Eight warriors advanced to the next round of the Martial Arts Competition. They were tasked with drawing lots to determine their one-on-one opponents, based on the 'Wolfs and Tigers' carvings on the beads within the light orbs. The draw determined the first matchups: the Violent-tempered Woman drew the Wolf bead, becoming Su Tingzong's opponent, while Liu Yuan drew the Tiger bead, facing Li Can. Scholar Ye Jing drew the Jackal bead and will face Yan Ji, leaving Lin Bai to face Feng Siyun with the Leopard bead.

Once the eight people finished drawing lots one by one, this round of the duel officially began.

In the order of Wolves and Tigers.

Yan Ji and Scholar Ye Jing, holding the Wolf Pearl, will be the first match!

Su Tingzong and the Violent-tempered Woman, holding the Wolf Pearl, will be the second match.

Li Can and Liu Yuan, holding the Tiger Pearl, will be the third match.

Feng Siyun and Lin Bai, holding the Leopard Pearl, will be the fourth match!

The Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures said: "Since you have all finished drawing, then please, warriors who do not need to compete on stage temporarily, return to your seats and rest for now!"

"After the previous round ends, you can come to the Lotus Platform!"

"Warriors holding the Wolf Pearl need not leave, you will be the first match!"

The Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures said.

Immediately, Lin Bai and others bowed to the Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures, then left the Lotus Platform and returned to their seats.

And Yan Ji and Ye Jing did not leave, standing on the Lotus Platform, waiting for the martial arts competition to begin.

Shangguan Cun watched Lin Bai walking back and immediately smiled: "Brother Bai, I didn’t know you were so strong, actually defeating Xia Qiu of the Poison God Clan!"

After Lin Bai sat down, he chuckled and said: "The disciples of the Poison God Clan are indeed tricky!"

Shangguan Cun chuckled: "Indeed, the warriors on the Barbaric Ancient Continent are most unwilling to provoke the Poison God Clan because this family often doesn’t play by the rules!"

"Come, come, drink!"

Shangguan Cun pulled Lin Bai to drink.

Lin Bai also smiled and chatted with Ye Suxin for a few words.

At this moment, the Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures transmitted his voice again: "If you are ready, you can start!"

On the Lotus Platform, Yan Ji and Scholar Ye Jing looked at each other, both faces showing the intent to fight.

"Please!" Yan Ji said with a faint smile.

Scholar Ye Jing chuckled: "I know you are a legendary genius of the Southern Continent, your strength can be said to be the strongest among the younger generation on the Southern Continent!"

"However, I am not weak either!"

"Since I have the fortune to fight against you, I want to see how powerful a legendary genius really is!"

Although Scholar Ye Jing was somewhat disappointed during the drawing of lots earlier, now he has accepted this reality, and at the moment he even shows a bit of fighting spirit toward Yan Ji.

Yan Ji chuckled: "That’s just vain fame given to me by the warriors of the Southern Continent, whatever legendary genius, I’d rather not have it, if you like, I’ll give it to you!"

"Do you know how many warriors come to challenge me every year because of this title of legendary genius?"

"I’m not like Su Tingzong, a cold-blooded ruthless person, nor a contentious one, these challenging warriors really annoy me."

Yan Ji shook his head and said.

Scholar Ye Jing chuckled: "That’s inevitable, Yan Ji, to wear the crown, bear its weight!"

"Since you are a legendary genius of the Southern Continent, you must withstand the warriors coming to challenge!"

"Let’s cut the idle talk, let’s begin!"

Scholar Ye Jing said coldly, a sense of cold fighting spirit arose from him.

"Alright!" Yan Ji chuckled.

Immediately the two rushed toward each other in unison.

In an instant, two ultimate beams of light and shadow fiercely collided.

Every collision echoed with earth-shattering noises.

The two were on the Lotus Platform, going back and forth, fighting tirelessly.

Shangguan Cun, Ye Suxin, and Lin Bai also collectively watched the great battle on the Lotus Platform.

Shangguan Cun chuckled: "Brother Bai, who do you think will win between Yan Ji and this man?"

Lin Bai softly said: "Hard to say!"

Shangguan Cun asked Lin Bai in confusion: "Huh? Why hard to say? I thought you would immediately say Yan Ji would win, after all, he is a legendary genius!"

