When Ye Que heard Yu Lin and Su Mu, he looked at the members of the Yu Clan and said indifferently, "Since you are from the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry, you may not participate today."
"Understood, brother!" Yu Lin and Su Mu nodded.
When the members of the Feng and Wen Clans heard that, they pulled long faces, Su Mu and Yu Lin were so respectful to him, they didn't even dare contradict him! Initially, they had thought Yu Lin would help, but now he didn't dare fight!
The members of the Feng Clan and the Wen Clan looked at Hou Qing Lin, Tian Chi, and the others. The battles were going to be difficult…
Hou Qing Lin frowned. Then he turned to the strong cultivators of the Feng Clan and said, "The Jing Clan asked to postpone the battles of three days, they should choose fighters first, right?"
Ye Que and the others gave Hou Qing Lin some pressure. Jian Mang, Tian Chi, and Ruo Xie had already fought. Lin Feng and Hou Qing Lin could win a battle. But what about the three other ones? Jing Shou and Tantai might be able to win a battle too, but it wasn't sure. Therefore, if they could choose fighters according to the enemies, that would be better.
"Yes, they should," replied a strong cultivator of the Feng Clan. He stood up and said, "Since we've been waiting for you, you should choose people first, right?"
Ye Que looked at the strong cultivator of the Feng Clan aloofly, and said disdainfully, "You surprisingly care about who chooses their fighters first."
"They surprisingly dare talk to outstanding cultivators of the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry that way!" agreed a strong cultivator of the Jing Clan, sneering.
"This battle is not necessary. You should have made them surrender, but since our teacher told us to come, blood will flow now," Ye Que said arrogantly.
"This bunch of little boys dares talk empty words," whispered Tantai icily. He came out of one of the Yu Clan's palaces in the distance.
Yu Lin frowned and looked at Tantai, whispering, "You're ignorant, like a frog in a well."
Ye Que was extremely well known in the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry, so in Qing Shan City, he was considered even stronger. He was an incredible cultivator. At the same cultivation level, almost nobody could compete with him. Even some great emperors couldn't compete with him. The Jing Clan had surprisingly invited such people over!
"Hopelessly stupid," retorted Tantai icily, glancing at Yu Lin. Yu Lin looked back at him coldly.
Lin Feng tapped Tantai's shoulder to tell him to calm down. Arguing with Yu Lin was useless. Now that the members of the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry were there, what could they do? Lin Feng only thought of Mu Chen, nothing else.
Hou Qing Lin brought the members of Tiantai to the front and looked at Ye Que and the others calmly. He said indifferently, "Blood will flow? Since it's that way, if you fight today, you represent the Jing Clan and we can kill you if we are able to?"
"Yes." The members of Tiantai looked aloof and composed. The atmosphere was oppressive at that moment. People finally remembered that these people were talented, too. Three days before, they had astonished the whole town because of their teacher.
However, the five cultivators who had come from the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry were beasts. Yu Lin and Jing Yan looked like insects next to them, especially in front of Ye Que. Yu Lin, Su Mu, and the others all looked to him respectfully.
"Ridiculous! Xu Yu! First battle, you go," said Ye Que.
A young man who was on the left wing of the beast instantly responded, "Alright!"
He jumped forwards, moving quickly and landing instantly on the battle stage. He released Qi towards Hou Qing Lin and the others, the air humming. His cosmic energies had fused together with force. Those energies mainly targeted Hou Qing Lin.
"Who's coming to die?" asked Xu Yu calmly. His Qi kept humming. His teacher had ordered him to come, now he wanted to kill. He didn't just want to protect the Jing Clan's deployment mine, he wanted to take all the others!
"What a powerful Qi!" Apart from Qi, Hou Qing Lin sensed something else, another kind of strength… Dao power. The Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry was very famous in Godly Clouds, they had many geniuses, especially since Godly Clouds was the central part of the continent.
