As You Wish
Boom!
The gigantic fan of light struck down.
The ground trembled once more as Qin Si was forced to dodge, making him look like he was in a terrible situation.
The Snow Jade Space was already riddled with cuts from the fan, the ground had many gorges all around, making the terrain look extremely terrifying. But what made everyone marvel was that the Snow Jade Space that was being cut apart by the fan of light was actually regenerating slowly. It was as though the Snow Jade Space was a living thing that held recovering abilities.
Qin Si and Huo Quan Cai no longer cared about faulting the Snow Jade Space, one was attacking in berserk, the other dodging frantically. Finally, Qin Si was forced to a corner, where the space barrier was right by his side… He no longer had any place to dodge to.
“It’s over!”
Huo Quan Cai roared and swung his fan towards Qin Si. The gigantic fan of light immediately reacted, flipping in the air and distancing itself 1m from the ground, then it swept towards Qin Si. It had an imposing aura that seemed to swallow its surroundings! Facing the attack, Qin SI was incapable of escaping!
But!
In that moment of peril, Qin Si quietly took out a purple bell and stared at the incoming fan with a calm expression. He did not panic at all and when the fan was close to him with the Swift Wind Spirit Qi blowing onto his body, Qin Si shook the bell.
Hummmm!
The bell unleashed a halo of blue light, which completely engulfed Qin Si… Qin Si disappeared!
“What?”
Upon seeing that, all the spectators were stunned. Huo Quan Cai was even more surprised and looked at the spot that Qin Si had disappeared from in shock. The fan of light continued its motion, whereby the White Haired Ape Sage was incapable of dodging and was directly cut into two, causing blood to splatter over the Snow Jade Space.
Huo Quan Cai frowned, he stopped his dance and scrutinized the place. Just then, a ripple undulated from the position that Qin Si had disappeared from, the blue light reappeared, and inside the light aura stood the reflection of a bare Qin Si.
“Is that an independent space?” Huo Quan Cai seemed to have thought of something, and asked in shock: “You actually have a spatial treasure? And you hid inside that space?”
“That’s right!” Qin Si said coldly: “I have such a treasure, your killing technique is useless against me! Huo Quan Cai, you have used your consummate technique multiple times, I think that you have exhausted almost all of the Profound Spirit Qi in your body, right? Then, it’s my turn!” With that said, Qin Si’s body flickered, his speed had increased as he exploded towards Huo Quan Cai.
Hearing that, Huo Quan Cai’s heart tightened, he immediately danced and waved his fan at Qin Si again. However, just as Qin Si had said, Huo Quan Cai did not have much Spirit Qi left and although his attack was destructive enough, its speed had evidently slowed.
Qin Si shook the bell again and hid inside his spatial treasure, dodging the fan of light and jumped out again like a ghost appearing and disappearing. He got closer and closer towards Huo Quan Cai and by transferring his Spirit Qi to his arm, he used his hand as a blade and slashed at Huo Quan Cai’s neck.
Seeing that, Huo Quan Cai immediately utilized his defensive treasure and protected his neck, instantly producing the black iron around his neck.
Whooosh.
Qin Si’s hand blade struck at Huo Quan Cai, but the blade did not touch the black iron, instead directly going through Huo Quan Cai’s neck like mist and disappeared. Seeing that, Huo Quan Cai’s eyes dilated, his heart stopped for that millisecond.
“Illusion?”
Puchi!
A heart wrenching pain was transmitted from Huo Quan Cai’s arm.
“Ah!!!”
He released a painful scream, he looked at his arm only to realize that the hand that was holding onto the fan had been cut off without him noticing! His hand that held onto the fan dropped straight to the ground.
Qin Si took advantage of the success and continued his attack, imbuing his leg with dense Spirit Qi, he kicked Huo Quan Cai’s chest.
The Spirit Qi transmitted from Qin Si’s feet into Huo Quan Cai’s chest, causing his internal organs to tremble and shatter. Huo Quan Cai’s face turned white as he vomited blood out, and struck the wall of the Snow Jade Space.
The victor seemed to have been decided! The huge turnaround made the spectators speechless.
“Powerful! He used an illusion to deceive Huo Quan Cai, making him think that he was about to go for a fatal strike, but in truth his goal had always been Huo Quan Cai’s hand! Huo Quan Cai have exhausted a lot of his Spirit Qi, now that he is crippled, his ability to fight has dropped substantially, he is no longer Qin Si’s opponent! Qin Si has won!”
Su Yun thought to himself.
Huo Quan Cai was very strong, but in terms of planning, he could not be compared to Qin Si, be it producing an illusion palm or hiding his real hand, these things were easy feats to spirit master cultivators, but was used professionally at such a crucial moment, causing people to have to respect his courage and decision making. If it were any other person, if they were to choose, they would have directly went straight for Huo Quan Cai’s neck! Since the opportunity to kill him was so hard earned, if they were to miss it, they would not get another chance.
With his hand being cut off, the Spirit Qi link was disconnected, causing the gigantic fan of light in the middle of the Snow Jade Space to disappear.
Qin Si imbued sharp Spirit Qi into his hands and with a cold expression, he slowly walked towards Huo Quan Cai.
Boom!!!
He thrusted one of his hands into Huo Quan Cai’s left shoulder, exploding and ripping apart his shoulders, even exploding his thoracic cavity. Blood spurted all over, Huo Quan Cai’s internal organs were heavily damaged, an injury where a normal human being would have long died. If not for the Spirit Qi in him not dissipating, Huo Quan Cai would have long passed away.
According to the competition rules, the competition should have ended. But Zhu Wen did not dare to speak out because the organisation that Huo Quan Cai represented had not said a thing.
