Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 384 - Top Three

Yan Hong had lost!

Chan Fan had defeated someone many had expected to win the competition.

Many were left shaken by the unexpected turn of events. Perhaps this dark horse, Chen Fan, would take the first place for himself?

The battlefield erupted into a frenzy of discussions, buzzing with excitement.

“Heavens, he is unstoppable. If even Yan Hong failed to beat him, who can? Could it be that he has the strength to suppress the four strongest?”

"I have a feeling that Chen Fan might just walk away with the championship."

“With his victory over Yan Hong, Chen Fan has secured a spot in the top five. He\'s now a strong candidate for the top three and even the first place."

“I wonder if Yuan Kun, Li Wangsheng, or Shangguan Yuhai can stop Chen Fan?”

“......”

In the space on the highest stand, Wei Buyu laughed out loud again.

“Hahahaha, good, excellent! Just as I expected from my esteemed disciple. Well done! Fengyunzi, Chen Muyang, you people have seen it for yourselves. Even Yan Hong has lost to Chen Fan. Who stands a chance against him now? Your treasures are now mine."

Wei Buyu reached out, wanting to collect their treasures.

“Hold on, Wei Buyu!” Fengyunzi shouted. He said coldly, “Although Chen Fan has defeated Yan Hong, he’s only entered the top five for now. Our bet is on whether he will enter the top three!”

“Hmph!” Wei Buyu snorted coldly and said with displeasure, “You old coots, you refuse to see the facts until the very last moment. Given the current situation, his place in the top three is practically assured. Are you going to renege on your bet?”

“Quit messing around, Wei Buyu. If you want our treasures, wait until Chen Fan enters the top three!” said a grand elder from the Floating Cloud Sword Sect.

“Fine, I’ll let you hold on to my treasures for a while longer. Let\'s see how long you can hold out. If you still refuse to hand over the treasures even after he is one of the top three, don\'t blame me for losing my patience.”

......

Chen Fan came out from the arena and returned to his seat with an indifferent expression.

He had now entered the top five; another victory and he would enter the top three.

Suddenly, a wave of discussion swept across the battlefield like a tidal wave.

The battle for the top three had begun, featuring Spring Autumn Sect\'s Yuan Kun and Floating Cloud Sword Sect\'s Li Wangsheng as the designated fighters.

These two were considered the top contenders for the first-place title in the martial arts competition, even more so than Shangguan Yuhai and Yan Hong.

Thus, when they were matched against one another, their fight immediately became the focal point of this competition. Countless gazes fell on them.

“Is this for real? Yuan Kun and Li Wangsheng are facing off in this battle for the top three. Could this be a glimpse of the final showdown in the competition?"

“The two of them are the most favored to win this martial arts competition. A fight between them is like Mars crashing into Earth.”

“Championship battle. This battle is like an early championship match.”

“......”

The entire battlefield erupted with excitement.

Suddenly, a figure clad in snow-white attire appeared in the space at the highest stand. His aura was immensely powerful, exerting considerable pressure on the grand elders present.

Swish!

“Duan Jingtian!”

“Duan Jingtian!”

The faces of the four sects’ grand elders changed.

“Greetings to all the grand elders.” Duan Jingtian cupped his fists, greeting the grand elders. His demeanor was neither overly respectful nor disrespectful.

These grand elders did not mind, either, and nodded in return.

Although Duan Jingtian was the number one holy disciple of the Spring Autumn Sect, he was stronger than ninety percent of the grand elders here. There weren’t many experts at the eighth level of the Core Formation realm even across the four great sects.

One of the grand elders seated next to Elder Liehuo vacated their spot, allowing Duan Jingtian to take the seat. This gesture highlighted Duan Jingtian\'s status, as even a sect grand elder yielded to him.

“Paramita Divine Flower.”

Duan Jingtian saw the Paramita Divine Flower hovering in the air. A hint of greed flashed across his eyes. He wasn’t that far away from reaching the ninth level.

He had lost the liquid from the Fountain of Life, so he couldn’t reach the ninth level soon, but he didn’t mind that. He was confident he could reach the next level within a year and then aim for the Divine Nascent realm.

Elder Liehuo whispered a summary of the recent events to Duan Jingtian, making the latter\'s eyebrows raise in surprise.

Meanwhile, Yuan Kun and Li Wangsheng started exchanging blows on the battlefield.

Both of them were strong and had a more than seventy percent solid illusory core. While they were a step away from the Core Formation realm, their combat strength was already there.

Their clash was akin to two celestial bodies colliding, sending shockwaves rippling across the battlefield.

“Too strong. So, this is a battle between top experts below the Core Formation realm. Terrifying. Too terrifying!”

“I feel like there isn’t any difference between them and genuine Core Formation realm experts. My god, their punches and palm strikes could simply blow up the space.

“It’s too bad they ran into one another early and played out the championship battle in advance.”

“......”

Outside the arena, the crowd boiled with excitement, like they were fighting on the battlefield themselves. The atmosphere was so charged that it seemed as if the sky was collapsing, the earth was splitting open, and the sun, moon, and seas were losing their light.

The token hadn’t led Chen Fan to his next fight yet, so he was also watching the fight.

Admittedly, Yuan Kun and Li Wangsheng were indeed incredibly strong. It was like two ancient piranha kings were fighting.

Yuan Kun’s fist art was boundlessly domineering. Every punch seemed capable of collapsing the sky and making the earth sink.

On the other hand, Li Wangsheng’s sword strokes seemed to be aiming for his opponent’s life. Terrifying sword light illuminated the space, chilling heaven and earth.

The two fought intensely.

In the end, Yuan Kun was a notch above in skills and defeated Li Wangsheng.

Immediately, almost everyone assumed that Yuan Kun would win the competition.

After that battle, Shangguan Yuhai fought another Illusory Core realm expert. He took down his opponent within fifty moves, displaying an overwhelming superiority over his opponent.

With that, the top three of the martial arts competition emerged: Chen Fan, Yuan Kun, and Shangguan Yuhai.

Everyone’s gaze fell on the three.
