Silence filled the entire venue.
Anyone looking towards the ring had a look of fear on their face.
The scene on the ring at this moment was extremely strange. Gu Qianqiu, with a skinny face and a hunched figure, raised his hand and licked his index finger. His smile looked extremely sinister. It was hard to imagine that this was a person under twenty years old.
Opposite him, there lay a thinner man who seemed to have fallen into a coma. He was the eighth of the Pingnan Ten Elites.
Zhou Xuan looked at Gu Qianqiu with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.
He had to treat it with caution, because this guy's methods were too weird.
When Gu Qianqiu and another person took the stage, everything was still normal. Most people predicted that Gu Qianqiu would be stronger. After all, Gu Qianqiu was at the peak of the eighth heaven and was much ahead of that person. There was basically no suspense in the battle.
However……
The process of the battle was incredible.
Waves of black mist emerged from Gu Qianqiu's body, covering his opponent until the black mist dissipated.
The man collapsed to the ground, his whole body wasted, and he fell into a coma!
Everyone fell silent, shocked and speechless. They had no idea what methods Gu Qianqiu had used to torture one of the top ten heroes of Pingnan into such a state. It was simply unimaginable.
Even Zhou Xuan couldn't see through what was happening in the black mist.
"This guy's methods..."
On the high platform, when several big shots saw Gu Qianqiu's methods, their expressions changed and they frowned slightly.
With their advanced cultivation, they could naturally see through the things under the black mist. The black mist was clearly a strange technique, and it actually absorbed the man's flesh and blood. In the end, it created such a horrifying scene.
The most frightening thing is that none of them know what kind of technique this is.
Wang Lei's voice was very low: "Who is this person from? His methods are so exaggerated."
Song Nan pursed his lips and responded in a low voice: "This person has only appeared in Pingnan City in the past two years. Except for Tongtian Bang, few people know his whereabouts. Where did he learn from? I don't know. I don’t know.”
"This is like the method of the Demon Sect."
Sword Master Songqing's eyes were slightly cold, seemingly indifferent.
The hearts of several big shots were extremely shaken. The so-called Demon Sects were some shady sects in Da Qin. These sects would do anything to increase their strength and often do things that were harmful to the world.
The five major martial arts houses, Broken Dragon Sword Cliff and other holy places of cultivation once worked together to encircle and suppress the Demon Sect, leaving only one Demon Sect alive and almost invisible.
They were reminded by Sword Master Songqing and felt that Gu Qianqiu's methods fit well with the Demon Sect's style.
"How dare the remnants of the Demon Sect show up here?"
Gu Yuebai seemed a little unconcerned: "It must be just some side tactics. The five major martial arts houses of Great Qin and you, Mr. Yan, are all here. If you are a remnant of the Demon Sect, you will definitely not dare to show your face, otherwise you will be seeking death."
When the others heard this, they also believed it.
Sword Master Songqing was not relieved, his expression was cold.
"The actions of the Demon Sect have always been difficult for ordinary people to understand. However, if they appear, they must have a plan. This person appears here because he wants to enter the five major martial arts houses of Great Qin. You must pay special attention."
"I remember the words of the Sword Master."
Li Yanxing was a swordsman, so he naturally respected Sword Master Songqing very much. He nodded immediately with a scrutinizing look in his eyes.
"Gu Qianqiu... wins."
Song Nan's expression was subtle as he finally declared Gu Qianqiu's victory.
Gu Qianqiu didn't seem to notice the subtle looks in the eyes of the big shots. He walked down the ring and stood in a corner of the venue. Only then did many people notice that this man was extraordinary in strength, but extremely lonely and low-key.
So many people had not noticed Gu Qianqiu's existence before.
"The final ten people for the Pingnan City Competition have been finalized."
Song Nan exhaled and stood up slowly. Everyone looked at the high platform with expressions full of respect.
The Pingnancheng Competition has finally come to an end.
"The rules of the last round are simpler. The ten of you step onto the final stage, regardless of the rules or time. Until there is only one person standing on the stage, that person will be the final winner."
Song Nan glanced at the audience: "When the winner is decided, the envoys from the five major martial arts houses will finalize the twenty places for promotion."
"Take a break and let's step into the ring together."
As the voice fell, the rules of the final round became clear.
Zhang Xiao's scalp was numb and he couldn't help but sigh: "Zhou Xuan, fortunately I lost this round. I must stand on the same stage with monsters like you. I'm afraid anyone can bully me. It's so embarrassing." ”
Zhou Xuan smiled softly: "It can be over soon."
Zhang Xiao's expression was complicated. The thinking of these monsters was different. They actually wanted the fight to end as soon as possible.
The rest time passed quickly and slowly.
The ten people who won the last round stepped onto the ring together, stood in each corner, and distanced themselves slightly. Some of them looked calm and even closed their eyes to rest, while others looked nervous and were constantly observing their surroundings.
Zhou Xuan was neither of the two. He calmly observed the people around him.
"It's interesting. Wei Changyuan, Leng Ningxue, Qin Yan, Xiao He, and Liang Yu, more than half of the top ten in Pingnan are standing at the end. Pingnan Academy is indeed full of talents. If you say they are geniuses, they are real geniuses."
"Counting the top twenty, all the top ten in Pingnan are here... No, Tang Yulong was an accident, but he was just unlucky."
"The people from the Wei family are also very good, two of them are in the top ten."
"The Tang family is unlucky this time. There is only one person, and his strength is average."
"The biggest dark horse this year is probably Zhou Xuan, and the guy from the small family actually stood at the end. But Zhou Xuan is really strong, and that person's strength is very average. Mainly because of good luck, he got a bye in the last round. ”
The audience couldn't stop talking as they watched the ten people who finally took the stage.
Everyone can see that the strength of the ten people is relatively similar, which is more reasonable, but some people always have good luck.
In comparison.
Liang Yu, the second person in the Tang family and the seventh person in Pingna City, as well as the person who got a bye, and Wei Zhuo, there is obviously a big gap in strength with the others. Many people speculate that these four people should be the earliest. Step down.
Of course, this is just speculation.
There are so many melee situations and they are so complicated that no one can say for sure.
"The final battle begins!"
Song Nan's eyes were cast downwards, and his voice echoed, indicating that the final battle of the Pingnancheng Competition had officially begun.
However, none of the ten people made any move.
Wei Changyuan closed his eyes, obviously not intending to take the initiative.
Zhou Xuan glanced at him and was not prepared to take action directly. Qin Yan and other relatively powerful people were a little wary and did not take action immediately.
"Brother, how about we join forces?"
The member of the small family's eyes flickered, and he took the initiative to send a message to Liang Yu and the people of the Tang family.
