Chapter 520 - Incredible Battle

Since the Red Ghost King had always lived a high-profile life, Ying Shaotian’s appearance garnered everyone’s attention.

“Who’s number six?” Ying Shaotian asked, looking at Long Chen. He had hoped that Long Chen would be number six. Unfortunately, he was number seven, or Long Chen would’ve run up and pummeled Ying Shaotian.

Since both Liu Yiyi and I have secured a spot, the Clear Shallows Pavilion’s ranking will be higher than the Red Ghost Pavilion’s as long as I beat Ying Shaotian! Liu Yiyi won’t have to marry Ying Shaotian!

Long Chen had made a promise to the Clear Shallows King and he will achieve it no matter what!

So who was the sixth contestant?

Everyone was shocked to see who it was. To think that it was another disciple at the Eighth Passage Stage! The lots had been too coincidental. The crowd was already brimming with excitement from the previous fight, and now they would be able to spectate another fight between disciples at the same cultivation level.

“What’s happening? That means two disciples at the Eighth Passage Stage will be eliminated! Doesn’t that mean two disciples at the Seventh Passage Stage will be able to enter the top six? Isn’t this illegal?”

“How is it illegal? Luck plays a large part. When it comes to drawing lots, everything depends on luck. Plus, who cares about being in the top six? Everyone wants to reach the top three. Even though they will enter the top six due to luck, will they be able to advance into the top three with luck alone?”

Everyone started chattering and discussing.

The Red Ghost King frowned when Ying Shaotian didn’t get paired with Long Chen. If Ying Shaotian lost here, the Red Ghost King would definitely have to kneel and apologize even if both Liu Yiyi and Long Chen didn’t enter the final six.

Just then, an old man who was around the same age as the Red Ghost King commented, “Red Ghost King, who do you think is better, Liu Dongtian or your disciple Ying Shaotian?”

The Red Ghost King didn’t even hesitate to answer, “Of course Ying Shaotian is better!”

“Is that so? Then I hope Ying Shaotian fights hard, or you will have to kneel down in front of a woman. You would become the laughingstock of the Ancient Demon Domain if that happened, hahaha!” The old man laughed without care.

“Void Flare King, don’t you dare laugh at my misfortune!” The Red Ghost King’s mustache curled up from anger.

Ying Shaotian and Liu Dongtian started their fight. Ying Shaotian was going to be his opponent in the end, so Long Chen observed closely.

Ying Shaotian was indeed strong. He used the Wind Riding Sword Finger the moment the battle started, but Liu Dongtian was no pushover. His techniques clashed with Ying Shaotian’s repeatedly. They were almost evenly matched.

Both of them were stronger than regular Eighth Passage Stage cultivators, so their battle was intense. They sprinted across the arena and launched attacks one after another while defending against their opponent’s attacks flawlessly. Their battle was nothing short of incredible.

The crowd strained their necks from trying to spectate the battle. None of them wished to miss even a single detail.

Half an hour later, the two of them were tired. At the final moment, Ying Shaotian endured and knocked his opponent off the arena to take the victory. He didn’t forget to taunt Long Chen before collapsing on the arena himself.

“Shaotian!” The Red Ghost King ran down to the arena and took his disciple for treatment. Thankfully, there was some time before his next fight, enough for Ying Shaotian to recover.

Ying Shaotian had successfully entered the top six. If Long Chen and Liu Yiyi both failed to advance, the Clear Shallows Pavilion’s placement would become lower than the Red Ghost Pavilion’s. In that case, Liu Yiyi would have to marry Ying Shaotian.

After Ying Shaotian was transported away from the arena, Demon General Typhoon announced the fourth fight. Long Chen was number seven, so he went up to the arena. He wasn’t sure who his opponent would be.

Chen Feng’s face fell when he saw Long Chen walking up. It was clear that he wasn’t paired with Long Chen.

“It’s Jiang Cheng! He can easily defeat someone at the Seventh Passage Stage. As long as he gets paired with one, he will definitely win! But there’s one person at the Eighth Passage Stage and another at the Ninth Passage Stage amongst the remaining five ...”

“Then whether he can advance into the next half of the stage or not will depend on luck.”

