Inside the manor, a middle-aged man's back was facing the scenery outside the window. He was in high spirits, and at the same time, he was planning his own plans in his heart.
"Father, when will the competition begin?" A light voice sounded. A slim woman hugged the middle-aged man's bear waist behind her and said coquettishly.
"Haha, is my Qiao'er in such a hurry to get married?" The middle-aged man dotingly stroked the woman's hair, his eyes filled with affection.
"Humph! Father, you're so bad!" When Qiao'er heard the middle-aged man tease her, she turned around and pretended to be angry. She was extremely cute. In fact, ever since Emperor Demon God accidentally broke into her room that day, Qiao'er would occasionally think of that interesting fellow.
"I hope she can really participate, but I still have to consider it when the time comes." The little rabbit in Qiao'er's heart, Peng Peng, jumped as a wisp of crimson flushed on her cheeks.
The middle-aged man looked at Qiao'er's shy appearance, his face showing no joy or sorrow.
The rules of the tournament were very simple. A one-on-one tournament was held in the form of lots, until the final victor was found, regardless of life or death during the battle! Battles can be fought in a variety of ways, including concealed weapons, formations, and so on.
"Interesting." Kong Yun said silently. Normally, there would be referees to ensure the safety of the participants in the competition. Moreover, concealed weapons and other items that violated the martial artist's Dao Heart were not allowed to be brought on the stage. However, there was no restriction on the recruitment of martial artists. It could be said that the competition was dangerous but it was also full of attention.
Kong Yun wasn't worried about Emperor Demon God's safety. Ever since Emperor Demon God's madness was discovered, even Kong Yun himself had to go all out to defeat God Demon God.
Qiao'er's beauty and identity attracted countless wandering cultivators to Ming City just to see Qiao'er's beautiful face.
"Next, Emperor Demon God." The butler of the City Lord's Mansion called out the name of the Emperor Demon God, signaling for the Emperor Demon God to draw lots. The Emperor Demon God glanced at Kong Yun and came to the butler with an extremely excited expression.
"Number 139." The butler didn't even look at the Emperor Demon God and directly stuffed the number that the Emperor Demon God had dialed into his hand.
According to the rules, Emperor Demon God's opponent should be the one who drew number 138, but no one had drawn this number yet.
"Look, they're from the Heaven-defying Clan." When the drawing of lots was going on, someone pointed at the sky and shouted. Everyone looked up and saw a middle-aged man riding his sword and landing on the seat behind the arena.
Afterwards, a powerful aura rushed over from within the manor and landed in front of this heaven-defying clan's man.
"Ming Cheng-Shen Tianxiao respectfully awaits the Heaven-defying Envoy." From the people who spoke, Kong Yun knew that the person who came out of the mansion was the City Lord of Ming City, Shen Tianxiao. At the same time, Kong Yun had a new assessment of the strength of the Heaven-defying Clan. Even with Shen Tianxiao's noble status, he had to be so respectful when he saw an envoy from the Heaven-defying Clan.
The messenger of the Heaven-defying Clan only nodded his head, extremely proud, and then sat on his seat.
"We can begin now." The messenger of the Heaven-defying Clan took a sip of the tea in his hand and said faintly. His gaze swept past the many martial artists who were about to participate in the competition, and the corner of his mouth curled into a smile.
Kong Yun stood in the middle of the crowd, his soul force surging to probe the strength of the Heaven-defying Clan's messenger. However, just as he touched his body, Kong Yun felt as if his soul had been stabbed by ten thousand needles and threads. He unconsciously trembled.
The Heaven-defying Clan's experts gathered and looked in the direction of their soul force. They happened to be staring straight at Kong Yun. However, to Kong Yun's surprise, this Heaven-defying Race expert did not get angry. Instead, a smile appeared on his lips.
"Strange. Could it be that he knows me?" Kong Yun was puzzled. The pain from his soul force continued.
Kong Yun didn't know if there was a shady scene in the lottery, but Emperor Demon God's opponent, Number 138, had finally appeared. It was just an ordinary rogue cultivator in the middle stage of Undying Immortal, and he didn't pose any threat to Emperor Demon God.
Due to the large number of people competing in the competition, the manor had specially built five arenas to compete at the same time. Before the tournament officially began, Shen Tianxiao specially introduced the many elders in his mansion to everyone. Although his words were polite, everyone knew that he was demonstrating to everyone, trying to tell everyone not to cause trouble.
"I declare that the competition will begin." The one who spoke was the Great Elder in the manor. Compared to Shen Tianxiao, the Great Elder looked much older.
The first battle was between two rogue cultivators at the early Undying Immortal Stage. One of them was the same as Kong Yun, the Metal Laws. However, in his hands, the power of the Metal Laws was not even one tenth of Kong Yun's when he was in the same realm.
His opponent was using the Laws of Earth. The Laws of Earth were extremely rare. They were mainly heavy and their defenses were extremely strong. In the first match, the Laws of Earth had steadily suppressed the Laws of Metal until they finally won.
Although Kong Yun did not register, he had been wandering around the crowd under the five arenas to observe the characteristics of these martial artists. It could be considered as helping the Emperor Demon God collect some information.
"You have to pay attention to that kid who plays with fire in the third arena." Kong Yun walked to the Emperor Demon God's side and twisted his elbow. He reminded him in a low voice. The Emperor Demon God looked in the direction Kong Yun had mentioned. A man on the stage kept changing the square seals with both his hands. Balls of flames were swimming on the arena. His fire control skills could be said to be at their peak!
