Chapter 1309: The First Round of the Finals

The Sky Will Dragon King pondered for a moment before answering, "His immortal body is exceptionally powerful. As for concealment capabilities, his strength is indeed exceedingly high. This probably has something to do with the immortal behind him."

"There really is an immortal behind him?" asked the Tian Ming Dragon Lord.

The Sky Chariot Dragon King answered with a darkened face, "What else could explain all this? How long has it been since he ascended as an immortal? How long does it take to become a Xuan immortal? You guys should know how old Luo Pin is. He's at most several hundred years older than Luo Pin in the mortal domain. At most, he has cultivated for a thousand years or so. Someone like him would still be considered a unique talent even in the most elite sky palaces. Without an immortal behind him, how could he have achieved it?"

The Sky Shadow Dragon Queen interrupted, "Let's leave it there. Don't boost their morale while reducing our courage before we are certain of it. At least for now, Tian Ming has to come out first."

The Sky Will Dragon King turned to Lin Xiaoting and said, "Be decisive and don't look down on your opponent."

"Yes, Father," Lin Xiaoting answered readily. "Although he made it to the top four by relying on his mystiques, he will be placed fourth at most."

As for the rumors saying that Wu Yu might be a 9-Xuan immortal, Lin Xiaoting wasn't afraid. This was because there were over 30 9-Xuan immortal realm participants this time. The reason why Tian Zi, Yin Wu, and him could emerge at the top was because they were ultimate mystical dragons.

At the equivalent realm of 9-Xuan immortal, an ultimate mystical dragon could easily defeat two supreme mystical dragons.

They were the strongest among all those at the Nine Xuan Dao Realm!

They might be surpassed by Wu Yu when it came to hunting down targets, because Wu Yu had that clone mystique. However, they were never afraid of him in battle.

"Tian Ming, rest assured. You won't have the chance to fight with Wu Yu," Lin Xiaoting said confidently.

The Tian Ming Dragon Lord answered, "I do hope you lose in battle. In that case, I could make him beg for mercy personally."

"Big Brother Tian Ming, if you still feel compassion towards me in the first round, you will be able to fight with Wu Yu for third place~" Tian Zi joked.

The Tian Ming Dragon Lord paused momentarily but smiled and said, "That wouldn't be possible. You could have gotten second. What a shame!"

"It's all because of that Wu Yu. Lin Xiaoting! You have to trash him utterly. If it wasn't for him, you wouldn't be placed above me." Tian Zi was still feeling a little indignant.

She was clearly slated to come out in third place at this rate. Just why was her luck worse than Lin Xiaoting's?

If she knew this would happen, she wouldn't have competed against Lin Xiaoting. She might as well have taken things easy for a few days during the earlier competition.

"If you are so confident, make your words count," the Sky Will Dragon King said plainly.

Behind them, Tian Ming asked the Sky Chariot Dragon King separately, "Father, is the immortal behind Wu Yu really that powerful?"

The Sky Chariot Dragon King scoffed and said, "Not necessarily true. In fact, we don't even know if he really exists."

"Then why did you...."

"I'm saying it for Sky Will. He has alway been more skeptical. Furthermore, our mystical dragon tribe is huge. With the Nine Great Dragon Emperors and so many revered dragons, why would we have to be afraid of an immortal?"

"So what you are saying is?"

"Your opponent isn't Wu Yu. Just focus on getting first. In that way, I won't be that embarrassed."

"Wu Hao and the rest humiliated you?"

"It's Wu Yu's performance that put me to shame!" the Sky Chariot Dragon King said with a vicious glare.

The Tian Ming Dragon Lord understood and said, "I will speak to Lin Xiaoting privately to get him to strike more ruthlessly. As for me, I will definitely be first. Other than first place, nothing else matters to me."

"It's great that you understand. You have waited 9,000 years for this day!"

The Tian Ming Dragon Lord naturally understood the gravity of the situation.

