Chapter 1302: Chapter 1302: The Final Round
Soul attack-type ’Innate Divine Abilities’ are powerful and unpredictable; once unleashed, almost anyone whose cultivation level isn’t higher or whose spiritual power isn’t stronger than oneself would struggle to escape death.
Most importantly, soul attacks cannot be blocked by Origin Force or ’mysteries’ because they are simply not the sa type of power.
Soul attacks are more intangible.
Whereas Origin Force and mysteries are tangible forces.
Both competitors were at the First Level of Martial Emperor Realm and initially evenly matched.
But the mont the youth in black used his ’Innate Divine Ability’, he ended his opponent’s life in the blink of an eye.
"What a terrifying Innate Divine Ability!"
"That’s a soul attack-type Innate Divine Ability, unpredictable and undefendable! Unless one’s spiritual power level is higher than his, anyone would hardly escape death upon encountering him."
"Even if soone’s spiritual power level is higher than his, if it’s not by much, he can still severely damage the opponent’s soul with his Innate Divine Ability... and defeat the opponent while they’re disoriented."
...
As the onlookers recovered from their shock, they began to discuss animatedly, their gazes towards the youth in black filled with wariness.
And just as they had said.
Later, during the journey to enter the ’top ten’ of the Mist Hidden Tournant, the youth in black encountered an existence at the Second Layer of Martial Emperor Realm. Though his ’Innate Divine Ability’ didn’t kill the opponent, it still affected them.
While the opponent was affected, the youth in black struck, inflicting heavy injuries and defeating them.
"Truly an ’Odd Species’."
Wyatt Barnes mused.
"I wonder where the Black Tortoise Demon Emperor found such a disciple... From the start of the Mist Hidden Tournant until now, there have been three other ’Odd Species,’ yet their Innate Divine Abilities are far from comparing to his."
Colin Yorke couldn’t help but sigh.
"Isaac Campbell."
It wasn’t long before Wyatt saw Isaac Campbell take the stage.
However, Isaac Campbell’s opponent was an existence at the Second Layer of Martial Emperor Realm, easily defeating him.
"Isaac Campbell, why didn’t you use your ’quasi-Emperor Grade spiritual weapon’?"
After losing the chance to advance into the top ten, Isaac Campbell returned to Martial Emperor Thundercloud’s side, provoking the latter’s dissatisfaction.
In his view, Isaac Campbell’s not using the quasi-Emperor Grade spiritual weapon was equivalent to not giving his all.
"Master, even if I had used the quasi-Emperor Grade spiritual weapon, I wouldn’t have been his opponent."
Isaac Campbell said with a wry smile.
Of course, he was just making excuses.
The reason he didn’t use the stele in his possession that was comparable to a ’quasi-Emperor Grade spiritual weapon’ was also out of fear that it would be exposed to Wyatt Barnes.
He didn’t want to be targeted by Wyatt.
At least, until he knew the ’secret’ of the mysterious stele, he didn’t want Wyatt to know that the stele was in his possession.
Not to ntion Wyatt’s strength was greater than his, taking the stele from him would be easy.
Even with Martial Emperor Thundercloud’s protection, if the other party beca angry from sha and revealed the ’secret’ of the stele to Martial Emperor Thundercloud, and leaked the news that he possessed the stele, it would definitely be taken by Martial Emperor Thundercloud.
That wasn’t sothing he wished to see.
He did not want the stele, which he had sought with all his efforts, to end up as a ’wedding dress’ for Martial Emperor Thundercloud.
He alone knew the great price he had paid for the stele.
As ti passed, including Wyatt Barnes, those who ranked amongst the ’top ten’ in the Mist Hidden Tournant were determined.
At Mystic Profound Peak, Dominic Campbell as Colin Yorke’s chief disciple, did not make it into the top ten, hence missing the chance for a Holy Stone.
As for this, even though Martial Emperor Mystic Profound was sowhat disappointed, he didn’t bla Dominic Campbell, simply because today’s Mist Hidden Tournant participants who stepped into the ’Martial Emperor Realm’ were too many.
Thus, from Mystic Profound Peak, only Wyatt Barnes entered the top ten.
Among the group from Departfall Mountain, only one of Martial Emperor Departfall’s disciples made it into the top ten, naly ’Huggo Reid.’
From Valley of Chill, only Hannah Adams made it into the top ten.
From Thundercloud Peak, only Flora Blue made it into the top ten.
Under the Black Tortoise Demon Emperor, including the youth in black who knew the soul attack-type ’Innate Divine Ability,’ a total of two people entered the top ten.
From the Cloud Skies Continent, a total of six human martial artists broke into the ’top ten’ seats of the Mist Hidden Tournant.
Of course, another human martial artist also made it into the ’top ten’ of the Mist Hidden Tournant, who was the pale-faced and bloody-handed female disciple of Mist Hidden Island’s Third Island Master.
The remaining three seats were occupied by one demon powerhouse from Mist Hidden Island and two demon powerhouses from the Cloud Skies Continent.
Among the two demon powerhouses from the Cloud Skies Continent, one of them was a direct disciple of the Savage Demon Emperor.
"Ladies and gentlen, as we reach this point, the ’Mist Hidden Tournant’ is nearing its end... The third and final round of the tournant will determine the specific ranking of the top ten."
