Chapter 3701: The Competition Continues as Usual

"Is Li Yuan already exposed, or is someone really taking the chance to frame Ye Liuyun?" the God King also found himself troubled in his heart.

But he did not return today; instead he hurried to the arena. When the spectators saw the God King arrive, they instantly erupted in excited cheers.

Ye Liuyun was also seeing Wang Tianqi in person for the first time—a sturdy middle‑aged man with sharp facial angles, a solemn expression, giving off an aura of authority without anger.

The fourth‑level Cave Heaven Realm surprised Ye Liuyun. He hadn't expected his own realm to be relatively low. Yet the God King's aura of Golden Light was extremely dense, and he even worried that his Black and White Light could not pierce that Golden Light.

"It seems killing him is impossible. If I turn hostile on the spot, I can only flee; I cannot clash with him directly," Ye Liuyun decided in his mind at once.

God King Wang Tianqi also waved to the audience, then sat down and scanned toward the contestants.

Ye Liuyun was also watching him. The two locked eyes, both wearing solemn expressions.

Ye Liuyun had expected the God King to strike, but after a brief eye contact, the God King looked away and nonchalantly let the host continue the match.

He even uttered a few ceremonial words, wishing everyone good results.

"Is he waiting for me to fight a few rounds, wear me down before acting, or does he have some hidden move?" Ye Liuyun wondered in his mind.

Not only Ye Liuyun, the great powers also eagerly awaited to see how the God King would deal with Ye Liuyun.

Soon the competition resumed. Today there were only fifteen bouts in total, and Ye Liuyun turned out to be the last to appear.

His opponent was the Poison Hand, who could forge poisonous Kuailei.

"Is this deliberately arranged by the God King?"

Ye Liuyun thought this was a very troublesome opponent. Fighting him would likely cost him a lot of effort and also expose many of his Trump Cards.

"Hmph, kid, you're doomed!"

After learning that his opponent was Ye Liuyun, Poison Hand threatened Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun was too lazy to bother with him; being hard to deal with does not mean he cannot be killed.

"Observe and wait!"

He stopped making wild guesses, sitting calmly aside, watching the battles unfold, and using Divine Sense to probe the surroundings.

However, everything seemed the same as before, with no abnormalities, and no additional guards outside the arena.

The God King, on the viewing platform, was also watching the match attentively, as if he were taking it very seriously.

The remaining contestants each possessed formidable strength, but after several days of continuous battles, everyone's combat power had been greatly diminished.

Cases like Ye Liuyun, who had no loss of companions, were unique to him alone.

When Li Yuan took the stage, Ye Liuyun discovered that Li Yuan had replenished his strength, now accompanied by ten Kuailei and ten Martial Cultivators. In this battle he fought very actively, fully unleashing his Spatial Power and Soul devouring.

Although his opponent was also strong, he ultimately eliminated him, winning the bout at the cost of sacrificing half of the Kuailei and Martial Cultivators.

This result, across the various matches, was considered a good record. By now, Martial Cultivators who still had helpers were left with only single‑digit auxiliary forces, except for the Poison Hand that Ye Liuyun would face today.

Ye Liuyun keenly noticed that Li Yuan could not continuously devour others' Souls with his Black Pupils; a buffering interval was required.

"I don't know whether this flaw is a deliberate act or if the function truly needs a cooldown. But since the God King can still let him advance, perhaps he won't act against me immediately."

Ye Liuyun was still pondering whether to reveal a bit of his power, to surprise everyone and make the God King hesitate to act rashly.

Finally, the last bout arrived, with Ye Liuyun facing Poison Hand.

Everyone's gaze once again gathered.

Focusing on Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun had already adjusted his condition; regardless of what follows, he would take this bout seriously. Winning would have an unknown outcome, but losing would guarantee that the Clone Puppet could not escape today.

As soon as he entered, he released several of his companions, acting very cautiously.

Opposite him, Poison Hand recklessly unleashed all his Kuailei, zombies and other aids, numbering nearly fifty.

"Hei Hu, Yao Ji, avoid the poison; everyone, seal your Sea of Consciousness to prevent the opponent's Soul attack from releasing poison!"

Ye Liuyun could already use poison, so he didn't mind such poisonous things. He only reminded the Kuailei and those who hadn't practiced the Ten Thousand Poison Heart Sutra, lest they fall victim.

In this way, they were at least essentially immune to the opponent's poison, reducing damage greatly.

"Kid, hand over your Kuailei directly to me, and I might consider giving you a respectable death," Poison Hand threatened Ye Liuyun again.

He was surrounded by over fifty Cave Heaven Realm Kuailei; this strength could already dominate the entire arena. Without Ye Liuyun, perhaps no one could handle so many Kuailei.

The reason he threatened Ye Liuyun was that he knew these Kuailei were forged by Sun Que for Ye Liuyun, so he wanted to capture a few living Kuailei to study and steal some techniques.

Of course, Ye Liuyun also had to kill them, because he had benefited from more than one faction.

"Hehe, I'm not scared; if you have the skill to beat me, then speak up!" Ye Liuyun simply ignored his threat.

When the Steward announced the start of the match, those around Ye Liuyun sprang into action. Ye Liuyun also drew the Item and began firing.

From his prior observations, he already knew the Physical Body strength of Poison Hand's Kuailei, so each arrow employed the power of a ruby embedded in his arm to boost its force.

Thus, the Kuailei that others considered indestructible were shattered by a single arrow.

The God King, however, keenly noticed that each time Ye Liuyun released an arrow, a flash of red light flickered on his arm. He naturally recognized that the ruby could enhance attack power.

"This kid hasn't shied away from gathering resources in the monster world; he even equips his Kuailei with so much!"

"How dare you destroy my Kuailei! You'll meet a bad end! All together, annihilate them!"

Poison Hand, upon seeing Ye Liuyun easily destroy two of his Kuailei, felt deep regret. Although he had prepared mentally before, a craftsman still feels attached to his own creations. He immediately ordered all the Kuailei to swarm in attack, trying to minimize losses.

The fifty Kuailei instantly exuded poisonous gas and rushed together to attack Ye Liuyun.

Zhan Kong suddenly vanished this time, taking the initiative to strike at the unguarded Poison Hand. However, Poison Hand was already prepared and immediately donned a set of armor to shield himself.
