When Wang Jinkun heard Mo Nan's words, he was suddenly startled, but he couldn't do anything because he couldn't control his body.

"Hmph, you want to defeat me."

Even though Wang Jinkun was terrified, being controlled made it apparent that his limitations resulted in Li Feng overpowering him completely; he understood that the body could be even stronger.

Perhaps the opponent only wanted to use him as a pawn to kill Li Feng.

After getting rid of Li Feng, what reason would the opponent have to control him?

Wang Jinkun comforted himself this way.

For now, getting rid of Li Feng was the priority.

Wang Jinkun stopped resisting the force controlling him. His body, now used like a puppet, became more agile once he stopped resisting.

Upon noticing Li Feng's flaw, Wang Jinkun punched directly through the air, and Li Feng was a split second too slow in blocking.

He was immediately hit by the punch and flew backwards.

Li Feng's feet plowed into the ground as he retreated, while Wang Jinkun showed a sinister grin, taking advantage of the situation.

"Die for me!"

Wang Jinkun charged forward, pressing his advantage.

A moment of life and death.

Li Feng, who was leaning forward, suddenly lifted his head, and the spiritual power within his Divine Acupoint was transformed into a sharp blade aimed at Wang Jinkun's mind.

Spiritual Shock.

This attack was formless and colorless, impossible to block unless the opponent had a strong Sea of Consciousness to resist it.

Caught off guard by Li Feng's sudden move, Wang Jinkun couldn't defend himself. After all, superpower users in Yan Country were as rare as phoenix feathers, and Wang Jinkun clearly wasn't one.

Wang Jinkun's mind was hit with a buzzing shock, nearly knocking him unconscious.

However, his body wasn't too disrupted and delivered a punch to Li Feng's arms, sending him flying.

Li Feng had underestimated the situation.

He should have realized that the opponent wasn't controlling Wang Jinkun through his brain, but rather through the secondary nervous system in his spine.

Otherwise, Wang Jinkun's body wouldn't be out of control, while his facial expressions remained unaffected.

Below the stage, Mo Nan observed as Li Feng fell completely on the back foot, and Wang Jinkun relentlessly advanced towards him, lifting his foot to stomp on Li Feng.

Hesitating over whether to intervene.

At that moment.

Li Feng overexerted his spiritual power to release another Spiritual Shock, his own head buzzing slightly, so he bit his tongue to stay focused.

Raising his eyes to look at Wang Jinkun, he noticed a momentary stiffness in his opponent's body after the impact.

It worked.

Evidently, the real target was the ghost spider on Wang Jinkun's back.

Seizing the momentary opportunity, Li Feng sprang to his feet with a rolling flip, maneuvering himself behind Wang Jinkun.

The ghost spider on Wang Jinkun's back let out a maddening roar at Li Feng, who responded with a cold snort, his energy as sharp as a knife.

Skillfully using his surgical knife abilities, he sliced through the network of the ghost spider's body before reaching out to grab it and tear it away.

The ghost spider emitted a series of shrieks, and Li Feng delivered a Qi Gang with a raised hand, severing the spider's tendrils and throwing it off the stage.

Deprived of the ghost spider's attachment, Wang Jinkun immediately lost control, his own consciousness had already been dulled by Li Feng, and without the spider's manipulation, he collapsed straight to the ground.

The ghost spider, freed from Wang Jinkun, didn't die immediately and attempted to flee like a black blob of flesh, but before it could escape, it was blocked by Mo Nan.

In an instant, invisible Sword Qi swept through like a shredder.

The ghost spider perished hideously.

In an empty room at the Grand Martial Arts Arena, Xingyun spat out a mouthful of blood. As the ghost spider's Contractor, its death inflicted backlash upon him.

Especially with that Spiritual Shock from Li Feng earlier, which was aimed at the ghost spider. And since he controlled the spider through spiritual manipulation...

Li Feng's attack also directly impacted him.

"Damn it, how could Li Feng possess the Power of Thought?"

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Xingyun looked at the defeated Wang Jinkun without a hint of reluctance, then swiftly left.

Li Feng managed a hard-fought victory, securing a spot in the top eight.

Meanwhile, the organizer of the Martial Arts Tournament had entered an emergency state, especially considering representatives from both the Mortal World and the Ancient Martial World were participating.

"What happened? You almost killed Li Feng!"

When Xingyun returned to the Lin siblings' side, he was rebuked by the young man.

Gritting his teeth, Xingyun replied, "Young master, it turns out Li Feng had a hidden trump card. At the crucial moment, he used a Mind Shock, catching me completely off guard, giving him the chance to turn the tables."

"Mind Shock, isn't that the ability of a Superpower User?"

Surprised, Lin Wan'er exclaimed lightly, knowing that Xingyun wouldn't lie about such a thing. "Tsk tsk, who would've thought Li Feng was hiding this kind of trump card."

The young man wore a sullen face, but it quickly returned to normal. He looked at the victorious Li Feng on stage and the stretcher-borne Wang Jinkun.

"Hmph, you got lucky this time, but it won't be long until I take your life."

The young man spoke coldly.

"You should know how to clean up after yourself and leave no loose ends."

"Yes, young master."

Xingyun bowed his head respectfully.

The Lin siblings strode away, while Xingyun raised his head, a cold gleam in his eyes.

The morning's matches concluded.

After rejoining Wang Jin'er and the others, Li Feng prepared to leave the Grand Martial Arts Arena.

"Senior brother, what exactly happened? What was that disgusting thing that fell off Wang Jinkun?"

Unable to hold back, Li Wenlong asked Li Feng.

Before Li Feng could respond, someone called his name.

Looking sideways, Li Feng spotted Mo Nan, the contestant who had advised him from the side of the stage earlier. Mo Nan walked straight up to him.

"Li Feng, could we talk privately?"

Mo Nan asked.

Li Feng looked at Mo Nan. The person had warned him before, and clearly knew some inside information. At the moment, Li Feng also felt confused.

He nodded immediately.

"Just a moment."

Turning to Wang Jin'er and the others, Li Feng said, "You all head back to the hotel and wait for me; I have some business to handle."

Wang Jin'er glanced at Mo Nan.

"Will it be okay?"

Li Feng assured her, "Don't worry, you all head back to the hotel. I'll be back soon."

Wang Jin'er could only nod.

Li Feng quickly turned and walked toward Mo Nan, who led him away. Once they had distanced themselves from others,

Mo Nan finally spoke, "Do you know someone wants to kill you?"

Li Feng wasn't expecting Mo Nan to be so direct. He replied, "I have some enmity with Wang Jinkun, but I didn't expect the guy to be so petty and vengeful."

"Did you recognize the thing on him?"

Mo Nan looked at Li Feng, who deflected his question with another question, and said, "Hmm, the Ghost Spider King, a kind of restricted Forbidden Pill."

"Once ingested, the Gu King within will attach to the host, enhancing various bodily metrics and achieving symbiosis. As for the complications, you've noticed, the host can be controlled like a puppet, and someone behind Wang Jinkun wants to kill you, and that person is not insignificant."
