Chapter 351

The entire Flowing Cloud Mountains' audience was ignited by the battle between Chen Yu and Duan Xinyue.

From their point of view, Chen Yu was definitely at a disadvantage against Duan Xinyue.

However, not only had Chen Yu displayed great strength, but he had also used a strategy and unique method to obtain victory. This was truly a huge surprise to everyone, and their jaws dropped to the ground.

But there were some who were dissatisfied with Chen Yu's techniques and started to criticize him.

"This kid is too cunning. Furthermore, he actually went against Xinyue's position. What a rogue."

"That's right. Chen Yu is too despicable. He used tricks to win."

Most of these criticisms were from Duan Xinyue's admirers.

They hated Chen Yu so much in their hearts that they gritted their teeth. They didn't have any intimate contact with Duan Xinyue, but Chen Yu took advantage of her.

From afar, Ye Luofeng had a resentful expression as she stared at Chen Yu, "Indeed a shameless and despicable person!"

Other than that, there were also some elite experts who were carefully sizing up Chen Yu.

After all, Chen Yu's rise meant that the competition for the top twelve had become even more intense.

"Junior brother is indeed capable. But this time, he must have angered Duan Xinyue."

Yuan Chen let out a faint laugh.

Yun Haizhen and Ye Chengfeng also took a few more glances at Chen Yu.

All this while, Chen Yu had constantly entered their sights. But this time, it was the one that caught their attention the most.

But they still didn't pay much attention to it.

Among the top students of the four major colleges, Duan Xinyue was the weakest and had broken through to the Origin Realm the latest. But Chen Yu still used tricks to win against Duan Xinyue.

No matter what.

On stage number four, there were two students with twenty-two winning streaks. They were Chen Yu and Duan Xinyue. But with the end of this battle, Chen Yu became the only student with twenty-two winning streaks and was ranked first in the group!

Outside the stage, Duan Xinyue was extremely angry. Her face was flushed red and she wanted to rush up the stage to spar with Chen Yu.

However, this was the Academy Tournament, and the higher-ups of the four academies were all here. If she did not follow the rules, she would lose the right to compete.

"Chen Yu, I underestimated you previously and was careless. You won't be so lucky in the finals!"

Duan Xinyue glared at Chen Yu fiercely before walking to the side.

Although she had lost this battle, she was not at all convinced.

Both Chen Yu and her would enter the finals. At that time, she would not be careless anymore. She would defeat Chen Yu in one fell swoop and regain her face.

When the commotion gradually died down, Luo Haotian, who stood a short distance away, was still staring at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu was able to clash head-on with Duan Xinyue, but in this aspect, he was slightly inferior.

However, at this moment, he was more concerned about the bloodline that Chen Yu had just unleashed, which made him think of something.

"The competition continues, Yu Hong against Huang Hu!"

The referee shouted.

As the next round of battle progressed, the discussion about the battle between Chen Yu and Duan Xinyue quickly died down.

To be able to stand on this stage, which one of them wasn't an elite prodigy of the Yunzhao Nation?

Below the stage, Chen Yu sat cross-legged calmly with his eyes closed.

The battle with Duan Xinyue had given him great enlightenment. After all, this was his first battle with an Origin Realm expert.

During the battle, Chen Yu's Secret Pattern Demonic Body was honed and became even stronger.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, he comprehended and cultivated at the same time.

"Ye Chengfeng, Yun Haizhen, and Shixiong should all be stronger than Duan Xinyue!"

Chen Yu thought to himself.

During the battle with Duan Xinyue, Chen Yu felt that the most troublesome thing was that Duan Xinyue's qi was too strong, much stronger than the qi of the demonic patterns.

Although Chen Yu had half-step qi, he didn't have much and couldn't afford a long battle.

This was also the reason why Chen Yu didn't expose his half-step qi in the previous battle.

Now, Chen Yu was circulating the secret technique imparted by the Scarlet Flame Emperor to condense his half-step qi. At the same time, he was circulating the mental cultivation method in the Sky Devil Secret Pattern Record to increase his qi cultivation.

