My Brother's the Protagonist? Good Thing I Awakened My System! Chapter 200 Dragon and Phoenix Competition - Fourth Round En

Feng Chen stopped staring at Xue Hongxia after she noticed him.

He was surprised that she had realized he was observing her, though he wasn't exactly trying to hide it.

In any case, Xue Hongxia wasn't the Spirit Severing Realm cultivator he was searching for.

( Then who? )

Feng Chen tried to think of another potential Spirit Severing Realm cultivator, but no answer ca to mind.

Xue Hongxia was widely regarded as the strongest cultivator in the Azure Sky Empire. If she wasn't the one, then whoever was in the Spirit Severing Realm must be hiding extrely well.

Still, Feng Chen wasn't too concerned about not encountering this mysterious figure.

With such a high level of cultivation, if the person harbored any ambition, they would eventually reveal themselves.

Soon, Feng Chen felt a gaze filled with killing intent directed at him.

He followed it to its source, his eyes landing on the Gong Clan.

One of the Gong Clan elders had been among the people Feng Chen killed the previous night. It seed the Gong Clan had pieced together what had happened.

Since their elders hadn't returned, the conclusion was simple—they had been killed by the Feng Clan.

Feng Chen found it amusing that the Gong Clan was angry at him rather than reflecting on their own actions.

( What did they expect? That they could easily steal soone else's treasure without consequences? )

Feng Chen shook his head at how naïve people could be.

The Gong Clan had underestimated him, believing they could deal with him effortlessly.

Never did they consider what would happen if they failed, which was obviously death.

While Feng Chen and Xue Hongxia were lost in their thoughts, the first match of the Fourth Round began.

By this round, most Core Formation Stage participants had been eliminated, leaving only six.

These six were considered lucky, as they had faced only Core Formation Stage opponents in the previous rounds.

It wasn't too weird for Core Formation Stage to be in the Top 30 Dragon and Phoenix List, however, this year's competition was too difficult.

That is because the number of Grand Qi Condensation participants this year is almost 3 tis more than in the previous competition.

Most of the ti, there might be 10-15 Grand Qi Condensation realm participants but this year, there were more than 40 participants who were in the Grand Qi Condensation Realm.

To get through them and beco in the Top 30 isn't easy for those Core Formation Stage participants.

The first match featured Feng Jianhong, whose opponent was at the Initial Grand Qi Condensation Realm.

The fight wasn't easy for Feng Jianhong, but his superior cultivation and techniques secured him the win.

Subsequent matches also began, each lasting longer than those in the earlier rounds, as the remaining participants were closely matched in strength.

When the artifact revealed the participants for the sixth match, Feng Yun's na appeared.

His opponent was soone in the Core Formation Stage.

With only six Core Formation Stage participants remaining, those who faced them were considered extrely lucky—advancing to the fifth round was almost guaranteed.

This ti, Feng Yun seed to be one of the lucky ones, as he got his first Core Formation Stage opponent of the competition.

It was ironic. When Core Formation Stage opponents were abundant, Feng Yun faced Grand Qi Condensation Realm opponents. Now that they were rare, he finally encountered one.

It was as if Feng Yun's luck ensured he always encountered the least likely scenarios.

As expected, the fight ended almost as soon as it began.

Gao Mingrui and Yuan Ziyan also finished their matches with brilliant performances. Compared to their previous opponents, these battles were far easier.

Finally, it was ti for Ling iyu and her opponent was Feng Ruolan.

Feng Ruolan harbored no goodwill toward Ling iyu after what had happened.

But she was well aware that Ling iyu was one of the strongest competitors in the tournant.

Before the fight, there were no greetings or taunts—both were focused entirely on the battle ahead.

Feng Ruolan went all out, sparing no effort in her attempt to defeat Ling iyu.

She used the Heavenly Emperor's Sword which she excelled at and its power was sothing that couldn't be easy for even Ling iyu to defend.

Ling iyu, however, remained calm and composed, though she couldn't help but feel curious.

WHOOSH!

She dodged Feng Ruolan's attack while carefully observing her technique.

