Immortality and cultivation: Heaven rewards diligence, and success is inevitable.

Chapter 332 He arrived

Long Yunshuang took a few steps back, retracted her dragon claws, and her dragon scales slowly faded away, restoring her hands to their original state.

She took a deep breath and calmly said, "A draw."

Fang Tianxing gasped for breath, his sweat and blood mingling and dripping onto the stone slab.

He looked at her, then said, "You are stronger than me!"

"But this is not a life-or-death battle. I want to beat you, but it's absolutely impossible in a short time!" Long Yunshuang said very frankly.

Fang Tianxing and Long Yunshuang are not too far apart in strength; it can be said that their strength is roughly equal, with Fang Tianxing at 40% and Long Yunshuang at 60%.

The two had no deep-seated hatred for each other, so naturally they wouldn't fight to the death!

Fang Tianxing was not one to be pretentious; he immediately clasped his hands in thanks and said, "Thank you."

Long Yunshuang turned around and stepped down from the stone platform.

Long Yuanhai announced: "A draw."

Fang Jia has one win, one loss, and one draw.

Fang Tian walked back to his seat and sat down directly.

Neither Fang Han nor Fang Lin spoke; they simply watched him silently.

Fang Zhenyue opened his eyes, looked at Fang Tianxing, and only said one sentence: "From now on, we'll have to rely on you!"

Fang Tianxing nodded without saying anything more.

At the Chen family's seat, Chen Xuanji kept his eyes closed, resting.

At this moment, he opened his eyes, stood up, and straightened his robes.

Chen Xuanshu asked, "Brother, is it your turn to face Tianxing next?"

"Fang Tianxing is no match for me. The one I'm truly concerned about is that person." Chen Xuanji said, glancing in the direction of the Wei family.

There, a somewhat dashing young man from the Wei family was idly sprawled on the table.

Meanwhile, at the Long family's seats, Long Yuntian leaned close to Long Yunshuang and whispered, "Sister, just how strong is Chen Xuanji's fourth tribulation?"

Long Yunshuang leaned against the pillar, her gaze fixed on Fang Tianxing.

"Three months ago, during an internal sparring session within the Chen family, he faced three late-stage Golden Core elders. He fought against all three of them single-handedly, and those three elders couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes."

"The fourth tribulation of the Nine Tribulations Secret Manual is called the Wind and Thunder Incarnation. He transforms himself into the power of wind and thunder, and his speed is so fast that even the spiritual sense of a Golden Core stage cultivator cannot catch up with him. His attacks are accompanied by wind and thunder shockwaves, and the true essence of those who are hit will be scattered. I cannot withstand this tribulation, and Fang Tianxing cannot withstand it either."

Long Yuntian remained silent for a moment before asking, "Then, in this generation of the four great families of Central Continent, isn't Chen Xuanji the number one?"

Long Yunshuang did not answer. She suddenly looked at the other side of the stage, at the Wei family's seats.

"No, that one is number one," she said.

"That one? Didn't he just break through to the Golden Core stage?" Long Yuntian asked with some surprise.

"Could it be? The rumors about his immortality are true?"

Long Yunshuang withdrew her gaze and said earnestly, "That's right, he is the next head of the Wei family! He is also the most terrifying person in the entire Central Continent."

Long Yuanhai stood at the highest point of the viewing platform, his voice echoing throughout the entire arena.

Fang's current record: one win, one loss, and one draw.

The defending champion, Chen Xuanji, has not yet made his move. According to the rules, the Fang family must send another person to fight Chen Xuanji.

The winner will receive the "Golden Lotus Heart Flame," while the loser will receive nothing. If no one from the Fang family accepts the challenge, it will be considered a forfeit, and Chen Xuanji will automatically win.

All eyes were on the Fang family's seats.

Those reflections contained sympathy, mockery, curiosity, and schadenfreude.

Fang Tianxing stood up, and Fang Han pulled him back, wanting to say something, but he opened his mouth and couldn't utter a word.

