Chapter 695: Coexistence of Pros and Cons, Escalated Battles

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

These twenty days had passed without much excitement. Of course, this only applied to Qin Wushuang. After all, with all those sealed spiritual beasts standing on guard, those vicious beasts had recognized the situation and did not get tangled with unnecessary troubles.

Even the vicious spiritual beasts on the island bullied the weak and had fear for the strong.

To the martial artists without many trump cards, the sixth island was penned with hot and bitter tears. At this stage, another eleven were disqualified from the twenty-five.

In other words, when the previous two levels had passed, sixty people were disqualified directly from the seventy-four people. Only fourteen candidates had entered the third level!

This rate of disqualification was truly astonishing.

Since there were still fourteen people left, of course the top ten could not be determined. Therefore, the sixty people that were disqualified from the previous rounds were definitely characters accompanying the crown prince to read. They would have no opportunity with those rewards.

Qin Yunran felt gratified that the Qin Clan had become the only powerhouse with both players still in the competition!

In other words, in the sixth island, for the other three powerhouses that had remained as a whole, all had candidates getting disqualified. Now, among the fourteen spots, only Qin Wushuang and Qin Taichong had come from the same sect!

To the Qin clan, it would definitely be an advantageous news!

It was because per the rules, when arriving at the seventh island, candidates from the same sect could form an alliance!

The people of the Qin Clan on the outside had cheered. Especially Qin Hao and Qin Hongyan were in great delight. They had a feeling of exaltation upon fulfillment as if they had turned the tide to be the master.

However, Qin Zhining was not as happy as they had imagined. He frowned slightly and revealed a somewhat grave expression as he looked at that final fourteen people list.

“Zhining, what do you see?” Qin Yunran asked with a smile.

“I want to see whether other powerhouses had two of their own remaining,” Qin Zhining said honestly.

“Of course not, there is only our Qin clan! Ha ha!” Qin Hao said happily and he said this with a prideful tone. He had completely forgotten the old history when he went with Qin Shaohong to cause trouble with Qin Wushuang.

At this moment, regardless of Qin Hao or Qin Hongyan, they were incredibly proud. They were proud for Qin Wushuang and Qin Taichong. Especially when they were looked at by people with admiring eyes, that form of belongingness and pride of the sect had made them feel incredibly comfortable. Their entire body seemed to have gotten lighter as if they were experiencing the joy by placing themselves in the high clouds.

“Ah, I rather hoped that other powerhouses had two people remaining.” Qin Zhining gave a slight sigh and shook his head.

“Oh?” Qin Yunran looked at Qin Zhining with a faint smile. Although Qin Yunran enjoyed excitement and liked Qin Taichong’s straightforward personality more, regarding Qin Zhining who loved to ponder, he was also interested.

“Zhining, tell us, why would you say that?”

Qin Zhining said, “Among the fourteen spots, only Senior Brother Taichong and Junior Brother Wushuang come from the same sect. This has made them stand out too much. The other powerhouses would unconsciously view the Qin Clan as the imaginary enemy. This way, Senior Brother Taichong and Junior Brother Wushuang will easily become the target for other candidates. It’s the taller trees in the woods that get their tops blown off. In such an ordeal, if those candidates feel the Qin Clan is their greatest threat, of course they would use the Qin clan as their target. Everyone would form a mutual understanding and target Senior and Junior Brother unconsciously. This way, even if those people had not formed an alliance, they would form a mutual understanding to deal with them. They will be in a more difficult situation.”

As soon as he said these words, instantly Qin Hao and Qin Hongyan had become stupefied. They were all intelligent people and not idiots. Upon hearing the analysis of Qin Zhining, they could not but help to nod. Clearly, they felt it made great sense.

“Zhining is right, those people will surely do this. A big hit, a hot hit, they will die of heat…” Qin Hao whispered.

“Pa pa pa! You with the crow’s beak, what are you saying!” Qin Hongyan said unhappily, “I still choose to believe Senior and Junior Brother. Even if those people were to form a mutual understanding, they could not form one easily or else they would be violating the rules. As long as they use good tactics and seize the upper hand, it’s not impossible for them to break through this. Second Chief, wouldn’t you say so?”

Qin Yunran laughed. “Let’s wait and see.”

Qin Hao and Qin Hongyan all looked at Qin Yunran curiously. “Second Chief, how come you are not the least bit concerned?”

Qin Yunran laughed. “It’s already a great accomplishment when both of them have entered the trial islands for the third level. Even if they were to encounter any accidents, I will not blame them. If they are truly defeated under that situation said by Zhining, we would still be honorable in defeat, won’t we?”

“Yes! Let’s see if they would dare to be so shameless!” Qin Hao said angrily.

Qin Zhining gave a long sigh. “I only hope that Senior Brother and Junior Brother Wushuang can clearly see this point. If they are prepared mentally, there is much to do since the size of the island is so big. Two people would always be much more dependable than one!”

On the transportation platform of the sixth island, fourteen pairs of eyes were vigilant as they sized each other. Clearly, at this point, they were all each other’s core competitors.

When they arrive to the next island, everything would be different from before. They would be facing brutal killings and fighting close-handed combat. The competition between each other would become more vicious and they would be committing all manner of crimes.