Su Yun stared at the Qin Si, whose eyes were bloodthirsty and cold, and frowned slightly. There were no emotions in Qin Si’s eyes, his methods were ruthless and completely disregarded all consequences. He was most likely already prepared to kill Huo Quan Cai.
Inside Hua Wei Chamber of Commerce’s pavilion…
“President, if we do not stop it now, Huo Quan Cai will die on the stage!”
A man clad in purple armor cupped his fists and spoke to the indistinct figure behind the curtain made of beads.
“He is trash, why do you want to save him? To waste even more cultivation coins?” The figure spoke with a cold voice.
The purple armored man did not know how to reply, he cupped his fists, and no longer said anything. The pavilion’s silence was naturally noted by Huo Quan Cai.
Right from the start, he knew and understood the relationship he had with Hua Wei Chamber of Commerce. To him, Hua Wei Chamber of Commerce was a money bag, able to provide him with cultivation coins and treasures, a useful existence for him. However, in the eyes of the Commerce, he was just a pawn piece that could be thrown away at anytime.
“They are truly ruthless.” Huo Quan Cai’s mouth revealed a bitter smile, he looked at the pavilion, then turned his eyes to Qin Si, who was standing before him. Qin Si was staring at him coldly, with a faint killing intent in his eyes. Huo Quan Cai knew that he was unable to escape his fate, he fiercely took a breath, then closed his eyes without saying a word.
Qin Si was delighted, he congealed his Spirit Qi into a blade and slashed down.
Puchi!
Huo Quan Cai’s head flew. At least he had decided to spare Huo Quan Cai from the pain. Blood flowed everywhere. The round had ended.
Huo Quan Cai’s headless corpse laid inside the Snow Jade Space, no one collected his body, since no one was willing to protect the spirit of Huo Quan Cai. When Feng Ling Sheng died, he relied on the spirit preserving treasure that his family had given him, but Huo Quan Cai did not have such a treasure, his spirit would fly out of his body and ultimately would be absorbed by a Spirit Cultivator or a Spirit Beast, that was when he would truly die.
The entire place was silent.
It was not the first time the spectators had watched a participant being killed in the competition, but everytime they watched it, it would still bring them shock!
Silence.
A creepy silence.
After an unknown period of time, a voice finally came out.
“I-I will now officially announce that the victor of the r-round is Participant Qin Si, from the Yu Shuang Auction house!” Zhu Wen went up on stage and shouted with his trembling voice.
However, the site did not have much reaction. Such an ending seemed to be unacceptable to many people.
Out of the four representatives from the sponsoring organisations, only one remained and only three participants remained for the competition: Su Yun, Han Yue Xin and Qin Si.
Qin Si and Huo Quan Cai fought an intense battle, thus, the officials would definitely not allow him to come out again, his meant that the participants for the next round was already determined.
Su Yun took a deep breath then stood up and walked along the walkway. At the same time, Han Yue Xin, who was dressed in blue, also stood up. She looked at Su Yun, then walked gently and steadily into the Snow Jade Space.
Su Yun stepped into the space and immediately felt the bone chilling cold. The wind was as sharp as blades, drawing the heat away from his body, even his entire skeletal structure seemed to be trembling. The snow that dropped on his body were like stones that obstructed his Spirit Essences, preventing any Spirit Qi from flowing out of his body.
To battle in such a harsh environment, the difficulty could only be imagined.
On the ground, Huo Quan Cai’s blood had not dried up. Su Yun unsheathed his Scarlet Blood Sword and looked at Han Yue Xin.
The fighting intent in her eyes was extremely dense and she looked like a worthy opponent. Against her, Su Yun knew that it would be difficult for him to gain the upper hand, the only method that he knew was to confuse her mental state.
“Su Yun, I hope that you do not hold back and use everything you have, because I will also do my best to defeat you! I hope that we will be able to enjoy this competition!”
Han Yue Xin then lifted her blue sword up, leveling it to her eyes as she aimed the sword tip at Su Yun and said.
“As you wish!” Su Yun nodded.
“Dong” The bell chimed. Announcing the beginning of the competition.
Han Yue Xin extended her slender fingers and pressed it on her sword, causing the sword body to unleash a large amount of Cold Qi, which seemed to interweave with the Cold Qi inside the Snow Jade Space.
Suddenly, Su Yun’s facial expression changed, he sensed that something was amiss. The Snow Jade Space’s wind and snow actually did not affect Han Yue Xin at all! It felt as if it was a living thing, when the wind and snow approached Han Yue Xin’s body, they would automatically turn direction and detour around her.
~What’s going on? Han Yue Xin can actually control the wind and snow in here? If that’s the case, fighting with her will be even more troublesome.~
Su Yun held onto the Immortal Mystical Scarlet Blood Sword tightly, focusing his eyes on Han Yue Xin.
“Are you ready? Su Yun, I’m coming!” Han Yue Xin said coldly.
~Who cares!~
Su Yun sighed, then nodded his head: “Come!”
With his confirmation, Han Yue Xin suddenly pulled her sword back, and poked it into the ground.
“Crack crack crack crack”
The ground started to crack as many transparent and sharp glaciers shot out from the ground, paving a way towards Su Yun. This technique was imposing and powerful enough to showcase her strength… But it was not a killing technique.
Han Yue Xin was still Han Yue Xin, with the strong wind and snow, she intended to use these icicles to form a wall to block and pave a way for the wind and snow, forming a current that directed even more wind and snow at Su Yun.
As long as sufficient wind and snow was harassing Su Yun, it would decrease his fighting strength, winning the round would be much easier for her.
