#2082 - The Fifth-Rank Immortal Emperor Takes Action (Part 1)
#2082 - The Fifth-Rank Immortal Emperor Takes Action (Part 1)
Of course, there was one exception: Zhao Chuan.
Zhao Chuan had originally thought he would be the only one humiliated.
He didn't expect that Li Chang might be joining him.
He was now secretly praying that Li Chang would lose.
As the saying goes, being ridiculed alone is very lonely; being ridiculed with someone else makes it feel a little more balanced!
Locke and the others communicated telepathically:
"Li Chang has already shown his full strength, yet he still can't defeat this Qin Emperor. He's truly terrifying."
"Who says otherwise? Li Chang is a Third-Rank Celestial Emperor, one of the best here, yet he can't defeat Qin Emperor."
"He was boasting before that he had no problem dealing with Qin Emperor. Now he's getting slapped in the face."
"Alas, don't make it harder for him. He probably didn't expect Qin Emperor to be so strong, otherwise he definitely wouldn't have said such a thing."
......
The more Li Chang fought, the more shocked and disheartened he became.
Before he entered the arena, he never imagined Qin Yi was so powerful.
Or rather, when he watched the battle between Qin Yi and Zhao Chuan.
His inner thought was, 'I can do that too!'
But when it was his turn, he truly realized that it wasn't a matter of 'can do' or 'can't do'.
It was that there was no hope of winning.
"Damn it, how did this Qin Emperor cultivate? Did he start fighting from the womb?"
After hundreds of rounds, he had completely fallen into a disadvantage.
Even resisting was difficult.
The surface of the puppet he controlled was covered in wounds.
"Boom!"
As Qin Yi heavily slashed down, the puppet controlled by Li Chang completely shattered.
Qin Yi didn't look at Li Chang, but instead looked at Locke.
His questioning gaze was very obvious: was his reward also coming from you?
Locke felt a slight bitterness in his heart when he saw Qin Yi's questioning gaze.
Although he had considerable savings, this wealth didn't come from nowhere.
It was also accumulated through his hard work over the years.
However, wanting to win over people's hearts, he had previously paid Zhao Chuan's reward.
If he didn't pay Li Chang's reward now, he would definitely be resented by the latter.
When dealing with people, you often can't focus on one thing and lose sight of the other.
Especially in front of everyone, even if his heart ached, he had to put on a brave face.
Locke took out a spatial ring and handed it to Qin Yi, saying, "Li Chang's reward is inside. Please check it."
Qin Yi smiled and said, "There's no need to check at all. I believe you wouldn't cheat on this matter."
With so many people watching, only a fool would think of going back on their word.
He threw the spatial ring into the system store for recycling.
[Ding! Item value calculation in progress...]
[Calculation complete, total value: 10 million Saint-level points.]
Including these 10 million Saint-level points.
The system store's Saint-level point balance became 38,080,600.
"This trip to the battle tower is really fruitful!"
This kind of gain was not originally in Qin Yi's plan.
Or rather, when he came to the 399th area, Qin Yi wanted to learn more about things.
So that he wouldn't be completely ignorant when his voice increased in the future.
He never expected to obtain so many cultivation resources...
Moreover, these cultivation resources were more than the sum of what he had obtained in the Ancient Primordial, Barren Land, etc.
Li Chang looked at Locke with a complicated tone and said, "I've embarrassed everyone."
Locke patted him on the shoulder and comforted him, "It's not your fault. We can all see that you've tried your best."
"It's just that this Qin Emperor is too strong. It's normal to lose to such an existence."
The strength he referred to was Qin Yi's powerful combat skills.
Li Chang stopped talking and silently stood behind Locke and the others.
The other Celestial Emperors looked at Locke.
"A Third-Rank Celestial Emperor displayed his true strength, yet he still lost to this Qin Emperor. Could he really be an old monster hiding his cultivation?"
"It's hard to say. Anyway, from my perspective, it's most likely like that."
"The best and most direct way to know everything about Qin Emperor is to find Wanlong, but he definitely won't tell us."
"Wanlong strictly adheres to the principle of confidentiality for each of us and each force. It's simply impossible to get any information from him."
...
Regarding Wanlong's way of doing things, these Celestial Emperors' tone was filled with complaints and agreement.
After all, for most existences, no one wants their information to be transparent.
Especially since they are now discussing dealing with the Chaos Gods of the Third Star Ring...
Once transparent, it may bring disaster to themselves and their forces.
There are advantages, and there are inconveniences.
The so-called advantage is that everyone doesn't have to worry about their information being leaked.
The inconvenience is that it's extremely difficult for someone to do something by relying on some means!
Qin Yi looked at Locke and said, "It's your turn next."
Locke smiled and said to Qin Yi, "Qin Emperor, before we officially spar, I have a question. I don't know if you can help me answer it?"
Qin Yi said, "What question?"
Locke said, "Is your cultivation really at the Heavenly Illumination Realm?"
Qin Yi didn't deny this, he nodded and said, "It is indeed the Heavenly Illumination Realm."
Lying on this question is obviously unwise.
Sometimes lies are needed, but in this situation, telling the truth is far more unnerving than lying.
Lies will be exposed, and the truth... judging from Qin Yi's current performance, probably no one will believe it.
It can be said that his current admission that his cultivation is at the Heavenly Illumination Realm is a lie in the eyes of others!
Locke felt a little uneasy when he saw Qin Yi like this.
This was completely different from the answer he had in mind.
Mustering all his energy, they had already lost two consecutive matches.
If he, the grand finale, failed in the third match, he basically wouldn't want to see anyone in the 399th area in the future.
Locke said, "Qin Emperor, be careful."
Qin Yi nodded and said, "Let's begin."
The sparring between the two puppets quickly began.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
...
The weapons clashed, and after dozens of rounds, the two puppets were evenly matched.
The other Celestial Emperors said one after another:
"It seems this time Locke has hope and confidence to win against this Qin Emperor, which can be regarded as redeeming himself."
"You say this is redeeming himself? Don't you think it's a bit embarrassing? After all, the two Celestial Emperors before and after have lost to Qin Emperor."
"That's right, it would be a complete fantasy if a Fifth-Rank Celestial Emperor taking action personally in the third game still couldn't win. In my opinion, it can't be called redeeming himself at all."
"It can only be said that Locke winning is normal, it's just putting a not-so-perfect end to this matter. If he loses... he shouldn't see anyone in the future."
