Chapter 721

The sudden appearance of a young man caused everyone to turn around in confusion.

The young man had a faint smile on his face. After entering, he cupped his fists towards Zi Chen and said, "I didn't know that Pavilion Master Zi Chen was celebrating today. Lv Peng came back a bit late, which is really a sin. Why don't I atone for my sins by participating in the third battle?"

Seeing Lv Peng arrive, Zi Chen smiled, but his heart ached. Seeing Lv Peng reminded him of Elder Mo.

Zi Chen nodded and said, "Alright then. You will fight in the third match. But remember, this is only a competition for entertainment. Do not hurt anyone."

"Yes, Pavilion Master." Lu Peng cupped his fists and took the lead to step onto the platform.

"Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's Lv Peng? I've never heard of such a person."

"That's right. He seems to be a nobody, but judging from Pavilion Master Zi Chen's expression, he seems to be very sure that he will win."

"How can an early Primal Core cultivator defeat a late Primal Core cultivator? Who does he think he is? Pavilion Master Zi Chen?"

Seeing Lv Peng on the stage, discussions broke out all around.

"Zi Chen, can Lv Peng win?"

At the side, Shangguan Yue 'er couldn't help but send a voice transmission to Lv Peng. She was worried for Lv Peng. After all, Lv Peng's attainments in Spirit Arrays were not bad, but he was not good at fighting.

"We'll definitely win." Zi Chen appeared extremely confident.

Having obtained all of Elder Hiroshi's legacy in array formations, coupled with decades of mastery, and even being able to build his own teleportation array formation, the current Lv Peng was no longer the same as before. He had become a freakish array master.

For the third battle, the Zhou Clan's expert was sent out. The other party did not care about the Heavenly Barbarian Pavilion's reputation, nor did they lower their guard because Lv Peng was in the early stage of the Primal Core Realm. The Zhou Clan sent out a late stage Primal Core Realm expert with a high-quality elixir weapon.

They had come prepared.

"Begin." This time, it was Zi Chen who spoke. His voice was extremely calm.

The battle began. The Zhou Clan's Dan Yuan rushed towards Lv Peng with his Dan Weapon and smashed it towards him.

With a loud bang, Lv Peng was smashed into pieces, but it was only an illusion. The real Lv Peng had already flashed to the other side of the platform.

Just as Zhou Danyuan turned around, he saw many array flags floating above Lv Peng's head. The thought that Lv Peng was an array master flashed across his mind.

So what if he was an Array Master? Although he was a little mysterious, there was still a difference of two realms between them. He was confident that he could defeat his opponent.

However, before the Zhou Clan's Dan Yuan could attack a second time, Lv Peng's hand seals were completed. The array flags above his head danced, forming a magic array. A terrifying aura began to spread out.

Due to the formation of the formation, the entire battle stage instantly became hazy. Everyone could only hear the sounds of energy vibrations through the energy barrier. As for what was happening inside, no one could see.

Everyone at the banquet was guessing who would win this battle. In their hearts, the late-stage Primal Core cultivator of the Zhou Clan had a higher chance of winning.

The energy explosion lasted for half an hour before it suddenly stopped. The hazy light on the battle stage also slowly dissipated. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the battle stage. When the hazy light completely disappeared, everyone's faces were filled with shock.

Originally, there were two people on the battle stage, but now there was only one person left. That person was still lying on the ground, motionless, as if he had fainted.

After waiting for a while, the other person slowly got up. The one who got up was the Zhou Clan's Dan Yuan, and the one who disappeared was the Heavenly Man Pavilion's Lv Peng.

At this moment, the Zhou Clan's Dan Yuan's clothes were tattered, as if they were strips of cloth hanging on his body. Although there were no wounds on his body, his hair was disheveled and his face was dirty. He was in a very sorry state.

The winner of this battle could be seen at a glance. The early-stage Primal Core Lv Peng had defeated the late-stage Primal Core Zhou Clan's Dan Yuan. He had defeated an opponent who was two realms above him.

Such a battle record was shocking. However, everyone was most concerned about where Lv Peng had gone and when he had disappeared.

Just as everyone revealed a puzzled expression, Lv Peng's voice rang out beside Zi Chen. "Everyone, the Heavenly Man Pavilion should be considered the winner of this battle."

This was Lv Peng's voice. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that Lv Peng was already standing in front of Zi Chen. Not only was he unharmed, but he was also spotless.

Looking at Lv Peng, everyone's eyes widened as if they had seen a ghost. They did not understand how Lv Peng had left the light shroud without warning. One had to know that they had been staring at the light shroud previously.

However, no matter how hard they racked their brains, they could not figure it out. Furthermore, this was not the time to delve into it.

Just as the Zhou Clan's Dan Yuan retreated, Shangguan Feilin stood up again and said, "The Heavenly Man Pavilion is indeed full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons. In the three battles, the Heavenly Man Pavilion has one win, one draw, and one loss. However, I wonder who will be sent for the fourth battle."

Then, he glanced around and said, "It's the Wei Clan's turn for the fourth battle."

This time, before Zi Chen could speak, a cold voice was heard from outside. "I'll take this battle."

Outside the door again. Everyone was very puzzled. They had released their spiritual senses earlier, but there was nothing there.

A tall figure walked in from outside. It was the Devil Ape. Almost everyone present had seen the Devil Ape before, so no one would treat it as an ancient beast in such an occasion. As for the scene in the ancient beast world, it was purely intentional.

"I'll take this battle."

After the Devil Ape finished speaking, he did not even wait for Zi Chen's agreement and walked directly to the battle platform. It was obvious how eager he was to fight.

