You will fight first, but be careful. Don't underestimate your opponent because one mistake can change the result of the fight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood, village head.\" After saying that, Siyi stepped forward. \"I will be the first fighter, and I choose Ming as my opponent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, you chose me as your opponent? I hope you won't let me down later.\" Ming was not afraid of Siyi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like Siyi, he also had confidence in himself. He believed he could defeat Siyi later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siyi and Ming were currently standing in the center of the fight zone.

Win and lose are normal in a fight. I would not feel embarrassed if I lost to someone, but….\" Ming stopped his words halfway before rushing toward Siyi and attacking him. \"I don't think I will lose to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone's eyes were on them when Ming made his move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Thrust…Slash…Thrust…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ming attacked Siyi continuously and from all directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He did not give Siyi a chance to counterattack because he wanted to defeat Siyi as quickly as possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would lift the spirits of the Sanlow village people if he could defeat Siyi quickly. That was why he tried his best to defeat Siyi in the shortest time possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Siyi was a powerful martial artist and had a lot of fighting experience, so defeating him was not easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only did he fail to defeat Siyi in a short amount of time, but he always failed to land an attack on Siyi's body until now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did he hate it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course not!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, Ming grinned happily because he felt like his blood was boiling when he fought against a strong martial artist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha.

They are so fast!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These were the words that appeared in their minds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All martial artists at the master stage could not follow their attacks. Only one person could follow their movements and attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That person was none other than Xiao Tian!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, Xiao Tian was the only one who could follow their movements and attacks with his eyes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'They are strong.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He admitted they were strong, but he believed he could defeat them if they fought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though Siyi and Ming were strong, but they were not as powerful as Dan, the first elder of Sanlow village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiao Tian defeated Dan when they fought at Kingstrie Lake a few days ago, so he believed he could defeat Siyi and Ming if they fought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After fighting fiercely for several minutes, Siyi was the first to land a hit successfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nice!\" Huang Hu shouted happily. \"Don't waste the opportunity, instructor Siyi. Keep attacking him! Beat him up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ming rose to his feet and took one step back. \"Haha. This is exciting. I would love to keep fighting you, but I have to end it now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Inhale…exhale…inhale…exhale…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ming started absorbing the energy of heaven and earth into his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Battle instinct!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, he wanted to fight in battle instinct mode!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Battle instinct? Coincidently, I also think the same.\" After saying that, Siyi did the same thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though they were not candidates to be the Ruler, they could use battle instinct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>*Shui…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They instantly rushed toward each other.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because they were in battle instinct mode, every second was important.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Battle instinct is indeed amazing.\" Huang Hu clenched his fists.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tried to feel the energy of heaven and earth countless times, but he always failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was why he was a little jealous when he saw Siyi and Ming fighting in battle instinct mode.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It just so happened that the two of them could use seven percent of the energy of heaven and earth, so they were still fighting equally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it did not last long because Siyi could stay in battle instinct mode for nine seconds while Ming was only eight seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though the difference was only one second, but Siyi could do many attacks in one second because he was in battle instinct mode.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Siyi landed seven attacks on Ming's body in a second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uakkk…\" Ming was thrown three meters from where he was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could not stand up after falling to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We lost!
