Chapter 4289 Extremely Thrilling!
Following Chen Xiaobei's exclamation, everyone's eyes immediately focused on the arena.
I saw that Ye Zhilan was fighting a person from an unknown force at the moment.
Due to the similar cultivation bases, the two sides fought evenly.
What shocked Chen Xiaobei was that Ye Zhilan's opponent could actually release a special ability that interfered with the power of the Holy Yuan.
Just like an energy field, Ye Zhilan's offensive will be bounced away about 30% of the time.
"How can there be such a power!?"
The Corpse Saint Emperor was surprised: "Is that the legendary ability of the Holy Spirit family? It's too heaven-defying! Bounce part of the opponent's energy, which is tantamount to gaining an advantage in cultivation!"
Ye Hongtian nodded again and again, and said, "Yes! Thanks to Zhilan's quick response, otherwise he would be at a disadvantage now!"
I have to say that Ye Zhilan's fighting talent is really outstanding.
With the same level of cultivation, facing the enemy's supernatural abilities, Ye Zhilan relied on her extremely fast reaction and excellent fighting awareness to save herself from danger.
If it had been another person, it would have been a crushing defeat by now.
"Danger!"
Chen Xiaobei suddenly exclaimed.
His cultivation was already much higher than that of Ye Hongtian and the Corpse Saint Emperor, and his insight into the battle situation could naturally be one step faster.
Just when everyone thought that Ye Zhilan was evenly matched with her opponent, Chen Xiaobei had already seen the problem.
"Wow..."
In the arena, the opponent suddenly activated a supernatural power, removing 30% of Ye Zhilan's offensive power.
Ye Zhilan was the same as before, still adopting the strategy of temporarily avoiding the edge.
While dodging, while staying on defense.
But this time, Ye Zhilan never expected that the opponent who was supposed to be out of the air like before, suddenly increased in speed, like a ghost, and escaped behind Ye Zhilan from an extremely tricky angle.
"Hmph! I just kept paralyzing you! Let you think that you can easily dodge my attack! When you relax your vigilance, I can give you a fatal blow!"
The opponent grinned grimly.
Released all his holy energy, formed a huge golden light sword, and slashed behind Ye Zhilan.
"Not good! The enemy is too cunning!"
At this moment, Ye Hongtian and Emperor Shisheng saw the clue, and both exclaimed.
No wonder this opponent obviously possessed extremely powerful abilities, yet he kept fighting Ye Zhilan evenly.
It turned out that he had been hiding his clumsiness all along so that Ye Zhilan could relax her vigilance.
Because the cultivation bases of the two sides are too close, if you don't use tricks and fight head-on, it's really not sure who will win.
Therefore, this opponent used cunning calculations to increase his chances of winning to almost 100%.
"It's over!"
At this moment, Chen Xiaobei, Ye Hongtian, and the Corpse Saint Emperor all showed expressions of despair.
In this situation, Ye Zhilan was almost certain to die.
"Shua!"
In the next instant, that opponent's golden giant sword cut Ye Zhilan's body in half!
"Hahaha……"
The man laughed triumphantly and raised his arms high, celebrating his victory.
However, he did not notice that not a single drop of blood flowed out of Ye Zhilan's body that had been cut in half.
"Sa!"
At this moment, Ye Zhilan's shattered body suddenly disintegrated, and it turned out to be a phantom.
Ye Zhilan herself had already appeared behind that person.
Seeing a flash of cold light, Ye Zhilan sacrificed a silver holy force, and directly chopped off the man's head.
"What... what's going on!?"
The man's soul flew out of the corpse, looking at Ye Zhilan in disbelief.
"Although you are hiding your clumsiness, I haven't tried my best!"
Ye Zhilan smiled lightly and said: "This is the second soul power that I realized, even my grandfather didn't know it! It was originally my hidden trump card, but I didn't expect you to force it out in the first round!"
"The clone teleports...I...I admit defeat..."
The opponent lost his physique, and he had been using supernatural powers all the time, and his mental power was consumed too much, and he was no longer able to fight anymore.
"Ring No. 69, Deng Chao admits defeat, the winners are Hong Tiancheng and Ye Zhilan!"
Following a loud voice in the venue, both Ye Zhilan and her opponent were teleported out of the ring.
"Shua!"
Ye Zhilan flew directly to the stands.
"You girl! You didn't say anything in advance because you hid the second soul power! You scared the old man to death!" Ye Hongtian wiped off his cold sweat, not to worry too much just now.
Ye Zhilan quickly explained: "Isn't this just to hide a trump card? If Grandpa knew in advance, he would act as if he had a chance to win, and my opponent would be wary!"
"Hmm... makes sense!" Ye Hongtian looked at his granddaughter fondly, feeling relieved from the bottom of his heart.
Seeing this, even the Corpse Saint Emperor was full of praise for Ye Zhilan: "Miss Ye is really talented! She can actually comprehend the supernatural power of the second soul, which is quite rare among the younger generation!"
"Thank you senior for your compliment!"
Ye Zhilan smiled, looked at Chen Xiaobei, and asked, "Mr. Chen, what do you think?"
"I was taken aback too..."
Chen Xiaobei praised without hesitation: "Your combat awareness and talent are very strong, you also have very good acting skills and strong abilities, it really impresses me!"
"Admiration? You mean, did you think I was weak before?" Ye Zhilan slightly annoyed.
"No, that's not what I meant..." Chen Xiaobei shrugged, smiling badly in his heart, you are also very weak now.
"You are the one who really impresses me!"
Ye Zhilan said with a face full of surprise: "I thought you would admit defeat, but I didn't expect that in just three months, you have already reached the mid-term strength of the Nine-Star True Sage. This improvement in cultivation is really almost heaven-defying! "
"It's okay..." Chen Xiaobei smiled: "Actually, I'm pretty strong, you guys underestimate me!"
"What!? Are you still hiding your cultivation?" Ye Zhilan was full of surprise: "Impossible, after three months, I have improved so much, it is impossible to hide..."
The Corpse Saint Emperor frowned and said: "My dear disciple! Don't be brave! More than 400 people were eliminated in the first round, and the rest are almost all above the realm of the Holy King. Even if you still hide, you have no chance of winning! Let's admit defeat! !"
"Yes!" Ye Hongtian said in a deep voice, "You have already exceeded our expectations by winning the first round. There is no need to take any more risks!"
Obviously, everyone still cared about Chen Xiaobei and didn't want Chen Xiaobei to continue taking risks.
"I'll do what I can, and when I really can't do it, I will naturally admit defeat!" Chen Xiaobei shrugged, smiling lightly.
Everyone wanted to persuade them again, but at this moment, a loud voice came from the arena again.
"The first round of competition is over, all contestants are invited to return to the arena, and the second round of grouping is about to begin!"