Lin Bai laughed bitterly: "A warrior who can walk out of the Void Arena, I think they aren’t weak; moreover, days ago, we were trapped together in the Dried-up Well World!"

"I always feel that the warriors trapped in that Dried-up Well World must be terrifying existences on this Southern Continent!"

"Therefore, I cannot say who is stronger between Ye Jing and Yan Ji!"

Shangguan Cun laughed: "Then let’s wait and see!"

The fierce battle on the Lotus Platform lasted for a full half an hour.

Yan Ji and Scholar Ye Jing exchanged thousands of moves with each other.

At this moment, Lin Bai whispered: "Why do I feel Yan Ji can see through Ye Jing’s moves? Every move, every style Ye Jing makes is within Yan Ji’s control!"

"Originally, Yan Ji could win in thirty rounds, but he didn’t rush, instead it seems he is playing with Ye Jing?"

Lin Bai frowned and whispered.

Shangguan Cun softly said: "That’s Yan Ji’s Martial Soul, the Quasi-Divine Martial Soul, Guan Tian Mu!"

"The most basic secret skill of Guan Tian Mu can easily see through the opponent’s moves and spot the opponent’s flaws."

"It is said that when this Martial Soul reaches its peak, it can see through the void of the world and perceive the creation of heaven and earth!"

"One glance to see thousands of miles, one glance to see tens of thousands of miles, look up at the gods of Nine Heavens, look down at the demons of Nine Nether!"

Lin Bai realized and said: "I see!"

When Yan Ji and Scholar Ye Jing entwined until nine thousand rounds.

Yan Ji suddenly struck Ye Jing’s chest with a palm, sending Scholar Ye Jing flying off the Lotus Platform.

At this moment, Ye Jing who fell under the Lotus Platform was already seriously injured all over, his hair was disheveled, his complexion pale, and even the Elixir Field Spiritual Power within his dantian was almost completely exhausted.

"Concede." Yan Ji chuckled.

Scholar Ye Jing laughed bitterly: "There was no concession, I truly cannot beat you!"

Ye Jing bowed to Yan Ji, turned, and walked towards the Tianji tribe direction.

The Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures said: "Yan Ji, since you have won, come down and rest!"

"Next, the warriors holding the Wolf Pearl, come up!"

The Venerable Lord of Thousands Treasures said.

As Yan Ji and Ye Jing’s martial arts competition just ended, doubtful voices came from the surrounding warriors.

"Why is Yan Ji so weak? He actually fought Ye Jing for half an hour, lasted over nine thousand moves before defeating him?"

"Is this still a legendary genius?"

"Yeah, too weak!"

Many people had some doubts about the strength of Yan Ji, the legendary genius.

Shangguan Cun chuckled: "It seems many warriors around think Yan Ji’s strength as a legendary genius is somewhat unworthy of the title!"

Lin Bai chuckled: "They understand nothing! Brother Shangguan, did you see, just now when Yan Ji and Ye Jing ended, the Elixir Field Spiritual Power within Ye Jing was already consumed empty!"

"Instead, look at Yan Ji, he is still at ease, the Divine Elixir Spiritual Power within his body is probably very abundant!"

"I estimate the capacity of Yan Ji’s Divine Elixir Spiritual Power is probably ten times that of warriors of the same level!"

"He is indeed very strong!"

After watching Yan Ji’s martial arts competition, Lin Bai had no doubts about Yan Ji, the legendary genius.

Instead, he felt that Yan Ji was very powerful.

And just as Lin Bai and Shangguan Cun were still discussing Yan Ji’s strength.

At this time, all the warriors on the Heaven and Earth Lotus exploded and exclaimed!

"One sword!"

"Su Tingzong actually defeated the opponent with one sword!"

"This is the strength of a legendary genius!"

Countless warriors exclaimed.

Lin Bai and Shangguan Cun hurriedly looked toward the Lotus Platform, saw Su Tingzong with overwhelming Sword Intention, slowly inserting his Treasure Sword back into the Sword Sheath, and disdainfully glancing at the Violent-tempered Woman below the Lotus Platform who was slashed and scarred by Sword Qi.

Su Tingzong defeated the Violent-tempered Woman with one sword!
