I Just Want To Destroy The Sect, But How Did I Become A God Against All Odds -
Chapter 113: It's just that the guy on the other side was too weak
Mu Xiaoqi made only two moves: the first was a green light that directly countered all the vines, and the second was a golden blade light.
But with just these seemingly casual two moves, Shen Hui was already spitting blood and fell off the platform.
Mu Xiaoqi stood on the platform, still looking utterly confused.
He had been especially nervous when he first stepped onto the stage.
After all, this wasn't just about the Sect's reputation; it also concerned Senior Brother Xinghe.
Senior Brother Xinghe valued him so much; how could he let Senior Brother Xinghe down?
So, I have to win this battle!
But the opponent looked so strong, I wasn't confident at all. What if I lost?
And then, the opponent started playing with vines?
Is this guy an idiot?You're playing with vines against someone from Muyue Nation, what are you thinking?
Even when I was wetting my pants as a kid, I played with vines better than you!
No way... this fool isn't trying to wrap me with vines, is he...
Are you really going to play this flashy?
Weren't they rumored to be incredibly strong? Is this it?
Mu Xiaoqi first controlled the vines, then with a single slash powered by the Great Evolution Heavenly Gold Art, the golden blade light, along with the vines and Shen Hui, were all instantly defeated.
It took Mu Xiaoqi a full half-minute to realize, I think I won?
This Shen Hui is way too weak, isn't he?
Mu Xiaoqi looked bewildered, but the level of confusion on the scene far exceeded his own.
Chu Xinghe had already imagined Mu Xiaoqi being wrapped up and then deep-fried... no, knocked off the platform.
But what the hell was this sudden turn of events?
Weren't they supposed to be the weakest from Muyue Nation? You went up and instantly defeated a Martial Emperor City's genius, did you consider how the disciples from Martial Emperor City would feel?
Mu Xiaoqi, oh Mu Xiaoqi... you've really let me down!
The entire martial arts training ground was silent for a full half-minute, but then came a terrifying wave of applause.
"Xiaoqi, you're awesome!"
"Xiaoqi, you're so mighty! Even Senior Sister Wan Lin didn't defeat her opponent as fast as you did last year!"
"What is this Shen Hui... can he even compare to Senior Sister Wan Lin? The way Senior Sister Wan Lin got defeated looked way more elegant than his!"
"Exactly... although he got defeated faster than Senior Sister Wan Lin, when it comes to being defeated, I still think Senior Sister Wan Lin was the most graceful!"
Wan Lin: "¥……¥%%u0026……u0026**……*……u0026"
The Great Elder was also dumbfounded, but unlike the others, he quickly realized what had happened.
This Shen Hui was strong, really strong.
However, Shen Hui must have been practicing the Ten Thousand Woods Heart Sutra from Martial Emperor City. Even though it's the top technique of Martial Emperor City, Zheng Yu didn't consider that Shen Hui would be facing a disciple from Muyue Nation.
It's just that in the past, disciples from Muyue Nation really had no talent for wood-based techniques.
There were plenty of instances where wood-based techniques completely crushed disciples from Muyue Nation.
Some even mocked that disciples from Muyue Nation held the best wood spirits but couldn't even utilize the most basic wood-based techniques.
So Zheng Yu's choice wasn't wrong in itself. Both are wood-based, and my Ten Thousand Woods Heart Sutra can't defeat someone from Muyue Nation?
But Zheng Yu's mistake was not understanding the current disciples of Muyue Nation. After Xinghe gave them dual cultivation of gold and fire, not only were the disciples of Muyue Nation fierce in gold and fire, but even their wood element was activated.
Moreover, the Great Elder knew that even though Xiaoqi's cultivation level was at the bottom among the three hundred, his talent was definitely among the top ten.
The purity of his wood spirit was unparalleled.
He just liked to be lazy, not that he lacked ability!
So Shen Hui's vine attack seemed like child's play to Xiaoqi, and then the Great Evolution Heavenly Gold Art's slash fully exploited the gold-overcoming-wood tactic, leaving Shen Hui with no ability to resist...
But compared to Xiaoqi's easy victory, the Great Elder was truly satisfied when he looked at Chu Xinghe!
It turned out Xinghe had already calculated everything; this battle, Xinghe deserves the most credit!
Mu Xiaoqi hopped off the platform and gave the composed Chu Xinghe a big bear hug.
"Senior Brother Xinghe, I didn't let you down, did I?"
Not at all... I, Chu Xinghe, am not disappointed at all. I should thank your ancestors for eight generations, Mu Xiaoqi!
Did I send you up there to instantly defeat someone? I sent you up there to lose face! Do you understand what an opening loss is... what the hell are you doing?
"Xiaoqi! Amazing!"
"Xiaoqi, I didn't expect you to be this strong now!"
A group of brothers and sisters from Muyue Nation came up to praise Xiaoqi.
"Thank you, Senior Brothers and Sisters, but it's really not that I'm strong; it's just that the guy on the other side was too weak... I hadn't even used my strength, and he flew off..."
Chu Xinghe was in tears!
You hadn't even used your strength? You already hit me with all your might!
Gu Mingchao's face was beaming like a flower, watching Cheng Xiaotian, who was standing nearby with a face as dark as the bottom of a pot but still trying to maintain a smile. He felt like he was seeing himself after the first match last year.
"Brother Xiaotian... just a fluke, just a fluke!"
Cheng Xiaotian: "..."
Zheng Yu helped up Shen Hui, who was still spitting blood, and was stunned for a full minute.
He had thought Shen Hui might lose, but he never expected Shen Hui to lose in such a humiliating way.
He had underestimated Senior Brother Xinghe!
His mindset was still stuck in the past methods of dealing with Muyue Nation, but he forgot that the current Muyue Nation was trained by Senior Brother Xinghe!
