Once I enter the pass, great Confucian scholars will surely debate the classics for me.

Huangfu Yunzheng stood with his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent: "Is there a problem?"

Upon hearing this, Shui Zheqian blushed with embarrassment on her pretty face. It wasn't that she hadn't fought Zhou Qingfeng before; she was truly no match for him, their combat abilities were on completely different levels.

If her combat power is 3000, then Zhou Qingfeng's combat power is at least 10000.

However, on rainy days, Shui Zheqian's combat power will instantly rise to an invincible level. While it's not certain that he can kill Zhou Qingfeng, it's not difficult for him to fight him to a standstill.

"Captain Huangfu, if we were at sea or in the rain, I'm absolutely certain Zhou Qingfeng couldn't kill me." Shui Zheqian didn't want to lose face in front of her sweetheart, so she could only bite the bullet and find a way out for herself.

Upon hearing this, Huangfu Yunzheng chuckled and shook his head, not wanting to contradict him: "It's about time."

As the words fell, red lines descended from the sky. One after another, red lines visible only to the contestants shot down from the sky, as if they were invisible threads passing through numerous obstacles and landing on the contestants' heads.

Within a hundred miles, the positions of all the contestants were completely exposed, leaving them nowhere to hide.

The final battle is about to begin!

The surviving team wanted to live and even more so, to turn the tide. They had already infiltrated a hundred miles away, maintaining a safe distance from the outermost immortal ships to avoid being discovered by the disguised team.

The Qingfeng Squad wanted to eliminate the Python Sparrow Squad, and the Python Sparrow Squad also wanted to eliminate the Qingfeng Squad. The two sides were incompatible and neither took the surviving squad, which was no longer a threat, seriously as a competitor.

"They've appeared!" Zhou Qingfeng and Huangfu Yunzheng's eyes flashed simultaneously. Even though they were dozens of miles apart, they could see the location and number of each other's teams, and even their faces.

Whether it's tens of miles or hundreds of miles, if there's no obstruction, for them, once something enters their field of vision, it's basically no different from face to face.

Zhou Qingfeng and Huangfu Yunzheng's gazes collided across the distance, like two bolts of lightning striking each other.

Zhou Qingfeng raised an eyebrow: "Huangfu Yunzheng?"

Huangfu Yunzheng's lips curled up slightly: "Zhou Qingfeng, it really is you."

The next second, Huangfu Yunzheng fell backward onto the deck, as if he had been instantly killed by an invisible and terrifying force. His expression was stiff, his eyes were empty, and there was still a smug smile on his face, as expected.

Shui Zheqian and the other five members of the Python Sparrow Squad were stunned by what they saw.

"Captain Huangfu!?"

"Captain Huangfu...is dead?!"

"Ah... how is this possible..." The team members were so terrified that their voices trembled. They could hardly believe that Huangfu Yunzheng, who had never lost a battle, was incredibly intelligent, and had always been able to easily lead them to the final battle.

That invincible captain was instantly killed by the opponent the moment his position was exposed.

How the hell did that?

That's absolutely outrageous!

Shui Zheqian's knees buckled, and he knelt on the ground. Incredulously, he reached out to touch Huangfu Yunzheng's chest, only to find that the heart had stopped beating and the body was devoid of life.

Her eyes widened in shock, and she knelt before Huangfu Yunzheng's corpse, clutching her head in terror. Her fingers intertwined in her hair as she cried out in disbelief, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"Captain Huangfu is dead, that's a fact." The vice-captain of the Python Sparrow Squad quickly calmed down, pulled Shui Zheqian up and said, "There's no time to mourn Captain Huangfu, otherwise, we'd be next to die."

These words quickly brought all members of the Python Sparrow Squad back to reality. Regardless of what means the enemy used to kill Captain Huangfu, it was already a fait accompli. In the upcoming battles, they could no longer rely on Captain Huangfu's wisdom and strength. They had to pull themselves together and find a way to fight back against the strangulation from the Green Peak Squad.

Shui Zheqian said in a panic, "Peng Jin, even someone as strong as Captain Huangfu was instantly killed. What else can we do? Let's run away. With our current score, as long as we get out alive, we will definitely be able to rank on the Heavenly Ranking."

Deputy Captain Peng Jin of the Python Sparrow said coldly, "We can't escape. If we do, Zhou Qingfeng can rightfully kill us as deserters. The Allied Forces might even send people to help capture and kill us. This is suicide."

"On the contrary, if we continue to stay among the allied forces, they will still have reservations and will not dare to attack us in public."

"So we can't run away, nor can we sit and wait for them to come and kill us."

"We should head to Zhou Qingfeng's main immortal ship immediately. There are three Heavenly Venerables on board. It won't be so easy for Zhou Qingfeng and his group to kill us."

