Chapter 688: Chapter 688_1

Su Chengyu shook his head, "You underestimate this most brilliant genius of the east, how could he just marking time for three years? He is now in the Ninth Grade of Martial Marquis Realm. Relying on his family’s unique martial arts, Lee Longqing should be able to rival a Half-Step Martial King."

Upon hearing this, Qin Siyuan’s face changed dramatically, "A Ninth Grade Martial Marquis? He truly lives up to the reputation of being a genius from the top martial arts aristocratic family in the east. It may be that a few decades later, the Lee family will produce another Martial Saint and their position in the east will be unshakeable. Mr. Su, what are the odds of winning if you compete with Lee Longqing for the Dragon Soul Champion?"

Su Chengyu smiled lightly, "No odds really, I have no intention of competing with him for the championship. It’s just a title, there’s nothing to fight over."

Su Chengyu’s purpose for participating in the Dragon Soul Tournament had been achieved, he had killed Deng Taihui and also gained the favor of Great Minister Helian Xuan. That was enough.

As for the final individual race, Su Chengyu had no intention of winning the crown from the beginning, but having a chance to compete with Lee Longqing, the top-notch talent of the east, was a good opportunity for his training and he would go all out.

With his current realm, it is impossible to win unless he can elevate himself to the Eighth Level of Foundation Establishment, where he may have some chances to win.

However, Su Chengyu didn’t want to consume a Xuantong Pill to step into the eighth level, according to his plan, the Xuantong Pill was used to directly upgrade from the eighth level to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm, and once he entered the ninth level, he could also consume a Dragon Spirit Pill to enter the Tongxuan Realm.

He only wants to temper his Dao Heart and Dao Foundation now, preparing for the Tongxuan tribulation he would face in the future.

"The reward for the champion is very generous. It should be of some help to your cultivation." Qin Siyuan said.

"Do you know what the specific prize is?" Su Chengyu asked.

"I don’t know the specifics now. The specific rewards will be announced before the individual race starts on the fourth day of the Dragon Soul Tournament. But based on past rewards, it is mainly Elixirs and Cultivation Techniques, there may also be Divine Weapons, or some kind of Protective Dharma Treasures." Qin Siyuan said.

Su Chengyu nodded but didn’t give a response. Neither Cultivation Techniques nor Divine Weapons appealed to him, even if there was Elixir, it would depend on the grade. He wouldn’t be interested in any ordinary Elixir.

The competition had already started. The competitions between Danyang and Feng Yang Dragon Soul Departments are seen as a preview of the final. If nothing unexpected, the final would be a showdown between the two Dragon Soul Departments. A lot of people had come to watch the competition and the space around the Martial Arts Field was packed with people.

Both sides had made their arrangements and on-site response is also very important. Neither side had sent out their strongest players at the beginning, instead, they were tentatively exploring each other. Su Chengyu could tell their realms at a glance, but realms sometimes didn’t always equate to the actual combat power.

All of them were the most elite among the younger generations of the Dragon Soul Departments, they were all talented and for them to have cross-rank combat power was not surprising.

Eventually, Feng Yang’s side proved stronger. Danyang had taken a point first, but with Lee Longqing’s play, he directly scored four points for Feng Yang. After Lee Longqing’s turn, Danyang immediately sent their top seed Jiang Yongqi, aiming to grab the score and balance the game.

Jiang Yongqi had advanced from the second-grade Martial Marquis Realm to third-grade before coming. He was the proud disciple of Liang Youdao, while the second seed of the Danyang Dragon Soul Department was Guo Yijian’s son, Guo Junliang.

In Guo Junliang’s previous trade with Xiang Yuesheng, he wished to get the Ziyang Pill to enhance Guo Junliang’s strength, getting him one jump ahead of Jiang Yongqi, making him Danyang’s top seed, and shining brightly.

Unfortunately, he didn’t manage to kill Su Chengyu, so he naturally didn’t get the Ziyang Pill. Now, he was just a First Grade Martial Marquis.

After Jiang Yongqi played, he indeed won three rounds in a row for Danyang, leveling the score. However, after Jiang Yongqi’s consecutive battles against three people, Feng Yang sent a Martial Marquis Realm Expert in the fourth round and defeated Jiang Yongqi.

Finally, Feng Yang Dragon Soul Department won and advanced to the finals first.

Su Chengyu and Qin Siyuan left the Martial Arts Field to prepare for their own match.

The Jiangnan Dragon Soul Department easily defeated the Jianghuai. Next, it was the battle against the Jiangdong Dragon Soul Department. The result of this battle would determine the fourth place, and the winner would move into the top three.

As both parties entered the field, the eyes of Yin Huan and Xu Jianglong looking at Su Chengyu were full of hatred and killing intent. In their view, it was because of Su Chengyu that they were severely punished. This account, of course, had to be charged to Su Chengyu.

"Brother Yin, I heard that you were demoted. You have to take the upcoming matches seriously. If you lose to us, adding your previous punishment, I’m afraid your official hat won’t be safe anymore." Qin Siyuan deliberately provoked.

Yin Huan’s face darkened, "Don’t be too complacent too early. Your side only has Su Cheng that deserves a look, the others are useless. Do you think you can win with the help of Su Cheng?"

At this moment, Su Chengyu stepped forward, speaking indifferently, "Actually, I didn’t plan to take Jiangnan’s place initially. Our plan was to just get fourth place. But since you want to put me to death when there’s no grudge or complaint, don’t blame me for not being kind to you. In this battle, the Jiangnan Dragon Soul Department will surely lose, and your official hat will certainly not be safe. This is called reaping what you sow."

Yin Huan and Xu Jianglong had attempted to use Xiang Yuesheng to put him to death. How could Su Chengyu pretend as nothing had happened? He had to retaliate.

Yin Huan’s face twitched a few times, then he snorted coldly, "Kid, don’t be too conceited. You’re too full of yourself. The competition hasn’t started yet, the outcome is hard to predict. If you lose later, I’ll see if your face hurts. With just your effort, you can’t change the status quo. You’re overestimating yourself."

"Let’s wait and see." Su Chengyu responded nonchalantly.

With the arrival of the referee, the competition began officially. Even Helian Xuan came in person to watch this match.

The Jiangnan Dragon Soul Department didn’t have any players in the Martial Marquis Realm. The strongest top seed was a upper Ninth Grade Great Grandmaster named Zhang Yingjie. He was a standout among the younger generation in Jiangnan known far and wide. Besides him, the strengths of other team members from Jiangnan were not too impressive.

Of course, Jiangnan wouldn’t easily let Zhang Yingjie play. Yin Huan knew that once Zhang Yingjie played, Jiangdong would send Su Chengyu on stage.

In order to seize points and also to boost the morale of the soldiers, Yin Huan chose the second seed to play the first match. Yin Huan had a well-thought plan, the second seed would surely win the first match, none from Jiangdong except Su Chengyu could be his opponent.

Yin Huan wanted to use the second seed to fish, forcing Su Chengyu to play, and as soon as Su Chengyu was on the field, he would immediately switch players and send in four of the weakest cannon fodder. In this way, Jiangnan would still have the strongest Zhang Yingjie, which would be enough to firmly grasp the winning ticket.
