It was none other than Dú Gū Yún.
He coughed violently, spitting out golden blood, its brilliant hue remarkable; each drop was like a golden bead.
"You… have won!"
Dú Gū Yún's demeanor was somewhat defeated, even he had not expected this outcome. His face remained incredibly handsome, his charisma daunting – although he was not a woman, he surpassed most women in beauty.
"You're not bad either, worthy to vie for supremacy with the world's heroes!"
Gu Chen didn't belittle his opponent by saying things like "You're nothing but so much puff." Even though he had an upper hand during the fight, it was indeed perilously dangerous. This descendant from the Guardian lineage was truly formidable, at least on par with the Ten Crown King and Banished Immortal. Despite being overly arrogant, he was deemed worthy of respect.
The principal reason he was able to win so decisively, other than his own strength, was his ability to suppress his opponent in the realm aspect.
