Chapter 1249 - 1249 422 Going Alone

1249: Chapter 422: Going Alone 1249: Chapter 422: Going Alone The last battle of the Inner Mansion Arena’s quarterfinals ended unequivocally with Qin Zhizhen emerging victorious.Although the result was foreseeable, the process brought many “surprises,” or rather “shocks.”

Beigong Ke truly lived up to the renowned name of Beigong Jade, and did not disappoint the high expectations of Yong Country.

His tenacity and strength moved everyone.

The Last Exploding Falling Milky Way Sword Qi Formation he executed made it impossible to underestimate him.

And of course, the real center of attention was Qin Zhizhen’s “Five Mansions Shining Together.”

First came Gan Changan, who achieved prominence at the age of nine, and now Qin Zhizhen has emerged, embodying Tianfu, a pride of Great Qin, not yielding an inch to anyone.

One can’t help but wonder, when Huang Buxi, the top prodigy under thirty from the Qin country who looks like an old man, shows his power, how terrifying that might be?

This Yellow River Gathering truly lives up to a grand occasion!

People also ponder and anticipate one issue—

Beigong Ke, with his unmatched fierceness and equaled only by Dou Zhao in lethal prowess, each displaying their unique flair.

Now that Qin Zhizhen, who has also manifested Tianfu, has appeared, who can contend against him?

Thus, the final four in the Inner Mansion Arena have been decided.

According to the order of their victories, they are—

Deng Qi from Mu Country, Yellow Sheri from Jing Country, Jiang Wang from Qi Country, and Qin Zhizhen from Qin Country.

After Yu Xi announced the final results, naturally, someone carried away the defeated for treatment.

The prodigies ranked in the final four of the Inner Mansion Arena each walked off the stage.

The four Arenas merged into one amidst a roaring sound.

The semi-finals will be held on this unified Arena.

Yu Xi stretched out his hand and again spread out the holographic screen that would decide the combat pairings.

Displayed on it were the names of the four strongest cultivators currently in the Inner Mansion Realm.

Indeed, within the cultivation Realm of the Inner Mansion, they are the strongest of their time.

The order of the pairings is, of course, crucial – for example, Dou Zhao and Zhongxuan Zun nearly perished together in the battle of the final four, resulting in no champion in the Outer Building Arena this year.

For instance, if Yan Shaofei had the support of a powerful country behind him, maybe he could have easily taken the title without fear of rumors…

In the battles of the Inner Mansion Arena, thus far, the strongest performances have undoubtedly been from Qin Zhizhen of Qin Country and Jiang Wang from Qi Country.

The former is a peerless prodigy shining with the Five Mansions, while the latter decisively defeated Xiang Bei, who almost seemed invincible.

Deng Qi from Mu Country has numerous complex killing methods, certainly immeasurable; Yellow Sheri from Jing Country crushed his opponents with ease, has not really struggled.

But based on current performances, they indeed do not match the former two.

Strong ones need other strong ones to highlight their prowess.

Fighting against the weak doesn’t showcase their true mettle.

Only a gathering of prodigies from various countries like this can enable so many leading figures to fully demonstrate their strength.

On normal days, these top prodigies from various countries rarely have the chance to exert their full power.

For the audience, observing the expressions of the four prodigies during the waiting period is also an interesting activity.

Qin Zhizhen remains as silent as a rock, seemingly indifferent about who he faces; as a Tianfu cultivator, he naturally has such a qualification.

Deng Qi keeps wearing his bronze mask, making his expression impossible to discern.

However, his body language is very relaxed, showing no signs of nerves.

This probably gives a glimpse into his confidence.

Yellow Sheri looks openly at Jiang Wang, not sure if he particularly values this opponent, whether observing or provoking.

Jiang Wang remains calm and tranquil, even nodding at Yellow Sheri, as if agreeing on some kind of pact.

These final four of the Inner Mansion Arena are really interesting.

