Dragon King Hall's Legend

Chapter 1776 1776: The Sixth Round Begins! Facing Chu Xin!

Mu Jinyu's manipulations against Chu Huannian were quite concealed, even Wang Yeqing didn't notice.

Everyone just thought Chu Huannian's severe injury was a result of his final showdown with Mu Jinyu.

Moreover, since Chu Huannian could still speak and didn't accuse Mu Jinyu, naturally, no one pursued Mu Jinyu for it.

Mu Jinyu took out some healing pills, feeding them to her while stabilizing her internal injuries. He whispered to her, "Alright, you originally came here to watch the battles. You've fought a few battles yourself, and that's enough. Just watch the next ones properly. After this tournament ends, I'll help you change back."

Chu Huannian looked at Mu Jinyu with resentment and murmured back, "Why do you have to do this? Even though the opponents here are indeed strong, I wasn't certain of victory either, but I wouldn't be injured to this extent. Why make me like this?"

Mu Jinyu replied through a whisper, "Didn't you notice Chu Xin's gaze? If he meets you next, he will definitely choose like I did, to ensure others have fewer chances to win against you, giving him more confidence to secure the final slot."

"Alright then."

Chu Huannian turned her head arduously and saw Chu Xin's eyes like they were about to shoot fire. She realized Mu Jinyu wasn't wrong and felt relieved.

Moments ago, she was fighting with fervor and didn't want to just spectate as planned, wanting to continue to participate.

Now that it's like this, she might as well rest and watch.

Continuously consuming Mu Jinyu's blood essence to heal and adjust her state was indeed a burden on him.

So Chu Huannian didn't insist on Mu Jinyu tending to her.

On the contrary, she started to think it's actually good this way.

She participated in four rounds of combat. Got a bye in the first round, won against Su Yiran in the second, and also won with difficulty against Li Yun in the third.

Finally, in the fourth round, she lost to Mu Jinyu.

She didn't give others an easy victory but only lost to Mu Jinyu and then couldn't fight anymore. It was indeed the best choice.

No more cheap wins for others.

"Boom!!"

At this moment, with someone sent flying, severely injured and down, the last battle of the last arena ended.

After the instructor announced the results.

Wang Yeqing, upon checking Chu Huannian's condition, confirmed she couldn't continue fighting.

Allowed her to watch from the sidelines.

And the upcoming fights, naturally, no one had the privilege to rest and skip.

This made many who hadn't had a bye turn their resentful eyes towards Mu Jinyu, thinking he was too despicable.

Not only did he alone share Chu Huannian's victory, but he also left them no chance to rest and adjust.

"Fifth round: Mu Jinyu versus Li Yun, Chu Xin versus..."

Quickly, Wang Yeqing announced the fifth round of battles.

Mu Jinyu faced Li Yun, who had lost all previous battles, ultimately losing to Chu Huannian.

By hearing the name Li Yun, one would know she was a woman, but her appearance was not attractive, her features were ordinary, skin somewhat dark, face resolute, yet not burly.

"Please!"

Although Li Yun kept losing, her attitude hadn't completely collapsed.

Facing Mu Jinyu, she still politely greeted him.

"Please!"

Mu Jinyu also cupped his hands and returned the greeting to Li Yun.

"Battle start!"

Wang Yeqing wasted no words and let them begin the fifth round of combat directly.

As his words fell, the seven battle arenas erupted in fierce combat immediately.

But with no chance to catch a breath and many having been injured over the five rounds.

Thus, in just one minute, several people had already lost.

Like Su Yiran, like Li Yun.

"Thank you for letting me off lightly."

Mu Jinyu was confident he could defeat Li Yun with one move, but he thought it unnecessary and disrespectful, so he lingered for a bit before defeating her.

"Thank you for holding back."

Li Yun obviously knew Mu Jinyu's strength should allow him to defeat her faster, even severely injure her like Chu Huannian, rendering her unable to continue.

But he didn't do that, which made her feel grateful.

"Hmph!"

After Mu Jinyu defeated Li Yun, Chu Xin also easily defeated his opponent, coldly gazed at Mu Jinyu, and snorted, indicating his displeasure.

After several rounds of battles, only he and Mu Jinyu remained undefeated.

Whether it was Li Yi or Zhao Qi, each had lost one or two matches.

So he already regarded Mu Jinyu as his top adversary.

Although knowing that Mu Jinyu couldn't lose to Li Yun, he still harbored unrealistic fantasies, hoping that before falling, Li Yun could deplete some of Mu Jinyu's origin source.

But Mu Jinyu defeated Li Yun in just one minute, obviously without depleting much origin source, which disappointed him.

As the battles continue, he knew he would soon have a real clash with Mu Jinyu.

Now, Chu Xin lacked the initial confidence when he first met Mu Jinyu and believed he could easily bring him down.

He hoped he could meet Mu Jinyu later, after Mu Jinyu faced the stronger opponents and depleted some origin source, increasing his chances of victory.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

Soon, the fifth round of battles ended.

Li Yi lost another match, tallying three losses now.

Basically, he was out of contention for the final slot.

This made Zhao Donglai's face very displeased.

After all, when Ji Fei died, he strongly supported Li Yi, wanting him to inherit Ji Fei's qualifications.

But seeing Li Yi's current performance, it really was unworthy of his strong support.

There were several others who could no longer continue after consecutive intense fights.

Some of them fought Mu Jinyu, some hadn't yet.

Anyway, with them unable to fight anymore, some were bound to suffer losses.

However, for those who continued to maintain victory, they wouldn't mind much.

"Sixth round: Mu Jinyu versus Chu Xin, Li Yi versus..."

Seeing these people's injuries, Wang Yeqing, like Chu Huannian, was unable to continue fighting. He immediately announced the sixth round of battles.

With several more withdrawing, the sixth round only had five battle arenas left, not seven.

And Mu Jinyu finally faced Chu Xin, who had been undefeated so far.

Their clash this round essentially determined whoever won would, as long as they maintained the lead, secure the final victory.

Since, besides them, everyone else had at least one loss.

Unless Mu Jinyu and Chu Xin's fight ended in mutual destruction, causing Mu Jinyu to lose, and Chu Xin lost the next match to someone else.

Such a scenario could level the score, creating suspense over the final slot once more.

Therefore, Zhao Qi and another intermediate student who had only one loss were very eager for Mu Jinyu and Chu Xin's fight to end in mutual destruction!

That way, they would have another chance to compete for the slot.
