Chapter 286 Judge Ao Jia
Chapter 286 Judge Ao Jia
Yu Daoling narrowed his eyes slightly. It was the first time he dealt with You Hengzu. Not knowing the details, he naturally didn't want to take the risk.
So Yu Daoling said calmly: "Maybe next time."
Then, in order to avoid embarrassment, Yu Daoling signaled a demon cultivator from the demon clan to stand up.
Seeing this, the demon cultivator stepped forward and shouted: "I am Hu Xiaotian from the Tiger Clan, and I am at the early stage of the Golden Core Cultivation Stage. Who wants to fight me?"
Obviously, Yu Daoling wanted to use the competition to change the subject.
In the crowd, Mu Changsheng's eyes condensed slightly. This Hu Xiaotian Jindan could transform in the early stage, which meant that the other party's bloodline was extraordinary. He was most likely the descendant of a powerful demon. His strength was naturally much higher than that of the demon cultivators of the same level.
The human race was equally unwilling to be outdone. A swordsman in green clothes stepped out of the crowd and introduced himself: "I am your opponent, from the Xianxia Sect, Liu Chengfeng."
The Xianxia Sect is located in the Xifeng Region, one of the four major regions in the northern part of the Tianshuang Realm. It is the leading force in the Xifeng Region, so Liu Chengfeng can be considered to be from a famous family.
Hu Xiaotian snorted coldly and said, "What a bullshit Xianxia Sect, I will teach you a lesson later."
"Wait until I kill you and use your tiger bones to make a scabbard." Liu Chengfeng responded sharply.
The two sides were on the verge of a fight, but before the competition could begin, they had to wait for the referee to appear.
An old man in yellow clothes descended from the sky and said solemnly: "I am Ao Jia, invited by fellow Taoists from the human race to serve as the referee of this competition. Do fellow Taoists from the demon race have any objections?"
The old man's surname is Ao, and his identity is obvious. He is obviously from the dragon clan of Tianshui Realm.
Letting the dragon cultivators be the referee was indeed a bit disgusting to the demon clan. When the demon clan saw Ao Jia, they were all furious and cursed the dragon clan for being traitors.
Mu Changsheng found this scene extremely interesting. He knew that the dragon clan had rebelled against the demon clan and joined the human race, but he never expected that the dragon clan would be willing to take on the job of refereeing. In this kind of competition, it made no difference whether there was a referee or not.
"The demon clan is not united as one." Mu Changsheng thought to himself. This was rare good news.
On the field, Ao Jia remained calm despite the insults from the demon cultivators. The only thing that really concerned him was Yu Daoling's attitude.
Seeing that Yu Daoling did not object, Ao Jia continued to act as the referee and explained the rules of the competition: "Today's competition is a life-and-death competition. Unless someone voluntarily admits defeat, the competition will only be decided when one party dies. If both parties perish, the winner will be determined by the order of death. The one who dies first loses. The competition is limited to a radius of 50 miles. I will set up a barrier at the border. In addition, before the competition, both parties need to swear a great oath, which states that they will not use any external force during the competition, otherwise they will die immediately and automatically lose."
Both parties already knew the rules of the competition. Liu Chengfeng and Hu Xiaotian, one man and one demon, both readily swore an oath to their inner demons. The competition was about to begin.
Therefore, all the cultivators present were concentrating and looking at Liu Chengfeng and Hu Xiaotian on the field. They all wanted to know who would win and lose in this first official competition between humans and demons in nearly 200,000 years.
"The competition begins." Ao Jia gave an order, announcing the official start of the competition.
At the beginning of the competition, Hu Xiaotian directly transformed back into his demon body. For the demon cultivators, they can only exert their strongest strength when fighting in their demon body.
Hu Xiaotian's true form is a black tiger. He did not use any secret techniques, but rushed directly towards Liu Chengfeng. Judging from his fighting style, he is most likely a body cultivator. This is because the bodies of the monsters are mostly naturally stronger than those of humans, so body cultivation is extremely popular among the monsters.
Liu Chengfeng was able to get the chance to participate in the competition, so he was naturally no ordinary person. He also guessed that Hu Xiaotian might be a physical cultivator, so he immediately stepped back, keeping a distance between them, and while controlling the sword with Qi, he launched a tentative attack on Hu Xiaotian.
