“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.
