Lu Lingxi Yao lightly leaped onto the stage, her appearance once again igniting the climax of the competition. Even the referee next to her was so excited that he could hardly contain himself.

The members of the Gale Mercenary Group had extremely gloomy faces. The defeats in the first two matches were like two sharp knives, deeply wounding their pride and ego. Their morale had plummeted to rock bottom. Now, apart from a Seven-Star Martial Emperor, it would be very difficult to turn the tide in the later matches. If they lost this time, the match would truly be over.

The Seven-Star Martial Emperor of the Gale Mercenary Group slowly leaped onto the arena, his expression as gloomy as water, his eyes flashing with complex emotions.

They were initially full of confidence, thinking that with the strength of three Martial Emperors, they could easily win the match. However, they did not expect to lose so badly. The members of the Blazing Flame Mercenary Group not only greatly increased their strength, but also had the help of a divine artifact. Now there are only three matches left. If they win this match, they will still have a chance to correct the score. If they lose, they will face relegation.

The Seven-Star Martial Emperor of the Gale Mercenary Group unleashed a surge of powerful martial energy from his body, which swirled around him.

"Boy, you're just a mere Spirit Sect Master, yet you dare to presume to fight me, a Seven-Star Martial Emperor? You're simply overestimating yourself!"

Lu Lingxi stood still like a pine tree, a faint yet mysterious smile on her lips. In her hand, she gently clenched her fist in the air, and a cold, gleaming longsword appeared out of thin air. The blade shimmered with a cold, eerie blue light, as if it could freeze people's hearts.

The audience below the stage, witnessing this scene, cast surprised glances and whispered among themselves, discussing the matter animatedly.

"Huh? That young man is going to use a sword? But isn't he supposed to be a spiritual cultivator?"

"Could it be that he is a martial arts genius?"

The Martial Emperor expert from the Gale Mercenary Group merely snorted contemptuously upon seeing this, his eyes filled with disdain and contempt: "Hmph, you think you can impress me with just a sword? Dual cultivation of spirit and martial arts has been a taboo since ancient times. Don't think you can get away with this."

Before he finished speaking, his figure suddenly accelerated, like a ghost, and his fist, carrying the power to shake mountains and rivers, slammed towards Lu Lingxi Yao. The fist wind was fierce, as if it could tear space apart, which was shocking.

However, facing this attack that could shake mountains, Lu Lingxi Yao appeared unusually calm. She nimbly moved to the side and skillfully dodged it at an incredible angle. At the same time, she swung her sword backhand, the sword light as thin and sharp as a dragon emerging from the sea, aiming straight for the opponent's vitals.

This sword strike, named "Shadow Dragon Slash," is a supreme technique in the Flying Snow Swordplay that achieves the ultimate in speed and precision. Though it is unassuming, it conceals deadly intent.

Although the Seven Star Martial Emperor was shocked, he remained calm and took the attack head-on with his profound cultivation. The two collided with a deafening roar that shook the earth and sent dust flying.

As the battle intensified, Lu Lingxi Yao knew that a head-on confrontation was unwise, so she began to use her agile and graceful movements to maneuver around the Seven Star Martial Emperor and find an opening.

The Seven Star Martial Emperor, with his absolute power advantage, pressed forward relentlessly, each strike enough to shatter the soul of an ordinary martial artist.

At the critical moment, after a brilliant dodge, Lu Lingxi Yao's body suddenly expanded, as if resonating with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. A mysterious power that surpassed her current realm awakened within her body—this was the half-step domain power that she had unexpectedly comprehended during her secluded cultivation. Although unstable, it was enough to make her strength soar in a short period of time.

With the help of this mysterious power, Lu Lingxi Yao launched a fatal attack. The sword light transformed into a thousand-meter-long dragon, carrying a world-destroying momentum, completely enveloping the Seven Star Martial Emperor.

Although the Seven Star Martial Emperor tried his best to resist, he eventually revealed a flaw under Lu Lingxi Yao's sudden and powerful counterattack. He was pierced through the chest by a sword, his vital energy was greatly damaged, and he collapsed in defeat. The dust settled on the arena.

The battle finally came to an end. Lu Lingxi stood proudly on the arena, her clothes swaying gently in the wind, slightly disheveled but adding to her unruly air.

The surrounding audience, whether they were highly skilled elders or inexperienced youths, fell into a deep silence until the referee's voice rang out again, bringing them back to their senses.

"In the third match, Blaze wins!"

"That young man is not only a martial arts practitioner, but his strength has actually reached the Martial Emperor realm. What's even more unbelievable is that he was able to defeat a high-level Martial Emperor with low-level strength! Who once asserted that one cannot have both spiritual and martial arts paths?" Someone whispered in the crowd.

Meanwhile, in the spectator area of ​​the Gale Mercenary Group, Wu Haotian, Zhang Laosan, and Black Blade seemed to be frozen in that moment. Their bodies were stiff, their faces were distorted, and a wave of shock and frustration washed over them.

Their mercenary group's rating plummeted from six stars to five stars due to this unexpected defeat. What's even more painful is that their loss also attracted ridicule from other mercenary groups. Those harsh insults and contemptuous glances were like sharp blades, tearing away at their self-esteem and pride piece by piece.
