Chapter 2145 - 2142: Even More Intense

Second round of the tournament!

Everyone was focused as they listened.

"It seems today will be even more intense," Qi Lechun said.

"On the second day, each person needs to defeat two opponents to advance to the next round," Prince Jing announced.

Upon hearing this, the crowd was amazed.

"This seems different from past Dragon and Phoenix Grand Competitions?"

"Yes, this is a brand-new system!"

"There’s never been a situation like this before."

"But this is good, the elimination will be faster, and those who make it through will truly be the best of the best!"

All around, people were fired up, and not one backed down.

Actually, in Xu Wendong’s view, this system was like raising gu insects, with the strong emerging quickly and the weak being eliminated swiftly.

"It’s still the old rule, Holy Maiden Ling, you draw lots," Qi Lechun said.

"Alright," Ling Xuefei nodded, reaching her hand into the bamboo tube.

"First match: Xu Wendong from the Nether Talisman Hall versus Wu Xia from the Wind Thunder Pavilion!"

As soon as those words were spoken, the surroundings were shocked!

"It’s Xu Wendong again?"

"What a coincidence, he was the vanguard on the first day as well, and today he’s the first again. But his luck is not so good today, facing Wu Xia!"

"Indeed, Wu Xia is the Saint Heir of Wind Thunder Pavilion, and his realm is the Seventh Level of Ghost Control Realm, much stronger than Yang Yun from yesterday!"

Not far away, Ying Youlu looked worried and said, "Sister, do you think Brother Xu can win?"

Ying Youwei nodded and said, "He will win."

She believed in Xu Wendong’s strength, no matter if the opponent was the Saint Heir of Wind Thunder Pavilion or not.

"If things don’t go well, just surrender immediately, remember not to show off, understand?" Qi Lechun reminded.

It wasn’t that he didn’t believe in Xu Wendong, but Wu Xia was indeed much stronger, at Ghost Control Realm, one realm is like a First Level!

The seventh level, already nearing the late stage of the Ghost Control Realm.

If Xu Wendong couldn’t defeat him, surrendering would be the best choice, because if he died trying to show off, it would be a great loss to the Nether Talisman Hall.

Xu Wendong nodded, and stepped onto the Martial Arts Stage, while another figure also walked up!

This was a young man, with a dragon-like gait and tiger-like steps, eyes shining brightly, exuding an overwhelming aura!

The other duels were also gradually beginning!

This time, many people were still focused on Xu Wendong’s side.

"Yesterday, I remember Xu Wendong seemed to have killed Yang Yun, who was at the Sixth Level, with his Third Level of Ghost Control Realm?"

Prince Jing said calmly.

Someone immediately responded beside him, "Yes."

"I wonder if he can create a miracle today?" Prince Jing asked.

No one answered!

Because most people already had an answer in their hearts!

"Begin!"

As the words fell, the match commenced!

"It seems that Green Cloud Holy Dew will be mine," Wu Xia said coldly.

"Xu Wendong, a mere Ghost Control Realm, what makes you worthy of the Green Cloud Holy Dew?"

Xu Wendong was taken aback, and said, "What did you say?"

"You don’t know yet, do you? Liufeng Sacred Land has already placed a bounty on you. Whoever can kill you in the Dragon and Phoenix Grand Competition will get the Green Cloud Holy Dew!" Wu Xia’s eyes were cold.

Damn it!

Xu Wendong looked towards Luo Su in the spectator’s seats, this guy... actually used Green Cloud Holy Dew to put a bounty on him?

Even using these off-stage tactics!

Disgusting!

"I’m afraid you won’t get the Green Cloud Holy Dew, and you’ll lose yourself right here!" Xu Wendong said coldly.

"Heh, in my eyes, you’re already a dead man! Nether Talisman Master... don’t think everyone fears you!"

With those words, Wu Xia roared loudly, stomping his foot!

Boom!

A clap of thunder!

His entire body vanished from where he stood in an instant!

"Such fast speed!"

"This has to do with the cultivation technique of Wind Thunder Pavilion; the Wind Thunder Technique they cultivate allows their speed to reach thunder-like levels."

"Perhaps a Nether Talisman Master can restrain someone like Yang Yun, but against Wu Xia, Xu Wendong likely won’t have the chance to employ his Netherworld Talismans."

At the end of the day, if he doesn’t use Netherworld Talismans, Xu Wendong is merely at the Third Level of Ghost Control Realm, while Wu Xia is far ahead!

A full four minor realms!

Boom!

A thunderous noise.

Xu Wendong’s body was sent flying!

"Oh? Is it still yesterday’s Defense Nether Talisman?" Wu Xia’s eyes glimmered.

Xu Wendong’s body was surrounded by Rock Armor, although he was instantly hit by Wu Xia, it did not cause much damage!

Fourth-grade Nether Talisman Flowing Rock Armor Talisman!

"But it’s just a fourth-grade Nether Talisman; it’s probably not enough!"

As Wu Xia finished speaking, his entire body was surrounded by flashes of thunder, and the air was filled with the burnt smell of smoldering.

"Gold Chaos!" Xu Wendong said.

Another Fourth-grade Nether Talisman was sent towards Wu Xia.

Wu Xia grinned, his figure disappearing like thunder, and Gold Chaos exploded into empty air, not striking him!

"Too fast."

"This person’s speed completely restrains Xiao Xu’s potential!" Qi Lechun frowned deeply.

Wu Xia instantly appeared in front of Xu Wendong, his fist wrapped in thunder, punching towards Xu Wendong fiercely, shattering the Flowing Rock Armor!

Xu Wendong quickly retreated rapidly, pulling out another Fourth-grade Nether Talisman Flowing Rock Armor Talisman!

However, right as he took out the talisman, Wu Xia was already upon him, not allowing him the chance to use it!

"You think you can keep hiding behind this turtle shell?"

"Die!"

Wu Xia fiercely swung his fist!

Lightning strikes!

Yet Xu Wendong remained incredibly calm.

Hmm?

What was going on?

Wu Xia’s heart was shocked.

Why was Xu Wendong still able to remain so calm, even seemingly indifferent, despite being suppressed by him?

Something wasn’t right.

But he couldn’t figure out what was wrong.

A Netherworld Talisman suddenly flew towards Wu Xia.

Fifth-grade Nether Talisman—Nine Nether Illusion Talisman!

The moment he saw the talisman, Wu Xia was stunned, his entire being falling into a dazed state, the fist he lifted falling weakly downward!

"What’s going on?"

"Can someone explain what just happened?"

Everyone originally expected Wu Xia to win, but suddenly he just gave up attacking.

Wu Xia stared blankly at the scene before him, and there stood a middle-aged man with a stern appearance and demeanor, cold and near severe, speaking:

"Yesterday I asked you to practice the Wind Thunder Technique incantation five times, did you practice it?"

This is...

His master?

Wu Xia seemed to recall the deepest fear in his memory.

But wasn’t he fighting Xu Wendong in the Dragon and Phoenix Grand Competition?

How did he suddenly appear here?

No way!

It’s that strange Nether Talisman causing trouble!

Wu Xia suddenly opened his eyes, and standing before him was Xu Wendong, who grinned at him and said, "Sending you off, it’s quick!"

Xu Wendong wielded a giant axe, swinging down fiercely!

"Stop, you little beast, I told you to stop!" the Wind Thunder Pavilion Master roared, trying to intervene.

But Xu Wendong ignored him, the axe coming down.

Wu Xia immediately kneeled on the ground, still with some confusion in his eyes.

"Stop?" Xu Wendong turned his head, coldly saying, "If you want to kill me, you must be prepared to die!"
