Chu Yang, the Ninth Master of the Nine Tribulations Sword, sacrificed almost everything he had for the sake of improving his martial arts, including the love of his life. After spending three years locating the fifth fragment of the Nine Tribulations Sword, he was ambushed by all sides at that very place. Mortally injured with no means of escape, Chu Yang executed a sacrificial technique by plunging the Nine Tribulations Sword into his very own heart. “With the blood of my heart, ten thousand tribulations will collapse!” After witnessing the death of all his ambushers, Chu Yang’s vision began to darken. At a distance, moments before his death, he saw the mastermind who had plotted his downfall — Mo Tian Ji. With that, his eyes finally closed. However, with a start, Chu Yang once again awoke to find that he had returned to when he was sixteen years of age! Furthermore, the Sword Spirit of the Nine Tribulations Sword now resided within his Dantian, the energy center of his body! From that very moment, Chu Yang would then begin to right all of his past regrets, and carve his very own legend by fulfilling his destiny as the final Master of the Nine Tribulations Sword, and defeating the Heavenly Devils beyond the realm of the Nine Heavens Continent.
These words of Mo Tianyun were perfectly timed. Almost everyone at the scene had the exact same thought. If Ao Xieyun would suggest something like that, he was bound to win for sure. Otherwise, why would he make such a suggestion?
Everyone was strongly against it.
"I don't think that's how things work!" Li Xiongtu bellowed and rolled his eyes, "I don't think that there's a need for all the alliances to send a representative. Let the young masters of each clan go up and fight for themselves! The last one standing will get Sunlight Saber. What do you guys think?"
These were the eldest young masters of great clans; direct heirs! Everyone was so proud to think that they were extraordinarily powerful. Was there even anyone who would dare to admit that he was any less than the others?
The moment Li Xiongtu provided this suggestion, there was an immediate response from everyone.
"Good idea!"