Even though Qin Zhizhen has already displayed the stature of Five Mansions shining together, not one of the prodigies wavers in spirit.

Instead, each stands tall and confident.

The extent of terror a Tianfu cultivator can reach has already been demonstrated by Zhongxuan Zun in the Outer Building Arena.

However, each of these prodigies in the Inner Mansion Arena appears perfectly spirited and robust.

Could there be another Dou Zhao emerging?

Or is it merely putting on a brave front…

Everyone held their breath, waiting for the final result on the scroll of light.

When it was finally established, the spectator seats erupted!

Mugu’s Deng Qi, against Jingguo’s Yellow Sheri.

Qing Country’s Qin Zhizhen, against Qi Country’s Jiang Wang!

It was like a replay of the battle of geniuses in the Outer Building, where the two strongest geniuses from the previous rounds met ahead of time!

Whether people were expectant, dissatisfied, or joyfully happy.

The list was set, no more changes could be made.

According to the order displayed on the light screen, the semi-finals of the Yellow River Gathering Inner Mansion Arena would begin with the Jing Mu battle of the geniuses.

Qin Zhizhen turned around and went straight back to the preparation seats.

Jiang Wang, on the other hand, gave Deng Qi a deep look, then stepped back a few steps and stood still, clearly intending to watch the battle from below the stage.

Qin Zhizhen and Jiang Wang, unlike Dou Zhao and Zhongxuan Zun from the Outer Building, the two peerless geniuses of the Outer Building had already displayed incredible strength, seeing each other as the greatest opponents, and thus took every moment to recuperate.

They meditated directly beneath the Arena.

As for Qin Zhizhen now, there was no exhaustion in him.

While Jiang Wang had a fierce fight with Xiang Bei, from the Tongtian Palace controversy to the external battle, he had the upper hand.

With his powerful Divine Soul Strength and robust Path Origin reserves, the loss was easily replenished.

Relatively speaking, he preferred to watch the battle closely.

One was Yellow Sheri, who had long agreed to a decisive battle with him, and the other was Deng Qi, who excited his curiosity and anticipation.

That faint hope should have an answer now…

It seems that in front of Yellow Sheri, who possesses four Divine Skills, anyone would need to give their full effort, without any reservation.

Such a battle, Jiang Wang did not want to miss any details.

Zhao Rucheng, disguised as Deng Qi, of course noticed Jiang Wang’s attention but was unfazed.

Today was the first step in his resolve to return a favor, a huge favor to return, to an overwhelming figure, and he did not want to involve that honest and determined Third Brother Jiang.

So, he purposely kept his distance.

In fact, when Third Brother Jiang asked him if they had met before, how could he not hear the tremor and hope in that question?

How could he not want to loudly proclaim in the manner of Old Tiger Du—

“Of course, I know you!

Even if you were burned to ash, I would recognize you!”

But he couldn’t.

Everyone has their own path in life, and often, one can only walk it alone.

Stepping onto the Arena, he stands firm.

Zhao Rucheng quietly observes his opponent.

At this point, the only thought in his mind is to win.

Facing the genius representing the Overlord Country at the Guanhe Platform, if there are thoughts beyond winning—whether hiding your trace or anything else…

there would be no possibility of victory.

The two individuals standing on the Arena felt entirely different emotions.

Compared to Zhao Rucheng’s heaviness, Yellow Sheri was noticeably more relaxed.

She stepped onto the Arena, first glancing at Chu’s top beauty Ye Laner.

Good, she’s paying attention to me.

Then, she looked at Zhongxuan Zun in the Qi Country preparation seats.

Good, he’s watching me.

She also casually observed Jiang Wang standing beneath the Arena.

Good, he’s also watching me.

Next would be Xie Ai from Snow Country.

Xie Ai…

Yellow Sheri suddenly turned back, staring fiercely at Zhao Rucheng—

Kid, you’re done for!
