Yao Han and Li Hui stood at opposite ends of the execution platform, facing each other. One looked solemn, while the other looked cold and mocking, both staring intently into each other's eyes.

The spectators in the surrounding seats gradually quieted down and stopped talking, their eyes turning to the stage.

Moments later, two astonishing auras exploded simultaneously in the arena, and a powerful gust of wind and waves rippled outwards from the two of them, instantly turning the calm water into a raging torrent!

At that very moment, some cultivators with keen senses noticed the anomaly:

"How come one is at the ninth level of Qi Refining and the other is a Foundation Establishment cultivator?"

These words immediately sparked a noisy discussion in the room.

"What the hell? It's just Foundation Establishment Qi Refining? Do we even need to see the result?"

"Does this kid even know that the person opposite him is a Foundation Establishment cultivator? Could he have been set up?"

"Senior Fang, you specially called everyone over just to show us this?"

"What are you talking about? I didn't call you, you came here on your own!"

Fang Tingyu, standing in the crowd, rolled her eyes: "Besides, who said that Qi Refining cultivators can't beat Foundation Establishment cultivators? Don't underestimate them."

It sounds like Fang Tingyu thinks highly of Yao Han, but I don't know why.

However, only a minority of people believed Yao Han could win; most were not optimistic about him. Some even left their seats without even watching, seeing the vast difference in strength between the two.

"This Foundation Establishment senior exudes murderous intent; he's clearly not someone to be trifled with! Tsk tsk tsk, what a pity for this young man. He finally managed to cultivate to the peak of Qi Refining, and now he's likely to perish here!"

"This person's aura is quite strong, seemingly stronger than that of an ordinary ninth-level cultivator?"

"He might have cultivated some special technique. So what? Unless he can pull out two or three top-grade magic artifacts in one go, there's nothing to see. Otherwise, it's just a matter of him being slapped!"

"Come on, anyone want to place a bet? I'll bet ten spirit stones on this Foundation Establishment senior to win!"

"Come on, there's no need to gamble on this. He definitely can't win. It's just a matter of how long he can last!"

Sitting next to Song Zhiyu, Yao Ailan listened to the various mocking and sarcastic remarks coming from all around her, and couldn't help but tightly clutch her collar.

Brother, you have to win!

On the field, Yao Han's presence was still overshadowed by his opponent, but he still stood firmly on the stage with his legs straight.

He is still observing and has not made any rash moves.

On the other side, Li Hui stared for a long time before suddenly speaking:

"To remain so calm in the face of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, you do have some skill. However, excessive arrogance is not a good thing!"

He gave a cold laugh, his body slumped down, and he gripped a huge double-edged demon axe in his hand. The axe blade was as wide as half a person, and the blade was covered with strange and twisted patterns. There was also a demon face carved from white bone inlaid on the handle.

With an axe in his left hand and a hand seal in his right, three ghostly gray figures, like will-o'-the-wisps, suddenly appeared from his side and spun rapidly around his body. Then, he stomped his left foot on the ground and transformed into a streak of gray-black light, rushing straight toward Yao Han at a speed that was astonishing!

Upon seeing the three dark gray figures, Yao Han showed a look of great surprise, but he was not stunned. He flicked his hand at his waist, and three detonating talismans appeared between his fingers, which he threw forward at different speeds.

The three talismans flew slowly, but they struck Li Hui precisely in his path. He frowned, not wanting to resist, and awkwardly dodged them.

After the flames and smoke from the explosion dissipated, the escape light paused for a moment, then resumed its attack on Yao Han in the same manner. The gray-black figure flickered and elusive, following closely behind.

"..."

Yao Han tried his best to control his expression and cast three more talismans. Li Hui frowned even more and stumbled off his original route.

"With your refined spiritual sense, you actually managed to see through my footwork?"

Faced with Li Hui's question, Yao Han simply smiled and replied with two words:

"I've seen it."

"Playing tricks! Let's go!"

Li Hui hoisted the giant axe onto his shoulder, pointed his right hand at Yao Han, and three ghostly figures flashed and pounced on him.

