Chapter 1319 - 1320: Driven Mad
At this moment, many people from the cities were completely dumbfounded as they watched Xiao Tianyu with the Purple Gold Battle Robe, unrivaled and peerless. Who would have thought that under the siege of numerous strong opponents, Xiao Tianyu would still manage to kill Zhan Shao, seize soul power, and become invincible with Purple Gold power?
Was this a move to kill Xiao Tianyu, or did it ultimately fulfill him?
Was this place not Xiao Tianyu’s stage?
Did Xiao Tianyu not deserve to stand here?
Recalling past incidents, it all seemed quite ironic.
If Xiao Tianyu didn’t deserve it, then who else did?
Earlier, because Xiao Tianyu could be bullied, people from many cities chose to besiege him, attempting to seize his soul power. But now Zhan Shao was killed by a single spear from Xiao Tianyu, marking the rise of Xiao Tianyu with the Purple Gold Battle Robe.
Beneath gold, it is Purple Gold that is invincible.
In the battlefield, who can rival?
The one with the most complicated feelings was undoubtedly Lu Yaojia. Her beautiful eyes flickered as she stared at Xiao Tianyu, wrapped in Purple Gold, filled with deep regret for refusing his earlier offer to join forces.
Rejecting Xiao Tianyu didn’t matter, but she chose to assist Xiao Tianyu’s enemy, Zhan Shao.
Now that Zhan Shao was killed by Xiao Tianyu, what should she do?
But, a missed opportunity is missed; she knows there is no turning back now. She can only be a stepping stone for others to rise, so much so that Xiao Tianyu doesn’t even bother to glance at her.
Shh~
On the other side, with a light sound, everyone’s eyes shifted, seeing a young armor-clad man having his throat pierced by Bai Bufan’s halberd, his soul power seized, marking Bai Bufan’s rise with the Purple Gold power.
Thus, the battlefield now had two rising stars with the Purple Gold Robe, making the outcome seem determined.
"Kill!" Suddenly, Zhou Mian yelled, reaching out directly to grab the remaining people from Yunhai City with a must-kill move.
Now that Zhan Shao had fallen, the remaining people from Yunhai City only wore Bronze Battle Robes, hardly a match for Zhou Mian. Bang, bang, bang~ sounds continued to ring out, as many people from Yunhai City perished under Zhou Mian’s attack.
Lu Yaojia’s beautiful eyes flickered, revealing a sense of despair, involuntarily glancing at Xiao Tianyu, yet Xiao Tianyu completely ignored her. Since she chose to assist Zhan Shao, she naturally had to bear the consequences of Zhan Shao’s death.
Is there regret?
At this moment, Lu Yaojia was extremely regretful. Previously, Xiao Tianyu invited her to join because she had once saved his life. Having chosen to assist Zhan Shao, Xiao Tianyu could say nothing, but he would certainly not help her.
Shh~
With a sound, Lu Yaojia’s delicate body was torn apart by Zhou Mian, leading to her elimination.
However, after Zhou Mian exterminated several prodigies from Yunhai City, he still did not obtain the Purple Gold power. His fierce gaze suddenly fell upon the people of Zhou City, leaving them dumbfounded.
Zhou Mian was ready to sacrifice them to achieve his own goals.
Wow~
Indeed, Zhou Mian stepped forward, reaching out to grab the people of Zhou City, rendering them hopeless as they obviously did not expect Zhou Mian to attack them. But given the current situation, they were inevitably his sacrificial pawns.
As for Xiao Tianyu, he calmly watched everything unfold, without making a move.
Bai Bufan did the same.
Perhaps, because neither of them considered Zhou Mian significant, allowing him to achieve the Purple Gold power only made him a stepping stone for their own rise.
One could also say that Bai Bufan only regarded Xiao Tianyu as his rival, not paying attention to anyone else, which was why he just assisted Xiao Tianyu.
Bai Bufan’s pride was internal; a solo duel against Xiao Tianyu was what he envisioned.
