Chapter 20
C20 – Second Round
Ruan Xiude did not know that he had scared Ruan Yingfa half to death.
At this moment, he was looking at the attribute panel in front of him.
Because he had entered the top ten, and he was ranked first.
This caused quite a stir in the crowd.
At the same time, he had obtained even more energy points.
Ruan Xiude’s face was full of smiles.
“Ruan Xiude, what are you so happy about?”
Ruan Yueya’s gentle voice sounded.
“All of us have entered the top ten, so we can go to the Drifting Cloud Sect together.”
Ruan Xiude replied with a smile.
Ruan Yueya nodded and smiled.
Then, the two of them started to laugh.
However, Ruan Xiude did not realize that deep in Ruan Yueya’s eyes, there was a hint of worry that did not dissipate.
When the higher-ups of the four great powers heard this result, their expressions changed.
The people of the Ruan family were extremely happy and smiled.
As for the other three great powers, their expressions were solemn.
Among the top ten, there were actually four disciples of the Ruan family.
Even the City Lord’s Mansion’s Deng family was not as good as the Ruan family.
What did this mean?
The higher-ups of the three great powers felt heavy in their hearts. They did not dare to guess.
On the high platform.
The messenger of the Drifting Cloud Sect, Bai De, sat in the center of the main seat. The City Lord Deng Chun and the number one expert of the Dirtwich, Ruan Yongsi, sat on his two sides.
The other two ancestors of the other two great powers sat on the side.
“This time, there is a good seedling.”
Bai De swept his gaze across Ruan Xiude and nodded with a smile.
Ruan Yongsi also revealed a smile. He nodded slightly in agreement.

Deng Chun and the other two ancestors of the other two forces were stunned. They had a bad premonition.
Even Bai De had taken a liking to Ruan Xiude.
The three of them also swept their gazes over Ruan Xiude, who was on the stage, and muttered in their hearts.
However, Deng Chun still squeezed out a smile.
He had prepared a trump card, and he still had a lot of hope.
After a while.
The commotion on the stage also calmed down.
Deng Jibing once again came to the arena and continued to speak in a clear voice:
“The competition will continue. Next, the second round will be an elimination match, and the top three will be decided.
The winner will advance, and the loser will be eliminated until the top three are decided.
The list will still be decided by the higher-ups of the four major forces to ensure that it is fair.
Now, let’s begin!
The first match, Qi Liang versus Huo Yuan!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire arena went silent.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on the arena, and they were filled with excitement.
This was a competition between the top ten. The lowest cultivation of the contestants was the Peak of the ninth layer of the Body Refining Stage. This was much more exciting than the previous round of the competition.
Especially the first match, the number one genius of the Qi family, Qi Liang, was going to fight.
Everyone was looking forward to it.
Very quickly, the two of them went up the arena.
Qi Liang was the number one genius of the Qi family. He was originally the number one genius of the four great geniuses of the Dirtwich.
At this moment, he had already broken through to the Enlightenment Stage.
He had only broken through not long ago, and his aura had not consolidated yet.
However, the Enlightenment Stage was far from being comparable to the ninth layer of the Body Refining.
As for Huo Yuan, he was the second genius of the Huo family. He was also a famous genius in the Dirtwich City. His cultivation had reached the peak of the ninth layer of the Body Refining.
After the referee, Deng Jibing, announced the start of the match, the two of them started fighting.
Everyone watched with great interest.
This match was indeed much more exciting and intense than the previous points competition.
However, the competition did not last for long.
Qi Liang’s talent was already higher than Huo Yuan’s.
Huo Yuan was naturally not Qi Liang’s match.
In less than ten moves, Huo Yuan was knocked off the stage.
Qi Liang won and advanced to the top five.
“The next match, Deng Kai versus Qi Ming!”
Deng Jibing’s voice sounded.
Not long after, Deng Kai won.
“The next match, Ruan Xiude versus Ruan Yueya!”
Deng Jibing announced once again.
The crowd’s gaze immediately focused on Ruan Xiude.
Ruan Xiude and Ruan Yueya were publicly recognized as a couple in the Dirtwich City. They had already made an engagement long ago.
No one expected that the two of them would actually fight in the second round.
Many people wanted to see how Ruan Xiude would choose.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at the arena.
“The match begins!”
Deng Jibing said in a clear voice. He looked at the two of them.
“I admit defeat!”
At this moment, Ruan Yueya’s voice sounded.
After that, the two of them held hands and walked down the arena, walking towards the stands.
Everyone sighed.
No one knew what to say.
Deng Jibing revealed a helpless expression and announced the result.
“In this match, Ruan Xiude won and advanced to the top five!”
In just a dozen minutes, the top five had been decided.
They were Ruan Xiude, Ruan Huan, Deng Kai, Huo Qianhe, and Qi Liang.
The Ruan family still had the advantage.
“The next match, Deng Kai versus Ruan Huan!”
Deng Jibing announced.
Everyone on the stage was instantly excited.
These were two of the original four geniuses of the Dirtwich City.
This should be even more exciting than all the previous competitions.
Everyone was filled with anticipation.
Not long after, the two of them went up the stage.
After Deng Jibing announced the start of the battle, the two of them started fighting.
Both of them were at the early period of the Enlightenment Stage, and their cultivation levels were about the same.
The difference in their talent was not that big.
When they fought, it seemed that they were evenly matched.
Everyone on the stage was watching them with rapt attention. They felt that it was very refreshing.
However, in the end, Deng Kai was still the leader of the four great geniuses. Compared to Ruan Huan, his talent was slightly higher.
The sudden rise of Ruan Xiude had given the Lord’s Mansion a lot of pressure.
The Lord’s Mansion had provided much more resources to Deng Kai.
The acupuncture points that Deng Kai had opened were one more than Ruan Huan’s.
As time passed, Deng Kai gradually gained the upper hand.
Twenty minutes later, Deng Kai knocked Ruan Huan off the stage and won.
Deng Kai had officially entered the top three.
Immediately, cheers sounded from the audience.
Immediately, Deng Jibing announced the result with a smile on his face.
Deng Kai’s defeat of Ruan Huan meant that the Deng family had won the match against the Ruan family.
Next, it was Ruan Xiude’s turn.
If Deng Kai could defeat Ruan Xiude, the Deng family would have a chance to return to the peak.
Deng Kai understood this. He took a deep breath and looked at Ruan Xiude provocatively.
On the grandstand, Ruan Xiude sneered. He didn’t want to bother with him.
This kind of competition was very easy for him.
He only used it to earn energy points.
He didn’t care about Deng Kai’s provocation.
After a while, the arena calmed down a little.
Deng Kai stepped down from the arena and Ruan Huan returned to the grandstand dejectedly.
Deng Jibing continued announcing, “Next, Ruan Xiude versus Huo Qianhe!”
After he finished speaking, a louder noise sounded from the arena, but it quickly calmed down.
