Chapter 94

Yang Dingtian's body shot forward like a cannonball, suddenly arriving in front of Gan Lang.

Gan Lang's claws also lunged forward, still bloody and ferocious, but at this moment, they no longer posed a threat to Yang Dingtian.

Gan Lang's moves, he had seen through them!

With his right hand, he firmly locked onto Gan Lang's right claw, and his left hand, the Flame Feather, slashed down like a bolt of lightning!

The third move of the Pig Slaughtering Sword Technique, Sever the Head.

"Whoosh..." Blood spurted wildly as Gan Lang's massive arm was severed and flew dozens of meters away.

At this point, Gan Lang, who had already transformed into a beast demon, felt no pain at all. His empty arm still swung toward Yang Dingtian, and his bloody claws on both sides still lunged for Yang Dingtian's eyes.

The Ninth Void Sword, the Eighth Tribulation, Nirvana!

Yang Dingtian's right-hand sword, like a myriad of stars or a torrential rain of flowers, swept toward Gan Lang's bloody claws.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

The sword flowers splashed, and blood spurted wildly.

Gan Lang's bloody claws, along with his left arm, shattered inch by inch, exploded inch by inch, and vanished inch by inch. In less than half a second, they were completely shattered, turning into a pile of bloody mud on the ground.

Then, Yang Dingtian's right-hand sword drilled into Gan Lang's chest, instantly piercing his heart.

His left-hand Flame Feather flashed with a red light.

The third move of the Pig Slaughtering Sword Technique, Sever the Head.

Instantly, Gan Lang's massive head flew straight into the sky, and blood spurted from his neck for dozens of meters.

The Ninth Void Sword, Nirvana!

The right-hand sword that had pierced Gan Lang's chest trembled violently inside him, splashing a dazzling sword flower.

"Bang..."

A loud explosion, the sword flower bloomed to its fullest!

Gan Lang's massive body exploded, completely shattered into pieces!

Just as Yang Dingtian had said, this corpse-dissecting madman had killed countless people in his life! Today, he would taste the outcome of being torn to pieces!

...

As countless blood flowers fell, Yang Dingtian's figure retreated like lightning, avoiding the rain of blood, and slowly sheathed his sword.

The entire square, with thousands of disciples, first fell into silence, then erupted in excitement.

Countless people shouted Yang Dingtian's name, and countless fiery gazes fell on him.

In the battle just now, Yang Dingtian had won the admiration of countless Cloud Peak City disciples, even though these disciples' cultivation levels were likely higher than his.

But Yang Dingtian's stunning performance was enough to conquer anyone!

And the elders on the high platform, such as Elder Yang Yan, all had extremely serious and ugly expressions.

Qin Shaobai had completely lost his previous arrogant demeanor, sitting in his seat with a cold face, staring intently at Yang Dingtian.

Yang Dingtian turned to face Elder Yang Yan on the high platform.

The second round of the chariot battle had ended. Now, only the last round remained. As long as he won the third round, Yang Dingtian would win the final victory of the day and could participate in the City Lord's Grand Duel next year.

Now, the biggest suspense was who would be the third person to challenge Yang Dingtian?

Qin Shaobai had already placed the powerful Gan Lang on the list of ten to kill Yang Dingtian, which was a precaution. No one had expected Yang Dingtian to break through to the Xuanwu stage within five days, but Qin Shaobai still arranged for Gan Lang just in case.

But Qin Shaobai had not anticipated that Gan Lang would lose to Yang Dingtian, not even considering the slightest possibility.

Now that Gan Lang was dead, had the plan of Yang Yan, Tang Bozhao, and others to kill Yang Dingtian through the duel completely failed?

Would they arrange a second pawn to kill Yang Dingtian?

...

Tang Bozhao's shocked expression had not yet faded as he slowly stepped forward and said coldly, "Yang Dingtian has won the second round of the duel. Who is willing to be the third challenger? Come to the platform and duel with Yang Dingtian. If you defeat him, you can stay in Cloud Peak City."

After saying this, Tang Bozhao's gaze fell on the remaining eight people. Originally, there were ten losers in the major elimination battle, but now two had been killed by Yang Dingtian.

After hearing Tang Bozhao's words, none of the eight spoke or stood up!

"Is there anyone willing to be the third challenger and duel with Yang Dingtian?" Tang Bozhao asked again.

Still, no one responded.

It seemed that these eight people were terrified.

If no one came forward, Yang Dingtian would automatically win the chariot battle.

Although Tang Bozhao was very unwilling to see this, he had to say coldly, "I will count down from five. If no one comes forward, Yang Dingtian will win the final victory!"

"Five!"

"Four!"

The square was silent, and everyone stared at the remaining eight people, waiting to see if anyone would come forward.

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

"I will come forward, I will challenge Yang Dingtian!" Suddenly, a tall figure slowly stepped out from among the eight.

Everyone was shocked! Who was this person?!

Gan Lang was so powerful, yet he died under Yang Dingtian's sword. Who was this person, daring to come forward?

The person was shrouded in a black robe, holding a sword, and walked onto the duel platform.

Although his face was not visible, Yang Dingtian felt a familiar aura from him.

Everyone stared with wide eyes, waiting for the challenger to reveal his true identity.

"Yang Dingtian, I remember I told you before that I would never let you off." The person slowly lifted his robe, revealing a handsome and cold face.

Tang Li, Tang Bozhao's son, Tang Li!

The moment Tang Li revealed his true face, everyone was shocked!

"Shameless..."

At this moment, not only Yan Yan and Lady Ximen, but also thousands of Cloud Peak City disciples felt angry.

