Chapter 912

Chen Yang nodded slightly at Xuanyuan Xing before shifting his gaze to look at Yi Liya.

Yi Liya also looked at him at this moment, his expression calm and composed.

"Yi Liya, you are the most difficult among the four in this competition.

Your opponent is Xuanzhi City's Feng Wuchen. He is the adopted son of Qin Yuan and is the number one in Xuanzhi City. He was also the top four in the last competition. You … "Chen Yang hesitated for a moment before saying.

"Don't worry, City Lord. Although Feng Wuchen is strong, I have already thought of a countermeasure. I might have a chance of winning." Yi Liya interrupted Chen Yang with a proud smile before he could finish.

"It's good that you have a countermeasure." Chen Yang was slightly displeased that his words were interrupted, but he did not show it on his face.

"Daoist Yi, Feng Wuchen's cultivation is unfathomable. Even I might not be able to deal with him. Don't be careless." Gu Qianxun reminded.

"Thank you for your reminder, Daoist Gu." Yi Liya frowned slightly before relaxing his brows and saying plainly.

Gu Qianxun did not say anything else.

Han Li did not even look at Yi Liya. It was as if he did not hear the conversation between Yi Liya and Chen Yang. He only stood there with his head lowered. No one knew what he was thinking.

Chen Yang warned the four of them again before he turned around and walked towards the high platform.

Once Chen Yang left, Yi Liya walked in front of Han Li and said slowly, "Daoist Li, you must not lose this round. That way, we will have a chance to compete on the same stage in the next round."

"Likewise. I also hope that Daoist Yi can take down Feng Wuchen." Han Li raised his head and said plainly.

According to the competition schedule, if he successfully advanced to the next round, he would indeed meet one of Yi Liya or Feng Wuchen in the next round.

Yi Liya scoffed coldly when he heard this and slowly walked to the side. Tu Gang and the rest immediately followed and surrounded him.

Han Li sat cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes to rest.

Chenyang ascended the high platform. City Lord Ekwe and the other three City Lords were already there, but for some reason, Madam Six Flowers wasn't here today.

"Cough, cough … I say, City Lord Chen, I'm really sorry. Your Qingyang City only has four people left, and after this round, you'll lose at least two more people.

On account of the friendship between our two cities, I should have let you guys have a round. However, Feng Wuchen and Hao Feng are both unwilling. As the City Lord, I can't force them. Please forgive me. "Qin Yuan coughed and chuckled when he saw Chen Yang coming up.

"City Lord Qin's words are too serious. As the saying goes, victory and defeat are determined by fate, and it's hard to predict anything in the world. Who can be certain about the matters in the Profound Battle Stage?" Chen Yang lightly smiled as he spoke.

"Cough, cough … this Qin admires City Governor Chen's character of not changing even if a mountain collapses in front of you. In that case, let us wait and see." Qin Yuan laughed faintly as he spoke.

Fu Jian and Sun Tu didn't seem to be interested in their conversation. They just sat there quietly, but their eyes were looking in two different directions.

"Time's up. Let's begin." City Lord Echu raised his head to look at the sky and spoke.

The dark-skinned man stood at the side and nodded. He leaped off the high platform and came to the center of the Shuraba.

"Everyone, the first round of the Profound Battle Stage seven days ago was extremely exciting. I'm sure everyone still wants more, right?

Today, the second round of the martial competition that everyone has been waiting for is about to begin!

The rules for this round are the same as before. There will be a total of 16 Profound Battles, divided into two rounds. "The dark-skinned man announced loudly.

Following the voice of the dark-skinned man, the greyish-white stone wall on the left side of the high platform slowly rose again.

Half of the names on it had been reduced, leaving only 32 people. They were divided into two rows, and the names of every Profound Gladiator in the two rounds of the competition were clearly engraved, as well as the Profound Battle Stage.

Among the four people from Qingyang City, Han Li and Yi Liya's matches were quite close to the front, and they were both in the first round.

Han Li was on the "Li" Stage, while Yi Liya was on the "Dui" Stage. Gu Qianxun and Xuanyuan Xing were in the second round.

Yi Liya did not say a word and walked towards the "Dui" Stage. Tu Gang and most of the others followed.

Han Li also tidied up his clothes and let out a light breath.

"Take care." Gu Qianxun glanced at Han Li and said.

"Fellow Daoist Han Li, I hope you have good luck in martial arts and get another victory." Xuanyuan Xing also smiled at Han Li in a friendly manner.

Han Li smiled at the two of them and walked to the "Li" Stage and leaped onto it.

There was a skinny old man wearing the uniform of a judge standing on the stage.

Han Li nodded slightly at the skinny old man and stood at the side of the Profound Battle Stage. He glanced around casually.

It was different from the desolation of the first round. There were many people gathered here, but most of them were from Xuanzhi City. From their conversations, it was obvious that they were all here for Hao Feng.

At this moment, a grey shadow flashed in front of him and a man in a grey robe appeared out of thin air with astonishing speed.

This person was tall and skinny like a bamboo pole. He wore a grey robe and held a strange snake-shaped sword in his hand. The blade of the sword flashed with a layer of sticky green light. It was obviously very strange.

