Chapter 422: Walking Alone

ong as his body recovered somewhat, even if his soul hadn't fully recovered, he could still continue hunting sea creatures and complete his atonement mission.The Five-Colored Fish had spat out all its...The last battle of the eight rounds in the Neifu Chang Si competition concluded with Qin Zhizhen's victory as expected.

Although the result was a foregone conclusion, the process brought many "surprises," or perhaps "alarms."

Beigu Ke truly lived up to Beigu Yu's reputation and did not disappoint the hopes of all people in Yong Guo.

His tenacity and strength are truly moving.

The final strike of the Heavenly River Sword Qi Array was even more formidable than before, leaving no room for underestimation.

But what truly captured the attention of the crowd was Qin Zhizhen's "Five Bureaus Shine Together".

First came a nine-year-old prodigy, Gan Chang'an, and now there is Qin Zichen, gifted with the treasures of heaven. The pride of the Qin Dynasty, he is in no way inferior to others.

This makes one wonder, what would a Qin man under thirty years of age, who looks like an old man, be like when he displays his strength

This meeting of the Yellow River truly lives up to its reputation as a gathering of heroes and legends!

People are more thinking, or rather expecting, a question —

The peerless Tianfu cultivator, Chongxuan, was as formidable as the unrivaled Dou Zhao, each displaying their own unique charm.

Likewise, Qin Zhizhen, who embodies the excellence of the Tianfu region, stands unmatched.

Therefore, the top four teams for the Neifu Championship have been decided.

According to the order of deciding the outcome, they are —

Mùguó Dèngqí, Jīngguó Huáng Shélì, Qíguó Jiāng Wàng, Qín guó Qín Zhìzhēn.

After Yu Xi announced the final result, naturally some people went to carry the defeated down for treatment. The four celestial prodigies who made it to the inner courtyard arena also each walked off the stage.

Four martial arts platforms roared as they converged into one.

The next semifinals will be held on this martial arts stage.

Yu Xi extended his hand and spread it out again, opening the light curtain displaying the roster for the upcoming battle.

Bearing the brightest lights were four names of peerless young talents who had reached the pinnacle of the Inner Palace Realm.

Yes, within the imperial court and this realm of cultivation, they are already the strongest in the world.

The order of matchups certainly matters, such as Dou Shao and Chong Xuan Zun in the semi-finals almost ended up in a draw, resulting in no champion for this year's outer court.

For example, if Yan Shaofei had the support of a powerful nation behind him, he might not be afraid of rumors and could easily win the top spot...

In the battles of the Imperial Court, the strongest performers so far have undoubtedly been Qin's Qin Zichen and Qi's Jiang Wang.

The former was a peerless genius who shone brightly among the Five Great Factions, while the latter overwhelmingly defeated several invincible figures like Xiang Bei.

The martial arts of the Mu Kingdom's Deng Qi are numerous and profound, naturally unfathomable. The Huang Sheli of the Jing Kingdom effortlessly crushed their opponents with ease. But based on their current performance, they are indeed inferior to the top two.

A strong person needs a strong one to stand out. Fighting the weak doesn't show their true colors at all.

That is to say, this gathering of the nation's prodigies allows these many prodigies to fully display their abilities. On ordinary days, these first-ranked prodigies from various countries rarely have the opportunity to fully demonstrate their power.

As an audience member, observing the expressions of the four prodigies waiting is also a very interesting thing.

Qin Zhizhen remained as silent as a rock, seeming indifferent to everyone he encountered. As a cultivator from the Heavenly Mansion, he certainly had such qualifications.

Deng Qi wore a bronze mask, his expression unseen. However, his body was relaxed and showed no hint of nervousness. This gave some insight into the confidence he held within.

Huang Sheli looked at Jiang Wang openly and generously. Perhaps he especially valued this opponent, perhaps observing him or even provoking him.

Meanwhile, Jiang Wang remained calm and composed. He nodded to Huang Sheli as if they had reached some agreement.

The top four in this inner court competition are really interesting.

