"Zhou Yao, are you alright?"

Outside the venue, seeing Zhou Yao being helped back by Lei Sai, Qin Yuan and Ma Xuan immediately went forward to check on her.

Mu Yang also walked over, his gaze sweeping over Lei Sai's face and hands.

"Brother Mu... what's wrong?"

Lei Sai lowered his head subconsciously, and even his speech was a little stammering.

Mu Yang's lips curled up, and he suddenly said, "It's nothing, just wishing you a son soon."

Lei Sai/Zhou Yao: "!!!"

These words struck Lei Sai and Zhou Yao like a thunderclap from a clear sky.

Lei Sai reacted as if he had been electrocuted, pushing Zhou Yao away and waving his hands repeatedly.

"Mu Mu Mu Mu..."

After murmuring for a long time, the word "brother" still wouldn't come out, as if it were stuck in his throat.

"Stop herding, turn back."

Mu Yang grabbed Lei Sai and forcefully turned his head towards Zhou Yao.

Zhou Yao didn't say anything, just stared straight at Lei Sai.

It seemed as if wisps of invisible black energy were rising from behind her.

Lei Sai: !!! !!!

Didn't they say there wouldn't be any more fights involving me?!

Brother Mu, save me!!!

Mu Yang: Please leave my sight gracefully, thank you.

"Youth is so wonderful, so innocent and naive!"

Qin Yuan watched this scene with a smile, feeling quite moved.

Mu Yang turned to look at him, wanting to say something like, "What are you talking about, you single old man?" but he held back so as not to upset Qin Yuan's old heart.

Meanwhile, the fight in the arena continued.

The fifth match, the sixth match, the seventh match,.........

As each match came to an end, the first round of the fourth-tier group was quickly drawing to a close.

Midway through, because the last person from the Six Doors was not matched with anyone from the Demon Slayer Division, but instead encountered a young man from a small local force in Qinghe County, they did not deliberately delay the time and ended the match quickly.

At this point, even those who were unfamiliar with the feud between the Six Doors and the Demon Slayer Division could see the animosity between the two sides.

However, this did not affect the atmosphere of the election in Fukudi.

After all, every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt its debtor; they naturally wouldn't care too much about things that have nothing to do with the rest of them.

After the first round of competition, Liang Qing took out the box again and let them draw lots.

In the second round of the fourteen-to-seven competition, the members of the Six Doors were once again matched with the Demon Slayer Division.

The one from the Six Doors was Ji Bucheng, who was fighting against Zhou Yao, while the one from the Demon Slayer Division was Fan Ji, a second-class demon-hunting captain at the late stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.

Perhaps fueled by the pent-up anger from the previous battle, Fan Ji, wielding a large hammer, launched a fierce attack right from the start.

For a time, the two were locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle.

Fifteen minutes later, the two exhausted players, stopped by Liang Qing, announced a draw and were eliminated together.

After another hour or so, the fourth-tier group competition finally came to an end.

The winner was the young man from the Six Doors who was the first to appear and had a late-stage Qi Condensation Realm cultivation.

The second place went to a cultivator from the Fengyun Sect who was at the late stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.

The third place went to a disciple of the Fenshui Sect who was at the late stage of the Qi Condensation Realm.

The Demon Slayer Division's best results were fourth and sixth place.

As Liang Qing announced the results of the fourth-tier group, Yuan Yin remained calm, and Nie Chi showed little change in expression. On the contrary, the burly man with a thick beard standing behind him had a smug look on his face.

"One to zero, that's it!"

Huo Xing, a burly man with a thick beard, grinned.

"The Demon Slayer Division is not as simple as you think," Nie Chi glanced at Huo Xing and said calmly.

"You're talking about that little kid from the Yuan family, right? Don't worry, I checked his background before I came. He cultivates the Pure Heart True Qi and has learned the Flying Needle Technique. He might be able to beat Wei Duoduo, but he'll definitely lose to Yu Sheng!" Huo Xing said confidently.

