Chapter 486 Clean and neat

Chapter 486 Clean and efficient

Above the waterfall filled with black torrents, an extremely terrifying power began to be released in all directions, and within the mountains, a powerful force was constantly spreading.

"One against two, are these devilish scholars finally going to make their move?"

Seeing the tense scene, Xie Ming's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. He wasn't so worried about Ye Ru's talent, but rather whether these eccentric scholars had any backup plans.

If so, then Ye Ru would have a very difficult time defeating him.

Who do you think will win this time?

With his eyes slightly narrowed, Shi Tianze spoke slowly, a hint of seriousness appearing on his face.

"I don't know. Fighting two people at once was impossible for me, at least when I was a scholar."

Xie Ming shook his head, not daring to make a judgment easily, because Ye Ru's talent was higher than his, and the odds of winning against these two people should be fifty-fifty.

"This time it's a bit risky. Ye Ru has stopped moving forward in order to save those scholars, while some of the ghost scholars have already reached the halfway point. As long as one person reaches the top first, the countdown to closing the gate will begin. At that time, not to mention Ye Ru, even Kong Ling and the others will be out of the running for the championship."

Taking a deep breath, Mr. Kong shook his head and said in an unusually heavy tone.

Regardless of the circumstances, if the Ghost Scholar obtains a crown, they will spread the news widely among the demon race, which will severely damage the reputation of their human race.

"Hmph, you are very talented, but there are two of us and you are alone. I wonder how you plan to fight against us?"

A cold look appeared on Yan Jin's face as he spoke in a chilling voice. As his words fell, a wisp of black energy began to spread around him.

"Hehe, if we could obtain the Saintly Power within your body, our chances of becoming a Half-Saint would be much greater. So, are you going to hand over this Saintly Power directly, or wait for me to take action?"

With a raised eyebrow, a fiery glint appeared in Yan Ming's eyes.

With the power of this sacred ancient tree, their talents could at least double.

This temptation was something they simply couldn't resist.

"If you have the ability, you can come and try, but I'm afraid you won't live to come and take it."

His eyes narrowed slightly. Ye Ru's face gradually turned cold, and then he slowly raised his hand.

As he raised his hand, countless branches began to slowly extend in all directions, then danced wildly around Ye Ru, but all the branches rushed towards Yan Jin and Yan Ming.

"let's go."

Yan Ming's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. Then, he stomped his foot and shot towards Ye Ru like an arrow.

Seeing Yan Ming make a move, Yan Jin's hands also emitted a wisp of black energy, which was filled with a thick black demonic power. It transformed into sharp cones, attacking Ye Ru from both the front and the back.

Now that everyone knows they are Ghost Scholars, they no longer need to hide. After all, if they win this battle, even human scholars can't do anything to them.

But if they lose, it would probably mean utter ruin.

Seeing two people attacking him from the front and back, Ye Ru took a deep breath, and the power of the Sacred Ancient Tree exploded completely. A powerful shockwave, like a wave, spread outwards, instantly shattering the attacks of the two people.

Then, Yan Jin and Yan Ming were struck as if by lightning, and finally spat out a mouthful of blood. Their bodies, like kites with broken strings, crashed into two rocks.

This lightning-fast scene left both Yan Jin and Yan Ming with a look of shock, their hearts churning as if a storm was brewing within them.

They never imagined that Ye Ru's true talent would be so terrifying!

With just one move, he broke through their attack.

Not only Yanming and Yanjin, but even the people watching the match outside were completely stunned.

"How is this possible? With just one move, he defeated two scholars who had only achieved the rank of Xiucai. How could such power be so terrifying?"

A blank stare filled everyone's faces. After a long while, Xie Ming finally came to his senses, staring intently at the nonchalant Ye Ru. He gasped and muttered to himself.

"How could such an attack be so terrifying?"

A look of surprise appeared on Mr. Kong's face. Such skill was something that no one else could achieve.

But Ye Ru is now incredibly powerful.

"If the other party has that kind of strength, then Shi Yu could very well die at his hands."

Shi Tianze took a deep breath, a hint of resentment flashing in his eyes.

If one could defeat a scholar who had passed the imperial examinations with the skills of a Xiucai (a lower-level scholar), then Ye Ru in front of them would certainly be one.

"If it really is him, even if he is the champion of this competition, I will make him pay with his life."

A surge of resentment welled up in Shi Tianze's heart.

In the arena, Yan Ming and Yan Jin still had a look of disbelief in their eyes, and then they took a deep breath.

"You are no match for me. You'd better get out of our human territory and go back to your demon race. You can't afford to offend human scholars."

With a slightly cold look in his eyes, Ye Ru glanced at the two people lying on the ground, then left without looking back.

After Ye Ru left, Yan Ming and Yan Jin tried to stand up, but then a huge tree branch, like a giant python, slammed down on them.

boom!

The cave was destroyed, and the fate of Yan Ming and Yan Jin is unknown.

……

boom!

In another cave, Yan Feng and Kong Ling were locked in a fierce battle, each of their attacks a fatal blow.

However, although both of them used their strongest powers, they could not determine a winner.

"Is this all the humans are capable of?"

A mocking smile appeared on Yan Feng's lips as the black light in his hand slammed into Kong Ling's body.

puff!

The black light touched Kong Ling's body, causing her to vomit blood and stagger backward, eventually crashing into a rock.

"Looks like you're not up to the task."

Yan Feng slowly walked towards Kong Ling, whose face was also filled with extreme anger.

"The winner is king, the loser is an outlaw, so you might as well die."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Feng's palm came down and slapped Kong Ling.

However, at that moment, a tree branch shot out and blocked Yan Feng's palm.

At the same time, the force exploded, causing Yan Feng to stagger back dozens of steps. He then turned his head and shouted sharply:

"who!"
