Chapter 813: The Top Three!
Edited by RED
The Ghost Clan, or more precisely the Ancient Ghost Clan, used to be the ally of the Gu Gu Clan. They used to share everything but women!
But then something had happened tens of thousands of years before. The Ghost Clan had become quite weak and in the end they didnât have enough level three high-level Supreme Gods. The leader of the Gu Gu Clan, Gu Jin Zeâs father, had made the decision to annex the Ghost Clan.
But he had failed. The leader of the Ghost Clan had understood his plot and the two clans had started fighting, but the Ghost Clan was too weak. They had lost, and then they had been destroyed.
The Ghost Clan had no backup plan, so why was Prince Ghostâs Qi so similar to the Qi of the Ghost Clan?
Everybody was scared of Prince Ghostâs gloomy Qi. They had the impression that they were falling straight to Hell and had no way to free themselves.
Lin Fengâs curiosity was getting more and more aroused. Prince Ghost definitely wasnât a mere independent cultivator. Independent cultivators couldnât be so powerful. Lin Feng had never thought of himself as an independent cultivator. He had also relied on other peopleâs resources and power, but those people werenât in Gods Country.
âThereâs a huge difference between him and Prince Ghost⌠Itâs another person,â said Jing Wu Hen suddenly.
Lin Fengâs expression changed quickly, he looked at Jing Wu Hen and asked, âWu Hen, whatâs going on?â
âHis Qi his similar, itâs gloomier. He also has the strength of the level three high-level Supreme God layer, which is amazing.
âLast year, Prince Demon, Prince Ghost and I were in the top three. There wasnât a huge difference between the three of us. We were all medium-level Supreme Gods.
âThis year, Prince Demon and Prince Ghostâs Qi is already incredibly powerful. Both of them are level three high-level Supreme Gods now.
âTherefore, I have the feeling that they have an incredible secret,â said Jing Wu Hen doubtfully. Even though Jing Wu Hen himself had trump cards which he hadnât used, he was still only a medium-level Supreme God.
Jing Wu Hen knew that breaking through to the high-level Supreme God layer was easy, but because of the Yuan Hallâs secret, he had to rely on himself. He didnât believe that Prince Ghost could progress so quickly without any help, or without a powerful background.
When Lin Feng heard Jing Wu Hen, he nodded agreement. Prince Ghost couldnât have become so strong without any help. At that moment, Prince Ghost looked like the god of Hell.
The fight started again. Lin Feng and Jing Wu Hen raised their eyes again. Prince Ghostâs Qi was extremely oppressive.
Prince Ghost raised his fists and started throwing punches at Gu Tian Aoâs chest. Gu Tian Ao used his full strength to protect himself, but Prince Ghostâs attack still worked and Gu Tian Ao was blown a thousand meters away.
The fight was already over. Prince Ghost won.
Prince Ghost was in the top six. All the leaders were astonished. They couldnât believe it. They all thought Prince Ghost was a nobody compared to Gu Tian Ao.
âIt seems like Prince Ghost wants to regain the honor and dignity they had back in the days,â said Lun Bi Sheng Tian, sighing sadly. He couldnât do much about it.
Lun Bi Sheng Tian coughed and then shouted, âAlright, since Lin Feng and Dao Ling gave up, the top six is composed of Garuá¸a, Chu Li, Prince Ghost, Prince Demon, Du Wen Ze and Sun Hao. You are in the top six.
âNow, there will be a fight between two groups of three. The members of the group who wins will be in the top three.â
âAfter that, the one who defeats the two others will be the champion. Alright, draw cards now,â said Lun Bi Sheng Tian. He raised his left hand, and a box containing six cards appeared. He had a strange expression.
Garuá¸a drew a card first. Chu Li and Prince Ghost also drew cards, and then the others followed.
âEverybody, look at your cards,â Lun Bi Sheng Tian told the six cultivators quickly.
Garuá¸a looked grave and serious as she looked at her card.
The list appeared in Lun Bi Sheng Tianâs hand. He immeditely asked himself who would win the fight.
Lin Feng looked at the names on the list.
