**Chapter 1520: Whether It's Useful, You'll Know After Trying**
Contestant number 45, named Wang Zhongjiu, comes from the Xuanwu Star Region. Wang Zhongjiu has the realm of a small God Sovereign and is skilled in defense.
In the fourth round of the competition, he made a comeback and defeated contestant number 18, advancing to the fifth round.
From the numbering, it seems he is quite different from Chu Xiong.
Of course, Lin Moyu is not clear about the specific situation. When obtaining the number, Chu Xiong and Zhuang Bi used some small tricks to gain an advantage in the numbering.
It was precisely by leveraging this advantage that Chu Xiong's opponents in the first four rounds were not very strong.
Lin Moyu is not sure about Chu Xiong's true strength either.
Zhuang Bi explained, "He knows Wang Zhongjiu, and their strengths are evenly matched."
Chu Xiong shook his head, "No, his soul is not as strong as mine. If we were outside, I would have a chance to kill him."
"But here, I'm not confident. This guy's defense is too abnormal."
Wang Zhongjiu comprehends the water and earth laws.
The two laws achieve a perfect balance, and combined, his defense ranks among the top three among all small God Sovereigns.
This is also one of the reasons why the competition is held in an arena, even though all contestants can fly in the starry sky.
It's to accommodate some special laws.
One characteristic of the earth law is that as long as one stands on the ground, they can continuously draw power from it, without worrying about exhausting their strength.
Chu Xiong said angrily, "As long as Wang Zhongjiu doesn't leave the arena, I can't do anything to him."
Lin Moyu tore off a piece of meat and threw it into his mouth, "Then just wear him down."
Chu Xiong shook his head, "I can't wear him down. As long as he stays in the arena, his strength won't run out. He will keep attacking, and your strength will gradually be exhausted."
Lin Moyu could imagine the scene: Wang Zhongjiu transforming into a turret, standing in the center of the arena, continuously launching attacks.
Even if Chu Xiong tried to wear him down, he would eventually be worn out.
Xu Jianxing, who was beside them, said, "I watched Wang Zhongjiu's fourth-round match. That's exactly how he fought, eventually wearing his opponent to death."
Lin Moyu asked, "Is there no way to deal with him?"
Chu Xiong shook his head, "Maybe there is, but I can't think of one."
Zhuang Bi said, "If your strength is strong enough to break his defense, you can defeat him."
"Or, if you can restrict his earth law, that would work too."
"From what I know about these contestants, Dongfang Ze, Wei Bowen, and Qing Fei can all defeat him."
Lin Moyu thought for a moment and took out a magical artifact.
It was a rope-like magical artifact, only at the True God realm.
The rope was thin and long, coiled into a ball in his palm, resembling a ball of thread.
"This is a trophy I obtained during a mission. It's not very useful, but I found it interesting, so I kept it."
Lin Moyu wasn't lying. He had obtained many trophies from various missions.
Most of them were sold, but he kept some interesting trinkets.
The rope in his hand was one of them, called the Heart-Linking Rope.
The Heart-Linking Rope doesn't have much use; it can forcibly bind two people together, making them inseparable for a certain period.
If Chu Xiong uses it, he can bind himself to Wang Zhongjiu.
Then Chu Xiong can take him off the ground, breaking his earth law.
However, the Heart-Linking Rope has limitations. Since it's only a True God realm magical artifact, its effect on a God King realm being is very short.
If Wang Zhongjiu were a small God Sovereign, it wouldn't work at all.
Now that he's suppressed to the first rank of the God King realm, the effect won't last more than two minutes.
This means Chu Xiong must defeat Wang Zhongjiu within two minutes.
Once Wang Zhongjiu returns to the ground, Chu Xiong will lose.
Chu Xiong, who was initially very frustrated, took the Heart-Linking Rope and, after refining it, suddenly burst into laughter, "Good stuff, two minutes is enough. Tomorrow, I'll beat him up."
Zhuang Bi laughed, "Beat him up well, beat him hard."
Lin Moyu asked, "Senior Brother Zhuang, is there any problem with your opponent tomorrow?"
Zhuang Bi shook his head, "No problem, at most it'll take some effort."
Hearing this, Lin Moyu knew there wouldn't be any issues.
Zhuang Bi, unlike Chu Xiong, was cautious and rarely made mistakes.
To be selected as a seed player, one must either be extremely strong or have great potential.
Both Zhuang Bi and Chu Xiong, as small God Sovereigns, had considerable strength.
Entering the top 16 shouldn't be a problem.
Especially after obtaining lower numbers, their opponents were much weaker, making it even less of an issue.
Lin Moyu raised his wine glass, "I wish both senior brothers victory tomorrow and advancement to the top 16!"
Chu Xiong raised his glass and clinked it with Lin Moyu's, "Just watch, tomorrow I'll beat that old turtle hard!"
The fifth round of battles arrived as scheduled, and Lin Moyu watched the matches again, wanting to see how Chu Xiong would beat his opponent.
The fifth round had only fifteen matches.
The Human Emperor Network made some changes, with only five matches happening simultaneously each time.
Based on the numbering, the first matches were between contestants numbered 2 to 6.
Chu Xiong was teleported into the arena, and Lin Moyu saw the cultivator named Wang Zhongjiu.
He looked like a middle-aged man, but there was a hint of worry in his brows.
In the arena, he greeted Chu Xiong and spoke to him.
The two knew each other, but Chu Xiong didn't pay much attention to him. After a few words, they seemed to have a disagreement.
Lin Moyu felt there might be some backstory, but it wasn't his concern.
The battle began, and Wang Zhongjiu leaped up, his body instantly covered in solid ice.
He didn't charge at Chu Xiong but instead fell like a meteor, directly hitting the center of the arena.
Then his law domain expanded, and he half-crouched on the ground, transforming into a turret.
His law domain merged with the arena, and most of the arena glowed with a yellowish-brown light, becoming his energy source.
The ice on his body thickened, and countless ice arrows formed.
The dense ice arrows shot towards Chu Xiong.
This was his attack method: standing in the center of the arena, using it as his energy source to continuously attack.
Relying on the strong defense provided by the two laws, he could ignore his opponent's attacks.
Although his attacks weren't very strong, they were enough to wear down his opponent.
Without the Heart-Linking Rope, Chu Xiong would indeed be helpless against him.
But now...
Chu Xiong's power erupted, and his law domain expanded.
Countless battle knives appeared in Chu Xiong's law domain, flying up and cutting down all the ice arrows.
Chu Xiong charged towards Wang Zhongjiu, his law domain shattering the ice arrows along the way.
This showed that in terms of pure attack power, Chu Xiong far surpassed Wang Zhongjiu.
Cultivators from the Xuanwu Star Region were known for their defense, ranking first, and their attack, ranking last.
Chu Xiong broke through the rain of ice arrows and rushed to Wang Zhongjiu.
Wang Zhongjiu, half-crouched on the ground, continued to control the ice arrows to attack Chu Xiong, with a disdainful look, "Chu Bear, you know my defense. You can't break it."
Chu Xiong grinned, showing his white teeth, "Old turtle, I have a way to deal with you."
Wang Zhongjiu remained unmoved, "Then try it!"
Chu Xiong's law domain expanded, and the battle knives formed a whirlwind, breaking through Wang Zhongjiu's ice arrows and landing on him, producing dense collision sounds.
A yellowish-brown light emerged from Wang Zhongjiu, and with the help of the earth law, he remained unmoved.
"It's useless," Wang Zhongjiu said calmly.
Chu Xiong took out a thin rope, his smile widening, "Whether it's useful, you'll know after trying."