Sure enough, after Zhou Mian killed everyone in Zhou City, he became the third to don the Purple Gold Robe.
Seeing this, Zhu Chen, Jin Mo, Yue Qingfeng, Lu Ming, Tie Wushuang... all began to emulate, turning against their own cities’ prodigies to kill and seize power, rendering the battlefield chaotic.
This revealed the true character of these young City Lords, easily sacrificing their people for their own achievements.
Quickly, only twelve people remained on the battlefield. Sadly, Zhu Chen and Jin Mo were still steps away from manifesting the Purple Gold Robe, distanced by worlds.
Zhou Mian seized the opportunity, his soul power roared, Purple Gold waving, stepping forward to grab a youth in blue, imposing with a strength that offered no chance for retaliation.
Zhou Mian was very aware that only continuous strengthening held the hope for singular triumph.
Of course, Bai Bufan and Xiao Tianyu wouldn’t let Zhou Mian kill these young City Lords.
"Kill!" Xiao Tianyu suddenly yelled, thrusting his spear toward Tie Wushuang of Qingzhou City. The Purple Gold Robe blazing, unparalleled in glory. In an instant, Tie Wushuang felt an overwhelming pressure upon his shoulders.
With his Silver Battle Robe, under the pressure of the Purple Gold Robe, he seemed to have no power to fight back. This was not a battle of equals; how could Tie Wushuang escape Xiao Tianyu’s judgment?
Seeing this, Tie Wushuang’s face was painted with despair, his past pride utterly vanished.
Shh~
With the sound, Xiao Tianyu’s Battle Spear sealed his throat, drawing across a scarlet path, finally leading Tie Wushuang to his unwilling demise, pointing at Xiao Tianyu: "You..."
Bang~
Before he finished speaking, filled with reluctance, he collapsed into a pool of blood, his Life Spirit forcibly seized by Xiao Tianyu, his body gradually fading away.
In a flash, Xiao Tianyu’s gaze fell upon Yue Qingfeng, causing Yue Qingfeng to tremble with fear.
Earlier, Yue Qingfeng had mocked Xiao Tianyu, saying that if he feared, he ought not to go, and should leave the Soul Refining Battlefield meant for others, donning a Bronze Battle Robe.
But now, who feared?
Was it Xiao Tianyu?
No, it was Yue Qingfeng.
Currently, his life rested within Xiao Tianyu’s decision.
All these events seemed overwhelmingly ironic.
"Kill!" As the Battle Spear struck forth, Xiao Tianyu stepped forward, directing his spear toward Yue Qingfeng. Under the pressure of the Purple Gold Robe, Yue Qingfeng had no strength to defend.
Shh~
With the spear, blood followed, Xiao Tianyu’s spear plunged into the opponent’s head, applying light pressure, bang bang~ suddenly, Yue Qingfeng’s head burst apart, brutally slain by Xiao Tianyu, his soul power turning into a gleaming light, merging into Xiao Tianyu’s brow.
At this moment, the color of Xiao Tianyu’s Purple Gold Robe had begun to transform subtly, flashes of golden light appearing, dazzling in splendor, yet not fully adorned in Gold, but bearing traces of the Golden Battle Robe’s elegance.
Xiao Tianyu’s spear emerges, who dares contend?
Witnessing this, Mo Qingluan’s beautiful eyes were openly fervent. Should Xiao Tianyu kill one more, he would be adorned in gold, in which case, who could obstruct his ascent?
The battle today sealed Xiao Tianyu’s name, rising triumphantly across the Thousand Cities.
Those who were slain by Xiao Tianyu in the Soul Refining Battlefield would definitely spread word of him across the outer world.
Even amidst the vast Thousand Cities, Xiao Tianyu’s name would represent an era.
On the other side, Bai Bufan wielding his halberd, equally unmatched, white robes fluttering, Purple Gold adorned, in the young generation, who could stand against him? In his hands, Lu Ming and Jin Mo perished instantly under the long halberd.
