty, even quiet.

At this moment, only seven teams remained standing in the No Life Square. Six of these were composed of elite disciples from the four major factions, while Woo Zhengyang's team was notably more diverse.

After extensive observation, everyone had gained an understanding of each team's combat strength. Woo Zhengyang alone was as powerful as an entire team, and with the addition of his four teammates, their combined strength surpassed that of the other six teams.

As the No Life Square narrowed down to the final seven teams, subtle shifts occurred among the groups. Two teams from the Heavenly Martial Academy joined forces, as did two from the Fallen Sun Sect. Even the teams from the Fallen Moon Sect and Fallen Star Sect temporarily allied. Yet, Woo Zhengyang's team continued to stand alone, undeterred and independent.
