Chapter 409: Revealed

...

The Next Day.

The most iconic building in the Martial Spirit City, also known as the sacred place in the minds of the members of the Martial Spirit Hall, the most noble Supreme Pontiff Palace.

Sunlight poured down on the Supreme Pontiff Palace, reflecting golden brilliance, appearing extremely sacred and magnificent.

In front of the hall, there was a large square, and at the center of the square was a circular Spirit Arena that was two hundred meters wide. The final match of the two teams of the tournament, the most sacred place in the world of spirit masters, was held there.

Bibi Dong sat on the high platform, holding the gemstone scepter that symbolized the Supreme Pontiff's status in her delicate jade hand. Her majestic gaze scanned the area below, her smooth black hair gently swaying in the breeze, radiating extraordinary elegance.

Sitting with Bibi Dong on the high platform was Ning Fengzhi, the head of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, one of the three Upper Sects, as well as three Titled Douluo powerhouses.

They were respectively Ghost Douluo, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Sword Douluo.

The leaders of the two most powerful and representative forces on the continent, along with three Titled Douluo whose spirit power reached the level of 95 and above, exuded an overwhelming momentum.

Because this was the sacred Supreme Pontiff Palace, the ones who could come here to watch the finals were primarily spirit masters who had some connections and resources. So, they had the opportunity to watch the finals of this Spirit Master Competition at such a close distance.

As for ordinary spirit masters who specifically came from other places to watch the competition in Spirit City, they could only watch from the high platform built by Spirit Hall on the mountainside.

If their eyesight wasn't good enough, they would probably only see the visual effects produced by the collision of spirit skills. It was truly a pity for them to have come from afar only to have their viewing experience limited.

Zeng Yi also wanted to go to the high platform on the mountainside to watch the match. After all, Zeng Yi was quite confident in his own eyesight. However, Bibi Dong did not agree because he was also the protagonist today.

Of course, he was not the protagonist of the match on the Spirit Arena, but the protagonist who would appear after the final match.

Moreover, what would happen after the match was even more exciting and explosive than the final match between the two teams.

Therefore, it was impossible for Bibi Dong to let Zeng Yi's presence disappear from his sight. What if this guy slipped away?

Not letting Zeng Yi sit on the podium was already the biggest concession Bibi Dong could make. It was impossible for Zeng Yi to run off to a place far away with a mixed crowd.

There was no way, so Zeng Yi had to find a place near the Spirit Arena with a larger crowd. This way, he wouldn't be too conspicuous.

On the Spirit Arena, fourteen people were already standing, the Shrek Academy team and the Martial Spirit Hall Team, the two teams were confronting each other, preparing for the battle to begin.

However, Zhu Zhuqing, on the Shrek Academy side, didn't pay too much attention to the seven members of the opposing team. Instead, her gaze focused on the spectator stands surrounding the Spirit Arena, scanning around as if searching for something?

During the previous matches, when she was fighting with Luo Ying, someone saved her at the most critical moment. It was two swords that separated her from Luo Ying. In her last moment of unconsciousness, she saw the sword that hindered her turn into drifting bamboo leaves.

Wasn't that the effect of Zeng Yi's spirit skill?

Therefore, Zhu Zhuqing was certain that Zeng Yi must be somewhere in the spectator stands, watching this match.

"Where are you?"

"Since you're here, why don't you come out and see me?"

Zhu Zhuqing scanned the area with her gaze, hoping to find Zeng Yi's figure. However, it was indeed difficult to find his familiar face among thousands of people in a short period of time.

"Zhuqing, what's wrong with you? You seem a bit absent-minded. Is it because your injuries haven't healed yet?" Xiao Wu, who was beside Zhu Zhuqing, asked with concern when she saw Zhu Zhuqing's expression.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing snapped back to reality and lightly shook her head.

"It's nothing, just thinking about something."

The final match was about to begin, so Zhu Zhuqing had to temporarily give up the idea of finding Zeng Yi and focused her gaze on the seven members of the Martial Spirit Hall Team across from them, her eyes becoming concentrated.