"Bang!" Hu Xiaotian's tiger claws collided violently with Liu Chengfeng's flying sword, making a sound of metal clashing. Hu Xiaotian's tiger claws were not hurt at all, which completely confirmed his identity as a body refining cultivator.
Then, Hu Xiaotian, relying on the strength of his body, launched an unscrupulous attack on Liu Chengfeng.
Mu Changsheng, who was watching the game from the sidelines, frowned slightly and thought to himself: "Unless Liu Chengfeng's attack power can exceed Hu Xiaotian's physical defense limit, Hu Xiaotian will remain undefeated. The situation is not good."
Mu Changsheng was originally a body-refining cultivator, so he naturally knew the advantages of body-refining cultivators. He could also see that although Hu Xiaotian was only in the early stage of the Golden Core, his physical realm was already close to the peak of the Golden Core. It was really difficult for Liu Chengfeng, who was also in the early stage of the Golden Core, to break his defense.
The direction of the competition was just as Mu Changsheng had expected. Liu Chengfeng's flying sword kept attacking Hu Xiaotian, but was easily blocked by Hu Xiaotian and he failed to make any progress.
However, Liu Chengfeng was not out of tricks. He still had a trump card, and now was the time to reveal it: "Sword formation, start!"
Just as Hu Xiaotian on the field approached Liu Chengfeng, a formation suddenly rose from the ground, covering both Hu Xiaotian and Liu Chengfeng.
Liu Chengfeng was originally a sword cultivator, and this was also a sword formation. The two complemented each other. With the help of the sword formation, Liu Chengfeng's attack power instantly increased.
Liu Chengfeng's sword formation was already a top-level third-grade formation. Now that it was combined with Liu Chengfeng's formation, its power was even greater. Seeing this, Mu Changsheng's eyes lit up and he was delighted: "There is hope."
Many cultivators among the human race could see the trick, so they all showed their joy and looked forward to Liu Chengfeng winning the first competition and getting off to a good start.
But soon, everyone stopped laughing because Hu Xiaotian took out a talisman and instantly broke Liu Chengfeng's sword formation.
When Mu Changsheng took out the talisman from Hu Xiaotian, he was staring at him. As the talisman broke the formation, he also made a judgment and said solemnly: "It is a third-grade formation-breaking talisman."
The array-breaking talisman is also considered a kind of magical talisman. This kind of talisman is divided into only nine grades from one to nine, and there is no so-called elementary, intermediate, advanced, or top grade distinction. As the name suggests, the talisman is only used to break arrays. It is said that it can break all arrays of the same grade. It is precisely because of this incredible ability that the difficulty of refining this kind of talisman is often the highest among talismans of the same grade.
It was surprising enough that Hu Xiaotian could refine a third-grade formation-breaking talisman in the early stage of the Golden Elixir, but in addition to being surprised, Mu Changsheng also felt a little worried.
"If Hu Xiaotian just happens to know how to break the formation talisman, it would be too much of a coincidence for him to fail." Yang Wuque expressed Mu Changsheng's concerns.
"Someone leaked Liu Chengfeng's methods to the demon clan, so the demon clan specifically targeted him and made Hu Xiaotian his opponent." Mu Xun also guessed the reason. This was very bad news, because he and Mu Changsheng's methods might have been leaked as well.
Mu Changsheng's face was solemn. Different cultivators had different methods and it was easy for them to restrain each other. The demon clan had the upper hand this time, so their chances of winning would naturally increase.
"The person who leaked the secret may not be a human." Yang Wuque sighed and explained: "The demon race has demon pills, which can make the demon cultivators shed their demon bodies and become exactly the same as human cultivators. In this way, the demon race can easily plant spies among the human race. On the other hand, we humans do not have similar pills, so it is many times more difficult to plant spies among the demon race."
Mu Changsheng nodded slightly. The Song Zhi he had met before was a spy from the demon clan who had taken the demon pill.
Fortunately, Mu Changsheng and Mu Xun have both made great improvements after the sect competition, so they are not very scared even if some of their methods were leaked.
