The Unrequited Love Valley disciple who had boasted and bragged about himself grinned and cackled when he saw the female disciple who had lost just before their arrival and was busy treating herself go to the stage. He thought that he got lucky. He shrugged and went to the stage frivolously and in a very relaxed manner. He drew a masterpiece that had three colors flowing around it and created an arc in a very flashy manner.

“I will say this beforehand, even though you are a woman, I will not show any mercy.” His voice was calm, as if he could send her to her feet with just one slash.

“Enough with the nonsense!” Zi'er stood her ground with her axe, and when she heard his words, she quirked her eyebrows. “Hmph, since you said that Mantuo Villa disciples cannot compare to Unrequited Love Valley, I will give you a chance to prove yourself. Don't be like a sissy who can only run his mouth.”

The Unrequited Love Valley male disciple originally wanted to enjoy the fight, but it was clear that he did not expect that the woman would attack him with her words right when they arrived on the stage. His face instantly became darker, and he snorted coldly, “You're pretty good with your mouth, I wonder how good your skills are!”

“You'd best live up to your appearance and not end up being completely useless!”

Zi'er was someone who would appear unassuming when she kept quiet, but when she decided to attack, she was astonishing. Her mocking tone and the words that caused others to gasp in amazement shocked the man for a long time. It was clear that he did not expect that his opponent would be so fierce.

As the people watching the fight laughed, his face turned pale before turning red, and he roared in enraged embarrassment. Then, he struck out with his sword.

“It's over.” When Happy saw the Unrequited Love Valley disciple's starting stance, he knew that he had already lost his calm. Attacking in such a reckless way at full strength allowed his opponent to see his true strength, and he was filled with weaknesses.

Things progressed just as he expected!

Boom!

Zi'er took a step forward, and at the moment the sword shadows came charging forward, she grabbed her axe hilt, and the greataxe that was as tall as a person was lifted from the ground. A whistling, cold gust of wind soared above her head, and with the momentum to cut down a mountain, she crushed the sparks from her opponent's sword. They shattered into countless pieces.

The horrifying greataxe hit the person's body with a force that could destroy everything with ease.

Body fortifications were incredibly frail at that moment.

Even if they managed to negate some of the damage, the terrifying damage of the axe strike still sent the Unrequited Love Valley disciple flying into the distance. Blood spilled in the air, and he flew out of the stage before he landed on the ground. He did not manage to get up even after a long time had passed.

Zi'er calmly snorted. “Turns out you don't live up to your appearance and ARE completely useless!”

Then, while the disciples from the five sects looked at each other in shock, she walked down the stage with her axe.

“That girl's good.”

“Yeah, she's real fierce!”

Happy's expression remained the same, but he nodded slowly.

The others did not know what martial arts Zi'er used, but he did. Among normal martial arts in the system of martial arts, the ones with the greatest damage were bow techniques, and those that could compare to them were hammer and axe techniques, both of which could be used with axes. Their damage was so high that they did not lose to high-tier Moksha Realm martial arts!

Emperor's Hammer Technique was a supreme-grade martial art manual that cost cities, but could barely be found in the market in his previous life. Its damage was so great that it lived up to its name.

Besides, Zi'er clearly did not have a normal masterpiece, while the boy from Unrequited Love Valley had chosen to fight her head-on once he was provoked by her, which was just marching to his own death.

However, it had to be said that once Zi'er attacked, it caused the disciples around them to look Mantuo Villa straight in the face. They also realized that the Murong Clan disciples who had gone down the stage were extraordinary. If they could defeat this sort of person, their strength was probably even greater.

The disciples from all five sects had arrived. Madam Wang, the Murong Clan Lady, Master Nangong, the master of Unrequited Love Valley, and Huang Rong of Peach Blossom Island, who revealed her identity earlier, rearranged their forces and had the disciples of the five sects fight against each other.

Those who lost three matches would lose their right to compete. Once everyone fought for ten rounds, those who had not lost their right to compete would gain the right to challenge others. Everyone had ten chances to challenge others and fight against the ten people who had the most points. If they won one round, they would get two points, but they would still lose their right to compete if they lost three rounds.

In the end, the ten who had the most points would become the disciples who would head to the martial arts tournament at Hero's Mountain Villa and receive a title.

When the best disciples of the five sects fought against each other, it was only natural that the onlookers got to watch something amazing!