Han Li's eyes narrowed as the information about Hao Feng that Chen Yang had given him flashed through his mind.

This person was the same as Feng Wuchen. The mysterious orifices that he cultivated were focused on the orifices in his legs. He was especially good at attacking with extreme speed and attacking unexpectedly. The Jade Serpent Sword in his hand even contained the poison of some high-level scaled snake that could directly corrode one's mysterious orifices. It was extremely difficult to deal with.

Hao Feng was also sizing up Han Li as his eyes flickered slightly.

"Li Feiyu, I watched your battle with Xu Shun from start to finish. You might be able to fool others with your act, but you can't fool me," Hao Feng said slowly, his voice extremely hoarse.

"Thank you for your concern," Han Li said without changing his expression.

"Your strength is not bad, and you hid it well. It's a pity that you met me. If you're smart, you'll immediately give up and admit defeat. This will be the wisest decision you'll make in your life," Hao Feng continued.

"I'm very sorry. Due to some reasons, I cannot give up. I'll have to disappoint you," Han Li said with a faint smile.

"I gave you a way out, but you didn't take it. So be it." Hao Feng's face darkened and his eyes were as cold as ice.

"Time's up. Begin!"

With the skinny old man's order, the battle immediately began.

Hao Feng's body shook slightly. With a buzz, hundreds of mysterious orifices lit up all over his body. They all emitted white light and engulfed his entire body. From afar, he looked like a person made of white light.

Especially on his legs, there were no less than forty to fifty mysterious orifices lit up.

Rays of dazzling white light emitted from these mysterious orifices and condensed in one place, forming two white snake-like shadows. It was as if he was stepping on two white snakes.

Seeing this, Han Li's eyes flashed with a trace of surprise. White light flashed on the surface of his body, and all 72 mysterious orifices lit up.

Without waiting for him to make a further move, Hao Feng sneered. The two white snakes on his feet twisted and his entire body disappeared, leaving only a few white afterimages.

In the next moment, a green sword shadow appeared out of nowhere in front of Han Li and directly pierced through his right chest. Han Li seemed to be completely unable to react and stood there blankly.

Seeing this scene, the people near the Mysterious Battle Arena let out a cry of surprise.

Could it be that the winner was decided just like that?

In the end, Han Li, who was pierced by the Jade Serpent Sword, did not shed a single drop of blood. Instead, after a tremble, it quickly drifted away. It turned out to be an afterimage.

Hao Feng's complexion suddenly changed when he saw this scene.

At this moment, a gust of wind attacked from behind, and Han Li's figure appeared out of nowhere behind him. The mysterious orifices of the White Feather Soaring Art on his legs were also blooming with dazzling white light, enveloping his legs and making them blurry and difficult to see. Moreover, his five fingers formed into claws and clawed down.

His fingertips carried five solid gusts of wind, like five steel awls, and pierced the skin of Hao Feng's neck.

Hao Feng was startled. He didn't have time to turn around and waved his hand like lightning. The Jade Serpent Sword in his hand trembled and suddenly turned into thousands of fine dark green sword shadows. Like a dark green wave, it swept towards Han Li.

Every sword shadow was as fast as lightning and emitted a hissing sound, like the hissing of a poisonous snake. It was frightening to hear.

Han Li immediately changed his claw into a fist, and a layer of golden light appeared on his entire arm. Then, his fist blasted out like lightning and collided with the dark green sword shadows.

"Bang!" A loud sound echoed!

A dazzling golden light erupted from Han Li's right arm and shattered the dark green sword shadows.

Hao Feng's body shook, and he was forced to take a step back. His pupils shrank.

A faint layer of golden hair appeared on Han Li's fist, and the incomparably sharp Jade Serpent Sword only left a few white marks on it.

Hao Feng snorted coldly. He took a wrong step, and his figure suddenly separated, transforming into a white afterimage. In a flash, he appeared behind Han Li, and the Jade Serpent Sword in his hand pierced forward like lightning.

"Bang!" A loud sound echoed!

At some unknown time, Han Li had turned around and punched the Jade Serpent Sword, forcing Hao Feng back.

Hao Feng became slightly anxious after his two consecutive attacks had missed. White light flashed under his feet, and his agility skill was unleashed to the extreme. Layers of afterimages were formed, and they were connected to each other. They were like a huge white snake, and they rapidly revolved around Han Li.

Gusts of strong wind swept out from the white snake shadow, and formed a tornado that was more than a dozen feet in size. This tornado enveloped Han Li.

Han Li's eyes flashed as he saw this scene.

"Brother Hao Feng has used the Snake Shadow Escape Skill. Li Feiyu won't be able to block his attack now!" the people of Xuanzhi City said excitedly under the Mysterious Fighting Stage.

"Chi! Chi!" A sharp whistling sound resounded, and a dark green sword shadow shot out from the tornado. It pierced towards every part of Han Li's body.

Han Li's eyebrows twitched as he saw this. He raised his arm, and punched out with a seemingly slow but fast punch.

Suddenly, a huge force surged out from his fist and exploded in all directions.
