During the time when Yu Zi Yu was discussing Formations with Golden Monkey, the Martial Arts Tournament was approaching its conclusion.
Surprisingly, the final contenders were Spirit Butterfly and White Fox—Bai Lian Er under Nine Tails.
This left not only the other Mutant Beasts stunned but also surprised Nine Tails and Bull Demon.
However, considering the previous battles, they had no choice but to accept it.
The previous battles had been too terrifying. Despite the contenders only at Tier-3, their power was comparable to that of a typical Tier-4 Transcendent.
Giant Lightning Bear and Queen Thorns, both caught up in the excitement of the battle, used their secret techniques.
At that point, the outcome was inconsequential to them; exhilaration was their prime focus.
Giant Lightning Bear’s body was enveloped in chains of lightning as thick as a Human arm, that seemed to be reaching deep into the dark, dense clouds, seemingly connecting Heaven and Earth
| Secret Technique: Storm Lightning — Harnessing the power of the lightning from the storm, the use can unleash strength far beyond current limits. Although it causes significant damage to the body, the boost in strength is quite substantial. |
In the depths of the dark clouds, the endless surge of Lightning Energy elevated Giant Lightning Bear’s power to the level of a typical Tier-4 Transcendent.
As for Thorns, as Yu Zi Yu’s Sixth Great Beast, her Secret Technique was no less impressive.
| Secret Technique: Blood Dragon Roar — Accompanied by thunderous Dragon Roars, blood-red waves sweep through the world, dying the world red. Blood-red thorny vines rise from the ground, transforming into Crimson Flood Dragons. |
Just the sheer force of her Secret Technique lived up to her reputation as the Sixth Great Beast.
Ultimately, despite lightning’s natural advantage over plants, Queen Thorns had the upper hand.
However, after their battle concluded, Queen Thorns sensed a breakthrough opportunity and returned to the Abyssal Prison. Whereas Giant Lightning Bear, realizing the severity of his injuries, shook his head bitterly and withdrew from the Martial Arts Tournament.
As for the other seed contestant, Shadow Tiger, who fought fiercely against Titan and Long Shao, who had recently awakened the power of the Inferno Dragon, although he managed to defeat them, the cost of his victory was too high. His injuries made it difficult to continue, leading to his defeat against Bai Lian Er.
It was during that fight that many Mutant Beasts came to learn about the Green Hill’s Fox Clan under Nine Tails.
Her long, seductive eyes exuded an inexplicable charm that captivated almost everyone. Her sweet laughter, as melodious as chimes of silver bells, echoed in their mind, enchanting everyone.
“You lost…” By the time the spectating Mutant Beasts regained their senses, Bai Lian Er’s claws had already descended on Shadow Tiger’s head.
Shadow Tiger could not even react. Although his injuries might have diminished his combat power, the true terror of Green Hill’s White Fox was undeniable.
“With your strength, shouldn’t you have broken through to Tier-4?” Shadow Tiger could not help but ask. It had been bugging him all this while.
“…” This brought Bai Lian Er to silence, placing her in a rare moment of contemplation.
However, as she slowly turned around, a somewhat resigned voice reached Shadow Tiger’s ears, “I’ve consumed the Lucky Spirit Herb — Twinlife Grass, which has two forms. Currently, the White Fox Form has reached the peak of Tier-3, but my other form has not yet reached its peak…”
*Haaaa…* A helpless sigh echoed in the air as Shadow Tiger saw Bai Lian Er’s silhouette blur, revealing a slender and incredibly seductive outline of a Human.
“Two bodies, one life…” Shadow Tiger’s pupils shrank to the size of pinpricks, a look of disbelief blanketing his face.
[So, the current Bai Lian Er is only at half of her full power. No, she might not even be at half.]
Shadow Tiger, being proficient in using clones, knew that one plus one was not always equal to two. Moreover, unlike Shadow Tiger’s clones, Bai Lian Er’s dual forms were mysterious.
[She has two distinct forms, which do not interfere with each other but progress simultaneously. Without a doubt, during an actual battle, she could split into two and fight simultaneously. But…What exactly is Bai Lian Er’s other form? And what strange and fearsome abilities does it have?]
…
Not long after, at the center of the Martial Arts Tournament Field, two figures were hovering in the air.
One figure was glowing with a sacred halo. Its wings were like the Sun, radiating dazzling brilliance — Spirit Butterfly, the Queen of Butterflies.
Not only could she turn dreams into reality, but she could also transform reality into dreams. More importantly, she herself could radiate a light that could shatter the very space—Annihilation Light.
In terms of strength, she would undoubtedly rank in the top five.
The other, with white fur as clear as jade, possessed an aloof and enchanting demeanor that captivated all who beheld her — Green Hill’s White Fox, a fearsome underdog that had suddenly appeared in the Martial Arts Tournament out of nowhere.
She was rumored to be under the command of the First Great Beast — Nine Tails.
Her strength was undeniable. At least, Shadow Tiger did not last even a round against her.
And now, the clash of these two powerful Transcendents naturally drew countless Mutant Beasts to hold their breath in anticipation.
…
Meanwhile, in a corner of Misty Mountains…
“Is Little White Fox and Spirit Butterfly the final contender?” Sensing the rising auras of the two, Yu Zi Yu couldn’t help but smile.
[These two are indeed impressive. Spirit Butterfly’s abilities are not only enigmatic but also exceptionally powerful; even typical Transcendents would find them difficult to withstand.
As for Bai Lian Er, having consumed a Lucky Spirit Herb comparable to the Fleeting Moment Flower, she has gained the ability known as ‘Two Lives, One Body.’ Although this has greatly increased the difficulty of her cultivation, her combat power has long surpassed the limits of her realm.]
Personally, Yu Zi Yu was in favor of Bai Lian Er winning the tournament.
“Master, who do you think will be the champion?” Suddenly, as if sensing Yu Zi Yu’s thoughts, Golden Monkey asked with a smile.
“Champion…” Yu Zi Yu frankly answered, “It’s going to be Bai Lian Er. She is close to perfecting her second form. Her Spiritual Energy is more than double of a typical Tier-3 Mutant Beast. Just this fact alone granted her an edge above others. Among her peers, very few can rival her.”
Hearing his opinion, Golden Monkey nodded in agreement. “Indeed.”
