anced around at the people once more, rebuking them with dissatisfaction: "All of you stand straight and be alert! You all look like frostbitten eggplants. Where's the appearance of a bandit"They all...Ye Bufan watched the battle onstage. As two seeded teams, Chixia Sect and Qi Family didn't fight each other. They had obviously reached a tacit agreement that as long as they got the qualifying spot, it was enough.

And the remaining eight major sects, although they tried their best, the gap in strength was simply too great.

Most of these forty people are at the level of Great Immortal, with Da Luo Xian being a minority, and those who reach the level of Immortal King are even rarer.

But these people were extremely hardworking in displaying their abilities. The purpose was simple, not to qualify for the next round, but to attract the attention of major sects and secure a good future for themselves.

From the performance on stage, it can be seen that this hundred-door competition is just a formality. Before the start of the competition, the results have already been decided. No one can shake the status of the Three Sects, Five Factions, and Seven Great Families.

Perhaps only within that single seed team group could others hope to get a chance, but this was already very satisfying for the major sects.

After all, strength decides everything. These large sects and powerful families are far beyond their reach in terms of power.

The following matches will continue, the second group, the third group, the fourth group...

It seemed intense and exciting, but overall it was uneventful, with no surprises in the outcome.

Occasionally, one or two astonishing geniuses appear, but they are merely a fleeting glimpse.

In team battles like this, the outstanding performance of one or two individuals can't fundamentally change the overall situation unless they are exceptionally powerful prodigies.

While the disciples sent by the Three Sects, Five Factions, and Seven Great Families firmly held their positions on the field, no one could shake them.

Everything went as expected, what was a bit surprising was the lineup of the Han family.

Other sects try to hide their strength as much as possible, while they have almost revealed all their cards.

This left other major sects bewildered, wondering what the Han family was planning.

Feeling the reactions of those around him, Han Ling was furious, gritting his teeth and glaring fiercely at Ye Bufan. After leaving the stage, he went to the seat where the Zhao family was located.

As fellow prodigies of the Seven Great Families, he and Zhao Xingyun had a certain degree of friendship.

"Zhao brother, later help me take care of that kid named Ye from the Lingyun Sword Sect, I owe you one."

Zhao Xingyun was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. He had originally planned to kill Ye Bufan anyway, so now he had gained a favor for free.

This kid is really a troublemaker, he even offended the Han family.

Then the competition continued, and soon it was time for the ninth group.

Ye Bufan had already arranged for the people to take the stage, he himself must attend, and bring another Leng Qingqiu.

The remaining three are Ling Jianyi, Ling Jianfei, and Ling Jiansi from the Lingyun Sword Sect.

These three individuals are merely at the level of Great Immortal cultivation. In reality, they went there just to put on a show, their primary purpose being to deceive other sects.

This is Ye Bufan's lineup after carefully observing the previous game.

Though Leng Qingqiu's cultivation is only at the peak of Immortal King, her strength is absolutely that of an early Immortal Sovereign, and she is invincible. She alone would be enough.

This way, we can both ensure the team advances and conceal our own strength.

Simultaneously possessing oneself, with the cooperation of the divine sense sword, it is absolutely capable of sweeping across early Immortal Kings, and even has the strength to fight against mid-stage Immortal Kings.

Therefore, this is the best lineup, capable of balancing all aspects.

Very soon, the Venerable Not-Confused gave an order, and everyone ascended the stage.

By this point in the competition, the surrounding crowd had grown somewhat numb. After all, this group was the most predictable of them all, lacking any real suspense and failing to pique much interest.

In many people's eyes, the Zhao family winning is a foregone conclusion. The rest are just weaker sects with low cultivation and nothing to watch.

So the audience was silent, and only after Leng Qingqiu took the stage did her stunning beauty attract countless gazes.

Zhao Xingyun jumped onto the stage and saw Ye Bufan at a glance.

"Boy, I didn't expect you to dare to get on stage again!"

As soon as he spoke, the surrounding crowd immediately turned to look. They couldn't believe that this small Lingyun Sword Sect had actually offended Zhao Family's Third Young Master. Wasn't this courting death

"Where did this sect come from I've never seen it before..."

"It's said to be a small sect under the jurisdiction of Dili Tian. This time, I don't know how they got lucky and actually received a participation life card..."

"Getting the token won't help, offending the Zhao family, now going down could still save your life, once they make their move you'll be completely finished..."

Everyone looked at Ye Bufan in astonishment, their eyes as if staring at a dead man.

Although according to the competition rules, one can only injure the physical body and not destroy a person's soul essence.

This way, there was still a glimmer of hope, but without a physical body, it would be difficult to attempt possession and rebirth. Even if successful, the cultivation level would be significantly lower than before.

Listening to the surrounding chatter and feeling the gazes of everyone, Ling Jiansi and his three disciples were somewhat terrified. If it weren't for the presence of the Supreme Sect Master beside them, they would have probably turned around and jumped off the stage.

Yet, Ye Bufan seemed to see nothing, a bright smile gracing his face.

"There's nothing I'm afraid of, I've said it all. I'm in control of this group of matches."

"Kid, you're insane. What makes you think you have the right to say such things"

Zhao Xingyun gritted his teeth, "Then let you see before you die, who is the real master!"

He originally wanted to strike directly, but now he changed his mind. He wanted the other party to see his abilities and then slowly die in despair.

Listen up, everyone. I'm in charge of this match. I want you to go and wipe out the Lingyun Sword Sect. Whoever performs best will get to advance with me.

Upon hearing his words, everyone in the audience involuntarily frowned.

It's quite obvious that Zhao Xingyun's actions are a bit shady, even bordering on unethical.

But before, the Master Wuhua had already announced the principle of the competition, which is that there are no principles.

No matter what happens on stage, the ultimate victors will be just two sects.

Because of this, although it was somewhat absurd, no one said anything, after all, it was the Zhao family's doing.

The other eight major sects on the stage, after a brief moment of astonishment, instantly erupted.

Before this, everyone had a sliver of hope, after all, this group was a little special, with only one seed team.

The Zhao family didn't dare to compare themselves, but they all wanted to get the remaining spot and become the lucky one in the whole competition.

Now the opportunity has arrived. As long as they handle the small matter of the Lingyun Sword Sect and satisfy the Zhao family, the remaining spot will belong to them.

These people showed no hesitation whatsoever, rushing over with eagerness.

At that very moment, a sharp sword light suddenly flashed, like lightning tearing through the sky. The dazzling light blinded everyone, and the chilling sword energy sent shivers down countless spines.

This sword strike was truly formidable, instantly leaving a gash half a foot deep and piercing through the platform.

Everyone was stunned. After all, this platform wasn't built from ordinary materials, but was a magic artifact.

The top is engraved with various defensive formations, possessing extremely strong defensive power.

Before this, even eight consecutive battles had left little trace. This woman accomplished it with a single sword strike, showing how powerful she is.ked, but she found that one was expressionless and the other looked calm, as if they hadn't heard the result at all.Especially this man in front of me, there was not a hint of fear in his eyes, more l...
