Starting With 100 Million Lives
Chapter 452: Fend For Yourselves
CHAPTER 452: CHAPTER 452: FEND FOR YOURSELVES
The injuries of the Profound Sea are not too serious, Brother Cheng can now control his strength well.
But the key is that this attack came from the Rule Brand, striking directly at the depths of his Immortal Country and Demon Soul.
It almost shattered his consciousness.
The Profound Sea, beaten dizzily, lay on the ground, struggling to get up, but only felt stars spinning before his eyes.
Before he passed out, he shivered a bit.
The dragon claw pointed towards Brother Cheng, expressing his strong sense of grievance.
"You promised... thirty percent..."
"You have no Demon Merit..."
Afterwards, he finally passed out simply.
The bubble disappeared, and this round ended with Brother Cheng’s victory once again.
"Azure Dragon Emperor claims another victory!"
The Sparrow Demons now considered Brother Cheng as one of their own, and immediately, cheers erupted as if they themselves had won.
"The Great Emperor settled his opponent with a single move, so powerful!"
Que Mi Quasi-Emperor was the first to praise from a new angle.
"The Azure Dragon Emperor didn’t even bother to act at first, only granting him one move after the Profound Sea begged persistently, and this move was enough for a lifetime!"
The other Sparrow Demons echoed.
"That’s right, that’s right, the Great Emperor is merciful, not killing to the last."
"To take a move from the Great Emperor is his fortune!"
"If I were Profound Sea, I’d follow the Great Emperor from now on to learn from him."
The Cyan Dragon Emperor, who had rushed down from the top hall to catch the Profound Sea, almost spat blood upon hearing these compliments.
Damn it, these Sparrow Demons really have sharp tongues.
"Aren’t you too harsh? Didn’t you agree on thirty percent force?"
"Are you bullying the honest Profound Sea?"
He had heard all the negotiations inside the bubble, but firstly, he couldn’t intervene, and secondly, he thought thirty percent force should be fine.
He even once thought that Cang Cheng had won two rounds by luck and became so arrogant that he forgot himself.
Now seeing the result, his heart broke.
The defeat of Profound Sea meant the Cyan Dragon Race wouldn’t advance to the top 32 this time.
And he finally ’suddenly realized’ that this guy had purposely dug a pit for Profound Sea.
Tricked him to stand still and then gave him a deadly blow with all his strength, too sinister!
"I didn’t, I really restrained a lot of power!"
Brother Cheng was very innocent.
I really only used thirty percent strength, I didn’t even stack some buffs.
The Cyan Dragon Emperor laughed in extreme anger: "Do you think I still believe you, you despicable shameless black sheep!"
"Once wasn’t enough for tricking me, and now you tricked my son too!"
"Mark my words!"
"Oh, I’m wronged..."
Brother Cheng wanted to explain, but the Great Emperor had already taken his son for healing far away, ignoring him completely.
An embarrassed Brother Cheng could only turn back to face the crowd’s shock, to compensate for his lost spirit.
This tournament is also a perfect place to gain Shock Value.
In three major battles, he has gained over a hundred million Merit so far, as each victory was surprising.
But this was mainly because there were too many matches happening at once and split into four groups, not every demon watched him the whole time.
As the number of matches remaining in the end becomes fewer, the attention and shock value should increase more and more.
"What just happened?"
"Why was Profound Sea standing still and taking hits?"
"Who knows, maybe it’s the Dragon Race’s internal strategy to abandon someone?"
"But if it’s really about strategic abandonment, why even attack, why not just concede?"
"What’s more, if someone were to give up, it should be Cang Cheng, allowing Profound Sea to continue."
"Perhaps it was agreed for Cang Cheng to give up initially, but he changed his mind, so Profound Sea was unprepared? Didn’t you see how angry the Cyan Dragon Emperor was?"
"Wow, this Azure Dragon Emperor is really cunning!"
"A miracle that an early-stage Quasi-Emperor can reach the top 64."
Brother Cheng listened to these discussions, feeling very angry.
He thought everyone should now be shocked by his true power.
Damn, it’s been three rounds, and you guys still think I’m a rookie?
Are you all blind?
Of course, not all demons were blind.
At this point, the Demon Emperors at the top level already saw his prowess.
Although they also thought that it definitely wasn’t thirty percent force just now but full force.
But even if it was full force, being able to take down the Profound Sea with one hit was astonishing enough.
Emperor Mo Lin and Yulin were both looking serious.
They were well aware that, if it were Qi Sheng, a full force strike could certainly injure the Profound Sea, but it couldn’t create such a huge impact as just now.
The Attack Power almost exceeded the limit of a Quasi-Emperor.
Fortunately, combat is not only about brute force but is highly complex, and overall strength should still allow for a fight.
Now, each group only has 16 left. After the next round, there would be only 8 left.
Each group of 8, exactly 32 in total.
By then, they would advance directly to the Earth Division.
Brother Cheng’s previous actions to ’buy Demon Heart’ made the two Qilin Emperors extremely apprehensive.
Plus the previous matter of the Azure Dragon Valley robbing the Qilin Race.
Among all the Quasi-Emperors present, they least wanted to see him enter the Earth Division.
Thus, he must be sniped in this round!
The two Great Emperors looked around before secretly transmitting to the not-so-distant Ear Mouse Emperor.
"Ear Mouse Emperor, could you trouble your race’s genius to defeat Cang Cheng in the next round!"
"This demon is malicious, if he enters the Earth Division, he’ll surely cause a lot of trouble in the future, it must be prevented!"
Besides Qi Sheng in the fourth group, there are also the Mouse Race, Deer Race, Insect Race, and several affiliated races’ Quasi-Emperors.
With the Insect Race being killed, those affiliated races’ Quasi-Emperors were not even as strong as Profound Sea, naturally unable to stop him.
Between the remaining Deer Race and Mouse Race, the undeniably stronger would be the genius from the Mouse Race.
In all three battles in the fourth group so far, he crushed the opponent in each match, leaving them with no power to fight back.
And the most critical point is that this demon’s combat style is elusive, never engaging directly with the opponent.
Using him to snipe Cang Cheng is the perfect choice!
However, as an ally of the Qilin Race, the Ear Mouse Emperor did not immediately agree when hearing this ’order’.
He debated for a moment and slowly transmitted back: "I think Qi Sheng is more suitable."
The expressions of the two Qilin Emperors darkened.
"Ear Mouse Emperor, what do you mean by this?"
"When it comes time to use you, how can you shirk your duty?"
The Ear Mouse Emperor squinted his sharp eyes slightly and said lightly: "This round concerns the entry into the Earth Division, extremely critical, I’m afraid he might make a mistake."
"Qi Sheng is different, he is a top formidable person able to enter the top three, with him fighting, it’s absolutely safe!"
The Mouse Race is known for its shrewdness, and he could also see that Jiang Cheng was very tricky.
If it were after reaching the top 32, it wouldn’t matter to face him then.
But now, this decisive round determines whether the Mouse Race’s status can rise a notch over the next billion years, he couldn’t possibly take the risk.
The two Qilin Emperors were extremely annoyed.
They didn’t want Qi Sheng to risk, hence why they put forth the Mouse Race.
"With this attitude from the Mouse Race, it will be hard to cooperate in the future."
The Ear Mouse Emperor didn’t want to break off with the Qilin Race.
He quickly said: "Emperor Mo Lin, it’s just a single trial, there’s no need to elevate it to such heights?"
Emperor Mo Lin was already angry, coldly leaving a word.
"You better watch yourselves!"
