Emperor Wu Shihuang's handwriting, do not go out of the Milky Way border

Lin Hai roared and swung his long staff. The gust of wind whipped up by the staff swept towards Wang Nan, swirling and forming a tornado as it moved. Seeing this, Wang Nan's expression turned grim. He hurriedly unleashed several sword strikes to try and block the tornado. But the tornado swallowed the sword strikes whole and continued its assault on Wang Nan.

"Now I want to see what you're going to use to block this attack." The staff had now returned to its original size, and Lin Hai said to Wang Nan.

Wang Nan sneered and continuously poured his Dao power into the longsword, once again unleashing the same move as before.

"Thunderous Crescent Slash!"

The sword shadow that Wang Nan conjured collided violently with the tornado.

Sitting in his chair, Ying Zheng stared intently at the scene, wondering how he would defend himself if he were facing Lin Hai's attack.
At this moment, the tornado and the blade shadow were eroding each other, but the blade shadow was dissolving much faster, becoming increasingly illusory.

Seeing that her attack had failed to completely block the tornado, Wang Nan unleashed several more sword strikes, barely managing to neutralize it.

At this moment, Wang Nan was already panting heavily, feeling that she had less than 30% of her internal energy left.

Lin Hai, on the other hand, appeared calm and unperturbed, as if the attack had had little effect on him.

Wang Nan knew in her heart that if she continued to fight Lin Hai, she would definitely be no match for him, so she decided to fight to the death.

In an instant, Wang Nan disappeared from his original spot, his figure constantly changing position on the disc, making it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.

Seeing this, Lin Hai sneered and swung his stick forward.

"Don't embarrass yourself by using such childish tricks."

As soon as Lin Hai finished speaking, Wang Nan was knocked to the ground by the long stick, as if he had run into it himself.

Blood trickled from the corner of Wang Nan's mouth, her breathing erratic, and she stared at Lin Hai in disbelief, asking, "How did you see through my movements?"

In the past, he used this move to confuse his opponents, allowing him to unleash his strongest attack.

"Have you forgotten that you're still in this space? Every time you move, the space fluctuates. Finding you would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?" Lin Hai said to Wang Nan.

Wang Nan suddenly realized that her cultivation technique had such a flaw.

"Aren't you going to admit defeat? Do you think there's any point in continuing to fight me now?" Lin Hai said, looking at Wang Nan, who had almost lost her fighting ability.

After hearing Lin Hai's words, Wang Nan tried to stand up, but found that she had no strength to get up at all.

Wang Nan was filled with regret at that moment. Why did she have to say something like that?
If he had fought Ying Zheng first, he might have gotten second place, but now he can only get third.

Wang Nan sighed deeply and said, "I concede defeat in this match."

After saying this, Wang Nan seemed to have used up all her strength and lay motionless on the round platform.

Just then, Bai Feng came to the round platform and looked at Wang Nan, who had already admitted defeat, and said, "Since you've admitted defeat, you can only be third place. Go to the side and recover for a bit."

Wang Nan nodded, stood up with difficulty, and walked towards the edge of the circular platform.

Bai Feng's gaze then fell on Ying Zheng.

"Next up is your battle with Lin Hai. Are you ready?"

Ying Zheng nodded, then got up from his chair and walked to the center of the round platform.

“I’ve seen your previous battles. You’re quite strong and qualified to be my opponent,” Lin Hai said, looking at Ying Zheng beside him.

Ying Zheng smiled dismissively and said, "Merely qualified to be your opponent? You overestimate yourself."

Ying Zheng and Lin Hai immediately clashed. Bai Feng smiled at this scene, recalling that he was just like that when he was young.

"Do you need to rest? After all, you just finished a battle, and your internal energy is probably not very sufficient," Bai Feng said, looking at Lin Hai.

Lin Hai shook his head indifferently and said, "I don't need to rest. What's the difference between defeating him and crushing an ant? I don't believe he can take first place from me."

Bai Feng looked at the arrogant Lin Hai, smiled, and then turned his gaze to Ying Zheng: "And you?"

Ying Zheng said to Bai Feng and Lin Hai, "I won't take advantage of you. I want to fight you fairly. You should recover your strength first. I can wait for you."

