“Miss Lu, with your Dantian sealed, if you are confident to survive on this island, I will not stop you, ha ha.” Qin Wushuang laughed and didn’t make another move. He lifted up his feet to walk away like a gentleman.

Lu Qingchuan chattered her teeth in anger, “Qin Wushuang, you are despicable! You are shameless!”

However when she spoke these words, she did not have the courage of this conviction. Despicable and shameless… A moment ago, dealing with the Qin Clan was all she could think about.

When faced with the world, in the end you will always face reality…

Despite swearing, she did not dare to let down her guard. Taking out the transportation jade plate, she snarled with anger and then activated it with great unwillingness. Although her Dantian was sealed, she still had a little remaining power to activate the plate.

In the midst of her anger and despair, a burst of divine light took her out.

Not too far away, Qin Wushuang watched Lu Qingchuan get sent out. He gave a slight sigh. “Despicable… Perhaps in the martial artist world, besides hot-blooded battle, one would always need to rely on some wit and technique. If this is called despicable, then let it be despicable… For my family, for a better survival of my loved ones, I must get the Supreme Dao Fruit!”

Upon thinking here, Qin Wushuang pulled open the Observant Finger Jade Plate. Yet, he realized that Ling Tianzhi and Jiang Kui were already rushing towards the direction of Qin Taichong at a rapid speed.

Up to this point, Qin Wushuang was rather undisturbed. With Lu Qingchuan out, it meant the top four people were determined. He had made the correct gamble.

Even if he and Senior Brother Taichong were to get disqualified immediately, they would be third and fourth place. They could still take the Supreme Dao Fruits in their sack!

However, Qin Wushuang’s goal was not just this. Next, he would fight for the championship and for another Supreme Dao Fruit!

…

In the end, Qin Taichong was defeated.

He was defeated when he was fighting with Ling Tianzhi.

However to Qin Taichong’s surprise, he learned that after being disqualified, one had been disqualified before him. In other words, Qin Taichong was the fourth place winner.

When he was transported out, Qin Taichong still did not know that Lu Qingchuan was already disqualified. Feeling incredibly remorseful, he walked out with disappointment.

Yet he saw the disciples of the Qin clan coming up to greet him with a grinning smile.

“Senior Brother, congratulations!”

“Ha ha, what is there to celebrate? I am only one step away from that Supreme Dao Fruit reward. Ah, but I do accept my defeat, that Ling Tianzhi is too powerful. Ha ha.” Qin Taichong had seen through things.

“What? One step away?” Qin Hao cried out, “Supreme Dao Fruit, you are fourth place, you will get the Supreme Dao Fruit!”

“I… am fourth?” Qin Taichong was somewhat stupefied. He was defeated by Ling Tianzhi on the first day. Qin Taichong had certainly felt that he was the earliest one to be eliminated.

“Yes, you still didn’t know, Senior Brother?” Qin Hongyan also laughed. “An hour before you, Lu Qingchuan of the Flying Rainbow Daoist Sect was defeated. As soon as this Lu Qingchuan got out, she swore at Qin Wushuang. It seems Junior Brother Wushuang had disqualified her.”

“Eh? This way, unconsciously, I got fourth?” Qin Taichong felt that he was very lucky.

He had already gained a great fortune to make it to the top five. It was even more of a surprise to make it to the top four.

Qin Yunran walked over with laughter. “Taichong, this time you are really lucky and all thanks to Wushuang. It seems Wushuang is truly our deputy general. Ha ha, top three, now let’s see how they fight over for top three!”

…

Inside the ninth island, Qin Wushuang observed the Observant Finger Jade Plate and knew that Senior Brother Taichong had already been kicked out. He felt rather helpless.

Ling Tianzhi was extremely close to Senior Brother Taichong. Unless he could shift instantly, there was no way for him to make it. However, with Senior Brother Taichong making it to the top four, he had accomplished his mission by surpassing his expectations. Although Qin Wushuang felt somewhat regretful, he did not feel sad. “Since this Ling Tianzhi defeated Senior Brother Taichong, then let me defeat him…” he promised.

Qin Wushuang was filled with expectations of this championship.

Top three, it would be a struggle to fight over the final three places.

Indeed, the terrain of the ninth island was more complicated and there were more appearances of vicious beasts. Fortunately, Qin Wushuang had spiritual beasts at the Peak of the Common Mysterious who could help protect him. In addition to the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings, it allowed him to deal with many situations with ease.

Apparently, that Ling Tianzhi and Jiang Kui were also incredibly cautious.

Now, with Qin Taichong out, the remaining elite warriors would compete in a superior battle. The mutual understanding between each other had dissolved. Now, they would be focused to fight over for the championship and defeat other opponents.

One must say that Ling Tianzhi and Jiang Kui were incredibly smart. Initially, they thought four people were left in the competition. Yet after a few days, they had vividly realized that it seems Lu Qingchuan was already disqualified.

This had caused them to be full of vigilance against Qin Wushuang. From the beginning, they felt Qin Wushuang was powerful and not ordinary. Yet as the battle kept progressing, they had realized how terrifying Qin Wushuang actually was. Zhu Yunyan and Lu Qingchuan were people on the same level as them. Since Qin Wushuang had disqualified them both, one could imagine his strength.

Therefore, Ling Tianzhi and Jiang Kui were abnormally careful. This way, when Qin Wushuang wanted to use the Observant Finger Jade Plate to approach them, he could not seize any opportunities. The defense line of these two were set up well. For the time being, it was not easy to break through.

