The next chapter is even more exciting: Chapter 156 Xiao Xun'er's First Kill, we look forward to your visit.
With a command from the presiding elder, the disciples of the three families were randomly divided into ten areas, and a chaotic battle broke out.
A flurry of magical light, the clash of weapons, the booming of exploding talismans, and the roars and screams of cultivators mingled together.
Those who were less capable turned pale and shouted their surrender before jumping down in a sorry state.
Whether it was a tacit understanding among the three family heads or simply pure luck, it's hard to say.
The six top-tier combatants at the late Foundation Establishment stage were conveniently scattered in different areas, thus avoiding a clash between aces from the very beginning.
As for the strategy of focusing fire on the strongest player, it is naturally not feasible.
Because each late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator is surrounded by several disciples of their own clan.
They may form small defensive formations, creating a solid protective circle.
In one of the areas, Xiao Yan was seen wearing a crimson robe.
The air within three feet of him distorted, surging with a crimson wave of energy.
"Get out of my way!!"
With a roar, he unleashed two ferocious fire pythons, instantly blasting several Lie family cultivators who were trying to surround him off the arena.
His movements were wide and sweeping, each strike carrying the domineering power to incinerate everything, and his speed in clearing the field was astonishing.
However, his gaze would occasionally lock onto Xiao Xun'er's direction, filled with undisguised killing intent.
From the high stands, Xiao Zhenshan saw this and his brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.
The head of the Lie family exclaimed, "Nephew Xiao Yan's 'Crimson Flame True Force' is truly domineering, quite reminiscent of the style of the former head of the Xiao family..."
The head of the Ba family grinned and said, "What a magnificent Heaven-Burning Fire Python! Nephew Xiao Yan's skills are so formidable that few among the younger generation can rival him."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhenshan responded politely, "You flatter me. Lie Junhe's movements are unpredictable, and Bajitian's defense is unparalleled; both are outstanding individuals."
Upon hearing this, the heads of the Leba and Lieba families both nodded in satisfaction.
In another area, the Morinda officinalis stood firmly in one corner, its earthen-yellow spiritual energy as heavy as the earth itself, surrounded by several huge rock shields.
He did not launch aggressive attacks, but instead adopted a defensive strategy, easily deflecting spells coming from all directions.
When a cultivator approaches, the ground beneath their feet suddenly softens and collapses, or splinters of soil emerge.
This forced the opponent into a panic, and he was subsequently swept off the stage by the opponent's follow-up spell.
On the other side of the Liejun River, however, his figure was like a ghostly shadow, elusive and unpredictable.
Each flash leaves behind afterimages, specifically targeting lone opponents.
A poisoned, icy blade, with a cunning and ruthless angle, is used in conjunction with unpredictable movement techniques and binding spells.
Often, the opponent has no time to react before the attack hits a vital spot or cuts off their escape route.
Seeing this, the other disciples of the clan felt a chill in their hearts and surrendered one after another.
Soon, the winners were determined in the six areas with late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.
As expected, all six late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators won.
All eyes were on the remaining four arenas.
In the area where Xiao Xun'er was located, only a few people remained. Then, she revealed some of her strength and cleared the area.
Upon seeing this, a look of surprise flashed across Xiao Zhenshan's eyes.
I never expected Xiao Xun'er to have such strength.
Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Xiao Xun'er advance.
Fortunately, I advanced; I still have a chance to kill Xiao Xun'er on the arena...
With the last cultivator being knocked off the stage in a sorry state, the first round of the chaotic battle came to an end.
Only ten figures remained on the vast training ground.
The Xiao family alone had four members, while the Lie and Ba families each had three.
The presiding elder's gaze swept over the ten people, and he announced in a deep voice:
"The top ten are decided! The second stage, the ranking battle, will determine the ultimate champion!"
Then, a bamboo divination stick container appeared out of thin air, with ten jade sticks floating inside.
With a single incantation from the presiding elder, ten jade tokens transformed into streaks of light, flying precisely towards the ten people on the arena.
Xiao Xun'er reached out and caught the flying jade slip; it felt slightly cool to the touch.
Looking down, I saw a clear "甲壹" (Jia Yi) mark on the signature.
At the same time, not far away, a young cultivator dressed in Xiao family attire also raised the jade slip in his hand, which was also "Jia Yi".
"Xiao Xun'er? Hahaha!" The man was stunned when he saw his opponent, then burst into mocking laughter.
"What luck! I ran into a piece of trash like you in the very first round. You managed to get into the top ten by sheer luck, and you think you deserve to stand here on the same stage as us?"
His name is Xiao Li, and he is considered a staunch supporter of Xiao Yan among the younger generation of the Xiao family.
He usually held Xiao Xun'er in utter contempt.
In his eyes, drawing Xiao Xun'er at this moment was a godsend.
It allows him to advance easily and also humiliate Xiao Yan, this thorn in his side.
Xiao Xun'er's eyes instantly turned cold.
She didn't refute him, but calmly looked up at Xiao Li.
The gaze was so calm that it sent a shiver down Xiao Li's spine. His arrogant laughter abruptly stopped, replaced by annoyance at being offended.
However, at this moment, Xiao Zhenshan made his move.
His face was full of anger as he pointed at Xiao Li from a distance.
An invisible force struck Xiao Li instantly, causing him to stagger backward and turn pale.
"You bastard!"
Xiao Zhenshan's voice was like thunder, resounding throughout the entire venue.
"On the day of the grand competition, how can you spout such arrogant words in front of everyone?!"
If you dare to act recklessly again, you will be punished according to family rules!
Xiao Li was publicly reprimanded by the family head, his face turning pale and then red. He glared at Xiao Xun'er fiercely, but ultimately dared not utter another sound.
"Round One, Xiao Xun'er versus Xiao Li! Step onto the stage!" At this moment, the presiding elder's voice rang out.
The two then leaped onto the central core of the arena, while the other eight retreated to the edge of the arena to watch the fight.
Xiao Li's eyes flashed with a fierce light again, and his mid-Foundation Establishment spiritual power surged forth. He was determined to finish this battle quickly and make this good-for-nothing look bad in front of everyone.
"Take this!" Three sharp golden wind blades instantly condensed in front of Xiao Li, aiming straight for Xiao Xun'er's vital points.
This is his surgical technique, [Golden Light Rending Wind Blade], which is quite powerful.
Off the field, Xiao Yan's lips curled into a cruel smile, as if he could already see Xiao Xun'er's blood splattered on the spot.
However, the moment the three wind blades were unleashed, Xiao Xun'er moved.
She simply slid to the side, and three wind blades whistled past the hem of her clothes.
"What?!" Xiao Li's pupils shrank sharply. How could the other party's movement technique be so strange and swift?
However, before he could react, Xiao Xun'er had already pointed her fingers like a sword and unleashed a crimson fire python.
Its fire python's power was surprisingly comparable to Xiao Yan's fire python.
Xiao Li was terrified and hurriedly mobilized all his spiritual power to try to defend and dodge, but it was too late.
With a soft sound, the crimson fire python easily tore through Xiao Li's protective aura.
Before Xiao Li could even think of surrendering, he felt a chill in his chest, followed by a tearing pain that swept through his entire body.
His condensed magical power instantly dissipated, and his eyes were filled with unbelievable fear.
"You...uh..."
At this moment, the crimson energy had penetrated his body, and the violent fire elemental power instantly raged through his heart meridian.
