Chapter 357

"Six Foundation Establishment stages, two Jin Dan stages, this lineup..." The Foundation Establishment stage cultivators who were lucky enough to enter the top eight revealed a difficult expression.

According to the practice of previous years, the top eight would duel on the ring, and the top three would be decided according to the order of elimination.

For this reason, they formulated a plan with the help of sect elders, calculating how to eliminate opponents and stay as much as possible.

The plan included but was not limited to: pretending to cooperate, sneak attacks from behind, spies within spies, turning against each other on the spot...

Now in this scene, no plan worked. The only way to win was for the six Foundation Establishment stages to join forces to deal with Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou.

Just when a group of seeded cultivators were thinking about how to deal with it, a steady voice came: "If you listen to my command, you will have a possibility of winning."

The seeded cultivators looked and saw that the speaker was the only mid Foundation Establishment stage present.

"So it's the heir of the Yan family."

The Yan family was a big family in Qingzhou, with a heritage of 6,000 years, incense burning continuously, and there were three Integration stage ancestors in the clan. Even the Governor had to be polite to the Yan family.

"If the Yan heir commands, it's not impossible."

Someone took the lead, and the seeded cultivators nodded one after another. The Yan heir had the highest cultivation present and was backed by the Yan family, having the highest prestige among the crowd. With him in command, everyone was convinced.

"Zhou Fangge, how about you?" The Yan heir set his eyes on the black-robed youth.

"It's not impossible." Zhou Fangge smiled, "But I only have one requirement. You five deal with that Meng Jingzhou, and leave Lu Yang to me alone."

The crowd was furious, feeling that Zhou Fangge was simply ignorant of the height of the sky: "Are you kidding? You performed mediocrely before, and you actually want to deal with Lu Yang alone?!"

Now only if the six people were united could they possibly defeat Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou. Now that one person was shouting to send himself to death, how could they not be angry.

Suddenly, Zhou Fangge released his true cultivation, making everyone's expression change. This was a cultivation even more powerful than the Yan heir.

"Late Foundation Establishment stage!?"

I didn't expect this person to be at the late Foundation Establishment stage, hiding so deeply.

If there were no Lu Yang and Meng Jingzhou, this person would be the biggest threat.

Think about it, in the ring, eight people melee, Zhou Fangge used his true cultivation at the last moment, who could stop it?

Zhou Fangge had already expected the crowd's reaction and said slowly: "Now, am I qualified to deal with Lu Yang alone?"

"Actually, I can already form the core, and it is a nailed-down top-three Jin Dan. It's just that in order to form a First-Grade Jin Dan, I stopped my steps."

The Yan heir frowned and advised: "Forgive me for being blunt, even if you are at the late Foundation Establishment stage, the winning rate against Lu Yang is still not very high."

Zhou Fangge revealed a playful smile: "Facts speak louder than words. Since the Yan heir doesn't believe it, let's wait and see."

"Okay, the final is about to start, get on the stage."

Zhou Fangge laughed loudly and walked onto the ring.

Seeing Zhou Fangge so confident, the Yan heir felt relieved. The other party dared to say so, and must have something to rely on. No matter what it was, as long as he could defeat Lu Yang.

"Everyone knows that the most famous thing in my Yan family is 'One Hundred Solutions to Weapons,' with unparalleled attack. I have been taught by my great-grandfather since I was young and know 'One Hundred Solutions to Weapons' best, so I will be the main attacker."

"Gu Qisheng, your Profound Yin Body's attack comes with three parts of cold air. Even if I face you, I might not be able to get any benefits. You and I will attack Meng Jingzhou at the same time."

"Shi Xuan, you are familiar with arrays, use arrays to interfere with Meng Jingzhou."

"Yang Xianyi, you have obtained the true teachings of talismans, use talismans to provide us with support according to the situation."

"Sima He, your Jishi Manor is famous for the Sweet Dew spell. In the previous few battles, the opponent's attack speed was not as fast as your recovery. You stand in the last row and recover injuries for me and Gu Qisheng!"

The Yan heir made arrangements one by one, and soon a temporary team with clear division of labor was formed.

"Senior Brother Meng, please give me your advice!" The Yan heir clasped his fists hard, his expression firm.

"Senior Brother Meng, please give me your advice!" The four people behind shouted in unison.

Meng Jingzhou was startled. Before the competition, he and Lu Yang discussed that each would fight three, so why were there five people on his side?

The Yan heir didn't give Meng Jingzhou extra time to think. He held an axe in his left hand and a battle-axe in his right, waving the weapons in his hands quickly, like a swimming dragon piercing the clouds, an eagle striking the sky, the moves fierce and swift, making people can't help but be refreshed.

Gu Qisheng tightened the muscles of his whole body, the spear tip shook slightly, and he pierced toward Meng Jingzhou with a whoosh. True Qi surged, a wild wind rose, and the scene was exceptionally spectacular.

The other three didn't idle either. A dazzling array rose under Meng Jingzhou's feet, and Meng Jingzhou's feet seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, unable to move.

Paper swallows folded from talismans flew out from Yang Xianyi's sleeve, blocking all possibilities of Meng Jingzhou dodging.

Sima He recited the mantra silently, which entered the ears of the Yan heir and Gu Qisheng. Their spiritual platforms were clean, their spiritual sense temporarily surged, they threw away all external interference, devoted themselves to the battle, and the power of the weapons in their hands filled another point!

The seamless cooperation of the five people caused the crowd under the stage to exclaim. Even the Jin Dan stage changed color when they saw it, feeling that this situation was quite tricky, and they couldn't retreat unscathed.

Being injured by the Foundation Establishment stage at the Jin Dan stage was a very shameful thing.

Lu Yang withdrew his gaze, looked at Zhou Fangge, and was somewhat puzzled: "Only you alone? You seem to be only at the late Foundation Establishment stage?"

Zhou Fangge was startled in his heart. Since his debut, it was the first time he encountered someone who could see through his realm, but he was still not afraid, smiling coldly: "I alone am enough."

He had defeated an early Jin Dan stage, and it was by winning with solid foundation and skills without using his trump card. Facing an elite cultivator like Lu Yang, he naturally couldn't win so easily.

So he decided to use his trump card.

He understood the thoughts of cultivators with high cultivation. The higher the cultivation, the higher the vision. They only fought with cultivators of the same realm and generally looked down on cultivators with lower realms. When the opponent was lower than his own realm, he would involuntarily slack off. This was his opportunity!

He wanted to let Lu Yang know that realm doesn't represent everything! Combat power is the foundation!

Seeing Zhou Fangge so confident, he must have some extraordinary means. Lu Yang didn't take it lightly, took out the Green Front Sword from his identity jade plate, prepared to deal with it with all his strength, and then used the Invincible Pill to find a countermeasure.

The Invincible Pill extracted a trace of Lu Yang's spiritual power, rotated rapidly, and soon gave an analysis.

"The other party is at the late Foundation Establishment stage cultivation, and there is a gray point in the black eyes, which is the characteristic of the Vast Dao Body. The Vast Dao Body is vast and immeasurable, boundless, and the spiritual power reserve in the body is ten times that of the same level. He is good at protracted combat. The more it drags on to the later stage, the more unfavorable the battle is. It is difficult to find an opponent at the same level, and even challenging those of higher levels is the norm."

Lu Yang continued to ask: "Then how to fight?"

"Fight as you please."

The second update is around 11 o'clock.
