Danwu God Emperor

Ding Mao turned around and returned to his seat. The atmosphere on the round platform was tense. All eleven people were cautiously on their left and right, and no one dared to make any rash moves.

For a moment, the atmosphere on the round platform, where thousands of people were watching, was exceptionally oppressive.

But everyone knew that this peaceful situation would be broken sooner or later. Everyone wanted the rewards for the top three, and even if they didn't compete with Dong Qianqian for first place, the rewards for second and third place were still tempting them.

Five out of eleven people will be eliminated!

They observed each other, each having made a certain assessment of their opponent in their minds, waiting to see who would be the first to make a move!

The eleven candidates retreated to the edge of the circular platform with perfect understanding. No one wanted to be the first to stick their neck out; they all wanted to stand aside and watch the show, hoping to advance smoothly.

Although Ye Lou also wanted to, things didn't go as planned. The two prodigies of the Wu family and Dong Neng of the Dong family didn't look at him with friendly eyes.

He didn't know much about Wu Zhuofu's strength, but he had a good idea of ​​Wu Bing and Dong Neng's strength from their previous wrestling match. Although they had forcibly raised their strength to the ninth level of internal energy in the past few days, they were not a threat.

Ye Ping only recently reached the ninth level of internal strength, so he should be more than capable of dealing with one of them.

"Wu Bing, we both have a deep grudge against Ye Lou. How about we join forces and eliminate these two scumbags from the Ye family first!" Dong Neng's vicious gaze was fixed on Ye Lou; the humiliation he suffered at Jiao Lifang's hands was still vivid in his mind.

Dong Neng now wishes he could skin Ye Lou alive and drink his blood.

Wu Bing had long intended this. Although Ye Lou was very strong, he did not think he could be stronger than Wu Zhuofu. Wu Zhuofu had already stepped into the ninth level of internal strength. Even if he faced a strong person who had just entered the Spirit Guiding Realm, he should not be afraid.

Now that Dong Neng has brought it up first, why shouldn't Wu Bing agree?

"Alright, today we'll teach these two good-for-nothings a lesson!"

The three stepped forward simultaneously, their fighting spirit soaring, and slowly approached Ye Lou's side. The other examinees were naturally happy to see this, especially since it was a battle between the three major families.

Ye Ping gripped his sword with both hands, his hands trembling slightly. He was a prodigy temporarily cultivated by the Ye family, and he was participating in such an important competition for the first time. How could he possibly have the mental fortitude to handle it?

Ye Lou grasped his hand and grinned.

"Don't be afraid, Dong Neng or Wu Bing, which one do you choose? Leave the rest to me!"

"I, I choose Wu...Wu Bing!"

Wu Zhuofu charged forward, wielding a giant axe. Under the scorching sun, the axe tip gleamed with a cold light, dazzling to the eye. He leaped into the air and cleaved down towards Ye Lou's head.

Upon seeing Wu Zhuofu's rising power, Dong Neng smiled excitedly, thinking, "He truly deserves to be the Wu family's number one prodigy."

"So powerful! That axe blow must have been at least tens of thousands of pounds of force!" the crowd exclaimed. This meant that Wu Zhuofu had unleashed the power of a Spirit Guiding Realm cultivator at the ninth level of internal strength.

"His strength is decent, but he's too stupid!"

Ye Lou moved nimbly, dodging the axe with a slight sidestep. The giant axe slammed down, smashing a large hole in the circular platform floor, sending debris flying everywhere.

"Let's see how long you can hide!" Wu Zhuofu smiled coldly, gripped his giant axe, roared to the sky, and began to spin in the air, while the giant axe spun rapidly on the ground.

The giant axe carved a small trench into the platform, and pebbles kept flying out, causing scratches to many people below.

Ye Lou was quite shocked. The power of this spinning giant axe was indeed very strong. It seemed that the number one prodigy still had some strength. With this move, he believed that securing a spot in Tianyi's admissions would not be too much of a problem.

Ye Lou touched the ground with his toes, spread his arms, and moved like the wind. Wu Zhuofu's attack was swift and relentless, and his strength and speed had increased considerably.

Even though Ye Lou's figure was elusive, he was still able to follow closely behind. Wherever the giant axe passed, the round platform was left in ruins.

At the same time, Dong Neng and Wu Bing launched their attacks, and Ye Ping also rushed forward with all his might, fighting Wu Bing to a standstill on the other side, and gradually gained confidence.

"Ye Lou, I will make you pay tenfold for the humiliation you suffered!" Dong Neng held his long sword, drawing a brilliant arc in the air as he thrust it toward Ye Lou's left arm.

Ye Lou is in danger now!

The Ye family members were all on edge. They might not be afraid of Wu Zhuofu, but with Dong Neng, who also had the same level of internal strength, added to the mix, they were not so sure what to do.

A rare smile appeared on Dong Qianqian's lips. What an ungrateful wretch!

"roll!"

Ye Lou uttered a single word that stunned the entire audience. He increased his speed to the limit, not only avoiding Wu Zhuofu's pursuit but also dodging Dong Neng's oncoming sword strike.

Ye Lou raised his hand and punched Dong Neng in the face, instantly turning him black and blue, knocking out his teeth, and making him unrecognizable. Then he kicked him away.

With a piercing wail, the entire audience fell silent. It turned out that Ye Lou had not been able to unleash his full strength!

"Good! Ye Lou is awesome!"

The Ye family members excitedly raised their arms and cheered, feeling gratified and eager to show off their power to the Dong family.

