Chapter 248 - Confusion
Otherwise, Beichen would have lost both the second and third places to the refined saint,. If they were to compete with the top three of Dongsheng, it would be hard to say whether they would be able to maintain their second place.
Of course, Beichen"s strength should not be doubted by the crowd. They would only doubt the refined saint"s strength.
After all, this was an academy whose ranking and strength were constantly slipping. In the first two battles, they had indeed lost quite a bit. It was in line with everyone"s expectations. Now, someone suddenly appeared out of nowhere and defeated Beichen in second place before they could even see him clearly. It would be difficult to change the south continent"s impression of the refined saint being weak!
The crowd was more inclined to believe that the top three of the refined saint realm might indeed have some strength. If they were ranked lower, they might be a little weaker.
After a few battles, the spirit extinction cabinet flipped open and selected the candidates for the next battle.
"Western Star Academy versus Zhongsheng!"
"Shua!"
On the floating island, the crowd below the dueling platform immediately turned their heads and cast their gazes over.
Ao Song, the third point of the Western Star, was definitely a heaven"s chosen. He came from a Heavenly King clan and was known as the number one genius of his clan. Even within the Western Star Academy, he was also one of the top three heaven"s chosen.
If this heaven"s favorite were to compete, there wouldn"t be many people in the entire south continent who could beat him in the same cultivation realm!
And on the side of the Middle Sage Academy, only the seventh place had appeared. This time, they wouldn"t win for no apparent reason.
"Hahahaha!"
Shua!
With a flash, Ao Song had a smile on his face. His entire body was relaxed as he jumped onto the stage.
In the previous compet.i.tion, he had also fought against an opponent. Although he had won, it wasn"t as easy as beating his fellow disciples in his own academy. After all, they were all heaven"s favorites carefully selected by the top academies of the south continent.
Other than the top three refined saint students, the other refined saint students were not in his eyes at all.
"What a pity. You"re only ranked seventh. Are you really only ranked seventh in the Academy?"
Ao Song glanced at di Wuxin who had entered the arena. Narrowing his eyes, he opened his mouth to ask.
This was also what they had discussed after Western Star had inexplicably lost two matches in Beichen. This time, the refined saint was planning to muddle through and suppress the ranking of the experts to the back.
After di Wuxin heard this, he frowned slightly. He was a little puzzled. He had forcefully defeated the number one person in the five heavens. His strength was definitely not weak.
Based on the Di family"s a.n.a.lysis, Di Wuxin had the strength to be in the top three of the other academies.
However, the Xuan Master"s Disciple"s radiance was too strong. He had forcefully suppressed him to the seventh place.
In the other academies, this ranking was equivalent to being a second-level gatekeeper.
"Tsk!"
Ao Song immediately shook his head when he heard this, his gaze filled with disdain.
"If the one who came was the top three of the refined saint stage, then it would be a bit of a head start. You are just a mere seventh."
"That"s boring!"
He couldn"t even be bothered to pay attention to Di Wuxin. Instead, he turned his gaze to Yu Linglong and the others. It was clear that he had lost interest in Di Wuxin.
Not to mention the seventh in the refined saint realm, even the seventh in the East Victory Realm wouldn"t be a match for Western Star Academy"s top three.
This Di Wuxin was clearly going to suffer a crus.h.i.+ng defeat.
Just then, Di wuxin chuckled twice, and a brilliant light burst forth from his body. It contained a hint of anger, and an intense battle intent rose from his entire body.
What did he rely on to be able to consecutively challenge the geniuses of the various sects of the Holy Region?
It was his unparalleled battle physique!
It was his emperor-tier cultivation technique!
It was a combat ability that he was naturally good at and had been taught by the Heavenly Kings!
In front of him, Di Wuxin had let down his guard and even looked down on him?
No matter who it was, they would have to pay a heavy price.
Boom!
Di Wuxin couldn"t be bothered to explain. He just suppressed his anger and unleashed all of his strength!
He was convinced that Yu Linglong and the others were abnormally strong, but this meant that Yu Linglong"s impression of the geniuses of the southern continent far exceeded that of the southern continent. It didn"t mean that he was much weaker than the other geniuses of the southern continent.
"Fight!"
Boom!
A vast iron-blooded will burst forth from Di Wuxin"s body!
The entire sky above the floating island suddenly changed. The clouds in the sky turned blood-red, and endless battle cries rang out in the sky. In an instant, Ao Song felt as if he was on the battlefield!
And Di Wuxin was the biggest meat grinder on the battlefield!
Di Wuxin"s punch came over, but in Ao Song"s spiritual perception, it felt like countless people were attacking at the same time. It actually gave people a feeling of being unstoppable!
He gritted his teeth and summoned his spiritual essence. After catching it, Ao Song let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that his spiritual sense reaction wasn"t very accurate. At most, it was at the level of three people working together. He could still catch it.
Since he could catch it, he was ready to fight back. He was also one of the chosen from the south continent. After a moment of shock, he focused his attention back to the image of an ancient tree behind him. The tree king was as fast as lightning as it lashed out with its whip.
Di Wuxin dodged it and then threw another punch. This punch was undefeatable!
Ao Song had no way to dodge. After receiving the punch, his expression changed drastically. He had a vague feeling that something was wrong and was about to retreat.
Then, Di Wuxin"s combat body was matchless. It was as if he was stuck to his opponent and would not let him off.
The more Ao Song fought, the more shocked he became. The more he fought, the paler his face became. Cold sweat flowed down his forehead to his chest. After five punches, his entire body trembled and he spat out a mouthful of blood. He was dispirited. Di Wuxin snorted coldly and kicked him in the chest. Like a broken bag, he was kicked off the stage.
Even though he was ranked seventh, it did not mean that his strength was weaker than the top three of the other academies.
Di Yuxin had the unparalleled combat body!
With his strength as proof, he had no pressure at all!
Dong!
The third place of the Western Star had lost to the seventh place of the refined saint realm. This result shocked the crowd so much that they did not even regain their senses after a few rounds.
At this moment, the host struck the gong and announced the start of the next round.
After a few rounds.
"Feng Pingzi versus Cai Ling"er!"
All the people from the floating island turned their gazes over.
The victory of Saint Academy"s Di Wuxin had exceeded everyone"s expectations. However, against the ever-growing Dongsheng Academy, it was difficult for everyone to have high expectations for the middle sage, who had been weak for many years.
The reason was simple. Di Wuxin had fought many rounds against Ao Song, who was ranked third in the western star.
There weren"t many people who could come to the floating island to watch the battle. The more di Wuxin fought, the more his strength would be exposed.
In everyone"s opinion, Di Wuxin"s strength would definitely be ranked third in any academy!
In the end, the Zhongsheng Academy, whose ranking was constantly dropping, was only ranked seventh!
If not for Feng Shuyi and Yan Wei, who were ranked ninth and tenth, everyone would have thought that the strength of Zhongsheng had quietly increased. However, with these two contestants losing in front of them, everyone was certain that the strength of a Middle Sage Academy would not improve by much!
As for a mere seventh place, he was actually able to defeat the third place of the Western Star Academy.
"Is the middle sage academy trying to muddle along?"
In the audience stands, the Vice Dean of the West Star Academy glared fiercely in the direction of the Zhongsheng Academy. His gaze was fierce.