"Right now, he's just showing off his fire control technique. I guess he must have a very powerful Spiritual Fire in his body." Kong Yun thought to himself.
Emperor Demon God nodded heavily, his expression somewhat solemn.
"Boss, boss." Within the crowd, a person squeezed through the crowd to find Kong Yun's side. The corner of his short mouth was sharp. It was precisely the mouse Kong Yun had asked to go out to gather information.
"So fast?" Kong Yun asked in surprise. It seemed that the name he had given him was indeed correct.
"Hehe, boss, although my strength isn't that good, I still have quite a few friends everywhere." Rat was arrogant, as if he was soliciting credit. He could tell that Kong Yun was not an ordinary person, otherwise, he wouldn't have been so generous when he saved him back then.
"Young Pauper, tell me what you've heard." Kong Yun smiled and asked.
The mouse lay beside Kong Yun's ear and told him everything he had seen and heard recently. After listening to all the reports from the mouse, Kong Yun's expression became very serious. Then, he looked at Shen Tianxiao, who was chatting with the Heaven-defying Race messenger behind the arena.
Shaking his head, Kong Yun calmed himself down. The top priority was to win the match first.
It was Emperor Demon God's turn to go on stage. His opponent was a rogue cultivator who possessed the Laws of Wood. He was nicknamed Brothel.
"This name is quite tempting." Kong Yun covered his mouth and laughed. He saw the two of them ascend the arena.
"The competition will begin. The Emperor Demon God will fight against the brothel!"
As the elders in the manor finished speaking, the brothel took the lead in climbing onto the arena. Its eyes stared straight at Qiao'er, who was sitting beside Shen Tianxiao behind the arena. It was filled with greed.
"Whoosh!" Everyone stirred up a commotion and hissed mockingly. Although this brothel was slightly famous in Ming City, it was still far inferior to those proud children of heaven.
The Emperor Demon God sensed the way the brothel looked at Qiao'er. A ball of flame was burning in his chest, and he unconsciously released the power of Laws within his body. The monstrous aura almost sent the brothel flying.
"Get off the stage, I'll spare your life." The brothel said arrogantly and threw a charming glance in Qiao'er's direction, causing Qiao'er to feel a burst of nausea.
Seeing this, Kong Yun shook his head with a bitter smile. This brothel could be considered a miracle blooming in the mortal world!
"Die!" The Emperor Demon God had already made up his mind to kill the brothel. He would never allow anyone to insult Qiao'er at any level. Even if it was just a thought in his heart, it wouldn't do!
One after another, the Emperor Demon God launched an unreserved offensive, but the brothel, which was also at the middle stage of the Undying Immortal Stage, did not fear it and welcomed the Emperor Demon God.
"Boom!" The first collision between the two caused a cloud of dust to rise up on the arena. Then, everyone saw a figure flying backwards from the smoke and dust until it fell to the ground and spat out blood.
The person who fell was the brothel. At this moment, his eyes were filled with unwillingness. There was a trace of malice in his gaze as he looked at the Emperor Demon God.
Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw this scene. It was also the middle stage of the Undying Immortal Stage. The Emperor Demon God was actually able to kill the brothel in one move! However, Kong Yun wasn't surprised by this scene. He had been training with the Emperor Demon God these past few days. It could be said that the Emperor Demon God had already used his body and the power of Laws to the extreme!
From this moment on, the name of the Emperor Demon God began to spread among the crowd. Many people who participated in the tournament also began to pay attention to the existence of the Emperor Demon God.
However, the Emperor Demon God did not regret doing so. It just so happened that it would be better for some of the younger generation to admit defeat when facing him, so as to save trouble.
The referee announced the victory of the Emperor Demon God. The Emperor Demon God turned around and looked at Qiao'er. The yearning in his eyes was very pure, without any impurities.
When Qiao'er saw the Emperor Demon God looking at her, she lowered her head in embarrassment, her face flushed red. Seeing this scene, Shen Tianxiao also looked at the Emperor Demon God with a smile.
"Let's go." After the Emperor Demon God jumped off the arena, he landed beside Kong Yun and dragged Kong Yun away. After all, there were too many people fighting on the first day, and the next match would be tomorrow.
Kong Yun wasn't in a hurry either. In any case, he had already observed quite a few famous experts during this period. It was time for him to go back and explain to the Emperor Demon God how to deal with them.
Kong Yun and Emperor Demon God brought the mouse back to their residence. After Kong Yun set up a small formation, the three of them sat on the ground.
"There are two geniuses who have been famous for a long time in Ming City. They will also be your biggest opponents in this competition. I'm sure you've heard of them." Kong Yun said indifferently.
The Emperor Demon God nodded."One Situ Kun and the other should be called Qin Qingyun. Both of them are experts who have been immersed in the late Undying Immortal Realm for many years."
Kong Yun smiled happily. It seemed that the Emperor Demon God had not completely lost his mind because of Qiao'er.
"Rat, you can continue." Kong Yun looked at the mouse beside him. The mouse knew more about Ming City than he and the Emperor Demon God did.
"Hehe, if you want to say that Situ Kun and Qin Qingyun are old opponents, There were a few large clans in Ming City, The Situ Clan and the Qin Clan had always been incompatible with each other. In the previous battle between the younger generations of several great clans, Qin Qingyun narrowly defeated Situ Kun. Ever since then, everyone had been telling him that Situ Kun was inferior to Qin Qingyun. Actually, it was very difficult to distinguish between the two of them in a life-and-death battle ... "The mouse introduced Situ Kun and Qin Qingyun to the Emperor Demon God one by one.