Following the calm words of the Third Island Master of Mist Hidden Island, the atmosphere around was ignited by him, with many people’s eyes wide open, eagerly anticipating the start of the third and final round of the tournant.
The third round of the tournant would be a brutal elimination match.
Soon, every participant who made it into the top ten of the Mist Hidden Tournant received nine specially made tokens from the hands of Mist Hidden Island’s Third Island Master.
The rules for the final round of the tournant were simple:
Any person could challenge any of the other nine, and upon defeating them, would obtain a token from their possession, and so on.
Only by defeating nine opponents, obtaining nine tokens, and amassing eighteen tokens, can one be listed as ’the first’ in the Mist Hidden Tournant.
"Moreover, those who have just fought a match, the other eight people, cannot challenge them in the next match... The rules of the third round of the tournant are generally as such."
The Third Island Master of Mist Hidden Island continued to speak.
"There’s one more thing I forgot to ntion... During the third round of the tournant, no one is allowed to kill each other, just stop when a point is made. With your strength, it shouldn’t be difficult to do this."
"Anyone who kills another will not only lose the qualification to continue participating in the ’Mist Hidden Tournant’, but their cultivation will also be crippled... I hope you all will not bring this upon yourselves."
Towards the end, the Third Island Master of Mist Hidden Island’s words carried a hint of threat.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the third and final round of the Mist Hidden Tournant officially began.
Including Wyatt Barnes, ten participants stood in their positions, their gazes icy.
After a while, no one made the first move.
Gradually, many spectators beca impatient, "Why hasn’t it started yet?"
"Isn’t there a rest after one fight? Why is everyone so inactive?"
"Hurry up! If we delay any longer, it will soon be dark."
...
More and more people urged the ten participants, including Wyatt Barnes.
Although Wyatt heard these prompts, he did not pay attention to them, treating them as ’wind by the ear’.
Still, soone could not hold back and entered the arena.
Whoosh!
A stout figure swiftly leaped into the arena.
Huggo Reid, the personal disciple of Martial Emperor Departfall from Departfall Mountain, had exchanged blows with Wyatt and was defeated by him.
Thus, after entering the arena, he didn’t even glance at Wyatt.
In the end, his gaze locked onto Hannah Adams, the personal disciple of the Martial Emperor from Valley of Chill, and also the only one among them who had stepped into the ’First level of Martial Emperor Realm’.
As the only one among the ten contenders from the ’First level of Martial Emperor Realm’, the strength of Huggo Reid was validated.
"This Hannah Adams... her mastery of the Cold Ice Divine Sword Formula is comndable. Once Huggo faces her, he likely won’t last thirty breaths."
Hannah’s previous moves were seen by Wyatt, who naturally could gauge the depth of her strength.
As for Huggo, having fought him, Wyatt was even clearer about his strength.
As one who had rged the mories of the Martial Emperor from two lifetis, Wyatt’s judgnt far surpassed that of ordinary people.
Just as he thought.
After trading blows for over twenty breaths, Hannah defeated Huggo, obtaining one of his tokens and becoming the first person to hold ten tokens.
Huggo, who lost a token and was left with only eight, wore a sour face.
"Looking at the situation now... I’m really likely to end up at the bottom this ti."
Huggo wryly smiled inwardly; he felt helpless but knew he had to accept this reality.
After Hannah defeated Huggo, the second duel continued.
Because Huggo was the first to initiate a challenge, the second participant swiftly entered the arena, naly one of the two disciples under the Martial Emperor Shiloh who made it into the ’top ten’.
The black-clothed young man with the soul-attacking Divine Ability.
"You."
The mont the black-clothed young man stepped into the arena, he chose Flora Blue from Thundercloud Peak.
Flora’s expression turned sour being chosen by him, knowing she had no chance of victory.
Fortunately, the third round of the Mist Hidden Tournant strictly prohibited killing, otherwise, she wouldn’t have had the courage to face the black-clothed young man in battle, as all his previous opponents had died before this.
Weaker ones were slain by his Origin Force and profound mysteries.
The stronger ones were killed with his soul-attacking Divine Ability.
Right after Flora entered the arena, before she could react, she was influenced by the Divine Ability used by the black-clothed young man. Stunned for a mont, she was blasted out and heavily injured.
The black-clothed young man secured one of Flora’s tokens.
The Mist Hidden Tournant continued.
Next to enter the arena was the personal disciple of the Third Island Master of Mist Hidden Island, a young lady known for her ruthless and bloody thods from the beginning.
Before this round, none of her opponents had survived.
However, this round of the tournant strictly forbade killing.
Unless she wanted her cultivation to be crippled, she would not kill again.
"Hmm?"
Wyatt’s brows lifted, noticing that the young woman’s gaze had fallen on him, "She wants to challenge
first?"
For a mont, Wyatt beca vigilant.
However, the young woman’s gaze soon shifted away and landed on another personal disciple of Martial Emperor Shiloh, locking in on him, and even challenging him.
Despite both being at the ’Second Layer of the Martial Emperor Realm’ level, their battle quickly determined a victor.
The young woman attacked every ti as if she was fighting for her life, forcing the disciple of Martial Emperor Shiloh to constantly retreat, until he was eventually defeated and seriously injured.