Ying Zheng did not want to take advantage of others' misfortunes; he wanted a fair and square confrontation.

However, Lin Hai did not accept Ying Zheng's offer and said, "No need. With your strength, you are not worthy of letting me go down to recover."

Ying Zheng coldly laughed, "Since that's the case, then don't blame me for bullying you. You asked for this yourself."

Bai Feng then walked up to Lin Hai and said, "Don't push yourself. Go down and recover your strength first. You know how generous the reward for first place is."

Seeing that Bai Feng was urging him to restore his strength, Lin Hai nodded and said to Bai Feng, "Actually, I don't think it's necessary. But since you've put it that way, I'll restore it first."

Ying Zheng sneered after hearing Lin Hai's words and said nothing more.

Ying Zheng despised those who acted superior to others—people who lacked real strength but liked to put on airs.

Ying Zheng would never give such a person a kind look.

Seeing Ying Zheng's expression, Lin Hai snorted coldly and went back to his chair to begin recovering.

"You don't need to waste so much breath on him. Just beat him into submission in a bit. He's the kind of person who deserves to be taught a lesson," Bai Feng said to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng was amused by Bai Feng's words.

"If he hears you say that, will he come and beat you up?" Ying Zheng asked Bai Feng.

Bai Feng's smile grew even brighter: "Even if you gave him ten times the courage, would he dare to come and hit me? Besides, does he even have the strength?"

With Ying Zheng's current strength, he couldn't see through Bai Feng at all. In his view, Bai Feng was definitely a hidden powerhouse.

"Then can you tell me exactly how strong you are now?" Ying Zheng asked Bai Feng.

Ying Zheng was now very curious about Bai Feng's strength, which allowed him to move freely in and out of this Trial Tower.

Bai Feng smiled slightly at Ying Zheng and said, "You will naturally know about my strength in the future. Telling you now will not do you much good; on the contrary, it may affect your Dao heart."

Ying Zheng nodded with some disappointment.

"What you need to do now is to hone your skills and strive to reach the Transcendent Realm as soon as possible."

“Only when you take this step will you truly enter the ranks of the strong. Your current strength is far from sufficient in the eyes of the outside world,” Bai Feng said earnestly to Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng nodded. Ever since he arrived in the primordial world, he had discovered that the cultivators here were extremely powerful.

Compared to the previous world, the people in the primordial world are much stronger and can completely crush them.

"However, with your master's guidance, I believe your strength will improve rapidly. He can be considered one of the top experts in this primordial world."

Ying Zheng nodded, agreeing with what Bai Feng said.

Although Ying Zheng still couldn't figure out why Xuan Luo was approaching him, it seemed that Xuan Luo harbored no ill intentions towards him. "I wish I could reach the level of my master someday," Ying Zheng said slowly.

Bai Feng smiled gently and said, "Your talent is not weak. If you work hard to cultivate, you will definitely be able to reach that level, as long as you don't die along the way."

Upon hearing Bai Feng's words, Ying Zheng burst into laughter: "It's alright, my master will hold up the sky if it falls. Now I just need to focus on my cultivation."

Bai Feng nodded and said, "You can also adjust your state and deal with him in the best condition later."

"He is considered extremely strong among people at your level. If you can defeat him, you will benefit greatly."

From the previous battles, Ying Zheng also realized that Lin Hai's strength was indeed not weak, and he would be a stumbling block on his way to the top.

However, in Ying Zheng's view, that was merely a stumbling block. If you're going to compete, you must compete for first place.

If we win first place in the Dragon Tiger Tournament, Xuan Luo will be very happy, right? Ying Zheng thought to himself.

Ying Zheng also sat down cross-legged and began to adjust his state. Although he was very confident in himself, he was not arrogant.

After all, it's always better to be safe than sorry, and he didn't want to end up losing his boat unexpectedly.

……

"Now that we've discussed everything, let's set off now," Li Bing said to Wang Li and the others.

Pangu nodded and said, "The strong warriors you brought will follow me. I will lead the charge to hold off the Beast King, and they can assist me from behind."

Wang Li and the others were very happy to hear what Pangu said.

