Then, Ashwin told Masie the story of Nile Hsia, the crown prince of the Great Hsia Domain, who had attracted the people's attention by utilizing the long-lost World Tree Yuan Seal.
After listening to the story, she sighed emotionally in admiration.
'T m afraid that no one knows of the secret behind the crown prince of the Grand Hsia Domain, the struggles of the Grand Hsia Domain two thousand years ago, and the World Tree Yuan Seal' s sudden reappearance."
At this moment, Alyx on the opposite side of the arena recognized Fade's Yuan Seal too.
Suddenly, his lips curled into a sneer.
"World Tree Yuan Seal; it's a piece of trash!"
"How dare you fight against me with that thing? You're seeking death.”
With a stern cry, Alyx commanded his Yuan Seal. It whizzed over and prepared to launch a ferocious attack against Fade.
Whoosh!
The sharp and fatal Starry Rain Sword whizzed towards Fade.
At this moment, the World Tree Yuan Seal behind Fade rose to the sky.
Just like that, the sword and the tree collided together.
"Slash it!”
Alyx shouted confidently.
The sword slashed down and flashed a silver light. Like a sharp blade, it slashed off the root of Fade's World Tree Yuan Seal.
Alyx was ready to cut off Fade's Yuan Seal with a sword.
Swoosh!
The sharp sword's energy hit the World Tree Yuan Seal's surface.
A silver light burst out from the point of collision.
However, what happened next was completely beyond everyone's expectations.
Fade's World Tree Yuan Seal was not cut off by the sword as they had expected.
Instead, the World tree resisted Alyx's sword energy. It was blocked by a layer of yellow light before it could break the bark of the World Tree, then dissipated into smoke.
The onlookers could not help but exclaim in surprise.
"He blocked it! He actually blocked it!"
"World Tree Yuan Seal; is it that tough? Can it block a fifth-grade Human Level Starry Rain Sword Yuan Seal?"
"Perhaps, we misunderstood the use of the World Tree Yuan Seal. Maybe if s not a useless Yuan Seal, after all."
"Haha, you're thinking too much. A good-for-nothing Yuan Seal is a useless Yuan Seal. Even if it blocked the attack, so what? That was only a streak of sword energy sent out by Alyx's Starry Rain Sword Yuan Seal. He hasn't used his true unique skill yet!"
"Once Fade truly angers Alyx and forces him to use his ultimate move, he will be asking for trouble."
Alyx's face was flushed red with anger as he stared at Fade and shouted, "Very well! You have successfully angered me."
"Now, I want to kill you!"
After that, he pointed to the sky with both hands, and a stream of positive energy rose up to the sky and poured into the Starry Rain Sword.
Then, the silver Yuan Seal emitted a dazzling gleam, then swiftly split into streaks of silver light in the air. The lights increased in number and covered almost the entire arena.
The silver lights seemed like countless stars twinkling in the air.
Such a scene was especially magnificent and dazzling. Hence, it drew waves of cheers and exclamations of surprise from the crowd.
Then, Alyx's hands suddenly fell and pointed forward.
Just then, a swishing sound was heard.
Thousands of silver lights moved instantly in the air.
The countless silver lights drew arcs across the sky as they darted forward and rushed towards Fade.
At that moment, the onlookers felt as if they were hallucinating.
It was as if the bright stars in the sky had turned into meteor showers, falling down one after another.
The bright lights looked just like a silver rain falling from the sky.
At this moment, the Starry Rain Sword finally exerted its real power.
With a confident and cruel smile, Alyx stared at Fade and spat out a word, "Die!"
Deniz' s face was full of mockery as he purposefully looked at Yarrow and the others. He then said, "Ah! The Starry Rain Sword is attacking. He’s dead for sure!"
Meanwhile, Devin also shook his head. With a regretful tone, he said, "What a pity. I thought he had some talent. Alas!"
Under such circumstances, Yarrow could not help but worry.
"Alyx has used his killer move. Fade..."
On the other hand, Talmon's expression was as dark as ink as he stopped Yarrow and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, Fade is not so weak. I believe that this little trick can't kill him."
"But..." Yarrow calmed down a little, but his expression was still full of worry.
At the same time, Natalia and Eevlyne were equally worried.
Meanwhile, the candidates who dared not fight against Fade, such as Subhan, Tyreece, and Cayson, were smiling excitedly at that moment.
Masie frowned slightly and seemed to look a little regretful.
Whosh!
However, their surprise soon subsided.
Lucian gritted his teeth and glared at Fade as he said, "It's good that he's not dead yet. It would be merciful for him to die now. He killed my son. I want him to die in the hands of my family."
Cayson and Tyreece seemed a little regretful, but they didn't bother much about it.
After all, to them, Alyx was nothing special, so Fade barely had the qualification to stand alongside them after defeating him. However, they believed that Fade was no match for them.
On the other hand, Masie sighed in relief. A smile surfaced on the corner of her mouth as she softly muttered to herself, "He could kill Black Flame Python, who was at Stage 9 of Soul Refine Realm. I don't believe that he's so easy to kill."
At that moment, the referee announced the result of the match. Fade had won and successfully progressed as the last contestant to enter the finals.
The list of top ten candidates who would finally enter the final round of the martial arts competition was out.
Adrian and Subhan from the Loh family.
Cayson from Myriad Treasures Hall.
Tyreece, Saul, and Grant from South Van Academy's Martial Arts School were in the top three.
Uzair and Fade from the Gu family.
Masie, the mayor's daughter.
Finally, Kayne, a self learner, and a dark horse.
All ten of them were gathered together.
Now that the list was out, everyone started to discuss it again.
The Gu family was not satisfied with the list. After all, according to their expectations, of the five people they had sent to compete, at least Alyx, Uzair, and Beatrice would enter the finals.
Now, among the three people that they had expected, only Uzair had advanced to the finals. The other two were both eliminated. Hence, this was considered a miscalculation on their side.
Although Fade was considered one of the competitors from the Gu family, in their eyes, he was an outsider and should not be paid attention to.
Thus, almost all of the Gu family's hope fell on Uzair alone.
However, they were gratified that the Loh family's performance was only average, as this time, only Arian and Subgan had entered the finals. These two were only a little stronger than Alyx, but overall, they were still slightly weaker than Uzair.
Therefore, if the two families really fought against each other, Fade could help in the fight. Of course, to them, it was possible that Uzair could defeat the two on his own.
Unexpectedly, three people from South Van Academy qualified into the finals this time and became the faction with the most contestants. However, South Van Academy had always been neutral, so the Gu family was not worried about them.
Cayson and Masie each represented their own families, but they were the only representatives, so the Gu family thought there was no need to worry about them either.
However, Kayne, the self learner and black horse, was somewhat unexpected.
At this moment, many families had begun to inquire about Kayne' s background information and were ready to win him over.
The City Contest and the pre-match of the competition ended at this point.
