Chapter 842: Negative Focus, Destined to Fail
CHAPTER 842: CHAPTER 842: NEGATIVE FOCUS, DESTINED TO FAIL
The faces of Elder Mo and the others turned crimson red, wishing they could find a hole to hide in.
Nu Guang, utterly useless.
At this moment, Tian Budian seized the opportunity and said, "Elder Mo, I resign from the position of Northern Land Deacon of East Plain. I now want to join the West Land."
Having said that, he scurried over to Ju Dan, nodding and bowing.
Though Ju Dan didn’t think much of him, it was indeed his recommendation that led to the appearance of the Ba Lie Venerable guide, and coupled with the opportunity to heavily strike against the Northern Land, Ju Dan accepted him without hesitation.
Then, Ju Dan mockingly said, "Mo Ya, you seem to be a little two-faced with me, and that’s bound to bring bad luck."
"Opposing me ends in disgrace, like now!"
Even though the Five Elders never stated they sided with Sikong Jing or planned to resist Ju Dan, all because of Hua Meixi’s presence, preventing them from dealing with Sikong Jing, Ju Dan could obviously see through their careful thoughts.
And he was warning them, don’t think Hua Meixi changes things somehow...
As Ju Dan’s words just fell, several more cries of agony emanated from the Domineering Pattern Array.
One by one, those from East Plain Northern Land were blasted out.
Astonishingly, ten individuals failed to pass the second round of Illusion Beasts, causing an irrepressible bout of laughter across the room, shaming the Five Elders to an extreme.
"Elder Mo, after this qualification battle, I think we all should bow to Ju Dan," said the cluster of deacons, except for Hua Lidian, all with flushed faces looking at Elder Mo and the other four. They simply could not bear such a blow.
Honestly, it wasn’t as disastrous in previous sessions.
The corners of the mouths of Elder Mo, Elder Ge, and the others twitched repeatedly. It was indeed terrible luck; the strength of the West Land and the Southern Land was unusually strong this session, whereas our Northern Land’s qualification battle was utterly pathetic, bringing disgrace all the way to our ancestors.
However, Lang Zhengzhi took a deep breath, suddenly shouted, "Laugh if you will, but our East Plain Northern Land can at least seize a sword; our Sikong Jing will surely seize one."
At these words, the whole scene grew still.
Elder Mo and the other four elders gazed at Lang Zhengzhi, wondering where his confidence came from?
But Lang Zhengzhi’s eyes sparkled because Sikong Jing just said that the Domineering Pattern Array contains elements of the Soldier Killing Array, because Sikong Jing said he could one hundred percent seize a sword!
With Lang Zhengzhi’s words, everyone’s gaze refocused on Sikong Jing.
Someone muttered quietly, "I didn’t notice earlier, what realm is the one-armed kid in, for Lang Zhengzhi to have such confidence?"
The next moment, Sikong Jing’s True Qi aura was displayed before everyone, and those who were wary due to Lang Zhengzhi’s words were stunned, then each person’s expression turned exaggerated.
"Ha, hahaha..."
Laughter first erupted from Ju Dan’s mouth, then from Ju Hua, and soon everyone excluding those from East Plain Northern Land joined in.
The entire hall was filled with mocking laughter.
"Lang Zhengzhi, you’re saying that Sikong Jing is that one-armed kid, right?"
"He’s only in the Dao Inquiry Realm."
"Have you recently become senile? From earlier until now, has anyone from Dao Inquiry Realm seized a sword?"
A decision-maker from the Southern Land addressed Lang Zhengzhi, and the whole room could hardly contain their laughter.
The laughter heavily burdened the Northern Land deacons, making them uncomfortable, wondering what Elder Lang was doing. Not only did he refuse to bow to Ju Dan, but he publicly supported Sikong Jing, leading to thorough ridicule from the whole scene.
Was he aiming to heap even more disgrace upon the Northern Land?
