1029: The third prince died

At this very moment.

In another bustling City.

The Qianhai Country First Team, under the watchful eyes of the masses, was battling a nameless, little-known team of ordinary individuals.

Initially.

Everyone believed this battle held no suspense and that the Third Prince of Qianhai Country would ultimately lead the Qianhai Country First Team to a smooth and final victory!

In fact, the battle unfolded just as everyone had predicted.

In the individual elimination rounds, the Third Prince, as the Captain, had already achieved a one-versus-four victory, directly securing 4 points for the team and drawing cheers and applause from everyone present.

The Third Prince, amidst these praises, looked quite pleased.

At the same time, he decisively challenged the opponent's fifth person!

He was aiming for a one-versus-seven!

A one-versus-seven feat had been accomplished by at least ten Heavenly Pride individuals from yesterday to today.

The proud Third Prince naturally refused to be left behind!

However, the outcome of the fifth battle was something no one had anticipated!

The Third Prince of Qianhai Country... died in this battle!

Under everyone's gaze, and with the Referee still on the stage, Qian Sanzi simply collapsed to the ground during an exchange with his opponent, his vital signs instantly vanishing!

This situation caused the previously heated battlefield to instantly fall silent.

It was like a two-meter-tall strong man walking and then tripping and falling to his death on flat ground!

People exchanged whispers, uttering meaningless words.

Within the Qianhai Country Royal Family, several experts with terrifying auras immediately stepped forward.

And after confirming that Qian Sanzi was truly dead, the Supreme Experts of the Qianhai Country Royal Family were completely stiffened, filled with disbelief.

Turning their heads, several of them immediately locked their predatory gaze onto Qian Sanzi's opponent!

"You killed him?! Damn it!"

Qian Sanzi's Teacher stared intently at the opponent, then, at the Peak of his rising anger, he suddenly struck out with a palm towards the young man on the stage!

The surging power fluctuations that swept out made it almost impossible for bystanders to keep their eyes open!

And the young man caught in this attack's lock, his face full of panic, cried out, proclaiming his innocence.

But in the end, it was useless.

The individuals overseeing this battle zone were just a few Grand Sage Masters, and they were utterly incapable of making a move to stop him!

"Third Teacher, no!" Although the other Supreme of Qianhai Country were angry, they still managed to remain calm.

Seeing the Third Prince's Teacher directly taking action at this moment, they paused their breathing and shouted loudly to stop him.

But they could only transmit their voices and were unable to intervene in time.

"Boom!"

The ground shook violently, and the Third Prince's opponent was directly killed by his Teacher's palm strike, turning into a puddle of flesh!

This scene caused everyone watching the match to gasp in cold air!

"What are you Qianhai Country doing?!"

"Killing a Student of my academy on the spot, is there no rule, no Heaven's law anymore?!"

In the opponent's academy, the leading Teacher at the Saint Master stage, upon seeing his Student's tragic death on the stage, his eyes instantly became bloodshot.

Even knowing the other party's strength, he still roared with endless fury.

"Qianhai Country! You've gone too far!"

The three chief Referees on the field also appeared before everyone after the incident occurred.

Watching this scene, the audience was completely focused.

Compared to the fights of the young people, the tense atmosphere between these top experts was much more exciting to watch!

"Openly breaking the rules, it seems your Qianhai Country is ready to face the accountability from the Divine Hall and various forces?" The White-Haired Old Man in the center of the three chief Referees spoke, his tone also carrying a strong sense of resolve.

This was the confidence derived from having backing.

"One person's actions are their own responsibility. This matter is my personal behavior and should not be escalated to the Qianhai Country!" The Third Teacher glanced at the puddle of flesh on the ground, then voluntarily withdrew his power.

He also understood.

By openly killing someone on the field, the various forces organizing the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination would not forgive him.

Even the Qianhai Country Royal Family behind him would not tolerate him.

Because the Qianhai Country Royal Family itself was one of the forces organizing the Soul Card Master College Entrance Examination.

By separating himself, the impact would only be on himself.

The Qianhai Country would not be implicated.

As for whether he regretted taking action like this, he did not.

The Third Teacher only felt that this method of avenging the Third Prince was still not satisfying enough!

"Hmph, take him away!" The chief Referee ordered the guards behind him.

A moment later, the Third Prince's Teacher, this Supreme, was also taken away in this manner!

When everyone's attention returned to the two corpses on the field, discussions erupted instantly.

Correspondingly, at the rest area of the Qianhai Country Royal Family First Team.

All the remaining members, upon seeing the death of the Third Prince, their Captain, showed expressions of disbelief.

In their confusion, they were like a flock of sheep without a leader, in utter chaos.

After a considerable period of rest, the battle continued.

"Who's going up next?" The leading Teacher of the Qianhai Country Royal Family looked at the several Students in front of him and asked.

"Going up? Who's in the mood to fight at this point! The Captain is dead, is there still a need for our team to exist? Even if we win, what does it matter!"

