THE SUPREME MARTIAL KING SHOCKING ALL REALMS

Chapter 924: Chapter 921: The Sniper Attack Begins!_1

At this point, naturally, no one would choose to give up. Even the weaker branches from the Eastern division still hold onto this mentality. They are unwilling to choose to give up, even if the hope is slim, they still want to give it their all.

The first competition began with the older martial artists.

Bai Luosheng presided above and announced the rules of the arena.

“Do you see these thirty-two competition stages? The time limit for the contest is one stick of incense. After one stick of incense burns down, only one person can remain on each of the thirty-two stages. The remaining thirty-two will be able to exchange knowledge with our main family’s representatives.” Bai Luosheng slowly explained.

A large number of Bai family masters appeared, already preparing the thirty-two competition stages, fully extending their reach and showing off the grandiose display of the Bai family’s prowess.

Bai Luosheng continued, “Now, we will start with the competition among the older martial artists. Light the incense, let the timing begin!”

The incense was lit, and time started to be counted, signifying the beginning of the arena competition.

The martial artists didn’t dare to hesitate. Many of them, impatient, rushed onto the arena, eager to secure a place for themselves.

As one stepped onto the stage, so did the second, and in a blink of an eye, numerous martial artists were already fighting, shedding blood in the fierce competition.

Bai Yishan and the other two martial artists from the Eastern branch were not in a hurry to take action. They chose to observe and wait. After observing for a while, Bai Yishan felt there wasn’t much opportunity and said, “The two of you, let’s join the fight.”

The two Earth Martial Realm members from the Eastern branch had no confidence but still forced themselves to step forward.

“Yun Fei, do you think our branch leader and the two elders have any chance of winning?” Bai Haochen asked curiously.

Yang Chen didn’t answer, not because he didn’t want to speak, but because the result would undoubtedly be disheartening. After all, Bai Yishan and the others had a talent gap with the other martial artists, and the probability of securing a place was too small.

Even if they managed to secure a place, what then? There were countless people watching from the sidelines, and they would soon be defeated and removed from the arena. Out of the thirty-two who remain, only those whose personal strength ranks in the top twenty could be considered to hold a steady position.

As Yang Chen expected, the two elders from the Eastern branch were quickly defeated and returned in disgrace.

Bai Yishan engaged in fierce battles with several martial artists on the stage and endured for quite some time. Unfortunately, in the end, his true energy was completely depleted, and he couldn’t hold on any longer. He was also defeated amid the cruel competition.

“Alas!” The people of the Eastern branch witnessed their older martial artists defeated and couldn’t help but shift their gazes towards Yang Chen and the others.

“Bai Yun Fei, Bai Hao Chen, and Fei Ying, it’s up to you. You must make us proud, attract the attention of the main family, and gain their respect.”

“Yes, it’s up to you.”

Bai Haochen and Bai Feiying’s eyes were determined as they nodded in agreement, intending to go all out.

One-stick-of-incense time was neither long nor short.

As time went on, the fights became more intense, showing no signs of slowing down. On the contrary, they were even more fierce than at the beginning. Many people saved their strength for the final stretch, which resulted in unexpected success. Four or five Earth Martial Realm Ninth Layer experts who had secured a stable position on their stages were defeated, and their positions on the stages were snatched away.

Likewise, some other positions on the stages were no longer secure and were replaced by others.

And so, an hour went by.

Out of the thirty-two martial artists, three unquestionably belonged to the Demon Slayer branch, and the remaining ones were from the strong branches of the western area. These martial artists held their positions on the stages and, even in the worst cases, were at the Earth Martial Realm peak.

“The Demon Slayer branch is truly formidable!”

“The Demon Slayer branch has three martial artists, all of them at the Half-Step Heavenly Martial Realm level. They directly swept across the stages and secured three positions!”

“With the Demon Slayer branch being so formidable, it seems that they have a chance to compete against the main family this year.”

The atmosphere around the Demon Slayer branch became increasingly dominant, not for any other reason but because their three older martial artists had achieved very prominent results.

Seeing the arrogance of the Demon Slayer branch, Bai Zang the Great Emperor was displeased, “Humph, watching the Demon Slayer branch behave so arrogantly makes me angry. I really want to go down and defeat them!”

“Hehe, Brother Bai Zang, no need to be anxious, wait for the competition among the younger martial artists!” Bai Wei replied with a grin, exuding confidence as if everything was under control.

Bai Zang didn’t understand what Bai Wei had done but still waited patiently.

With the older martial artists’ competition over, it was naturally the younger martial artists’ turn.

Bai Luosheng also felt unhappy seeing the Demon Slayer branch’s high-spirited appearance but never forgot his responsibilities.

He said solemnly, “Alright, the thirty-two martial artists who have passed the elimination round, stand to one side. Now, young martial artists under the age of forty, please step forward. From this point on, these are your arenas. The rules are the same as what I mentioned earlier. There are thirty-two arenas, and at the end, there can only be thirty-two people standing. That is when you’ll have passed the elimination round. Light the incense, let the timing begin!”

Someone ignited the incense, signaling the start of the timing!

These young martial artists were full of vim and vigor, completely different from the older martial artists. The older martial artists had hesitated to step onto the stage, but these young martial artists rushed up without a second thought.

“Ah, rush up!”

The young martial artists roared and stormed the thirty-two stages. In an instant, the arenas exploded with action, and the fights intensified far more than those of the older martial artists.

Influenced by the environment, Bai Haochen and Bai Feiying couldn’t wait to rush up to the stage, finding a suitable spot to fight their opponents.

Seeing this, Yang Chen felt a bit helpless, as he originally wanted to wait a bit longer before entering the fray. Looking at the situation now, he could only abandon that idea.

“Well, since this elimination contest’s target is the genius martial artists of the Demon Slayer branch, there’s no difference in entering early or late. Now, where is that genius from the Demon Slayer branch…?” Yang Chen spread his spiritual senses around, looking and observing.

Searching wasn’t difficult, and Yang Chen quickly found his target.

“It’s him, Bai Hecheng.” Yang Chen locked onto his target, “Since that’s the case, I’ll start with you!”

With that thought, Yang Chen directly leaped out and stood on one of the arenas.

The stage he arrived at was the one where Bai Hecheng was positioned.

Bai Hecheng, being a genius from the Demon Slayer branch, was considered a deterrent. When Bai Hecheng stepped onto the stage, it was meant to intimidate, so other stages were filled with ongoing battles, but Bai Hecheng’s stage remained empty.

That was until now when Yang Chen stood on the stage!
