After Xiang Nan's tenth peak ended the battle, the other nine peaks also completed the resurrection race.
A total of ten teams from the ten regions were successfully revived, advancing to the third stage, the single-player arena competition.
After Elder Shi Beihong finished his closing speech today, the elimination match was officially over amidst the enthusiastic applause of the audience.
The arena competition would be held in a day, and the two hundred participants would rest for a day.
It was night. Those who knew Xiang Nan, but those who didn't, many people ran over to congratulate him.
Everyone witnessed how Xiang Nan managed to survive step by step. From the initial auditions to the group eliminations, Xiang Nan had not been treated fairly.
But he survived.
Mo Hai and Li Qingchuan were especially happy, because Xiang Nan was from their hometown and came from Wolong Prefecture.
After the banquet had dissipated, Xiang Nan returned to Sun Palace.
He lay calmly on the bed and silently looked at the dome of the palace.
The arena competition was about to arrive, and the next battle would be a tough one!
At that time, the top experts of the twelve sects would use their true strength to compete against each other. At that time, everyone would have no reservations.
"Master, I will use my own strength to prove that the people from my Sun Peak are the strongest!"
Xiang Nan yawned and gradually fell asleep.
After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, he was surrounded by a sudden sense of danger!
Even when a martial artist was asleep, they maintained great vigilance, and their perception of the outside world far surpassed that of ordinary people.
Xiang Nan's vigilance towards killing intent far surpassed that of martial artists of the same realm.
Xiang Nan suddenly opened his eyes. He didn't even have time to think. He immediately grabbed the giant saber and laid it horizontally in front of him.
He felt a wave of killing intent coming from the direction of the door, but he could not see anything, nor could he hear the slightest sound of air-piercing.
But then, a terrifying impact force came from the outside of the giant saber!
Ding!
A crisp sound came from outside the blade. Following that, Xiang Nan felt as if he had been struck by the power of a mountain.
He lay on the bed and quickly retreated. The wooden bed quickly slid backwards. Peng's voice crashed into the wall behind him and the wooden bed was smashed into pieces.
As for Xiang Nan, he leaned heavily against the wall and leaned against a three-meter-diameter pit!
Turning around, he saw that the pit was in the shape of a crack, and there were countless cracks.
Xiang Nan's right hand, which was holding onto the giant saber, trembled slightly. He lowered his head and looked again. The thing that had just struck the giant saber had already landed on the ground.
It was actually a black needle with thin hair!
Without any hesitation, Xiang Nan grabbed the huge saber and chased after him in the direction of the door.
When he rushed out of the room and arrived at the corridor, a black shadow disappeared from the exit of the corridor, which was the exit of Sun Palace.
"Flash Shadow Steps!" Xiang Nan's body turned into an afterimage and instantly rushed out of the Sun Palace.
The speed of that shadow was also astonishing. It was floating lightly in the mountain forest of the distant peak and disappearing again.
Xiang Nan was shocked. It was at least seven to eight miles away from Sun Palace.
"What a fast speed!" Xiang Nan refused to give up. He used his lightning vision and looked into the distance.
There was a long, but very thin scratch of Yuan Qi fluctuations in the air.
Peng! Yuan Qi wings spread out, and Xiang Nan continued to chase after him.
However, when they reached the place where the black shadow of the distant peak disappeared, the shadow disappeared. What was even stranger was that the remaining Yuan Qi fluctuations in the air had disappeared.
It was as if the person who ambushed him had suddenly disappeared from the world.
Xiang Nan's heart was heavy.
What was going on? The Haoran Sect was heavily guarded, and it was impossible for outsiders to sneak in easily.
Even though tens of thousands of outer sect disciples had entered the Haoran Sect during the twelve joint examinations, the Haoran Sect still did not relax its vigilance.
"Could it be" A thought flashed through Xiang Nan's mind. Could it be that the people who ambushed him had always been hiding in the Nature Sect? Or as a spectator, or directly as a contestant?
Hong Bin, Jiang Cheng?
Impossible! Xiang Nan immediately overturned his speculation. Although Hong Bin was strong, he was still far inferior to the person who ambushed him tonight. He was not even on the same level.
However, since he was able to block that person's black needle with his giant saber, it meant that that person's realm would not be ridiculously high. At most, it was within the same range as him, and the difference between the upper and lower realms would not exceed two small realms.
However, this was the most terrifying part! Amongst martial artists of the same realm, was there such a powerful expert?
Xiang Nan looked at the black needle in his hand and couldn't help but gasp.
What kind of hair-like black needle was that? It was simply a strand of hair!
'"Hiss" Xiang Nan's heart grew heavier and heavier.
How strong was this Yuan Qi to nail his saber with a single strand of hair and knock him to that extent?
Right now, it was the twelve joint examinations, and someone had secretly entered the Haoran Sect, specifically targeting him.
In addition, there were three experts who tried to snatch Mu Xueqi away
"Xiang Nan."
Suddenly, a female voice appeared in Xiang Nan's ears.
Xiang Nan turned around and slashed.
"Aiya, you scolded me last time. Are you going to kill me this time?" The man stretched out a finger and pressed it against the blade, making it impossible for Xiang Nan's saber to move at all.
But upon closer inspection, Xiang Nandaqi said, "Is that you? The person who ambushed me just now was also you?"
The one who came was the Heavenly Devil Religion's demonic woman, Dream
Meng Die giggled, "How could I be willing to kill you? It's too late to properly love you."
"Why are you still here?" "Are you courting death? You actually dared to sneak into the outer perimeter of the Nature Sect? You haven't left yet?" Xiang Nan asked in shock.
Sun Peak was the most remote mountain peak. Just now, Xiang Nan had chased after the sneak attacker and had already left the boundaries of the Haoran Sect.
Meng Die giggled and said, "I didn't leave. I'm staying here to be someone you like."
"What time is this? You're still spouting nonsense! Quickly leave!" Xiang Nan shouted.
"You care about me? I knew it." Meng Die smiled excitedly. Then, her expression became serious and she said, "Master called me back. I have to leave now, but this time, I came to see you not just to say goodbye."
As she spoke, Meng Die lowered her voice and said, "I've been staying in Haotian City for a while and found some very strange things and strange people."
"What do you mean?" Xiang Nan's heart skipped a beat.
The Dream butterfly said, "Someone might want to deal with the Nature Sect, or they might come for the joint examination of the twelve sects. Those people are secretive, and each of them is an expert amongst the experts."
"I've been secretly tracking them for a while, and I've even fought with a few of them. However, those people are very strong. After being seriously injured by me, they managed to escape."
"As expected" Xiang Nan had a bad premonition.
"But aren't you from the Heavenly Devil Sect? Why did you suddenly help the Haoran Sect?" Xiang Nan asked.
"I said, I want to be a woman that you like." Dream butterfly quickly wiped Xiang Nan's face and said, "Take care of yourself. I have to hurry back."
"This is a map. When I was searching for them these days, I found a few of their gathering points. Perhaps I didn't mark them complete enough. These are just a few of them."
"If you're worried, go find your master and ask her to help you investigate. However, you must not act recklessly. If you die, I will become a widow."
Meng Die touched Xiang Nan again and flew away with a giggle.
Xiang Nan blocked it for a moment and couldn't help but say helplessly, "This witch has been talking nonsense all day."
As he spoke, he spread out the scroll. This was a map of Haotian City that could be bought anywhere, but there were four places marked with red ink.
The four places were all located on the outskirts of Haotian City.
