Chapter 813: Beautiful and Outstanding Woman
"To think that the Darming Dynasty's Zhao Wei Yi was afraid of Duan Ling Tian because Duan Ling Tian obtained the number 1 token and didn't even have the courage to enter the arena... His intestines are probably green with regret right now, right?"
"If Duan Ling Tian challenges me, I'll surely accept the challenge! Not only do I want to accept the challenge, I also want to defeat him and seize the number 1 token in his possession."
"It would be great if I'm able to obtain the number 1 token... I can challenge anyone I want later on and intentionally select 'ripe persimmons' to squash, and entering the top 10 of the martial competition wouldn't be the slightest bit difficult."
...
At this moment, many young geniuses anticipated Duan Ling Tian and Feng Tian Wu challenging them.
As far as they were concerned the number 1 token in Duan Ling Tian's possession and the number 7 token in Feng Tian Wu's possession weren't obtained by relying on true strength, and they were instead obtained through irregular means.
Of course, there were also some people that knew Duan Ling Tian and Zi Shang, and they knew that Duan Ling Tian and Zi Shang had absolutely not relied on irregular means to obtain the number tokens in their possession.
After Zi Shan, the possessor of the number 2 token, left the arena, the possessor of the number 3 token, Qi Feng, entered the arena.
Since he possessed the authority of the number 3 token, Qi Feng would naturally use it, and he directly chose the possessor of the number 49 token.
His opponent admitted defeat.
After that, the possessor of the number 4 token, Qin Kong, entered the arena, and his opponent admitted defeat as well.
The possessor of the number 5 token, Ta Mu, and the possessor of the number 6 token, Lu Yong, ascended the arena successively, and their opponents didn't have the courage to fight them as well.
Subsequently, it was the turn of the possessor of the number 7 token, Feng Tian Wu.
Feng Tian Wu flew out and chose the possessor of the number 45 token, a tall and robust young man that was almost middle aged and had disheveled hair that hung loosely on his shoulders.
The young man was an entire two meters tall, and he was like a titan when standing before Feng Tian Wu.
"Little girl, your appearance isn't bad... But unfortunately, you obtained the number 7 token in your possession by irregular means, so you're bound to not be a match for me! Hand over the number 7 token and admit defeat." The young man that was like a titan spoke in a deep voice. "Otherwise, don't force me to ruthlessly destroy a flower!"
"Haha... Big guy, you have to be gentle. She's only a 25 year old little girl." Someone couldn't help but laugh.
For a time, many people laughed along with them.
All of these people felt that Feng Tian Wu didn't possess much strength.
"If you want the number 7 token, come take it yourself." Feng Tian Wu's expression remained unchanged when facing the young man's arrogance, and she stood there in midair as her red robes fluttered without the wind, causing her to seem to have transformed into a ball of blazing flames.
"Young girl, you really aren't sensible! Since it's like this, then let me properly teach you a lesson about how to act." The corners of the young man's mouth was suffused with an evil smile. In the next moment, the tall and robust figure flashed out, and seemed to be heavy yet it didn't affect his speed in the slightest.
At the same time that he flashed towards Feng Tian Wu, an enormous spiked club appeared in the young man's hands, and it flickered with Origin Energy before transforming into a ball of material flames.
Almost 60 ancient horned dragon silhouettes dashed out along with him.
Even though he looked down on Feng Tian Wu, he didn't dare be the slightest bit careless in the battles of this Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties, and he utilized his full strength as soon as he struck out.
"World Suppressing Strength!" The young man roared abruptly as the spiked club that burned with scorching flames carried the strength of almost 60 ancient horned dragons as it descended down towards Feng Tian Wu's head.
At the same time that many young geniuses present cursed at the young man for not knowing how to show mercy to women when they saw this scene, they couldn't help but close their eyes as they weren't willing to see the scene of a peerless beauty being killed.
But they quickly opened their eyes and a heartfelt expression of shock appeared on their faces.
"AH!!" The reason they opened their eyes was entirely because of the young man's shrill and miserable cry.
When they opened their eyes, they saw an unforgettable scene, the red clothed young woman that stood there like a fairy of fire didn't move in the slightest, whereas the young man that smashed out with his grade four spiked club with the intention of crushing the red clothed young woman had instead been blasted flying like an arrow that left the bow, and he emitted shrill cries and spat blood as he flew.
At this moment, not only was the spike club in the young man's hand blasted flying, even his disheveled hair was burnt into ash, and he'd become bald.
"What happened earlier?!" The young geniuses that closed their eyes because they couldn't bear to see Feng Tian Wu perishing had recovered from their shock successively, and all of them asked out at the same time.
Never had they imagined that this young woman that was merely 25 would actually defeat the young man that was like a titan.
"How formidable!"
"She heavily injured and blasted the possessor of the number 45 token flying with a single palm strike and without even using a spirit weapon."
"Her strength is at least at the second level of the Void Interpretation Stage... Besides that, the flames she controlled were much more material than those controlled by the possessor of the number 45 token. It's at least a second level Intermediate Fire Concept!"
"Is she really 25 years old?"
...
Feng Tian Wu's strength drew a wave of clamor in the scene.
A young woman that was merely 25 revealing such a cultivation and Concept had caused them to feel ashamed, and they wished for nothing more than to dig a hole and hide within it.
"Unfortunately, she only attacked for a short moment, and the phenomenon of the heavens and earth hadn't even condensed into form before dispersing."
"Even though the phenomenon of the heavens and the earth didn't condense, but I can be sure that she is a martial artist at the second level of the Void Interpretation Stage or above. Moreover, she had comprehended an Intermediate Fire Concept at the second level or above!"
