----

In that instant, the entire Drill Ground was dead silent.

The scene seemed to have stopped at that moment forever. Jacky suddenly revealed his sixth Soul Ring and charged at Fang Xuan hysterically, but in the end, he was cut in half by Fang Xuan's backhand.

Just like that, a Soul Emperor died. His body was split in two and blood splattered all over the arena. Fang Xuan stood there calmly, his black hair stained with blood. His blade was stabbed into the ground, and his entire body was radiating killing intent. He looked like a god of death who had just returned from the underworld, causing many people to tremble in fear.

"Jacky was killed by Fang Xuan …"

This sudden turn of events happened so quickly that many people didn't even realize what was going on.

"What's going on? Wasn't Jacky a Soul King? How did he suddenly become a six-ringed Soul Emperor?"

"And he looks completely different from before. What's going on with him?"

Everyone was confused and started to discuss among themselves, not knowing what had happened to Jacky.

But there was one thing that they were certain of. That was … Fang Xuan had killed a Soul Emperor.

"Heavens, that was a Soul Emperor above the rank of sixty. How did Fang Xuan kill him with a single strike?"

"Unbelievable. Just how strong is Fang Xuan now?"

"Hey hey hey, those who spread rumors about Fang Xuan being a coward, get out here and commit suicide to atone for your sins …"

After Fang Xuan's victory, the conspirators who had cursed Fang Xuan for being a coward had all shut their mouths. This was like a slap to their faces, shattering all the rumors and slanders.

Fang Xuan was still here.

The entire audience cheered excitedly for Fang Xuan's victory. Applause and cheers came from all directions, drowning Fang Xuan, who was in the center of the arena …

"Why?"

At that moment, the people from Balak Academy stood up angrily to denounce Fang Xuan.

"This Fang Xuan is vicious and merciless. He killed our Balak Academy's genius, Jacky. Why are so many people applauding him? He's a murderer"

Everyone from Balak Academy was furious that they had lost a powerful fighter. They all stood up to accuse Fang Xuan of being a murderer and asked the judges to punish him severely.

The moment those words were spoken, the cheers from the crowd died down. Another uproar could be heard from the crowd as the situation became even more difficult to predict.

"Murderer? Haha, I'm a murderer. If no one offends me, I won't offend them. If no one offends me, I'll kill them"

Fang Xuan laughed as he stared coldly at the protestors from Balak Academy. "Jacky was the one who ambushed me," he said, "If I didn't kill him, would I wait to be killed? What a joke"

Balak Academy's accusation was laughable. The judge had already announced Fang Xuan's victory, but Jacky had suddenly jumped up and ambushed Fang Xuan from behind. It was obvious that he wanted to kill Fang Xuan. What a vicious person!

Everyone present had witnessed this scene. Many people could testify for Fang Xuan.

"Barker Academy still has the nerve to bite back. It was Jacky who was vicious and merciless. He tried to kill Fang Xuan first. He deserved to die"

"Trash Barker shut up. Don't you find it embarrassing?"

"Haha, what a laughable academy …"

"Someone from Balak Academy attempted to kill Fang Xuan. We suggest that Balak Academy be disqualified from the competition"

In an instant, curses and accusations came from all over the place. Balak Academy was bombarded with a barrage of insults, cursing back their accusations against Fang Xuan.

Faced with the anger of the crowd, the people from Balak Academy had ashen faces. They could only shut their mouths and slunk back to their seats, not daring to say anything else.

"Everyone, please be quiet. Listen to me"

At this moment, the platinum bishop of the Martial Spirit Hall, Salas, suddenly stood up. He had a serious expression on his face and assumed a fair and just posture. He began to analyze seriously.

"That's right. Jacky ambushing Fang Xuan is a fact, and Fang Xuan killing someone in the Soul Master competition is also a fact. Both of them have undoubtedly violated the rules. Now, Jacky is dead and has received the punishment he deserved. There's nothing more to say. However, Fang Xuan doesn't seem to have received the punishment he deserved …"

Relying on his identity as the bishop of the Spirit Hall, coupled with his impartial and orderly analysis, many people gradually stopped arguing and were convinced.

Fang Xuan didn't say a word. He only stared coldly at Salas, who was upholding justice in the VIP seats. He saw through the latter's sanctimonious nature with a single glance.

This bishop of the Spirit Hall had caused trouble for him time and time again. He didn't expect him to use this as an excuse to make a fuss today.

Fang Xuan's eyes were cold as he looked at the righteous Salas. His eyes flickered with a cold light!

