Chapter 658: The Pitiful Yu Mo

Third battle, Imperial Mausoleum chose the silver sword man ranked twelfth, and won.

Then Duan Wudao chose Qing Mengxin, who voluntarily conceded this battle.

When it was Jun Moxi's turn to fight, his gaze once again fell upon Yu Mo, with a faint smile curling at the corners of his mouth.

Jun Moxi's smile made Yu Mo's face stiffen with gloom, looking very unpleasant. Jun Moxi was challenging him again.

"This time, I will definitely win." Yu Mo stepped forward with icy eyes. The battle seven days ago still gnawed at him. He, Yu Mo, had actually lost to Jun Moxi of the Dragon Mountain Empire. Today, he would reclaim his honor.

"Boom!"

A terrifying vortex swept through. Without any superfluous movements or words, the moment Jun Moxi chose him, Yu Mo's body shot forward, transforming into a fearsome whirlwind that surged toward Jun Moxi with extreme ferocity.

"Heaven and Earth have righteous qi!" Jun Moxi uttered a single phrase. A layer of terrifying golden aura erupted from his body, rolling and surging. A vast righteous energy seemed to pierce the very clouds.

Righteous, upright!

"Kill!"

Yu Mo roared in anger, his palm striking toward Jun Moxi with devastating force. Jun Moxi didn't even blink, his eyes fixed on Yu Mo. The terrifying righteous qi was like an invisible force, impenetrable by any demonic or evil energy.

Yu Mo's powerful, overbearing palm strike only made the righteous qi rage even more violently, surging wildly toward the heavens.

"Hmm?" Yu Mo's expression stiffened. How was this possible? He couldn't even break through this righteous qi. As a cultivator at the peak of the Eighth Layer of Profound Martial Realm, how could he be so humiliated?

His pupils shifted to black and white, and a Bagua pattern faintly appeared. In Yu Mo's hand, a small Bagua diagram materialized, frantically spinning and tearing at the righteous qi around Jun Moxi.

"Boom, boom..." The terrifying righteous qi surged higher and higher, bathing Jun Moxi's entire body in a sacred aura of righteousness. The spinning Bagua pattern still couldn't shake the righteous qi.

"Jun Moxi is even more terrifying than he was seven days ago."

The crowd's hearts trembled slightly as they stared at Jun Moxi's figure. Righteous qi, a body full of righteousness, majestic as a mountain.

"Do you think that just because you've stepped into the realm, your strength has increased, you can defeat me?" Jun Moxi's voice rang out. Yu Mo's body stiffened. At that moment, Jun Moxi's eyes were so brilliant and bright, as if for the first time, they were radiating such dazzling light.

"Don't forget, I stepped into the Fifth Realm. Even before I entered the realm, you were already inferior to me. Now, you are still inferior to me."

As Jun Moxi's words fell, he took a step forward. Instantly, the terrifying righteous qi swept across heaven and earth, leaving only this vast righteousness, this pure uprightness.

"Hmm?" The crowd's gazes froze. Such a terrifying aura. Jun Moxi's presence was so overwhelming. The golden righteous qi seemed ready to devour the world, transforming into a tornado that raged through the void.

Righteous qi. This body of righteous qi was powerful to this extent. The crowd even felt insignificant and humble before this righteous qi.

Not only the crowd felt this way, but Yu Mo also experienced the same sensation, as if his power was being suppressed. Righteous qi suppressed all demonic and evil forces.

Confidence. Yu Mo's confidence was gradually crumbling. Staring at Jun Moxi, bathed in righteous qi, he even felt a sense of shame.

"You call yourself a genius?"

A faint, mocking voice rang out, piercing Yu Mo's ears like needles, making his eyes instantly bloodshot. But at that moment, the terrifying righteous qi seemed to burst forth in an instant, endless and boundless, all surging toward Yu Mo.

"Boom!"

The power exploded in an instant. The righteous qi slammed directly into Yu Mo's body. A terrible gale swept through, sending Yu Mo flying. This battle, Jun Moxi had won!

"Jun Moxi won?"

The crowd's eyes were frozen, as if they hadn't yet snapped back to reality. What had just happened? The battle had lasted only moments, and Jun Moxi had used that terrifying righteous qi to suppress Yu Mo and blast him away. Was the gap between them really that large?