Yao Han neither dodged nor evaded. He made a hand seal, and a three-foot-long sword shadow, gleaming with golden light, appeared in front of him. With a change of finger technique, he casually exhaled a ball of fire!

With precise control of magic power and divine sense, fireballs formed into lines and wrapped around the sword. With a swing of the arm, the sword shadow split into three, and flames rolled and blazed on the blade!

"go!"

With a low shout, golden light and flames merged and intertwined, transforming into three long rainbows that shot straight through the air!

A crimson rainbow streaked across the sky, accurately hitting the path of the three ghosts. The ghostly figures were intercepted midway, their bodies twisting and contorting as if they were screaming in pain.

Li Hui's eyes flashed with shock and anger, and he suddenly transmitted his voice:

"Who are you? How can you always see through my magic?!"

Yao Han finally couldn't hold back anymore, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

Because this person was practicing his natal cultivation technique from his previous life, the Three Ghosts Reincarnation Technique!

This technique is not unique to the Demon Palace, but the Demon Palace has a more comprehensive record of it, while what is circulated outside is mostly fragmentary and isolated texts.

The most distinctive feature of the Three Ghosts Revolving Wheel Technique is that when casting the spell, three ghost-like gray shadows will appear around the body. They resemble ghosts, but they are not ghost magic. They are just the external manifestation of the demonic energy in the body. The three ghosts surround the body and attack and destroy in one. They also have the miraculous effect of increasing escape speed.

The deeper one's cultivation, the more solid the appearance of these "three ghosts" becomes. At the highest level of cultivation, they can even have the wondrous effect of captivating people's minds.

However, this technique also has a fatal flaw. One of them is that it is most afraid of extremely yang and intense techniques and treasures, and is naturally countered by metal and fire elemental spells!

This was completely beyond Yao Han's expectations. His original plan did not include the cultivation method the other party practiced, which saved him a lot of trouble.

Yao Han dared to say that he understood the advantages and disadvantages of this technique better than anyone else in the world. After all, he had been tormented by this technique in his previous life!

This is why Li Hui's every move can be predicted in advance.

Moreover, the opponent's Three Ghosts Technique was clearly not up to par, otherwise he wouldn't have been so easily countered by Yao Han's magic.

However, this scene presented a completely different picture to the onlookers:

"Huh, why does it seem like this young man is suppressing all the spells cast by this Foundation Establishment senior?"

"This guy seems to have some skill; daring to challenge a Foundation Establishment cultivator shows he's got some ability!"

"Tch, it's probably just a coincidence. Anyone can throw talismans; I could do it too!"

……

"Huh, Zhiyu, if I'm not mistaken, Brother Yao actually managed to suppress his opponent? That's simply unbelievable!"

Sitting in his seat, Zhou Yunli was amazed by the scene before him.

Song Zhiyu kept her beautiful eyes fixed on the scene: "Yes, it seems that Brother Yao is very familiar with this person's technique, and even knows exactly how to restrain himself. Otherwise, it would be difficult to achieve such remarkable results with his Qi Refining cultivation."

"Brother—go for it—beat this savage into the water—"

……

"See? I told you! This person possesses profound magical power and is no ordinary Qi Refining Level 9 cultivator. Even if he were to truly contend with this Foundation Establishment cultivator who practices ghost magic, he might not necessarily be at a disadvantage. This is going to be quite a show!"

On the north side, Fang Tingyu, standing in the crowd, was talking animatedly to her two followers.

"Yes, yes, yes, Senior Sister has such keen insight and such a gifted supernatural ability as the 'True Eye of Insight,' how can we ordinary disciples compare to her..."

"What do you mean? Hey, I'm not bragging, I'm trying to reason with you!"

Fang Tingyu raised her fist and slammed it down on the head of the sycophantic lackey.

……

"...Brother Li! This kid is strange. Let's not delay any longer and finish this quickly!"

Outside, Cao Li was already dumbfounded and quickly sent a telepathic message to Li Hui.

"I don't need you to remind me!"

Seeing that his signature technique was repeatedly suppressed by a Qi Refining cultivator, Li Hui was furious, his eyes burning with rage.

"I'll show you the true difference between Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining!"