Dong Kuofeng glanced at her coldly, his lips twitching slightly, his fist cracking so hard it made his bones pop. Although Dong Qianqian already had a spot firmly in the top three, who wouldn't want another one?

"Teacher, this candidate's movement technique is quite good. He must have mastered a high-grade Yellow Rank martial skill!" Ding Mao turned around and said respectfully to Liu Changfeng.

Liu Changfeng nodded slightly without speaking, but his good movements and martial arts skills were not enough to impress him.

However, these words also reached Dong Qianqian's ears, and her expression turned sour. "Ye Lou, you'd better not pass the previous exams."

"I really don't know where you get your confidence from?" Ye Lou glanced at Dong Neng, who was lying on the ground.

Dong Neng clutched his stomach and struggled to his feet. He stared at Ye Lou with terror in his eyes, as if he were facing a god of death. Before Ye Lou could even get close, he reluctantly walked down the steps.

As a result, only ten of the eleven candidates remain, and they are all prodigies from the three major families.

Uh!

Before anyone could react, another scream rang out, and Wu Bing was sent flying out of the arena, spraying blood in mid-air. Ye Ping stood there, smiling as he looked at Ye Lou, his confidence growing stronger.

He knew that it was entirely because Ye Lou defeated Dong Neng that he not only gained confidence but also distracted Wu Bing for a moment, allowing him to seize the opportunity.

Otherwise, given their respective strengths, it would have been impossible to determine a winner so early.

The crowd of thousands was in an uproar. It was too shocking and too unexpected! In just half an hour, two prodigies had been eliminated. Such a result was simply unbelievable to them.

But all of this is related to Ye Lou, who is standing on the stage, looking at Wu Zhuofu with a calm and collected expression.

"it's your turn!"

"Hmph! Don't think you can push your luck just because you beat two trash." Wu Zhuofu's aura suddenly increased, and he raised his giant axe, creating a strong wind that swept over.

"Take this!"

In fact, Wu Zhuofu did not dare to underestimate Ye Lou. He was able to defeat a ninth-level internal energy master in one strike, so no one would dare to be careless. At this moment, he unleashed his strongest martial art, the "Heaven Collapse Axe Technique," precisely to leave Ye Lou no chance.

Ye Lou narrowed his eyes, calm and fearless, a slight smile playing on his lips. Was he starting to get serious?

Wu Zhuofu leaped down, his face contorted in a ferocious grimace. His giant axe slammed down like a massive boulder, and the air around him seemed to grow heavy, as if he were harnessing the power of heaven and earth.

"Has Wu Zhuofu become this strong?" The crowd was shocked and quickly moved aside, fearing that the axe blow was too powerful and might affect them.

Even Ding Mao sat up straight, a knowing smile playing on his lips.

On the other hand, Ye Lou remained completely calm. Suddenly, he moved with lightning speed, a gust of wind whistling past him as his long sword shot out from behind him, its speed even surpassing Ye Lou's footsteps.

"Such a fast sword technique exists in this world!"

"So what if he's fast? Wu Zhuofu is trying to take the Heaven Collapse Axe Technique head-on. Isn't that just courting death!"

Wu Zhuofu sneered. "Did you hear that? You dare to take my Heaven-Shattering Axe Technique head-on!"

The longsword was getting faster and faster, leaving Ye Lou far behind, which surprised everyone. Could it be that Wu Zhuofu's axe was neutralized halfway through?

"You think you can break my Heaven-Shattering Axe Technique? Let's see how many swords you have left!"

Wu Zhuofu swung his axe directly at the longsword. With a buzzing sound, the longsword was sent flying. Fortunately, the Qingfeng sword was no ordinary weapon, otherwise it would have been shattered into two pieces long ago.

"Let's see what other tricks you have up your sleeve!"

"Then watch carefully!" Ye Lou remained calm and composed. He moved again, his figure flashing like a shadow, and in the blink of an eye, he had already arrived at the spot where the long sword had landed.

Draw your sword and spin!

He spun rapidly along the ground, raising dust and creating a flurry of sword shadows as he thrust towards Wu Zhuofu in front of him.

The latter was terrified. He hadn't expected that his first axe strike would reveal the weakness of the Heaven Collapse Axe Technique. The lower body had always been the fatal flaw of the Heaven Collapse Axe Technique, so how could it be seen so quickly?

"what!"

A scream was heard as Wu Zhuofu's thigh was pierced by the Qingfeng sword. He lost his balance and fell to his knees.

"Zhuofu!"

The head of the Wu family felt as if his heart was being pierced by needles when he saw his son injured, but he dared not step forward to stop him.

Ye Lou drew his Qingfeng sword, stood in front of Wu Zhuofu, and said, "I have no grudge against you and do not wish to hurt you further. You may leave now. This sword is just to tell you not to be arrogant!"

Wu Zhuofu was extremely unwilling. He gritted his teeth, hung his head, and trembled with anger. He never expected that in this year's Tianyi recruitment, he, the number one prodigy of the Wu family, would be defeated in the first round.

Of course, this is all thanks to Ye Lou's talent. Since he can quickly comprehend martial arts techniques, it is not difficult for him to see through the flaws of some martial arts techniques. In addition, with the Three Swords Style, he first used "speed" to break Wu Zhuofu's Heaven Collapse Axe Technique, and then used "accuracy" to strike Wu Zhuofu's flaw.

This Heaven Collapse Axe Technique can easily break through!

Ye Lou, sword in hand, turned around and looked at Dong Qianqian indifferently!
