With all these qualities, I will eventually become immortal.

Chapter 126 Encirclement Battle in the Ring of Fire, Showdown at the Peak

Meng Chuan thanked him, even though he could only take down these level 5 or 6 fighters with one punch each.

He appreciated the sentiment.

On the main road, the group came across the tomb of King Xiang, which was specially fenced off, with a large, eye-catching yellow sign above it:

[The mausoleum of King Xiang is off-limits to any use of force; any violation will result in immediate elimination.]

Meng Chuan stepped forward and bowed to the sage to express his remembrance.

The group then continued their ascent to the summit.

The outline of the summit gradually came into view, and the group rushed up the mountain like shooting stars.

[Those without a signpost, please stop here]

A staff member stepped forward and offered guidance.

Wang Hao slapped his forehead, only then remembering this, and said dejectedly:
"Brother Chen, Brother Meng, and Xiao Fei, we'll escort you this far. Good luck and get into the top three!"

Qi Fei couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Everyone ahead of me is an older brother, but when it's my turn, I'll be the little flying one."

After seeing the two off, Meng Chuan and the other two climbed to the top of the mountain.

Qi Fei spoke again:

"Brother Chuan'er, I'll draw their fire for you first. You find an opportunity to strike and cripple one of them first."

Meng Chuan thought for a moment and then offered words of comfort:
"The remaining four people on the mountaintop are all at the seventh level. They might as well admit defeat. Even a minor scratch would result in serious injury. It's not worth it."

He never intended to use Qi Fei as cannon fodder, firstly because the difference in strength was too great, and he wouldn't be of much use.

Brother Xuewu could certainly be a qualified cannon fodder.
Secondly, they are classmates, and Qi Fei has changed a lot recently. I was able to bring him up here unharmed, and I want him to come down the mountain unharmed as well.

Standing atop the mountain, Meng Chuan gazed into the distance, where the scenery was breathtaking.

The reason why Xiangwang Tomb was originally called Caixia Mountain is not because there were colorful clouds shining above it.

Instead, one stands atop the mountain, where sunlight streams down, creating a dazzling, shimmering effect like scattered gold.

Golden light spills across the rolling hills, as if the earth is stretching its spine. Mixed with the dense forest, it refracts colorful rays of light, creating a scene reminiscent of trying to catch the moon's reflection in water.

This scenery is like a dream, just like the magnificent sunset on the horizon!

Meng Chuan searched for his opponent's shadow on the mountain, only to see two extremely resentful figures behind the judges' table, as if they wanted to kill him with their eyes.

Meng Chuan shielded his eyes from the sunlight and then he could see that they were the two women he had eliminated.

"I don't know how those two even got up here to watch the game."

Looking at the resentment rushing towards him, Meng Chuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Women are still not to be trifled with."

On the judges' panel, Luo Meng turned around and calmly said:

"You two, tone it down. I brought you up here to learn, not to interfere with the players' performance."

Although Luo Meng is young, she is already a genius teacher at the United University.

Upon hearing the other party speak, Meng Jiaolong quickly composed herself.

Zheng Zhenzhen, who was standing to the side, was somewhat unconvinced, but seeing the cold eyes of the phoenix phantom behind Luo Meng, she quickly turned her head away.

As expected of Luo Guanyun's daughter, Luo Meng may complain about her father, but in reality, she has inherited his fine traditions.

Seeing the remaining four people resting and recuperating in their designated rest areas, Meng Chuan also set off to warm up and prepare for battle.

He glanced in the direction of the North Associated University.

The man named Zhao Jian was very strange. Whenever Zhao Jian looked away, the man would stare at him as if he were being monitored.

Xu Qingfeng, who was standing next to that person, also seemed quite abnormal.

He was covered with a blanket that he had taken out from somewhere, and he fell asleep immediately.

Meng Chuan secretly praised:

"Young people sleep well."

Ignore Zhao Jian's spying, remember it all, I'll beat him up later!
Meng Chuan stood to the side, closed his eyes, and regulated his breathing, repeatedly circulating the four hard-skill techniques in his mind to stimulate the acupoints.

Surrounded by enemies, being attacked was inevitable.

Judging from the attitudes of Yan Hua and the other two, they also consider Xu Qingfeng and themselves to be formidable rivals.

He would occasionally glance at Xu Qingfeng, who was sleeping, and then look at his own location.

The break passed in the blink of an eye. Bai Junfeng glanced at the time, stood tall like an eagle, and with a whoosh, appeared in the center of the mountaintop.

"The final battle is about to begin! Ahem, you sleeping contestant, wake up!"

Xu Qingfeng opened his sleepy eyes and slowly got up.

His figure unfolded like a scroll painting, graceful and ethereal, as he landed lightly on the giant arena that had been set up.

At this moment, the two female judges, due to their common enemy, had become inseparable and were chatting enthusiastically.

Meng Jiaolong pointed at Xu Qingfeng's figure and teased:
"Zhenzhen, did you see that? This is the king of cool in our class."

"He could have gone to class one, but he insisted that class one was too competitive and wanted to stay in our class two."

Zheng Zhenzhen nodded in agreement. As a master of the Tiger Form, she couldn't help but itch to fight when she saw Xu Qingfeng's pathetic appearance.

"Sister, you're right. Bringing a blanket to a competition, that's really showing off!"

Meng Jiaolong then said:

"Don't let his appearance fool you, he can help us get revenge and teach that Meng Chuan a lesson."

"Really?"

Zheng Zhenzhen was skeptical; in her opinion, Yan Hua and the other two were no match for Meng Chuan.

"Is Xu Qingfeng really that capable?"

As a descendant of the Heavenly King, it's one thing for her to lose to the Quadrilateral Warrior by a single move, but this birdman dares to ride roughshod over her.