Xu Yu raised his hand and a gigantic black sword appeared. It looked heavy and endless because it was so long. He put it on the ground, there was a rumble as a cloud of dust appeared. The ground trembled. Marks appeared all around the sword as a thick strength surrounded his body. The atmosphere became oppressive.
"Back then, Xu Yu killed an arrogant high-level emperor in one sword strike. His strength is almost unmatched at the same cultivation level," Yu Lin sighed. This battle was going to be tragic for Mu Chen's disciples.
"Powerful force, I'll go," said Hou Qing Lin calmly. He slowly walked out. His robe fluttered in the wind. He walked onto the battle stage and stretched out his hand. He grabbed the sword on his back. He was moving slowly and naturally. Both fighters' forces were incredible.
"That Hou Qing Lin is those people's second fellow disciple. He must be extremely strong, and now he's going to fight the first battle," analyzed the crowd. A heavy sword vs. a swift sword…
Xu Yu smiled mockingly. The air crackled as he charged towards Hou Qing Lin while brandishing his gigantic sword. Stars appeared all around the battle stage. Strident sounds pierced through people's eardrums. At the same time, a powerful, thick, and heavy force bore down on the whole battle stage.
Hou Qing Lin's force and Qi changed. A strong wind started blowing and the air began to buzz wildly. A vortex appeared around him, filled with reincarnation strength.
Hou Qing Lin also started moving forwards. A hurricane roared furiously around him. Reincarnation strength filled the air and blotted out the sky. The energies weighed millions of jin!
"Reincarnation, he controls reincarnation Dao!" The aura was pressing down, people's hearts started pounding. How strong! It wasn't easy to tell who was going to win now…
Xu Yu's expression slightly changed. However, his sword continued streaking across the sky. Marks kept intertwining on the battle stage. They turned into powerful dazzling deployment lights, making the gigantic sword even more powerful.
"Die!" shouted Xu Yu explosively. The heavy sword hacked towards Hou Qing Lin. However, Hou Qing Lin was crazy when fighting, nothing could distract him. He had to bear the pressure. Reincarnation lights penetrated into his enemy's godly awareness and body. Who was going to suffer more?
Xu Yu's arm descended, his sword moved towards Hou Qing Lin. Hou Qing Lin sensed the pressure, and had the impression his body was going to explode. However, his sword moved too. It absorbed reincarnation lights, and Xu Yu's body began to distort. He was falling into the wheel of reincarnation!
He's crazy! His attacks are so swift, but he looks extremely aggressive, thought Lin Feng when he saw that. He was still convinced that Hou Qing Lin was going to win. Hou Qing Lin couldn't be weaker than his opponent.
The crowd was shaking. Even their souls were trembling. However, the atmosphere on the battle stage had already calmed down. Hou Qing Lin looked crazy as he took a deep breath. He had the impression his body was going to be crushed, it felt like the earth and sky were about to collapse. However, he still looked confident and at ease, as he turned around and walked back to Tiantai's people.
Everybody was staring at him. He had won!
Regarding what was on the battle stage, only a gigantic and heavy sword was left. Xu Yu had already disappeared. There were still some intertwining marks left on the ground. However, they weren't enough, and hadn't protected him!
Ye Que felt humiliated. They had lost the first battle! He had the impression he had been slapped in the face.
Ye Que frowned and looked at Tiantai's people with murder in his eyes. He could look furious, but it wouldn't change the result of the battle!
The members of the Jing Clan were astonished. Xu Yu had been killed? He was a genius from the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry and he had been killed because of the Jing Clan?
The members of the Yu Clan were astonished too, especially Yu Lin and Su Mu. Their thoughts were shaking. They felt ridiculous for what they had said just before.
"Oh wow, the cultivators of the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry are so strong!" said Tantai mockingly. Hou Qing Ling had humiliated them, how awesome! Those two morons kept talking about how strong Xu Yu was before the battle…
Su Mu and Yu Lin heard he was making fun of them and frowned, but what could they say? Xu Yu had been killed, it was a fact!
