Cao Xin's shouts spread throughout the audience and echoed in everyone's hearts.

The various reputations attached to Cao Xin seemed to disappear without a trace following his begging for mercy.

Many people's beautiful fantasy and worship of Cao Xin burst like a bubble at this moment.

What a genius or a son, he is a poor worm kneeling under the mighty sword.

"Ahhhhh..."

Seeing the lightning and sword light getting closer, Cao Xin yelled like crazy again, shaking all over.

"you dare!"

The Duke Wei Guo on the high platform finally couldn't help it, Huo Ran got up and shouted violently at the bottom.

In fact, Lu Pingan didn't even want to kill Cao Xin, he didn't care about his life, but he didn't want to break the rules of the competition.

Even if the so-called rules have long been distorted by Cao Xin's use of power relations, there is still a bottom line.

Lu Pingan's sword power was fierce, like a thunderous rage, but he was still quite sober and calm inside, not forgetting his original intention.

In Lu Ping'an's view, it is absolutely worthless to replace Cao Xin with his life.

But when he heard Duke Wei’s loud shout, Lu Ping’an frowned in disgust, thinking, if I really want to kill your son, can you stop me? Unless it is a reincarnation cultivator who is forced to take action, if I want him to die, he must die!

For a moment, Lu Ping'an really moved to Kill Nian because of Duke Wei.

However, he calmed down in an instant, and when the thunder and lightning sword power was about to smash Cao Xin into pieces, he raised his hand and swiped upwards.

But in that direction, it was actually pointed at Duke Wei Guo!

Countless exclamations erupted from the audience, and many people stood up directly from their seats.

The big figures on the high platform also showed surprised expressions, but they were not panicked.

Because they will not forget that there is a shield around the martial arts platform, and there are strong people sitting near the high platform.

No one can harm any of them, including Duke Wei.

Immediately afterwards, I saw that extremely powerful lightning sword power, following that direction, flying into the sky, with a loud bang, smashing a large cloud of floating clouds.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but there was still a sense of shock.

At this time, anyone could tell that Lu Pingan didn't want to attack Duke Weiguo, that sword might flew towards the sky from the beginning.

And the reason why he did this was just a kind of resistance or... demonstration without fear of power.

If Wei Guogong is an ordinary audience, it doesn't matter how he calls it, but he sits there as the person who assists Wangye An to preside over the meeting as the Guogong. This means that he has a great right to speak, and can even be called Stop the competition.

He had just tampered with the rules before, and just now he wanted to threaten Lu Ping'an and disrupt the competition process.

Not to mention Lu Pingan's unhappy heart, even some viewers felt that the father and son, relying on their status and power, deceived too much!

Lu Ping'an just demonstrated with a sword, showing an attitude of never giving in, which was already a rather restrained response.

At this time, Duke Wei Guo's eyes were round and he was stunned. He was not scared, but he never expected that Lu Ping'an would dare to do this!

He is a dignified man, the highest noble rank outside the royal family, with power in his hands and full of power!

But... this kid dared to swing his sword openly at each other, even if he didn't mean to attack, it was already a great offense that deserved death!

However, just when Duke Wei Guo was about to get angry, Lord An, who was sitting next to him, said solemnly: "Sit down! Don't be ashamed!"

Hearing this, Duke Wei Guo woke up and found that everyone on the high platform, as well as many audiences, were looking at him with strange eyes.

As the Lord of the country, he did not distinguish between public and private, and he was really disqualified to deal with a powerless young man in public. Not only did he embarrass himself, but he would also damage Longyan. After all, the emperor also let him come because he trusted him. To assist Lord An.

After a while, Duke Wei Guo sat down again, his face extremely gloomy.

On the martial arts stage, Lu Pingan glanced at Wei Guogong from a distance, then retracted his gaze and fell on Cao Xin.

At this time, Cao Xin was in a coma, lying in a pool of blood, with scarlet sword marks all over his body, looking extremely miserable.

Lu Ping's sword power did not strike him, but those sharp sword auras were still like small knives, cutting Cao Xin's body with cuts and bruises.

With Lu Pingan's precise control over swordsmanship, it is naturally avoidable, but this is the result of his intentional actions.

He can leave Cao Xin's life, but under the allowed rules, he will not be merciful, and he will surely suffer serious injuries.

Such injuries, even with the best doctors and medicines, can take two or three months at the earliest to recover.

And the blow to Cao Xin's heart from this battle may also affect his future cultivation mood.

The irony is that this is what Cao Xin's father and son have revised, but now it is no different from shooting himself in the foot with a rock.

