Just as Shi Mu and Na Li Wu were sizing each other up, a burst of green light lit up in the center of the martial arts stage, and a green figure appeared out of thin air and stood between the two.
"In a martial arts competition, only the winner is determined, not life or death! If one party falls to the ground and is unable to fight again, he is considered a loser. You cannot deliberately pursue or hurt his life. If someone feels that his fighting power is not enough, he can voluntarily admit defeat. Regarding this rule, you Do you two still have any questions?" the green-light figure asked.
"No." Shi Mu replied.
"Hehe, no." The hunched-backed man looked at Shi Mu, smiled sinisterly, and replied.
"After both sides tell each other their names and races, the battle can begin." After the green-light figure said this, he immediately stood up in the air and looked at them condescendingly.
"Shi Mu, Blue Starfish, human race." Shi Mu stood tall and said.
"Hey, Blue Starfish? I've never heard of it. It's a despicable place where birds don't poop!" the man with a hunched back chuckled.
Shi Mu glanced at him and said nothing, but raised his right hand in a gesture of invitation.
"Hey, this guy really doesn't know how high the sky is. I advise you to kowtow to Senior Brother Li and admit defeat." The young man with a fox face in the audience yelled at Shi Mu in a high-pitched voice.
"Li Wu, Feng Lixing, Li Yao Clan." The hunched-backed man narrowed his eyes at Shi Mu and said.
"Senior Brother Li, teach him a lesson!" Another demon clan shouted.
After this shouting, the dozen or so monsters surrounding the court started to cheer.
"Junior Brother Shi, right? As a senior brother, I would like to advise you, although the rules stipulate that I cannot take your life, the feeling of breaking your muscles and bones is not pleasant. If the sea of consciousness is damaged again, the gain will outweigh the loss." Li Wu said. .
"Should we fight?" Shi Mu's voice was not loud, but everyone present could hear him clearly.
"court death!"
Li Wu shouted angrily, and a green light suddenly lit up on his body, and a huge civet cat figure wearing blue armor suddenly appeared behind him.
As soon as the Dharma image came out, Li Wu squatted down, put his hands on the ground in front of him, and lay down like a wild beast.
There is a sound of "噌"!
Shi Mu's eyes flashed as he saw Li Wu kicking his feet, his body bursting with light, and he flew out, and his figure immediately blurred into a blue light and shadow.
Li Wu was extremely fast, causing the surrounding airflow to rotate rapidly. After a while, a huge tornado was formed, and in the blink of an eye, it surrounded Shi Mu.
For a moment, the airflow on the martial arts stage was chaotic and smoke and dust were everywhere.
Just when the spectators nearby shook their heads, thinking that Shi Mu was doomed, they heard a loud "boom".
The tornado hurricane in the field, which was originally majestic, suddenly shook, and a huge red fist shadow was reflected from it.
I saw the red fist shadow suddenly crashing into the inner wall of the hurricane. The green light flashed wildly in the hurricane and suddenly exploded.
The chaotic air flow dispersed in all directions, and a figure flew out from it and fell heavily under the martial arts stage.
The originally huge tornado had disappeared, but Shi Mu still stood there, looking as if he had not moved.
After everyone in the audience was startled, they quickly looked towards the audience and saw that Li Wu's originally hunched body seemed to have been straightened. His body twitched twice and then stopped moving.
"How... how is it possible? How can a mere human race have such huge power?" A gray-skinned demon clan in the audience said in disbelief.
"Just... just one punch..." The young man with the fox face was also shocked and speechless.
The other demon clans surrounding him also had expressions of disbelief on their faces.
"It's not good, Senior Brother Li... he's dead." At this moment, someone suddenly exclaimed.
"This human race...killed people in violation of regulations!" someone shouted again.
Shi Mu's eyes were indifferent, but his face didn't change at all.
The blue light figure quickly fell from mid-air, came to Li Wu, put his hand on his forehead, and started to explore.
"He is not dead, but he was seriously injured. All his bones were broken, and his sea of consciousness also suffered some vibrations, so he fell into a deep coma. He needs to stay in bed for at least half a year before he can get better." The blue-light figure said.
When everyone around him heard these words, he suddenly took a breath of cold air and looked at Shi Mu with a different look, not daring to show any contempt anymore.
"Shi Mu wins!" The green-light figure announced.
When Shi Mu heard this, he cupped his hands towards the azure figure, then walked off the martial arts stage and walked to other places.
There was still some time before the next competition on the Qinglan Ranking, so Shi Mu planned to see how others were doing.
Before he had taken two steps, he heard a burst of enthusiastic cheers erupting from around a martial arts performance stage in front of him.
He walked closer slowly and found that it was Zhao Jian who was fighting with someone. The martial arts stage where he was located was surrounded by people on three floors inside and three outside, which was much more than the onlookers he had before.
After watching for a while, Shi Mu discovered that the person fighting Zhao Jian was a very powerful old disciple. He was very skilled with a large sword and spiritual weapon. However, under Zhao Jian's continuous heavy punches, he could only withstand it.
However, he has no power to fight back.
"Junior Brother Shi." At this moment, a cry suddenly sounded from behind Shi Mu.
Shi Mu looked back and saw Qing Changtian and Chi Yangzi walking side by side towards him. It seemed that the unhappiness between the two when they first entered the house had disappeared.
