Chapter 163 Heads Fall to the Ground
The barrier covering the arena slowly dissipated.
The Taiyi Sect Leader retracted the crystal ball and staff, stepping back into the lawful good camp.
The evil aligned demi-gods watched his figure, falling into silence.
Clearly, the Star Lord's battle prowess exceeded everyone's expectations. This demi-god had been in seclusion for sixty years, rarely making a move, and records of his battles were almost non-existent.
The demi-gods present only knew of two instances. One was when Shura blocked the gates of the capital, and the Star Lord and Fire God personally confronted him, but that battle didn't cause much of a stir, and the truth was unknown.
The other was the battle for the Light Compass, in which the Star Lord's performance was unremarkable.
Everyone knew that the Star Lord excelled at deduction and unparalleled strategy, but he was only good at deduction and strategy. Who would have thought that he would display such astonishing combat power today?
The Wine God died because of it.
Ling Tu suddenly raised his head, revealing a pale, handsome face! His dark eye sockets were deep and contemplative, as if pondering something.
In contrast, the lawful good demi-gods were overjoyed. In truth, they didn't believe that the Star Lord would definitely win. Although the power of the sun restrained chaotic abilities, the Star Lord was not a demi-god who specialized in the sun, but rather controlled the origin of the stars.
And stars are not good at fighting.
It was just that there was no one more suitable than the Taiyi Sect Leader, so they pushed him out. If he lost, at most they would lose some points.
They didn't expect the Star Lord to defeat the Wine God with overwhelming force, demonstrating astonishing combat power.
While the lawful good demi-gods were shocked by the Star Lord's combat power, they silently began to calculate in their hearts.
The strongest in the evil camp was Shura. In a one-on-one fight, only Void could contend with him, and even then, it was just contention, with a very low chance of winning.
Besides Shura, there were the Wine God, the Lord of Myriad Demons, and Ling Tu. The first two were both level 11 powerhouses. Apart from the sleeping Wind and Thunder Gods, no one could contend with them.
The latter was the Lord of Taiyin. In terms of level, Ling Tu, who had just completed Taiyin, was at level 10, but his position was higher than ordinary demi-gods.
Now that the Wine God was dead, the only three who posed an overwhelming threat to the lawful good demi-gods were these three.
The remaining evil demi-gods, despite being stronger than the lawful good ones due to their class characteristics, were only slightly stronger at the same level, and could not form an overwhelming advantage.
Fu Qingxuan scrutinized the Star Lord for a moment, then retracted her moonlight and said, "In the second match, the evil camp should send one of Ling Tu, Shura, or the Lord of Myriad Demons. Although Ling Tu has just become the Lord of Taiyin, the complete Taiyin position is higher than us. Who will handle the second match?"
The Void demi-god crossed his arms and said, "Clearly, it's safest for me to go. Whether it's Ling Tu or the Lord of Myriad Demons, I can suppress them. But this time, we're the first to send participants. If I go, and they send Shura... then I might have to delete my account and start over."
"But if I don't go, if any of you go, they can use Ling Tu and the Lord of Myriad Demons to win."
Old Ancestor Liu stroked the tortoise shell in his hand, "We can concede the second match to the evil camp. We happen to have some points that we can use to exhaust one of the three. Let the Void demi-god handle the other one. That way, we'll be tied two to one. Next, as long as we win one match, we can seize a core of the formation."
"After that, if everyone has to participate in a single arena match for it to end, then there will be five more matches, corresponding to the Fear King, a God, and a Zhulong (Torch Dragon)."
"In the five matches, as long as we win two, after the arena match ends, the evil camp will only have five demi-gods left, while we still have ten. Even if we only win one match out of the five, we still have eleven demi-gods, and we can still defeat the evil camp with numbers in the battle for the core of the formation."
The Liu family demi-god continued, "The worst case scenario is that we lose all five subsequent matches. The five alliance leaders combine to restrain Shura, and we still have five demi-gods, while the evil camp has four. Due to the characteristics of the evil classes, the outcome is even, but losing all five matches is impossible. In our camp, we still have the Goddess of Beauty. With her special abilities, as long as she doesn't encounter the Illusion God, Shura, or Ling Tu, she will be invincible."
The Star Lord opened up the situation for the lawful good camp.
The Liu family demi-god concluded with a final assessment, "In this arena match, the lawful good side has at least an 80% chance of winning."
However, at that moment, the Spirit Realm's notification sounded in everyone's ears:
[Ding, rule update, the rule that each person can only participate once is cancelled...]
[Ding! The above rule has been cancelled!]
[Ding, rule update, the immunity mechanism of points is cancelled, the above rule is cancelled....]
[Ding! Rule update, either side only needs to win three matches to end the arena match!]
Hearing the notification in their ears, the demi-gods felt like they had entered a women's bathhouse, with one wave after another....
They realized that the Spirit Realm was fighting against the invaders.
After the Wine God's death, the situation became favorable to the lawful good camp, so the invaders tried to interfere with the Spirit Realm, formulating new rules that favored the evil camp, such as cancelling the limit on the number of participations, and cancelling the life-saving immunity of points, but they were not successful.