At this point, Ju Dan chuckled derisively, "Lang Zhengzhi, are you intentionally making a fool of Sikong Jing to pledge loyalty? Fine, I completely forgive you, and I promise I won’t trouble you in the future, hahaha..."
These words left the Northern Land deacons in a daze; was Elder Lang indeed planning this?
"No, Sikong Jing will surely seize the sword, and soon you won’t be able to laugh," Lang Zhengzhi’s voice turned cold. He was truly fed up, stifled since Ju Dan’s grand success.
He couldn’t help but erupt, standing by Sikong Jing’s side, betting on Sikong Jing.
Unfortunately, everyone still treated it as a joke, placing no stock in Lang Zhengzhi’s words, and someone even said, "Then I’d really like to see how Elder Lang will make us stop laughing..."
Next, everyone’s gaze refocused on Sikong Jing, eagerly watching.
Meanwhile, at the obscure window on the second floor of the hall, Yao Yuzhi lazily spoke.
"This Sikong Jing is interesting; casually entering only to become the center of attention, albeit negatively."
"A Dao Inquiry Realm can’t pass the Domineering Pattern Array; not one in Northern Land can."
Regarding this, Hua Meixi did not rebut, also staring at Sikong Jing...
She didn’t know why, but she just didn’t feel like speaking, because every time she doubted Sikong Jing, she ended up embarrassed.
That was incredibly frustrating.
At this moment, within the Domineering Pattern Array, Sikong Jing, of course, could hear the voices outside, yet his expression remained unchanged from start to finish, advancing and obliterating the Illusionary demon beasts or humanoid warriors.
He didn’t intentionally speed up, maintaining the same pace as Chou Zhan and Guo Zixia.
"Ah!"
As they reached the midline area, another scream rang out as Ling Feiyan was eliminated.
Sikong Jing continued at the same pace, afterward Shang Fu was eliminated, and then it was Fu Jiaoxing’s turn. As over two-thirds of the Domineering Pattern Array was surpassed, only four from East Plain Northern Land remained.
Sikong Jing, Chou Zhan, Guo Zixia, and an unexpected person... Gongyang Ying.
At this moment, eliminated Ling Feiyan widened her eyes, exclaiming incredulously, "What the hell, when did that wretch Gongyang Ying become so formidable? When did she reach the Third Realm of Dao Inquiry?"
Her voice was unabashed, and Gongyang Ying heard every word clearly...
Quietly answering in her heart, "Because Hua Meixi aroused my Moon Soul Battle Body, making leaps and bounds in progress."
However, shortly after, Gongyang Ying’s face lit up with realization.
She realized she couldn’t defeat the humanoid warriors conjured in front of her unless she unleashed the full power of the Moon Soul Battle Body...
Glancing back at those outside the Domineering Pattern Array, Gongyang Ying hesitated, pondering whether to erupt now or not?
"Don’t erupt; even if you do, you won’t seize a sword; conceal yourself first."
At this moment, a gentle soft voice whispered into Gongyang Ying’s ear, as she looked up to see it was none other than Sikong Jing.
After opening and closing her mouth, Gongyang Ying finally nodded seriously, decisively retreating.
And just as she withdrew, Guo Zixia also emitted a painful cry, being blasted out of the Domineering Pattern Array by humanoid warriors at the same place as Gongyang Ying, eliminating two more in an instant, leaving only Sikong Jing and Chou Zhan.
The pair continued side by side, merely a few steps away from the two swords before them.
Chou Zhan met the penultimate fearsome Illusion Beast, locked in fierce battle, while Sikong Jing did the same.
The whole scene was watching the duo, and Ju Hua casually remarked, "This swordsman is at the Golden Body First Realm. He’ll stop here... As for Sikong Jing, he indeed has some skills, but he too can’t advance any further."
Reaching the penultimate Illusion Beast at the Fifth Realm of Dao Inquiry was already remarkable.
The crowd lightly nodded; it was destined that Northern Land couldn’t seize a sword, and someone even shouted at the duo, "Hurry up and give up; don’t waste our precious time..."
