Xu Mu is from the Jiuli Tribe

Seeing Xu Mu's victory, a smile appeared on Xu Ningbing's lips. As expected of Xiao Mu.

[Affection +10]

I knew it, Brother would definitely win!

Dai Xingluo said with a smile, even though her entire body was wrapped in bandages.

[Affection +10]

Seeing Xu Mu's victory, Meng Wanyue actually felt a bit heavy-hearted.

Brother Mu is so strong, which means the enemies he faces in the future will definitely be even stronger.

What if she couldn't be of any help to him in the future?

She decided she needed to work even harder to improve her cultivation realm.

Jiang Huihui blew a bubble, unable to believe how someone could be as versatile as Xu Mu.

Just as he had said before, he only knew a little about alchemy and formations.

His combat ability was far stronger.

[Affection +10]

Fu Jinyu had already tried to imagine Xu Mu as strong as possible, but she didn't expect him to still exceed her expectations in the end.

She was also very glad to have befriended someone like Xu Mu.

[Affection +10]

However, she also felt a sense of crisis. What if a man like him was snatched away?

Especially by someone like Nalan Shisan, that seductive bitch.

Tong Guoguo's inner thoughts were different from the others.

Previously, she worked for Wang Hun.

Her goal was to kill Xu Mu. Xu Mu clearly had such a powerful ultimate move, yet he had never used it on her.

Could it be... Xu Mu had been interested in her from the very first time they met?

Stupid man...

Tong Guoguo took out another apple from her spatial ring and took a bite.

[Affection +20]

Above the white clouds.

The many sect masters and elders all remained completely silent.

The attack just now had far exceeded their expectations.

No one could have imagined that a mere Grandmaster could unleash such tremendous power.

This kid... is too overbearing.

Yao Dingli narrowed his eyes, his hands wrapped in black bandages trembling slightly.

Did he hide his true strength? I think even a typical Peak Mortal Shedding cultivator wouldn't be able to unleash the attack from just now, right?

Wang Chi looked at the people around him.

No, he must have used a powerful cultivation method. The grade and power of his Qi didn't increase; it was just a massive quantity just now.

Yao Dingli said softly, This Zhengde Faxie Sect has a supreme expert backing it.

On the arena.

Xu Mu walked up to Bai Qingyuan and took the initiative to reach out his hand. Are you alright?

Bai Qingyuan looked at Xu Mu in front of her. When she first met him, she was only slightly interested.

She hadn't expected to encounter such a god-like figure.

Since she was young, it was always Bai Qingyuan who defeated opponents of higher levels. Today, she was actually cross-level defeated by a Peak Grandmaster.

Eldest Senior Sister!

Several disciples of the Cold Immortal Sect quickly rushed over and pushed Xu Mu away.

Xu Mu shrugged and walked off the arena.

No one had thought he would win before. Originally, everyone thought the top three this time would be the same as the last tournament.

Unexpectedly, a Cheng Yaojin came out of nowhere halfway through.

Now, the top three had been confirmed: Xu Mu, Jiang Cisui, and Yun Yao.

Xu Mu felt a bit helpless; he was forced into the top three this time.

His goal was simply to fight Jiang Cisui and make him more interested in himself.

Wu Tian clearly didn't know that he would become brothers with Jiang Cisui in the later stages.

Taking advantage of the present, Xu Mu could make his move.

If he waited until the future when the two had established a deep friendship, it wouldn't be so easy for Xu Mu to intervene.

According to the rules, Xu Mu would fight Jiang Cisui and Yun Yao separately next.

If he lost to both of them, he would be in third place.

Then Jiang Cisui and Yun Yao would compete for first place.

Xu Mu now only hoped to encounter Jiang Cisui directly. As for winning or losing against Yun Yao, he didn't care.

The names of the three appeared on the field. Finally, three silk pouches were shuffled, and two were picked out.

Xu Mu, Jiang Cisui.

Seeing this, Xu Mu immediately clenched his fists. Great.

