"Yang Qi!"
Hearing the exclamations from the crowd, Wei Yi opened his slightly closed eyes. A gleam of brilliance flashed in the depths of his eyes, and then his gaze fell on Yang Qi.
This was the first time that Wei Yi saw Yang Qi in person. Before this, he had only seen the video of Yang Qi competing in the arena. Although he was unwilling to admit it, Wei Yi knew that if he had practiced for less than three thousand years, or even was only at the early stage of the five-star Martial Emperor, he might not be able to achieve Yang Qi's level!
But now it was a contest between two people, or even a struggle between two factions. Even with his suppressed cultivation, he was much stronger than when he was in the middle stage of the Five-Star Martial Emperor. And because he knew Yang Qi's methods in advance, he had a way to deal with it. He had enough confidence to fight in this state.
Yang Qi walked through the crowd and quickly came to the front of the ring. He looked at the man opposite the ring. This man was Wei Yi who challenged him.
Since accepting the challenge, Yang Qi has been practicing in seclusion almost all the time. However, during these two days, Yang Qi has also learned a lot about Wei Yi. After all, knowing yourself and the enemy is the key to success. After learning more about him, Yang Qi also knew that Wei Yi was definitely a demon cultivator at the same level as Hu Yan. If both of them were in the middle stage of the five-star martial emperor, it would not be difficult for him to defeat Wei Yi. However, Wei Yi was only suppressing his cultivation, so it was not so easy for him to defeat him.
Wei Yi looked at Yang Qi and said calmly, "I thought you weren't coming!"
"Since I accepted your challenge, there's no reason for me not to come." Yang Qi said with a calm smile.
After so many years of wandering in the endless universe and experiencing many dangers, Yang Qi, whose horizons have been broadened, has become extremely calm. Although he attaches great importance to this battle, he is not obsessed with it.
Wei Yi looked at Yang Qi not far away and chuckled, "Yang Qi, you and I are both the top practitioners of our generation in the Zhenwu Sect. If we only fight each other this time, it would be too monotonous."
“Here it comes!”
After hearing what Wei Yi said, Yang Qi already knew that Wei Yi was indeed planning to win the token in his hand directly through a duel. Of course, this must be agreed by Yang Qi, otherwise Wei Yi's plan would fail.
"What do you think?" Yang Qi looked at Wei Yi and asked.
Upon hearing this, Wei Yi raised his eyebrows and said casually, "How about adding some gambles? I'll bet a top-grade Taoist weapon for a treasure on you other than your own Taoist weapon?"
"What a calculation!"
Hearing Wei Yi's words, Yang Qi smiled coldly in his heart. Even though Yang Qi was a demon cultivator at the middle level of the Martial Emperor Realm, the most precious thing on him was probably the Dao Weapon for his own use, and the possibility of the treasures other than the Dao Weapon for his own use reaching the level of the top-grade Dao Weapon was extremely small. After all, the treasures that he could not use were generally used to exchange for cultivation resources. Not to mention the Martial Emperor Realm, even the cultivators at the Martial Emperor Realm did not have so many resources that they could not be used up!
Wei Yi deliberately did not state that he wanted to win the token, just to lure Yang Qi into a trap and ask for the token directly from him after winning. Of course, this approach would only be effective if Yang Qi did not get the token or did not know the value of the token.
Unfortunately, what Wei Yi didn't know was that Yang Qi had already received the token from Emperor Haoyue, and knew the great value of the token. He also clearly knew the purpose of Wei Yi's challenge!
Top-grade Taoist soldiers!
What a big deal!
As Wei Yi finished speaking, the practitioners watching the battle were also shocked. A high-level Martial Emperor who didn't have a foundation couldn't afford to use top-grade Dao weapons. Even those Martial Emperors who had no foundation and had just entered the Martial Emperor realm were only using top-grade Dao weapons. Of course, they were using top-grade Dao weapons of the finest level, but even so, the value of the top-grade Dao weapons themselves could not be erased!
And now, the prize of the competition that Wei Yi mentioned turned out to be top-grade Taoist soldiers. How could they not be surprised
Even though the Cao family offered high-quality Taoist weapons in order to seize a share of the ruins, those were the relics of a peak Martial Emperor. To the forces of cultivation, they were even more precious than simple top-quality Taoist weapons, which was why the Cao family offered such conditions!
But now, it was just a separate competition between two mid-level Martial Emperors, and the stakes were actually top-grade Taoist soldiers. How could they not be shocked
"There are definitely two factions wrestling behind them!"
"That's right, otherwise how could two mid-level Martial Emperors have the confidence to put out top-grade Taoist soldiers as a bet."
The practitioners watching the match were talking about it, but most of them speculated that the factions behind the two men had taken action and increased the stakes in order to make the match more intense and arouse the two men's desire to fight.
"Top-grade Taoist weapons are precious."
Yang Qi smiled calmly, then looked at Wei Yi and said, "But if you want the thing in my hand, a top-grade Taoist weapon is not enough!"
As he spoke, Yang Qi's hand moved, and the token of Zhenwu Realm appeared in his hand. Wei Yi wanted to use this challenge to directly win the token of Zhenwu Realm, which was the simplest and most effective way. Yang Qi also wanted to take advantage of the situation and use the token of Zhenwu Realm to teach Emperor Jialuo a lesson. The stakes of the top-grade Taoist soldiers were still too small!
Um
Looking at the token in Yang Qi's hand, Wei Yi's pupils shrank and a hint of excitement flashed in the depths of his eyes.
He was not afraid of how high the bet Yang Qi offered, but he was afraid that Yang Qi would not use the token of the Zhenwu Realm as a bet at all. In this case, even if he won the competition, he would need Emperor Jialuo to mediate. Although there was a chance of success, he was not completely sure.
"Are high-grade Taoist soldiers not enough?"
"Are you kidding me?"
"Even if they are high-level Martial Emperors, not everyone has a top-grade Taoist weapon!"
As soon as Yang Qi finished speaking, he immediately attracted discussions from countless practitioners. Top-grade Taoist weapons were treasures that many practitioners present could not afford even if they spent all their money. Now Yang Qi actually said that top-grade Taoist weapons were not enough and could not compare to the treasures in his hands
"Could it be that thing?"
Among the crowd, there were some practitioners with thoughtful looks on their faces. These practitioners were either from the Zhenwu Sect or powerful people from some big forces. They had heard about the things in the Zhenwu Realm, and when Yang Qi took out the token, they immediately had some guesses.
"A token from the True Martial Realm?"
Baili Xiang's eyes fixed, his heart filled with envy. Although he didn't know much about the Zhenwu Realm, he knew that it was the foundation of the Zhenwu Sect's survival. Yang Qicai was able to get such an opportunity by joining the Zhenwu Sect, so he was naturally extremely envious.
The practitioners who guessed the origin of the token in Yang Qi's hand were envious and jealous, but no one wanted to snatch it. Because the Zhenwu Realm was controlled by the Zhenwu Sect, and the token was given by the Zhenwu Sect's high-level officials, even if they snatched the token, it would be useless and they would be hunted down by the Zhenwu Sect. If they wanted to snatch the token by force, they would be courting death! (To be continued)
