Consequently, his influence and ability to command would be significantly diminished going forward.>That's why he could only choose the lesser of two evils, sacrificing his reputation among the people..."Really You won't cheat me, will you"

For some reason, Xuanyuan Zhantian always had a bad feeling about something.

"It's impossible! This is truly a delicacy. Just one bite and you'll know its flavor, it definitely satisfies all three of your requirements."

Then I'll try it!

Xuan Yuan Zhan Tian said, taking the century egg and biting into it. His expression shifted, his old face becoming incredibly strange.

"You little brat, you tricked me! What is this It's disgusting, like eating crap!"

"Haha, isn't that what you said Never had it before, one time is unforgettable, and it's very unique."

Ye Bufan laughed so hard he was doubled over. He had seen videos of foreigners eating century eggs before and thought they were exaggerating, but now after watching Xuanyuan Zhantian, he knew it was truly a reflection of life.

"Enjoy it slowly, you'll grow to love this stuff!"

He finished speaking and called for everyone to set off, leaving the station and heading towards the royal training ground.

The Royal Arena was packed with people at this moment. Today was the final day of the competition, and the champion of this Genius Demon War would be crowned soon. Countless people had come here to watch the finals.

Ye Bufan walked all the way, like the stars holding the moon, countless people came forward to greet him warmly, expressing their admiration.

In contrast, Bai Li Xingkong's face on the viewing stand turned as dark as could be. By the last day of the competition, their Tiansheng Prefecture had been completely eliminated from the finals.

If that were all, it would be bad enough. But the prince was kidnapped twice in public and extorted both times, only to have his captors escape on both occasions. There's no way he could feel good about any of this.

But no matter how bad his mood was, the program had to go on, and the competition was still hosted by him.

Only two matches remain. Leng Qingqiu and Hua Ruyu walk onto the stage together to compete for third place, while the championship match between Wuchin and Ye Bufan will be held last.

Although they lost the previous game, Leng Qingqiu's popularity is still soaring. As soon as she took the stage, cheers erupted from the audience.

"Cold Fairy, I never expected we'd meet here."

After a night of rest, Hua Ru Yu had shaken off yesterday's defeat. She was smiling brightly once again, just as beautiful and alluring as ever.

"Cut the crap, surrender or fight!"

Leng Qingqiu was cold and aloof towards everyone except Ye Bufan. Standing there, she was like a drawn sword, making people afraid to approach her.

"You're so heartless, a cold woman like this is not appealing to men."

Hua Ru Yu said this, flipping her wrist, a three-foot green blade appearing in the center of her palm.

Yesterday, his slender sword was already ruined in the hands of Wangchen. That sword also seemed quite extraordinary.

"I've heard for a long time that Fairy Hanjian has been recognized by the Sword Tomb and has comprehended the Sword Heart. Today, I want to see just how this Sword Heart compares to my sword intent."

As he spoke, he slowly drew his sword from its scabbard. The blade sang softly in his hand, a white light rippling along its length like water.

Although the crowd was far from the platform, they could still feel the overwhelming sword intent.

"Ripples flow, phoenix cries with golden sound! He has actually comprehended sword intent!"

Someone in the audience gasped, and others looked on in amazement.

The sword is said to be the leader of a hundred weapons. Learning the sword is easy, but wanting to practice it to the extreme is extremely difficult. Many people cannot touch the sword's intent throughout their lives.

And the flowers before one's eyes, like jade, not only comprehended sword intent but had also reached a state of great completion.

None expected this androgynous individual to be so powerful. The core disciples of the Nine Star Sect are indeed formidable.

At the same time, many people shook their heads and sighed for him secretly. In the last match, he encountered an even more formidable opponent, Wuchin. With a single melody, he defeated him, not giving him any chance to display his swordsmanship.

"This guy is so powerful, can Fairy Cold Sword even handle him"

Feeling the pressure emanating from Hua Ru Yu's sword, many people's hearts immediately pounded.

Although it had long been heard that the Fairy Han Jian had received the recognition of the Sword Tomb and comprehended the Sword Heart, no one had ever seen her, nor did they know how powerful the Sword Heart truly was.

In the previous few matches, due to a large gap in strength, Leng Qingqiu didn't even have the opportunity to display her true potential.

"Cold Fairy, unsheathe your sword!"

As the core disciple of the Huajiang School, although he lost a match, he still had enough confidence.

"As you wish, today you shall see what true sword heart is!"

Upon finishing his words, Leng Qingqiu swiftly drew his sword, and a chilling aura emanated from it.

At this moment, her entire demeanor had changed. She seemed to have become one with the sword in her hand. Her aura soared into the sky, and the sharp sword energy felt like it could tear apart the heavens.

Buzz buzz buzz…

Below the stands, countless cultivators' swords hummed, as if paying homage to the powerful.

"Strike with your heart, guide with your intent, wherever you go, every move is a sword strike!"

Very good, truly very good. At such a young age to be able to comprehend this level of artistry, in swordsmanship, he is already unrivaled among his peers.

Little one, you've really got lucky in love. If that little girl had gone all out against you yesterday, the outcome would have been anyone's guess.

Xuan Yuan Zhan Tian shook his head and nodded, frequently commenting.

Ye Bufan deeply agreed. With the strength Cold Qingqiu had displayed, he was completely capable of fighting across ranks. Ye Bufan himself didn't have a guaranteed victory.

Everyone stood by, each observing and commenting, while the one under the most pressure at that moment was Hua Ru Yu standing on the stage.

The moment Leng Qingqiu drew his sword, the sword intent he had painstakingly gathered instantly crumbled and shattered, unable to coalesce even a sliver.

At this moment, the flower's face was as pale as jade, her complexion ghastly. Her legs trembled uncontrollably, and her entire body was crushed under an overwhelming pressure. Facing him, she couldn't even muster the courage to draw her sword.

"This is the sword intent overwhelming!"

The flowers on the viewing platform seemed to change their expressions as well. Although neither of them had made a move yet, he knew his disciple was defeated.

In terms of swordsmanship, there is a huge difference. Jianxin's understanding of the sword intent completely surpasses that of others.

"I surrender!"

As jade flowers are, so she was straightforward. She drew her sword back into its sheath with a snap.

"This..."

Another wave of astonishment swept through the crowd. Some powerful individuals could grasp the underlying meaning, while ordinary spectators were left utterly bewildered.

Both of them drew their swords, and without even a fight, one side surrendered.

But no matter what, it's a good thing that Han Jianxian won, and soon cheers erupted!

The referee announced the result, and Leng Qingqiu turned to look at Elder Li Miaozhen: "I have fulfilled my promise to the sect!"

After saying that, he turned and jumped off the platform.

"This..."

Li Miaozhen at this moment didn't know whether to be happy or angry, and for a time didn't know what to say.

Logically speaking, it's a good achievement for a disciple of a sect to come in third place, and they should be happy.

Now that Leng Qingqiu has fulfilled her previous promise, it means she's going to follow Ye Bufan next. How could she not be happy about this

"Okay, the first game is over, now the second one begins!"

Bai Li Xing Kong stood up to help ease the awkwardness, and directly announced that the next game was about to begin.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Ye Bufan and Wang Chen stepped onto the stage together.ngly imbued with a life of its own as it settled into his palm."Remember, you died by the Lingyun Sword Technique!"After he finished speaking, his wrist flipped, and the long sword in his hand slashed...