Just as Jun Moxi had said, they thought to themselves, was Yu Mo really one of the eight great geniuses of the four empires?

Was he too weak, or was Jun Moxi too strong?

Even Yu Mo himself hadn't come to his senses. He let out a muffled groan. Even now, he could still feel that vast force pressing down on him, like an unshakable shadow.

"Next." Jun Moxi turned calmly and walked back to his position, leaving Yu Mo staring blankly.

"No, the battle isn't over. I want to fight again." Yu Mo's face suddenly turned extremely sinister as he glared at Jun Moxi.

"Enough." A furious roar rolled through, shaking Yu Mo's mind. Yu Mo looked up at the cold pupils in the void, and his heart trembled slightly.

"I already advised you long ago. On the path of martial arts, the heart must be as sharp as a blade, unbreakable." That person scolded him. Yu Mo nodded silently and then withdrew.

Jun Moxi had also secured one victory.

Sixth battle, Blood Fiend chose Yun Feiyang. To Lin Feng's surprise, Yun Feiyang directly conceded.

The seventh battle should have been Yu Mo's turn, but since Jun Moxi had already chosen him, it was skipped. Seven Emotions Sword Ling Xiao faced Withered Demon Eye Ku Mu. Both were among the eight great geniuses.

This time, Seven Emotions Sword and Ku Mu held nothing back. Ling Xiao's seven swords all left their sheaths, the sword intent containing will, the will of emotion.

Ku Mu possessed the Withered Demon Eye. When his eyes opened, heaven and earth seemed to turn desolate. But in the end, Ling Xiao's sword was sharper. Ling Xiao defeated Ku Mu, securing a victory.

With fifteen people, an odd number, when it was Six Desires Qin Yu Xiaoxiao's turn, everyone had already fought once. She also chose the power-type cultivator ranked fourteenth and defeated him.

In the second round, Lin Feng once again took the initiative. This time, he chose the ice soul woman. His sword dao will erupted, shattering the ice soul. The sword could not be frozen. Lin Feng won another match.

Tang Youyou chose the silver sword user and also won, securing two victories.

In this round, Imperial Mausoleum made Qing Mengxin concede. Duan Wudao chose to fight Ku Mu. The crowd expected a fierce battle, but Duan Wudao's power was too domineering. He ignored Ku Mu's desolate aura, ignored the aging of time's wheel, and crushed everything with a single punch, defeating Ku Mu.

Jun Moxi this time defeated Six Desires Qin Yu Xiaoxiao. Blood Fiend chose Ling Xiao for his second battle. Blood Fiend's surging blood energy clashed with Ling Xiao's sharp sword aura in a fierce struggle. After a grueling fight, the victor was Blood Fiend.

Blood Fiend maintained a record of two wins.

Next, it was Yu Mo's turn to choose. His gaze directly fell on Yun Feiyang. In this round, only Yun Feiyang had yet to fight.

"Too bad I can't torment you once." Yu Mo's eyes were cold as he stared at Yun Feiyang. Now, not only had Lin Feng humiliated him, but Jun Moxi had also made him look foolish. Now, he would humiliate Yun Feiyang. Too bad Yun Feiyang would probably do the same as last round, directly conceding and refusing to fight.

"Why are you still standing there?"

Yun Feiyang took a step forward, directly walking out. He looked at Yu Mo and said calmly, making Yu Mo's eyes freeze.

Yun Feiyang was accepting the challenge?

Yun Feiyang had conceded against Blood Fiend and had also conceded against Ku Mu. But when facing him, he accepted the challenge. What did this mean?

Seeming to finally understand, Yu Mo stepped forward with a gloomy expression. Humiliation. He had wanted to humiliate Yun Feiyang, but instead felt humiliated himself, simply because Yun Feiyang hadn't conceded.

"You're not conceding?" Yu Mo said darkly. But Yun Feiyang ignored him, directly stepping forward. Instantly, a rumbling sound echoed. Heaven and earth had momentum, an overwhelming force pressing down on him, making Yu Mo's expression stiffen. Yun Feiyang not only didn't concede, but he immediately attacked!

"Seeking death!"

This time, Yu Mo was completely enraged. The terrifying Bagua pattern instantly bloomed without any hesitation. This Bagua pattern was like blood, instantly enveloping Yun Feiyang within it!