"Moreover, we have a final trump card. The Myriad Manifestations Celestial Venerable has actually been controlled by Captain Huangfu. This is a trump card that the captain secretly hid before his death. The captain only told me about this secret trump card."

"The captain's intention was to prepare for any eventuality. No matter how dire the situation, this trump card would be enough to ensure that we could wipe out the enemy squad and guarantee our squad's final victory."

Upon hearing this, Shui Zheqian and the other four team members felt somewhat relieved.

"Let's go!" Peng Jin collected Captain Huangfu's body and put it into a storage bag. After all, the body couldn't be left on the deck unattended, otherwise, if the celestial beings on the immortal ship found it, they would also get into trouble.

Far away on the main immortal ship, Zhou Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he had hidden his trump card. The enemies who knew about his trump card had all been eliminated, so he was able to kill the enemy's most threatening captain, Huangfu Yunzheng, in the first instance.

Moreover, he was quite lucky, drawing a favorable result on his first try, as if the heavens were on his side.

If the Instant Death Demon Eye Technique is used in the arena, it will undoubtedly be anticipated and some people who are familiar with the Instant Death Demon Eye Technique will even take targeted countermeasures.

Breaking the Instant Death Mystic Eye Technique is actually quite simple.

As long as Zhou Qingfeng doesn't see it, he can't unleash his Instant Death Demon Eye Technique.

That's why Zhou Qingfeng kept the Instant Death Demon Eye Technique hidden in every way.

Now that the Instant Death Mystic Eye Technique has been used once, the remaining enemies will definitely be on guard. Even if given a little time, they will be able to deduce what technique was used and prepare a countermeasure.

"Holy crap!" Ye Tingxiu watched as the enemy captain, Huangfu Yunzheng, was instantly killed. He stared in shock, his eyes wide. "Old Zhou, what kind of technique did you use? Killing someone from a distance? That's awesome! I want to learn it too!"

Xiao Hongyun also had a "Holy crap" expression on his face: "This spell is too abnormal! Could it be the number one calamity-level spell, the Instant Death Demon Eye Technique, which is known as a spell that can kill enemies from a distance with a glare and instantly kill those of the same level?!"

"Instant Death Demon Eye Technique? Hiss..." Du Yanran, Duan Hongsu, and Tantai Minglan looked shocked and gasped in unison. Of course, the three women had heard of the reputation of the number one disaster-level technique.

It is said that this technique has a huge flaw: it is highly dependent on luck.

However, this does not diminish the power of this technique at all.

Because when I see you, you are already in a state where you could die at any moment.

In battles between opponents of the same level, no matter how extraordinary your abilities or unparalleled wisdom, you will have no chance to use them.

Witnessing the Instant Death Demon Eye Technique truly kill an enemy today has had a huge impact on the young minds of the three girls. It turns out that with good luck, one can indeed instantly kill a powerful enemy of the same level.

"So... the captain used the Instant Death Demon Eye Technique." Cheng Wuquan suddenly realized, his doubts dispelled. No wonder the captain hadn't shown up for so long last time. He was probably hiding in the shadows and killing the enemy captain instantly.

However, due to bad luck, the spell failed every time until the enemy captain was successfully killed. Later, Huo Luan died inexplicably, probably because the captain killed her from a distance.

Zhou Qingfeng nodded slightly in acknowledgment, since there was no need to hide anything from the team members now.

Xiao Hongyun suddenly pointed at the Python Sparrow squad flying over from a distance: "Captain, they actually dared to come over on their own!"

Ye Tingxiu frowned and gripped the 'Stay' sword at his waist: "The enemy captain is dead, have these people gone mad?"

"Don't get agitated. If they dare to make the first move in this situation, they're just asking for death." Zhou Qingfeng gestured for them to calm down, watching them fly over without worrying about them suddenly attacking and killing him.

No, he even hoped the other party would lose their mind and kill someone in a fit of rage. If the other party dared to do so, they would immediately be accused of murdering their comrade and be besieged and killed by a large number of celestial beings from the demon-slaying coalition.

Peng Jin and Shui Zheqian landed on the deck of the main immortal ship. They glanced at Zhou Qingfeng from several dozen steps away, but didn't say a word to him. Instead, they handed their tokens to the guards and explained their identities and purpose.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Qingfeng watched Peng Jin and his group enter the cabin.

Xiao Hongyun said, "Captain, they're walking right into our trap. We haven't even killed them yet, and they dare to offer themselves up. Should we chase after them and find a secluded spot to kill them quietly?"

Zhou Qingfeng pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Something's not right. Their captain was killed instantly. It's already quite remarkable that they didn't try to escape. They even dared to come looking for us. There's something fishy going on here."

Xiao Hongyun asked, "What's the problem?"

Zhou Qingfeng said calmly, "I don't know. The unknown is what's scary. I have reason to believe that Huangfu Yunzheng left them a backup plan that could wipe us out. Otherwise, they wouldn't dare to come looking for us."

