After saying hello to Wang Bi’Er and the others, Tang Yi entered the matchmaking mode.
WHOOSH! He once again vanished from inside the Qi Shield and entered that vast, white world.
When he had come out before, Wang Bi’Er had explained to him that this vast, white world was a place similar to a waiting area.
After entering, one had to wait to be matched with an opponent. Only after a match was found would they be transported to an arena to spar.
If you felt the wait was too long, or suddenly no longer wished to compete and wanted to exit matchmaking, you could return to the location of the Qi Shield with just a thought. It was incredibly convenient.
This time, Tang Yi’s wait was a bit longer. Unlike before, where he was transported out after just a moment, he waited for about ten-plus minutes before being teleported away.
Upon re-entering the sparring arena, Tang Yi immediately looked toward his opponent. He saw that this opponent had a dignified and imposing air, radiating immense confidence. Embroidered on the chest of his clothes was a pattern of the Five Elements: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth were all there.
Based on his previous experience, the Lii Palace majored in the Sword Dao, so its disciples had a sword-shaped pattern embroidered on their chests, just like the one Tang Yi had met before.
And since the disciple before him had the Five Elements embroidered on his chest, he must be from the Qian Palace. After all, the Qian Palace majored in the Five Elements Power.
When Tang Yi saw this imposing disciple from the Qian Palace, the disciple also saw Tang Yi. He seemed slightly stunned for a moment upon seeing Tang Yi, then charged toward him.
Without any unnecessary chatter, he immediately launched an attack at Tang Yi.
"No Regrets Flame Force!"
WHOOSH!
He struck out with a palm, sending out gusts of powerful wind. A scorching flame shot forth from the disciple’s palm, instantly making the surrounding air unbearably hot.
’Hm? Interesting.’
Tang Yi glanced over and couldn’t help but smile. When it came to playing with fire, no one was better at it than him.
One had to remember that the Mountain Shattering Earth Splitting Slash was an attack composed entirely of flames. Not only did it involve scorching magma, but also powerful waves of fire that swept back and forth.
Besides the Mountain Shattering Earth Splitting Slash, Tang Yi was also a Martial Artist who possessed an Exotic Fire like the Three Thousand Flame Flames. Ordinary flames couldn’t harm him in the slightest.
So, upon seeing the flame in the disciple’s palm, Tang Yi showed no fear at all. He extended his hand forward, passing straight through the jet of fire, and with a light flick, struck the Qian Palace disciple’s palm.
After all this, Tang Yi’s hand was completely unharmed. Even his robes, protected by his immense power, were untouched.
The Qian Palace disciple’s flame was like air, utterly useless.
However...
"AH!"
The Qian Palace disciple let out a miserable cry. Not only had he failed to harm Tang Yi, but with a CRACK, his palm seemed to have been broken by Tang Yi’s light flick.
SWISH!
The Qian Palace disciple clutched his arm and rapidly retreated. After that single exchange, his gaze toward Tang Yi became incredibly solemn.
But even now, he remained silent and showed no signs of fear. After his first attack failed and he was injured by Tang Yi, he took a breath and charged at Tang Yi once again.
"Fierce Light Leg!"
The Qian Palace disciple’s right hand was injured, so he switched from a hand-based Martial Technique to a leg-based one.
Although he had switched body parts, the technique’s power hadn’t weakened in the slightest. In fact, it was even a bit stronger.
This was because the technique he had used before was a Profound Tier Middle Grade Martial Technique, while the one he was using now was a Profound Tier Upper Grade Martial Technique. Of course its power would be greater.
But...
BANG!
Tang Yi lightly slapped the Qian Palace disciple’s leg, redirecting it elsewhere. The immense force sent the disciple flying.
SWISH!
As the Qian Palace disciple was sent flying, Tang Yi swiftly followed. He then gently bent two fingers and flicked.
THUMP!
He flicked the Qian Palace disciple on the forehead, sending him flying even farther. The disciple’s body only slammed heavily onto the ground after flying more than ten meters.
Looking at the Qian Palace disciple’s forehead now, the spot Tang Yi had flicked was already red and swollen, creating a pathetic sight.
Of course, this was only because Tang Yi had held back. Otherwise, the Qian Palace disciple’s forehead wouldn’t just be red and swollen—his head would have been flicked open by Tang Yi.
Just how powerful was Tang Yi, a Battle King who had consumed countless Full-Attribute Pills?
How could the head of a mere West Mansion Outer Mansion Disciple possibly withstand it?
A swollen forehead was getting off light!
"Victory for 59416!"
VWOOM!
Just as the Qian Palace disciple hit the ground, a soft hum sounded, and both he and Tang Yi were transported out.
A two-win streak!
Tang Yi had secured his second victory in the Eight Palaces Deer Battle Hall!
Having won the second round, Tang Yi continued to queue for a match, entering that vast, white space once more. However, the matchmaking took even longer this time. It seemed that as his record improved, finding a suitable opponent was becoming more and more difficult.
For over ten minutes, Tang Yi still hadn’t been matched with an opponent.
Of course, this long wait was only because the Eight Palaces Deer Battle Hall had not yet determined Tang Yi’s true strength. If it had, Tang Yi wouldn’t be able to find an opponent at all!
A Battle King Powerhouse who could defeat a Battle Emperor—what kind of opponent could he possibly have in the West Mansion Outer Mansion’s Eight Palaces?
Meanwhile, as Tang Yi waited for an opponent, the outside world was growing increasingly clamorous.
He had no idea how much of a shock his victory over a second opponent had sent through the outside world.
At this moment, on the leaderboards, everyone in the Outer Mansion Eight Palaces could see that the ranking for temporary ID 59416 had risen again!
It had actually jumped from 1,153rd place to 766th!
Not only had he broken into the top 1,000, but he had also soared like he had wings, leaping over 300 other disciples to land at 766th place. This was absolutely shocking.
Moreover, the score for temporary ID 59416 had reached 12,300 points, jumping by several hundred points at once!
One must understand that the higher the rank, the more difficult it was to gain even a single point. To jump several hundred points at once was practically unheard of.
One victory, and he shot up to 1,153rd place!
Two victories, and he shot up to 766th place!
As a mere candidate, he had broken into the top 1,000!
And he had gained several hundred points in one go!
This candidate had set several new records. This was something that had never happened in the West Mansion Outer Mansion for as long as anyone could remember.
Furthermore, everyone had received news from the Qian Palace that this candidate with temporary ID 59416 had just defeated Wuu Yongjia, who was ranked 768th in the Qian Palace!
You have to understand, that was Wuu Yongjia!
The genius candidate who had once taken third place in the West Mansion’s House Entrance Examination!
Not only was he personally powerful, but he was also handsome and carried himself with a dignified air, and he was held in high regard by the Qian Palace.
Even a disciple like him had actually lost to that candidate!