"Everyone should have seen that Fang Xuan killed someone in the Soul Master Tournament. He has violated the rules of the tournament. I suggest that the judges immediately strip Fang Xuan of his right to participate" Salas said in a deep voice.

Ruthless!

Ruthless enough!

He wants to strip Fang Xuan of his right to participate in the tournament with just a few words. This Salas is very scheming.

Fang Xuan furrowed his brows and thought about how to deal with this old fox.

"Strip Fang Xuan of his right to participate in the tournament?"

Everyone was stunned. They looked at each other and saw the deep shock in each other's eyes.

Everyone could see that with Fang Xuan's strength, he would be one of the candidates to become the champion of the Soul Master Tournament in the future. Perhaps the Heaven Dou Academy could suppress the Spirit Hall and the Star Luo Empire in this year's Soul Master Tournament and become the champion.

Salas wanted to strip Fang Xuan of his right to participate in the tournament. Wasn't this punishment a little too much? After all, Jacky was the one who attacked first, and Fang Xuan was only passively defending himself …

"Hmph …"

The Emperor snorted coldly. His face had already darkened. His eyes, which were as deep as the starry sky, were surging with fury. Many people could see that the emperor was in a very bad mood.

The Emperor glanced coldly at Salas and said in a deep voice, "Bishop Salas is so 'fair and just'. Do you want to strip a member of our Emperor Team with just a few words? Why don't you just ban the entire Emperor Team from participating in the tournament?"

"Haha, I wouldn't dare."

Salas put on a fake smile and said, "Your Majesty has always been fair and just. You can't be biased just because Fang Xuan is your son, right?"

The Emperor said coldly, "I'm the Emperor of the empire. All the citizens of the empire are my children. I won't be biased towards anyone guilty, and I won't wrongly blame anyone innocent."

One was the bishop of the Spirit Hall, and the other was the emperor of the empire. The two of them were at loggerheads, and many people were watching from below.

Just as the two of them were arguing, Ning Fengzhi suddenly stood up and stopped them.

"Your Majesty, Bishop Salas, and all the spectators present, I have a different opinion on whether or not to punish Fang Xuan"

Ning Fengzhi smiled faintly. He looked very elegant as he faced everyone and said calmly, "We're only focused on arguing about Jacky's death, but we've neglected a very important detail"

"Why did Jacky suddenly have an additional soul ring, and why did his appearance change so much? Why did he suddenly become so old?"

Ning Fengzhi's words woke everyone up from their stupor, and each of his words hit the nail on the head.

Hearing Ning Fengzhi's question, the Balak Academy team that was clamoring for revenge for Jacky suddenly became mute. Everyone's expressions were very ugly, and they couldn't wait to find a hole to crawl into.

"That's right. Why did Jacky's strength suddenly increase so much and become a six-ringed Soul Emperor? How is it possible for a twenty-year-old Soul Emperor to become a Soul Emperor?" Someone raised his doubts.

"And that fellow suddenly became so much older…" A middle-aged man said doubtfully.

"Sect Master Ning, please clear our doubts"

Everyone looked at Ning Fengzhi and wanted him to clear up their doubts.

"It's just as everyone suspected. How is it possible for a twenty-year-old Soul Emperor to become a twenty-year-old Soul Emperor? Not only does everyone not believe it, but I also don't believe it"

Ning Fengzhi's eyes were sharp as he pointed at Jacky's corpse on the stage and said, "That fellow isn't Jacky at all. He's the famous 'Poison Dragon' Easter, a Rank 69 Soul Emperor"

"What! Poison Dragon Easter, a Rank 69 Soul Emperor!"

Hearing Ning Fengzhi's words reveal Jacky's true identity, many people were shocked. They didn't expect Jacky to be a veteran expert in disguise.

"When I was young, I traveled extensively and once met this Poison Dragon Easter. So, when he revealed his original appearance, I saw through his true identity at a glance"

Ning Fengzhi continued to explain, "I'm sure everyone must be wondering how Easter, who is in his fifties or sixties, managed to disguise himself as Jacky, who is in his twenties. It's very simple. He took a drug that could change his appearance. As far as I know, although this drug can make him look younger and younger, it can also suppress his strength."

"Easter used this medicine to sneak into the Soul Master Tournament and fight with a group of youngsters for the championship. So, Balak Academy seriously violated the rules from the beginning of this tournament! And Fang Xuan and the others are the real victims. So, I suggest that Fang Xuan is not guilty, and Balak Academy… is permanently banned from the tournament"

All the mysteries were solved, and the truth was finally revealed. Balak Academy's despicable actions, inviting a veteran expert to sneak into their team, seriously violated the rules of the Soul Master Tournament. Everyone despised them and strongly criticized them! In a moment, curses rose from all directions. Balak Academy was once again at the heart of the storm, being scolded by tens of thousands of people. They were almost drowned in the spittle of the spectators. Everyone had ugly expressions on their faces, and it could be said that they were battered and exhausted.

