Young Master in Flower City

Chapter 1288 - 1289: Securing a Place in the Top Five

Sponsored

It seemed as if this palm had truly crushed the cosmos.

Buzz~

The fierce wind howled, the Wind Law burst forth, and Xiao Tianyu’s figure left its original spot, causing the opponent’s Palm Seal to fall into emptiness, stirring up a destructive tide.

"Godslaying Sword!" Xiao Tianyu coldly snorted, his robe billowing fiercely, and his aura changed, like Ling Tian the Sovereign, surrounded by the light of the Five Elements, as if he were the embodiment of the laws of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

Xiao Tianyu alone wielded control over all laws in the world.

"This guy actually has a trump card!" On top of the city wall, Mo Xuan looked excited. One person manifesting the Five Elements Laws—how terrifying of a Martial Arts talent is this? Was this the trump card this kid had for challenging the Wind and Cloud Banquet with Divine Level Seventh Layer?

Originally, Mo Xuan believed there was no doubt Xiao Tianyu would lose this battle. But as Xiao Tianyu unleashed the Five Elements Laws, he seemed to realize that Xiao Tianyu might not necessarily lose, as he possessed multiple laws.

"This bastard!" Mo Qingluan glanced at Xiao Tianyu, secretly cursing, seemingly also finally understanding why Xiao Tianyu could turn the tables at the Wind and Cloud Banquet.

She thought, if Xiao Tianyu were Divine Level Ninth Layer today, the vast Wind and Cloud Banquet might be swept away, including herself, Mo Qingluan.

"This man must die!" Demon Heaven watched everything, whispering in his heart, clearly realizing that Xiao Tianyu’s existence posed too great a threat to Celestial Demon City.

The Five Elements Laws burst forth, metal, wood, water, fire, and earth fused, the Five Elements Sword shattered everything, and from the void descended a strike toward Yan Hai.

Xiao Tianyu lived in Eternal Hell for billions of years and had long comprehended the Heaven and Earth Profound Level. Thus, the Five Elements Laws were naturally effortless for him.

Bang bang bang~

The Five Elements Sword directly struck Yan Hai’s Palm Seal. Suddenly, the Palm Seal crumbled in the void. The demonic might on Yan Hai was suppressed, seemingly just as Xiao Tianyu had said, this sword could slay gods.

Boom~

Then a huge sound followed, and Yan Hai’s body was flung out, the Sword Aura pierced through his shoulder, and blood spilled.

Everyone watched this, their hearts stirred by a mighty wave. Strong as Yan Hai was, he was still defeated by Xiao Tianyu. In this battle, although Xiao Tianyu was already injured, he thoroughly secured his place among the top five.

He, with Divine Level Seventh Layer, defeated Yan Hai who practiced the Great Sun Buddha Seal, stepping forward to claim a seat among the top five.

After this battle, Yan Hai was completely out of the running for the top three.

Xiao Tianyu seemed to be the strongest dark horse of this tournament.

Originally, everyone believed Yan Hai, who crushed Li Qingyun, had great hopes to challenge the top three. But now they finally realized they were wrong—not to mention challenging the top three, Yan Hai didn’t even manage to step into the top five.

Now, the top five seats were completely set: Mo Qingluan, Demon Heaven, Zhan Tian, Li Fei, and Xiao Tianyu.

These five will be the most dazzling of this tournament. They will eventually compete for the top three seats, and everyone basically knows who the top three will be.

They believe it must undoubtedly be Mo Qingluan, Demon Heaven, and Zhan Tian.

Moreover, between Zhan Tian and Demon Heaven, one of them is bound to be the first of this Wind and Cloud Banquet.

As for Mo Qingluan, she already stands no chance of securing first place, as she was previously defeated by Zhan Tian, and first place has thoroughly eluded her.

Of course, Mo Qingluan still has the qualification to compete for the second and third of the top three seats.