During the trial, Chen Yu had consumed many precious herbs. After entering the ancient ruins, he had gained a lot of enlightenment. Now that he had experienced a series of intense battles, Chen Yu's cultivation had also been stimulated.

Especially during this battle, Chen Yu felt that his cultivation had improved slightly.

On top of a few mountain peaks.

The Heavenly Star Academy's lady frowned slightly. Her dignified face revealed a trace of dissatisfaction.

Duan Xinyue was the number one in the Heavenly Star Academy, but she was defeated by someone who was ranked in the top ten of the Demonic Academy. This caused the Heavenly Star Academy to lose face.

"Vice Principal Yi, if I'm not wrong, this disciple of yours seems to have an extremely powerful bloodline … …"

The white-browed old man from the Heavenly Sword Academy asked.

Chen Yu's Dragon Scale bloodline gave him a feeling that it was more powerful than the bloodlines of the ten great ancient clans!

Otherwise, the white-browed old man wouldn't have noticed Chen Yu's bloodline.

After all, this ancient country was vast and abundant. There were not only the ten great ancient clans that had academies. There were also many different bloodlines, but most of them had a low concentration.

"Yes … …"

Yi Lantian answered very simply.

He only knew that Chen Yu had a special physique, but he didn't expect Chen Yu to have the power of bloodline.

Suddenly, Yi Lantian realized that when he told Chen Yu to participate in the academy competition, he only needed to enter the top fifty.

However, Chen Yu had made it to the top twelve, and his final ranking would not be too far behind.

This made him look forward to this disciple even more.

The man in the golden cloud robe also carefully observed Chen Yu. He was very interested in Chen Yu's bloodline.

As everyone knew, the Yun family also belonged to the ten great ancient clans, but they were willing to take the initiative to absorb new bloodlines and reproduce.

… …

On the four arenas, the battles continued.

Occasionally, there would be a few exciting battles.

Duan Hao, the genius of the Demonic Academy, was also extremely powerful. His cultivation was at the late Connate stage, but he could fight with a peak Connate expert.

Bang!

Duan Hao punched and kicked. His attacks were crazy and ferocious. An invisible evil aura rose, as if there was a ferocious tiger behind him.

However, his opponent was equally powerful. He was a peak Connate student from the Yunyang Academy.

As the saber light danced, it intertwined with Duan Hao's punches and kicks, tearing each other apart.

"Duan Hao, you're no match for me!"

"It's too early for you to say that …"

Duan Hao let out a roar.

At the same time, he activated the power of his bloodline. A layer of black wind patterns appeared on the surface of his skin, clearer and more obvious than before.

Duan Hao's speed greatly increased by activating his bloodline. Moreover, the power of his bloodline was compatible with his cultivation technique, which increased his power significantly.

Boom! Bang!

Duan Hao launched a round of crazy and rapid attacks, which shocked his opponent.

The evil wind saber light dissipated, and his opponent had already fallen.

"Duan Hao wins."

As the voice rang out, Duan Hao also lay down with his head raised.

He had done his best in this battle. It could be said that he had performed extraordinarily well.

"Chen Yu, I must catch up with you …"

Duan Hao clenched his fists and said.

The battle between Chen Yu and Duan Xinyue could be said to have completely stimulated him, making him realize that there was such a big gap between him and Chen Yu.

Of course, he was not the only one who was stimulated by Chen Yu.

Wu Heng, the genius from the Yunyang Academy who participated in the tournament for the first time, was also stimulated. He became overflowing with fighting spirit and was extremely crazy.

Before the tournament, Wu Heng met Chen Yu in the Devil Bone Wasteland and said that he would compete with Chen Yu in the tournament.

Although he had not had a chance, the battle between Chen Yu and Duan Xinyue had already shown that he could not be a match for Chen Yu.

