In half a day's time, the top two disciples in each group had been decided. The previous batch of disciples who had entered the sect was stronger than Zhao Kui's group in terms of training, which was why their strength was obviously stronger than Zhao Kui's group. Nine out of the fourteen disciples that had entered the sect previously were Zhao Kui and Hu Xing.

In addition, Zhang Zhi entered the next round as the second member of his group, the first person on Zhang Zhi Group was a person called Cao Yuan, who was the most powerful disciple among the disciples who had previously entered the sect. He had already advanced to the Houtian fourth stage for a period of time, and his strength was not weak.

The disciples with Zhao Kui and Xu You and Tang Wu were also present. Their original strength was not bad, and since they did not meet any powerful opponents, they were able to enter the next round as well.

Zhao Kui, Hu Xing, and Zhang Zhi were all in different groups, while Zhao Kui and Cao Yuan were in different groups. Zhao Kui, Hu Xing, and Zhang Zhi were all in different groups, while Zhao Kui and Cao Yuan were in different groups.

In his heart, he felt that he was definitely not a match for Zhao Kui. Moreover, Zhao Kui was already at the fifth stage of the Houtian realm, which made him have no choice but to treat him seriously. Although he was eager to be number one, he knew that his hopes were slim, and in his heart, he did not want to give up so easily.

The competition had already begun, but no one had gone up in the previous few days. The two people in the same group as Zhao Kui and Cao Yuan had given up this opportunity to compete. Neither Zhao Kui nor Cao Yuan was a match for the two of them, so they did not go up on stage to make a fool of themselves.

"Junior brother Zhao, since everyone is watching here and the two of them have already given the stage to the two of us, let's not wait any longer. Let's spar for a bit and hope that Junior brother Zhao will show mercy!" Cao Yuan's words were sincere without the slightest hint of affectation.

Zhao Kui nodded and said, "Sure, please, Brother Cao." Cao Yuan did not think much of Zhao Kui's arrogance. With Zhao Kui's strength, he had the qualifications to do so.

This guy is too arrogant, Senior Brother Cao is strong. Although this Zhao Kui defeated Senior Brother Yang Qiu, Senior Brother Cao Yuan's strength is one level higher than Senior Brother Yang Qiu's. In my opinion, the two of them are only around the same strength. Cao Yuan's supporters were dissatisfied with Zhao Kui's words and actions and felt that Zhao Kui was too self-righteous.

"Humph!" "Your senior brother Yang Qiu was beaten up like a dead dog by Boss Zhao Kui, with no power to fight back. So what if your senior brother Cao Yuan is stronger than Yang Qiu? Isn't he still losing to our Boss Zhao?" When Zhao Kui's supporters heard this, they immediately refuted.

"Nonsense, senior brother Cao Yuan is definitely number one. You just wait and see!"

"Alright, we'll see. Don't make that senior brother, Cao Yuan, look like a dead dog in Yang Qiu and get beaten up so badly that even his parents won't recognize him!"

Cao Yuan's supporters could not retort and could only gasp for air as they stared blankly.

"Be careful, Junior Brother Zhao Kui!" His right hand took the shape of a tiger claw as it clawed towards Zhao Kui's chest, while his left hand formed a fist, ready to attack Zhao Kui at any moment. Zhao Kui's eyes focused, although Cao Yuan could only learn martial arts at the sixth stage of the Houtian realm, it did not exclude disciples from the sect, especially those clans with a high status, Cao Yuan was clearly one of them.

Before Cao Yuan's tiger claw could grab Zhao Kui's chest, it changed its direction and turned around, aiming to grab Zhao Kui's chin. Cao Yuan's tiger claw had yet to grab Zhao Kui's chest, and changed its direction and turned upwards, aiming to grab Zhao Kui's chin.

"Great fight, senior brother Cao!" Get that arrogant brat off the stage! " When Cao Yuan's supporters saw Cao Yuan use his martial techniques the moment he started, their confidence greatly increased and they all shouted out loud.

Martial arts?" No way, this Cao Yuan actually knows a martial skill! This time, Boss Zhao Kui is in a bit of a suspense. " Zhao Kui's supporters also expressed surprise. Cao Yuan's supporters were currently brimming with confidence, and their gazes were filled with contempt as they looked at Zhao Kui's supporters. This was a counter attack towards them who had just been despised by Zhao Kui's supporters.

