Chapter 113: Xun Er: This glorious radiance should have been mine!

The announcement of the opponents for the first match immediately caused a huge uproar at the scene.

"This is too coincidental, they are the two in the first match!"

"I have a premonition that this match might be even more spectacular than the final!"

"They are both among the top geniuses of the Ancient Clan!"

"Who do you think will win? Although Gu Fei has higher talent, I still think Gu Yao has a better chance of winning, because this is a stage for strength, not talent."

"I don't think so; Gu Fei's talent isn't just in cultivation!"

The onlookers engaged in a heated discussion about the two, and the atmosphere at the scene was ignited directly without needing any warm-up.

If this was the Ancient Clan's way of warming up the crowd, it must be said that it was very successful.

Gu Yao and Gu Fei were both strong contenders for the position of Commander.

The battle between the two could be said to be full of highlights, making everyone feel incredibly expectant.

【Xiao Yixian experiences nervousness and worry, Emotion Value +100】

Gu Fei looked at Xiao Yixian; because of her nervousness, her already fair cheeks had even less color.

"Don't worry, I'll be back in a moment."

After comforting Xiao Yixian, Gu Fei soared into the air and appeared in the center of the plaza; this was the arena for the competition.

After Gu Yao learned that his opponent was Gu Fei, he kept his eyes fixed on him without blinking.

"This time, I must win!"

After saying this in his heart, Gu Yao also soared into the air and landed in the center of the stage following Gu Fei.

"Brother Gu Fei, since today is a competition for the position of Commander, let's not hold anything back..."

Gu Yao spoke very earnestly; he knew that Gu Fei's talent was better than his own, and this time might be his only chance to defeat Gu Fei. In a few more years, he would surely be left far behind by Gu Fei in terms of strength.

Moreover... Xun'er's sweet smile appeared in Gu Yao's heart, although she rarely smiled because of him.

Xun'er, for you, I must win! "Fine, there are no brothers on the martial arts field, give it your all!"

Gu Fei smiled and nodded, then stopped suppressing his Dou Qi, letting it gush out!

【Gu Yao experiences shock, Emotion Value +15】

"Two-Star Dou Zun... you've broken through again?"

As Gu Fei revealed his aura, Gu Yao looked at him in utter shock.

He remembered that Gu Fei had just broken through to Dou Zun not long ago; only half a year had passed, and he had broken through again?

Gu Fei's talent wasn't just that of a genius, he was simply a monster! The people who were shocked were not just Gu Yao; Gu Qingyang and Xun'er were equally shocked.

"It seems Gu Yao has no chance this time!"

Outside the arena, Gu Qingyang shook his head.

A one-star gap between a One-Star Dou Zun and a Two-Star Dou Zun was like a chasm that was difficult to cross.

"Is his talent really that strong?"

Xun'er was also dazed.

In her heart, she actually never really wanted to divorce Gu Fei; after all, Gu Fei was the most outstanding person among the younger generation.

Who would dislike their husband being a peerless genius?

At this moment, a feeling of unwillingness spread in Xun'er's heart; she bit her pale lips, hoping that Gu Yao could defeat Gu Fei by overcoming the rank gap! After Gu Fei and Gu Yao confronted each other for a moment, the competition officially began.

Gu Yao's Dou Qi gushed out, his black and white hair dancing behind him. The next second, his figure disappeared like a ghost, and his figure could not be captured in the air.

Seeing this, Gu Fei's expression finally became a bit solemn. He could not lose this battle; what youth is not arrogant? Such a tournament was the beginning of his rise to fame.

If he lost, he would inevitably face mockery and sarcasm, so he only had one path: to win!

"Bang!"

Gu Fei suddenly clenched his right fist; the mere action of clenching his fist caused the air to emit a sonic boom. Dou Qi surged like a tide, sweeping in all directions. He raised his right arm and slammed it fiercely into the space in front of him! Just as Gu Fei was about to strike the space in front of him, a hand suddenly reached out from the space and attacked the back of Gu Fei's hand at extreme speed! "Boom!" The collision of Dou Qi produced a violent explosion, and the aura swept outward like sea waves. At the same time, a person appeared in front of Gu Fei—it was Gu Yao, who had just disappeared.