This way, he wouldn't need to fight Yun Yao.

Xu Mu took out his Qi-Replenishing Pills. After eating two, he continued to walk onto the field.

Jiang Cisui didn't yawn this time. He walked up to Xu Mu with a smile, I can wait for you to recover a bit. After all, you just went through a huge battle.

No need.

A black longsword appeared in Xu Mu's hand. I've already taken Qi-Replenishing Pills. Let's fight.

In front of Jiang Cisui, water droplets condensed once again, turning into an ice sword.

He gripped the ice sword and grinned, Alright!

Swish, swish, swish!

Three streams of sword aura shot towards Xu Mu.

Xu Mu immediately unleashed the Heaven Burning Sword Art, similarly slashing out three streams of sword aura.

Whoosh!

The sword auras collided with each other, but no explosion occurred. Instead, they counterbalanced each other, almost coming to a standstill in mid-air.

So strong!

Jiang Cisui was surprised in his heart. He didn't expect the sword aura of a Peak Grandmaster to actually be on par with his own.

Swoosh!

Jiang Cisui's figure dashed forward, arriving in front of Xu Mu in the blink of an eye.

Just like when he dealt with Wu Tian earlier, the speed at which he swung his sword created over a dozen phantom afterimages.

The ice sword attacked Xu Mu's vital points from all directions.

But Xu Mu was not Wu Tian. His physique was stronger than Jiang Cisui's.

He pushed his powerful body to the limit. The sound of his swinging arms was like the propellers of a helicopter.

The afterimages he produced were more than twice as many as Jiang Cisui's.

Clang, clang, clang...

While Xu Mu rapidly blocked Jiang Cisui's attacks, he was also able to counterattack extremely quickly.

Jiang Cisui was dumbfounded. Unable to parry the blows, he quickly retreated.

In just a few seconds, his body was covered in wounds.

The crowd in the audience seats was completely dumbfounded. What was going on?

This Xu Mu was actually suppressing Jiang Cisui in a fight?

Interesting! This is too interesting!

Jiang Cisui looked at the wounds on his body, his eyes full of excitement.

Boom!

The blue aura released from his body continued to spread. The ground of the entire arena collapsed along with it, subsequently revealing formation runes.

Feeling this power, Yun Yao's eyes instantly turned solemn. Late Mortal Shedding!

Above the white clouds.

The sect masters of the major sects couldn't believe it.

Jiang Cisui actually reached the Late Mortal Shedding stage?

Dong Chengdao exclaimed.

One must know that Yun Yao had only just stepped into the Mid Mortal Shedding stage two years ago.

Jiang Zhenqi merely smiled and didn't explain much.

Late Mortal Shedding?

During the last martial arts tournament, his son had already reached it.

Ice Ruin Indestructible Armor!

Jiang Cisui laughed loudly. The blue light surrounding his body suddenly turned into ice shards, eventually forming a layer of ice armor.

Ice spikes extended from the knees and elbows of the ice armor.

Within a five-meter radius around him, countless ice shards rapidly swirled around him.

Bang!

The ground beneath Jiang Cisui's feet shattered into pieces. In an instant, he flashed right in front of Xu Mu.

Xu Mu immediately prepared to defend, but found himself caught within the rapidly swirling ice shards.

Even with the protection of the Heaven Burning Sword Aura, the piercing cold made his body somewhat stiff, severely affecting his speed.

Swish!

The ice sword struck towards Xu Mu, and Xu Mu immediately raised his hand to block it.

Not bad! To think you can still move within the range of my Indestructible Armor, you really amaze me!

Just as Jiang Cisui finished speaking, he suddenly raised his knee, the sharp spikes on it thrusting towards Xu Mu's stomach.

Hum!

Right at this moment, Xu Mu's body was also enveloped in armor.

Demon's Protection.

Seeing this, Wang Chi immediately jumped to his feet. "That's a technique of the Jiuli Clan! Xu Mu is from the Jiuli Clan!"
