Chapter 1565

Elliott - Last proofread till i'm back from Rome.

“Hmph.” In the face of Wei Canglang, the wise Beihan Mingzhi did not show any respect for his competitor. Instead, he squinted his eyes and squeezed out a light snort from his nose… Furthermore, he didn’t try to conceal it in the slightest. It was enough for everyone to hear him clearly.

Wei Canglang’s brows furrowed but he did not say much. Releasing his profound aura, the surrounding black light surrounded him and turned into tens of thousands of black sharp blades.

Those who could enter the battlefield of the Battle of the Center Ruins were all powerful figures that could shake the Quiet Ruins Five Realms. Wei Canglang was no exception as he trained in an extremely overbearing demonic blade technique. A demonic blade that was one inch long could turn a mountain’s engulfed into black smoke.

In the face of his aura, Beihan Mingzhi was unmoving, and didn’t even have the face to accept the challenge.

He narrowed his eyes as he looked at Wei Canglang, and suddenly let out a cold laugh, letting out a low chant that only the other party could hear: "Wei Canglang, you have seen it too, the Southern Phoenix Imperial Family does not know how to appreciate favours, and seeks your own death. The day that I, the Northern Cold City’s Crown Prince, is the day that the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation is done for. As an honourable hero of a realm, to think you would unexpectedly work for the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation. Southern Phoenix’s Divine King, are they all just a bunch of stupid dogs!? "

“You!” Wei Canglang was furious. How noble was a 10th Level Divine King in a Middle Star Realm? He had been humiliated like this several times before.

He also knew the reason why the other party would do this. Anger rose in his heart at the same time, “You’re seeking… Death!”

“With just you?” The corners of Beihan Mingzhi’s mouth twitched, “Come, come, let me see just how powerful you are.”

As he spoke, he even folded his hands in front of his chest and said each word more ear-piercing than the last, “Even if they are of the same level, the competitor is the Southern Phoenix’s stupid dog Divine King.”

“Crack!” Wei Canglang almost bit his teeth into pieces. In his fury, he let out a low roar, and his expression and body simultaneously underwent a drastic change. The lacquered Black Demon blade that he had just condensed also froze in the air, following which he released an obvious and peculiar auras.

“Extreme Devil Sword!?” Cries of surprise rang out from the surroundings. The expressions of the South Phoenix martial artists all changed.

Ultimate Devil Sword, Wei Canglang’s strongest demon blade! Beihan Mingzhi’s arrogant words were suppressed to the extreme, and no one heard what they said. They were all shocked by why Wei Canglang suddenly became so angry and used his trump card the moment he started.

Right at this moment, Beihan Mingzhi, who had initially had a face full of disdain and was calm, who had just said that he would never take the initiative to attack, suddenly had a glint in his eyes. With a flash, he appeared in front of Wei Canglang like a ghost.

The formation of the Extreme Devil Sword required a few breaths of concentration and effort. Wei Canglang instinctively thought that Beihan Mingzhi would not act first, and since he was also in a rage, he did not have any preparation at all.

“You …” Wei Canglang’s eyes were wide open as his gaze shifted to Beihan Mingzhi’s mocking gaze. His body then flew away with a loud bang.

Even though they were both 10th Level Divine Kings, it was not easy for them to determine victory or defeat in a short period of time despite the disparity between them. However, even though Wei Canglang, who was furiously focusing his energy on his Extreme Devil Sword was in the state of weak defense, he was still unable to stop the momentum of his incredibly hurried profound aura and directly flew across the battlefield, smashing fiercely outside the battlefield.

Coma, admitting defeat, being blasted out of the battlefield, it all counts as a defeat!

“Since Wei Canglang has fallen outside the battlefield, Beihan Mingzhi wins!”

An ear-splitting announcement resounded throughout the battlefield. The entire audience was dumbstruck, and most people didn’t even have the time to react to what had happened.

Defeated? Wei Canglang was actually defeated just like that?!

“This …” The people from the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation were all horrified. The face of Nanhuang Mofeng darkened to the point that he seemed to have swallowed shit.

As one of the four strongest people in the South Phoenix battle array, Wei Canglang’s intention was to face the battle of dignity provoked by Beihan Mingzhi! They had originally believed with all their hearts that even if Wei Canglang could not defeat Beihan Mingzhi, he would still only be defeated miserably.

However, in a single exchange… In just one exchange, Wei Canglang was sent out of the battlefield.

Defeat was incomparably easy, and it was even more so incomparably humiliating and ugly.

