Chapter 251

"So that's a win?"

Yu Changsheng suddenly realized, and after recalling his tamed beasts into his Inner Landscape, he frowned and looked at Wang Junjie opposite him.

This match was much easier than he had imagined; he hadn't even gone all out, and Wang Junjie had lost as a matter of course.

Anyone with eyes could see that this Wang Junjie was deliberately throwing the match.

Opposite him, Wang Junjie smiled faintly, his eyes holding deep meaning; he offered no further explanation and jumped off the Arena cleanly and neatly.

"Was it Yang Chengxu's instruction, wanting to come deal with me personally? Or does he want me to go deal with Yang Chengxu, to suppress his Aura a bit?"

Yu Changsheng frowned, took a deep breath, and amidst his swirling thoughts, he soon had a speculation.

"Forget it; either way I have to face Yang Chengxu, so we'll just see how tomorrow goes."

Yu Changsheng looked up at Mo Pengchen on the High Platform, but saw Mo Pengchen smiling faintly at him, his gaze appreciative, faintly revealing a trace of helpless bitterness; meanwhile Mu Yongxian at his side bore a calm expression, without a trace of surprise.

"Winning so easily, this Wang Junjie threw the match, right?"

"Deliberate? What is Linglong Sect plotting? Or is it that Yang Chengxu did it on purpose?"

"He wants to personally face Yu Changsheng? Wants to thoroughly trample our Wanxiang Sect's face?"

Below the stage, a group of Wanxiang Sect disciples discussed heatedly, speculating one after another; the people on Linglong Sect's side were equally confused, but none of them showed it.

For them, the outcome of this match wasn't that important; after all, the main event wasn't this, and the final result would be Yang Chengxu winning thoroughly regardless.

Similarly, although tomorrow's Finals hadn't started yet, most Wanxiang Sect people already held no hope; Yu Changsheng had certainly amazed them, but it was merely so.

If he truly faced Yang Chengxu, they all believed Yang Chengxu would ultimately win; after all, even Zhang Tianwen had lost.

For a moment, the atmosphere on Wanxiang Sect's side was a bit stifled; gazes flowed over Yu Changsheng one after another, then they shook their heads and sighed lightly.

Even Mo Pengchen felt some melancholy and depression in his heart; in reality, the majority of people believed that when the result of Zhang Tianwen and Yang Chengxu's match came out, this Grand Competition had basically produced its result.

Everyone else was just running accompaniment.

But the procedures that must be gone through still had to be gone through; no matter what others thought, the last Finals arrived as promised.

Early on, the venue was packed to capacity; Linglong Sect's side was in high spirits, and Yang Chengxu's figure was clustered among them like stars surrounding the moon.

"Go for it; our Wanxiang Sect's face rests on you."

After a night of adjustment, Zhang Tianwen's complexion was much more ruddy, his eyes holding encouragement, and he said softly to Yu Changsheng.

"Right, don't have pressure either; Changsheng, just do your best. Regardless of the result, let's go drink at my Wan Beast Tower together when it's over!"

Li Minghan pondered for a moment, then laughed heartily.

Sun Shihan smiled at Yu Changsheng, gently and softly said "be careful," then actively stepped back.

As for the other Wanxiang Sect people, most also cast well-meaning gazes toward Yu Changsheng; although in their hearts they were not optimistic about Yu Changsheng, at this moment naturally no one would say any discouraging words.

"I'll do my best, but fortunately yesterday Senior Brother Zhang made a move, crippling one of Yang Chengxu's arms; otherwise this match really wouldn't be fightable." Yu Changsheng smiled bitterly, his expression quite helpless, but in his heart there were no other feelings.

To him, Yang Chengxu was indeed dazzling and strong, but that was just it.

"Finals Opening: Wanxiang Sect Yu Changsheng versus Linglong Sect Yang Chengxu, begin now!"

On the High Platform, Mo Pengchen and Mu Yongxian spoke simultaneously, their voices covering the Si Fang; as the Formation on the Arena rose, Yu Changsheng and Yang Chengxu leaped up at the same time, transforming into two Long Rainbows that resoundingly landed on the Arena, forming a confrontation left and right.

"Zhang Tianwen is a good opponent; he knew he wasn't my match, and knew my Tian Xiao Shadow Dragon state was unstable, so from the start he kept this hand, the purpose being to create an opportunity for you."

Yang Chengxu smiled faintly, his tone indifferent, his gaze calm; as he spoke, the Tian Qing Sub-Dragon took the field, coiling in the Void, a faint pressure enveloping the area.

"But the opportunity was created for you; whether you can seize it depends on yourself. He treats you well; coincidentally, I'm also very interested in you."

"Ang!!!"

The Tian Qing Sub-Dragon roared, its dragon body coiling and entwining; the proud intent on Yang Chengxu and the Dragon Might emanating from it blended and reinforced each other.

Yu Changsheng didn't speak, only shook his head lightly; with a wave of his hand, Cai Xing, Chi Lian, and the Golden-Winged Great Eagle appeared simultaneously.

