Chapter 857: Chapter 439: The Terrifying Xu Yuan_3

…

On the fourth floor of Divine Fire Tower, Li Yuan was fighting with all his might.

“Kill!”

“Kill! Kill!” Li Yuan’s battle intention soared to the sky, yet deep inside he maintained absolute calmness.

The Seven Emotions and Six Desires flowed through his heart, but his inner self remained absolutely still; this is the pursuit of the Six Realms of Illusion in tempering the Spiritual Will.

Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!

Thirty-six Phantom Bodies flickered in and out of existence, helping to conceal Li Yuan’s real body among them, avoiding the attacks of the Divine Fire Warriors.

The Spear Technique was sharp and aggressive!

His movement technique was akin to a ghost!

“Booming~” The endless Divine Fire Warriors conducted a frenzied attack. Each one possessed magnificent and vigorous energy, capable of invoking the Mysteries of the Law with their weapons unleashing tremendous might.

At this moment, every single Divine Fire Warrior’s strength had far exceeded a Semi-Divine Limit Expert and was approaching that of a Pseudo-God.

In the vast onslaught of attacks, with each influencing the other, the might in Li Yuan’s Heaven and Earth River Domain was rapidly dwindling, forcing him to continuously contract his domain to suppress the Divine Fire Warriors that were closing in.

Nine Yellow Dragons? They had been scattered by the combined strikes of the Divine Fire Warriors several times.

But most importantly!

The entire hall had a maximum diameter of just 100 kilometers, leaving Li Yuan with very limited space to maneuver.

“If my Origin Power cultivation reached the 49.9 level! I could significantly boost my capabilities across all areas and likely pass the fourth floor,” Li Yuan thought to himself. “Now? I fear I might fail.”

The difficulty of each floor in the Divine Fire Tower continuously skyrocketed.

“Boom! Boom!”

Hundreds of Divine Fire Warriors kept on attacking, and even Li Yuan’s movement technique couldn’t avoid being hit… one mistake could lead to successive hits.

Causing the energy contained within Li Yuan’s Protective Spirit Light to rapidly decrease.

“Whoosh!” Unable to dodge in time, another ruthless strike grazed past Li Yuan’s true body, followed by the complete dispersal of his Protective Spirit Light, and in an instant, Li Yuan vanished from this hall.

Li Yuan’s final score was 3488 Points.

Ranked 214th in points!

…

Phew!

Li Yuan felt a blur before his eyes, and he gently landed on the ground from the space vortex filled with streams of fire.

“Hmm?” Li Yuan immediately sensed the gazes of envy, jealousy, and admiration in the grand hall.

“Truly formidable!”

“No wonder he could compete with Jing Kui. Just barely becoming Semi-Divine and yet he’s able to surge to rank 214.”

“Indeed staggering!”

“His strength has improved too fast. I really wonder how he’s been cultivating.” Many Semi-Divine Flying Heaven were discussing through voice transmission.

Although Li Yuan’s rank of 214 was still a fair distance from the ‘top hundred’ bet with Bai Feng… initially, no one believed Li Yuan could win.

The rank of 214 was enough to shock everyone.

Li Yuan had returned to the ranks of powerhouses such as Yue Shan and Yang Di from Abyss Country; they naturally gathered together.

“Xu Yuan, brother, well done.” Yue Shan revealed a smile: “I was worried before, but it turns out you truly have the strength. To surge to rank 214 on your first try, in the ranking battles five years from now, you’re sure to break into the top hundred.”

“Hmm.”

“Although you didn’t win the bet this time, nobody will dare underestimate you now,” Yang Di also said with a smile: “Look, even Bai Feng has nothing to say.”

In their opinion, if Li Yuan hadn’t broken into the top thousand, it would have been very embarrassing to lose the bet.

But rank 214? Losing the bet could still be accepted.

“Yue Shan, brother, Yang Di, brother.” Li Yuan said with a smile: “The second stage hasn’t started yet, have you already decided that I would lose?”

Yue Shan and Yang Di were both surprised.

From Li Yuan’s words, did he still have confidence in breaking into the top hundred?

Without waiting for them to ask.

“The first stage of the Semi-Divine ranking battle has come to an end,” a deep voice already came from the high platform, echoing throughout the grand hall, instantly silencing it.

Chi Yang True God glanced over the crowd and said slowly: “Those who have scored in the top thousand will enter the second round.”

“The battle rules are simple, randomly divided into ten groups based on points rank, each group consisting of one hundred people.”

“Within each group, one hundred people will battle in sequence. Victory earns 1 point, no points for a loss, and the top thirty in each group will become the top three hundred on the Semi-Divine List.”

“The top ten in each group will be among the Semi-Divine List’s top hundred.”

“The first and second place in each group will enter the top twenty to decide the final top ten,” Chi Yang True God said deeply.

All those who had made it into the top thousand tensed up.

Round battles are the most brutal! Yet extremely fair!

Want to break into the top hundred or even the top ten? Then defeat the majority of Semi-Divines in your group.

Whoosh~

With a wave of Chi Yang True God’s hand, the massive space vortex in the void dissipated, replaced by densely packed Void Arenas, a total of one hundred.

Enough for two groups of Semi-Divine powerhouses to battle simultaneously.

“Phew!”

With another wave of Chi Yang True God’s hand, the giant screen in the void flashed, quickly dividing into ten groups, each group with exactly one hundred names.

Every name had its score reset to 0!

“Jing Kui is in the first group.”

“Dong Pan is in the second group.”

…

“Bai Feng’s rank is around ten-plus, also in the second group.”

“The top ten scorers from Divine Fire Tower each entered one of the ten groups, those ranked eleven to twenty were also scattered across the ten groups…” Many Semi-Divine Flying Heaven couldn’t help but look up.

The grouping by point rankings ensured that each group’s strength was very balanced and fair.

On average, each group had 1-2 Saint Heirs.

“I am ranked 214, placed in the second group,” Li Yuan’s gaze swept over the giant screen: “Within group two, my ranking by points is 22… if I wish to advance into the top two of my group to compete for the final top ten, I’ll have to strive for an undefeated battle.”

Only an unbroken string of victories could ensure success.

However, in Li Yuan’s group two, with Dong Pan and Bai Feng both being Saint Heirs, the difficulty of remaining undefeated was self-evident.

“Bai Feng!” Li Yuan thoughtfully turned his head and coincidentally locked eyes with Bai Feng.”
