This meant that only ten people could defend the arena at a time.
Once on the stage, Qian Duoduo looked around and found that Yu Yixiang had also ascended the stage to defend.
However, including her, the other nine people who first ascended the stage all had higher cultivation levels than him. This meant that he was the only Qi Condensation Level Five.
In the stands, many Disciples pointed at Qian Duoduo and discussed, needless to say, all praising his audacity.
He didn't want to show off, but he really did. Qian Duoduo sighed in his heart. However, this was also good; more people would challenge him, allowing him to complete his defense earlier.
Sure enough, a Qi Condensation Level Six Senior Brother roared, "I'm here to challenge!" With a hint of a sneer, he thumped onto the arena. His two fists were surprisingly golden, obviously wearing Magic Treasure gloves.
As soon as the referee shouted 'Start', this Senior Brother charged forward, swinging his fists. His fists carried wind, and the wind carried a chill.
This was bullying Qian Duoduo because his cultivation was lower, trying to use brute force against skill.
Then let's directly compare who is more barbaric. Qian Duoduo pointed with his sword art, and the Golden Rooster Sword went directly towards the golden fists.
The Everlasting Wealth and Nobility Art had re-molded Qian Duoduo's Spiritual Vein; he had never been afraid of anyone in a head-on clash.
"Bang!" With an inevitable loud bang, strong winds scattered across the arena. This Senior Brother retreated a step, a look of fear on his face.
"Don't go, again!" The Golden Rooster Sword circled around and charged straight back, colliding with that Senior Brother's fists.
That Senior Brother's face was in pain, his hands dropped, trembling incessantly, and he uttered the words "I concede."
As soon as he stepped off the stage, a rat-headed, rat-eyed Senior Brother walked onto the stage. After greeting, he held a small flying fork in his hand and moved around the arena constantly.
Qian Duoduo tried to stab him with the Golden Rooster Sword several times, but he skillfully dodged them. He had never encountered such fast movement.
"He's jumping around like this, he must be expending stamina. I can't outrun you, so I won't run anymore, just watch your performance." Qian Duoduo slowed his movements.
That Senior Brother saw Qian Duoduo waiting at ease, almost sitting on the ground, so he threw the flying fork in his hand into the air.
A white light shot up into the sky, very eye-catching.
Many spectating Disciples cupped their hands over their eyes, wanting to see what had flown into the sky.
But Qian Duoduo's Spiritual Awareness captured a gray mist, which landed on the arena and slowly approached him.
The shifty-looking Senior Brother, with his left hand behind his back and his right hand pointing at Qian Duoduo, looked up at the sky, seemingly controlling a Magic Treasure to attack Qian Duoduo from the air.
Qian Duoduo pointed at the gray mist, and the Golden Rooster Sword flew out. "Bang," the Golden Rooster Sword stuck into the stage, its tip piercing a flying fork, which was precisely the rat-headed Senior Brother's.
It turned out that this Magic Treasure flying fork had a confusing function; what flew into the sky was just an illusion, while its true form transformed into smoke and launched an attack from the ground. Its main purpose was to catch one off guard with a close-range sneak attack.
With his Magic Treasure destroyed, that Senior Brother cupped his hands, didn't even pick up the flying fork, and directly stepped off the stage.
Qian Duoduo won two consecutive matches, crushing the hopes of the Senior Brothers below who wanted to take advantage. After a long while, a scrawny Senior Brother slowly walked onto the stage.
"Niu Dan, please enlighten me."
That Senior Brother was gentle, fair-skinned, and looked harmless. But Qian Duoduo knew that anyone who could remain undefeated for three consecutive elimination rounds and step onto the arena to defend couldn't be simple.
"Jin Buhuan, please guide me, Senior Brother." Qian Duoduo bowed deeply. He was polite, so Qian Duoduo couldn't be barbaric either.
"I wouldn't dare." Senior Brother Niu Dan rubbed his hands, and two large black axes appeared in his hands.
Scrawny arms, yet holding axes larger than his head, he was no different from a super praying mantis. He hadn't even started fighting, but he was already awe-inspiring.
Senior Brother Niu Dan placed the axes behind him, but his feet took a swift stride, stretching his neck, and he charged forward.