First team: Garuá¸a, Du Wen Ze, Chu Li!
Second team: Sun Hao, Prince Ghost, Prince Demon!
Both teams were extremely powerful.
Lin Feng had no idea who would win, either. He also asked himself many questions. What was the link between him, Prince Ghost, and the Yin Territory? Why did Chu Li look at him in such a way? Who was Chu Li?
Lin Feng initially intended to leave the Lun Bi Empire, but now he had too many doubts, so he didnât want to leave to quickly.
âIt seems itâs going to be another feast,â Jing Wu Hen murmured when he saw the two teams.
âLin Feng, you withdrew from the Competition, and you did too Dao Ling, otherwise, Sun Hao and Du Wen Ze wouldnât be on the list. If you had been in the teams, the fight would have been even fiercer,â said Jeston smiling knowingly.
Lin Feng smiled, but didnât say anything. He didnât care about the Competition at all. If it hadnât been for Xie Dian, he wouldnât have come at all!
âTake a break first, weâll continue in the afternoon!â declared Lun Bi Sheng Tian.
It was noon, they would continue in two hours. Lun Bi Sheng Tian had changed his mind; he would allow people to come and watch this time, so he needed time to call them.
ââ
Half an hour later, there were billions of people there to watch the finals. The whole mountain was packed with people.
Lin Feng flew up in the air to watch. He smiled when he saw the gigantic crowd. Some people just wanted to talk and laugh, but they didnât dare because Huang Dang Mountain was a holy place for the Lun Bi Empire. It was an ancient and holy place.
â
The two hours passed quickly. The atmosphere was solemn. Lin Feng, Jing Wu Hen, and the others chose a nice spot to watch from. Lin Feng was paying attention to Chu Li and Prince Ghost. He wanted to see how strong they could be.
âStart!â shouted Lun Bi Sheng Tian.
The crowd never thought that less than a minute after the beginning of the fight, someone would be blown away. The whole crowd was astonished.
âSun Hao, the genius from Ao Lai City was blown away in one punch by Chu Li?â said Chen Guang Yu after swallowing. He couldnât believe it. How incredible! Chu Li was really terrifying!
âAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!â
However, he was still lost in thought when the whole crowd heard another scream. Everybody saw a silhouette fall from the sky and then,
bam
! A ten-meter crater appeared at the top of Huang Dang Mountain.
Prince Ghost had kicked Du Wen Ze and smashed him far away.
Astonishing! The crowd paled. They imagined what would have happened to them if they had been Du Wen Ze. They would have probably exploded instantly!
âPrince Ghost is so terrifying.â
âYes. Maybe heâs going to be the champion.â
âI donât think so. Chu Li is probably going to be the champion. I hope heâll win!â
âGood luck, Chu Li!â
âGood luck, Chu Li!â
Suddenly, billions of people started shouting and wishing Chu Li good luck.
Chu Li frowned and glanced around, but then quickly focused on the fights again.
Prince Ghost and he stopped fighting, while Garuá¸a and Prince Demon continued. They were both level three high-level Supreme Gods.
Chu Li glanced at Prince Demon impatiently. If he eliminated Prince Demon, then heâd be the champion because he would have eliminated two people.
Prince Ghost thought the same. If he eliminated Garuá¸a, then heâd be the champion!
The two of them stood up at the same time. Chu Li charged Prince Demon. Prince Demon charged Garuá¸a. They both released terrifying Qi. They only had one thing in mind: to rank first!
Garuá¸a and Prince Demonâs expressions changed drastically. They hadnât thought the others would attack them at the last moment!
âLetâs join hands to defeat one of them. We can finish in the top three!â Garuá¸a reacted quickly. If she had known the two others would attack, she would have done everything differently. The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behindâŚ
{Translatorâs Note: idiom from Daoist classic Zhuangzi, it means that a short-sighted person is completely ignorant to imminent danger in his pursuit of close gains}
âAlright,â said Prince Demon. He wasnât stupid. He knew that Garuá¸aâs suggestion was the best. If they didnât join hands, the two others would eliminate them!