“Hahaha, hahahaha!” After a short period of silence, unrestrained and wanton laughter simultaneously rang out from the side of the Eastern and Western Ruins Sects. These laughter were instantly like shamed spikes piercing straight into the soul of the people from the Southern Phoenix.

Even those Southern Phoenix Profound Practitioners who came to watch the battle felt their faces flush red.

BOOM!

With an explosive sound, Wei Canglang’s body rose up from the ground. There was only a very shallow smear of blood at the corner of his mouth, and he was obviously not seriously injured, but under his extreme anger and shame, his face was twisted into a complete mess: “Beihan Mingzhi, you …”

“No need to say anymore.” The Southern Phoenix Divine Sovereign suddenly opened his mouth, interrupting what he was about to say. No one could be willing to accept such a defeat. However, a loss is a loss. A loss is a loss and one cannot afford to lose, it will only make people look down on him even more, “Your opponent did not violate the rules of the battlefield.”

“…” Wei Canglang clenched his teeth as he fiercely stared at Beihan Mingzhi. What he met with was the scornful gaze of the other party, as if telling him: “You really are a dumb dog.”

He almost used the greatest determination of his life to suppress the urge to risk his life to fight against Beihan Mingzhi. He lowered his head and returned to the Southern Phoenix battle formation.

Northern Cold City was the untouchable leader of the Battle of the Center Ruins. The pride and arrogance of the Northern Cold City made them disdain these kinds of methods. However, it was clear that the situation was different today… Not only did Northern Cold City want to make the Southern Phoenix lose, it also wanted to lose in an extremely miserable way and in an extremely ugly way!

“It’s not your fault.” Nanhuang Mofeng he turned his gaze slightly, and coldly stared at Nanhuang Chanyi. With his status and strength, he had always been a venerated elder in front of her. However, even with her identity as the “crown princess”, he would not be too presumptuous, and at this moment, not a single trace of respect could be seen in his eyes. There was only the cold dignity and might within his voice. “You’d better be prepared.”

Nanhuang Chanyi remained silent.

The Southern Phoenix Divine Sovereign looked at Nanhuang Mofeng saying a few words to Chanyi, but he did not say anything, as if he was silent.

“Heh, are the peak Divine Kings from the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation so weak?” Beihan Mingzhi shook his wrist sagely and said with a look of contempt, “What a disappointment.”

Not only did it cause the Southern Phoenix to lose an incomparably shameful defeat, he was even ridiculing them in front of everyone. The people of the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation couldn’t help but gnash their teeth, but they couldn’t do anything about it. They began to consciously turn their gaze towards the quiet Nanhuang Chanyi … The reverence and admiration from before had turned into a sense of guilt and anger.

“Who’s next!”

As soon as Beihan Mingzhi’s wise words fell, a member of the Western Ruins Sect leaped up and landed on the battlefield, “Han Shao from the Western Ruins Realm, asks for advice!”

The appearance of the Western Ruins’ Profound Practitioners also determined the order in which the battles would take place in the Central Ruins.

“Although I believe that I am not Brother Mingzhi’s competitor, I am not like some trash who would lose his face in one blow.” Han Shao chuckled, and slapped the face of the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation without concealing anything.

“On the battlefield, we cannot speak without thinking.” Northern Cold Divine Sovereign tone was flat, but he did not have any intention of reprimanding Hao Shao. There was a faint smile on his face, but there was also a hint of praise in his tone.

“Haha, please!” Beihan Mingzhi let out a wise laugh.

Beihan Mingzhi and Han Shao fought against each other, and the power of the two Divine Kings burst forth. The Battle of the Center Ruins seemed to have truly begun at this moment, and the previous battle was nothing more than a joke.

The two battled for a long time, and in the end, Beihan Mingzhi won wisely without any mishaps.

The third battle was fought by the Eastern Ruins. It was fought by the participant Zhong Yanfeng, one of the external helpers from the Eastern Ruins Sect, a Divine King who was a Level 10 from the Western realm.

In the previous battle between Beihan Mingzhi and Han Shao, his Energy Consumption was quite high. In this battle, Beihan Mingzhi still had some advantage, but winning would be quite difficult, and he wouldn’t have much energy left.

And in the next match, the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation would step up.

If there was another peak Divine King from the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation, he would definitely be able to be smart enough to defeat Beihan Mingzhi in the next match, and thus save some face for himself.

Zhong Yanfeng did not make a move. His gaze swept across Northern Cold City, and then he suddenly smiled and said, “Although I rarely step out of the Eastern Ruins Realm, I have long heard of Brother Mingzhi’s great reputation. I know that I am no match for you in this battle. I am willing to admit defeat.”