Lu Pingan put away the Fuliu sword and said, "Referee, what are you waiting for?"

Because Lu Ping's behavior was so thrilling just now, the referee was stunned for a while before he realized it.

"The quarter-finals, the second group, Lu Pingan wins and advances to the semi-finals!"

A shout, resounding through the audience.

Everyone realized that Lu Pingan really defeated Cao Xin, and he still won by a big advantage!

But the scene still seemed a bit quiet. Some people still refuse to accept the reality. Some people have criticized Lu Ping'an before and don’t know what to do...

However, after all, there was still a sound.

"Lu Pingan mighty!"

"Win beautiful!"

"Little Brother Lu is too good!"

Those few people who secretly supported Lu Ping'an couldn't help but shout out at this time, feeling extremely excited.

They watched Lu Ping’s change from no one to support, to being oppressed by the powerful, and then to the stunned all sides. With a sword, the mood was ups and downs, and they were even more nervous than Lu Ping’s. Now they can’t ignore the eyes of others and shout directly. Out of my mind.

Lu Pingan looked at the few people separately, then arched his hands, bowed silently, and then turned and walked down.

Until Lu Pingan's back disappeared from people's sight, no more congratulations sounded, as if this was an unrecognized victory.

For a long time, people have respected Wei Guogong and Cao Xinshizi. Even if they were very gaffes today and ended in a disastrous defeat, although this will indeed cause a lot of adverse effects, many people still need to digest this change before they can regain their lives. Look at the father and son of Weiguo.

It is difficult for them to change from supporting Cao Xin and attacking Lu Ping An in such a short period of time, and then raising their hands to cheer and applaud Lu Ping An.

But Lu Pingan didn't care. If you win, you win. Even if there is no applause, he will continue to fight.

Lu Ping'an walked to the rest area, but saw Duan Muyu already sitting there, unscathed, his face as usual.

No need to ask, Duan Muyu definitely won, and it didn't take too long.

Xue Chengwu was also sitting on the other side of the seat, closing his eyes and resting.

Both of them were fighting true martial arts cultivators, relatively speaking, it was relatively easy.

Duan Muyu did not ask Lu Pingan, but guessed the result, and said, "How do you feel?"

"not bad."

Lu Ping'an did not have too strong joy in victory, because he knew from the beginning that he could win.

However, Cao Xin was seriously injured and another demonstration to defend the country, which really made him feel good.

Duan Muyu smiled and said: "That's enough, that kind of person is not worth paying too much attention to."

"It makes sense."

Lu Ping'an nodded, and stopped thinking about the two fathers and sons.

Duan Muyu said: "Now only Hong Yang and Si Kongyuan have not finished playing, who do you think will win?"

Lu Pingan said: "The two of them can play for so long, and they should be of equal strength, but Hong Yang acted impulsively and arrogantly. Sikong is far better at calculating. I feel that the latter has a higher chance of winning."

Duan Muyu said, "Well, what I saw is similar."

After a while, Si Kongyuan walked into the rest area as expected.

Lu Ping'an could even imagine how a guy like Hong Yang would look like anxious after losing the competition.

But the battle between the two of them must have been quite fierce. Si Kongyuan was wounded on his body and his complexion was a little pale, which obviously consumed a lot of spiritual energy.

Immediately, a middle-aged man walked in and said, "The four of you will be competing in the evening. If you have any injuries or severe burns, you can call a doctor over, or go to a small spiritual gathering with me, and try to start the test. Before returning to the best state."

In fact, this resting area itself has a slight healing effect of gathering spirits.

There were so many participants in the previous conference, and it was impossible for everyone to use a well-functioning spirit gathering array.

But the game to be played in the evening, after all, is the semi-finals, it is of great importance, and there will still be some special care.

Xue Chengwu seemed to fall asleep sitting there, and Duan Muyu shook his head without responding.

They all win easily, consume little, and can recover from normal movement.

Lu Pingan said: "I don't need it, thank you."

Si Kongyuan said, "I need to use the Spirit Gathering Array."

Then, the middle-aged man walked out with Si Kongyuan.

Duan Muyu said: "Although you may not have suffered any injuries, you must have consumed a lot of spiritual power, right? Why not go?"

Lu Pingan smiled and said, "I have a better recovery method myself."

Duan Muyu didn't ask much, walked to the futon on the other side, sat down cross-legged, and said, "Then rest well and see you in the evening."

Lu Ping'an nodded, sitting cross-legged, calling out a beast core and holding it in his hand.

The operation of the devouring system didn't make any movement, so Lu Ping's silently absorbed the beast core and refined it.