If he had obtained the rights to cultivate 10,000 years in the Tower of Dragon's Dawn 9,000 years ago, he would have 1,000 left right now. With 10,000 years in the Tower of Dragon's Dawn, his cultivation level would not just be where it was today!

"9,000 years! First place is my only option...."

The eyes of the Tian Ming Dragon Lord burned with passion and fervor.

Five days passed by in a jiffy. For the four of them, it was like catching a breath.

The moment that everyone anticipated had finally arrived!

On the Dragon Emperor's Supreme Battlefield, not a single mystical dragon had left. News of the top four and the rankings on the Giant Purgatory Pillar had spread throughout the Sky Heart tribe. Wu Yu's name was now known by everyone.

Therefore, those dragon kings and dragon lords that hadn't show up previously rushed over from afar to witness the crowning of the champion.

There were even guests from the other eight tribes!

After all, this was a grand affair for the Sky Heart tribe!

For those who had just arrived, they were obviously discussing who the Primordial Immortal Empire's Wu Yu was.

Over the past few days, many people visited the Primordial Immortal Empire to exchange words with Wu Yu.

Even Wu Jun became a popular person in these days.

The day of the finals had finally arrived!

The Dragon Emperor's Supreme Battlefield was filled with excitement and a raucous crowd.

The Sky Will Empire, the Sky Shadow Empire, and the Sky Chariot Empire vaguely formed an opposing stand to the Primordial Immortal Empire opposite them. Although the three empires were especially powerful, the Primordial Immortal Empire wasn't completely pinned to the ground without any ability to put up any resistance. This was because Wu Yu was around.

Right now, the Sky Will Dragon King announced, "The finals of the Dragon Emperor's Trial will begin right now!

"Can I have everyone pay attention to the top four names on the Giant Purgatory Pillar. For the first round of finals, second placed Tian Ming from the Sky Chariot Empire will be facing third placed Tian Zi from the Sky Shadow Empire. The fourth placed Lin Xiaoting from the Sky Will Empire will face the first placed Wu Yu from the Primordial Immortal Empire."

When Wu Yu's name was announced, it drew a clamor.

"After the first battle, the champions will be determined between the two victors and the losers will fight for third place!"

Everyone knew about these rules.

As it would start soon, the crowd got even more excited.

Although they were all dragon kings and dragon lords, the competition between the younger generation was still intriguing to them.

"Now, the second placed Tian Ming from the Sky Chariot Empire will face the third placed Tian Zi from the Sky Shadow Empire!"

When their names were recited, the Tian Ming Dragon Lord and Tian Zi leaped into the sky. The Primordial Divine Dragon had a majestic dominance and exceptional poise. As for the Purple Skies Empyrean Dragon, she looked more gentle and was especially adorable and cute.

Both of them stood opposite on the Dragon Emperor's Supreme Battlefield.

"You may begin," shouted the Sky Will Dragon King.

Tian Ming coughed once before saying, "Zi Er, I hope you are ready. I won't show any mercy. This battle is too important to me."

Before the public eye, Tian Zi smiled shyly and said, "Big Brother Tian Ming, I understand. You should be aware of my intentions."

Was this a battle or a flirting show?

The crowd could only laugh. Everyone knew Tian Zi wanted to marry the Tian Ming Dragon Lord dearly.

Just as expected, before Tian Ming made his move, Tian Zi announced, "I've sparred with Big Brother Tian Ming countless times. He's at the Immortal Lord Realm, while I'm still a 9-xuan immortal. I have lost every single match against him and I couldn't put up much resistance. For the battle today, I'll admit my defeat. There's no need to go through the battle. I will save my energy to deal with the one fighting for third place."

As she spoke, she glanced at Wu Yu from the Primordial Immortal Empire. She had pinned all her hatred onto Wu Yu. Moreover, Wu Yu had shamed her in the Dragon Emperor's Purgatory, and the memories had never left her mind.

