My Master Knows It All-Chapter 549 - 189_4

And now, the Hundred Peaks Sect still had ten people left, meaning that the ten disciples from the Hundred Peaks Sect would face ten opponents from different Immortal Sects.

Murmurs of discussion rose among the crowd.

The battle for the top sixty-four in the Gathering of Immortals Martial Competition officially began.

The platforms were still two in number, and beneath both stages, the referees’ voices rang out simultaneously.

"On the Alpha Stage, Sword Sect’s Wu Jianzi is up against Hundred Peaks Sect’s Five Elements Peak, Wu Xiang."

"On the Beta Stage, from the Hundred Peaks Sect, Vermilion Bird Peak’s Li Ke, versus Sun and Moon Sect’s Qin Yao."

As the referee’s voice fell, almost everyone’s gaze on the entire mountain fell upon the position of the Hundred Peaks Sect.

"Although the Hundred Peaks Sect has many disciples left, it’s a bit too much that they are involved in two battles right as it begins."

"Wu Jianzi is a figure who has reached the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, while Wu Xiang from Five Elements Peak, despite also being at Perfect Completion Golden Core, has only nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills. This battle has no suspense whatsoever."

"The real highlight is the battle between Immortal Qin Yao and Immortal Li Ke!"

"Both immortals are from the top ten Immortal Sects, and they’re both ranked within the top ten on the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty’s Most Desired List. They have always been compared, and now it’s their first direct confrontation!"

"You’re out of date with your news. Our Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty’s Most Desired List no longer includes Immortal Li Ke. People from Hundred Peaks have already said that Li Ke found her Dao companion; he’s Peak Master Cao."

"While Immortal Li Ke may not be on the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty’s Most Desired List anymore, the latest list now features two additional female disciples from Hundred Peaks."

"You’re talking about Azure Pheasant Peak’s Ling Xi and Yan Yourong, right?"

"No, not Yan Yourong." A disciple who clearly paid close attention to the Most Desired List began to enlighten his fellow sect members, "Ling Xi is not only on the Most Desired List but has also directly entered the top five.

After all, her Cultivation Base is high enough, she has beauty, and she also seems very gentle. Besides... everyone understands. I feel that it’s only a matter of time. If she had more time and her reputation grew even greater, entering the top three wouldn’t be a problem at all.

As for Yan Yourong, her Cultivation Base may be high, but she comes across as too icy and fierce, so she is not on the top ten of the Most Desired List."

A curious disciple asked from the side, "If it’s not Yan Yourong, then who could it be?"

"Of course, it’s Yi Sheng!" freēnovelkiss.com

"Yi Sheng? How could it be her? She only has nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills, and before yesterday, no one knew she was that strong, no one knew she had the Fire of Departure. A single day isn’t enough for her to break into the top ten."

The disciple who just spoke looked at the questioner with a mixture of frustration and disappointment, "Junior brother, you really have cultivated yourself silly. It’s the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty’s Most Desired List, not a list based on Cultivation Base.

Who is Yi Sheng? Her father is the wealthiest man in the Guardian Immortal Imperial Dynasty. Her Cultivation Base is high enough already—what’s the problem with entering the Most Desired List?"

"This..."

Amidst the fervent discussions, from the direction of Hundred Peaks, Wu Xiang and Li Ke flew down to their respective stages.

Both stages began their battles at the same time, but more people were focused on the Beta Stage.

Leaving aside the match between Wu Jianzi and Wu Xiang, which seemed predictable, even if it was a duel between two figures at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, the crowd would still be engrossed in the fight between Li Ke and Qin Yao.

On the Alpha Stage, Wu Xiang watched his opponent across the platform: Wu Jianzi from the Sword Sect, who, despite being a cultivator of the Sword Dao, did not show any sharp or aggressive demeanor. Wu Xiang, however, did not exhibit any sense of bitterness or helplessness as he looked at Wu Jianzi, his gaze couldn’t be more ordinary—as if he were facing the most commonplace opponent.

As early as yesterday, he was aware that in the round of sixty-four, he would inevitably face an opponent who had reached the Ten Different Phenomena Golden Elixir Great Perfection, with the only difference being who that opponent would be.

Quickly, behind him, ten Golden Cores, each manifesting the power he had condensed, appeared. It was clear that of these ten Golden Cores, nine possessed special phenomena representing metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Unfortunately, while there were two Golden Cores representing metal, wood, water, and fire phenomena, there was only one for the earth phenomenon.

His opponent, Wu Jianzi, had ten Golden Cores rising behind him as well, each one possessing a phenomenon, and in these phenomena were swords!

Longsword, broken sword, shortsword, broadsword, flexible sword... Various kinds of swords!

Ten Golden Cores of sword phenomena combined into one massive Golden Core, appearing like a colossal ring of swords flying behind his head.

From the direction of Hundred Peaks Sect, Lv Chaoqiong watched the nine Abnormal Phenomenon Golden Pills behind Wu Xiang and shook her head slightly in disappointment before speaking to Cao Zhen, "Five Elements Peak, although it’s the second-ranking peak within our Hundred Peaks Sect, specializes in the Five Elements. Each of these elements, taken alone, cannot be considered top-notch.

For example, in terms of fire alone, Five Elements Peak cannot compare to Vermilion Bird Peak and Azure Pheasant Peak... To reach the highest realm and possess the greatest battle strength in Five Elements Peak, one must cultivate all five elements together.

What truly makes Five Elements Peak formidable is the total mastery and integration of all the Five Elements, resulting in a terrifying burst of combat power when they’re fused together."
