Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

The result of this match was as Yang Yu expected, with Gordon achieving an overwhelming victory, winning quite easily.

After the match ended, Gordon naturally flew over to Yang Yu and the others, rejoining his team.

Yang Yu didn’t mention the topic he had just discussed with Wanjing Zhuhua; he simply greeted Gordon casually and then gave him a copy of the intelligence he had gathered on Aslit, showing his goodwill.

Gordon immediately tossed the information to Wanjing Zhuhua and asked if Yang Yu had obtained any interesting trinkets when strategizing through those Super Large Mazes.

Yang Yu casually took out two or three small trinkets to show them to Gordon, displaying his friendliness.

Gordon was all smiles and quite pleased.

On the side, Wanjing Zhuhua, holding a thick stack of intelligence, glanced at Sena teasing He Meng and looked at Gordon fiddling with toys, adjusted his large round glasses, and let out a long sigh.

Gordon’s match was the last one of today.

After the host announced the end of the match, the audience began to leave in an orderly manner.

Many people immediately started inquiring about Aslit, and some even waited outside the Arena for Yang Yu’s group to ask Bai Jin about his thoughts on battling the Enchanting Demon.

Bai Jin casually said a few words and then, using the excuse of needing to attend a strategy meeting, squeezed through the crowd and left the Arena with Yang Yu.

Shortly after Yang Yu and the others left the Arena, the Dragon God Conference Committee received a notice from the giant dragons and made a significant decision.

The Dragon God Conference Committee decided to combine the originally two-day competition into one day.

The morning would host the quarterfinals, while the semifinals and finals would take place in the afternoon. The awards ceremony would be held that night, followed immediately by completing the subsequent administrative tasks.

The news came so suddenly, catching both the audience and participants off guard.

Although using barriers allows participants to return to optimal Status after each match, the continuous high-intensity, high-pressure matches are bound to affect the participants’ mindset and, subsequently, the entertainment value of the matches.

People were puzzled about why the Dragon God Conference Committee suddenly made this decision... especially since it was made after both the participants and audience had left, leaving them to speculate about the committee’s intentions.

Yang Yu also found it strange, but now wasn’t the time for him to worry about the reasons behind the schedule change....

Altering the schedule isn’t something unusual in the Dragon God Conference.

The Dragon God Conference is expected to end within half a month or so; sometimes, the early rounds take too long, dragging on for over twenty days, prompting the giant dragons to tighten the schedule, urging participants to finish quickly.

The shortened schedule also means that Yang Yu will lose a lot of preparation time.

Upon receiving the notification of the schedule change, Yang Yu immediately began investigating the latest intelligence on his remaining opponents and devised targeted strategies for each.

For Yang Yu, the earlier the Dragon God Conference ends, the better.

The sooner it ends, the sooner he can obtain the Dragon Race Essence, complete his enhancement, and embark on a new journey.

Time passed swiftly, and the quarterfinals began under the morning sun.

Yang Yu was still the first to appear, and his opponent, like Yang Yu, was a Human named Niros Archer, who excelled in strategy and planning.

If Yang Yu hadn’t been so highlight, Niros Archer would have undoubtedly become a dark horse in the arena.

Niros Archer’s attributes were slightly lower than Yang Yu’s, but Yang Yu did not underestimate him.

Reaching this stage was proof of his extraordinary abilities.

Before the match, Yang Yu meticulously searched for various pieces of information about Niros Archer.

Yang Yu also thoroughly analyzed each of Niros Archer’s previous matches.

To defeat Niros Archer, Yang Yu formulated numerous strategies.

As soon as the match started, Yang Yu responded to each move with countermeasures, gaining the upper hand.

Niros Archer, caught off guard, employed a plethora of tactics, attempting to send Yang Yu out of the arena by any means.

But Yang Yu never fell for it, handling everything with ease.

At one point, Niros Archer knocked Yang Yu flying, seemingly about to succeed, but Yang Yu made thorns grow from the ground; with a pull, he casually returned to the arena.

Only then did Niros Archer realize that all his actions and thoughts had been completely seen through.

Even so, until the very last moment of the match, Niros Archer did not give up.

Before being knocked out by Yang Yu, he did not raise his hand to surrender, showing remarkable resilience.

After the match, Niros Archer proactively extended his hand to Yang Yu, expressing regret for losing and gratitude for not being underestimated by Yang Yu.

Yang Yu took Niros Archer’s hand, said a few comforting words, patted his shoulder, bringing an end to his Dragon God Conference journey.

This is the cruelty of competition; there can only be one winner.

Shortly after Yang Yu’s match ended, the second match began.

This match was Island Drifting’s Luo Hasta against Corpse Collection Coffin’s Hualan.

Both were Sea-dwelling Species with extraordinary abilities.

Under the tutelage of Corpse Collection Coffin, Hualan mastered spiritual power, becoming an excellent Spirit Manipulator.

Hualan’s spiritual power was indeed special among Spiritual Ability Users.

Most spiritual power users could only collect souls with a certain level of obsession, but Hualan could collect and manipulate any sea Demon soul that died unexpectedly.

The desire to live was a small obsession of living creatures.

And it was this small obsession that became strands of light in Hualan’s hands.

Although the time retaining this obsession was short, the number of Spiritual Bodies Hualan collected exceeded ordinary imagination; when Hualan got serious in a match, it was like opening a giant aquarium with all sorts of strange fish swimming out.

His opponent, Luo Hasta, didn’t lag behind either.

Yang Yu initially thought Luo Hasta belonged to the octopus-shaped Sea-dwelling Species but found he had more than eight tentacles, with arms and legs that could transform into new tentacles, causing one’s sanity to plummet.

Once they truly started fighting, Yang Yu discovered Luo Hasta was extremely flexible, seemingly boneless, able to dodge Hualan’s attacks with bizarre postures.

Yang Yu anticipated seeing a slippery tentacle play, but Hualan directly summoned several Contracted Spirit Bodies, using extremely extravagant moves to cut off Luo Hasta’s writhing tentacles, completing a counter-kill.

Yang Yu’s next opponent was determined to be Corpse Collection Coffin’s Hualan.

Just looking at Hualan’s status attributes, Yang Yu felt it was hard for Hualan to make it to the quarterfinals, but after watching this match, he felt Hualan deserved to be in the semifinals.
