Chapter 624: Chapter 623: Phoenix Fire (Part 4)

”It didn’t take as long as imagined, this is a clash of the strong, and it’s estimated to last no more than a few minutes, ending soon. The competition will be quick too, probably finished within a few hours, and as for the second and third rounds, it’s likely they will happen the next day,” Mu Chen said with a smile.

At this time, there was no other choice, as the rules of the Martial Arts Convention required mutual competition.

”Okay!” The three women nodded, believing the competition wouldn’t take too long, and looking forward to what would happen next.

Following that, twenty names immediately appeared on the big screen for a round of battles, and soon the second and third round battle lists were revealed, all the way down to the forty-eighth match.

”Husband, you are the last match, how miserable,” Liu Yuxi said with a smile upon seeing the list.

”Last is last, it’s actually pretty good,” Mu Chen said with a smile, comforting himself. Honestly, he wanted to finish the competition as soon as possible and leave, but it turned out this way.

”Su Fei is in the second match, Linglong is the eighteenth, and I am the thirty-second,” Liu Yuxi said with a smile.

”That’s quite spread out,” Mu Chen said helplessly.

”Hehe, then let’s quietly watch the competition! Watching various people’s Martial Arts and strength is quite fun,” the three women said with a smile.

”Then you play slowly! I’m going to cultivate,” Mu Chen immediately sat down to begin refining the power of the Demon Core, desiring to ascend to the Divine Realm’s Fifth Layer Heaven as soon as possible, to truly gain more qualifications.

”Mhm,” the three women stopped bothering Mu Chen and turned their attention to the Martial Arts Arena.

”With a total of forty-eight matches, let the first contestants come up!” An elder with an aged voice said indifferently.

”Yes,” several voices responded, and in a blink of an eye, twenty people descended onto the Martial Arts Arena.

Everyone here knew the rules: falling to the ground counts as defeat, death counts as defeat, surrender counts as defeat.

In an instant, the twenty people stopped listening to others and immediately clashed together in battle.

The first round was a selection, so the strength disparity might be quite clear, and as a result, battles resolved quickly.

Just like that, in less than three minutes, the outcome was as Mu Chen had said; with lightning-fast collisions, the weaker ones were defeated on the spot, but no one was killed in this match. Everyone here was from major forces, and killing someone would mean making a complete enemy of them, so generally nobody was willing to take a life.

”That was fast!” The three women said with a smile, realizing that the competition ended so quickly it wouldn’t take too much time after all.

Soon, the contestants from the first match quickly left the stage, and the competitors for the second match stepped up one after another, with Su Fei among them. Su Fei was at the Holy King Realm, but currently suppressed her power to the aura of the Divine Realm Ninth Layer Heaven, determined to understand the Stele.

”Who is this woman?” Because Su Fei was so beautiful, she immediately drew attention upon her arrival.

”Su Fei?” There were geniuses from the Phoenix Clan here, so they were quite surprised to see her.

”Su Fei is my woman,” declared an invincible talent from the Azure Dragon Clan, with killing intent rising.

”From the Phoenix Clan?” Many people had seen Su Fei before, as she possessed the Phoenix Body, so her appearance caused quite a surprise.

Su Fei’s opponent was a young talent from the Curse Clan, also at the Divine Realm Ninth Layer, but skilled in using curses and poisons, which made him far from weak.

For a moment, many started to worry for Su Fei’s safety.

”Can Su Fei handle it?” Liu Yuxi and the others also had some worries.

As for Mu Chen, he cultivated quietly.

”Beautiful lady, better to concede quickly! I really don’t want to do something to such a gorgeous woman,” the Curse Clan talent said indifferently.

”Don’t waste time, let’s end this quickly!”

”So arrogant, then let’s tease the beauty a bit!” The Curse Clan talent grinned as a frightening black aura emerged, quickly filling the entire Martial Arts Arena.

”Can’t breathe?” Su Fei’s face changed as she sensed that the black gas was filled with poison.

”Though the Curse Clan is powerful, I am your nemesis, Phoenix Fire, burn for me!” Su Fei shouted as flames engulfed her body, a terrifying sight.

In an instant, with the emergence of the Phoenix Fire, the surrounding black aura was completely incinerated, unable to approach Su Fei.

”You are actually a genius from the Phoenix Clan,” the Curse Clan talent’s expression changed, sensing that she was tough to deal with.

”Then try and see how terrible the Curse Clan can be!” The Curse Clan talent spoke while biting his finger, drops of blood coalescing and forming seals rapidly. A mysterious pattern appeared beneath his feet, reminiscent of an Array, and its power spread continuously.

”The Curse Clan’s Undying Divine Map, now that’s a threat,” some were shocked to see the pattern.

”The Undying Divine Map, what’s that?” Many were puzzled and asked.

”The Undying Divine Map means this Curse Clan talent has struck a deal with something, to gain power that can control people, rendering them motionless and hard to solve,” people explained calmly.

”Phoenix Fire, Three-Thousand Burning Flames,” Su Fei quickly saw through the Curse Clan talent’s tricks, as a horrifying fire burst forth, wrapping around the ground, with countless flames assaulting the Curse Clan talent.

”Even with this, you’re no match for me,” the Curse Clan talent shouted, vanishing in the blink of an eye to dodge the flames swiftly.

”Is that so? Ten-Thousand Fires to the Sky,” Su Fei shouted again, with a terrifying burst of fire energy that coalesced into deadly flames charging at the Curse Clan talent.

The skill gap was too great; as soon as they collided, the Curse Clan talent was blown away, easily defeated by Su Fei.

”You are so powerful, I am thoroughly convinced by my defeat,” the Curse Clan talent said before vanishing in the blink of an eye.

”It ended in about a minute, as expected, a strong comparison was made immediately,” Su Fei said reluctantly.

”She won, Su Fei is amazing,” Shui Linglong and Liu Yu said seriously, expressing their shock.

Actually, Su Fei shouldn’t have won so quickly, but because her flames counteracted the Curse Clan talent’s abilities, she won with ease.

The other matches also ended quickly; some were overwhelmed by weaker opponents, others by stronger ones, different people, different mindsets.

Just like that, the second match ended quickly, and the contestants for the third round took to the competition.

Subsequent battles proceeded one after another, but none were particularly exciting. However, what shocked everyone was a person named Godslayer who killed a talent from Yun Country in one second - a fatal strike, terrifying beyond measure.
