As he commanded, the thick fog before everyone dissipated, revealing the first scene of the Feng Fan Battle preliminary selection: the Blood Pool.
The participating Disciples of Lip Peak cheered; the Blood Pool was the scene they were most familiar with.
The eight scenes of the selection battle were all the entrance trials for the Eight Peaks.
Each of the Eight Peaks appeared once, which was extremely fair to them.
However, if one simply equated the selection battle with the entrance trials, that would be a mistake.
When the Disciple rushing at the very front stepped onto a stone platform in the Blood Pool, he discovered that the suction on it was the strength of a Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Cultivator.
To pull his foot off the stone platform, he had to use his full strength.
Moreover, the Blood Pool in front of Lip Peak only had nine stone platforms, while here there were eighty-one.
It could be said that the Blood Pool here was not a Blood Pool, but a Blood Lake.
"Ah!"
A Protector stayed on a stone platform for too long and was struck down by a wave from the Blood Lake, directly eliminated.
The Disciples attempting the challenge focused intently, continuously leaping across the stone platforms, rushing towards the opposite bank of the Blood Lake.
Qian Duoduo easily moved from one stone platform to another, extending his Spiritual Awareness to look after Guan Xuansheng and the others.
Guan Tusheng and the others were equally steady, reaching the center of the Blood Lake in less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
Suddenly, a massive force blasted towards the stone platform where Qian Duoduo was about to land.
If Qian Duoduo continued to step on it, he would inevitably be hit by the massive force, potentially falling into the Blood Lake.
This massive force carried a deep crimson hue; there was no need to guess, it was the handiwork of Sima Qiankun.
Qian Duoduo condensed his Spiritual Awareness into two Soul Shields, placed them under his feet, and bravely met the massive force.
"Pfft."
With a muffled sound, the Soul Shields completely dissipated the massive force.
Qian Duoduo landed lightly on the stone platform and casually shot a Soul Arrow towards the crimson-robed figure in front.
To receive without returning is impolite.
Sima Qiankun flicked his left hand back, deflecting Qian Duoduo's Soul Arrow, and then blasted a punch towards Qian Duoduo with his right hand.
Seeing Qian Duoduo and the other fighting with such intensity, the other Disciples quickly avoided them.
Guan Xuansheng and the others wanted to help, but Qian Duoduo stopped them with his Spiritual Awareness.
The main course had just begun; there was no need to bring out the heavy dishes immediately.
Qian Duoduo pushed off with his feet, increasing his speed, and his ten fingers waved like he was playing a zither, releasing dozens of Soul Arrows, chasing Sima Qiankun and relentlessly shooting at him.
Sima Qiankun simply turned around to face Qian Duoduo, blocking the Soul Arrows while simultaneously unleashing waves of massive force to strike Qian Duoduo's feet, slowing him down. He himself kept moving, leaping backward towards the opposite bank of the Blood Lake.
This move was skillfully executed, causing the surrounding Disciples to show reverence on their faces.
Qian Duoduo chuckled inwardly.
If he hadn't actively attacked him, he wouldn't have dared to use too much Qi.
Now with a reason, Qian Duoduo let loose, adopting a desperate stance, and rushed ahead of the Protector Disciples.
Qian Duoduo quickly passed more than half of the eighty-one stone platforms, with the sound of Protector Disciples falling into the Blood Lake occasionally heard behind him.
Seeing Qian Duoduo about to reach the shore, Sima Qiankun, who was already on the bank, produced a massive sword, which was surprisingly a high-tier artisan artifact.
Sima Qiankun held the massive sword in his hand, showing no sign of effort.
He suddenly swung forward, and a golden light as thick as a water bucket surged towards Qian Duoduo.
Gong Dian, standing not far away, smiled at the sight, flicked his right hand backward, and a silver light, arriving later but reaching first, formed a pincer attack with the golden light. After flicking the silver light, Gong Dian did not linger and quickly rushed forward.
This guy is quite devious.
Qian Duoduo gestured with his right hand, condensing a Soul Blade, and raised his left hand, guarding his left side with a Soul Shield.
The Soul Blade slashed forward with full force, the Azure Dragon on the blade colliding with Sima Qiankun's golden light.
