The dagger was stained with blood as it was pulled out of the man’s body. As fresh blood gushed out, the man fell into a pool of his own blood. His body was convulsing non-stop.

However, Zhan Hong did not intend to stop there. He waved the short dagger in his hand again and stabbed toward the yellow-robed man’s faintly heaving chest.

At the same time, he felt a flash in front of his eyes. An invisible force surged over, but the dagger that was stabbed out could no longer move forward even half an inch.

In the next moment, a middle-aged man appeared between the two like a ghost.

“The match is over. Zhan Clan wins!” The person who came was the referee of this match. He first glanced at Zhan Hong who was about to kill his opponent before announcing the result of the match. There was a certain amount of blame in his gaze.

Zhan Hong was a little displeased with the referee’s interference, but since the rules of the Grand Sect Competition were laid out, he could not say anything. He could only reluctantly put away his dagger.

Then, his eyes moved as if he had sensed something. He turned his head to look at the room above the grandstand. A moment later, he frowned, then turned around and left the venue without looking back.

“His perception is pretty good.”

In the room, Gu Xi raised his eyebrows. He was surprised that Zhan Hong could sense his spying from such a distance.

“I didn’t expect the Zhan CLan to be willing to send someone like Zhan Hong. It seems that they are determined to win this competition.”

Tang Conglin had also noticed the competition in Zhan Hong’s arena. He frowned, apparently surprised by Zhan Hong’s appearance.

“Zhan Hong’s strength is not ordinary, but this time, we are even more determined to win.”

Tong Shan chuckled, glancing at Gu Xi from the corner of his eye.

“Hahahaha, that’s true. If we are afraid of a mere Zhan family, our myriad treasures pavilion would rather not participate in this sect competition, let alone win the championship.”

Tang Conglin laughed.

While the two were talking, the battles in the arenas below had ended one by one. The results of the competition were soon announced.

Just as Tong Shan had said, in the first round of the competition alone, there were several sects with average overall strength who had lost regretfully due to bad luck. They had missed the chance to participate in this competition.

Soon, the second round of the competition began.

Gu Xi and the others swept through the arenas one by one. Soon, they found Qing Zhu on one of the arenas in the corner.

“Whether we can continue depends on this battle.” Looking down at Qing Zhu’s graceful figure, Tang Conglin could not help but feel nervous.

He was not the only one. It could be said that everyone in the room, except for Gu Xi and Little Nine, was a little nervous. Even Tong Shan, who knew Qing Zhu’s strength was extraordinary, felt the same.

After all, their opponent was the Ten Thousand Demons Valley, and moreover, it was the once-in-a-century genius disciple of the valley, Zhou Nan. If they were slightly careless, they might lose the match!

Dressed in green, Qing Zhu had peerlessly beautiful face and a proud figure. Even though the location of the match was in the corner of the arena, the moment she entered the arena, she received the attention of the majority of the people in the stands.

Opposite her was a somewhat thin man.

Zhou Nan was dressed in a dark green long robe and had an ordinary appearance. He was also very surprised that his opponent was actually a woman.

“Can we begin?” Qing Zhu looked at the referee at the edge of the arena and asked faintly.

The referee was not in a hurry to answer. Instead, he turned his head to look at Zhou Nan on the other side. Seeing that the latter did not object, he immediately gave the order to start the competition.

The moment his voice fell, the referee’s figure disappeared without a trace.

“Miss, there’s no need to be so anxious. It’s our fate to be able to stand face-to-face in this arena. Why don’t we get to know each other first before making a decision?”

Zhou Nan chuckled. He was not in a hurry to make a move.

“Then will you admit defeat?” Qing Zhu tilted her head and asked with a serious expression.

Zhou Nan was slightly stunned when he heard this. Clearly, he did not expect that Qing Zhu would actually ask such an unanswerable question. He shook his head after he recovered his senses.

Although the opposite party was a beautiful woman, the Ten Thousand Demon Valley had sent him to successfully break out of the encirclement during the qualifier competition. They did not send him here to admit defeat.

With his current talent and achievements, even if he really admitted defeat on a whim, he would not be expelled from the sect. However, he would definitely be punished severely.

“Since you don’t admit defeat, why are you wasting your breath on me?” Qing Zhu spoke again, and her tone instantly changed as if she had become a different person.

Hearing this, Zhou Nan was stunned again.

At the same time, with a tap of Qing Zhu’s toes, her whole body shot out like an arrow, directly rushing toward Zhou Nan’s position.

“Damn it!” When Zhou Nan came back to his senses, he could not help but curse angrily.

The momentary absent-mindedness had already caused him to miss the opportunity.

Cursing was one thing, but Zhou Nan was indeed worthy of being a rare genius disciple of the Ten Thousand Demons Valley. Faced with Qing Zhu’s rapid approach, he did not show the slightest bit of panic, and the spiritual energy in his body began to circulate rapidly. A mighty pressure suddenly burst out and rushed forward with a whistling sound as he tried to slow down Qing Zhu’s approach.

However, what he did not expect was that the whistling spiritual power pressure actually did not have the slightest effect on the approaching speed of Qing Zhu.

“How could it be…” Zhou Nan’s eyes widened, his heart was filled with shock.

One had to know that he had already stepped into the Saint stage. Although he had only broken through not long ago, that was still the true pressure of a Saint stage ealm cultivator!

Moreover, he did not hold back at all. How could he not have any effect at all!?

Just as he was surprised, Qing Zhu’s figure had already approached him.

A faint green spiritual power wrapped around her slender hand. Qing Zhu extended a seemingly light palm forward and landed on Zhou Nan’s chest.

In the next moment, Zhou Nan’s pupils suddenly contracted and a dazzling light burst out from his chest. He immediately felt a strong force coming from it and his entire body flew out uncontrollably. He almost lost his footing and fell off the stage.

If he fell off the stage, then he would be judged as a loser.

“A spirit tool, huh…” Looking at Zhou Nan, who seemed to be fine, Qing Zhu’s black brows furrowed slightly.

Although she had not used her full strength in that palm strike just now, with her current cultivation realm, one palm strike was enough to easily finish off a Saint stage cultivator. Moreover, in that blinding light, she could clearly sense the aura of a spirit tool.

It was obvious that Zhou Nan had a high-level defensive spirit tool, which allowed him to forcefully withstand the attack. Otherwise, he would have long fallen to the ground.