A person cannot be so shameless!

The other side had really arranged a second pawn to kill Yang Dingtian!

Tang Li, a young genius of Cloud Peak City, a Four-star Xuanwu Warrior. Among the 20-year-old disciples of Cloud Peak City, he ranked at the top. How could he have lost in the major elimination battle?

A Four-star Xuanwu Warrior was five levels higher than Yang Dingtian! Five levels might not seem like much, but the most critical part was the cross-rank battle!

Xuanwu was one rank, and Xuanwu Warrior was another rank.

As long as it was a cross-rank battle, victory was impossible. Even if Tang Li was just a One-star Xuanwu Warrior, his Xuan energy would be several times that of Yang Dingtian, let alone being a Four-star Xuanwu Warrior.

"If I hadn't come back, you would have been eliminated from Cloud Peak City. To kill me, your father paid too high a price, didn't he?" Yang Dingtian said.

"I was going to leave Cloud Peak City anyway, because I will soon be the son-in-law of Northwest Qin City," Tang Li said coldly.

Then, Tang Li suddenly drew a long saber and said fiercely, "Enough talk, draw your sword!"

...

"Shameless!"

Ximen Lie shouted loudly, drawing his giant sword and facing Elder Yang Yan, saying coldly, "Elder, to kill Yang Dingtian, you don't even care about your reputation? Are you going to perform such a despicable act in front of thousands of Cloud Peak City disciples?"

Yang Yan's facial muscles twitched, and he said coldly, "I know nothing about this. However, there is no rule that prevents Tang Li from challenging Yang Dingtian."

Ximen Lie was furious and turned to the thousands of disciples in the square, saying, "Brothers of Cloud Peak City, are you going to stand by and watch such despicable acts? Are you going to let the honor of Cloud Peak City be trampled? Do you agree with this shameless duel?"

Tang Li's appearance had already angered many Cloud Peak City disciples. Now, with Ximen Lie's provocation, most of them suddenly stood up and shouted, "No, no!"

"Shameless, shameless..."

As more people joined in, the protests grew louder.

Tang Bozhao's face changed, and he said, "What? Are you going to rebel? Sit down immediately!"

But no one sat down. Thousands of disciples stood straight, protesting to the Elders' Council, demanding justice for Yang Dingtian!

Tang Bozhao looked at Yang Yan, knowing that the anger of the masses was hard to defy.

Taking a deep breath, Tang Bozhao said loudly, "Tang Li, why do you want to duel with Yang Dingtian at all costs? Give everyone a reason!"

Tang Li's face turned cold, and he said, "I am not dueling with him, I am challenging him. Because Yang Dingtian killed my friend Yang Qi, I am avenging Yang Qi!"

At these words, everyone's faces changed, and Yang Dingtian's heart also trembled!

Yang Qi, as a member of the Yang family, was quite well-known. He had been missing for several days, and now Tang Li was saying that Yang Dingtian had killed him.

If that were true, then Tang Li indeed had a reason to challenge Yang Dingtian.

Instantly, the morale of all Cloud Peak City disciples weakened.

"Ha ha ha..." Ximen Lie suddenly laughed loudly, "Tang Li, you say Yang Dingtian killed Yang Qi, what evidence do you have?"

Tang Li said coldly, "Six days ago, Yang Qi learned that Yang Dingtian was going to the Red Wilderness to hunt demon beasts and said he would go to cause trouble. Later, Yang Dingtian returned, but Yang Qi did not, and he was neither seen alive nor dead. If not killed by Yang Dingtian, who else could it be?"

"Ridiculous..." Ximen Lie laughed loudly, "Yang Dingtian was just an Initiate at the time, and Yang Qi was much stronger. Who would believe that Yang Dingtian killed Yang Qi?"

Tang Li smiled coldly and said, "Then, who would have believed that Yang Dingtian would kill Gan Lang before today?"

Instantly, both sides engaged in a fierce verbal battle, the tension rising!

In the end, Ximen Lie drew his sword, Lady Ximen drew her sword, and Ximen Yan drew her sword.

On the opposite side, Tang Bozhao drew his sword, Tang Xin drew his sword, Ximen Yan drew his sword, and dozens of people from the Elders' Council drew their swords.

They were about to engage in a fierce battle on the high platform, in front of thousands of Cloud Peak City disciples!

Both sides were on the verge of conflict!

"Who dares to make a move..." Suddenly, Yang Yan shouted loudly.

Instantly, the sound was like thunder, deafening, silencing all the noise!

Then, Elder Yang Yan slowly walked onto the high platform and looked at Yang Dingtian coldly, saying, "Yang Qi is my grandson. Tang Li says you killed him. Tell me, did you kill him or not?"

Yang Dingtian shook his head.

"Then, swear by the spirit of the City Lord of Ximen that you did not kill Yang Qi. If you lie, the spirit of the City Lord will not rest in peace," Yang Yan said coldly.

Yang Dingtian remained silent.

Yang Yan said coldly, "You have two choices now. The first is to prove your innocence. The second is to duel with Tang Li!"

Yang Dingtian took a deep breath and said, "I did not kill Yang Qi, but I will not swear by the supreme honor of Uncle Ximen. So, I choose to duel with Tang Li. I have one more request. If I win, please return Yan Yan's Phoenix Flame Sword, Elder."

Elder Yang Yan's face turned cold, his muscles twitching slightly, and he said slowly, "Agreed!"

Instantly, Yang Dingtian faced Tang Li and slowly drew the Night Owl Blade, ready for the final battle of the day.

The Night Owl Blade was a divine weapon! Now, its true battle had arrived!
