c987: 780: Cutting Down the Disciple

Self-preservation, collaboration, surprise attacks...

Even though the arena’s mixed battles are straightforward and brutal, one can clearly assess the combat skills of those participating!

With just one confrontation, several individuals are wounded in the chaos, activating a talisman to retreat from the competition space.

Within the time of an incense stick, nearly thirty percent of participants are eliminated, and the elimination rate gradually slows down afterward.

"Elite fighters from top sect powerhouses generally have some level of strength."

Su Yuan observed, then his gaze fell on a Fire God Alliance master.

This person was encased in a Fiery Fire Cover, like a scorching sun, with the mere leftover impact of the blazing sun continually causing diminishing burning damage in the surrounding area.

Others couldn’t get close, not to mention that their attacks were melted by the sun’s remnants and posed no threat.

"Epic Skill of the Transformation Realm, with Star Power Talent reaching B+, moreover possessing a formidable fire element." Su Yuan nodded slightly, making a judgment after several glances.

"This should be the strongest person in the field, almost able to rank around 70 on the Great Flame’s Radiant Moon List.

The others, from Red Sun Sect, Thunder Fire Pavilion, and even elite members from other forces, barely have listing capabilities.

Additionally, Teng Jinghua has indeed made considerable progress..."

Su Yuan’s gaze fell on Teng Jinghua, who wielded an Ice Cold Long Sword, with more agile control over Ice Star Power, making notable progress in close combat strength.

Moreover, in the high-pressure and chaotic environment, she was extremely calm, having already defeated 3 people in this short time, truly outstanding.

It’s worth noting that those who come here at the Radiant Moon Level think, more or less, that they have some abilities.

Regardless of whether it’s the Fierce Star Selection or the Fierce Moon Selection, the participants aren’t necessarily battling to the death, as the Twelve Fierce Moons are limited in number.

Even if unable to successfully join the Twelve Fierce Moons, it’s an opportunity to show off one’s strength to various forces on the four high platforms.

Securing a good position and treatment within various forces is what more of the Radiant Moon-level masters need.

"Previously, he already had rankable strength on the Radiant Moon List; now, who knows what his limit is."

Su Yuan chuckled, looking at Luo Bingtong beside him.

"Just see how far you’ve trained him."

Luo Bingtong nodded slightly in acknowledgment: "Should be... doable."

"Puchi puchi!" Ruan Ruan, seemingly aware of the situation, transformed a small hand and raised a thumb.

While Su Yuan was observing the masters in the competition space, Cao Yuanzheng and the others on the northern platform were doing the same.

Zhou Yi’s expression was slightly tense: "Leader Cao, your Meng Zhaojun is increasingly impressive; this strength has made a qualitative leap compared to two years ago."

Cao Yuanzheng smiled contentedly: "While Elder Meng Zhaojun is a rising star, his insight is astonishing. Now in my Fire God Alliance, he scarcely meets a match."

Lin Yong beside them spoke gravely: "No wonder your Fire God Alliance only sent him alone; Leader Cao is indeed very confident."

Cao Yuanzheng stroked his beard and laughed courteously: "Meeting opponents from your two sects is uncertain, as Yin Yang Sect’s Xu Xiuyu and Thunder Fire Pavilion’s Bai Jianhang are famous masters in the Western Desert."

Lin Yong recalled something and asked: "Speaking of which, is Elder Jiang Yang from your sect not competing? Having trained the Yin Yang Cycle to the Transformation Realm should make him comparable to Xu Xiuyu, right?"

Zhou Yi’s expression instantly turned somber and he replied coldly: "Elder Jiang is unwell and did not come today."

"Unwell..." Lin Yong looked towards the Yin Yang Sect members not far away, pondering, "Moreover, ’Bomber’ Ning Su is also nowhere to be seen; after this mixed battle, the Twelve Fierce Moons have to accept challenges."

Upon hearing Lin Yong, Zhou Yi’s expression darkened further, he was about to speak when Cao Yuanzheng laughed heartily.

"There’s no need to talk much about our four sects’ masters, let’s focus more on newly emerged masters from other forces... that one wielding the Red Tassel Fire Gun seems to be from Shen Family Manor?"

A Radiant Moon master of the Fire God Alliance behind Cao Yuanzheng replied: "Reporting to the Alliance Leader, that is the fourth grandson of the manor holder of Shen Family Manor, named Shen Tong."

Cao Yuanzheng nodded slightly: "Not bad, Shen Family Manor has promising successors..."

As Cao Yuanzheng shifted the topic, Lin Yong thought about it but didn’t say more.

Lin Yong turned to look at the competition space, swiftly focusing on a tall female using a Fiery Fire Saber.

"Saber skill bold, aggressive like fire, defeating 4 people in moments, what is her background?"

The Radiant Moon master of the Fire God Alliance replied: "Seems to be from Huo Luo Country, reportedly a fugitive."

"Her strength is indeed decent." Cao Yuanzheng nodded, instructing further, "Elder Peng, connect with her post-battle."

"Yes, Alliance Leader."

Lin Yong frowned slightly, having been the one to speak first yet Cao Yuanzheng intervened!

Lin Yong coldly snorted once more and scanned again: "Oh? That one wielding the Ice Greatsword also seems to show no lack of strength, where is she from?"

Trailing behind Lin Yong was previously Dou Lun, who negotiated in Zhao Yue City with Shi Qingyuan regarding the Burning Sun Star Core.

At that moment, Shi Qingyuan took a closer look and immediately had a slight change in expression.

Shi Qingyuan quietly warned: "Master, that’s Teng Jinghua from Qingming Palace, formerly with the Storm Alliance, reputedly strong enough to rival the Fierce Moon."

"A member of Qingming Palace..."

Lin Yong raised his eyebrows, aware the news about Thunder Fire Pavilion exchanging the Star Core for Dou Lun had spread.

Rendering Thunder Fire Pavilion rather aggrieved...

Lin Yong shook his head, muttering dismally, but upon looking up, Zhou Yi across seemed even more displeased...
