Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

However, on the other side, dark spatial cracks suddenly appeared, devouring the light elements that were assailing it. Jin Anguo watched his opponent with a gleaming gaze, and those spatial cracks around his body seemed to come out of nowhere. Yet from the fluctuations of the light elements, one could tell just how turbulent the energy around Jin Anguo's body was.

"Still want to fight?" Light Dragon King Xu Anyu didn't choose to give up his attack at this moment but instead shouted sternly at Jin Anguo.

Jin Anguo's eyes flickered slightly, and the spatial cracks around him contracted a bit, "I concede."

The Holy Light receded. The spatial cracks around Jin Anguo's body also disappeared with it.

The fight ended like this without really fighting?

High above, the Undying Great Demon Emperor declared: "Xu Anyu of the Light Dragon Clan wins, earning two points."

What was that? The audience was immediately in an uproar. A clash between such strong contenders has ended just like this? Jin Anguo, as the Lord of Sky-Breaking City, actually chose to concede directly? Isn't that too cowardly?

Only truly powerful beings understood that the contest between the two had sparked from the very beginning.

The effectiveness of Xu Anyu's light element spirits had exceeded Jin Anguo's expectation. Of course, Jin Anguo had his trump card as well. But this was only the first match of the preliminaries. If both sides were to reveal their trump cards, even if they won against the opponent, it would be very disadvantageous for the following matches. More importantly, Jin Anguo was not certain he could win. This wasn't a battle that had to be won for the struggle for the throne. Instead of potentially suffering heavy losses from a hard fight with Xu Anyu and affecting later matches, it was better to choose a strategic defeat.

But the fact that he was willing to concede meant that Xu Anyu undoubtedly had a greater chance of winning.

There was also a deeper reason, which lay in the fact that they both belonged to the Monster Races. For the overall national interest, eliminating the Spirit Monsters during the round-robin stage was the common interest of the Tianyu Empire. Therefore, they did not choose to engage in a hard fight at this point. There are three spots for advancing after all.

Ning Chenen frowned; it certainly hoped Jin Anguo could win, as that was its uncle. If Jin Anguo had won against Xu Anyu, the latter matches would be very advantageous. But Jin Anguo's loss in this match meant that he would have to win even more in the following matches to ensure advancement, and couldn't afford to lose again.

Xu Anyu is indeed strong; this is also where Ning Chenen felt a strong sense of vigilance in its heart. The instantaneous burst and surge from the light element spirit could be felt even through a protective cover. Such a level of light element enhancement had helped Xu Anyu's cultivation base ascend even higher among the peaks. As the leading figure of the dragons of Crystal City, its strength was unquestionable, and with the addition of the light element spirit, it could now be said to have almost stepped into the Emperor Level. This was also why it stood fearless even against the Dark Demon Great Demon Emperor.

The Dragon Clan is truly strong this time; excluding the heir to the Dark Demon Great Demon Emperor, two male contestants from the Dragon Clan had advanced to the next round, and adding that heir, it's as if three major Dragon Clans have advanced to the next round! With this, Xu Anyu's victory over Jin Anguo has, for a time, brought the Dragon Clan's reputation as the most powerful Dragon Clan to its peak.

Tang San calculated briefly; his opponent in the next round should be Jin Anguo, while he will encounter Light Dragon King Xu Anyu only in the final round of the round-robin tournaments.

"First group of female contestants, please enter the stage." The voice of the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox sounded again.

The female contestants' next round was about to begin.

Tang San's pupils shrank almost instantaneously, because he felt the familiar spatial fluctuation.

Indeed, in the next instant, a flash of silver light in the arena, and Pretty Girl had already charmingly appeared on the battlefield. As the initial incentive for this martial arts contest, she appeared for her first match after having a bye in the elimination round.

Among all nine female contestants, including Pretty Girl, there were three from the Monster Races and six from the Spirit Monster contestants. Therefore, just like the probability, her first-round opponent turned out to be a female Great Spirit King from the Spirit Monster race.