After saying hello, the three of them turned their attention to the martial arts stage.
"With that boy Zhao's strength, how come he hasn't finished the fight yet?" Chi Yangzi asked.
"He was scheduled for the second match in the arena here, and his opponent was an old disciple at the late Earth level." Shi Mu said.
"That's it." Chi Yangzi said.
"Brother Shi, how is your battle situation?" Qing Changtian asked.
"After winning a game, both of you must have won." Shi Mu said.
"Haha, indeed, I won by luck." Qing Changtian said with a smile.
At this moment, there was another burst of cheers from the side of the martial arts stage.
Shi Mu looked up and saw that the green light on Zhao Jian's left hand had just faded away, and the old disciple who was facing him had fallen to the edge of the ring, looking unconscious.
Zhao Jian won without any doubt, and the crowd surrounding him began to disperse. Shi Mu said hello to the two of them and left.
…
In the period that followed, Shi Mu fought two more games in a row.
All he encountered were demon disciples with outstanding defensive capabilities. One of them had the blood of a giant mammoth, while the other could summon the armored giant rhinoceros. Their strength had also reached the late earth level.
However, Shi Mu's immense strength was astonishing, and his arms, tempered by Xuan Gong, weighed over ten thousand kilograms, making him indestructible.
The defenses that the two were proud of were like paper in front of Shi Mu. They were broken through with three punches and two kicks and easily won, leaving a deep impression on the new and old disciples who were watching.
Of course, the most eye-catching one is Zhao Jian. In his several battles, he encountered quite powerful old disciples, but no one could challenge him, or even force him to use the Nine Transformations.
Xuan Gong.
As for Zi Ling, Qing Changtian, Chi Yangzi, Jiang Shuishui, Lu Jing, Wushi brothers and others who ranked high in the entry trial, they also maintained a winning streak and began to show their talents in this competition.
.
…
The elimination competition lasted for several days due to the large number of games.
The last day, martial arts stage No. 7.
Shi Mu was dressed in green clothes, standing tall, looking at the person standing opposite him, with a slight smile on his lips, and said:
"Fellow Daoist Lu, nice to meet you."
The man standing opposite him was wearing a green robe, with a green cloth covering his face. Only a pair of bright eyes were exposed. He was glaring at Shi Mu angrily. It wasn't Lu Jing, but who else could it be?
"I let you run away last time. I'm afraid your good luck will come to an end this time!" Lu Jing said.
"I think that Fellow Daoist Lu was not very lucky when he met me," Shi Mu said.
"Then give it a try." Lu Jing shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Jing saw a large thick green mist rising up around him, rolling towards Shi Mu like a sea wave.
"Hula" sound.
Raging flames surged out from Shi Mu's body, surrounding him as if he was wearing a flame armor.
I saw the billowing green mist covering Shi Mu's red flames. In the blink of an eye, it was burned into a wisp of white smoke and disappeared.
"snort!"
When Lu Jing saw this, he snorted coldly, and a green light lit up around him, and the thick fog behind it immediately seemed to be boiling and began to stir violently.
After a while, the green mist rose to a height of more than ten feet and transformed into a green-armored warrior holding a giant axe.
The green-armored warrior looked up to the sky and let out a silent roar, then he struck down his ax at Shi Mu.
Shi Mu didn't take a step back, he opened his mouth and spat out, and a small black stick flew out of his mouth.
As soon as the small stick entered Shi Mu's hand, it immediately grew dozens of times and turned into a long black stick that was more than ten feet long and as thick as a child's arm.
Shi Mu held the stick with both hands horizontally, raised it above his head, and blocked the green giant axe.
"clang!"
There was a violent collision, and Shi Mu's hands holding the stick trembled, his knees slightly bent, and he blocked the giant ax back.
He immediately took a few steps back and moved the Ruyi iron rod a little closer to him. The flames on his wrists slowly circled up the rod, and after a moment, the long rod was completely wrapped.
Immediately afterwards, Shi Mu took a leap forward and used an ape-climbing attack, instantly climbing dozens of feet into the air.
Shi Mu looked like a flaming demon god, bending backwards like a bow in the high air, accumulating all his strength, holding the stick tightly with both hands, swinging it from behind to in front of him, and swung it down brazenly, with an astonishing momentum.
Lu Jing was shocked when he saw this, and he pressed the magic weapon in his hand. The huge ax in the magician's hand suddenly glowed with green light, and he slashed towards Shi Mu from bottom to top.
"boom!"
A violent critical strike sounded, and the thick green mist on the martial arts stage suddenly dispersed, and countless rubble and smoke rose into the sky.
Shi Mu's flaming long stick seemed to have broken through Lu Jing's giant axe, and smashed his entire body into the ground with one stick.
After a while, the smoke and dust gradually dispersed, and the onlookers were surprised to find that a deep pit had sunk into the center of the martial arts stage below.
Lu Jing, on the other hand, was lying in a deep pit with his clothes in rags and his breath weak.
Shi Mu jumped down on the edge of the pit, pointed the stick at Lu Jing with one hand, and looked down at Lu Jing with a raised brow. His expression was like asking, "Do you accept it or not?"
At this time, the green cloth on Lu Jing's face had torn apart, revealing a face full of sores. His eyes looking at Shi Mu were full of gray and defeated, and there was no longer the brilliance of the past. (To be continued.)