Therefore, as they examined each other, they were more vigilant through their gazes and less friendly.

Qin Wushuang remained calm and collected. His eyelids dangled as if he had entered a meditative state. He also did not talk to Qin Taichong. If he were to talk to Qin Taichong now, it would attract attention all of a sudden.

Most importantly, this transportation formation would send them to random places. In the beginning, they would not get dropped to the same place. Therefore, talking about anything now would be useless.

When the transportation platform was activated, with a flash of light, fourteen figures had transformed into fourteen meteoric lights to shoot onto the island that was ten-thousand miles away. The size of this island would not lose to that Ten Thousand Flower Valley.

As soon as Qin Wushuang had dropped onto the island, that form of casualness and calmness was swept away from his entire person. On the contrary, he had become like a leopard as a form of wild desire filled his eyes.

He knew that it was time to get real.

When arriving at the seventh island, certainly it would not work for a wise man to look after his own hide. It’s because if you do not offend someone, they would come to offend you. No opponents would watch you pass safely. Letting any opponent pass would be irresponsible to themselves!

Certainly, the communication jade plate would not be allowed here. Or else, it would be an act to encourage the forming of cliques. Therefore, Qin Wushuang could not use the communication jade plate to contact Qin Taichong.

However, when the communication jade plate could not be used, it did not mean Qin Wushuang was out of options to contact Qin Taichong. On the contrary, he had the Observant Finger Jade Plate, that was blessed by heaven.

When he activated the jade plate, Qin Wushuang realized that Qin Taichong was at least three-thousand miles away from him. However, Qin Wushuang would not feel worried.

As long as nothing happens before he regroups with Qin Taichong, he would have the confidence to join hands with Brother Taichong to pass this seventh island.

The limited time for the island in the third level was ten days.

Qin Wushuang had entered a high concentration state and observed the movements from the jade plate. He initiated the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings to fly towards the direction of Qin Taichong.

Although the defenses on the island were powerful, it did not limit flying. As Qin Wushuang urged the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings, his speed was still considerably magnificent.

However, Qin Wushuang had not exert all his efforts. Instead, he must stand on guard against all sneak attacks from different parties. Under such circumstances, Qin Wushuang was not an idiot. He had also thought of the things Qin Zhining had thought. Therefore, his priority was to regroup with Brother Qin Taichong as soon as possible.

As soon as the two of them regrouped, regardless of the toughest situation, Qin Wushuang would have the confidence to deal with it. His greatest trump card was the Observant Finger Jade Plate and the sealed spiritual beasts!

However for these trump cards, Qin Wushuang had not planned to use them all at once. Breaking through the seventh island was not Qin Wushuang’s final goal.

Clearly, it would not be wise to use up all the trump cards.

…

Nearby an arduous canyon, a devilish man dressed in green from head to toe concealed himself amongst the lush greens. He looked downwards with a bewitching look.

“Humph, that forthright guy in gray is Qin Taichong of the Qin Clan! The Qin clan has two people entering the seventh island, this is not good! Let me, Xiao Lù serve everyone for free!”

This bewitching guy was called Xiao Lù and had come from a powerhouse from the Heavenly Fire Southern Border. He specialized at concealing himself and was an elite warrior of the half beast human clan.

This Xiao Lù had excelled the most at using the terrain and his own transformation skills to ambush his target. Now, he had locked his opponent as Qin Taichong.

Clearly, he had also realized that the two people from the Qin Clan would become his greatest stumbling blocks while moving towards the championship. Therefore, he must create a fair environment. At least, he wanted to make sure the Qin Clan only had one person remaining. In that case, he would feel more reassured.

Or else, the advantage of having more people would always be the greatest misfortune not visible from the surface!

Currently, Qin Taichong was walking in the mountain valley. He did not have any specialized skills in terms of body motion. Therefore, he did not think ahead of using any concealing methods.

Qin Taichong’s strongest trait was to fight head-on for he possessed high resistance and combat power. He would not abandon his advantage and to learn other people’s strength.

However, now he was also thinking that it would be better if he could regroup with Junior Brother Wushuang. Therefore, he did not conceal his presence for clearly, he wanted to attract Qin Wushuang to come. At the same time, he was also searching with his spiritual perception for he hoped to sense Qin Wushuang’s presence.

Suddenly, the root of Qin Taichong’s ear had moved. Like an arrow, he had stepped backwards all of a sudden. As if stepping onto seven stars backwards, he glided out.

He waved a giant sword to the sky and protected his chest. With a flash of green light, a surge of powerful defense barrier blocked a ball of green air stream.

When that ball of green air had clashed with his sword, it had instantly dispersed to the sky.

“Who’s there?” Qin Taichong shouted and lay the giant sword across the sky with awe-inspiring manner. For the time, he appeared as a celestial spirit descending from the sky. His gaze was as profound as lightning as he looked around.

It was quiet everywhere. Suddenly, there came a burst of slight movement from beneath his feet. Countless long vine-like tentacles had extended from the grass in four directions. It kept wrapping towards his feet and kept locking him into the space he was standing.

“Bewitched things!” Qin Taichong gave a violent shout and waved the giant sword madly. He kept sweeping out sword attacks and a dozen of long vines had fractured into pieces to fill the sky.