For this battle, although the Tian Xiao Shadow Dragon would not take the field, Yu Changsheng still had no confidence in his heart.

But fortunately, with Li Minghan and Zhang Tianwen's groundwork, he already had a general understanding of Yang Chengxu's techniques, and wouldn't be too passive.

"Three small fry, potential's not bad, but compared to the Tian Qing Sub-Dragon, it's far from enough."

Seeing Yu Changsheng's tamed beasts take the field, the contempt on Yang Chengxu's face deepened, but his movements had not a trace of underestimating the enemy.

Merely the start, and he nodded at the Tian Qing Sub-Dragon; in a split second, intense Green Light covered the Arena, flashing across Heaven and Earth; a blazing sun shadow and a bright moon shadow rose up within it.

"Tian Qing Sun Moon Light!"

No matter what Yang Chengxu specifically thought in his heart, when facing Yu Changsheng he had not a bit of underestimation.

"Domain..."

Yu Changsheng took a deep breath, somewhat headache-stricken, looking at the enveloping Green Light; a burning sensation transmitted from his skin.

He wasn't like Zhang Tianwen, who also had a Domain to confront with; in fact, tamed beasts that can manifest this kind of Domain divine ability are few and far between.

None possess it unless they are Spirit Beasts with extremely high Bloodline Potential and cultivated very well; his three tamed beasts, though excellent, still fall short compared to true king-tier tamed beasts of the same rank like the Tian Qing Sub-Dragon and Divine Might Spirit Tiger.

Domains are myriad and varied, effects also not entirely the same, but they share some commonalities: enhancing oneself while consuming the opponent; beyond that, there are some characteristics, varying according to different Domains.

For instance, the current Tian Qing Domain's characteristic is very obvious: this Green Light possesses a burning effect, continuously weakening the opponent and accelerating their mana consumption; simultaneously, within the Green Light, it can effectively interfere with the opponent's Vision, causing temporary Blindness.

"But fortunately my Divine Sense is powerful; this Tian Qing Domain's suppression of my Divine Sense Vision has almost no influence." As Yu Changsheng's thoughts turned, the Golden-Winged Great Peng flew high, the Chi Lian swam, the Cai Xing stood ready in formation; the Tian Qing Sub-Dragon's figure flickered in and out within this Tian Qing Sun Moon Light.

"Wuwuwu!!!"

The Cai Xing cried lightly, its nimble Deer Hoof stepping on the ground; instantly, layer upon layer of ripples rippled open, and one Towering Tree after another rose from the ground, weaving into a forest in mid-air, becoming a heaven-and-earth net, temporarily covering this Tian Qing Sun Moon Light.

"Jijiji!"

The Chi Lian spat out its Snake Tongue; on its Snake Body, flames erupted, spreading continuously along the Towering Trees.

And the Golden-Winged Great Eagle circled high, fierce whirlwinds sweeping in; instantly, this raging fire gained assistance, the blaze becoming even more vast; wave after wave, firelight soared to the heavens, even faintly overwhelming this Tian Qing Sun Moon Light.

"Five Elements Beast Law, Fire Word Decision! Wood Word Decision!"

Yu Changsheng formed hand seals, the Five Elements Beast Law operating; two streams of light shot from his fingers, respectively striking the Chi Lian and Cai Xing; in a split second, their might increased further, flames surging high, trees forming a forest! "Interesting means."

Yang Chengxu remained unmoved, looking at the raging Fire Sea before him and the heat waves brushing his face, his eyes flashing.

"Tian Qing Annihilation Claw!"

The Tian Qing Sub-Dragon roared, streams of mist dispersing from all sides, further obscuring vision while its body's swimming speed seemed to have received a boost; with a swipe of its dragon claws, six green edges tore through the Void, striking toward the three spirit beasts.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle……"

These six green edges contained infinite sharpness; Yu Zhangsheng's eyes narrowed slightly — only when truly facing Yang Chengxu could one experience his troublesome nature.

The fire sea formed a barrier, trees becoming fuel, black wind howling violently, continuously blowing down from the sky dome; instantly the flames grew even more vigorous.

Following the weaving of trees and Yu Zhangsheng's control, a flame giant palm covering half the sky dome gradually took shape; fire light reached the heavens, terrifying high temperature stirred wind and clouds; this giant palm swept horizontally, pressing down fiercely upon the incoming six green edges! Boom boom boom!!

The flames dissipated, the green edges likewise vanishing without trace. The Tian Qing Sub-Dragon's figure suddenly swam forth, its indifferent dragon eyes revealing pressure; green light covered its dragon tail, piercing through clouds and breaking mist, it lashed out violently at the three tamed beasts! This lash stirred even the flames, spreading along the dragon tail, yet was entirely blocked by the green dragon scales on its body surface; bursts of sonic boom sounds transmitted, the Void exploded, momentum massive and force heavy.

"Spirit Beast Four Extremes Array!"

Yu Zhangsheng lowered his brow, pressing both hands toward the ground; earth and stone flew up, three towering storms spiraling upward from the three tamed beasts' bodies respectively.

The Golden-Winged Great Eagle flapped its great wings, narrowly avoiding this strike amid the surging fire sea.