They were still figuring out how to get Pangu to exert more effort so that he could never come back, but unexpectedly, Pangu himself jumped in on his own.

Wang Li nodded and said, "Then let's do it your way. You take them to capture the Beast King. If you succeed, the pressure on us will be much less."

After Wang Li finished speaking, she nodded to the powerful figures behind her, and they all came to stand behind Pangu.

"Let's not delay, let's go up to the city wall and observe the situation to see if the Beast King has appeared," Li Bing said to Wang Li and the others.

Immediately afterwards, Li Bing led Wang Li, Pan Gu and others to the city wall, where they discovered that a dense swarm of demonic beasts was rushing towards Li Family Village not far away.

Seeing this, Li Bing said to Pangu, "It seems they want to wear down our forces. There are just too many of these monsters."

Pangu also discovered that the number of those monsters far exceeded the number of the army they had brought, and with the Beast King's encouragement, they found themselves in a very passive position.

“It seems we need to implement our plan as soon as possible; we can’t delay any longer, or we might not be able to hold on,” Wang Li said to Li Bing.

Li Bing is now undoubtedly the backbone of Wang Li and others—but only on the surface.

"What if the experts we send fail?" the Zhao family head asked, stepping forward at that moment.

After listening to the Zhao family head's words, Li Bing sighed deeply and said, "On this trip, we can only win, we cannot afford to lose. If we fail, it will be a devastating blow to us."

“Originally, with strong individuals holding back the Beast King, we could still manage to hold our ground. But if they all perish there, we might very well lose our position.”

Pangu nodded and said, "It seems the heavy responsibility of this battle falls on our shoulders. However, it is indeed quite difficult."

Pangu was uncertain at this moment. Although he had fought against those who were half-step transcendent before, those were not demonic beasts.

Moreover, two or three eras have passed, and everything has changed. He still doesn't have an accurate understanding of the current strength of a half-step transcendent being.

Only by actually fighting the Beast King can he determine whether he can capture him.

Li Bing turned around and looked at Pangu and the powerful figures behind him, saying, "The survival of our Li Family Village rests in the hands of you six. I hope you will live up to your mission and win a victory."

Pangu and the powerful figures behind him nodded, feeling immense pressure at that moment.

However, the powerful figures behind Pangu also received secret orders from their respective clan leaders.

They won't go all out then; instead, they'll try to keep Pangu there to weaken Li Bing's strength.

Currently, the entire Li family is supported by Pangu alone. Once Pangu is gone, their demise is only a matter of time.

However, Li Bing didn't think that much about it. In his view, Wang Li and the others were still very loyal.

Their grandfather's generation had a particularly good relationship. Therefore, Li Bing had no suspicion of Wang Li and the others.

"Let's send people to find the location of the Beast King first, otherwise we won't know where to start," Pangu said to Li Bing.

Li Bing nodded, and then a guard ran over.

"Take some people with good stealth skills to search for the Beast King. Remember not to alert him."

"Return immediately after you find it. The information you bring back is extremely important to us."

The guard nodded and then withdrew.

In a secluded corner on the city wall, seven or eight people quietly slipped out.

Li Bing was filled with worry at this moment. He didn't know whether Pangu would be able to capture the Beast King.

At that moment, Li Bing seemed to have made up his mind and took out a piece of jet-black armor.

"This armor was passed down from my grandfather's generation. It used to be considered a divine treasure."

"However, after that great battle, it can only be considered a King-level treasure now, but its defensive power is still very strong."

"It can save your life in a critical moment."

Pangu looked at the armor in Li Bing's hand and said to him, "You should keep it for self-defense. Your strength isn't that great right now. I don't need this for the time being."

Li Bing shook his head and said, "Your journey will be extremely dangerous; there will likely be a fierce battle."

"So now you need this more than I do. Don't try to refuse me. We've been brothers for a long time, haven't we?"

Seeing Li Bing's unwavering resolve, Pangu smiled, took the armor from Li Bing's hands, and said...

"Since you put it that way, then I will respectfully accept your offer, but thank you anyway."

Li Bing shook his head and said.

"I should be thanking you. If it weren't for you, I'd probably be dead by now."

Pangu smiled and patted Li Bing on the shoulder.