How could it possibly be compared to the past Muyue Nation?
Looking at Shen Hui, who had lost all will to live, Zheng Yu couldn't spare any comfort, because the second match was about to begin.
"Yue Cheng, be extremely careful in this second match, you absolutely cannot lose!"
Zheng Yu instructed Yue Cheng beside him with a serious face.
"Rest assured, Senior Brother Zheng Yu, gold overcomes wood. What I practice is our Martial Emperor City's Golden Clarity Battle Intent, which naturally counters Muyue Nation! There's no chance of losing!"
Hearing Yue Cheng's words, Zheng Yu nodded slightly.
Not bad... gold overcomes wood! This round is secure!
On the Muyue Nation side, Chu Xinghe pointed at Mu Xiaoqi, unable to say a word for a long time.
Finally, his gaze turned to Mu Bai's side, to Mu Heng.
"Mu Heng, step forward!"
"Senior Brother Xinghe!" Mu Heng, who was called out, looked excited, while the others looked disappointed.
Why didn't Senior Brother Xinghe choose me... I also want to go up and fight!
"Mu Heng, you'll take the second match, but I have a few words to tell you."
"Senior Brother Xinghe's instructions, Mu Heng dares not disobey."
"Good! Mu Heng, you know, although this martial competition concerns the reputation of the Grand Sky Sect, Martial Emperor City has come from afar. If they lose all three matches, wouldn't it be said that our Grand Sky Sect doesn't know how to treat guests? So for this second match... I want you to hold back and let the opponent win one round."
"What?"
The three hundred disciples of Muyue Nation were all dumbfounded.
But thinking about it carefully, Senior Brother Xinghe makes sense.
Just look at how pathetic Shen Hui was just now; this martial competition is already in the bag.
Martial Emperor City came from afar, and if they lose all three matches, how would that look?
Last year, when Senior Brother Xinghe was in trouble, Martial Emperor City also issued a Martial Emperor Token to help, even though it was because of Zheng Yu, but Martial Emperor City did their utmost.
The Grand Sky Sect and Martial Emperor City have such a good relationship; if we give them a clean sweep, how would Martial Emperor City save face?
So Senior Brother Xinghe really thought it through. We were only thinking about how to win, but Senior Brother Xinghe not only thought about how to win, but also how to win with grace.
Mu Heng nodded solemnly, "Rest assured, Senior Brother Xinghe, I'll only use fifty percent of my strength!"
"Good! I'm sorry to trouble you!" Chu Xinghe was moved to tears.
What a good junior brother, willing to act when asked. Just for this, I'll forgive you for one-tenth of the things you did in Muyue Nation before.
Mu Heng, carrying Senior Brother Xinghe's instructions, stepped onto the platform.
The Great Elder looked at Mu Heng, who appeared more solemn than Mu Xiaoqi, and was slightly puzzled. Mu Heng was much better than Mu Xiaoqi, so why did he look more nervous?
But now wasn't the time to ask.
Because the second match had already begun.
A flash of gold appeared in Yue Cheng's hand, and a massive golden battle axe appeared.
Covered in golden light, Yue Cheng instantly entered berserk mode, transforming into a berserker.
Mu Heng's spirit weapon was a spear, and he suppressed his cultivation to below fifty percent.
Yue Cheng, wielding the golden battle axe, charged directly at Mu Heng, the axe constantly descending with golden light.
Seeing Yue Cheng taking the initiative, Zheng Yu showed a satisfied expression.
Chu Xinghe was even more satisfied!
But just as both sides were extremely pleased and satisfied, a burst of flames suddenly exploded on the platform!
The red spear in Mu Heng's hand suddenly ignited, enveloping him in flames!
Illuminating Sun Heart Sutra!
Although Mu Heng also practiced dual cultivation of gold and fire, those familiar with him knew he loved alchemy. Originally stronger in the Great Evolution Heavenly Gold Art, Mu Heng's Illuminating Sun Heart Sutra had advanced rapidly due to Senior Brother Xinghe's arrangement to focus on alchemy instead of cultivation.
And the spirit weapon Mu Heng obtained in the Spirit Tomb was a fire-element spear, so with the Illuminating Sun Heart Sutra paired with the fire-element spear, Mu Heng exploded instantly!
Gold overcomes wood, that's true!
But Muyue Nation practices dual cultivation of gold and fire!
Fire also overcomes gold!
Yue Cheng, who had just charged at Mu Heng, had the golden light of his battle axe shattered by the flames from Mu Heng's spear. Then, with a burst of flames, the terrifying fire engulfed the entire arena, completely suppressing Yue Cheng's Golden Clarity Battle Intent with the Illuminating Sun Heart Sutra.
The flames exploded, and Yue Cheng was sent flying, spitting blood as he fell off the platform...
Mu Heng: "???"
I only used fifty percent of my strength... why are the people from Martial Emperor City so weak!
No, Senior Brother Xinghe told me not to win... I... I think I messed up!
But Senior Brother Xinghe, this really isn't my fault... I only used fifty percent of my strength the whole time, it's just that the opponent was too weak... I'm really struggling here...
Yue Cheng flew off the platform, completely stunned... what happened to gold overcoming wood?
Why is someone from Muyue Nation more skilled in fire techniques? Is there no justice in this world?
What happened to my comeback?
Yue Cheng spat out a mouthful of blood, so angry that he even laughed at himself.
Then an incredibly strange scene unfolded.
Below the platform, Yue Cheng, who had been knocked off, was laughing wildly while spitting blood.
On the platform, Mu Heng, who had knocked him off, was on the verge of tears.
If you hadn't seen this match with your own eyes, you wouldn't be able to tell from the scene who was the winner and who was the loser...
