At this moment, the scene was quite silent.

Many faces still retained a look of shock and disbelief.

Even for someone like Zhong Tianhao and Master Beichen, both powerful late Golden Core cultivators, their expressions were more solemn than ever.

What Ji Haoyuan had just displayed, that effortless ease, was far beyond what ordinary late Golden Core cultivators could possess.

"Junior Brother Nanhua, he..."

Zhang Tianyang couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Initially, he thought he had already looked highly enough upon Ji Haoyuan's strength.

But now it seemed, this wasn't high enough at all; it was an underestimation that couldn't be lower.

After all, standing before him now was not an ordinary Golden Core but Master Shanyao, whom he lacked the confidence to defeat.

Only Master Lei Xia had a hint of genuine joy in her eyes.

After many years, her junior brother's strength seemed to have greatly improved.

"I... surrender."

Finally, after a moment of silence, Master Shanyao uttered these words through clenched teeth.

Upon hearing this, Ji Haoyuan cupped his fists to him in a salute:

"Senior Brother Shanyao, you've let me win."

With those words, the two successively walked off the Magical Combat Platform.

Afterward, the others continued their magical combat.

However, as time slowly passed, the intensity of the combat noticeably began to rise.

Especially when all the mid-stage Golden Core cultivators were eliminated…

Bang!

With a loud thud, the Golden Core Realm of Zhang Tianyang behind him shattered.

Facing him, Master Beichen cupped his hands lightly and said:

"Senior Brother Zhang, you've let me win."

Witnessing this scene from below, Master Lei Xia couldn't help but sigh softly.

"Senior Brother Zhang has been stationed at the rear for years. Although his Magic Power Cultivation has seen some progress,

his actual combat power hasn't improved much.

It's somewhat regrettable."

Speaking of this, she once again stepped onto the Magical Combat Platform.

This time, her opponent was also Master Beichen.

Throughout the entire magical combat thus far,

the general allocation of the seven Fuya Tokens had basically formed a rough outline.

This included Ji Haoyuan, Zhong Tianhao, and now Master Beichen and Master Lei Xia, on the platform.

The reason for continuing is twofold:

One is for sparring; the other is to vie for the top spot.

After all, the imitation Fourth-Grade True Treasure personally bestowed upon them by the Sect Leader, regardless of its value, just in terms of its power, is enough for none of them to consider giving up.

Boom!

Blades of light and thunder interwove.

After all phenomena on the platform dispersed.

Half of Master Beichen's body was charred black.

Master Lei Xia looked somewhat pale.

A long bloodstain was conspicuous on her right cheek.

But at this moment, she cupped her fists toward Master Beichen opposite her.

"Senior Brother Beichen, you've let me win."

Master Beichen gazed deeply at Master Lei Xia, nodded slightly, and then, together with her, walked off the Magical Combat Platform one after the other.

"Junior brother, next should be your final match against Zhong Tianhao.

The Sect Leader will judge and review based on our previous performances.

Be cautious of his Divine Soul Secret Technique..."

Coming beside Ji Haoyuan, Master Lei Xia immediately transmitted a message to him.

Hmm? The Divine Soul Secret Technique?

Ji Haoyuan felt slightly moved and then smiled and nodded lightly to Master Lei Xia.

"Don't worry, senior sister, I'll be careful."

With those words, Ji Haoyuan directly ascended the Magical Combat Platform.

Facing him, Zhong Tianhao no longer had the demeanor he had when confronting Ji Haoyuan previously, but rather bore an expression of deep solemnity.

Clearly.

After witnessing Ji Haoyuan's tactics earlier, he was deeply aware that the opponent before him was far stronger than he had imagined.

At that moment, he looked at the opponent and suddenly spoke:

"Junior Brother Nanhua, in this duel, I will only make three moves. If you can withstand them all, I'll admit defeat, how about it?"

Zhong Tianhao's words caused not only many observers to be a bit stunned.

Especially those cultivators familiar with Zhong Tianhao's personality.

Upon hearing his words, each individual wore an expression of heaviness on their faces.

However, those like Master Lei Xia on the other side had slightly tense expressions.

Because they could see that although Zhong Tianhao said he'd make three moves, he hadn't specified the time required for each.

This meant that some of the high-power magic on his body might need some time to brew.

This wasn't a good sign for Ji Haoyuan.

Nonetheless, Ji Haoyuan didn't care.

To him now, no matter what ideas or means his opponent employed, they held no significance.

The result would be the same.

Since that was the case, he naturally didn't mind.

So he nodded and said: "Senior Brother Zhong may proceed."

Saying so, he gestured invitingly to his opponent.

"Alright!"

Zhong Tianhao didn't hesitate any longer. After replying, he began to rapidly form a series of hand seals.

Bzzzz!

In an instant, the surrounding Spiritual Qi began to stir intensely.

Suddenly, streaks of lightning appeared in mid-air.

Soon, a pitch-black storm formed around these lightning streaks.

Within a hundred meters, the sky turned completely dark.

Hmm? What is this?

Ji Haoyuan's eyes showed slight astonishment.

Because if he remembered correctly, back in Heaven-Piercing Valley, when Zhou Kun wielded that Doomsday Wind Disaster Banner, it seemed to produce this kind of phenomenon.

However, the doomsday scene before him was conjured by Zhong Tianhao,

and in terms of grandeur and actual power, it surpassed the Doomsday Wind Disaster Banner by many folds.

Whish—

At this moment, a massive storm flashing with lightning at its core, and completely pitch-black, swept toward Ji Haoyuan.

This storm could dissolve flesh and bones of cultivators.

Anyone struck, without the strength to resist, would instantly lose all vitality.

Interesting...

As Ji Haoyuan watched the pitch-black storm draw closer, he suddenly raised his hand.

Fiery orange-red flames rapidly gathered in his palm.

The next moment, these flames stretched lengthwise, transforming into a spear dozens of meters long.

Its surface was encircled by starlight.

With a gentle throw from Ji Haoyuan.

That spear turned into a blaze and shot straight into the pitch-black storm.

Boom!

Instantly, the massive pitch-black storm, along with the silver-white lightning at its core, seemed ignited by the flame carried by the spear.

Blazed vigorously in moments.

Soon, the dark clouds scattered, the sky returned to clear.

The pitch-black storm and lightning vanished without a trace.

"What?"

Seeing Ji Haoyuan so effortlessly dispel Zhong Tianhao's attack, not only was everyone present stunned, but even Zhong Tianhao himself showed a hint of disbelief on his face.
