The final ranking was decided by the Jin Long Wei, and there was no need to explain to anyone.
Soon, the first round was about to begin. Yi Yun and Tao Yunxiao, who shined in the semi-finals, were not called up.
But Lian Chengyu was called up to the arena.
His opponent was a person who barely passed the semi-finals. The opponent was a Yellow rank grade one person, so he was unlikely to pass the Kingdom’s selection.
Lian Chengyu’s strength was alarming. The battle lacked any suspense as that person was defeated easily by Lian Chengyu, who reached the second round.
As for Yi Yun, he entered into the second round without fighting.
This made many people, who wanted to see Yi Yun’s strength, angry. The Jin Long Wei examiners were too biased to this guy.
“He may avoid the first, but he can’t avoid the second! Sooner or later you will be exposed.” Lian Chengyu who easily won was pleased as he sneered at Yi Yun, “Others might not know your background, but I know everything! You have just practice martial arts for three months! Your strength is only enough to abuse characters like Zhao Tiezhu. Have you ever fought a real expert? I’m afraid you don’t even have any battle experience!”
“For me, I’ve sparred with Instructor Yao since I was young. I’m at the peak of the Qi Gatherer realm. I’m already at the limit of the Qi Gatherer realm. What makes you think you can fight me!?”
Lian Chengyu knew Yi Yun was a genius, but while Yi Yun induced purple mist during his demonstration of his technique, or he had good Spirit, it only proved that Yi Yun had talent. So what if he was talented? Today was a real battle. A genius had to grow in order to instill fear in others!
He wanted to maim Yi Yun in this battle, destroying his confidence, so that he was nothing but dust in the future!
Lian Chengyu’s hate for Yi Yun was like the river waters of the East River, a never ending flow.
Yi Yun took one look at Lian Chengyu and said, “You want to battle me, first beat your opponents. There are over ten people here. Your strength isn’t the best among them, who knows, you might be defeated in the next round.”
After listening to Yi Yun’s words, Lian Chengyu laughed, “You are still taunting others when death is at hand, you are really stupid!”
Just as Lian Chengyu said that, Zhang Tan suddenly shouted, “Next round, Yi Yun! Lian Chengyu! Enter the arena!”
This voice shocked the numerous contestants. They had come to the realization that Yi Yun and Lian Chengyu were bitter enemies. They were waiting to watch a show, but they knew there was a chance they might never meet in battle.
But they never expected that Yi Yun’s first match was against Lian Chengyu!
Was this a coincidence? Or a deliberate arrangement?
“It may be because Thousand Households Zhang had noticed the hostile relationship between the two and deliberately arranged it!” Someone said with affirmation, for how could it be this coincidental?
“Isn’t this helping Lian Chengyu? It was all Lian Chengyu could wish for.” The people looked at Lian Chengyu and saw an excited Lian Chengyu. He was like a wolf that spotted a lamb after starving for a month. It was as if his whole body was burning.
“Good! Good! Just to my liking! Even Thousand Households Zhang is helping me, hahaha!” Lian Chengyu was elated. He looked at Yi Yun with his eyes red with excitement. People tend to lose their rationality when they are in extreme anger.
“Today is the day of your death!” Lian Chengyu transmitted his voice that was infused with a grim smile.
