Surprisingly, Li Mei of the Serpentine Sect sneak attacked and successfully eliminated the previously ranked 3rd place. Her tremendous increase in combat strength after her Dao discourse with Kong Xiang was shocking. Her application and utilization of her shadow, fire and poison laws all merged seamlessly to the point where she could switch between them at will, gaining a unique rhythmic momentum that allowed her to change from a confident Fire fighter in one minute to a sneaky stealthy shadow in the next, and then a venomous snake that could bite at any time a moment later. Needless to say, the Serpentine Sect and the North Continent were very proud of their Chosen. Her pseudonym as 'Fangs' was more than apt.
The 4th ranked person had also been eliminated. Tian Yu, now dead, had previously been holding this ranking.
