Chapter 3810: The Deciding Match
Earlier, Duan Ling Tians doppelganger from the law of space appeared and joined him in his attack, making the battle a two-against-one battle. It was only natural that Lady Seven, who was considerably strong, lost to him.
At this time, apart from Hua Tian Du and Lady Seven, who had just been defeated, the expressions of Du Po Jun and the others turned grim. They did not expect Duan Ling Tian to have such a trick up his sleeve.
Duan Ling Tian... Du Po Juns expression was dark. Initially, he had thought that even if he was unable to defeat Duan Ling Tian, it should not be a problem to fight to a draw. However, after witnessing Duan Ling Tian and Lady Sevens match, he thought he would likely be defeated if he had to face Duan Ling Tian.
On the other hand, Du Qian Juns expression looked rather sinister as he cursed inwardly, Damn it! How could he have such a trick up his sleeve?! Hes just a lowly cultivator from a Devata Realm!
Du Qian Jun burned with envy. He wished he could rob Duan Ling Tian of Duan Ling Tians abilities.
At the same time, some of the Lords of Gods from various forces looked at Duan Ling Tian with a complex gaze.
One of them said emotionally with a sigh, It seems like hes going to rank first.
Although there were many outstanding participants, none could compare to Duan Ling Tian at this moment. Moreover, this was not the limit of his strength. If his doppelganger had wielded a prominent divine artifact as well, he would be even stronger. After all, no one doubted that someone like Duan Ling Tian would have a problem borrowing another prominent divine artifact. There were three Supreme Elders from the Linghu clan present today. Each of them definitely had at least one prominent divine artifact with them.
Not long after Lady Sevens defeat, Lan Yu Shan said, Continue.
Two opponents, whom the crowd had classified to be in the third tier, fought. The duo exchanged about 100 moves before the match ended in a tie.
Even after a few rounds, the ranking did not change. Ouyang Jia Chen was still in first place after knocking Peng Dong off the spot.
Just as the match ended, the crowd began to discuss among themselves again.
Its Du Po Juns turn!
Who do you think hell challenge?
Du Po Jun, who was ranked 11th, slowly swept his gaze across the participants before he decisively challenged a participant who was considered to be in the third tier. With that, he easily defeated his opponent within ten moves and took over his opponents rank at the ninth place. He remained calm and was not in hurry to rise to the top.
Following that, it was Situ Chengs turn. Situ Cheng was from a lord-grade force, the Situ clan. He flashed into the battle ring and challenged Deng Jian Yi. It took him only fifty moves to defeat Deng Jian Yi.
After a few more matches, it was finally Duan Ling Tians turn again. At this time, he was ranked eighth.
Duan Ling Tian attracted everyones attention as soon as he flashed into the battle ring.
Following that, the crowd shifted their eyes almost in unison to Ouyang Jian Chen, who was ranked first. They were certain that Duan Ling Tian would challenge Ouyang Jian Chen.
The crowd was proven right when Duan Ling Tian called out, Ouyang Jian Chen.
Ouyang Jian Chen did not waste time and appeared in the battle ring immediately. He looked like an elegant young swordsman as he stood in the battle ring. However, unlike his previous match, he was clearly not as calm. His expression was solemn as he said, I dont think Im your match, but Id like to see how wide the gap is between our strength.
The strength Duan Ling Tian had displayed during his previous match was enough to convince the prideful Ouyang Jian Chen.
Duan Ling Tian did not disappoint Ouyang Jian Chen and defeated the latter with three moves. Similar to his previous match, he did not equip his law of spaces doppelganger with a weapon, which meant he was still holding back his strength.
Duan Ling Tian wins again!
With the way things are progressing, I have a feeling he might really end up ranking first!
The crowd was rather confident about Duan Ling Tian.
Even Lan Yu Shan, a Black Dragon Elder of the Flying Dragon Sect, looked at Duan Ling Tian with a kinder gaze compared to before. He could already see Duan Ling Tian surpassing the prodigies in the history of the Flying Dragon Sect. After all, he was certain there was currently no one in the Eastern Ridge Mansion who possessed Duan Ling Tians strength before reaching 3,000 years old. Perhaps, there were only a few with such talents in the history of the Eastern Ridge Mansion.
....
Due to Duan Ling Tians strength, no one challenged him for the time being.
