Grandpa Jiao, good luck.
Yu Qing and Yu Rou both cheered enthusiastically for the elder.
The contestant from the Void Clan was a man with short hair. He appeared somewhat youthful and was named Jigu.
The match soon commenced. This was Jigu, the Void Clan contestant, facing a contestant from another top force for the first time.
This fellow called Jigu quickly displayed formidable strength. Without much effort, he easily defeated the elder from Silent Moon Valley.
Worthy of a Void Clan contestant. Jigu made defeating Silent Moon Valley look remarkably effortless.
Jigu’s performance was truly eye-catching. It was said he was a rising powerhouse of the Void Clan’s newer generation. The clan leader valued him highly and had personally taken him as a direct disciple to train.
The onsite crowd erupted in heated discussion and sighs of admiration.
This Jigu from the Void Clan seems somewhat unfathomable. Lin Yun gazed at the arena and sighed inwardly.
In the previous rounds, Lin Yun had also observed this Jigu from the Void Clan.
However, in those earlier matches, Jigu’s opponents had not been particularly strong. Lin Yun had not paid him much special attention before.
Yet just now, Jigu’s effortless defeat of the Silent Moon Valley elder had caught Lin Yun’s notice.
With this match concluded, the round officially ended.
Everyone was well aware that those who emerged victorious in this round were absolutely the strongest of the strong.
Although Lin Yun had shone brightly, how could the others not have done the same?
The four who had just won their matches, along with Elder Dong Ming from the Heavenly Fire Divine Hall who had drawn a bye, all gathered below the arena, preparing for the next drawing.
This round was five advancing to three. Once again, one person would receive a bye.
At the drawing platform.
All five of us are formidable, yet in the end, only one can remain. Let us see who has the last laugh. The elder from Dual Venerable Pavilion remarked.
Lin Yun glanced at the other four. Indeed, they were all exceptional figures.
The drawing began. Lin Yun was the first to step forward.
For Lin Yun, whether he drew the bye or not made no difference.
Relying on byes could never win the championship.
To claim the title, one ultimately needed sheer hard strength.
The opponent Lin Yun drew was none other than Elder Dong Ming from the Heavenly Fire Divine Hall.
Dual Venerable Pavilion drew Void Clan.
Star Poison Sect received the bye.
In this round of five to three, there were only two matches.
With the drawing complete, since Lin Yun’s was the first match, he and Elder Dong Ming from the Heavenly Fire Divine Hall proceeded directly from the drawing area to the stage.
Thanks to Lin Yun’s dazzling performance in defeating the Young Lord of the Underworld Palace, many onsite now favoured Lin Yun in this contest.
As expected, once the fight began, Lin Yun landed several consecutive sword strikes. He soon inflicted severe injuries on Elder Dong Ming from the Heavenly Fire Divine Hall, frightening the elder into leaping swiftly off the arena, terrified that Lin Yun might actually kill him.
The first match was declared a victory for Lin Yun. He advanced to the top three.
The second match pitted Dual Venerable Pavilion against Void Clan.
Both were top forces within the Dao Alliance. Even before the contest started, anticipation ran high. People were already predicting who would win.
Young Lord, which of them do you think has the greater chance of victory? An Yun asked.
It should be Dual Venerable Pavilion. That elder’s performances have indeed been outstanding. Lin Yun replied.
Lin Yun remembered clearly the Dual Venerable Pavilion elder’s displays in previous matches.
The contest on the arena soon unfolded.
Contrary to Lin Yun’s expectations, Jigu from the Void Clan revealed strength even more terrifying than in his previous fight. In particular, the Void Slash and Void Power he unleashed left even Lin Yun startled.
In the end, Jigu from the Void Clan claimed victory in this match.
The powerful elder from Dual Venerable Pavilion could only depart dejectedly, concluding his journey in this Peak Competition.
With this contest over, the top three were determined.
Jigu from Void Clan, Lin Yun, and the elder from Star Poison Sect.
All three possessed unequivocally formidable strength. Each had defeated powerful contenders for the championship.
Unknowingly, Friend Lin Yun has already reached the top three. It is truly hard to imagine. The Pavilion Master of Myriad Treasures Pavilion sighed with emotion.
How could the onsite crowd not share the same astonishment? Who would have thought that among the top three, there would be a contestant from outside the top forces.
The three, Lin Yun included, gathered once more below the arena.
Though all three were extremely strong, only one could claim the ultimate championship. Two were destined to be eliminated.
To defeat the other two powerful opponents would undoubtedly require strength of a terrifying degree.
The Pavilion Master of Myriad Treasures Pavilion approached the drawing platform, personally overseeing this final drawing.
