Hearing this, the referee’s eyes moved, and his expression instantly became serious.
What did this mean? This would clearly be breaking the rules of the Grand Sect Competition, right?
Moreover, in front of the tens of thousands of spectators in the arena. Was this old man asking him to break the rules?!
“The Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion has won. The Ancient Sect has been disqualified for breaking the rules of the Grand Sect Competition.”
The referee announced the results of the competition in a deep voice once again. This time, he even used his spiritual power to amplify his voice so that everyone present could hear him clearly.
He was not stupid. It was undoubtedly unwise of him to side with the Ancient Sect at this time.
Seeing that the referee was indifferent to his words, Xie Long’s expression also became a little ugly. However, he also tactfully did not continue to persist. Instead, he fiercely glared at Gu Xi who was not far away. He said in a deep voice, “Very good. I will remember this matter.”
“Brat, just you wait. This matter will definitely not end here!”
Xie Long once again forced his voice into a line and transmitted it into Gu Xi’s ears.
It was needless to say how important the Grand Sect Competition was. Now, the Ancient Sect was actually defeated by the Thousand Treasure Pavilion in such a crushing manner. Moreover, because of his recklessness, the Ancient Sect had been disqualified from participating in the Grand Sect Competition. If he were to go back easily this time, he would definitely be punished severely!
Xie Long forcefully suppressed the killing intent in his heart. He carried Qi Feng who was on the verge of death in his arms and turned around to leave the stage. Then, he left with the group of people from the Ancient Sect dejectedly.
If he did not treat Qi Feng’s injuries in time and delay for another moment, he was afraid that this fellow’s life would be lost.
“Of course it won’t end here. Our story has already begun,” Gu Xi muttered as he watched the group of people leave.
However, his words were drowned out by the sound waves from the stands. No one noticed what he said.
A Chamber of Commerce had defeated the first-rate Ancient Sect. Such a shocking event was rare even in the previous tournaments.
At this moment, the entire arena was filled with cheers. Everyone was shocked by the absolute strength that Gu Xi had displayed. Some people were happy while others were sad. The audience enjoyed watching, but the sects that participated in the competition were not like this.
The vast majority of the sects silently prayed in their hearts. They hoped that their opponent in the next round would not be the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, specifically, not Gu Xi. They even wished that their opponent was a genuine first-rate force, they did not want to draw Gu Xi and the others.
The current Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion had become even more terrifying than a first-rate force.
After all, one person had almost wiped out a first-rate force. Such a battle record could be said to be unprecedented.
After being immersed in the cheers of the crowd on the stage for a while, Gu Xi turned around and left, bringing the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion’s group back to the room.
Along the way, the few disciples who had looked down on Gu Xi chose to remain silent. Even Hou Yu, who had always been on bad terms with Gu Xi, had remained silent the entire way. He no longer dared to provoke him.
This was because he knew clearly that the strength that Gu Xi had displayed was an existence that he could not compare to. Even someone as pretentious as him would feel that he was far from being able to defeat a disciple of an Ancient Sect with just one punch.
At the same time, somewhere in the viewing gallery.
Compared to the fiery atmosphere in the other seats, what was strange was that this place appeared abnormally quiet. A total of seven figures with their appearances covered by bamboo hats sat side by side. These people were all dressed in uniform, all of them wore dark red long robes.
“That fellow might become a stumbling block on our path.”
One of them raised his head slightly, revealing a pair of slightly reddened eyes. His gaze was looking in the direction where Gu Xi and the others had left.
“He’s only at the intermediate Saint stage.” The other person did not even bother to raise his head, his words filled with disdain.
“And that woman from before, I feel that she’s even more difficult to deal with.” A person who spoke in a somewhat rustic manner scratched his head and said.
“If we were to go up against the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion next, with our current status, it would be a little difficult for us to win without being exposed.”
The eyes of the man who had spoken at the beginning moved. His gaze landed on the tall platform in the distance. He looked at the figures from various sects on it. He continued, “Moreover, with these old fellows around, if we were to be accidentally exposed. I think all of you should be very clear about the consequences. There’s no need for me to say anything else, right?”
As soon as he said this, the atmosphere became quiet again.
“In that case, let’s find a chance to kill them all.”
A man with a slightly round body pointed in the direction where Xie Long and his group had left. He smiled and said, “Those guys looked very unconvinced at that time. If we do things more efficiently, we can even put the blame on them.”
“That’s great.”
They looked at each other and burst out laughing.
Vaguely, the smell of blood in the air seemed to have intensified.
On the other side, the group quickly returned to the room. Tong Shan and Tang Conglin, who had been waiting for a long time, gave Gu Xi a big hug as soon as they entered the room. They did not care about their status at all.
“Young Friend Gu, you are truly outstanding. Your future is limitless!” Tang Conglin stared at Gu Xi who was right in front of him, his voice full of excitement.
It was beyond his expectations that they could defeat the Ancient Sect so easily today. He even felt that it was an illusion for a moment.
He had even planned to pack up and leave. However, he did not expect Gu Xi to take on the entire Ancient Sect by himself. Even Xie Long’s personal disciple, Qi Feng, was not a match for him!
“I was just lucky. If Xie Long did not break the rules in the end, I’m afraid I won’t be able to hold on against another disciple from the Ancient Sect.” Gu Xi smiled humbly.
Hearing this, the people from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion behind him could not help but twitch their lips.
Was this guy treating them like fools?
After three whole battles, Gu Xi had not shown any signs of fatigue at all. He even said that he would not be able to hold on any longer if another person came... Judging from the situation at that time, it was likely that all seven people from the Ancient Sect would not be his match even if they went up on stage.
On the other hand, Tang Conglin did not care too much about Gu Xi’s excessive modesty. Instead, he let the others take their seats one by one, and his gaze fell on the arena below once again.
“There will be competitions between various sects in the future. You can choose to watch from here, so that you can understand the people who might be your opponents in the future. If you are not interested, you can return to the pavilion to rest.”
Tong Shan smiled slightly and gestured for the few of them to go ahead.
Gu Xi did not plan to stay here any longer. In his eyes, even these so-called Heaven’s Favored Sons of first-rate forces were not enough.
Rather than wasting time here, it was better to leave as soon as possible.
However, as soon as he stood up, a man dressed in a dark red long robe appeared in the arena. His appearance was covered by a bamboo hat.
“Blood Spirit Society battle against Wind Cloud Pavilion. The first round begins!”