This was something she had thought of from the beginning and had received approval from the Sky Shadow Dragon Queen. She was indeed not a match for Tian Ming. Therefore, battling him was pointless. Instead of getting exhausted and sustaining injuries, it was safer for her to crush Wu Yu in her peak form.

The crowd wasn't looking forward to this battle at all. They were the golden couple that many mystical dragons had assumed for this generation. Even if they fought, they wouldn't use their full strength. There wouldn't be any uncertainty to the outcome either.

Therefore, the Sky Will Dragon King announced, "I accept your defeat. Therefore, this battle is over and the victor is Tian Ming. Tian Zi will participate in the battle for third place in five days."

"In that case, Wu Yu will be facing Lin Xiaoting and Tian Zi consecutively. Both of them are probably nursing a deep grudge. If Wu Yu doesn't concede defeat directly, it might take a bad turn."

"Yeah. The limelight on the trio was snatched by Wu Yu."

"Moreover, Tian Zi seems to abhor Wu Yu. I wonder if they encountered each other in the Dragon Emperor's Purgatory."

"The next match will be exciting. Lin Xiaoting versus Wu Yu. We can have a good look at the real level Wu Yu is at."

Tian Zi admitting defeat directly wasn't out of Wu Yu's expectations. He didn't really care. He just had to defeat Lin Xiaoting first and then Tian Ming in the final battle to get his hands on the Floating Dreams Sword.

Because of that voice and that existence, he wouldn't give up the fight to be the champion even if he died.

At this moment, the Sky Will Dragon King announced, "Coming up next, fourth placed Lin Xiaoting from the Sky Will Empire will face Wu Yu from the Primordial Immortal Empire!"

Perhaps there was historical meaning because Wu Yu came from an empire beyond the Three Great Empires. With someone breaking the monopoly of the Three Great Empires, there were many who were cheering for Wu Yu.

However, his opponent was the adopted son that the Sky Will Dragon King had raised from young.

"Father, I'll definitely bring glory to you," said Lin Xiaoting solemnly. The Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon that had nine-colored lightning dancing around him had a grandiose demeanor as he landed on the Dragon Emperor's Supreme Battlefield. As for his opponent, Wu Yu, he seemed unusually insignificant.

"Big Brother Lin! Defeat him!" From afar, Xue Bingyi from the Sky Snow Empire had led a group of girls from the Sky Snow Empire to cheer for Lin Xiaoting.

She naturally hated Wu Yu.

Wu Yu stood up and shouldered the hopes of Wu Jun and the rest. However, he wasn't pumped up like Lin Xiaoting. Rather, he appeared cold and aloof.

At this moment, he jumped up high in his immortal form and rushed onto the Dragon Emperor's Supreme Battlefield. When he landed, the entire battlefield was engulfed in blistering, nine-colored lightning, creating a huge lightning city! It was as though any living creature that entered it would be reduced to ashes by the lightning. As for the Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon, he hovered freely above the lightning city.

The Sky Will Dragon King had yet to announce the beginning of the battle.

Lin Xiaoting smirked and said, “Wu Yu! Your doom is here. You managed to get away last time. Let's see where you escape to this time!"

Wu Yu landed before him and looked down on him from a greater height.

He said nonchalantly, "This time, you will be the one who will be thinking of escaping."

He was unusually quick and appeared in front of Lin Xiaoting in a split second.

At this moment, millions of mystical dragons, dragon kings, and dragon lords were holding their breaths while watching.

The Sky Will Dragon King finally announced the start of the battle.

"Destruction!" The Mystical Palace Thunder Dragon raised the nine-colored lightning city towards Wu Yu immediately! He wanted to trap Wu Yu in it!

"Nine-colored Thunder Confinement!"

He released his terrifying Natural Mystique instantly. Wu Yu's immortal body looked pitifully small in this place.

However, to Wu Yu, this farce wouldn't even trouble him.