These two were incredibly genuine as they were able to make it to the top three. They would attack and defend at the most appropriate times and would never advance prematurely.

Although they were incredibly unwilling, they had to admit that before domineering Qin Wushuang they must carry out defensive positions. Only this way, they would have the hope to rise above others.

They would not have a chance when fighting Qin Wushuang. Zhu Yunyan and Lu Qingchuan had clearly proved this point.

Such practical tactics had made Qin Wushuang feel somewhat worried. If they were to drag it out for a long period of time, most likely that Jiang Kui and Ling Tianzhi would also form a mutual understanding.

Even with the help of the spiritual beasts, certainly Qin Wushuang could not make it by dealing with two people at the Peak of the Common Mysterious Stage at the same time.

In fact, Qin Wushuang had used his battle strategy adequately when dealing with one. Just relying force perhaps Qin Wushuang could win, but he might not kick out the other party.

If the other party would not fight stubbornly and chose to evade, there was nothing he could do.

He fought Xin Wuji because he had underestimated his enemy and he had caught him off guard.

He was able to disqualify Zhu Yunyan because he thought himself to be clever and pretended to be Qin Taichong to trick him. On the contrary, Qin Wushuang had used this tactic and defeated him at once.

When dealing with Lu Qingchuan, he had used a strategy to confuse her.

Each battle had its own unique characteristics and he had not won by solely relying on absolute strength.

The success of each battle had factors that could not be duplicated.

Jiang Kui and Ling Tianzhi were all at the Peak of the Common Mysterious Stage. Once they were set on staying in a defensive position, their powerful strength was incredibly apparent.

Each time when Qin Wushuang approached their circle of defense, he would set up their defense formation and startle the other party.

During a few attempts, Qin Wushuang had given up midway.

After having tried two times, Qin Wushuang had learned his lesson. He pondered, “It seems these two are already cautious of me and are staying in their turtle shell. It’s really not easy to deal with them. I can use the Observant Finger Jade Plate to lock onto their location or I can use the sealed spiritual beasts to attack them together. Yet it’s tough to approach their defensive circle. Initially, I was able to approach Lu Qingchuan because she was not very cautious and overly confident. Now, the situation is completely different…”

Qin Wushuang was also incredibly frustrated. He knew that he already almost used all of his trump cards. Indeed, he would not have much left to offer when facing an elite warrior at the Peak of the Common Mysterious Stage who were determined to defend one another.

“Perhaps, these two guys plan to drag this out with me and try out our luck at the tenth island?” In fact, Qin Wushuang had not wanted to enter the tenth island.

It was because earlier when he had entered the ninth island, a voice had reminded them that the tenth island would be the most difficult and the one with the highest degree of danger. It was because there would be divine beasts!

With divine beasts, regardless of their level, it would not be something these elite warriors beneath the Supreme Dao Stage would be able to fight off. Therefore, Qin Wushuang had an urgency to finish the battle while at the ninth island.

If Jiang Kui and Ling Tianzhi were not determined and started to play hunting games with Qin Wushuang, Qin Wushuang would have the confidence to mingle among the fish and take out these two at the ninth island.

However, the other party was incredibly cunning. With Lu Qingchuan and Zhu Yunyan’s experience, it allowed them to choose very practical tactics as they would not even play games with Qin Wushuang.

Time had passed quietly like this. Qin Wushuang had tried approaching them four times. Regardless if it was Jiang Kui or Ling Tianzhi, they were incredibly keen. They would not even allow Qin Wushuang to approach them as they would run away before he did. Qin Wushuang had also thought about the tactic of surrounding them.

Regardless if he used the Swallowing Sky Lion Dragon or the Dark Mysterious Snake, they were only at the Peak of the Common Mysterious. Under a situation where there were no divine weapons, they did not have a one hundred percent guarantee to defend an opening and prevent them from breaking out.

Therefore, Qin Wushuang’s previous four tries had all failed.

When he calculated the time, it had already been twenty-seven days at the ninth island. In another three days, they would reach the time limit.

As soon as time was up, they would get sent to the island of the fourth level and enter the tenth island to face that legendary divine beast.

At the territory occupied by the divine beast, Qin Wushuang’s numerous advantages would turn into nothing. Before a divine beast, his power would be completely useless. One could only compare and see who would be more fortunate. Whoever could hold out the longest, who could promise not to get discovered by the divine beast?

Qin Wushuang decided to try one more time. In the last or four times, regardless, he must not leave any regrets. This time, he decided to make a move against Ling Tianzhi.

If it was possible, he would use the Graceful Spiritual Bow!

Currently, the Supreme Dao Five Elemental Talismans were already used up. Just by using the Graceful Spiritual Bow alone, Qin Wushuang did not have one hundred percent security in shooting Ling Tianzhi.

To be honest, Qin Wushuang did not wish to use the Graceful Spiritual Bow. It was because once an elite warrior possessed a Supreme Dao weapon, it would be enough to destroy the green jade arrow.

Qin Wushuang had experienced this fully when he had fought Xin Wuji. Now, only two green jade arrows were left. Of course, Qin Wushuang was not willing to risk it.

However, up to this point, he was not willing to waste anymore! Heading to the tenth island to face the divine beast was something Qin Wushuang would never be willing to face!

The final battle must be finished within this ninth island!
