After conquering the Empress, I proved my Dao with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace!

"Finally! I've got my chance!"

Just then, Xu Liang looked at the green wooden stick in his hand, and then at the wooden stick in Qin Chuan's hand not far away. A sinister look appeared in his eyes.

He originally thought that he would only have a chance to meet him in the later rounds.

I was so lucky to run into my opponent in the first round.

"Everyone, get into the ring!"

As soon as Ji Li finished speaking, Qin Chuan and the others stepped onto arenas numbered one through five to face off in pairs.

Ji Li announced loudly, "The individual battle for the top ten shall officially begin!"

After he finished speaking, fighting broke out on all five arenas.

On the second arena, Qin Chuan and Xu Liang did not rush to make a move, but looked at each other with smiles on their faces.

After a long pause, Xu Liang said with a venomous look on his face, "Qin Chuan! A month ago, you publicly humiliated me on the cloud ship. Today, I swear to avenge this!"

Qin Chuan shook his head and sneered, "That's all your own fault. You can't blame anyone else. Since you're willing to be Gu Wenxuan's lackey, you should be prepared to be one!"

Hearing Qin Chuan's words, Xu Liang's eyes showed even deeper resentment, and he said coldly, "Things are different now. You don't actually think you're my match now, do you?"

During the chaotic battle in the arena, he did not see Qin Chuan make a move and thought that the opponent had only gotten this far by luck.

Qin Chuan raised an eyebrow, a playful smile on his face: "And then?"

Seeing Qin Chuan's nonchalant attitude, Xu Liang was completely enraged and said coldly, "Then today I'll make you crawl back from this Divine Profound Peak!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he stomped his foot and suddenly threw a punch at Qin Chuan.

"Ninth level of the Mystic Master?"

Qin Chuan was somewhat surprised to sense the fluctuations of profound energy emanating from Xu Liang.

"You didn't expect that, did you? I'm actually at the same level as Gao Kui! Under Instructor Gu's careful guidance, I broke through to the ninth level of the Profound Master realm three days ago!"

Xu Liang sneered and said smugly, "And I, Xu Liang, am the biggest dark horse this time!"

"is it?"

As Xu Liang approached, Qin Chuan narrowed his eyes and a smile curved his lips.

The next moment, he lightly touched the ground with his foot and instantly appeared beside Xu Liang.

So fast!

Upon seeing Qin Chuan suddenly appear, Xu Liang's pupils shrank, and a look of horror flashed in his eyes.

He quickly changed his stance and threw a punch at Qin Chuan, who was standing to the side.

However, it's too late!

Qin Chuan's gaze turned cold, and he grabbed Xu Liang's arms with both hands, slamming them into his own knees.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound of bones breaking suddenly rang out on the field.

Xu Liang's right arm was as if it were made of paper, and it was broken off.

"what!"

In an instant, Xu Liang's face was filled with pain, and he let out a heart-wrenching scream.

With Qin Chuan's current strength at the seventh level of the Great Mystic Master realm, dealing with someone who hasn't even reached the Great Mystic Master level is as easy as an eagle catching a chick.

Soon, Xu Liang's screams came to an abrupt end. He felt a tightness in his throat and was unable to make a sound.

Qin Chuan's hands gripped his neck like iron clamps, slowly lifting him into the air.

The intense feeling of suffocation and helplessness filled Xu Liang's mind. He tried to pry the hand choking his neck with his left hand, but found that he could not do it no matter what.

Looking at Xu Liang in his hand, Qin Chuan said coldly, "Since the lesson you learned on the cloud ship didn't make you reflect properly, then today I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he began to slap Xu Liang's face repeatedly with his other hand.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

The crisp, loud sound of a slap echoed throughout the arena.

This style, so different from the other arenas, left the new disciples watching in awe.

That's so brutal!

While the other arenas were still evenly matched, with back-and-forth battles, Qin Chuan's side was a one-sided crushing victory.

Watching Qin Chuan relentlessly slapping Xu Liang on the stage, Ji Li shook his head helplessly and muttered, "This guy is hardly a freshman; he's just bullying people too much..."

On the second arena, after Qin Chuan slapped Xu Liang dozens of times, Xu Liang's eyes became glazed and his face swelled up like a pig's head.

"If there's a next time, I'll send you to the Western Paradise!" Qin Chuan said coldly.

After saying that, he casually tossed Xu Liang aside like trash, leaving him off the stage.

"hiss!"

Xu Liang, whose mouth and nose were covered in blood and whose consciousness was already blurred, was seen.

The new disciples watching gasped in shock, their hearts trembling.

They secretly warned themselves that they must never provoke this great demon again; he was simply too terrifying.

Looking at Qin Chuan on the second arena, Han Yutang's face was ashen, and a look of horror flashed in his eyes.

He hadn't expected Xu Liang to have the strength of a ninth-level Xuan Master, and he was even more surprised that Qin Chuan had eliminated him so easily.

That means Qin Chuan is stronger than Xu Liang, and there's only one possibility.

That's the Great Mystic Master!

Looking at Qin Chuan's somewhat immature face, Han Yutang was a little shocked. How old was he? He was already a Grand Master?

"Elder Han, is Gao Kui really going to lose to Qin Chuan later?"

At this moment, an outer sect elder looked at Han Yutang with a worried expression.

The other outer sect elders were in the same boat, their faces filled with worry.

The more they watched, the more terrifyingly strong Qin Chuan seemed. These freshmen were like chicks in front of him, completely crushed.

"No, don't worry!"

Thinking of the backup plan he had just left, Han Yutang sneered, "Gao Kui will definitely be able to beat him!"

Seeing Han Yutang's confident expression, the outer sect elders finally felt relieved.

Although I don't know why Han Yutang is so confident, there must be a reason why he said it.

Before long, the battles on the other arenas also came to an end.

After glancing at the five people in front of him, Ji Li said in a deep voice: "The top five in the freshman competition are Qin Chuan, Gao Kui, Jiang Zhixuan, Du Yanbin, and Wang Jiarui."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and another lottery tube appeared in his hand.

"You will continue drawing lots to determine the next round of individual battles!"

Upon hearing Ji Li's words, Qin Chuan and the others stepped forward one by one and took out the wooden sticks from the lottery tube.

Red?

Qin Chuan was taken aback, and was somewhat surprised to see that one end of the wooden stick in his hand was red.

As the sect leader had previously stated, red signifies a bye, meaning the player will advance directly to the next round.

Upon seeing the red token in Qin Chuan's hand, the four people next to him cast envious glances.

This means that no matter what happens to Qin Chuan later, he is guaranteed to be in the top three.

Gao Kui looked at Qin Chuan and sneered, "You really are lucky. I wonder if you'll still be so lucky when you run into me later!"

Qin Chuan smiled and said, "You'll find out soon enough."

Upon hearing this, Gao Kui's face turned cold. Just as he was about to say something more, he heard Ji Li's voice.

"Qin Chuan has a bye. Gao Kui will face Wang Jiarui, and Jiang Zhixuan will face Du Yanbin. Now, step into the ring!"
