Zheng Wen had been beaten to a pulp by him. Several of his bones had been broken. He wouldn't be able to get out of his bed for a short period of time!

Therefore, there was no part for him in this arena battle.

Of course, in order to ensure the highest level of the contestants, the higher-ups of the dojo did not let the peak Hou Tian warrior who had won the preliminaries participate in the competition. Instead, they let Liu Ming participate.

Regarding this result, there were no objections from the dojo.

The competition had begun. The first person to stand on the stage was none of the five forces.

It was the people from the Ten Directions Inn, the manager of the Ten Directions Inn.

From the looks of it, this person's first impression was definitely astute! The chubby little face and eyes that were almost squished out of sight by the fat on his face looked very happy. However, the hint of a smile that would occasionally appear on the corners of his mouth made people subconsciously want to stay away.

"Today, I am extremely honored to be the host of the five powers' joint arena competition. I am very happy." Wan Chao Sheng said with a smile on his face.

Hearing this, Dugu Yifeng, who was originally quite interested in watching, suddenly felt a wave of cold from the bottom of his heart.

The heck, could it be that I'll have to show some gratitude to my parents, master and mother, as well as so many others who don't know anything?

Dugu Yifeng felt depressed in his heart. Thankfully, the thing he was worried about did not happen.

Wanshui was also a smart guy, he knew that he was not the one at home this time. Thus, after giving them a simple look at their faces, they happily announced the official start of the competition.

However, the entire scene fell into an awkward silence because no one was going to take the field anymore.

The first person to eat the crab could not be very calm.

Seeing this situation, Dugu Yifeng's heart stirred and he immediately stepped forward, ready to go onstage.

However, at this time, he had already taken a step forward.

He turned his head to the side and a trace of surprise could not help but appear on his calm face.

It was Hao Zhan. Dugu Yifeng didn't understand this, but he was a very interested person, so he went up.

"Interesting," Dugu Yifeng's smile blossomed as he drew back, thinking to himself.

"Brother, you sure are courageous. I am Bing Chuan, I am here to accompany you!" Just as Hao Zhan stepped onto the stage, Dugu Yifeng noticed a figure and immediately went up onto the stage as well.

Dugu Yifeng recognized this man. In the past few days, he, Hao Zhan, Liu Ming, and the others had already understood the situation of the other four squads of twelve.

Ice Hammer!

A core disciple of the Ice and Snow Palace who was at the peak of the first level of the Sky Realm. It was said that he could fight against a second level Sky Realm expert without losing.

As soon as Ice Hammer stepped onto the stage, his simple and honest face and his previous words caused the martial artists below the stage to have a favorable impression of him.

Dugu Yifeng had a good impression of him. This person gave him a feeling that was similar to Han Xi's personality.

In the Ice and Snow Palace, Dugu Yifeng remembered that this was the Ice and Snow Divine Kingdom's Heavenly Imperial Guardian Sect and also Xue Xian`er's subordinate forces.

Very soon, the two of them first cupped their fists in respect before immediately moving forward and retreating backwards.

The stage was very large, so the two of them were able to move about freely.

As they were all at the first level of the Sky Realm, the warriors below the stage were all discussing who had the better chance of winning.

There were even some martial artists who bet on who would win.

Many of the warriors were betting on the ice hammer. It was just that it was two meters tall and a hammer that was as big as his head. It looked very frightening.

Dugu Yifeng was the exception. He was more optimistic about Hao Zhan because he couldn't see through him.

From the start of the preliminaries until now, Dugu Yifeng had never even seen Hao Zhan take action. Thus, he had no way to control his strength.

Only the first level of the Heavenly Realm was a lie to the top geniuses.

While everyone was still discussing, the battle had already begun.

Because of the huge hammer on his back, his movements were slightly inconvenient, so the ice hammer took the initiative to pounce towards Hao Zhan, wanting to force him into a corner of the stage.

Then, he would take advantage of this advantage and attack it.

However, Hao Zhan wasn't an idiot and was able to see through his thoughts with a single glance.

Naturally, he had also relied on his speed advantage, which was that he had used up a bit of the ice hammer's stamina first.

Below the martial stage, a stick of incense was quietly burning.

Every match had a time limit. In an incense's time, if no victor was determined, the arena battle would be considered a draw.

This was one of the rules set by the leaders of the five forces. If two people of equal strength were to clash with each other and continue fighting like this, then it would take a day and night before the outcome was decided.

Naturally, the upper echelons of the five forces would not allow this kind of thing to happen.

The incense stick burned quickly. In the blink of an eye, only half an incense stick of time remained.

The fight between the two had finally ended and they began to fight.

At this moment, Dugu Yifeng finally saw Hao Zhan's weapon.

A knife, a very small knife, a throwing knife!

The appearance of the flowing light shocked almost everyone present!

The two of them were originally entangled with each other. However, the moment they parted, Hao Zhan immediately threw out a flying knife.

The throwing knives were so fast that the ice hammer was simply unable to dodge. The ice hammer only had enough time to lift its huge hammer to block once.

Even so, he was still unable to completely dodge the attack. His right hand that was holding the giant hammer was still bleeding from the curved flying knife.

Blood dripped from his finger, and Ice Hammer did not care about that because another throwing knife was already flying towards him.

He waved his arm and raised the sledgehammer high in the air.

After he had decided on the path to the flying knife, he prepared to ruthlessly smash the flying knife into the ground when the flying knife approached him.

However, what made all the martial artists present scream happened.

The flying daggers that were flying in the air had actually been cut into nine pieces!

Each throwing knife rolled in the air and shot parallel to the ice hammer.

Seeing this scene, even the honest looking Ice Hammer could not help but curse!

The throwing daggers that had come to avoid the incoming attack had been forced to the edge of the arena.

This time, there was no place to dodge!

He had no choice but to step back and jump off the martial stage.

With an indignant expression on his face, Ice Hammer looked at Hao Zhan with a resentful expression. His appearance was like a wife who had been taken advantage of, causing the surrounding martial artists to laugh out loud.

Hao Zhan won, he won easily.

He didn't even give the ice hammer any time or space to unleash any of his advantages.

To Hao Zhan, the speed at which he could reach the peak, combined with the speed of his flying daggers, was an absolute advantage.

Almost everyone was attracted by the resentful expression of the ice hammer. On the other hand, Dugu Yifeng was looking at Hao Zhan alone.

"So his weapon was a throwing knife. How unexpected. I was wondering where did he put his weapon?" Dugu Yifeng whispered.

For some reason, he always felt it in his heart. This Hao Zhan seemed to be extremely familiar with this place. He had a connection with this person.
