C50 Archaeopterygium

Six hours later, the second round of the competition had already ended. The top ten of the ranking tournament had all been decided, and they were now the focus of everyone's attention.

Everyone looked at these ten people with envious eyes. Even if the other nine people did not become core disciples, they were still stunning. The inner disciples were the center of attention as they enjoyed the best cultivation resources.

After the second round of the competition ended, Qin Yi announced that the champion would begin tomorrow and get free from the competition. At that time, the champion would directly advance to a core disciple.

Without a doubt, tomorrow's match was the main event, and all the inner court disciples' eyes were filled with fervor and anticipation.

After the competition ended, Xiao Mu went straight back to his room.

In a flash, a fragrant wind blew and Dai Jin's arrival seemed to bring light to this place.

Xiao Mu was surprised: "Senior Sister Dai Jin, what business do you have here?"

Dai Jin's beautiful eyes stared at Xiao Mu for more than ten seconds, causing Xiao Mu to feel uncomfortable all over. It was the first time in all these years that she had received such a beautiful woman's gaze.

Fortunately, Dai Jin retracted her gaze, and said with an indifferent voice, as if it was a heavenly sound, "Have you really broken through Fighter 4-dan?"

"It's the real deal!" Xiao Mu said indifferently.

Ripples appeared in Dai Jin's eyes. As she took a step forward, a light and elegant fragrance entered her nose and mouth, causing him to be unable to help her heart from swaying and her mind to be moved. Even Dai Jin did not notice that the distance between the two was too close.

"Be careful of Hua Bairong in the competition tomorrow."

When the beautiful woman left, a light voice floated beside Xiao Mu's ears. Be careful of Hua Bairong ? What the hell is going on here?

The next day, the sky had just turned white as a ray of golden sunlight broke through the thin clouds. The inner court disciples had already finished washing up and were heading to the central plaza, waiting for the battle for the first place.

The ten great core disciples, Flowing Moon Sect, Zhao Wentuo and Qin Yi, the two who held high positions in the inner sect were also waiting here.

Xiao Mu and the rest were all dressed neatly, with the intent to take action. Everyone was separated by a distance, with a look of dread on their faces.

Soon, the list of contestants for the first match was out.

Xiao Mu against Gu Sangui!

This result stunned Xiao Mu, causing him to lower his head in shock, excited beyond belief. They were overjoyed that it was Gu Sangui, the candidate who shouted the loudest to be a core disciple from the start.

As for Xiao Mu, other than Ye Fei who was there to cheer him on, there was no one else.

No one thought highly of Xiao Mu. To be able to fight his way into the top ten, in their opinion, was already a high honor.

"Heh heh, I started off with Gu Sangui the moment I started. Xiao Mu, this dark horse, has also reached his end."

"However, for him to be able to become one of the top ten in Inner Gate Ranking Competition, that's enough for him to be proud of in the future!"

Amidst the discussions, Dai Jin frowned, something seemed to be amiss. According to the usual practice, once a dark horse attacked its way into the top ten, the sect, in order to continue to exploit its potential, would not face a seeded Gu Sangui as soon as he arrived.

"Who arranged this duel?" Flowing Moon Sect also noticed the change and asked an elder beside him in a light voice.

"It's the Deacon Zhao." The elder replied.

Dai Jin's eyes looked at Zhao Wentuo, only to see that his old eyes were staring straight at Xiao Mu, a bit impatient, as though waiting to confirm some kind of conclusion.

Dai Jin was startled, could it be that Zhao Wentuo had already sensed something?

On the stage, Xiao Mu and Gu Sangui stepped onto the stage. Both of them emitted a tyrannical wave of spirit energy, clashing with each other.

One of them was dressed in black, his eyes were as bright as the stars, and his heroic spirit was limitless.

One of them wore a white robe with a cold aura and carried a Light Sword on his back, like an ancient sword immortal.

Gu Sangui said with disdain: "I'm giving you a chance to unleash my sword, if not once I unleash my sword, you won't have a chance."

"Are you sure?" Xiao Mu was not angered by the look of contempt, he only laughed indifferently.

"Bring it on!" Gu Sangui said.

As soon as he spoke, his pupils suddenly constricted.

stage, a blazing sword qi suddenly rose! The dazzling sword light shot out an aura that was like a dried up twig. It came crushing down, and in an instant, the clouds scattered and the wind corroded!

Xiao Mu's figure instantly disappeared from the spot. When he appeared again, the Dragon Mark Black Gold Sword was already three inches away from Gu Sangui's neck.

BOOM!

Suddenly, there was an explosion.

Gu Sangui's face revealed shock, the Light Sword was unsheathed and swept past the Dragon Mark Black Gold Sword.

Tap, tap, tap!

He took three steps back, leaving behind three deep footprints.

The contempt in Gu Sangui's eyes disappeared and was replaced by a resplendent light.

"Xiao Mu, I have underestimated you, in this battle, you are worth it for me to use my sword!" Gu Sangui's aura was extremely cold, like a divine weapon being unsheathed, on the verge of releasing a world shocking blade light.

The moment the Light Sword was swung, the spirit energy on Gu Sangui's body rose sharply as a sword aura as thin as a cicada's wing gushed out.

In an instant, cracks appeared on the ground of the stage, and countless stones were shot out. The moment the Sword Qi swept over, Xiao Mu's eyes blossomed with light.

Clang!

Amidst the clear sword chimes, a sword wave suddenly exploded out.

Xiao Mu was the first to bear the brunt of the attack, he only felt a tyrannical force sweep past him, causing him to be pushed back five to six steps. On the other hand, instead of retreating, Gu Sangui advanced and thrusted straight for Xiao Mu's heart.

As if he was a sword immortal reincarnating, he unleashed a terrifying sword qi that tore apart Xiao Mu's protective spiritual energy and pierced into Xiao Mu's flesh.

A trace of blood leaked out.

However, Gu Sangui's expression suddenly changed. The sword that he stabbed into Xiao Mu's flesh, only, it only moved forward by less than an inch, as if it had stabbed into a piece of divine iron, and could not move at all.

What a terrifying body!

Was Xiao Mu a humanoid beast with thick skin and skin?

Suddenly, Gu Sangui's heart fiercely shook. Xiao Mu raised his right palm and hacked down ruthlessly, as a terrifying aura that could split mountains and split the seas burst out of him. This palm strike gave him a sense of danger.

The Mountain Splitting Palm descended!

Gu Sangui's reaction was fast to the point where he retracted his Light Sword. Half of his body was a step too slow, and his left shoulder had suffered a terrifying stomp, as though it had been crushed by a divine weapon, and was releasing a terrifying sharp light.

With a "ka ka" sound, his left shoulder blade broke. His left hand drooped down powerlessly, and a stream of blood flowed out from his sleeve. It fell onto the ground, shocking the crowd of inner disciples.

What was going on?

The situation that Gu Sangui should have been in was suddenly reversed, and his arm was crippled by Xiao Mu.

Outside of the arena, Mu Tianye who was calm and composed was shocked. When he looked at Xiao Mu, his eyes flashed with an unknown light.

Hua Bairong's beautiful eyes also slightly opened, as her beautiful face revealed a look of shock.

Gripping the Light Sword tightly in his right hand, Gu Sangui's indifferent eyes revealed the sound of the setting sun exploding. His expression turned sinister as he said: "Xiao Mu, you injured one of my hands. "Next, you will understand what true terror is!"

"I can defeat you with one hand!"

As the sound of his voice faded, the Spirit Qi on Gu Sangui's body rose steadily. In mid air, a gust of wind blew past, blocking Xiao Mu's line of sight.