Although she didn't think she would lose, that didn't an she wouldn't take advantage of the opportunity to gain insight into Feng Yun's abilities.

Since Feng Yun would likely use the sa technique, she wanted to analyze its weaknesses and decide on her tactics for facing him—or perhaps another participant from the Feng Clan.

CLANK! CLANK!

She acknowledged that the Feng Clan was far more formidable than she had initially believed.

With just Initial Grand Qi Condensation Realm cultivation, Feng Ruolan was able to push back Ling iyu.

Their techniques were powerful, rivaling even those of her sect and clan.

She began to wonder if her father had known this all along, which might explain the engagent with Feng Yun.

Even so, Ling iyu still believed she had made the right decision. She didn't want to be constrained by an engagent.

Feng Ruolan put up a good fight, lasting nearly five minutes. Much of that, however, was because Ling iyu refrained from using her full strength.

Still, it was the longest match Ling iyu had fought so far and the first ti she had used any techniques in the competition.

The spectators finally saw why Ling iyu was hailed as the number one genius.

Her sword skill was much better than even so of the elders of Mystic Fla Sect and combined with the Mystic Fla Sect's technique, it was quite destructive.

However, their admiration for the Feng Ruolan effort wasn't lost either.

So even suspect that with Feng Ruolan's strength, she might not even lose to a Mid-Level Grand Qi Condensation Realm or even the Top-Level Grand Qi Condensation Realm cultivator.

Sadly, her opponent was the strongest in the Competition.

Amidst the excitent from the match, another exciting match was announced.

It was Feng i's turn, and her opponent turned out to be the genius of the Gong Clan—the only participant from the Gong Clan who had made it this far.

Feng i stepped into the arena, her deanor calm and composed. Her opponent, the so-called genius of the Gong Clan, stood opposite her, his face twisted with hatred and anger.

He was glaring at her with Killing intent even before the match began.

"You Feng Clan brats think you can do as you please," he sneered, his voice loud enough for the audience to hear.

"Today, I will avenge my uncle and show everyone that the Gong Clan is not to be trifled with!"

Feng i raised an eyebrow, her expression unchanging. She tilted her head slightly, a flicker of confusion crossing her face.

( Uncle? Revenge? What is he talking about? )

The Gong Clan genius continued his tirade, pointing an accusatory finger at her.

"You think you can kill the elders of my clan and walk away unscathed? I'll make you pay for their deaths!"

Gong Xuanye yelled angrily.

"What? Do the Gong Clan and the Feng Clan have a conflict with each other?"

"That shouldn't be true. The Feng Clan is in the Eastern Region while the Gong Clan is in the Western region!"

"Is what Gong Xuanye said true?"

"This is going to be interesting!"

…

The crowd murmured, intrigued by the unexpected tension between the two.

In any case, Feng i had no idea what he was talking about and just waited for the referee to start the match.

"Begin!"

The referee signaled the start of the match, and Gong Xuanye wasted no ti, launching himself at Feng i with a flurry of attacks.

SLASH! SLASH!

Feng i remained rooted in place, her eyes cold and calculating as she effortlessly dodged his strikes.

Her movents were fluid, almost lazy as if she wasn't taking the fight seriously.

"Take this!"

Gong Xuanye displayed his Mid-Level Grand Qi Condensation Realm cultivation and tried to overpower Feng i with his strength.

However, Feng i's cultivation was clearly superior—she displayed the power of the Top-Level Grand Qi Condensation Realm.

For most of the fight, Feng i used techniques she had learned from the Icy Veil Sect.

Feng Chen, watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but admit that the Icy Veil Sect—or rather, the Ice Beauty herself—had taught Feng i well, even imparting a Heaven-Grade Technique.

However, when comparing the techniques of the Icy Veil Sect and the Feng Clan, Feng Chen was certain that the Feng Clan's techniques were far more powerful.

In any case, Icy Veil Sect's techniques were stronger than anything Gong Xuanye could muster.

Feng i outclassed Gong Xuanye in every aspect—cultivation, technique, and combat ability.

In the end, Feng i trapped Gong Xuanye in ice, sealing her victory.

"Winner! Feng i of the Icy Veil Sect!"