"What kind of move is this?" After all these days of fighting in the training ground, Qian Duoduo had never seen it, and his heart trembled. He summoned the Golden Rooster Sword and swung it in front of him. If Senior Brother Niu Dan didn't change his posture, it would be equivalent to sending his neck to the sword, and Qian Duoduo couldn't be blamed if he lost his life.
Just as the Golden Rooster Sword was about to cut Senior Brother Niu Dan's slender neck, Senior Brother Niu Dan suddenly pushed off his leg, accelerated his movement, and actually rushed more than three feet away.
Not good! Senior Brother Niu Dan was playing with Qian Duoduo. Qian Duoduo secretly thought it was bad and quickly retreated, while controlling the Golden Rooster Sword to attack Senior Brother Niu Dan's back.
But at this point, how could he retreat? The scrawny Senior Brother Niu Dan smiled faintly, his right hand's giant axe had already struck Qian Duoduo's left shoulder.
With a muffled thud, Senior Brother Niu Dan's smile froze. The scene of skin and flesh tearing that he had anticipated did not appear.
Beneath Qian Duoduo's blue robe, there was also the Golden Claw Armor!
Some Disciples in the stands stood up, pointing at the damaged part of Qian Duoduo's blue robe, shouting, "He has defensive armor!"
Qian Duoduo endured the discomfort brought by the massive shock and counterattacked Senior Brother Niu Dan with the Golden Rooster Sword.
"Bang." What the sword tip pierced, however, was the axe that Senior Brother Niu Dan had placed behind him.
The axe was large, his body was small, and the axe could be used as a shield.
Attacking with the right hand, defending with the left hand, this Senior Brother, though thin, was full of tricks!
The two figures separated. Qian Duoduo's left shoulder was still numb, and he felt immense admiration for this Senior Brother Niu Dan in his heart. In all his days at the training ground, no one had been able to land a single sword or axe strike on Qian Duoduo.
Senior Brother Niu Dan brandished both axes, swinging them into two black circles, and once again pressed towards Qian Duoduo.
"Clang." The clash of axe and sword sparked a streak of electricity, which actually shot towards Qian Duoduo.
The material of this axe was problematic; it seemed to be lightning-struck ironwood! Qian Duoduo had long put aside his disdain, concentrated his attention, and dodged the electric attack.
Senior Brother Niu Dan fought with increasing ferocity, as if endless brute strength resided within his narrow shoulders and thin arms.
Qian Duoduo spotted an opening, severed the handle of one of the axes, forcing Senior Brother Niu Dan to lower his head.
Although he conceded, Qian Duoduo was also drenched in sweat, having expended considerable physical strength, and began to realize that defending the arena was physically demanding.
An excessively fat Senior Sister walked up, her face not merely round, but round within round. Her Aura, without a doubt, was also that of a Qi Condensation Level Six.
Qian Duoduo cupped his hands and bowed, "Hello, Senior Sister!" He used the greeting to buy himself more time to recover his strength.
"I am your Senior Sister." The fat Senior Sister's eyes were cold, her voice hoarse, and with a flick of her orchid-finger, four banners flew out, landing at the four corners of the arena. The arena immediately grew cold, and plumes of black smoke spewed from the banners. In a short while, Qian Duoduo could see nothing.
Qian Duoduo released his Spiritual Awareness, and his panicked heart settled down. The black smoke could block Spiritual Awareness; if it were an ordinary Outer Sect Disciple, their Spiritual Awareness would probably only extend three feet at this point. But Qian Duoduo had cultivated the Everlasting Wealth and Nobility Art, and his Spiritual Awareness was almost ten times that of Disciples at the same level. This bit of black smoke couldn't trap him.
In his Spiritual Awareness, Qian Duoduo captured the fat Senior Sister slowly approaching, circling behind Qian Duoduo. Her already small eyes narrowed into a cold glint, and a long sword in her hand quietly extended, pointing at Qian Duoduo's throat.
The moment the sword reached Qian Duoduo's throat would be the moment the fat Senior Sister won.
Qian Duoduo pretended to be flustered, wildly waving the Golden Rooster Sword in the air, shouting incoherently, "I can see you, I see you..."
The fat Senior Sister's face twitched a few times, probably from trying to suppress her triumph, wanting to laugh but unable to.
Less than a foot from Qian Duoduo's back, the fat Senior Sister was about to unleash her sword light to make Qian Duoduo surrender. But her neck felt a chill, and a voice simultaneously sounded in her ear.
"Can we end this now?"
