"Da Ri actually admitted defeat!"
"This Li Bin is really lucky. He is obviously not in good condition at the moment. If Da Ri really fights him to the death, he can at least fight to the death, even if he is not 100% sure to defeat him. However, Da Ri Saint chose this time to repay the Shadow Forest for saving his life. The two had a fake match, and after one move, Da Ri Saint admitted defeat, letting Li Bin survive for nothing."
"He's already fought one match, so he has the right to refuse any challenge next time... What a pity, he has already performed a secret technique, which has further damaged his vitality. This is the best time to defeat him."
Various discussions continued to be heard among the crowd.
Not everyone has such good eyesight to see that Li Yin is actually not weaker than the Son of the Sun.
Some people even know that if Li Yin, who has reached the limits of the human body, were to fight with the Son of the Sun, he would have a greater chance of winning.
But even though they saw it, they did not come out to comment too much.
In their opinion, even if Li Bin finally defeated the Son of the Sun by relying on strength close to the limit of the human body, he would definitely be seriously injured, and in the next battle, he might not even be able to deal with several quasi-martial saints.
Therefore, in order to repay his gratitude, the Son of the Sun withdrew bravely, and Li Bin avoided a fierce battle for nothing, which was a gain in any case.
"The limits of the human body. Didn't Li Pin just break through to the Martial Saint not long ago? How did he reach the limit of the human body?"
Some martial saints gathered together and whispered, "If this trend continues, there is a high possibility that Li Yin will win the championship. The world's number one at the age of 23? I can't imagine it."
"It is said that the Taibai Kingdom has secured a Soul Gathering Pearl for him. This is a treasure that can break the limit and continue to improve Qi and blood. Depending on the physique, some people can use a Soul Gathering Pearl to increase their Qi and blood limit from 40 to 42, or even 43. Li Bin is extremely talented, and this Soul Gathering Pearl will obviously have a significant effect on him."
The Martial Saint next to them responded, "As for Li Bin winning the championship... it is undeniable that he is one of the biggest favorites, but before fighting with Zhao Yushu and Song Wuya, no one dares to guarantee that he will be the first, especially Song Wuya... Before he reached the Martial Saint realm, he had killed Zhou Tianfang with a meteor blade, and now he has achieved the Martial Saint realm... God knows to what extent his combat power will be improved."
The words of this martial saint were recognized by many people.
Master Zhao Yu concentrated all his fighting power on the spear in his hand. Before he took action, no one knew how much effect it would have against Li Bin.
As for Song Wuya...
Even though he hasn't become a Martial Saint, he is qualified to threaten Cheng Yufeng, Zhao Yushi, and the Holy Son of the Sun, and is listed as one of the top five seeded players together with them.
Now I have achieved the status of Martial Saint...
If Li Bin hadn't existed, everyone would have probably unanimously voted for him to compete for first place.
"In any case, this is destined to be the most glorious round of martial arts competition in recent years. Just wait and see. Give the contestants a little more patience, and the final result will be revealed soon."
The martial saints exchanged ideas and soon turned their attention back to the arena.
After stepping down from the arena, Li Pin was still looking at the Son of the Sun.
However, the Martial Saint of the Great Sun Sect did not look away.
Occasionally, the two of them would look at each other, and he would always have a kind expression on his face, and it was hard to find any fault with him.
final…
Li Pin had no choice but to calm down.
"Brother, we won again! We have already won half of the three Martial Saints... Four Martial Saints! The only ones left are Zhao Yushi and the newly-breakthrough Song Wuya."
Li Yunyao said happily.
"Um."
Li Yin responded.
Regarding the victory over the Son of the Sun...
Even off the stage he still felt unsatisfied.
Unfortunately, in a round-robin tournament, you can only challenge opponents you have never challenged before.
He won’t have the chance to challenge the Son of the Sun next time.
For a moment, he had to turn his attention to Master Zhao Yu, who stepped onto the competition stage at the invitation of the host.
As if she had noticed Li Pin's gaze, Master Zhao Yu said calmly, "Don't worry, even if I want to fight you, I will wait until you recover to your best condition and fight you openly. I will never take advantage of you when you are seriously injured."
"Taking advantage of someone's misfortune?"
Li Yin waved his hand: "If you challenge me to a fight now, it is definitely not taking advantage of someone's misfortune."
"Put away your pride. It's normal that you haven't recovered for a day or two after fighting with a martial saint of the same realm. There's no need to deny it for the sake of your so-called pride and face."
Zhao Yushi paused as he spoke: "Of course, if this is a bluffing tactic arranged by your tactical instructor, just ignore what I said."
"?"
Tuoba Feng, who was wondering who Li Bin might choose as his opponent in the next round, looked up blankly.
This contestant Zhao Yushi seemed to have mentioned him just now
"It's really not a tactical arrangement..."
Li Pin was speechless.
Then, he waved his hand and said, "Forget it, challenge whoever you want."
Zhao Yushi nodded and turned his gaze to Cheng Yufeng: "Sword Saint Cheng of the Divine Sword Villa, please come on stage."
"I?"
Cheng Yufeng was stunned.
What's the meaning!