"A woman possesses such natural talent and ability, and it's sufficient to cause countless men to feel ashamed."
...
The sky above the entire combat arena was in a complete uproar because of Feng Tian Wu's brief attack.
"What a formidable little girl!" Even the Vice Fort Master of Skywolf Fort, Ning Can, couldn't help but take a few more glances at Feng Tian Wu, and in the end, his eyes were covered in killing intent.
If a genius martial artist that possessed such heaven defying natural talent and comprehension ability couldn't join their Skywolf Fort, then he would rather kill the martial artist than allow the martial artist to survive.
Once such a monstrous existence was to stand on the opposing side of the Skywolf Fort, the person would surely become a great calamity to the Skywolf Fort, and this was something he wasn't willing to see.
"Shang, if this woman passes through the third round of the selections and advanced to the fourth round of the selections... You must kill her!" Ning Can looked at Zi Shang as he spoke via voice transmission.
"Yes, Master." Zi Shang's gaze that was filled with coldness descended onto Feng Tian Wu when he heard this, and killing intent flashed into existence within his eyes.
"Ning Can wants Zi Shang to kill Tian Wu?" Duan Ling Tian's observational ability was shocking and he easily noticed the killing intent that flickered in the depths of Ning Can's gaze when he looked at Feng Tian Wu. Moreover, he noticed Ning Can glancing at Zi Shang and the reaction Zi Shang made to this.
So he guessed Ning Can's thoughts.
"Let me see if you, Zi Shang, kill Tian Wu, or Tian Wu kills you, Zi Shang!" The corners of Duan Ling Tian's mouth curled into a cold smile, and he had a method to deal with this in his heart.
In the battle between Feng Tian Wu and the young man that was like a titan, the young man was heavily injured with a single strike and was unable to continue fighting, so Feng Tian Wu was victorious.
Whoosh!
After a short moment, Feng Tian Wu returned to Duan Ling Tian's side.
"Tian Wu, when did you comprehend fourth level Intermediate Fire Concept?" Duan Ling Tian couldn't help but ask via voice transmission.
Perhaps when other people witnessed Feng Tian Wu attacking, the phenomenon of the heavens and the earth hadn't condensed, so they were unable to specifically confirm Feng Tian Wu's cultivation and Concept.
But Duan Ling Tian who possessed the experience and memories of the Rebirth Martial Emperor's two lifetimes was capable of discerning with a glance that the Fire Concept Feng Tian Wu exerted earlier was obviously already a fourth level Intermediate Fire Concept.
This caused Duan Ling Tian's heart to be filled with shock.
"It was also at the Illusory Crypt... I entered a short period of sudden insight during the barrier of fire, and I'd already comprehended fourth level Intermediate Fire Concept when I woke up." Feng Tian Wu wasn't surprised that the level of her Fire Concept was see through by Duan Ling Tian.
There were too many miracles and unbelievable things on Duan Ling Tian, and she'd long since become numb to it.
In her eyes, this Big Brother Duan of hers could do what others couldn't.
"As expected of the Fire Spirit Body, it's actually so abnormal!" At the same time that Duan Ling Tian was slightly speechless when he heard this, his heart was filled with shock.
He knew that the reason Feng Tian Wu was capable of obtaining various fortuitous encounters in the Illusory Crypt was entirely because of the Fire Spirit Body, and if it was another person, it would be utterly impossible for the person to obtain such benefits.
Meanwhile, the remaining three people that possessed one of the top 10 number tokens issued a challenge.
The opponents they challenged didn't even enter the arena before admitting defeat.
Subsequently, it was the possessor of the number 11 token that issued a challenge. This person was ranked before Su Li, and he was a young man that was dressed like a scholar.
The possessor of the number 41 token that was challenged by him was injured heavily as soon as he entered the arena and couldn't continue fighting.
Subsequently, it was Su Li, the possessor of the number 12 token that entered the arena, and his opponents was injured by a single sword strike of his. If it wasn't for him changing the blade of his sword to the body of his sword in time, his opponent would be dead for sure.
"Thank you for showing mercy!" Su Li's opponent was fully convinced of his loss and retreated openly.
The third round of the selections continued.
No long after, it was Zhang Shou Yong and Long Yun's turns, and both of them obtained victory successively.
In next to no time, a round finished, and 25 young geniuses were eliminated from the 50. They were either killed, injured, crippled, or admitted defeat.
After the round, none of the possessors of the top 10 tokens were replaced, and it was sufficient to indicate that their strengths generally matched the number token in their possession.
The remaining 25 young geniuses continued to undergo the second round of challenging.
As the possessor of the number 1 token, Duan Ling Tian was once again the first to enter the arena.
After he entered the arena, Duan Ling Tian challenged the possessor of the number 25 token, a young man that possessed a savage appearance. The eyes of the young man constantly flickered with a fierce light, and it seemed as if everyone was his enemy.
At the central area of the sky above the combat arena, Duan Ling Tian and this young man with a savage appearance stood in confrontation, and the atmosphere in the surroundings went silent.
The silent atmosphere didn't last for long and was quickly replaced by clamorous noises.
"That Feng Tian Wu of the Darkhan Dynasty has proven her strength to a certain extent. Yet I wonder if Duan Ling Tian, who hasn't fought since the beginning until the end, is capable of proving his strength?"
"If he's defeated by the possessor of the number 25 token, he'd become the greatest joke of the Martial Competition of the Ten Dynasties this time!"
"He's about to make a move... I truly can't wait."
...
All the people present anticipated Duan Ling Tian's battle.