Their main task now was to win this match.

After some verbal communication and "friendly" greetings, under the announcement of the referee, the battle officially began.

Zeng Yi sat in the spectator stands, watching the confrontation between the two teams.

At the beginning, they were just testing each other with attacks, nothing interesting.

However, on the Martial Spirit Hall Team's side, unable to bear the loneliness, Hu Liena and her older brother Xie Yue showcased their Martial Spirit fusion skill. Instantly, the majority of the field was covered in pink mist, making it impossible to see the situation inside.

However, this situation seemed to give the Martial Spirit Hall Team the upper hand, as the pink mist covered all seven members of the Shrek Academy team.

But this situation confused Zeng Yi.

This cloud of mist rising on the Spirit Arena significantly affected the spectators' view of the match!

Zeng Yi admitted that his eyesight was indeed good, but it had its limits. He wasn't like Tang San, who cultivated some eye skill like Purple Demon Eyes, which could even achieve perspective vision.

The spectator stands were already nearly a hundred meters away from the Spirit Arena. Now that smoke was rising from the stage, obstructing the view, it truly ruined Zeng Yi's mood for watching the match.

It was nearly impossible to see the fight on the Spirit Arena, and this smoke also had the effect of obstructing the sensing of spirit power. Zeng Yi had no idea what was happening at that moment.

Speaking the truth, Zeng Yi really wanted to create a strong wind here and disperse the smoke on the stage. However, doing so would probably disrupt the progress of the match, so he dropped the idea.

Boredly watching the smoke on the Spirit Arena and listening to the sound of combat without any visual display, Zeng Yi was feeling sleepy.

He had initially thought it would be an intense and exciting match. Perhaps for the spirit masters on the stage, it was a thrilling battle. However, for the audience outside the arena, it was truly uninteresting.

After more than ten minutes, the mist that permeated the Spirit Arena finally dissipated, revealing the figures of the fourteen spirit masters.

Members of both teams had varying degrees of injuries on their bodies.

However, among the Shrek Academy team, Tang San suffered the most severe injuries. Even his external spirit bone, the Eight Spider Lance, was shattered.

However, relying on his astonishing performance, Tang San managed to delay the fusion time of Hu Liena and Xie Yue's Martial Spirit fusion skill.

Due to the use of the Martial Spirit fusion skill, Hu Liena and Xie Yue's spirit power consumption was enormous, their faces already pale. However, compared to Tang San, they still had the strength to continue fighting.

It seemed that Tang San was in a state of exhaustion. However, they underestimated Tang San, the protagonist, and the child chosen by fate.

In the end, Tang San unexpectedly used his unique method of the Tang Sect. He turned the fragments of his shattered Eight Spider Lance into hidden weapons and controlled them to attack the members of the Martial Spirit Hall Team.

This skill was almost on par with Zeng Yi's Sword Art in Zeng Yi's opinion.

However, the Martial Spirit Hall Team members were careless and ended up being scratched by the fragments of Tang San's Eight Spider Lance.

Seeing this, Zeng Yi knew that the Martial Spirit Hall Team had lost.

Because Tang San's Eight Spider Lance possessed an extremely powerful toxicity that only Tang San could neutralize.

Even Zeng Yi had to be extremely careful against Tang San and avoid the slightest contact to avoid falling for any of Tang San's tricks. Now it seemed that the members of the Martial Spirit Hall Team were still too young.

Finally, Bibi Dong had to announce their surrender. The champion of this Spirit Master Competition was claimed by the Shrek Academy Team.

Seeing this, Zeng Yi realized that the development of the situation was still peaceful. He thought that the events that had occurred in the original story would not happen, but fate forcibly turned the timeline back.

Zeng Yi didn't know how Xiao Wu managed to drop the Yearning Heartbroken Red from her embrace.

And at that moment, Xiao Wu suddenly felt an oppressive force as if coming from the abyss, pressing down on her body. Her body became motionless, and even her spirit felt as though it was about to break.

It's over!

Xiao Wu's face turned pale in an instant, and a flash of extreme fear and resentment flickered in her eyes.