Walla ~ ~ ~

The victor of the Battle of Central Ruins would always be accepting challenges on the battlefield. Even if he was bound to lose, he would still use up his profound strength. As a result, there were almost no adversaries in the Battle of the Center Ruins.

The sudden admittance of defeat of the Eastern Ruins Realm caused an uproar within the entire audience, but after the uproar, they all suddenly understood what was going on and their gazes of pity and sadness immediately turned towards the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation.

“Hahaha!” Beihan Mingzhi let out a wise laugh. “Brother Zhong’s magnanimity is admirable, and I accept your kindness.”

“Zhong Yanfeng admits defeat, Beihan Mingzhi wins!”

Not only in Northern Cold City, the Western and Eastern Ruins Profound Practitioners had also fiercely stomped them into the ground in front of everyone… The few words that Nanhuang Chanyi said caused the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation to experience a drastic change in their situation, miserable to the point that it could be described as tragic.

From the Southern Phoenix Imperial Family to the spectating Profound Practitioners, all of their faces were ashen, as though they were going to break apart at any moment. But… What could they do?

The second Profound Practitioner from the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation appeared, and this time, he was a 10th Level Divine King aswell.

In the end, he was still defeated by Beihan Mingzhi who still had a lot of strength left in his hands.

In the quartet battles, the losers would be fixed at the third position, and then it continues to the next person, until all ten of them were defeated.

This battle between Divine Kings were just as shocking and intense as before. The various Divine Kings displayed their abilities to the brim, causing countless of Profound Practitioners to exclaim in shock as their blood boiled.

But… In the intensity of the battle, everyone could smell the peculiarity of it.

The Northern Cold City’s Battle Formation’s overall strength was still the strongest. It had been in the battlefield the longest and had lost the least. The Eastern Ruins’ Western Ruins’ victories and losses were similar.

As for the Southern Phoenix Divine Kingdom …

In the previous battles of the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation, regardless of whether it was the Northern Cold City, Western Ruins Realm, or the Eastern Ruins Realm, the victors would all use different methods to face off against the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation with the greatest amount of strength.

The first battle… The second battle… The third battle… The seventh battle… The eighth battle…

All defeated!

In the previous Battle of the Center Ruins, although the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation’s overall strength was the weakest, there was bound to be a time when the ten participating Profound Practitioners would win. Moreover, every single person who took part in this battle would either be defeated in an extremely ugly way or in an incomparably miserable manner.

Northern Cold City, Eastern Ruins Sect, Western Ruins Sect, Nine Glorious Heavenly Palace …. Any side would be enough to suppress the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation. However, Nanhuang Chanyi had rejected ‘Beihan Chu’ in public, and had caused them to join hands and trample on them in public …

It was very obvious that they came to a tacit understanding that they wanted to let the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation who participated in this Battle of the Middle Ruins… To suffer a complete defeat!

In the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation, in the Quiet Ruins Five Realms, this will forever be an imprint of incomparable humiliation in the history of the Battle of the Center Ruins!

No one would be surprised that Northern Cold City would be so angry as to target them. However, do the East Ruins Sect, the West Ruins Sect, and the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation also have unbreakable enmity?

No, of course not.

In the world, the expert is revered, so why not step on a weakling who was destined to fall to their death to curry favor with an expert who was destined to soar above the heavens?!

In the past, the Northern Cold City was the strongest sect, but it was not enough to make them act like this. However, with the halo of the “Northern Ranking”, which Beihan Chu was a part of… If they could get close to him and get on his good side, they could do anything they wanted.

The Battle of the Center Ruins continued, but all of South Phoenix’s forces no longer had the desire to watch the battle. It had already been a long time since the last sound was heard from the enormous Southern Phoenix Formation realm.

The faces of the last few Profound Practitioners who had yet to fight were all ashen, how could they still have any fighting spirit left … They even wished that they could just flee the battlefield.

“Hmph, how utterly boring.” Qianye Ying’er closed her eyes and muttered… As a person who had once been a peak Divine Master would not bother or care for the battle of Divine Kings and even forming groups to play with such inferior means.

Yun Che remained silent throughout, and his attention was basically not focused on the battles on the battlefield, but he mostly focused on Nanhuang Chanyi at his side.

Because the one who caused the Southern Phoenix Divine Nation to be “buried” in this realm was too calm.

“Have you seen enough?” She suddenly spoke up, her beautiful eyes slowly turning away.

This was the first time she opened her mouth and spoke after the beginning of the Battle of the Center Ruins.

“…” The corner of Yun Che’s mouth twitched, and he said indifferently: “Next time you ask this question, take off your clothes first!”