Zi Chen smiled. The return of Lv Peng and the Devil Ape was completely out of his expectations. However, he had to admit that the two of them had returned in time and saved the Heavenly Man Pavilion's face at this crucial moment.

The Devil Ape walked up to the battle platform, and the surrounding people looked at each other. This was the Devil Ape, also known as the Sky Splitting Battle Ape. He was extremely powerful, but didn't he leave the Heavenly Man Pavilion a long time ago to train? Why did he suddenly return?

When Zi Chen established the Heavenly Man Pavilion and made a name for himself in the Land of Chaos, his friends who fought alongside him also had extraordinary reputations. Among these people, the Devil Ape was one of the top few.

To the cultivators outside, the Devil Ape's combat power was extraordinary. He was not weaker than Zi Chen at all. Now that the Devil Ape was also in the early stage of the Primal Core Realm, his combat power was comparable to Zi Chen's. No one in the Primal Core Realm could suppress him.

"Why is no one coming?" the Devil Ape asked coldly after waiting on the battle platform for a long time and seeing that no one had come up.

"Let me." A cultivator in the late stage of the Primal Core Realm from the Wei Clan, who was extremely confident in his combat power, flashed into the battle platform.

Knowing that the Devil Ape's combat power was not weak, he decided to make the first move. As soon as he arrived on the battle platform, he attacked the Devil Ape with his premium elixir weapon.

Black light surged in the Devil Ape's hand, and a black rod appeared, blocking the attack.

"Peng!"

With a loud bang, waves of energy spread out and the battle platform shook. The Devil Ape, who had taken the attack, stood motionless on the spot, but the Wei Clan's Primal Core Realm cultivator was forced back a few steps.

The Wei Clan's Primal Core Realm cultivator's expression changed. He was about to attack again with his elixir weapon, but at this moment, the Devil Ape, who had blocked his attack, had already attacked.

The Devil Ape's attack was relatively simple. He only held the black rod and smashed it with all his might.

"Peng!"

The first attack caused the Wei Clan's Primal Core Realm cultivator to retreat a few steps. The second attack caused the Wei Clan's Primal Core Realm cultivator's blood to churn. He resisted the urge to cough up blood.

However, when the Devil Ape's third attack landed, the powerful rebound force caused the Wei Clan's Primal Core Realm cultivator to cough up blood. Then, the Devil Ape's fourth attack landed.

Each attack of the Devil Ape was more ferocious than the previous one. When the fourth attack landed, the black rod seemed to have transformed into a black dragon, colliding with the premium elixir weapon in the Wei Clan's Primal Core Realm cultivator's hand.

Although the Wei Clan's Primal Core Realm cultivator was not allowed to kill, that was only relative to the cultivator.

Therefore, when the Devil Ape's fourth attack landed, the elixir weapon in the Wei Clan's Primal Core Realm cultivator's hand directly exploded with a bang. The Wei Clan's Primal Core Realm cultivator's body was directly smashed into the light barrier, causing it to tremble.

After the fourth attack, the Devil Ape put away the rod and left the battle platform as the light barrier dispersed.

The entire banquet was dead silent.

Four attacks had destroyed a premium elixir weapon and defeated a late-stage Primal Core Realm cultivator. While the crowd was shocked by the Devil Ape's strength, they also felt pity for the Wei Clan.

A premium elixir weapon was destroyed just like that.

Everyone was still in shock and did not say a word. The Wei Clan cultivators who had come this time were even more heartbroken over the broken elixir weapon.

Shangguan Feilin's expression was extremely ugly. His original intention was to make the Heavenly Man Pavilion suffer. However, these people had suddenly returned. It seemed that he did not see them suffer. Instead, it made people even more fearful of the Heavenly Man Pavilion.

"The Heavenly Man Pavilion has won the fourth battle. Currently, there are two wins, one loss, and one draw. As for the fifth battle, I will participate. It seems that only the Chen family is left among the five forces. The Chen family will fight."

Just as the banquet was in dead silence, a voice suddenly rang out to make a conclusion for the crowd.

After the conclusion was made, the crowd only saw a blur before their eyes. A figure had already appeared in the battle platform.

It was a bald monk in a monk's robe. His body was emitting a golden light. The moment the crowd saw the bald monk, they naturally recognized him.

It was Evil Good Monk, another powerful warrior of the Heavenly Man Pavilion.

The monk's combat power was already very strong. However, now that he was releasing the aura of a mid-stage Primal Core cultivator, everyone's expression changed.

It seemed that even Pavilion Leader Zi Chen could not suppress a monk of such a level. Who would dare to fight a monk in such a situation?

The Chen family? It seemed that they did not dare to.

"There is still one battle left. Where is the Chen family?" The monk stood on the battle platform and shouted loudly.

"The powerful warriors of the Heavenly Man Pavilion have all returned. The Chen family admits defeat," the leader of the Chen family said.

Under such circumstances, admitting defeat was a wise move. No one mocked the Chen family. This was because it seemed that no one in the Primal Core Realm dared to challenge Evil Good Monk other than those who had attained the Great Attainment of the Primal Core Realm.

Since the Chen family had admitted defeat, the Heavenly Man Pavilion had won the five battles.

This was an extremely good ending. However, the monk seemed to be a little dissatisfied. He turned his head to look at Shangguan Feilin and said, "Shangguan Feilin, this suggestion seems to be made by you. If we don't fight the last battle, it will not be exciting. Why don't you come up and we can learn from each other?"

Shangguan Feilin's expression was a little twisted when he was called by his name. However, he did not think that he was a match for the monk.

"Why? Are you scared? Don't worry, we are just learning from each other. It's not a battle to the death. We are just putting on a show," the monk said.

"Humph, I'm not interested." Shangguan Feilin snorted coldly. In the end, he did not agree.
