High-Level Martial Era

The first battle, Yin Man won.

...

The second match, Yin Man battles Nevsky.

In this battle, Nevsky unleashed terrifying strength, with his axe technique fierce to the extreme... but in front of Yin Man, who went all out, after clashing for over three hundred moves, Nevsky still ended up defeated.

...

The third match, Li Yuan battles Alicia.

In this battle, Li Yuan won with ease; Alicia did not unleash her "Fifth Stage Intermediate Rank" power.

"Alicia is probably going to lose four straight."

"In terms of strength, Alicia is probably the weakest, bound to be the last."

"Last place? Even if Alicia loses every match, she's still ranked fifth in the world!"

...In the fourth match, Nevsky battles Alicia, Nevsky wins.

...In the fifth match, Nevsky battles Harmon, both are extremely skilled attackers.

Likewise.

Both Nevsky and Harmon were very clear in their hearts, they had both already lost to Yin Man.

Li Yuan? They also regarded him as a formidable opponent in their hearts.

So, this battle was critically important.

"Top three."

"Defeat the opponent to firmly advance into the top three."

"Only by making it into the top three can one obtain a spot in the Martial God Inheritance." Both Nevsky and Harmon knew this very well.

Ordinary students were unaware of the Martial God Inheritance, but they had been informed by their teachers and seniors long ago.

Only the top three could go to Feixing to get a spot for the Martial God Inheritance.

If they couldn't make it into the top three? Then they would have to wait for the federation's high-level members to choose someone, and their fates would no longer be in their own hands.

Geniuses, for the most part, despised the feeling of having their fates controlled by others.

"Fight!"

The battle between Nevsky and Harmon was extremely brutal, and finally, after a fierce struggle of over a thousand rounds, Nevsky, badly injured,

swung his battle axe and viciously decapitated Harmon.

"Haha! I won! I'm very likely going to Feixing now." Nevsky, the burly man from the Extreme North, rarely showed a hint of excitement.

...

"Lost, and fate is no longer in my own control," sighed Harmon's Flying Heaven Warrior teacher.

First losing to Yin Man, then to Nevsky.

Harmon was left with only a theoretical chance to make it into the top three.

...

In the sixth match, Yin Man battles Alicia, Yin Man wins.

By now, Yin Man had completed three consecutive victories, just one more win over Li Yuan, she could become the final champion.

...

In the seventh match, Harmon battles Alicia, Harmon wins.

Alicia suffers four straight losses, locking in fifth place ahead of time.

...

In the eighth match, Harmon battles Li Yuan.

In this battle, Harmon went all out, trying to grab a theoretical chance to advance.

Theoretically, as long as he defeated Li Yuan, and Li Yuan then defeated Nevsky, then all three would have a record of 2 wins and 2 losses, and a tiebreaker would have to be held.

It was just too bad.

The more it was a theoretical possibility, the less hope there was.

In this battle, Li Yuan completely abandoned defense, met attack with attack, and eventually defeated Harmon in a rather precarious victory.

"His sword technique should have just stepped into the Fifth Stage Intermediate Rank not long ago," Li Yuan judged vaguely in his heart.

Although the "Meaning of the Stellar" that Li Yuan had comprehended was not specialized in attacking, as long as his skills were visibly superior, even in an offensive clash, he could still come out victorious.

Following this battle.

The top three had already been decided by the number of victories — Yin Man, Li Yuan, Nevsky.

...

"The top three have been decided."

"The three of them going to Feixing? Indeed, they are all excellent," the Flying Heaven Warriors discussed with one another in the higher Spectator Space.

"The last two matches."

"Let's see who will be the ultimate first place."

...

In the ninth match, Li Yuan battles Nevsky.

Above the stage, the two men faced each other from a distance.

"It seems, the order of the battles keeps changing," Nevsky, holding his battle axe, smiled broadly: "The high levels, they probably want to keep the suspense of the final first place until the end."

"It seems so," Li Yuan smiled and nodded.

"I've already lost to Yin Man, her strength is too terrifying...I'm doomed not to take first place, second or third makes no difference to me," Nevsky said earnestly: "However, I won't give up without a fight."

"I know you're strong, but to defeat me, bring out all your strength," Nevsky fixed his gaze on Li Yuan.

He had studied Li Yuan early on, and after watching the previous fights, he knew how formidable Li Yuan was.

"Alright,"

"As a sign of respect for you, I will also bring out my true strength," Li Yuan smiled and nodded, holding a favorable impression of the man from the Extreme North.

"True strength?" Nevsky's eyes gleamed.

He understood Li Yuan's meaning; he hadn't used all his strength against Harmon.

Boom!

Nevsky immediately made his move, with the battle axe, a heavy weapon, yet incredibly agile in his hands.

Whoosh!

A dazzling axe light cut across the sky.

"Boom!"

Li Yuan's long spear also burst forth in an instant, the tip dancing as if it were channeling the stars from beyond, instantly turning the spear light into a galaxy, slamming against Nevsky's battle axe.

"Bang~" The collision was tremendous, sending Nevsky hurtling backward.

He flew nearly ten meters before stopping hard, while Li Yuan still stood his ground.

"How is this possible!" Nevsky almost cried out, his eyes filled with shock.

...

"What?"

"This spear technique?"

"It has truly harnessed the power of heaven and earth! No doubt about it."

"A true monster!"

"True Intent special move!"

"Definitely a True Intent special move! To have just entered the Fifth Stage Intermediate Rank not long ago and already comprehended a True Intent special move?" In the higher Spectator Space, the group of Flying Heaven Warriors, who were originally quite composed, discussing with each other, now had faces full of shock.