After that, Cao Yuan's hand was pressed onto Cao Yuan's right chest by Zhao Kui, making it unable to move. Zhao Kui reached out with his right hand, grabbed Cao Yuan's fist, and twisted his wrist, forcing Cao Yuan's arm to spin around as well. Zhao Kui pushed with his right hand, pushing Cao Yuan away as Cao Yuan flipped several times in the air before landing on the ground and rubbing his twisted left arm with his right hand.

"Boss Zhao is awesome!" The few people below the stage started to shout. At the same time, their gazes were provoking Cao Yuan's supporters.

"This kid surnamed Zhao is really quick to react ?" Even Cao Yuan's supporters sighed.

"Junior Brother Zhao is formidable, but be careful now. I will use my clan's martial skill, ? Tiger Claw Art ?, at full strength!" With that said, both of his hands took the shape of tiger claws. The tiger roar became even louder, and the strong wind even blew up the dust on the ground. Cao Yuan pounced over like a fierce tiger.

His intersecting claws fiercely slashed towards both sides. If his flesh and blood were to be hit by the tiger claw, it was inevitable that his skin and flesh would be torn off. Even the metal stone would be scratched by the tiger claw.

Zhao Kui didn't care about the Tiger Claw Art. In his eyes, this martial skill was at most one of the lowest ranked martial skills that he knew. To him, this martial skill was completely beneath his notice. It was just like someone who owned a gold mountain. He wouldn't care about the money that was spent on the ground.

"Creak Creak." Zhao Kui's palms clashed with Cao Yuan's tiger claws, causing a cracking sound to ring out. Zhao Kui's palms were harder than steel, Cao Yuan could only feel waves of pain on his fingertips, and looking back at Zhao Kui, who still had that relaxed expression on his face, Zhao Kui was still able to easily cope with this exchange while Cao Yuan had almost exerted his strongest strength.

"What a tough palm, it's no problem at all for my tiger claws to break through the hard wood. When my tiger claws mastered the art, even Damascus Steel would be torn to shreds. But I am completely helpless against his palm. He also knows a martial skill! " Seeing this scene, Cao Yuan's confidence in himself decreased even more.

However, Cao Yuan did not hesitate and pounced over. He grabbed and pounced like a berserk tiger, sweeping his legs towards Zhao Kui from time to time. Unfortunately, he could not even touch a corner of Zhao Kui's clothes.

Seeing that the competition was over, Zhao Kui did not want to waste any more time. One of his palms brushed away Cao Yuan's hands, and while Cao Yuan's chest was exposed to Zhao Yuan's attack range, a palm landed on it. The palm did not use much strength, but it only made Cao Yuan cough.

"Thank you, senior brother Cao." Zhao Kui cupped his fist and said to Cao Yuan.

"Junior Martial Brother Zhao is amazing. I have to thank you for being lenient. Otherwise, I wouldn't be coughing a few times." Cao Yuan was also a man of his word. Seeing this scene, he was also very grateful to Zhao Kui for showing mercy and for giving him a more respectable way of losing, "I hope that you will be able to bring honor to us newcomers in the upcoming battle with the young elites within the sect. "Brother Zhao, I, Cao Yuan, have made friends with you. If there are any problems, just come and find me. I will do my best to help you."

"Then, I will thank Senior Cao first. I will definitely go all out during the competition!" Zhao Kui also said to Cao Yuan with a friendly smile. Zhao Kui had a good impression of Cao Yuan and he could tell that Cao Yuan was an honorable person. Therefore, Zhao Kui was happy to make this friend of his.

Below the stage, Zhao Kui's supporters were naturally celebrating their Boss Zhao's victory, and Cao Yuan's supporters were also very surprised, they never thought that Cao Yuan, who was so powerful, would be defeated so simply. Zhao Kui's victory was also a glory for them, Zhao Kui, and even though they were the seniors in front of Zhao Kui's group of new disciples, they were still new disciples in the sect and were the targets for bullying. They longed to teach those old disciples a lesson, and this hope had already fallen onto Zhao Kui.
