102: The atmosphere was tense.

"Hmph, if you can't beat me and still won't surrender, isn't that just asking for death? Your Disciples are truly too weak. Although they are in the same Realm as me, they are completely no match for me."

Su Lei howled toward the sky and spoke loudly, as if what he had just done was incredibly righteous and superior.

When the Heavenly Profound Sect Disciples heard these words, they were instantly enraged. Just now, when Heavenly Profound Sect members encountered Hundred Ghosts Sect members, they generally showed mercy and let the opponent leave, but he had directly killed their Sect Disciples.

Since the Hundred Ghosts Sect Disciples started this conflict, the Heavenly Profound Sect Disciples would absolutely not back down.

Soon, life-and-death fighting began on the field; it was no longer just simple basic sparring.

When facing Disciples of the same Realm, they generally erupted with their strongest abilities in a desperate bid to resolve the fight in the shortest time possible. Since both sides were doing this, the battles proceeded very quickly.

Soon, it was Zhang Hai's turn to take the Arena. At this moment, Zhang Hai straightened his collar, a benevolent smile appearing on his face.

However, he looked slightly greasy, like a scholar from the period after the founding of the nation.

Zhang Hai walked onto the stage step by step with a reserved smile, and immediately, Beast Rearing Peak Disciples began cheering him on.

Even though he had previously humiliated Beast Rearing Peak, they were fellow Sect members after all. If their own family was bullied by outsiders, even if there were internal conflicts, they would surely unite against the external threat.

As soon as Zhang Hai entered the Arena, he was hailed by the Beast Rearing Peak Disciples.

This caused the other Heavenly Profound Sect Disciples to look bewildered and start discussing among themselves.

"Does Beast Rearing Peak have such a Powerhouse? I remember their number one Outer Sect person was Luo Hong, right? Who is this guy?"

"I don't know. Could he be a hidden trump card secretly trained by Beast Rearing Peak? Seeing how excited they are, his strength shouldn't be too poor."

"He only barely reached the Soul Transformation Realm at this age. He can't be called exceptionally outstanding; he's just an ordinary Prodigy. What are they so excited about?"

"It's over! I feel like we're going to be utterly disgraced this time. This guy isn't a Beast Rearing Peak Disciple. I remember some incident happened before—he's the owner of the dog that stole underwear! He's a Spirit Gathering Peak Disciple!"

As one Disciple recognized his identity, the others immediately looked troubled and sighed mournfully. Their Chief Disciple was merely in the Foundation Establishment Stage, so what kind of Powerhouse could he teach?

Zhang Hai paid no mind to the others' comments. Instead, he smiled as he looked at the Peak Soul Transformation Powerhouse in front of him. This person held a Nine-Ring Great Saber, looking incredibly arrogant. His muscles were powerful and taut, and to show off his robust physique, he had specifically taken off his shirt.

"If you step down now, you still have a way out. Otherwise, once I make my move, you'll only face death!"

Just now, this Disciple had fiercely attacked, forcefully attempting to kill another Disciple. That Disciple had already lost the ability to fight, and the Referee decisively intervened, allowing that Disciple to survive.

The home ground here belonged to Heavenly Profound Sect. If it were the Hundred Ghosts Sect's home ground, the casualties among Disciples would only be more severe.

"I hope you feel the same way later."

Zhang Hai turned around, smiling, and gently waved his hand. Wangcai immediately jumped onto the Arena.

"Do your Sect Disciples really need a dog to help them fight?"

This Disciple laughed heartily. The Hundred Ghosts Sect Disciples who heard this also smiled, their faces filled with mockery.

"Bite him to death."

Zhang Hai smiled and used the gentlest tone to utter the most cruel words. Wangcai nodded, showing a fawning smile, wagging its tail, and sticking out its tongue, looking completely harmless.

As the Referee gave the command, the smiles on the faces of all the Hundred Ghosts Sect Disciples immediately froze, because they clearly saw Wangcai transform into a black lightning bolt and instantly bite through the Disciple's abdomen.

Subsequently, that Disciple slowly fell to the ground, his face full of unwillingness. Wangcai decisively marked a spot.

Then, taking short strides with its four little legs, it happily ran back to Zhang Hai's side.

"A fix! This is a fix!"

"Heh heh, a major Sect like Heavenly Profound Sect actually resorts to match fixing, bringing in a Nirvana Realm Spirit Beast to help! How shameless!"

"Exactly! Who would believe that a Soul Transformation Disciple's Spirit Beast is in the Nirvana Realm? Separated by an entire major Realm, how did you subdue that Spirit Beast? It must be cheating!"

"That's right! This dog was brought here to perform for us, pretending they have a master-servant relationship, but it's actually just to kill our Disciples. This is outrageous!"

Zhang Hai just smiled.

"Wangcai is inherently my natal spirit beast. If any of you are unconvinced, you can also use your natal spirit beasts. I'm not stopping you."

Zhang Hai then showed a helpless expression, shaking his head, seemingly mocking the Hundred Ghosts Sect Disciples for being unable to do anything, before turning around and walking off the Arena.

Wangcai also raised its paw at them and wiggled it.

"If you're weak, practice more. If you can't afford to lose, don't come!"

Wangcai then proudly raised its dog head and excitedly returned to the Waiting Area.

"Hahahaha! That was magnificent!"

Wangcai and Zhang Hai secretly laughed, then high-fived each other in private.

Li Haotian watched the scene unfolding below from the High Platform, feeling refreshed. If they could send all the Soul Transformation Disciples onto the Arena at once for a group fight, Wangcai could kill them all.

The Hundred Ghosts Sect Elder's expression was unsightly at this time, but he couldn't flare up. He still remembered the mission he came here for.

Li Haotian frowned again. This guy could still hold back. It seemed he needed to add more fuel to the fire.

Everyone else was a little far from Li Haotian's position at this time. The Chief Disciple closest to him even subtly moved sideways.

An existence more powerful than a Heavenly Human Realm Powerhouse, already close to a Saint—he didn't know how to interact with such a person. This was entirely the influence of the Upper Nine Peaks Chief.

Li Haotian paid no attention to these formalities, instead watching the battlefield below thoughtfully.

The Cultivation Techniques practiced by Hundred Ghosts Sect Disciples are all related to ghosts. Whether it's manipulating Ghost Entities or summoning Ghost Entities, they are excellent Cultivation Techniques that can effectively preserve one's own strength and allow the summoned entities to fight.

This is equivalent to two Realms fighting one Realm. Therefore, unless a Heavenly Profound Sect Disciple is exceptionally powerful, they will generally find it difficult to be a match for a Hundred Ghosts Sect Disciple.

A four-six split between the two sides was already considered good.

Several more people died during this period, belonging both to Heavenly Profound Sect and Hundred Ghosts Sect. At this point, the two sides were far from sparring; they were engaged in life-and-death combat. Even if the Elders didn't give instructions, the Disciples knew what to do.

Heavenly Profound Sect was like their second home. If their own family members were killed or threatened, how could they not contribute their strength?
