My Master Knows It All

556: Chapter 190_5 556: Chapter 190_5 “This is the first time the arena has been destroyed since the start of the Immortal Martial Arts Tournament!”

“Immortal Li Ke’s final flame was too terrifying.”

“That wasn’t just the power of Immortal Li Ke’s final flame, but also the residual force from her previous flames, as well as Fairy Qin Yao’s divine skill’s power, otherwise, such might wouldn’t have erupted!”

“But the main force was still Immortal Li Ke’s fiery power.

Didn’t you see?

The other two forces were suppressed by the Vermilion Bird pseudo-fire released by Immortal Li Ke at the end.

That’s also why Immortal Li Ke didn’t suffer any injuries.”

“I know of the Vermilion Bird pseudo-fire, but this is still the first time I’ve seen such a flame.

To think that just the pseudo-fire of the Vermilion Bird is already so terrifying, then the true Vermilion Bird’s fire must be unimaginably fearsome.”

From the direction of Thousand Caves Door, an elder frowned as he looked at the arena reduced to a charred mess, and turned to look at Star Lord Hao Yue with full of doubts, asking, “Star Monarch, this Vermilion Bird pseudo-fire…”

Star Lord Hao Yue’s face showed a trace of disdain, not for Li Ke, but for the lack of knowledge among the surrounding people.

“Vermilion Bird pseudo-fire?

Who said it was Vermilion Bird pseudo-fire?

How could the pseudo-fire possess such might, how could it compare to this flame?

This is the Vermilion Bird sub-fire!”

“Vermilion Bird sub-fire?” The elderly man beside him was completely dumbfounded; it was the first time he had heard this name.

“Vermilion Bird sub-fire, second only to the Vermilion Bird’s flame itself, can be said that while the pseudo is the fake Vermilion Bird’s flame, the sub-fire truly contains a trace of the Vermilion Bird’s fire.

It’s just extremely, extremely faint, but no matter how faint, that is still the Vermilion Bird’s fire.”

Star Lord Hao Yue turned back to the elder of Thousand Caves Door and began to lecture, “Let me put it this way, cultivating the Vermilion Bird pseudo-fire has no connection to the true Vermilion Bird’s fire, and it won’t make it any easier to cultivate the Vermilion Bird’s fire when the time comes.

But, if you cultivate the Vermilion Bird sub-fire, one step further is to cultivate the true Vermilion Bird’s fire.”

As his words ended, the disciples of Thousand Caves Door couldn’t help but exclaim in wonder.

“Vermilion Bird sub-fire?”

“It contains a trace of the Vermilion Bird’s fire?”

“Such a flame exists in the world?”

“Why didn’t we know about it?”

“It must be because of Peak Master Cao.

Don’t forget, Peak Master Cao is also a reincarnated Great Ability.

And as for Immortal Li Ke, haven’t the people of Hundred Peaks Sect already said it?

Immortal Li Ke is Peak Master Cao’s companion.

If Peak Master Cao can help his disciple cultivate the Fire of Departure, there’s no reason he wouldn’t help his companion.”

“So, this battle isn’t about Immortal Li Ke defeating Fairy Qin Yao, but Peak Master Cao defeating Sun Moon Eclipse.”

“Vermilion Bird sub-fire… Immortal Li Ke actually possesses such a flame; now the other experts will be in trouble when they encounter her again.”

“In this case, if Immortal Li Ke doesn’t meet Peak Master Cao or Star Lord Hao Yue too soon, it’s very likely she’s destined to enter the top eleven.”

“That’s not necessarily true.

Don’t forget, there’s still Old Man Zhi Ran, the four great elders, and the disciples of Divine Dao Sect.”

“Anyway, in terms of strength, I think Immortal Li Ke is a guaranteed quarterfinalist at least!”

“What a pity for Fairy Qin Yao.

She was clearly so powerful, yet she was eliminated early on.”

“Yes, if Fairy Qin Yao had been eliminated in the top sixteen, she would still have a chance to vie for the top eleven.

Now, however, she has been eliminated.”

For a time, the sound of sighs rose one after another.

This time the Immortal Martial Arts Tournament was to select a State Preceptor and ten Immortal Generals, a total of eleven people.

However, with the dueling format of two people facing each other, it wouldn’t directly result in the top eleven rankings.

Therefore, the rules of the Immortal Martial Arts Tournament as announced by the Grand Preceptor before.

That is, the top eight automatically receive their respective rankings.

The remaining three spots will be chosen from the other eight eliminated competitors.

An eight-person duel ensues, and the last two remaining will claim the top ten positions.

The final spot is then contested by the los from the semifinals to determine the eleventh person.

Therefore, reaching the top sixteen means that even if one loses, there’s still a chance to grasp a spot in the top eleven, but before reaching top sixteen, a loss means total elimination.

On the arena, as the referee announced Li Ke as the winner, she had already flown back to the position of Hundred Peaks Sect, while an elder from the Sun and Moon Sect naturally took Qin Yao back in his arms.

At this moment, the atmosphere among the elders and disciples of the Sun and Moon Sect was extremely solemn.

Firstly, Qin Yao was gravely injured, and secondly, with her loss, their chance for a spot among the top eleven had grown incredibly slim.

Qin Yao was the strongest among the three in Sun and Moon Sect bearing the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection.

The other two were likely to be somewhat weaker than Li Ke without deploying the Vermilion Bird sub-fire, probably on par with Nie Jie from Hundred Peaks Sect.

How could they contend for the top eleven?

The battle between Li Ke and Qin Yao hadn’t been short.

As their fight concluded with a victor, on another arena, a powerful master from Dharma Apex Sect, also bearing the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, defeated his opponent, a person who likewise had ten Golden Cores, but only eight of which were of a different phenomenon and not from one of the major Immortal Sects.

As such, two arenas were set to have their next contestants begin their matches simultaneously.

Peak Master Cao looked at the arena that had been damaged by Li Ke’s fire, with several broken stone pillars, then at the distant Grand Preceptor who showed no intention of replacing the arena, and couldn’t help but internally complain about how stingy the Grand Preceptor was, not even bothering to replace the damaged arena.