Fang Lin lowered his head, the cold light from the Frost Sword particularly dazzling.

Fang Zhenyue closed his eyes and tapped his fingers lightly on his knees.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Fang Tianxing reassured Fang Han.

After saying that, Fang Tianxing turned around and walked straight toward the stone platform.

At the Chen family's seat, Chen Xuanji watched Fang Tianxing approach with a blank expression.

Chen Xuanshu said in a low voice, "Brother, Fang Tianxing actually dared to go on stage. Isn't he afraid you'll beat him to death?"

Chen Xuanji did not answer; his gaze was fixed on the Wei family's seats.

"He's not the one I'm waiting for," Chen Xuanji said softly.

He stood up, straightened his robes, and walked towards the stone platform.

Chen Xuanji was unsure of Wei Wushang's purpose in coming here—whether he was just there to join in the fun or had genuinely taken a liking to the strange fire.

It's unclear whether Wei Wushang will make a move!

At the Long family's table, Long Yuntian watched Fang Tianxing's retreating figure as he walked alone toward the stone platform, feeling a pang of pity.

He asked Long Yunshuang, "Sister, how long can Fang Tianxing hold on?"

Long Yunshuang leaned against a pillar, arms crossed, her gaze fixed on Fang Tianxing.

"If he tries to stall, he should be able to hold out for half an hour without any problem."

"Half an hour?"

Long Yuntian remained silent and glanced at the Fang family's seats.

"The Fang family is really going to be defeated here today," Long Yuntian said in a low voice.

Fang Tian walked up the stone platform. He walked slowly, but each step was steady.

After climbing onto the stone platform, he stood opposite Chen Xuanji, three zhang away.

"If you admit defeat now, perhaps I will spare your life," Chen Xuanji said expressionlessly.

He didn't take Fang Tianxing seriously. Chen Xuanji believed that even if Fang Tianxing and Long Yunshuang fought to a draw, he could easily kill Fang Tianxing.

"The Fang family will never admit defeat!" Fang Tianxing said, enunciating each word clearly.

Even knowing he would lose and that his life might be in danger, Fang Tianxing did not back down in the slightest!

Chen Xuanji nodded and said in a cold voice, "Good, very good."

As soon as he finished speaking, the golden sword appeared out of thin air, its golden-red light illuminating the entire stone platform.

Just as he was about to make his move, a loud boom came from the sky.

It wasn't thunder, it wasn't an explosion, it was the sound of air being torn apart.

It felt like something was approaching at an incredible speed, tearing through the sky and making people's eardrums hurt.

Everyone looked up.

On the horizon, a five-colored ray of light was approaching at an incredible speed.

Gold, cyan, blue, red, and brown—five colors intertwine, like a rainbow stretching across the sky, or a five-colored shooting star.

The rosy light grew brighter and closer, enveloping the entire Luoxingtan (Falling Star Pool) in five-colored rays, reflecting off the pool's water in a spectrum of colors.

Someone in the stands exclaimed, "What is that?!"

Long Yuanhai stood up.

His chair slid back three feet without him noticing.

For the first time, he released his early Nascent Soul stage aura without reservation, his expression solemn, his gaze fixed on the radiant light.

Chen Xuanji removed his hand from the sword hilt, and the sword tip pointed towards the ground.

He looked up at the rosy glow, his expression solemn.

Long Yunshuang's eyes widened slightly. Her dragon eyes caught sight of a figure in the rosy light.

He was dressed in black, expressionless, with a low-grade spiritual artifact hanging at his waist and a storage bracelet on his wrist.

Five-colored light wheels floated around him, slowly rotating; these were the Five Elements Wheels.

His aura was calm and deep, indicating he was in the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm, but the solidity of his five-colored true essence surprised even Long Yunshuang.

"A top-grade Five Elements Golden Elixir!" The surrounding rogue cultivators all exclaimed in surprise!

Jiang Shi descended from the sky and landed in front of everyone.