"Perhaps."

Nie Chi remained noncommittal, seemingly not particularly eager to win or lose.

..................

Meanwhile, in the center of the venue.

Liang Qing raised his hand again and announced, "Fifth-Tier Group, First Match, Number One Draw, Enter!"

Mu Yang, who drew the number one lot, slowly walked out from the Demon Slayer Division.

"Brother Mu, be careful!"

Upon seeing Mu Yang's opponent, Lei Sai and the others immediately whispered a word of advice.

A woman walked out from the Six Doors area.

She had short, ear-length hair, a thin face, and two narrow, slightly upturned eyes.

Her fingers were slightly longer than average, with sharp nails. When her hands hung at her sides, they were slightly curved, and the veins on the back of her hands were faintly visible under her fair skin.

She was none other than Wei Duoduo, the blue-striped constable with the iron plaque who tried to attack Mu Yang that night but was stopped by Yu Sheng!

Wei Duoduo stopped thirty feet in front of Mu Yang.

Her gaze swept over Mu Yang, her voice laced with provocation: "Kid, looks like your luck isn't so good!"

"Without Brother Yu stopping me this time, let's see who can save you!"

Mu Yang remained silent, simply standing there with his arms crossed, quietly watching her.

At this moment, a gentle breeze blew through the valley, causing Mu Yang's dark robes to flutter and rustle.

Wei Duoduo narrowed her eyes slightly, like a cat that had been provoked.

Although she only cultivated mid-grade true qi and opened three major meridians, she was no match for Yu Sheng, who cultivated high-grade true qi and opened four major meridians.

But with her naturally strong physique and agile movements, even ordinary mid-stage fifth-order demons are no match for her.

A mere ordinary martial artist, he doesn't even realize he's about to die, yet he's still trying to act tough with me!

Just wait and see how I deal with you!

As she was thinking, Liang Qing announced, "The first match of the fifth-tier group begins!"

Almost the instant Liang Qing's voice fell, a surge of powerful true energy erupted from Wei Duoduo's dantian, spreading to his five fingers and feet.

A shimmering white light flickered at her fingertips, like ten sharp blades reflecting a cold glint.

Fifth-tier martial skill – Cat's Claw!

"Thirty zhang? At my speed, I can cross that in the blink of an eye..."

As Wei Duoduo thought this, her narrow eyes were fixed on Mu Yang's waist.

"I've decided, I'll rip your kidneys apart first!"

However, just as she moved her feet and prepared to launch herself into the air, she suddenly felt a blur before her eyes.

The next second, her body suddenly rose into the air and floated in mid-air.

At the same time, a terrifying force came from her neck.

Mu Yang, who had been a hundred meters away just moments before, suddenly appeared in front of Wei Duoduo.

His right hand was raised straight up, his five fingers firmly embedded in Wei Duoduo's slender neck, locking her firmly in mid-air.

Deep marks were left on her fair skin.

"There's one thing I agree with about what you just said."

Mu Yang held Wei Duoduo's neck with one hand, his voice calm.

"If that guy surnamed Yu hadn't stopped you, who could have saved you?"

After saying that, Mu Yang raised his left hand, made a fist, and struck her lower abdomen heavily.

The chilling corpse poison, amplified by the yin energy, surged into her lower abdomen along his fist.

An extreme coldness exploded within her body, like countless icy needles piercing her internal organs.

Her narrow eyes, which had just been filled with murderous intent, suddenly blurred and lost focus due to the excruciating pain.

Her eyes rolled back, and she immediately lost consciousness.

Mu Yang released his grip.

With her neck covered in dark purple finger marks, Wei Duoduo collapsed to the ground as if her bones had been removed, like a lump of mud.

"The Demon Slayer Division wins the first match of the fifth-tier group."

Liang Qing, who had never hesitated to make a judgment, paused for a moment before making the announcement.

In an instant, the entire audience erupted in uproar!