After this incident, Balak Academy, along with the entire Balak Kingdom's reputation, became a shameless villain in everyone's eyes, and their infamy spread far and wide!

In the end, the Heaven Dou Division's judging committee, represented by the Emperor, unanimously decided, "Balak Academy is permanently banned from the tournament!"

During the advancement round, the Emperor publicly announced that Balak Academy had seriously violated the rules of the Soul Master Tournament and was permanently banned from the tournament. From now on, all academies from Balak Academy will have no right to participate in the Soul Master Tournament.

It could be said that Balak Academy had tried to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice used to lure it.

"This Balak Academy, they've sent people to assassinate me time and time again!"

Fang Xuan's heart turned cold. He swore that he would destroy this country in the future.

Looking at Balak Academy preparing to flee with their tails between their legs, Fang Xuan's lips curled into a dangerous smile. He suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Wait a minute! This tournament isn't over yet. Don't be in such a hurry to leave"

"We've already been banned from the tournament. What's there to fight for?" Balak Academy's people had ugly expressions on their faces.

"Being banned from the tournament is a matter for the future. But for this tournament, we'll have to fight to the end…"

Fang Xuan revealed a devilish smile. His cold gaze caused Balak Academy's people to shiver and feel their hair stand on end.

"Fang Xuan, one against seven, one against seven!"

At the same time, the surrounding spectators followed suit, shouting for one against seven. They wouldn't allow Balak Academy to withdraw from the tournament at the last minute, and strongly demanded that they finish all seven matches!

From the beginning of the advancement round until now, there hadn't been a proud record of one against seven. Today was the day of the birth of a miracle. Everyone was looking forward to Fang Xuan's one-against-seven.

Due to the strong pressure from all walks of life, Barak Academy wasn't able to successfully escape. They had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue the tournament, under the gaze of tens of thousands of people.

After that, Fang Xuan swept through Balak Academy with an unstoppable force, beating the remaining six members of their team into a sorry state, completing the magnificent feat of defeating seven people in one go! As for Balak Academy, they were forever nailed to the pillar of shame in the Soul Master Tournament. They were cursed and criticized by people from all walks of life.

At this point, the tenth round of the advancement round pitted Heaven Dou Academy against Balak Academy. The Heaven Dou Academy had achieved the magnificent feat of ten consecutive victories, dominating the rankings! And Fang Xuan had eliminated Barak Academy, completing the first one against seven in the advancement round. It was also incomparably dazzling.

The match between Heaven Dou Academy and Barak Academy was the last match of the tenth round of the advancement round. When the match ended, the sun had already set in the west. The fiery red sunset dyed the light Grey horizon in the distance, and

The atmosphere in the arena grew tense as Fang Xuan confronted Bishop Salas and challenged the authority of the Spirit Hall. The spectators watched in anticipation, wondering how this audacious confrontation would unfold.

Salas, while initially taken aback, soon regained his composure. He looked at Fang Xuan with a stern expression. "Young man, you seem to have a lot of courage to question the Spirit Hall. Do you know the consequences of your words?"

Fang Xuan didn't back down. He met Salas's gaze with determination. "I am fully aware of the consequences, but justice must prevail. Balak Academy's actions were disgraceful, and as Jacky's guarantor, you should take responsibility for vouching for his false identity. Your actions have tarnished the integrity of the tournament."

The crowd fell into a hushed silence, anxiously awaiting Salas's response. This public confrontation between a young contestant and a representative of the Spirit Hall was unprecedented.

Salas sighed deeply, realizing the gravity of the situation. "Very well, young man. You dare to speak your mind, and I respect that. I will take responsibility for my words and actions. The Spirit Hall will conduct a thorough investigation into the matter."

Fang Xuan nodded, satisfied with Salas's response. "Thank you, Bishop Salas. Let the truth prevail."

With that, Fang Xuan turned and left, leaving behind a crowd buzzing with discussions and opinions. The confrontation had brought even more attention to the tournament, and the spectators were eager to see how the situation would develop.

As the fiery sunset cast its last rays over the arena, the day's intense battles came to an end, and the exhausted spectators began to disperse. The tournament had reached a pivotal moment, and the fate of many teams hung in the balance.

The saga of Fang Xuan and the Emperor Team had become legendary in the advancement round, and their popularity had soared. The tournament was far from over, and the excitement and drama were sure to continue in the days to come.