From the results, both sides made some "compromises". The arena match had one more condition for ending.
The demi-gods didn't have to fight to the last person. Whether it was lawful good or evil, as long as they won three matches, they could end the arena match and enter a new round of battle for the core of the formation.
The Void demi-god looked at Old Ancestor Liu of the Liu family and asked, "What's the winning percentage now?"
The Liu family demi-god held it in for a long time, then flung his sleeves and said, "Less than 50%."
Shura, the Lord of Myriad Demons, and Ling Tu can almost certainly win two matches. After all, the lawful good side still has Void, the top-up player who claims to be able to fight three at once.
The remaining two demi-gods of the Void Sect, and two demi-gods of the Spiritual Energy Society, are stronger than the lawful good demi-gods of the same level due to their class characteristics, so the winning percentage is less than 50%.
The Void demi-god gasped, "If we can't even get a fifty-fifty chance, aren't we screwed?"
"So who's going up in the second match?" Chief Chi Huo rubbed his hands together.
"In terms of destructive power, I'm stronger than all of you, and I can be reborn in flames forever. Whether it's Ling Tu or the Lord of Myriad Demons, as long as they can't kill me, they'll be blown to death by me."
The demi-gods looked at each other, unable to refute.
Marshal's output is the undisputed leader among the demi-gods.
But her weaknesses are also obvious. She lacks defense and self-healing ability. She is very strong in team fights. As long as there is defense and recovery to support her, she will be invincible.
But in an arena battle where she can't escape, it's too easy to be targeted. On the other hand, the Fire God's self-destruction ultimate move is not weaker than the Marshal's in terms of power, and the passive skill Rebirth in Flames allows him to keep reviving and exploding until his spiritual power is exhausted.
If he is determined to die together with the evil demi-gods, he can definitely do it. Except for Shura, the evil demi-gods are at risk of dying.
"Fu Qingxuan!"
A few kilometers away, the voice of the Fear King came, "Do you dare to have a life-and-death battle with me? I bet my life, and you bet your life, just like back then. If you dare, then come to the arena."
Fu Qingxuan turned her head and looked at the handsome young man in a black suit and a silver men's earring on his left ear, and responded faintly.
"Fear, I won't gamble the entire lawful good side with you for a moment of anger."
The Fear King raised his eyebrows.
"I guarantee you that as long as you go, your opponent will definitely be me. If anyone doesn't have martial ethics and replaces me, even if it's Shura, I'll turn against him."
Hearing this, Fu Qingxuan pondered for a moment, then looked at her companions, "I think it's possible. I'm confident in defeating Fear. If he lies to me and Shura comes up, I can use points to get immunity."
The Star Lord shook his head slightly, "What if it's Zhulong (Torch Dragon) of the Spiritual Energy Society who comes up?"
Zhulong (Torch Dragon)'s skills restrain scouts. Once Fu Qingxuan loses to Zhulong (Torch Dragon), Shura, Ling Tu, and the Lord of Myriad Demons will still have a situation of three wins and two losses, and the lawful good camp will lose the arena match.
The subsequent change is that the evil camp controls three formations, and the lawful good camp controls two.
"If there is another arena match after that, the lawful good camp will almost have no chance of winning. The end result is that everyone will be wiped out in the dungeon. Chief Jiang going into battle is the most stable. Whether it's the Illusion God or Zhulong (Torch Dragon), neither can restrain him. Explosion is art," said the Void demi-god.
As the Fire God's strongest killing move - self-destruction!
Even the Illusion God's nihility ability cannot completely resolve the power of the explosion. Zhulong (Torch Dragon) can only bear the Fire God's self-destruction.
Chief Jiang proudly landed in the arena.
The Fear King looked disappointed.
Chief Jiang, with his fiery red hair, glared at the evil demi-gods, "Which of you will fight?"
Shura, like an iron tower with three heads and eight arms, silently descended into the arena.
Before the sound fell, the lawful good demi-gods behind him raised their hands in unison, "We surrender and exempt ourselves from this arena match."
Chief Jiang's expression instantly froze.
At this time, Shura seemed to react and nodded towards Chief Jiang.
"You son of a bitch..." Chief Jiang left the barrier with veins popping on his forehead, just as he was about to descend and point, the arena opened.
Then it subsided again. The effect of one of the lawful good camp's formations was deducted by one day.
Mount Shu.
The golden arrow hit Nvba and disappeared silently, as if it had been teleported to another space-time.
Zhang Yuanqing, who had been preparing for a long time, grabbed the Purple Gold Shield without panic, activated the second form of the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, and formed two layers of protection in front of him.
Creak! In the harsh noise, the Purple Gold Shield was directly pierced, and then the phantom of the golden dragon wrapped around his body shattered.
Zhang Yuanqing calmly snapped his fingers and used the Star Escape technique to create distance.
The moment the fingers snapped.
"Pa!"
He saw a flash of white light on the crown of Nvba's head. Immediately, in his vision, the heaven and earth began to spin.
"Gurgle..."
Zhang Yuanqing's head rolled off his neck and fell to the ground with blood.