“Yeah. Luck alone won’t get you into the top three, not to mention first place!”

Everyone was discussing and chatting when Long Chen entered the arena. He knew that his luck was good because one of the other Seventh Passage Stage disciples was approaching.

“Red City Pavilion, Yan Cheng!”

“Clear Shallows Pavilion, Jiang Cheng!”

Long Chen was cordial to the opponent since the other party was respectful to him. Both of them introduced themselves and started the fight the moment the signal came from Demon General Typhoon.

Someone at the Seventh Passage Stage would never be Long Chen’s opponent. As the others had expected, the disciple was defeated in just a few breaths. Long Chen didn’t hurt the disciple, so Yan Cheng was grateful for that.

“Thank you for your mercy. I, Yan Cheng, admit defeat!”

Afterwards, Yan Cheng returned to where the Red City Pavilion was stationed. He was not at all resentful about losing to Long Chen.

Even the Red Ghost King was frowning at Long Chen’s luck. The previous disciples had all fought tooth and nail against each other, but Long Chen had won with ease. The Clear Shallows King laughed happily.

“What are you happy about? Luck might be important, but you can’t win without strength. Do you think you will be the one to have the final laugh? Shaotian will definitely enter the top three. As long as he enters the top three spots, the Red Ghost Pavilion will be above yours!” Red Ghost King grunted.

But he had spoken so quietly that no one heard him.

Long Chen left the arena after the fight.

“Yiyi, if you are matched with Chen Feng, just admit defeat. But if you are matched against the Eighth Passage Stage cultivator, you can try your best. You can always admit defeat if you can’t win. But if you get paired with the Seventh Passage Stage disciple ... I will have to congratulate you,” Long Chen informed Liu Yiyi.

She nodded. “I understand.”

She felt her heart flutter from his sweetness. She knew he was looking out for her.

Demon General Typhoon announced the start of the fifth battle. The ninth contestant was a nervous-looking disciple. He stared at Chen Feng and the others in anticipation.

Both Long Chen and the Clear Shallows King smiled. Not only was Long Chen lucky, Liu Yiyi was too. She was paired against the Seventh Passage Stage disciple.

“How could this be? I can’t believe how coincidental the pairings are! They are all fighting against someone on their own level!”

“This is unfair! How did they do it?”

“It must be a scam!”

Because of the lots, three of the Eighth Passage Stage cultivators were destined to lose. They had the strength to enter the top six spots, but they had lost due to luck. The people from the losers’ pavilions were grumbling because their ranking would drop once their oldest disciples lost.

Their shouts got louder, especially after Liu Yiyi entered the stage. That meant the final Eighth Passage Stage disciple would have to fight against Chen Feng! That was certain defeat for that poor disciple. He had wanted to attain glory for his pavilion, but now he was destined to lose.

Even Demon General Typhoon was feeling helpless.

“Quiet!” Jiang Wushang stood up and scolded them. His voice generated a shockwave that shook everyone’s brains. Everyone became quiet and stared at Jiang Wushang.

“We are the Ancient Demon Domain, one of the strongest entities of the Divine Martial Empire. The assessment is naturally fair. Don’t you think you are embarrassing the Ancient Demon Domain by complaining here? Luck plays an integral role since we decided to do it through drawing lots! Luck is important because you can die if you’re unlucky! If you are not content with the results, come talk to me directly! Don’t disrupt the assessment! Typhoon, start the fight!”

Jiang Wushang’s voice was very loud, so everyone heard him clearly. They remained quiet and said nothing.

They just wanted to express their discontent since it was impossible to cheat at drawing lots. Everything that had happened today had been purely coincidental.

No one complained again after Jiang Wushang said that.

He was right. In combat, those who were unlucky would die.

Jiang Wushang was the son of the Demon Emperor, meaning he had access to resources unthinkable to most people. Wasn’t that luck too?

After that little interruption, Liu Yiyi started her fight. She was considered the strongest Seventh Passage Stage disciple because of her King-tier martial techniques. Normally, not even those at the Eighth Passage Stage had one. Her opponent soon crumbled under her Demonic Illusion.

The final six spots had been decided swiftly.