Challenging Li Yin when he was seriously injured was taking advantage of his misfortune, but dealing with him would not be considered as such
"Originally, I thought the world's number one would be decided between you, me, and the Son of the Sun, but the excitement of this world's number one martial arts tournament exceeded my imagination. There are more powerful opponents waiting for me to challenge. It is better to eliminate those irrelevant people first."
Zhao Yushi said calmly.
"No one is waiting!?"
Cheng Yufeng's expression suddenly turned cold.
Zhao Yushi's words...
Directly exclude him from the competition!
He, Cheng Yufeng, the dignified Sword Saint of the Divine Sword Villa, a person who had cultivated the peerless sword spirit before the age of thirty, was actually underestimated by a woman like Master Zhao Yu!
"Master Zhao Yu! Do you really think I'm afraid of you!?"
He stood up slowly: "I admit that Li Pin is indeed very powerful, even though I am slightly inferior to him at the moment, but... I can't deal with Li Pin, but I can't deal with you!? Since you want to die, I will grant your wish!"
He held the sword in one hand, strode forward, and after a few jumps, he went straight onto the arena.
The whole process was light and graceful, as if walking on the wind, that kind of body movement...
It was hard for anyone to imagine that two days ago he would be beaten to the point where his sword and hand were broken by Li Yin.
"Today, I will let you see the Aurora Sword of the Third Young Master of the Excalibur Villa!"
…
Cheng Yufeng has a high fighting spirit.
But his previous battle with Li Bin was ultimately too exhausting.
Not only has his vitality not yet recovered, but he even uses his left hand to hold the sword.
Not to mention that he can only display half of his strength, but at most 60% to 70%.
With this level, he can only handle Yan Hongtu, Nan Lifeng, Ying Long and others with equal strength, not to mention that he is also a Martial Saint, and ranked second in the preliminaries, second only to Li Bin!
Relying on the advantage of the spear in her hand, Cheng Yufeng was suppressed by her from the beginning to the end of the battle and was unable to get close to her.
The battle was stalemate for a moment. Master Zhao Yu seized the opportunity and shot out with his spear like a dragon, instantly breaking Cheng Yufeng's defense.
In the end, the Sword Master of the Excalibur Villa was slammed away along with his sword.
Before he could even stand up, the cold tip of Master Zhao Yu's spear was already against his throat.
…
"It's a pity for Cheng Yufeng."
Many martial saints felt emotional when they saw this scene.
"With Cheng Yufeng's strength, he shouldn't be completely suppressed by Master Zhao Yu. But he had a big fight with Li Pin the day before yesterday and he hasn't recovered from his injuries. Now he's facing Master Zhao Yu, the favorite to win the championship... He's a tough opponent. In this World No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament, it will be difficult for him to make it into the top three and win the Dragon Son spot."
"I can only say that luck is also a part of strength. If Cheng Yufeng's strength were in previous years, it would not be a luxury to win the championship, but this time... I can only say that he was unlucky."
Amidst the discussions, Cheng Yufeng walked down the arena without saying a word.
At this moment, he had an urge to start.
After the battle between Zhao Yushi and Cheng Yufeng ended, the host's eyes did not turn to Yan Hongtu.
But it was Song Wuya.
At this time, Song Wuya had stood up straight.
As a seeded player, he can use his special privileges as a seeded player if necessary - giving priority to challenging opponents!
At this moment he stood up, obviously intending to use this authority.
This scene made everyone look surprised at the same time.
Song Wuya...
Who is this a challenge
Among the other seeded players, the Son of the Sun, Cheng Yufeng, and Zhao Yushi have all made their moves.
He came on stage to challenge ahead of time, could it be...
"Since Song Wuya can't wait to fight his opponent, let's invite him to the stage in advance."
The host's voice echoed in the arena.
When Song Wuya stepped onto the competition stage, he quickly stepped forward and asked, "Contestant Song Wuya, I wonder who you want to challenge..."
Without him asking, Song Wuya had already turned his gaze to Li Yin in the audience: "I said before, it only takes me one day to stabilize the Martial Saint realm. There is no need to wait for three days as you said."
He looked calm, "Right now, my knife has been sharpened to its peak. Is your sword still as sharp as it was when you killed the beast in the preliminaries?"
"You want to challenge me?"
Li Yin looked at him.
"good."
Song Wuya responded affirmatively.
Li Yin quietly sensed the energy in his body...
Although they were a little far away, he could still tell: "Your aura has not yet been fully adjusted. This is not your peak state."
"What Yan Hongtu said makes a lot of sense. Fierce beasts and monsters will never wait for you to sharpen your sword to its sharpest edge before launching an attack! Besides, I just broke through the barrier two days ago. My sword is at its sharpest moment. With the invincible momentum condensed from achieving the status of a martial saint, I am now in my strongest form for the next period of time. Therefore, you don't have to worry about my incomplete state affecting my ability to display my strength!"
Song Wuya said: "Besides, my state is not perfect... and the same is true for you at this moment."
"I'm different."
Li Yin shook his head.
Then, he paused and said, "Although I want to see you at your best, if you insist on challenging me..."
"I insist."
Song Wuya said without hesitation.
"So… "
Li Yin slowly stood up from his seat: "I promise."