On the other side, Ye Luofeng also became more serious. A strong fighting spirit arose in her, and she waved the sword in her hand stubbornly and tenaciously.

The tournament continued.

Chen Yu was not disturbed at all.

After all, he had defeated Duan Xinyue. Although it was a bit of a trick, he had also displayed the strength to fight head-on with Duan Xinyue.

On the fourth stage, the other people treated Chen Yu and Duan Xinyue as the strongest fighting strength, and they could only look up to them.

Therefore, when it was Chen Yu's turn to fight, his opponent immediately admitted defeat.

Therefore, Chen Yu could be considered to be calm as he cultivated by the side.

Perhaps it was the stimulation from the tournament, but the effect of Chen Yu's cultivation was not bad. His half-step True Origin Energy had increased by quite a bit.

Finally, along with the end of the last battle on the fourth arena.

The fourth stage's ranking was decided.

But only the top three could enter the finals.

First place: Chen Yu.

Second place: Duan Xinyue.

Third place: Lv Qiuling.

This was undoubtedly the most unexpected ranking. Chen Yu occupied the position that should have been Duan Xinyue's.

Furthermore, Lv Qiuling's azure eagle was still there. Adding on her own strength, no one was a match for her, so she obtained the third position.

Immediately after, the second stage's ranking was announced.

First place: Yuan Chen.

Second place: Tang Mo.

Third place: Lu Fan.

Among them, Tang Mo might be at the peak stage of the Xiantian Realm, but he was extremely strong and had the ability to challenge an Origin Realm expert. He exchanged over fifty moves with Yuan Chen before being defeated.

As for Lu Fan, he was ranked second in the Sky Sword Academy. There was no dispute that he obtained the third position.

Right at this moment, on the first stage, a dazzling golden flame radiated in all directions.

The one who stepped up was Yun Yang Academy's number one, Yun Haizhen.

His opponent was Luo Haotian, who was ranked second in the Demon-Free Academy.

Facing Yun Haizhen, even Luo Haotian felt a boundless pressure. His body and mind seemed to be suffering a torment.

Seeing that Luo Haotian didn't admit defeat, Yun Haizhen's eyes narrowed as he took out a golden sword with dragon engravings.

Instantly, Yun Haizhen's aura surged.

"Slash!"

Yun Haizhen's True Origin Energy surged as his sword glowed with a dazzling flame radiance. Everyone couldn't help but focus their attention on it.

"Luo Fire Protection!"

Luo Haotian's eyes trembled as he activated the power of his bloodline. Both his palms released a layer of black and white flame, which gathered on the surface of his body and formed a black and white flame barrier.

Furthermore, Luo Haotian integrated the White True Fire into his defense.

Right at this moment, a golden sword light that was over ten feet long slashed down.

Crack!

Instantly, a crack appeared on the barrier around Luo Haotian. Gold, black, and white flames shot out in all directions.

In the next moment, the golden sword light swept across and shattered the flame barrier.

Pfff!

Luo Haotian was blasted out of the stage as he spat out a mouthful of blood. There was a scorch mark on his chest. If it wasn't for the protection of the supreme grade artifact armor, his injuries would have been more severe and he wouldn't be able to participate in the following matches.

One sword to defeat the number two in the Demon-Free Academy!

This kind of strength was shocking.

In the Demon-Free Academy, Luo Haotian could fight against Yuan Chen for a short period of time.

Even Lv Qiuling from the Heavenly Star Academy could fight against Duan Xinyue.

But against Yun Haizhen, Luo Haotian was defeated in one sword.

Even Duan Xinyue, who was on stage four, looked at Yun Haizhen with a solemn expression.

Subsequently, the ranking for stage one was announced.

First place: Yun Haizhen.

Second place: Luo Haotian.

Third place: Zhou Yuning.

Not long after, the battles on stage three also came to an end.

First place: Ye Chengfeng.

Second place: Yin Chengzhuang.

Third place: Luo Qiuman.

Just like that, the top twelve of the finals were decided.