"As for what this decisive contingency plan is, we lack the information to know."

Everyone was taken aback upon hearing this.

I thought that if I killed the enemy captain first, victory would be in my grasp, but I didn't expect there was still a risk of being wiped out.

They would not doubt Zhou Qingfeng's intelligence.

Since Zhou Qingfeng said that the enemy might have a backup plan to wipe out their entire squad, then they definitely will.

"Let's go. There's no use thinking about it now. Go down and keep an eye on them. See what they're up to."

After Zhou Qingfeng finished speaking, he immediately led his team members back down from the cabin.

This main immortal ship is no ordinary immortal ship. The fact that it can be called a ship means that it is not just big. Not only is the interior space huge, but it also has more than a thousand rooms and various leisure and entertainment facilities.

In the canteen of the immortal ship, many celestial generals who had taken off their armor and were resting had dinner there.

Peng Jin and Shui Zheqian, a group of six, picked up their meals and found a place to sit down and eat.

Zhou Qingfeng and his group also lined up to get their meals and sat down at the table diagonally opposite Peng Jin and the others. The two groups were only about ten steps apart, and Zhou Qingfeng was practically staring at them face to face, not afraid of Peng Jin and the others noticing at all.

Seeing this, Shui Zheqian was about to speak: "Peng Jin..."

Peng Jin interrupted first, gesturing with his hand: "Eat, don't talk."

Peng Jin lowered his head and ate his meal, tears streaming down his face. He remembered his private conversation with the captain yesterday.

"Peng Jin".

"Captain, what's going on?"

"If I were to meet Zhou Qingfeng, I might die."

"No, Captain Huangfu is invincible and has flawless strategies. No one can be your match."

"Consider it a trump card. If I lose to Zhou Qingfeng and am killed someday, you can use this trump card I'm leaving you to turn the tide and give Zhou Qingfeng a desperate counterattack."

"Captain, you're making it sound so real. Stop joking. Who in the world can kill you?"

"You always have to have a backup plan."

"Since the captain anticipated the possibility of death, let's not fight Zhou Qingfeng and just avoid him."

"Hehehe... Although I've become numb to winning, I still don't want to lose. If I intentionally avoid him, wouldn't that be admitting defeat? Even if I manage to snatch the top spot on the Heavenly Ranking, it wouldn't count as a win."

Peng Jin wiped away his tears. Although they had only spent a little over ten days together, he had been deeply impressed by Captain Huangfu's charm and regarded Captain Huangfu as a mentor he could rely on and trust for the rest of his life.

He firmly believed that by following Captain Huangfu, they would be invincible.

But the moment Zhou Qingfeng appeared, his beliefs were ruthlessly shattered into dust.

All he can do now is win for his captain, use the trump card left to him by his captain, fight a brilliant comeback, completely defeat Zhou Qingfeng, and wipe them out.

But he wasn't Captain Huangfu Yunzheng after all.

From the moment they arrived on the world stage, the entire team followed Huangfu Yunzheng's orders. They didn't need to use their brains; they just needed to do as instructed, and they were sure they could get things done.

Now that Peng Jin has suddenly been put in charge, he is really finding it a bit difficult.

He racked his brains frantically, trying to imagine himself as Huangfu Yunzheng, and how he would use the trump card of the Myriad Manifestations Celestial Venerable to turn the tide.

He gradually calmed down, as if he had found his rhythm. Various strategies quickly emerged in his mind, and soon a complete battle plan was already in place.

If this plan succeeds, it will be enough to plunge Zhou Qingfeng and his teammates into an abyss.

"Let's not eat anymore, let's go." Peng Jin didn't really come here to eat; he came because there were many people, and Zhou Qingfeng wouldn't bring anyone to fight. This relatively safe environment would give him enough time to think.

Shui Zheqian and his four teammates got up and followed Peng Jin away.

Peng Jin glanced back and said calmly, "The battle begins now. Don't ask any questions, just do as I say. I guarantee we can turn the tide. Alright, now listen to me..."

Zhou Qingfeng and his group mingled among the many celestial beings coming and going, closely monitoring the Python Sparrow Squad's every move.

Xiao Hongyun said, "Old Zhou, I feel more and more uneasy. They must be plotting something. It's obvious that this plot is aimed at us. We have to kill them before the plot is carried out."

Du Yanran said, "Captain, although I know that we should try to remain silent and follow orders at this time, I think Xiao Hongyun is right. Rather than passively waiting for unknown conspiracies and schemes, it is better to kill them in advance."

Ye Tingxiu, Cheng Wuquan, Duan Hongsu, and Tantai Minglan also felt uneasy. They could all keenly sense that danger was approaching. If the situation was allowed to develop unchecked, who knew what the outcome would be?

Zhou Qingfeng narrowed his eyes, not in a hurry to make a decision, and reached out to comfort him: "Don't rush, let me think about it!"
