“Are you also from Cerulean Abyss Institute? Want to avenge him?” Night Orchid shrugged, “Then make your move, you’re welcome anytime.”
“You…” The old man frowned.
“A warning for you, take your people down immediately, don’t violate the rules of the competition!” At this moment, the chief referee standing by the ring interrupted him.
“If you dare to make a move on the stage, I guarantee you will regret it!”
As he spoke, a strong pressure swept over, enveloping the old man.
To ensure the fairness of the Dragon and Phoenix Ranking competition, the capital invited ten mid-God-Emperor Realm experts as chief referees. And they were given great authority. Anyone who violated the rules of the competition would face severe consequences, ranging from cultivation base destruction to death.
The old man took a deep breath. His cultivation level only reached the peak of the later stage of the War God-Emperor realm, while the chief referees had already reached the War God-Emperor Perfection Realm. Naturally, he dared not act recklessly.
“You will pay for your actions!” The old man looked at Night Orchid, gritting his teeth, then helped the unconscious man off the stage.
“Well done!” Not long after Night Orchid stepped down from the ring, Billy smiled at her.
“Thanks for boss’s praise!” Night Orchid smiled.
“How dare you ruin my disciple’s cultivation, surrender yourself to death!” At this moment, a figure flashed towards Night Orchid. It was the old man from Cerulean Abyss Institute.
Frustrated, he didn’t dare to make a move on the stage because he feared the referees’ strength. Now, off the stage, he was beyond their jurisdiction.
“You seek death!” Ivy exclaimed.
She flicked her wrist, and an extremely sharp sword energy shot out like lightning.
“Hmm?” The old man obviously didn’t expect that someone of this level would attack him. A look of horror appeared on his face. Immediately, he mobilized all his strength and tried to block Ivy’s sword energy with a palm, attempting to stop the attack. However, he clearly overestimated his own strength.
After tearing through his defense, the sword energy pierced through his left scapula, creating a fist-sized blood hole. Blood sprayed out immediately.
“Ugh…” The old man groaned and was forced back more than ten steps. Without hesitation, he turned and rushed to the side.
“I spare your life to give you a chance to admit your mistake voluntarily. Are you thinking of escaping?” Ivy’s voice echoed. After speaking, she changed the topic. “Disturbing the order of the arena, with serious circumstances, deserves death!”
As her voice fell, a sword energy, a hundred meters long, attacked the old man. Without any suspense, the old man, who had just run out dozens of meters, hadn’t reacted yet and felt a cold sensation on his neck. The next moment, his head soared into the sky, and blood sprayed like a fountain.
A gasp of cold air sounded from the surrounding audience, each with a horrified look at Ivy. Such a peerlessly beautiful woman from Secret Essences Sect actually possessed such powerful martial skills, and her decisiveness in killing was astonishing. Even the chief referee on the ring showed a surprised expression.
“Master…” In a short while, three or four men and women shouted and ran towards the old man’s corpse.
“I emphasize once again, there are rules in the competition, and anyone who violates them will be killed without mercy!” Ivy’s voice spread around the ring.
“Didn’t expect she would come too!” At this time, in the audience area opposite Billy’s trio, a noble young man recognized Ivy and casually said.
“Conner, who’s she? Do you know her?”A blue-robed man next to the young man asked.
“Miss Chandler from the Secret Essences Sect, one of the Four Beauties of Ancient Martial Arts!” The young man whose surname was Conner responded.
“She was Ivy Chandler?” The man in the blue robe showed a touch of amazement. “Indeed, one of the Four Beauties, not bad!”
After a slight pause, he asked, “Conner, are you not going to pursue her?”
“If you are interested, you can try!” the man smiled faintly.
“Conner, don’t tease me!” The man in the blue robe twitched his mouth. “This level of woman, I can’t handle her at all. At most, I can only lie in bed and imagine!” he continued with a wry smile.
“At least you have some self-awareness. Do you know who the man beside her is?”
“Her boyfriend?” The man in the blue robe continued, “Who is he? Conner, do you know?”
“His is Gardner, from the Western Region!”
Upon hearing this, the man in the blue robe took a deep breath and asked, “Conner, are you saying he is that Commander Gardner?”
“Otherwise?”
“Didn’t rumors say that Ivy Chandler, the young lady of Secret Essences Sect, is infatuated with Commander Gardner? Now it seems to be true!” The man in the blue robe continued, “But, Commander Gardner already has a family, right?”
“Just rumors, how can you take it seriously?”
“What do you mean, Conner?” The man in the blue robe continued.
“Do you like gossip so much?”
“I’m just curious!” The man in the blue robe smiled awkwardly. “By the way, didn’t I hear that Commander Gardner was seriously injured? But he doesn’t look like he has any injuries now…” he added.
“Continue watching the match!” Archer Conner interrupted the man’s words. “Whether he is injured or not will be revealed when he comes on stage!”
While the two were talking, the duel on the stage continued.
“Next, please draw two participants with numbers 1-100.” After another half an hour, the referee announced loudly.
“Haha, finally it’s my turn!”
As the referee’s words fell, a handsome and unrestrained young man laughed twice, and he jumped onto the stage.
“I am the Jade-Faced Divine Dragon. I wonder which fellow has drawn the same stage with me?” After arriving on the stage, the young man bowed to the surrounding audience.
“Is he the recently rising star Jade-Faced Divine Dragon of the Ancient Martial Arts World? So handsome!” A young woman in the audience couldn’t help but shine in her eyes.
“Yeah, I didn’t expect him to be so young. I wonder if he has a girlfriend?” Another female companion’s eyes also flashed with enthusiasm.
“You two are really infatuated. He is a rising star in the Ancient Martial Arts World. How could he look at you?” Another woman beside them rolled her eyes.
“…”
Seeing the Jade-Faced Divine Dragon, many young ladies in the audience continuously threw flirtatious glances at the stage. Jade-Faced Divine Dragon seemed to enjoy the feeling of being admired by the masses, raising his head and chest, smiling at the audience around the stage.
“Ivy, do you want him to swell up a bit more?” Night Orchid sat in her seat and looked at Ivy with a smile.
Ivy drew a number, and it was 1-100!
