Chapter 411 - A Crushing Defeat

“This woman from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion is so powerful that even Zhou Nan from the Ten Thousand Demons Valley is at a disadvantage in this first encounter.”

“Bah! This woman just caught him off guard. If not for that, she definitely wouldn’t be Zhou Nan’s match!”

“That’s right. Zhou Nan is currently the top disciple of the Ten Thousand Demons Valley, and a hot candidate to win the grand competition this time. This woman may be quite strong, but she is definitely not a match for him.”

The voices of the audience rose and fell in the stands. However, it was clear that they did not think highly of Qing Zhu. Instead, they decided that the winner of this competition would be Zhou Nan.

Due to Qing Zhu’s appearance, and the fact that she landed a blow on Zhou Nan, their arena attracted the attention of the majority of the audience in the stands.

In the face of the discussions coming from the stands, Qing Zhu turned a deaf ear to them and did not affect her state of mind at all.

“You’re very lucky.” She looked straight at Zhou Nan, who was not far away, and said in a calm voice.

Zhou Nan coughed a few times and rubbed his still somewhat numb chest. He took out a bright silver armor from within. This was obviously a spirit tool that had helped him block the attack just now. However, the surface of this armor had already been damaged.

“You are very strong. Although I usually live in seclusion in the Ten Thousand Demons Valley, I am not completely ignorant of the outside world. I am very curious… When did a person like you appear in the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion?”

Zhou Nan casually threw the armor in his hand to the side and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Qing Zhu gave him a sense of danger.

Although his spirit tool was only at the earth-grade, it was not something that an ordinary cultivator could destroy with one palm strike.

However, the Qing Zhu actually destroyed an earth-grade defensive spirit tool with one attack. Moreover, she did not seem to have used her full strength. From this, one could see how terrifying her strength was.

“There will be more things that you do not know.” Qing Zhu’s red lips parted slightly. Rolling emerald green spiritual energy surged out from her graceful body.

At the same time, a heavy pressure also appeared. It was so heavy that one could not breathe.

“What a powerful pressure!” Zhou Nan’s pupils shrunk. His expression immediately became a little ugly.

However, he was after all an elite of his generation. He did not panic because of this. One could only see his hands quickly forming a strange hand gesture in front of his chest. Immediately, the spiritual energy within his body began to be consumed at an alarming rate.

A strange ripple erupted from within his body. A large amount of spiritual energy gathered behind him and formed a thousand feet tall stone door.

Zhou Nan’s face turned a little pale when the stone door appeared. His entire body appeared haggard. He looked as though he was about to die at any moment.

At the same time, the huge stone door began to tremble. Soon after, it began to slowly open. It was as though something was about to come out.

Roar roar roar–

A deafening beast roar rang out. The sound wave swept up a violent wind, blowing up dust in the air, and spreading to the surroundings.

Fortunately, each arena had a separate protective barrier, which prevented the impact from spreading out and affecting the other arenas’ matches. It will also protect the spectators in the stands.

At this moment, the hundred-foot-long stone door finally opened, and a demon beast covered in flames slowly walked out. This demon beast was a thousand feet tall, and its overall size was extremely large. Humans were as tiny as ants in front of it.

“It’s actually the Blazing Fire Demon Ape… This aura… I think it’s the divine soul of the Saint-level demon beast that Zhou Nan subdued.” Tong Shan spoke in a deep voice in the room, his eyes filled with worry.

The Blazing Fire Demon Ape had a fiery personality. It could suppress most of the demon beasts of the same level, and it could even fight demon beasts above its level!

“Miss Qing Zhu should be fine, right?” Tang Conglin, who was at the side, also had a worried look on his face, with a bitter smile on his face.

He also knew how difficult it was to deal with the demon ape. If anything happened to Qing Zhu during the competition…

The thought of Qing Zhu carrying the Ten Thousand Treasures Golden Token gave them a headache.

“Don’t worry. If Qing Zhu wasn’t strong, why would Zhou Nan summon this trump card during the qualifiers?” Gu Xi crossed his arms in front of his chest, his voice full of confidence.

Hearing this, Hou Yu, who was at the side, curled his lips in disdain.

In the arena, facing this mountain-like Blazing Fire Demon Ape, Qing Zhu’s expression did not change much, and the pressure emitted by the demon ape did not seem to have any obvious effect on her.

“Is this your trump card?” Qing Zhu said indifferently. She raised her head to glance at the ferocious-looking demon ape, and then her gaze fell on Zhou Nan on the other side of the arena. “Truly trash.”

These simple words caused Zhou Nan’s expression to turn extremely gloomy.

Back then, in order to subdue this demon ape’s soul, the sect had even paid the price of an elder, and he himself had also suffered a lot of pain!

And now, this woman actually called the demon ape trash!
