Chapter 152 The Last Champion

After a Cultivator breaks through to the Golden Core Realm, their control over spiritual power will be greatly enhanced, making it easy to attack with multiple Magic Treasures simultaneously.

To ensure Ye Fan's death, Ye Feng even took out all his trump cards at once, actually summoning seven Magic Treasures!

Although their grades were inferior to the meteorite blade, they were at least Medium Grade Magic Treasures, with the rest being high-grade magic treasures. Such wealth would make even the Sect Heads of the Nine Sects envious.

"Die!"

Flying Swords, battle blades, magic seals, long spears, and seven other Magic Treasures came down like a deluge, completely sealing off all escape routes for Ye Fan. The power of this strike far surpassed the Four Symbols Dao Sword that Dao Xuan once displayed.

But Ye Fan still maintained that indifferent appearance, as if he hadn't taken Ye Feng's attack to heart at all.

"Greed for quantity over quality; sometimes, the more Magic Treasures, the worse it is."

Ye Feng had forcibly broken through to the Golden Core Realm, so his Foundation was inherently unstable. Now, summoning so many Magic Treasures at once meant he couldn't exert their full power.

Unfortunately, he was already blinded by rage and paid no heed to these considerations.

Ye Fan smiled and summoned the Great Five Elements Formation Flags, swiftly forming the Five Elements Returning to Ruin Formation around himself. Its powerful defense far exceeded what outsiders could imagine.

"A Formation? Heh, watch me smash your turtle shell!"

Ye Feng revealed a ferocious smile, pushing the power of the seven Magic Treasures to the extreme, smashing them down towards the Five Elements Returning to Ruin Formation like a torrent.

Accompanied by terrifying roars, the entire Martial Arts Practice Field trembled incessantly. The powerful spiritual explosion was like a nuclear detonation, kicking up dust hundreds of meters high.

The various Sect Heads watching from outside the arena felt their hearts leap into their throats, secretly calculating whether they could survive unscathed if they were in that position.

Su Ningxue's beautiful eyes were filled with worry. If she hadn't retained a sliver of rationality, she would have already found a way to rush in and save him.

After the strike, Ye Feng seemed to have his entire spiritual power drained. The seven Magic Treasures instantly lost contact and fell to the ground one after another.

He himself was gasping for breath, his face so pale that not a trace of blood showed, clearly suffering from excessive power depletion.

Although he had ruined his future path, seeing Ye Fan utterly annihilated, Ye Feng finally managed to slam the brakes on his path toward Qi Deviation.

He planned to return to the Sect and use some Heaven And Earth Treasure to repair his inner elixir, minimizing the impact of his premature Core Formation.

But before Ye Feng could smile, the scene before his eyes changed rapidly. After the sky-obscuring smoke and dust dispersed, Ye Fan's figure appeared before everyone, completely unharmed.

Forget being annihilated; Ye Fan didn't even seem to have a scratch on him.

A single Formation Flag taken out might be insignificant, but once arranged into a Formation, its power could rival a Spirit Treasure. Even a Golden Core Realm Cultivator would need considerable effort to break it, let alone Ye Feng, who had just entered the Core Formation Realm.

This time, even the usually calm Fairy Han Yue was somewhat unsettled, unable to believe Ye Fan had easily blocked this attack.

She believed her assessment of Ye Fan was already quite high, but now it seemed she had misjudged him.

"The day of the Ascension Assembly will be the time he makes his name known to the world."

After this blow, Ye Feng had no fighting strength left. In contrast, Ye Fan seemed completely fine. Who won and who lost was already clear.

"Night guy, are you going to keep fighting?"

Ye Fan kindly offered a reminder, but to Ye Feng, it sounded like naked humiliation.

"No... it's not over! Even if I have to burn my inner elixir, I will kill you!"

Ye Feng was completely insane this time, almost akin to suffering Qi Deviation, actually planning to burn his inner elixir for power.

He had already forcibly broken through to the Core Formation Realm, leading to an unstable Foundation. Burning his inner elixir again would undoubtedly compound the injury, equivalent to severing his own cultivation path.

"Why bother?"

Ye Fan sighed, clearly not wanting things to escalate to that point.

Ye Fan's figure flashed with incredible speed, appearing behind Ye Feng almost instantaneously.

Before he could even burn his inner elixir, Ye Fan knocked him unconscious with a single strike. The man collapsed onto the ground like a pile of mud.

"Saving your life, it's not too much to take some things, right?"

Ye Fan chuckled and collected all seven Magic Treasures scattered on the ground.

After this exchange, even if he got no rewards from the trial, these Magic Treasures were enough to make Ye Fan laugh out loud.

The competition ended, and the unconscious Ye Feng was teleported outside the arena. Only then did the Prodigies from the Central Continent snap back to their senses and rush forward to rescue him.

After an examination confirmed his life was not in danger, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. But when they looked at Ye Fan again, their eyes were filled with terror.

The mighty first-ranked Prodigy on the hidden dragon ranking, the Dao Son of the top power in the Central Continent, the Creation Gate, had been defeated by Ye Fan so easily.

The entire process couldn't even be called a fight; it was a one-sided crushing defeat.

At this point, no one dared to mention the term 'Southwest native' again. In their hearts, Ye Fan had already become an unattainable existence.

"You're showing off again."

Su Ningxue couldn't help but mutter under her breath, but the smile on her lips was impossible to suppress.

Murong Wan and You Tan also let out a breath of relief, excitement flashing in their beautiful eyes.

After today's battle, Ye Fan's name would likely become famous throughout the world.

Before everyone could process what happened, the second match of the semi-finals quickly concluded. The victor was, without a doubt, Fairy Han Yue.

Even though both were Prodigies ranked in the top ten of the hidden dragon ranking, the gap between them was still astonishing.

She had crushed her opponent as easily as Ye Fan had dealt with Ye Feng.

The final match was set between Ye Fan and Fairy Han Yue. By now, the Prodigies of the Central Continent no longer hoped Fairy Han Yue could win; they only hoped she could lose gracefully, saving some face for everyone.

But contrary to everyone's expectations, Fairy Han Yue voluntarily conceded before the final even began.

"I forfeit. This match is yours."

Fairy Han Yue's light words left everyone present stunned, but upon careful thought, it seemed reasonable.

After all, even Ye Feng, ranked first on the hidden dragon ranking, had lost. For Fairy Han Yue to fight now would only bring her self-humiliation. It was better to save her strength and go home early.

With that, all three rounds of the trial concluded, and it was finally time for the trial Formation to judge the results.

Everyone was teleported back in front of the trial Formation, quietly awaiting the final judgment.

This silent atmosphere made everyone somewhat nervous, even Ye Fan felt a faint sense of anticipation.

"I wonder if the Divine Ability and Cultivation Technique rewarded can actually be Cultivated. If not, this anticipation was all for nothing," Ye Fan thought with some resignation.

After an unknown amount of time, a line of text suddenly lit up on the trial Formation.

"Zhou Zong is rewarded with one Yellow Rank High Grade Divine Ability Cultivation Technique."

"Zhou Zong?"

This name was too unfamiliar. Everyone present seemed to be hearing it for the first time, looking at each other as if searching for the name's owner.

The first to react was the Sect Head of the Qingtian Sword Sect; Zhou Zong turned out to be a Disciple from his Sect.

After a comprehensive evaluation, Zhou Zong only obtained a Yellow Rank High Grade Divine Ability.

This result left him very disappointed; it was clearly just a participation prize.