Meng Jiaolong deliberately kept everyone in suspense:

"You'll see when the fight starts."

Before the competition even started, Qi Fei immediately conceded defeat and sat behind the judges' panel to watch the competition.

The two women transferred their resentment towards Meng Chuan to him, and Qi Fei felt a chill in his heart.

"Why does it feel so cold on such a hot day?" Xiangwang Tomb Peak Arena.

Meng Chuan moved, using the ladder beneath his feet to propel him onto the arena.

Chen Xuewu followed closely onto the stage, and after standing still, he was still a little puzzled.

Seeing that there were no ropes to cover them, they didn't know how to determine a loss and elimination.

Once all the contestants have entered the competition venue.

Just then, Yin Tianshou stood up from the judges' panel.

With a flick of his sleeve, flames erupted around the arena, startling everyone into moving closer to the center.

Bai Junfeng flashed through the sea of ​​fire and appeared in the center of the arena, explaining:

"This is the fire that Venerable Yin conjured. If your body falls outside the circle, you will be eliminated."

Meng Chuan watched this scene with a solemn expression.

"So this is the [Karmic Fire Candle Dragon] trait? It's truly impressive."

He guessed in his heart:
"Only those at the Breakthrough Martial Arts True Skill level or above have the chance to unlock such a powerful trait, and it's incredibly cool."

In terms of their effects, Meng Chuan felt that Yizheng Yongzheng and Nirvana Huahong were definitely much stronger than the other party, one being a Da Luo quality and the other an immortal body.

But from the perspective of aggression and showing off, he was indeed far inferior to his opponent.
After a moment of envy, Meng Chuan regained his composure and continued listening to Bai Junfeng explain the rules.

"At the same time, during the competition, Venerable Yin's fire circle will gradually shrink over time."

If the match goes down to the wire, only one person will remain standing to determine the final champion.

In the arena.

Xu Qingfeng remained extremely casual, while Zhao Jian peered around him from behind, like a venomous snake waiting for its chance to strike.

He planned to use his superior agility to paddle around the perimeter of the field first.

"I must complete both of Lord Jing's tasks."

The seed within him yearns for nourishment.

After Meng Chuan understood the rules, he felt relieved.

"This is to my advantage; it's a contest of endurance!"

After calming himself down, he looked around and observed the situation.

"The remaining two Yan Hua members are not a big threat, so I eliminated the strongest one, Hu Niu, ahead of time."

The United Nations should not be underestimated; Zhao Jian's brief display of skill suggests he's no pushover either.

If Yan Hua is willing to join me in attacking the United Nations University first, then our chances of winning are very high. However, if the two of them attack me together...

Meng Chuan glanced at Chen Xuewu beside him.

Chen Xuewu understood.

"Brother Meng, I will try my best to help you restrain him."

The entire arena is at the seventh level of the Transformation Realm, and Chen Xuewu has no chance of winning!

"I beg you, Brother Chen, if four of them attack me, please do your best to help me deal with them."

With Venerable Yin, who is in the fifth stage of life, around, there's no need to worry about any life-threatening danger. However, Chen Xuewu might suffer some physical pain.
Just then, Bai Junfeng let out a loud, sharp cry:
"The competition begins. Please demonstrate your skills!"

On the arena, no one dared to make a move when the command was given.

The people standing there almost represented the highest teaching level in Yong'an City. No one was an absolute weakling, not even Chen Xuewu from the Sixth Pass!

Meng Chuan secretly mustered his strength and exerted it, using his iron hands, iron feet, and iron shirt, plus his armor-clad skills.

All four hard qigong techniques are in full swing!

Seeing the heavy atmosphere, Xu Qingfeng broke the silence.

He waved to Meng Chuan and smiled:

"Brother Meng, how about we send Yan Hua away first, and then have a fair fight?"

Or someone else might be thinking about forming alliances and counter-alliances.

First, unite with others to eliminate the person who poses the greatest threat to you.

But Xu Qingfeng is different; he has his own unique logic of behavior.

That means doing whatever makes you feel good!
Hearing Xu Qingfeng's voice from behind the judges' panel, Zheng Zhenzhen glared angrily at the "King of Pretentiousness".

"That bastard, why does he have to eliminate Yan Hua's people first?"

Meng Jiaolong shrugged, indicating that she was not surprised at all.

"That's just Xu Qingfeng's nature; you can never figure out what he's thinking."

Zheng Zhenzhen had now transferred her resentment from Meng Chuan to Xu Qingfeng.

Before Meng Chuan could reply, Xu Qingfeng, like a startled swan, swiftly rushed towards Yan Hua and the other two.

As he charged forward, he was also calculating in his mind:

"Take out Yan Hua and the other one first, then Chen Xuewu, and finally Meng Chuan, who looks the most imposing, and you'll win perfectly."

"Oh dear, I forgot about Zhao Jian. But that treacherous fellow is fine, as long as he doesn't interfere with our final battle."

This is what makes Xu Qingfeng so abnormal; as a student of the United Nations University, he doesn't analyze things from the perspective of the university's interests.

He does whatever comes to mind without considering whether it's appropriate or not.

Faced with the sudden appearance of Xu Qingfeng, Yan Hua and his companion were both surprised and furious.

"You son of a bitch, Xu Qingfeng, you're insane!"

The two had already agreed that Chen Xuewu from the sixth round was not a threat, and that they would eliminate Meng Chuan, the biggest dark horse in this joint examination, first.

Xu Qingfeng's actions left the two speechless.

At the same time, Meng Chuan listened to Xu Qingfeng's advice and did not disappoint him.

"I understand, Brother Xu. We must send Yan Hua away first!"

With that, Meng Chuan charged toward Zhao Jianbao of the North Union University!

"Holy crap, this guy is even more despicable and shameless!"
