The huge arena once again fell into silence.
However, this time, the silence was no longer because of Gu Xi. Instead, it was because of an unknown small sect, the Blood Spirit Society, which was not even worthy of being called a third-rate sect.
Compared to Gu Xi’s thunderous momentum that defeated his opponent, the man in red from the Blood Spirit Society similarly ended the battle with a thunderous momentum. It was a kill, not a defeat.
Just as everyone was shocked by the Blood Spirit Society’s cruel methods, Gu Xi, who was in the room, frowned and fell into deep thought.
For some reason, he felt that the aura of the man in red was somewhat familiar.
“I didn’t expect that this year’s Grand Sect Competition would have so many talented people. I’ve never heard of the Blood Spirit Society having such a powerful disciple.” On the high platform, an old man stroked his beard and said with a smile.
He was not the only one. Almost everyone here was interested in the Blood Spirit Society. On the contrary, they did not care much about the loss of a disciple from the Wind Cloud Pavilion.
“That’s right. First, it was Gu Lan and Qing Zhu from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, and now it’s Tai Fengyi from the Blood Spirit Society. It seems that this competition is much more interesting than the previous one.”
The other elder chuckled. Everyone nodded noncommittally.
The more dark horses appeared in the competition, the more talented the younger generation of the Eastern Continent would be. Although there would inevitably be casualties in the competition, everyone present understood the principle of survival of the fittest.
Soon, another disciple from the Wind Cloud Pavilion ascended the arena.
This person’s expression was gloomy. It was obvious that he was extremely angry at the red-clothed man’s methods.
“It seems that you are a little angry. Do you want to take revenge for him?” The red-clothed man pointed at the spot where that person had been lying. Even now, there was still a pool of blood on the ground.
“You will accompany him very soon.” The Wind Cloud Pavilion disciple gritted his teeth as the spiritual energy in his body began to boil.
Faced with the man’s undisguised killing intent, the red-robed man appeared very relaxed and comfortable. He did not feel at a loss because of this. “I should be the one saying this to you. Your Wind Cloud Pavilion’s strength is really a little disappointing.”
Hearing this, not only did the Wind Cloud Pavilion disciple on the stage reveal anger, but even the Wind Cloud Pavilion disciples who were waiting to enter the arena below had furious expressions on their faces. If the Grand Sect Competition allowed a group fight, these people would have already rushed forward.
On the other hand, the people of the Blood Spirit Society were all like wooden blocks. It was as if they were already used to hearing the words of the red-clothed man on the stage.
“Let the match begin!” With the referee’s order, the battle began again.
The disciple of the Wind Cloud Pavilion did not lose his mind because of anger. He knew that the red-clothed man in front of him was able to kill his Senior Brother in one strike. There must be a certain gap between his strength and his Senior Brother. In short, he was definitely not easy to deal with.
He did not choose to attack immediately. Instead, he chose to observe first and wait for a suitable opportunity to defeat the enemy in one strike. This way, he could regain their face.
On the other hand, the red-robed man seemed to be a little impatient as he watched the disciple of the Wind Cloud Pavilion quietly. With a tap of his toes, he turned into a blood-red long rainbow and dashed forward at an extremely fast speed.
However, he did not choose to charge directly at the Wind Cloud Pavilion disciple. Instead, he circled around him at a speed that was difficult for the naked eye to catch. As time passed, the blood-red long rainbow’s speed became increasingly faster. In the end, it even became indistinct.
“Damn it, how can he be so fast?!”
At this moment, the Wind Cloud Pavilion disciple held a spirit tool in his hand. He looked around in a panic. The vigilance in his heart had already been raised to the extreme. He was prepared to deal with the sudden attack launched by the red-robed man at any time.
He did not want to follow in his Senior Brother’s footsteps because of his carelessness.
As the blood-colored rainbow sped up, a fierce wind blew in all directions on the arena. A thick smell of blood spread out from nowhere, causing the disciple of the Wind Cloud Pavilion to frown. Soon, he felt a sense of dizziness in his head.
“Not good!”
This feeling of dizziness only appeared for a moment, and he seemed to have woken up from a dream. His entire person instantly came back to his senses.
But when he recovered, he discovered that he had an additional red figure.
He looked straight ahead, and his gaze met with that scarlet pupil for an instant.
The spiritual power in his body erupted without holding back, and a huge wave of impact surged wildly in all directions from the body of the Wind Cloud Pavilion disciple, trying to force the red-clothed man to retreat.
The result was as he had hoped, and the red-clothed man was forced to retreat helplessly amidst this wave of spiritual power. But at the same time that he retreated, a streak of red light shot out from his hand.
In the blink of an eye, the red-robed man’s figure retreated more than a thousand feet. The disciple of the Wind Cloud Pavilion also heaved a sigh of relief with lingering fear.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he realized that he could not make a sound.
A burning pain came from his neck. Following that, a hot current surged out from it, gradually wetting his chest and dripping onto the ground.
He was a little lost, but he just happened to find his teammates below the stage looking at him in fear, as if they had seen something terrible.
He subconsciously raised his head to touch his neck, and then his hand was dyed red by a large amount of blood. The pungent smell of blood rushed to his head at this moment.
“Ugh…” Only then did he react, and his expression immediately became desperate.
He turned his head to look at the red-clothed man a thousand feet away. He could not see the man’s expression clearly, but he could vaguely see the pair of terrifying eyes under the bamboo hat.
His vision became increasingly blurry, and his entire body became colder and colder. He wanted to activate the spiritual power in his body, but no matter how hard he tried, it was useless.
A moment later, he could not hold on any longer. His eyes turned white, and his entire body fell backward heavily onto the ground. Blood seemed to flow all over the ground.
“He… He also died?”
On the silent viewing platform, someone muttered after a long time.
No one had expected that the Blood Spirit Society would attack so ruthlessly.
Even the elders on the high platform could not help but frown.
“This Blood Spirit Society… I’m afraid it’s not that simple.”
In the room, Gu Xi, who had seen everything, could not help but speak out.
Beside them, Qing Zhu cast her gaze over and the two of them exchanged a glance.
Such ruthless methods and a familiar aura made the two of them involuntarily think of some things, some things that they had experienced in the Southern Continent.
“The outer realm demonic race… has already infiltrated this place…”
Looking at the figure below, Gu Xi clenched his fists.
