“Why are you so stubborn?” Ye Mo asked with a sigh .

“I don’t want to see my man dying before my eyes,” Li Mengli said . “Now that my brother is in secluded cultivation, the Cao Clan is in power . This competition’s been under his control all along . The title of champion could never have been yours . Don’t you see that?”

“I do,” Ye Mo said . “But I’m still going to win this competition . Thank you for your good intentions, but no thanks . ”

“You idiot . I don’t want you to remember my good intentions . I want you to stay alive,” Li Mengli said before abruptly charging at Ye Mo . Wielding her golden sword, she slashed down at his head .

The attack looked completely ordinary, but Ye Mo knew it wasn’t as simple as it looked .

“Sky Blood Cycle!” Almost instantly, Ye Mo summoned his greatest strength and focused all his power on the Sky Blood Spear . The spear started shining brightly, and layers of Blood Qi formed around it, the spear pierced the air and met the incoming golden sword .

But when the sword and the spear collided, Ye Mo saw a smile on Li Mengli’s face .

“King’s Qi!”

Hum–

A tyrannical force traveled through the Sky Blood Spear into Ye Mo’s body . His meridians shook, even his Energy Center was being invaded . A huge shockwave had intruded upon his body .

His entire body went limp, causing him to let go of the spear in his hand and collapse onto the ground .

The crowd was in shock . What happened?

Had Ye Mo been defeated with a single move? But if Li Mengli’s attack was that powerful, it should have sent Ye Mo flying instead of making him collapse where he stood .

“That princess is very powerful . She was able to knock Ye Mo down with one move . That qi she used is too powerful . ” Several elders in the Heaven’s Strength Realm started discussing the attack . After all, this was the league war that would only be held every four years . It was an extremely important event .

Powerhouses in the Heaven’s Strength Realm could utilize Heaven’s Strength Qi, so they knew more about Qi than other warriors . They could tell Ye Mo had been attacked by Li Mengli’s qi .

“The princess isn’t too strong, the King’s Qi,” said a different elder . “To nurture the princess, the emperor used everything he has . Since she’s young, her bones and veins were purified, her Mortal Gates strengthened, and he even sent a stream of King’s Qi into her body . Although the princess doesn’t have the physique of a king, she has the King’s Qi in her body . With the qi, she is enhanced by the power of faith, further amplifying her strength . ”

“Though Ye Mo is strong, he still can’t compare to the power of a king . I don’t think he’ll survive this attack,” said another elder .

When the officials of the kingdom saw Ye Mo collapse, they appeared prideful . With the princess victorious here and Cao Zheng’s certain victory over Zhao Huan later, the top two places of the competition would be theirs . This brought glory to the people from the kingdom .

On the other hand, the members of the Qingyun League were distressed when they saw it . Ye Mo, who had always performed spectacularly, had been defeated .

“Ye Mo, you’re very strong, and your energy is very powerful as well . But my attack contained the power of King’s Qi . My brother’s power,” Li Mengli said . Then she looked to the side and yelled, “Lord Cao, is this considered a defeat?”

“If he’s still down after 10 seconds, he will be considered defeated . ”

Everyone focused on Ye Mo, waiting for a miracle to happen .

“Princess, if you’d taken the opportunity to strike me while I was down, I might have lost here,” Ye Mo said before the countdown even started . The King’s Qi wrapped around his body has miraculously vanished . “Now you have no chance to win . ”

Although the King’s Qi was powerful, it wasn’t too powerful to avoid being devoured by the Rising Dragon Pillar . The Devour Power absorbed all of the King’s Qi, allowing Ye Mo to recover .

Seeing Ye Mo slowly standing up, Li Mengli was visibly shocked . She hadn’t expected her King’s Qi to be ineffective against Ye Mo .

The King’s Qi was inserted into her body by her brother . With it, she could easily smash an entire mountain to pieces . Even regular Heaven’s Gate Realm powerhouses wouldn’t be able to survive her King’s Qi . But it was completely ineffective against Ye Mo .

“What cultivation technique do you practice exactly, Ye Mo?” Li Mingli asked . “Or perhaps you have some treasure on you? How could you dissolve my King’s Qi?” That was her strongest attack . If even that wasn’t enough to defeat Ye Mo, she would not be able to win at all .

“That’s a secret,” Ye Mo said . “I can tell you that neither the King’s Qi nor Spirit Supreme will work on me . The only thing you can do is concede defeat and allow me to advance to the next round . ”

“You’re indeed worthy of being my man . But I don’t want the first man I approve of to die right after I found him . I will not concede!” Li Mengli said . She slashed at Ye Mo repeatedly with her golden sword, sending waves of King’s Qi crashing down on Ye Mo like a tsunami .

But Ye Mo was able to easily block every attack .

“Surrender, princess,” Ye Mo said as he swiped his spear at Li Mengli’s right shoulder .

Bang!

She was sent flying before crashing to the ground .

“Lord Cao, let’s announce the result of this match,” Ye Mo yelled .

“I haven’t been defeated yet!” Li Mengli stood up and yelled, her body wobbling . It was obvious she had already exhausted her energy .

Again and again, she fell . Again and again, she stood . The scene shocked the viewers, and impressed them .

Even Ye Mo couldn’t bear to strike her down .

After Li Mengli fell for the tenth time, she stood up again, covered in injuried . Her body was already drenched with blood .

“I will not allow you to advance! I can’t watch you die!” Li Mengli said weakly before she finally collapsed onto the ground .

Swish!

With a flash, Ye Mo appeared beside Li Mengli and held her in his arms . Gazing at the face filled with dust, he frowned .

“I’m sorry,” he said . “I have to do it . ”

Two grand elders stepped in to heal the princess .

The princess was then sent away from the Qingyun Martial Field while unconscious . Ye Mo had officially won the match .

“Qingyun League’s Ye Mo is the victor!” Cao Zhengchun’s voice rang out gloomily . It was obvious he hadn’t expected this result as well .

Immediately, a round of tumultuous applause filled the arena .

Now, Ye Mo only needed one more victory to become the champion of the league war, to inherit the title of Tianwu Kingdom’s number one genius .
