Starting with SSS-rank talent, I contracted the Forbidden Ferocity.

Qin Wuji did not go on stage immediately.

He looked at Shen Ye, his expression eerily calm.

The instructor from the capital city whispered:

"Wuji, he has already fought four battles in a row."

"Now is the best time to go in; the odds of winning are highest."

Qin Wuji said calmly:

"I know."

"But I want to beat Shen Ye, not a shadow who's been worn down by a war of attrition."

The instructor in the capital city frowned.

"This is the Battle of Nine Cities, not a private duel."

Qin Wuji did not refute.

He simply took a step and landed on the Nanjiang arena.

The Thunder Prison Dragon Eagle then descended.

Purple lightning exploded.

The entire arena was enveloped in lightning.

Qin Wuji looked at Shen Ye.

"I'll give you fifteen minutes to recover."

Shen Ye said, "No need."

Qin Wuji's eyes turned cold.

"You look down on me?"

Shen Ye shook his head.

"I'm in a hurry."

Luo Lie covered his face in the audience.

"He really knows how to infuriate people."

Gu Chen, however, was looking at Shen Ye's hand.

Although Shen Ye's arms had mostly recovered from the lightning injuries, his aura had begun to fluctuate after just four consecutive battles.

This battle will not be easy.

Qin Wuji raised his thunder spear.

"Then three moves."

"If you're still standing after three moves, I'll admit defeat."

Shen Ye's eyes flickered slightly.

"it is good."

First move.

The Thunder Dragon Eagle soared into the sky, instantly turning the entire sky purple.

The lightning pattern between Qin Wuji's brows lit up.

"Thunder Prison, Ten Thousand Spears"

Countless lightning spears rained down from the sky.

Not just one.

There are thousands of them.

Shen Ye raised his hand.

Ye Yu unleashed the Nether Phoenix Soul Burial, and a black curtain of fire swept upwards.

The Nine-Nine Netherworld Prison rose up, protecting the four corners of the arena.

The Dragon Abyss Battle Golden Body activated, blocking Shen Ye's path.

The lightning spear fell.

Bone Prison Shattered.

The Netherfire Dissipates.

Large scorch marks appeared on Long Yuan's body.

But Shen Ye did not back down.

First move, take this.

The second move.

Qin Wuji and Lei Yulongying were connected by their auras.

His body transformed into a bolt of lightning, instantly appearing before Shen Ye.

The lightning spear pierced straight into his heart.

too fast.

Shen Ye switched to the Myriad Beasts Divine Rune.

Night Feather Form: Increased Speed.

Candle Nine Form: Shadow Lock.

Dragon Abyss Form: Endure the attack head-on.

For the first time, the triple patterns lit up on his body simultaneously.

It felt as if my blood and energy were being ignited.

He turned half an inch to the side, avoiding his heart, and let the thunder spear pierce his shoulder.

At the same time, he punched Qin Wuji in the chest.

boom!

The two of them stepped back at the same time.

Blood was streaming down Shen Ye's shoulder.

A trickle of blood also spilled from the corner of Qin Wuji's mouth.

The entire room fell silent.

The second move, here we go.

Qin Wuji stared at the fist mark on his chest, his eyes flashing with lightning.

"The third move."

The Thunder Prison Dragon Eagle let out a long cry.

Its body transformed into lightning and merged into Qin Wuji's back.

Human and animal in one.

Qin Wuji was covered in purple lightning armor, and dragon-eagle lightning wings sprouted from his back.

The true trump card of a fourth-tier prodigy.

"Thunder Prison Lord Descends".

A shot fell.

It's not fast.

Not many.

It is pressure.

The entire arena seemed to be suppressed by a thunderous prison, and the space around Shen Ye became heavy.

There's no escaping it.

You can only accept it.

Shen Ye took a deep breath.

A system notification popped into my mind.

[A high-pressure, life-or-death battle has been detected.]

[The triple-layered Beast Divine Rune can be forcibly activated.]

[Risk: Post-battle weakness, beast tamers will also be injured.]

Shen Ye did not hesitate.

"open."

The phantom images of the three mythical bloodlines, Ye Yu, Zhu Jiu, and Long Yuan, appeared simultaneously.

Wings formed from ghostly fire.

The shadow becomes the pupil.

Battle blood forms armor.

Shen Ye raised his short sword.

Three-colored patterns intertwine on the blade.

Myriad Beasts Sword Pattern

The lightning spear fell.

Shen Ye unleashed a slash.

boom!

Lightning engulfed the arena.

Everyone in the stands stood up.

Han Pojun's expression changed drastically.

Lu Qingshan also narrowed his eyes.

A moment later, the lightning dissipated.

In the center of the arena, Qin Wuji knelt on one knee, his thunder spear broken in two.

Shen Ye stood in front of him.

The short sword had already broken.

His right hand was covered in blood.

But he was still standing.

Qin Wuji looked up, remained silent for a long time, and then suddenly smiled.

"You win."

As soon as he finished speaking, the referee announced:

Nanjiang successfully defended its title.

[Nanjiang Points +1.]

Shen Ye has won five consecutive matches.

The entire audience was in an uproar.

Shen Ye, however, did not smile.

He looked down at his hands.

The triple composite is indeed powerful.

But the cost is also high.

Ye Yu, Zhu Jiu, and Long Yuan's auras all experienced a brief decline.

Qin Wuji stood up and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

"I will return to the final arena."

Shen Ye nodded.

"I'm waiting for you."

Qin Wuji turned and stepped off the stage.

Shen Ye looked at the remaining two teams.

The Demon Sea has already been defeated.

The capital city has also suffered defeats.

Next up is Li Xuance of Tianfu.

Li Xuance stepped forward, holding the wooden sword, his expression gentle.

"Shen Ye, you must be very tired right now."

Shen Ye said, "It's alright."

Li Xuance smiled.

"Then I won't stand on ceremony."

He stepped onto the ring.

The wooden sword, which had been broken once, was drawn back from its sheath.

The Azure Lotus Sword Deer arrived, treading on light.

Li Xuance said softly:

"I've been thinking about this sword all night last night."

Shen Ye gripped the cracked dagger.

"Perfect."

"I'd like to borrow it again."
