The Heavenly Martial Tournament has officially entered its heated stage.
Tomorrow, the two most anticipated matches are:
Xu Fengqiu VS Tang Shaoyun.
Lin Tianyi VS Zhan Jiuming.
The other Celestial Emperors haven't encountered each other yet.
It's all Celestial Emperors fighting against Heavenly Dao realm cultivators.
There's basically no chance of an upset.
Night fell.
Tang Shaoyun and his father, Tang Jingyu, the Sect Master of the Tang Sect, were walking on the peak.
"How confident are you in defeating Xu Fengqiu tomorrow?" Tang Jingyu asked.
Tang Shaoyun said, "About fifty percent."
Tang Jingyu nodded.
He also believed in his son.
Although Xu Fengqiu was indeed extraordinary.
However, everyone felt that his extraordinariness largely relied on external forces.
His own strength, while certainly strong, wouldn't be too heaven-defying.
Tang Jingyu said, "Xu Fengqiu's greatest advantage lies in the fact that ninety percent of his strength is mysterious. The world knows too little about him. His cultivation techniques, martial skills, and trump cards have never been revealed."
"And your disadvantage lies in the fact that if he wants to investigate you, he can know half of your abilities."
Tang Shaoyun said, "Your son still has half of his trump cards left, enough to defeat him."
"Don't be careless. His ability to defeat He Changqing in one move means that his strength is extremely high."
"Your son's strength is not bad either. In tomorrow's battle, I will definitely make Xu Fengqiu reveal his true colors."
Tang Jingyu: "In short, never be careless. Your father has great faith in your strength."
"Yes."
"I just don't know what stage Xu Fengqiu has cultivated the Seven Emotions Ode to the World to," Tang Jingyu frowned.
Tang Shaoyun said, "He has only been cultivating the Seven Emotions Ode to the World for a few months."
"However, his comprehension is extremely strong. It is said that he achieved the fifth level of the first emotion in just a few incense sticks' time. If he continues with such talent, it is very likely that he has now cultivated to the third emotion of the Seven Emotions Ode to the World."
Tang Shaoyun: "Impossible. If he could cultivate to the third emotion in a few months, what would that make him? Beyond comprehension, absolutely impossible. Your son doesn't believe it."
"Well, your father doesn't believe it either, but you can't be careless."
"Yes."
… …
On the other side.
"Young Master Xu, be careful in tomorrow's battle," Luo Liuli reminded.
Ye Lingyou also eagerly expressed her concern for Xu Fengqiu: "As the young master of the Tang Sect, Tang Shaoyun's greatest strengths are hidden weapons and poison techniques. Although he cannot use hidden weapons in the Heavenly Martial Tournament, which is equivalent to cutting off one of his arms, this young lady has heard that his hidden weapons have reached the point of solidifying into tangible forms. Although they are not as powerful as normal hidden weapons, you still need to be careful."
Xu Fengqiu said, "Well, how many moves will it take to end it tomorrow?"
Ye Lingyou: "… …"
Luo Liuli: "… …"
Wait… …
The two women exchanged glances.
What did Young Master Xu mean?
When fighting Tang Shaoyun, he was considering how many moves it would take to defeat him tomorrow?
"Ahem, never mind, I'm… going to rest," Ye Lingyou said speechlessly.
Alright then.
She was overthinking it.
It seemed that Xu Fengqiu was even more terrifying than they imagined.
He was facing Tang Shaoyun, and he was even considering how many moves it would take to defeat him.
Regardless of whether he could do it or not.
His confidence meant that he had great faith in himself.
And Xu Fengqiu was different from other martial artists.
The confidence of others might be arrogance or conceit.
Xu Fengqiu's confidence was genuine confidence.
… …
The next day.
Everyone arrived at the martial arts arena early.
Many of the eliminated contestants still chose to stay and watch the increasingly exciting battles.
The battle was about to begin.
One match after another, incomparably exciting.
The battles between Heavenly Dao realm cultivators were also extremely intense.