However, Xiao Tianyu is still the least favored, despite breaking into the top five.

Concerning Li Fei, he possesses dominant demon might, strong bloodline, and in the same realm, he is also hard to match. Therefore, if Xiao Tianyu wants to land in the top three, he must first defeat Li Fei.

Yet, how difficult is this.

"Take it!" At this moment, Mo Qingluan beside Xiao Tianyu handed over a clean handkerchief to him. Xiao Tianyu took the handkerchief and gently wiped the blood from his mouth, then discarded it.

Mo Qingluan glared coldly at Xiao Tianyu. This guy didn’t even say a word of thanks?

However, seeing this, others were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred. In Ice Sea City, no one had ever received such treatment, and yet Xiao Tianyu took the handkerchief, wiped his mouth, and casually tossed it away.

Shouldn’t he have kept that handkerchief as a treasured item?

Especially Zhan Tian, whose gaze was filled with undisguised killing intent.

He communicated with Xiao Tianyu: "Do you think just stepping into the top five gives you the qualification to be prideful? What difference does it make even if you’re in the top three? Dead people are destined to be eliminated!"

Hmm?

Xiao Tianyu furrowed his brows slightly, having no enmity with Zhan Tian, why does Zhan Tian harbor such hatred and even want to kill him?

Of course, Xiao Tianyu is not foolish, and a quick thought revealed the reason for Zhan Tian’s animosity.

However, Xiao Tianyu paid no mind to it.

At this moment, the elder who managed the match spoke: "You have one hour to rest. After one hour, the ranking battles will begin again!"

Currently, Xiao Tianyu had just fought and got injured. Continuing now would be clearly unfair to him, so for fairness’s sake, the elder gives them an hour of rest.

Moreover, those in the bottom four seats like Yan Hai were also heavily injured, and therefore require a long period to recuperate.

As expected, the moment the elder’s words fell, Xiao Tianyu sat cross-legged, closing his eyes, evidently from the previous battle, his injuries weren’t light.

Mo Qingluan glanced discreetly at Xiao Tianyu with her cold eyes before moving away.

Below, people revealed looks of expectation. One hour later, the most exciting moment of this Wind and Cloud Banquet will arrive, and the top three will surface after this hour.

"Is the battle for the top three about to begin?" Hong Yiyi clenched her powdery fist, her clear beautiful eyes reflecting an uncontainable excitement.

Hong Yuan was filled with emotion. He never imagined Xiao Tianyu could go this far; you could say Xiao Tianyu participated in the Wind and Cloud Banquet with Divine Level Seventh Layer, defeating Liu Feng with one sword, and it was already a major miracle.

Yet now, Hong Yuan saw Xiao Tianyu’s splendor throughout the challenges, defeating various prodigies, finally becoming one of the top five worthy of admiration and even having a chance to compete for the top three.

"Top five, huh?" Su Mei’Er stood amidst the crowd, looking at Xiao Tianyu with a slight smile. Half a month ago, when she first met Xiao Tianyu at the Jade Tower, she thought he was just a conceited person.

But now, she couldn’t believe that Xiao Tianyu, this unknown figure, would sneak into the top five.

Su Mei’Er surveyed the top battle platform’s various strong figures and continued whispering: "This guy should stop here, right?"

Even if Xiao Tianyu stopped now, he already proved outstanding enough.

Divine Level Seventh Layer, breaking into the top five, without precedent and likely without successors.

An hour quickly passed, and sitting cross-legged there, Xiao Tianyu’s face showed a hint of rosiness, clearly indicating his injuries have mostly recovered, with a radiant spirit as he opened his eyes.

The elder managing the match looked at the bottom four and spoke faintly: "Next, is the ranking battle for the bottom four. Everyone has two chances. If both are lost, the ranking is set. Now it officially begins!"

Upon these words, Yan Hai, Zhuang Feiyan, Jun Qianqiu, and Li Qingyun all stepped onto the battle platform.
