opened the Eye of Insight. 。Within the gaze of insight, one can finally see quite a few things. 。Just by X-ray vision, nothing seemed amiss. 。The island is normal, and there are no anomalies found un..."Where" Fang Yu asked again.

"Shénwǔtái," Zheng Ze said.

Fang Yu took out a map of Beidu, pinpointed the exact location of Shenwutai, and then activated Kongling Jie.

As Fang Yu was about to leave, Ye Shengxue gritted her teeth and asked, "Mr. Fang, can Zi Nan and I go to Shenwu Stage..."

Before he could finish his words, Hua emerged with a glow, disappearing along with Zheng Ze.

Yè Shèngxuè was stunned for a moment, her beautiful eyes filled with annoyance.

Having thought about it, she turned and left the Sutra Repository.

……

North City, Shenwu Platform.

This is the Beidu Arena, even the largest martial arts arena in all of Yanxia, specially built for hosting large-scale martial arts tournaments.

The size of the martial arts arena isn't just reflected in the arena itself, but also in the surrounding audience seating.

Like a typical football stadium, the stands can seat close to 50,000 spectators.

At this moment, the audience seats are nearly full.

The Grand Competition of a Hundred Schools is a once-in-a-decade event.

Therefore, even though martial arts sects are now in decline, they still attract a considerable number of spectators.

Because the Hundred Schools Grand Tournament wasn't heavily publicized in the Beidu martial arts world, most of the spectators who came to watch the competition were from other regions.

Among them, most are independent martial artists, a few are disciples of sects, and a very small number... come from various martial arts families.

They specially traveled a long distance to Beidu, not only to support their own regional sects but also to see the strength of sects from other regions.

After all, this is a once-in-a-decade event!

At this moment, all eyes of the audience were fixed on the two fighters in the arena!

This match pits the rising sect Ziyan Palace from the central region against the renowned veteran sect, Hongtian Sect, from the southwest!

Two elite disciples from each sect have already taken their positions on the martial arts stage.

On the side of Hongtian Sect, there was a man who looked to be in his thirties.

And the disciple sent by Ziyan Palace was a female disciple, young in appearance with beautiful features.

However, if you look closely from afar, you will find that this female disciple is emitting a faint gray mist.

"My name is Jiang Xiaolong, little sister. Brother will try his best to be gentle and take good care of you." The man chuckled, said with a flirtatious tone.

Ziyian Palace, a nameless sect, Jiang Xiaolong didn't take it to heart at all.

Before going on stage, his master told him to go all out and show the power of the Hongtian Sect.

But when he saw that the opponent's disciple was a pretty, young-looking female disciple, Jiang Xiaolong became even more delighted.

Now, he could not only display the strength of Hongtian Sect, but also act like a true gentleman.

"Sister, what's your name" Jiang Xiaolong asked.

"Clang!"

At this moment, the referee standing nearby has sounded the starting bell.

Jiang Xiaolong remained completely motionless, still exuding an air of relaxed pleasure as he waited for a response.

But just then, the woman across from him moved.

"Whoosh!"

She kicked the ground with her foot, her figure like a ghost, leaving an afterimage in the air.

A sharp and intense aura came rushing towards them!

Jiang Xiaolong only felt a chill on his neck, his face changed drastically, and he wanted to dodge!

"Bang!"

The next second, he was completely paralyzed.

"Click!"

Jiang Xiaolong's head is a human, and he struggles desperately. His expression is still frozen in terror.

Seeing this, the audience was silent.

Nobody expected this match... to end so quickly, and so tragically!

Before the game, many people still thought it would be a lopsided match...

Of course, the current result also reflects the disparity in strength, only this time the object has been reversed!

This female disciple from Ziyan Palace defeated Jiang Xiaolong, an inner sect disciple from Hongtian Sect, with one strike, securing the victory for the first round of the competition!

The audience watched in horror as the decapitated body, still spurting blood, lay on the ground.

This... is too cruel.

Although the Hundred Sects Grand Competition had each sect sign a death warrant, permitting killing on the martial arts stage.

But in reality, not many sects would actually kill each other.

After all...there's no need to sever ties with everyone, nor is it necessary to make an enemy of the sect.

But this newly emerged sect, the Purple Flame Palace, killed their opponents without hesitation.

This approach… would certainly not be a good thing for a nascent sect.

All these sects present here have witnessed this event with their own eyes!

With such brutality, who would want to befriend the Ziyan Palace!

"Damn! Damn!"

Here at the Hongtian sect, the leading elder's face was ashen, his forehead practically throbbing with veins.

He never thought Jiang Xiaolong would lose so quickly, let alone that the other party would kill him without hesitation!

Hongtian Zong and Ziyanguan have no grievances, why would the other party attack!

"My name is Xiu Mei."

On the martial arts stage, a female disciple from Ziyan Palace gently pushed the headless corpse that was stiffening in its place.

The body lay on the ground, a gaping wound in its neck... blood still spurting from it.

And Xiu Mei had already turned and walked off the stage.

All eyes were on her.

Judging solely by Xiu Mei's appearance, it would be hard to imagine her capable of such cruelty.

Only Xiu Mei slowly walked back to the area belonging to Ziyan Palace.

And that place...was deserted!

……

Fang Yu and Zheng Ze came to Shenwu Stage, but they couldn't find their designated seats, so they directly sat on the steps of the aisle at the top of the audience seating.

When they arrived, Xiu Mei was just coming off stage.

Only the two could see the headless corpse on the martial arts platform.

At this time, guards have already come onto the stage to clean up.

"The first match of the Central Region's Ziyang Palace against the Southwest Region's Hongtian Sect, Ziyang Palace wins!"

At this time, the referee used true energy to amplify his voice and said loudly.

Ziyangu Palace……

Hearing these three words, Fang Yu's eyes instantly turned cold. He released his divine sense, shrouding the entire Shenwu Stage!thing he can do about it!Whenever there was even a glimmer of hope for victory, he would step up.But, there isn't!He can't see a glimmer of hope!"I understand how you feel," Fang Yu nodded. "Thanks fo...