"Then, for the next match, the two contestants who drew the 'Heaven' character, please prepare to enter the martial arts secret realm," said Zhan Tianwu, the Sect Master of the Martial God Hall.
Xu Fengqiu and Tang Shaoyun stood up and walked towards the arena together.
Wow—
The crowd cheered.
"I really don't know which of the two is stronger."
"Theoretically, Xu Fengqiu is stronger. Defeating He Changqing in one move is not just talk. However, Tang Shaoyun should also be able to do it, so it's impossible to determine."
"The two have the same cultivation realm, but I'm still optimistic about Tang Shaoyun. After all, Xu Fengqiu is a latecomer, a rising star. Tang Shaoyun is already famous, and he has the support of the Tang Sect. That's the Tang Sect, a divine-level force ranked in the top five of the Nine Heavens, and he is the young master of the Tang Sect."
"However, during the Heavenly Nether Holy Land trip, Xu Fengqiu's sword intent was so exaggerated. Tang Shaoyun is definitely not as good in that aspect."
"But don't forget, Tang Shaoyun uses a hammer. They are not competing in swordsmanship. Therefore, Tang Shaoyun's disadvantage in using spiritual weapons is not significant. And the sword, while excelling in flexibility, can never compete with the hammer in terms of strength."
"… …"
"Clan Leader Xu, today we can finally see Little Friend Xu's strength. This old man is very much looking forward to it," said Shi Sheng.
Xu Tianyi smiled: "Don't mention it, Senior Shi Sheng, I'm also looking forward to it."
Liu Yunyan took a sip of tea: "Does Her Majesty the Empress have something on her mind?"
"Ah?"
Xi Shengyao came back to her senses and quickly shook her head: "No."
She was thinking that in a few days, it would be the day for her treatment again.
What should she do?
Li Qianxue was also sitting with them.
"Miss Qianxue, what do you think?" Shi Sheng asked.
Li Qianxue blinked her beautiful eyes and took a sip of tea: "It depends on how quickly he wants to end it."
"Oh? Miss Qianxue means that Little Friend Xu can end the battle at any time?"
Li Qianxue: "Almost."
Liu Yunyan and the others exchanged glances.
They knew that Xu Fengqiu was very strong.
But he shouldn't be strong to this extent, right?
… …
Xu Fengqiu walked directly towards the secret realm.
"Brother Xu, you haven't taken your spiritual weapon yet," Tang Shaoyun suddenly called out to Xu Fengqiu.
Xu Fengqiu said, "No need."
Tang Shaoyun: ! ! !
Wait… …
Oh crap!
"Good, good, good!" Tang Shaoyun gritted his teeth with a gloomy expression.
The humiliation has come to Tang Shaoyun's head, right?
"Heh heh heh, Brother Xu, do you still remember Lin Tianyi's ridiculous ending?" Tang Shaoyun was reminding Xu Fengqiu that if he was showing off, he should think about Lin Tianyi's failure to show off.
Not far away, Lin Tianyi frowned.
Damn it!
Was he going to die if they didn't mention him?
Just wait.
This Tang Shaoyun, I will definitely kill him.
I will kill the entire Tang Sect!
Xu Fengqiu didn't say anything and walked directly into the secret realm.
Wow—
The crowd was in an uproar.
"Xu Fengqiu is fighting Tang Shaoyun without a spiritual weapon?"
"In battles of this level, the strength of spiritual weapons has already been raised to the tenth grade. Above the tenth grade are immortal artifacts. Ordinary Celestial Emperors, their swords are only tenth-grade spiritual weapons. The improvement they can bring to a Celestial Emperor is already huge, at least a thirty percent increase in combat power, right? Xu Fengqiu doesn't want it?"
"How arrogant! Tang Shaoyun, extinguish his arrogance."
"Don't let Xu Fengqiu run rampant. You are the most awesome!"
"… …"
"Heh! Showing off in front of this Emperor?" Tang Shaoyun walked into the secret realm carrying the tenth-grade spiritual weapon, the Arrogant Heaven Hammer.