One person in the crowd shouted.

The leading Teacher's brows furrowed upon hearing this.

"The Captain's cause of death hasn't been investigated yet, who knows what methods those guys opposite used to kill him? I'm not going up."

The remaining people also shook their heads.

Clearly, the sudden death of the Third Prince had left everyone without the mood to fight.

"Teacher, I'll go." Suddenly, a calm voice came from within the Qianhai Country Royal Family team.

This voice also caused others to turn their heads and look.

"Moyun?" Seeing the person who volunteered to go up, the leading Teacher raised his eyebrows slightly.

As the leading Teacher, he only knew that Moyun had once defeated the weakest official member of the Qianhai Country Royal Family First Team.

However, even so, being able to achieve that level was enough to prove his strength.

Going up against the team opposite would definitely be more than sufficient.

"Alright, Moyun, you'll go up for the next battle." The leading Teacher confirmed the chosen person.

...

"Beep!"

On the field, the Referee's whistle sounded.

Moyun looked at his trembling opponent opposite, who clearly showed cowardice as they stepped onto the field, and then he glanced at the two remaining damp bloodstains on the ground.

"How is it? This God told you, as long as you help this God return to Peak condition, I can fulfill everything you can think of!"

"Now that the Third Prince is dead, you can rest assured and compete for the position of team Captain."

A clear voice echoed in Moyun's ear.

In response, Moyun's expression remained unchanged: "I also want Du Xingchen to die, can you do that?"

"Du Xingchen? What is this person's strength?" The ancient voice said calmly.

Moyun: "Four-Star Soul Card Master."

"You can't handle a Four-Star Soul Card Master?"

"If I fight him one-on-one, I can naturally deal with him, perhaps even in just a few moves!" Moyun said with full confidence, then continued: "But I cannot personally act against him."

"Once I do that, he will definitely be able to let the people I care about know that I attacked him!"

"Oh?" The voice of the remnant soul carried a hint of understanding: "It seems your enemy is quite cunning, using the people you care about as a shield. This is indeed not suitable for you to step forward."

"But this God has just helped you deal with that Third Prince, and the power I had accumulated has been completely depleted. Helping you deal with that guy named Du Xingchen will likely be quite difficult."

"So, you also have no way?" Moyun questioned the remnant soul of the God on his body.

This remnant soul was something he bought from a street vendor in the City last night.

It was originally just an ordinary stone, but later, blood accidentally dripped onto its surface, directly awakening the remnant soul sleeping within it!

"No, this old man still has a way!" The remnant soul's tone was serious.

"Kid, do you know why I was able to be awakened by your blood?" The remnant soul asked Moyun, stirring his curiosity, and then stated: "Because in your blood, there is the aura of another God remnant soul!"

"That aura is very faint, but it truly exists."

"Kid, you have been in contact with someone who carries a God remnant soul for a long time!"

"As long as you can get that person with the remnant soul to sacrifice the God remnant soul on their body and offer it to this God, then this God's strength will greatly increase and can help you reach the Peak directly!"

"What Du Xingchen, this Four-Star Soul Card Master, is even less worth mentioning!"

"Someone I've been in contact with for a long time also has a God remnant soul?!" Upon receiving this information, Moyun's expression froze, his heart filled with surprise.

...

...

On the other side.

On the large arena, the battle between the Eight Gods Team and the Purple Phoenix Team had ended.

The match result was 5:3.

Three members of the Eight Gods Team participated: Qing Youyu, Wen Xiu Cheng, and Yuan Lei.

A total of three people, each of whom defeated their opponent!

Among them, the latter two participants even won two consecutive matches against opponents, securing two points each!

After securing a total of five points and winning the individual matches, the Eight Gods Team chose to forfeit the remaining battles.

It was due to this strategy that the Purple Phoenix Team managed to get 3 points.

However, these 3 points only brought humiliation to the Purple Phoenix Team!

For a strong team like them, with their sights only on the top ten, holding these gifted 3 points felt like a loss of face!

Even more furious and heartbroken were those spectators in the stands who had staked their entire fortunes on the Purple Phoenix Team winning!

And the Eight Gods Team, through this battle, was completely etched into everyone's memory!

No one on the field doubted the strength of the Eight Gods Team any longer.

Looking back at the Eight Gods Team's record.

All of their team members had participated, except for the Goddess who lost when facing the fourth opponent after a one-versus-three.

All other team members had achieved victory without exception!

The most unassuming Du Xingchen, who challenged the entire Qian He Team by himself, had his strength questioned by no one!

At the same time.

The Divine Hall branch in this City.

The manager looked at the large pile of flyers placed before him, his face devoid of the fawning expression he had when facing Du Xingchen.

He reached out and pulled out a flyer from the large stack.

His gaze shifted as he looked at the content and the situation the flyer intended to convey.

His brows slowly furrowed.

After pondering for a while, the branch manager held the flyer in his hand and took out a communication talisman from his body with his other hand: "Elder, I have something to report."