Even Ji Wu Chang and Hua Tian Du did not challenge Duan Ling Tian. After all, it was not advantageous for them to challenge Duan Ling Tian so quickly. If they were seriously injured, their performance would be affected during their future matches.
With this, Duan Ling Tian was like a spectator as he watched the matches with Ding Yan and Hou Qing Ning.
As the trio watched the matches, Hou Qing Ning would speak to Duan Ling Tian once in awhile.
Duan Ling Tian, Ji Wu Chang is quite strong. Hes not struggling when faced with Lady Seven.
Duan Ling Tian, it seems like Du Po Jun is going to lose. I dont think hes a match for Hua Tian Du!
Hm? Our Murong clans Murong Luo Feng should be able to rank at the bottom of the top ten places, right?
The rankings, except for the first place, continued to change as the matches went on.
During this time, Hua Tian Du really stood out. Not only did he defeat Du Po Jun, but he also defeated Lady Seven, Ji Wu Chang, and Ouyang Jian Chen.
Ouyang Jian Chen might have lost to Hua Tian Du, but he managed to defeat Lady Seven and Ji Wu Chang.
At this time, the rankings of the top 10 participants were as followed:
First, Duan Ling Tian.
Second, Hua Tian Du.
Third, Ouyang Jian Chen.
Fourth, Lady Seven.
Fifth, Ji Wuchang.
Sixth, Du Po Jun.
Seventh, Peng Dong.
Eighth, Situ Cheng.
Ninth, Qin Yuan Zheng.
Tenth, Murong Luo Feng.
Deng Jian Yi, who was ranked 11th, and the other participants after him had challenged almost everyone, except for Duan Ling Tian, and were defeated. With this, the only way for them to return to the top 10 places was to challenge Duan Ling Tian. Naturally, they had no delusions about defeating Duan Ling Tian and wisely gave up.
The crowd was engaged in a heated discussion. At this time, many of them had noticed Hua Tian Du had not used his bloodline power at all even when he fought Ouyang Jian Chen, Lady Seven, and Ji Wu Chang.
It seems like Hua Tian Du is the only one capable of facing Duan Ling Tian. The strength he displayed so far isnt inferior to that of Duan Ling Tian.
Thats right. Hu Tian Du still hasnt used his bloodline power, and Duan Ling Tian stillhas yet to equip his doppelganger with a prominent divine artifact.
While the crowd was busy discussing Duan Ling Tian and Hua Tian Du, Lan Yu Shan asked, Ji Wu Chang, Du Po Jun, does any of you want to challenge Duan Ling Tian?
The duo shook their heads immediately.
Ji Wu Chang was not familiar with Duan Ling Tian and had no enmity with the latter. He was aware of his strength and did not think much about giving up on challenging Duan Ling Tian.
On the contrary, Du Po Juns expression was rather unsightly as he shook his head to indicate he was not going to challenge Duan Ling Tian. After all, the 10,000 Devils Sect had a grudge against Duan Ling Tian. He felt that he should have challenged Duan Ling Tian, but he was also worried Duan Ling Tian would seriously injure him due to the grudge.
Du Po Jun knew that if he was severely injured, those ranked behind him would definitely seize the chance to challenge him for a chance to rise higher in ranks. All in all, not only was there no benefit to challenging Duan Ling Tian, but he might even suffer a huge loss.
Meanwhile, after receiving Du Po Jun and Ji Wu Changs replies, Lan Yu Shan said, Since thats the case, the deciding match for first place will be between Duan Ling Tian and Hua Tian Du.
After a brief pause, Lan Yu Shan asked, If anybody has any objection, please speak up now.
No one objected. Duan Ling Tian and Hua Tian Dus strength was evident.
Very well. Before deciding the first place, well confirm the other rankings first, Lan Yu Shan said.
With this, a few more participants issued challenges to try and rise in ranks. Alas, all of them were defeated without an exception. Hence, there were no changes in the ranking.
The third to the 15th places were all finalized at this time.
Finally, Lan Yu Shan said, The battle between Duan Ling Tian and Hua Tian Du will be the final match of the Latent Dragon Grand Contest. Well confirm the ranking after the match and conclude the contest.
A slightly complicated expression could be seen on Lan Yu Shans face as he spoke. During the previous Latent Dragon Grand Contests, the fight for the top few ranks had always been very fierce. However, this time, Duan Ling Tian and Hua Tian Dus strength had easily crushed the other participants.