Pretty Girl's opponent was also extremely beautiful. Having cultivated into spirits and taken on human form, it was natural for them to have high expectations for their appearance, making themselves even more attractive.

This contestant, upon her entrance, radiated a luminous and flowing light. The peculiar texture naturally invoked a sense of fondness. Around her, as if there were a halo of rainbows flickering, her whole body emitted a strange luster that made her appearance seem somewhat ethereal.

The Pretty Girl was surrounded by a halo of silver light, while this contestant bathed resplendently in a rainbow aura. In terms of attractiveness, she was much more appealing than the likes of Xu Anyu and Jin Anguo.

The audience's cheering erupted instantaneously at this moment. Tang San had not paid much attention to the female contestants' matches before, and thus was unaware. The matches of female contestants actually received more attention from the general audience. After all, nearly all participants were beauties! Especially on the side of the Spirit Monsters, each Great Demon King who had cultivated into a spirit was exceptionally ethereal and beautiful.

At this moment, the contestant facing Pretty Girl was indeed a Liuli Spirit King from Liuli City, a strong figure from the Liuli clan. She was the inheritor of the lineage of the Thousand Changes Luminous Celestial Spirit Emperor.

A seeded contestant! Yes, this female contestant from the Liuli clan was indeed a seeded contestant.

However, when Tang San saw that Pretty Girl was facing such an opponent, an unconscious smile couldn't help but spread across his face.

This match, not too difficult.

The referee was still the Undying Great Demon Emperor, who appeared to not recognize Pretty Girl at all, descending from the sky and landing in the center between them, "Prepare yourselves, both sides."

Pretty Girl and the Liuli Spirit King bowed to him simultaneously, then their auras began to transform.

Around Pretty Girl, the splendid silver shadows instantly began to take on an odd appearance, as silent streaks of silver light spread out, turning into layers of light doors. The power of space elements suddenly intensified.

On the other side, the Liuli Spirit King's surrounding burst into a kaleidoscope of rainbow colors, transforming into a bizarre and colorful world.

Liuli is known for its multiplicity of colors, and the innate abilities of the Liuli spirits themselves are also ever-changing; what they command is also the power of elements. However, the difference is that these elements are primarily based on the Five elements attribute. With earth element as the core, it evolves into wood, fire, metal, water. The cyclical changes of the Five elements attribute create a variety of generative and destructive transformations. The fighting strength of the Liuli spirits may not be the most formidable among the Spirit Monsters, but it is certainly the most varied. Moreover, they are particularly adept at area attacks.

At this time, as Pretty Girl and the Liuli Spirit King each released their innate abilities, the stage was indeed filled with a dazzling array of colors.

Ning Chenen asked Tang San, "Who do you fancy in this match?"

Tang San smiled and replied, "Of course I fancy my future wife."

Ning Chenen laughed heartily and said, "Future wife, not bad. You really did come here to compete for a marriage. Alright, if I happen to win the throne, I won't need the spot in this marriage competition; I'll leave her for you, how's that?"

Tang San glanced at him and said, "Love is something you have to fight for yourself. I'll move her with my sincerity."

Ning Chenen laughed and responded, "Not to mention anything else, but you sure have a thick skin. However, I don't fancy your future wife in this match. This Liuli Spirit King, Nan Xuewei, is the biological daughter of the current Liuli Celestial Spirit Emperor. She has been a Great Spirit King for many years. She has inherited the mantle of the Liuli Celestial Spirit Emperor, and her manipulation of the Power of Five Elements has reached the state of unity of the five. Amongst the female seeded contestants, she is a formidable presence. Though Pretty Girl is the Lord of a City and the Peacock Demon Clan Chief, the Peacock Demon Clan has no Emperor, and her time as a Great Demon King has been too brief. In terms of strength, she's definitely not on par with Nan Xuewei."

Tang San said, "But, there's elemental compatibility!"

Ning Chenen was startled and repeated Tang San's words, "Elemental compatibility?"

"Yes, elemental compatibility."