Intense fighting could be seen everywhere.

For a period of time, the shadows of weapons could be seen everywhere within the area! All sorts of saber glares and sword forces could be seen intersecting with each other while axe howls rose into the air. It officially drew the curtains for the most intense fight for the competition.

Happy continued to use his sword.

The person sent by Peach Blossom Island was Huang Island, and it made Happy slightly wary. Huang Rong was the sect master of Beggar's Sect. There was a possibility that she might have come because of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm.

If he revealed himself to be in possession of Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm in this competition, Happy did not know what sort of accidents might occur. Hence, he insisted on using sword techniques to win his battles.

Even though his Flying Dragon Sword Technique had yet to reach Grandmaster Realm, once he came to understand sword will, he had an easy time dealing with fights of this level!

Even when he ran into really troublesome opponents, he only used Ten True Dragon Styles, and it was not something Huang Rong would be able to identify.

Besides, even though the opponents from the five forces of power were very outstanding, it was very hard for them to force Happy to use Ten True Dragon Styles. He could end each fight with just two or three slashes, regardless of who his opponent was, and that included Zi'er!

The attack power of Emperor's Hammer Technique might be extraordinary, and it had unparallelled defense, but all it managed to do was make Happy display his attack speed and movement speed for the first time in front of the people from the five sects.

He did not give Zi'er the chance to fight against him head-on. He avoided such a tactic and attacked her from the side. After three slashes, he executed a profound kick, and with the smallest amount of force, he won against the herculean power contained within Emperor's Hammer Technique. He just kicked Zi'er off the stage.

He fought twenty matches, and he gained twenty points to become the person with the highest points in the tournament!

Eleventh Crane and Young Fallen Rain did not make Happy disappointed. They became the third and second people who did not need to continue competing after gaining respectively fourteen and fifteen victories.

The challenges began!

However, even though the trio stood on the stage for a long time, no one came to bother them.

Instead, Distinguished Dragon and Heaven were challenged repeatedly. They lost twice, but they immediately fought their way back to the top ten, and they were ranked at the ninth and tenth places.

Once the five spokespeople gathered together to talk to each other, they came to a conclusion of what titles they should give them.

“Flashing Sword Distinguished Dragon! Your sword moves like a flash, catching people off guard.”

“Unyielding Blade Heaven! When you wield your dual swords, you fight to the end of your life.”

“Emperor's Axe Young Zi!” Mantuo Villa's Young Zi had gained a place in the end among the top ten with her domineering Emperor's Hammer Technique, and she gained the mighty name of Emperor's Axe.

The seventh place belonged to an Unrequited Love Valley disciple called Purpose. His Unrequited Love Saber Technique was given to him personally by the valley master of Unrequited Love Valley, and his it contained a dismal presence that could disturb a person's will, which made their morale plummet and got them caught up in their own negative emotions. He gained the title Love and Emotions Ending Swordsman.

The sixth was Nangong Ying of Nangong Clan, an old acquaintance of Happy's. However, she seemed to have already expected it. The distance between them had widened due to the passage of time, and they were practically strangers at that moment, but she now had respect in her eyes when she looked at him.

She never came to speak to him, but her Nangong Ying's sword technique was indeed extraordinary. Her Nine Abyss Swordplay, which belonged to the Nangong Clan, looked pretty solid, and she was the one who caused Distinguished Dragon and Heaven to suffer their first losses in the tournament one after another.

The fifth and fourth places took everyone by slight surprise.

One of them was Purple Robes, who had been a nameless nobody before that. Every time, he would win by a slight advantage, but he was the type who became stronger the stronger his opponent was, and even when he faced up against Emperor's Axe, he never retreated. He used Happy's strategy and easily won.

The title he gained was also very interesting—Purple Robes Swordsman.

The fourth was Lu Jing, who was another successor of Peach Blossom Island. His Seventy-two Flute Techniques gave people the feeling that they were facing off an immense forest. He did not amaze the people too much, and neither was his presence very shocking, but Distinguished Dragon and Heaven simply could not win against him, so he gained the title Eastern Heretic Junior.

The third was Eleventh Crane, and he gained the title of Descendant of Divine Arrow!

Young Fallen Rain was Needles in Sleeves!

Nine among the ten gained titles, but Happy did not receive any evaluation from the five.
