Wen Tailai was extremely angry. This Kid's life was comparable to a cockroach. Almost every time, he survived again in the face of impossibility.
"I'll let you be free for a few days!" Wen Tailai's face showed a sinister expression.
Not only Wen Tailai, but Zhang Hao also did not hide his killing intent towards Wen Tailai at this moment.
This guy has repeatedly caused him trouble. Even a clay figure like Zhang Hao has some temper. If given the chance, Zhang Hao wouldn't mind killing the opponent. However, he still needed to plan for the long term. After all, behind Wen Tailai stood the Deputy Sect Leader of the Hao Xian Sect. He wasn't someone Zhang Hao could kill just because he wanted to. A detailed plan was necessary.
Of course, the most important thing for Zhang Hao at this moment was to enter the Inner Sect. Only by entering the Inner Sect of the Hao Xian Sect could he gain importance. At that time, Wen Tailai would not dare to act rashly.
The second round, second match of the Outer Gate Competition top ten began.
This match was Liao Yanxiang against Qi Zhao.
On the stage, Liao Yanxiang and Qi Zhao faced each other from a distance.
"Brother Liao, I've wanted to fight you for a long time. Now I finally have the chance. I hope this battle can be a hearty one," Qi Zhao looked coldly at Liao Yanxiang.
Liao Yanxiang nodded slightly and said to Qi Zhao with a firm expression, "Me too!"
"Match begins!" The Referee shouted as he saw both sides were ready.
Almost the instant the Referee announced the start of the match, both sides moved almost simultaneously.
"Swish!"
"Clang, clang, clang, clang..."
In almost a single breath, the saber and the spear collided dozens of times in the air. Both sides were too fast, so fast that the people below the stage were dazzled.
"Spark Spreading Wildfire!"
"Flying Spear Kill!"
This saber strike carried a terrifying flame, as if it came from a sea of hellfire. Wherever it passed, sparks spread like wildfire.
Qi Zhao's expression remained unchanged. He thrust this spear out, directly piercing through that flaming saber. The flames dispersed.
This spear strike from Qi Zhao was powerful and heavy. After dispersing Liao Yanxiang's flaming saber strike, its momentum did not dissipate and continued to thrust towards Liao Yanxiang.
Liao Yanxiang was greatly surprised. He swayed his body and quickly retreated, trying to avoid this spear. But while he was fast, Qi Zhao's speed was also not slow.
"Absolute Spear Reverse Kill..."
This spear was several times faster than before, creating swirls of air as it thrust through the void.
Liao Yanxiang's expression was extremely solemn. He roared and unleashed nine consecutive saber strikes.
Nine huge saber shadows instantly appeared in the void. The nine huge saber shadows instantly condensed into one saber strike, slashing down towards Qi Zhao with the momentum of a mountain. Saber Qi raged, annihilating everything in its path.
Qi Zhao snorted coldly. He shook the long spear in his hand, and a terrifying aura emanated from it. Its momentum remained unchanged, and he thrust the spear down again.
"Boom!"
Liao Yanxiang's saber strike was instantly broken. The powerful impact sent him flying backward.
"Whoa!"
Liao Yanxiang couldn't help but let out a cry and spit out a mouthful of fresh blood. He looked at Qi Zhao with a look of horror and asked, "You... you actually cultivated..."
"Hmph, Brother Liao, you've conceded!" Qi Zhao put away the long spear in his hand and smiled faintly at Liao Yanxiang.
Liao Yanxiang said somewhat dejectedly, "Losing is losing, but I won't be defeated by this. Between us, there will be another battle sooner or later!"
Qi Zhao smiled faintly and said, "Then I shall await it!"
This battle was too exciting. The Martial Warriors below the stage were dazzled. Liu Jie and others beside Zhang Hao also watched with great admiration.
Liu Jie said to Zhang Hao with a solemn expression, "Zhang Hao, this Qi Zhao is definitely a major opponent for you."
Zhang Hao also nodded with a solemn expression and said, "Yes, I feel it too."
Indeed, at this moment, Zhang Hao was still thinking about what that move Qi Zhao used to defeat Liao Yanxiang was. At that time, he felt a chilling power erupt. Then Liao Yanxiang was defeated without any resistance. If he faced Qi Zhao and Qi Zhao used that move against him, how should he deal with it?
Next, this battle was the ranking battle for the top three. The top three contestants had appeared: Liu Mengyao, Zhang Hao, and Qi Zhao. Although Liu Mengyao entered the top three due to good luck and a bye, no one had any objections. After all, Liu Mengyao's strength was obvious to all.
The next battle was Liu Mengyao against Qi Zhao.
This battle was also highly anticipated. Martial Warriors were also discussing the outcome of this battle between the two. However, those who supported Liu Mengyao winning still accounted for the majority. But there were also many who supported Qi Zhao. After all, Qi Zhao had just defeated Liao Yanxiang and was at the peak of his popularity.
Liu Jie was also very excited. He looked at Zhang Hao and asked curiously, "Zhang Hao, who do you think will win this battle?"
Zhang Hao frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "Liu Mengyao!"
Liu Jie was slightly startled. He looked at Zhang Hao and asked curiously, "Why? Is it because she's beautiful?"
Zhang Hao knew Liu Jie was joking. He shook his head and said indifferently, "No, it's because I always feel that Liu Mengyao has hidden very deep power."
Liu Jie looked at Zhang Hao with some surprise, but since Zhang Hao said so, there must be his reasoning.
Zhang Hao looked deeply at Liu Mengyao, who was confronting Qi Zhao on the stage. He remembered their first meeting. Although they had exchanged blows at that time, Zhang Hao knew that Liu Mengyao had used at most thirty percent of her strength then. And the current Liu Mengyao was much more sharp than she was at that time. However, even at this moment, Liu Mengyao should still be holding back. He had a premonition that the one who would compete with him for first place would be Liu Mengyao.
"Heh heh, no matter how much you've held back, this first place, Young Master is determined to get it," Zhang Hao's face showed strong confidence.
On the stage, Qi Zhao and Liu Mengyao were locked in fierce combat. This match was even more intense than the previous battle between Qi Zhao and Liao Yanxiang.
However, after three hundred moves, Qi Zhao was defeated.
Qi Zhao looked at the bloody sword mark on his chest, looked at Mengyao, and smiled bitterly, "Mengyao, although I knew I was no match for you, I didn't expect to be defeated so quickly."
Liu Mengyao's eyebrows stood on end, and she said coldly, "I know you haven't used your full strength!"
Qi Zhao shook his head and said helplessly, "I know that even if I use my full strength, it would only delay the time of defeat. It has no meaning. I concede this battle."
After saying that, Qi Zhao turned and jumped off the stage.
The Referee immediately announced, "This battle, Liu Mengyao wins!"
Next, it was time for the battle between Zhang Hao and Qi Zhao. Zhang Hao had just watched carefully. When Qi Zhao faced Liu Mengyao, he did not use the move he used to defeat Liao Yanxiang. Obviously, he knew that using that move against Liu Mengyao would have no meaning, and it was better to hide his trump card. This indeed made Zhang Hao vigilant.
