Chapter 777: Li Yun vs Yan Wuchen!

"What?"

"In this kind of situation, Li Yun actually managed to turn the tables?"

This scene left everyone dumbfounded, and they almost could not believe their own eyes.

It had looked as though Li Yun was about to lose. But in the next instant, he staged a desperate reversal and turned defeat into victory.

It was simply a miracle.

"How is this possible?"

Luo Sheng’s expression was ugly to the extreme.

Being reversed at the moment of imminent victory felt as if he had just climbed onto a high pedestal, only to be forcibly pushed off.

Especially since before the match began, he had been completely disdainful of Li Yun and had looked down on him from the beginning.

Yet in the end, he suffered a crushing defeat.

This made it even more unacceptable.

"Hehe. It seems the so-called Three Great Eye Technique Clans are nothing more than this."

Not far away, a light chuckle suddenly rang out.

Yan Wuchen glanced toward Luo Sheng and Xie Yanluo with a mocking expression.

"You!"

Luo Sheng was instantly enraged.

Losing to Li Yun had already made him extremely frustrated. Now that Yan Wuchen actually dared to mock him, his fury surged even more.

"What? Am I wrong?"

With a sarcastic smile, Yan Wuchen said indifferently, "As descendants of the Three Great Eye Technique Clans, you cannot even defeat a cultivator at the 2nd level of Heavenly Core Realm. If I were you, I would have no face to remain here."

"Good. Very good."

Luo Sheng gritted his teeth and said, "Yan Wuchen, I will remember you. I hope that when we fight, you can still be this arrogant."

"Easy enough."

Yan Wuchen laughed heartily.

Then, his gaze turned provocatively toward Li Yun.

After these few matches, he felt that he had already seen through Li Yun.

In his view, Li Yun was merely somewhat capable in the Way of the Soul and decent in terms of his physical body. Everything else was mediocre and nothing special.

Yan Wuchen would not be as stupid as Luo Sheng and Xie Yanluo, foolishly engaging Li Yun in a battle on the soul level.

If it were him, he would never give Li Yun the opportunity to use soul techniques.

He would defeat Li Yun directly before Li Yun could even act.

However, Li Yun did not notice Yan Wuchen’s provocative gaze at all.

After the battle with Luo Sheng, the Evil Qi Vortex in his body had dissipated by another considerable margin.

’Only a few more battles, and perhaps I can use this to break through to the 3rd level of Heavenly Core Realm.’

Li Yun mused silently.

However, after the recent battle, he had a feeling that opponents at Luo Sheng’s level could no longer pose enough threat to him and could no longer stimulate his potential.

It was not that Luo Sheng and Xie Yanluo were too weak.

Rather, they were simply countered too heavily by Li Yun.

"Fourth Knight. Yan Wuchen. I hope the two of you do not disappoint me."

Li Yun pulled back his thoughts and focused his gaze on the arena once more.

At this moment, the Fourth Knight and Xie Yanluo happened to be fighting on the stage.

After the sullen middle-aged man had paid a certain price for treatment, Xie Yanluo’s Ghost-Seizing Evil Eye had already recovered. He had also won his previous few matches.

However, when facing the Fourth Knight, Xie Yanluo’s expression was extremely solemn.

Although he was wicked and cold in temperament, he was not truly stupid.

As a follower of Huang Tianlin, it would be unreasonable if the Fourth Knight had no methods to counter the Way of the Soul.

This battle was destined to be difficult for him.

"Corrosive Dragon Demon Eye."

His eyes began spinning like vortices, and pitch-black light wove together into a cold, dark demonic dragon.

That dragon carried a strongly corrosive dark aura, which spread outward like a tide.

"Demon-Breaking Spear."

The Fourth Knight let out a sharp cry.

His entire body erupted with brilliant golden light, making him look like a golden-armored god of war.

He directly ignored the dark aura.

The long spear in his hand carried unstoppable momentum as it surged forward and thrust toward Xie Yanluo.

Bang!

In an instant, the golden spear landed on Xie Yanluo.

It erupted with unstoppable power and blasted him straight off the arena.

It was an overwhelming and crushing defeat.

The process of the Fourth Knight defeating Xie Yanluo was even faster and cleaner than everyone had imagined.

However, this was actually quite normal.

After all, the six knights under Huang Tianlin all cultivated upright and grand spear techniques. They had also been tempered through seas of corpses and blood since childhood.

They possessed both noble righteous qi and bloody killing intent.

What they feared least were demonic techniques like the Ghost-Seizing Evil Eye.

If the Fourth Knight had been fighting Luo Sheng, the outcome might have been uncertain. But against Xie Yanluo, his victory was not surprising at all.

Xie Yanluo’s defeat was not undeserved.

But with this loss, it could basically be concluded that he had lost the qualification to advance.

After all, before even fighting Luo Sheng or Yan Wuchen, he had already suffered two defeats. In this situation, the chance of advancing was already extremely slim, practically nonexistent.

In the next match, it was Li Yun’s turn again.

However, his opponent was only an ordinary cultivator, and he won easily.

Up to this point, he had won all six of his matches.

As long as he won one of his battles against either the Fourth Knight or Yan Wuchen, he could basically ensure his advancement.

However, at this point, most people were actually not optimistic about Li Yun.

So far, everyone’s assessment of Li Yun was that he was a master of the Way of the Soul.

Normally, such people were indeed terrifying and difficult to deal with. But in this type of arena competition, they were also subject to many restrictions.

That was because cultivators who could make it to this stage often had certain backgrounds and possessed methods to counter soul attacks.

Luo Sheng and Xie Yanluo had been proud of their own identities, so they had engaged Li Yun in soul-level confrontations.

But the Fourth Knight and Yan Wuchen would definitely not do the same.

Under such circumstances, Li Yun would lose his greatest advantage and would very likely lose both matches, causing him to be eliminated.

Whoosh!

Just then, two beams of light shot out in succession and landed on Li Yun and Yan Wuchen at the same time.

Finally, it was time for Li Yun and Yan Wuchen to fight.

Whoosh!

In the next moment, the figures of Li Yun and Yan Wuchen appeared on the arena almost at the same time.
