Cao Zheng was looking at the two items like they were already his .

Both prizes were extremely well suited for him and his cultivation as if the emperor had prepared them just for him .

Li Mengli wasn’t looking at the prizes . She turned around and, when she saw Ye Mo staring at the prizes, she shook her head .

Even if you want the prizes that badly, I can’t let you get them, Li Ming thought to herself I’d rather leave you with nothing if it would save your life .

Bang!

At that moment, Cao Zhengchun descended from the sky like a bolt of lightning . Four scrolls appeared in his hand .

“Each of you, draw one scroll to decide on the order of battle,” He ordered . “There are four scrolls here, two with a painting on them and two empty ones . The contestants with matching scrolls will face each other in the semifinals . ”

The four nodded and had no objections . Even if Li Mengli had to face Cao Zheng, there was nothing she could do about it .

The four randomly drew their scrolls . When Ye Mo opened his scroll, he saw that both he and the princess had drawn the same scrolls .

He cursed inwardly to be paired with her .

The day before, Li Mengli had tried to get Ye Mo to surrender, to save him . Ye Mo had wrongly blamed her yesterday, and now he felt guilty .

That left Cao Zheng to face Zhao Huan .

“The drawing is now complete,” Cao Zhengchun said . “The first match, between Ye Mo and Li Mengli, will begin . Contestants, enter the ring . ”

At his words, Li Mengli unsheathed her sword and walked into the ring, expression solemn .

Ye Mo took his Sky Blood Spear off his back as well .

Immediately, everyone focused on Ye Mo’s weapon . Just yesterday, Ye Mo didn’t have a weapon .

“What weapon is that? Is that a Spirit Weapon? But I can’t feel any energy from it . It looks like an ordinary weapon . ”

“Maybe there’s something special about that weapon?”

“What’s that weapon Ye Mo is holding?” Elder Wutian of the Qingyn League asked when he saw the weapon in Ye Mo’s hand . “Didn’t I give him the Windchasing Sunslayer Spear yesterday? Why’s he using an ordinary weapon instead?”

“Looks like he decided to use that weapon,” Yun Tianxie smiled . The weapon still couldn’t unleash its true power for now, but when its weapon spirit was awakened, its might would shock everyone .

“Princess, I would like to apologize for yesterday,” Ye Mo said .

“Apologize?” The princess raised an eyebrow . “Since you already know the truth, I won’t bother saying much more . Just give up . ”

“I still can’t give up,” Ye Mo said . “You can’t stop me, you don’t have the strength to, anyway . ”

“Haha, Ye Mo, do you really think you’re undefeatable?” Li Mengli gripped onto her sword and said, “Since you know I’m the sister of the emperor, Princess Mengli, you should also know that I have plenty of trump cards on me . Though I am only in early-stage True Energy Realm, I can still defeat you . I said I’d stop your advance here, you will not pass . ” Li Mengli shouted and erupted with power . Her aura crashed out like a thundering wave . A wide and boundless ocean appeared behind her, with towering waves sweeping to the sky . She seemed to have activated some sort of secret technique .

“Ye Mo, let me show you the martial technique I learned from the inheritance of the Sea Serpent King . Sea Serpent True Body, destroyer of all!” she shouted, and an energy serpent appeared behind her, formed with the Sea Power . The sea serpent raised its head out the water, causing the waves around it to go berserk . The moment it appeared, its dark blue pupils locked onto Ye Mo . Its dark blue scales flared as it opened its jaws wide and roared, about to swallow everything in its path .

“Ye Mo, this sea serpent king is the Sea Serpent King that took control of my body then,” Li Mengli said, a trace of helplessness in her voice, combined with an iron will . With every word she uttered, the sea obeyed . “I’ve tamed him, now . I don’t want to summon him, but I’ll do what I must to defeat you . ”

The huge Sea Serpent King charged out of the sea and transformed into a massive wave that crashed down on Ye Mo .

Ye Mo immediately felt the pressure bearing down upon him . It seemed unstoppable like the true Sea Serpent King had when he appeared . When it was alive, the Sea Serpent King was at the Spirit Devour Realm . Regular warriors wouldn’t be able to stop it .

The suppression pushed Ye Mo backward, step by step .

This was Li Mengli’s first attack . Even if it wasn’t her strongest martial technique, it would be close . It was powerful enough to help Li Mengli push Ye Mo into a retreat, even though she was just in early-stage True Energy Realm .

When the onlookers saw Li Mengli’s powerful martial technique, they were shocked at her power .

“Hmph!” Ye Mo snorted and, with a howl, he unfurled his wings and soared into the sky, trying to dodge the Sea Serpent King’s attack .

But Ye Mo hadn’t expected that when the Sea Serpent King flew out of the sea, the sea had filled the entire field . If not for the energy barrier around the ring, even the viewers would be drowned by Li Mengli’s attack .

Under the influence of the sea, Ye Mo was losing control over his Dragon Power .

“Good . Very strong . Alas, still not my match,” Ye Mo roared and wrapped his Bright Dragon Power around his Sky Blood Spear . He decided to face the attack head-on . He stabbed out, his spear attack amplified four times . The sea covering the field was split in two .

After splitting the sea, Ye Mo walked forward and repeatedly swept his spear towards the Sea Power . He unleashed all 8,000 streams of his Bright Dragon Power, filling the air with the roars of dragons .

And thus, a man battled a serpent, a spectacular scene .

Against the large sea serpent, Ye Mo was fearless . At first, they were equally matched . But the more the battled, the stronger Ye Mo seemed to become, he was able to hit the sea serpent’s weak points several times .

“Die!” Finally, with a final stab to the sea serpent’s head, it vanished with a miserable whine .

With her marital technique destroyed, Li Mengli was forced to retreat several steps, her face turning pale .

She hadn’t expected Ye Mo to be this strong .

“You are indeed worthy of being my man . But do you really think you can defeat me?” Li Mengli looked at Ye Mo and wiped the blood off her lip .

“Li Mengli, give up,” Ye Mo said . “Even if you can unleash an even stronger martial technique, you still aren’t my match . I don’t want to hurt you . ”

“Give up? If I give up, you’ll enter the finals . And, after entering the finals, regardless of the result, you’ll end up dead . I’ll never give up!” Li Mengli declared . She withdrew all the Sea Power, preparing to use her own strength this time, the Spirit Supreme that the emperor had infused into her body .