The Cai Xing Deer's body was nimble, its deer antlers emitting seven-colored light; endless vines permeated the Void, yet were all effortlessly shattered by the Tian Qing Sub-Dragon.

At the critical moment, a flash of pitch-black color flickered on the Chi Lian Snake's tail; it suddenly flicked, its tail lashing out, blocking before the Cai Xing Deer, meeting the Tian Qing Sub-Dragon's Shenlong Swinging Tail! "Poison Tail Divine Hook!"

The Chi Lian Snake's tail curved, its fiery red snake scales also turning black, flashing with metal luster; the Tian Qing Sub-Dragon's dragon tail lashed upon it.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle……"

Fire light flashed, the Chi Lian Snake screamed; massive force transmitted through the snake tail directly acting on its body; its body suddenly plunged prone, the earth trembled, violent qi waves swept the four directions; after they scattered, a through-and-through large pit appeared on the spot, the Chi Lian Snake lying within, its tail slightly sunken, spitting blood from its snake tongue, its pair of blood-red snake eyes even more cold.

The Tian Qing Sub-Dragon paid no heed; on its tail's scales, faint white traces streaked across; besides that, not a hair was damaged.

"Forest Sea of Fire!"

Yu Zhangsheng gave a low call, stepping forward heavily with one foot; that sky-reaching flame seemed to have found its source, tilting down from mid-air, connecting around Yu Zhangsheng's body, withdrawing its violent power, burning blazingly, surrounding left and right, making him meet it.

"Thousand Mountain Armor!"

Earth-yellow light flashed; on the great earth, pieces of earth and stone seemed drawn, flying toward Yu Zhangsheng; mid-flight they flashed with earth-yellow light, finally covering Yu Zhangsheng's body surface, transforming into a layer of heavy armor body, forming a boost, stirring the great earth.

"Chirp chirp!!!"

The Golden-Winged Great Eagle circled low, crying softly once, flapping its twin wings; a gale erupted, continuously blowing down flames.

The fire sea tilted, the sky canopy collapsed; the Tian Qing Sun Moon Light was also suppressed at this moment; sky-full of flames, blending, slowly surrounded beside Yu Zhangsheng; amid continuous weaving, they finally condensed into another armor shadow, assembling outside the Thousand Mountain Armor.

"Crack crack crack……"

Yu Zhangsheng's body was heavy, incomparably massive; one step forward, and instantly the flames on him circulated, the Thousand Mountain Armor flashed; his whole body's vast qi and blood like a bright lamp in the darkness, stirring wind and clouds not to be ignored; massive force transmitted through his soles into the arena; instantly the arena shook, cracks appearing on it.

Yu Zhangsheng's dual eyes blood-red, his whole body's cultivation base and qi and blood burning unrestrained; terrifying pressure covered the surroundings; flames like lotuses, mixed with Void Fire's aura, blooming cluster by cluster.

"Roar roar roar!!!"

Streaks of Chi Lian Snake, Golden-Winged Great Peng, Cai Xing Deer beast shadows emerged behind him one after another, low roaring, each sound like heavenly thunder shaking the hearts of all watching people.

"Five Elements Beast Law, Fire Word Decision!"

At this moment Yu Zhangsheng's expression was indifferent; amid sky-reaching fire light, like a monarch; around him a vast fire sea spread outward, tumbling and rolling in all directions, extending a full ten-odd li, covering every corner of the arena, spiraling upward along the arena's protective barrier; as far as the eye could see, flames rose upward, momentum terrifying.

And the person standing in the very center of the fire sea was Yu Zhangsheng; his whole body's momentum at this moment reached the highest peak; he raised his head, glancing at the Tian Qing Sub-Dragon circling in mid-air; a thought moved, right hand raised, grasping at the Void; instantly streaks of black thunder roared forth, tearing space, surrounding beside him.

"Thousand Thoughts Slash! Shocking Spirit Pierce!"

This black thunder was strange, without substance, without violent energy, entirely the concretization of the most pure and thick soul power; following Yu Zhangsheng's low roar, this black thunder tore through the Void, a thousand paths a hundred paths, taking the lead striking toward the Tian Qing Sub-Dragon!

"Treading Soul!"

In the fire sea behind Yu Zhangsheng, the Cai Xing Deer's figure emerged; a streak of fluctuation likewise emitted, aimed at the Tian Qing Sub-Dragon; although its power compared to Yu Zhangsheng's Thousand Thoughts Slash was far too lacking, after the three beasts' boost, its power was also not to be underestimated.

The Spirit Beast Four Extremes Array continuously exerted its effect; three storms continuously poured energy onto Yu Zhangsheng; through the contract with the three spirit beasts, at this moment Yu Zhangsheng's state reached an unprecedented peak.

In every raise of hand and move of foot, vast power was drawn.

"Ang!!!"

In mid-air, black thunder struck the Tian Qing Sub-Dragon's brow center squarely; instantly a scream resounded through the clouds; the Tian Qing Sun Moon Light covering the sky canopy also showed signs of dissipating.