At this moment, Gu Yao grabbed Gu Fei's fist with one hand, Dou Qi wrapping around both fists to lock Gu Fei in place, while his other fist struck toward Gu Fei's heart.

But how could Gu Fei be hit so easily? His arm gave a strange twitch, and a burst of Dou Qi dispersed Gu Yao's restraint, and he took the opportunity to dodge Gu Yao's punch.

The exchange happened in the blink of an eye; in the eyes of the people, the clash was completed in an instant, and the two seemed evenly matched.

Only Gu Yao, who had experienced it personally, knew that Gu Fei had not used his full strength at all.

Since you pride yourself on being strong, then I will knock you to the ground! "Mountain Opening Seal! Sea Turning Seal!"

Gu Yao's expression sank, his hand seals changed, and several huge palm prints appeared and blasted toward Gu Fei.

He did not attack one by one, but directly bet most of the Dou Qi in his body to block all of Gu Fei's escape routes, forcing Gu Fei to face his God Seal Art head-on.

Seeing this, Gu Fei had no expression on his face; he knew Gu Yao's intention.

Since you want to go head-to-head with me, then I will grant your wish! "Mountain Opening Seal! Sea Turning Seal!"

Gu Fei formed seals with his hands at a faster speed, and similarly, several huge palm prints appeared, and both sides began to bombard each other, covering the sky.

The palm prints of both sides collided, triggering a chain explosion, and turbulent air waves swept in all directions.

If the plaza had not been large enough and had a Seal set up by experts in the inner circle, the spectators watching from afar would likely have been affected.

All the palm prints dissipated after the collision; Gu Fei stood where he was, unmoved, while Gu Yao's face was much paler.

Clearly, Gu Yao, who was one star behind, was no match for Gu Fei at all.

And Gu Fei was not prepared to waste any more time with Gu Yao, starting to exert his full strength.

When Gu Fei exerted his full strength, Gu Yao was completely outmatched, retreating steadily, having only the capacity to take a beating; even his defense was full of holes under the fierce offensive.

"Just relying on fighting spirit is still not enough to win..."

This thought appeared in Gu Yao's heart, and immediately after, Gu Fei suddenly flashed behind him and slapped his back with a palm.

The Exotic Fire burrowed into Gu Yao's body, and the scorching sensation made Gu Yao feel as if he were facing death.

Looking at the serious-faced Gu Fei, Gu Yao knew that he had not the slightest hope of winning.

"I'm not fighting anymore, I'm not fighting anymore, I concede!"

Gu Yao announced his surrender, dejected.

With Gu Yao's surrender, the Chief Commander of the Hundred Battles on the high platform, Gu Zhan, immediately declared Gu Fei the winner.

"I accept your concession!"

After Gu Fei finished speaking, he stepped off the stage, feeling very relaxed; Gu Yao had not posed any threat to him at all.

Afterwards, the other contestants took the stage one after another.

The competition continued, and as expected, the final was between Gu Qingyang and Gu Fei.

Although Gu Qingyang was one star stronger than Gu Yao, he was likewise powerless before Gu Fei.

After some social maneuvering, Gu Fei achieved the final victory.

With this, Gu Fei became the Seventh Commander of the Black Annihilation Army, and Gu Qingyang became the Eighth Commander.

This time, Gu Fei completely solidified his title as the number one person of the younger generation, because the previous six commanders were all nearly thirty years old or older, with some even approaching forty.

The previous two commanders had not actually stepped down voluntarily, but were eliminated by the assessment because their strength had not made much progress for many years.

Having achieved such glory, Gu Fei stood with Xiao Yixian, chatting and laughing.

Because of Gu Fei, Xiao Yixian also enjoyed that immense glory.

Seeing this scene, Xun Er, who was standing in the crowd, felt an inexplicable discomfort in her heart: "Originally, all of this should have been mine."