Even though Qin Zhizhen had already displayed the splendor of five mansions shining together, at least in terms of aura, none of the peerless geniuses seemed to be putting on a show.

On the contrary, each and every one of them was full of confidence.

How terrifying the Tianfu cultivators could be, was already demonstrated by Chongxuan in the outer court.

These prodigies of the Nei Fu field were all in perfect shape, brimming with energy.

Could there possibly be another Dou Zhao

I don't know if it's putting on a brave face...

All eyes were glued to the screen, waiting with bated breath for the final outcome.

When it was established, the stands erupted!

Mu Guo Deng Qi against Jing Guo Huang She Li.

Qi Guo Jiang Wang, against Qin Guo Qin Zhi Zhen!

As if a battle of prodigies from the outer regions were being reenacted, the two most impressive prodigies from the previous rounds met again ahead of schedule!

Whether people are expectant, discontent, or joyful.

The list is finalized, and no one can make any changes anymore.

According to the order displayed on the light curtain, the semi-finals of the Huang He Zhi Hui Nei Fu Chang will begin with the battle between Jing Mu Tianjiao.

Qin Zhizhen turned around directly and returned to the battle station.

Jiang Wang then cast a deep look at Deng Qi, and after taking a few steps back, he stood still. He didn't return to the Qí State battle preparations area, clearly indicating that he was going to watch the fight from below the stage.

In contrast to Qin Zhizhen and Jiang Wang's approach this time, Dou Zhao and Chong Xuanzun from the Outer Court chose a different strategy. Back then, those two peerless geniuses had already showcased their extraordinary abilities and viewed each other as their greatest rivals. Therefore, they were focused on every moment of recovery. They simply sat directly under the martial arts stage to recover their stamina.

Now Qin Zhizhen has no consumption at all.

While Jiang Wang fought fiercely with Xiang Bei, he always held the upper hand from the battle at Tongtian Palace to the war beyond. With his powerful divine soul and vast reserves of Tao Yuan, it was easy for him to replenish his losses.

He'd rather watch from close up.

One was Huang Sheli, who had agreed to fight him long ago. The other was Deng Qi, who piqued his curiosity and aroused a sense of anticipation in him.

That faint hope should have an answer...

Coming before Huang Sheli, who possesses the four divine powers, anyone would need to give it their all and couldn't hold back.

Such a battle, Jiang Wang didn't want to miss any details.

Zhao Ruocheng, using the alias Deng Qi, naturally noticed Jiang Wang's attention, but he remained unmoved.

This is a continuation of the previous text.

Today was the first step in his decision to return the favor. The favor he wanted to return was too great, and the person he wanted to return it to was too formidable. He absolutely didn't want to involve the honest and steadfast Jiang Third Brother.

Therefore, he distanced himself even more.

In fact, the moment Jiang Sange asked him if they had ever met, how could he not hear the trembling and longing in his voice How could he not want to learn from Du Huzi's tone and say loudly—

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

“Of course I know him! Even if he was burned to ashes, I'd recognize him!”

But he can't.

Every person in the world has their own path, and many times it can only be walked alone.

Stepping onto the martial arts stage, standing still.

Zhao Ruocheng looked calmly at his opponent.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

By this point, the only thought in his mind was to win.

Facing a genius from the dominant nation on the Guanhe Platform, if one still harbors thoughts beyond winning, whether it's concealing their intentions or anything else... there is absolutely no possibility of victory.

The two people standing on the martial arts stage had completely different moods.

Compared to Zhao Ruocheng's heaviness, Huang Sheli was obviously much lighter.

She stepped onto the martial arts stage, first glancing at Ye Lan'er, the first beauty of Chu.

> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

>Good, follow me.

He then looked at Chong Xuan, who was present at the Qin state's wartime preparations.

Great, keep up with me.

Then I casually glanced at Jiang Wang who was standing under the martial arts platform.

That's great, and I am also following you.

Here is your text translated to English:

Let me know if you have any other translations you need!

Then, the farewell of Xie Ai from this snowy country took place.

...condolences.

Huang Sheli suddenly turned his head and glared fixedly at Zhao Ru Cheng —
