He was so nervous because he thought Wei Jiaming had committed a foul. Moreover, using the exploding crystal would put Wu Mo in a dangerous situation.

Therefore, he could not tolerate it.

As soon as Gao Yue said that, the butler across the ring, with his hands behind his back, sternly shouted, “Last week, our side already explained the rules clearly!

...

“The defensive equipment is supposed to be tested in actual combat, so there will inevitably be situations of offense and defense. The offensive nature of the exploding crystal is naturally included. Unless you admit defeat now, don’t even think about stopping the match!”

The Wei family’s butler’s tone was imposing and forceful as he enunciated each word.

That instantly made Manager Gao anxious. He opened his mouth… but he could not speak for a long time.

At that moment, the exploding crystal followed a parabolic trajectory and smashed onto the stage floor.

Wu Mo raised his cloak to cover his entire body with haste.

He did not know what kind of magic damage was hidden within the exploding crystal, but for the sake of his safety, he took a defensive stance at the next second.

Then, he heard a bang.

The exploding crystal smashed onto the ground, and the crystal fragments immediately flew in all directions.

At the same time, a series of sizzling sounds could be heard.

The spectators saw a wave of milky white smoke suddenly appear on the stage, and the smoke was rapidly wrapping Wu Mo up.

“It’s a smoke spell. It looks like Unique Treasure Hall has been preparing for a long time.”

“Although it isn’t fatal, it’ll cause those who are affected by the smoke to lose their sight for a short period of time. I’m afraid that the cloaked contestant will no longer be able to dodge accurately.”

“D*mn it, he actually made such a move. Although that cloak has incredibly high defense, it’s impossible for him to block the smoke’s erosion.”

The surrounding spectators began to discuss the situation, and they felt sorry for Wu Mo.

Once he lost his sight, the subsequent outcome would be obvious.

Below the stage, Gao Yue’s gaze was fixed on the milky white smoke. His entire body was tense and straight. His fists were tightly clenched, and he did not even notice that his nails had pierced through his flesh.

The two old men also seemed dejected. They felt that under such circumstances, Wu Mo would not be able to win.

Just as everyone thought that the match was about to end and the blacksmith named Wu Mo was about to be finished, a white light shot out of the ball of smoke in the arena.

At the next moment, a strong wind seemed to blow the smoke that enveloped the area away, and it disappeared without a trace.

The Mercury Cloak’s additional skill, Purification, had been successfully activated.

Wu Mo instantly felt the burning pain in his eyes disappear. His vision, which had been blocked by the thick fog, became increasingly clear too.

“Resorting to unsavory tricks to ensure victory truly is the Wei family’s style.”

The corners of Wu Mo’s mouth curled up a little before he waved his cloak lightly and spoke in a mocking tone.

Wei Jiaming, who was also in the arena, suddenly widened his eyes.

He looked at Wu Mo in disbelief. He could not imagine what the other party had done to actually make the fog disappear.

His father had given him the exploding crystals from the warehouse to ensure that he would have a 100% chance of winning this competition.

Wei Jiaming had originally thought that he could use his marksmanship to beat his opponent into a sorry state like a dog. However, not only was he matched in strength, but he was also inferior to his opponent.

He did not manage to do anything to that trash, Wu Mo, despite his use of the exploding crystals. His eyes turned red, as he could not accept the results.

Even the two Four-star cultivators protecting Wei Ying found the events before them as absurd as Wei Jiaming did.

If they had been in the arena, they would not have been able to deal with the smoke-filled exploding crystals so easily. Furthermore, Wu Mo was only a blacksmith, and he did not have any spirit energy in his body. How could he do such a thing?

Unless… It was the equipment’s effect that dispelled the smoke, and not his own doing.

Thinking of this, the two cultivators looked at Wu Mo with greed in their eyes.

They knew how valuable an equipment with extremely strong defense and the ability to dispel smoke was.

Moreover, the cloak was compatible with their armor. If it was paired with the Soft Golden Silk Armor, it would probably make them invincible among cultivators of the same level.

As that occurred to them, their hearts became filled with excitement.

However, the battle on the stage was not over.

Due to the rage in his heart, Wei Jiaming had lost his ability to think rationally. He did not stop and threw a second exploding crystal out.

Then, he fiercely kicked his right leg back and jumped high into the air. His spear was like a dragon, piercing through the second crystal that was still in midair.

“I don’t believe that you can resist the deceleration poison.”

Wei Jiaming gritted his teeth and roared. The moment the crystal was pierced, the bluish-purple mucus inside sprayed out in Wu Mo’s direction.

Wei Jiaming had carefully selected this crystal in the warehouse, so he was clear about its effects.

Pharmacists had refined the poison after several times of purification, and it could quickly affect anyone who came into contact with it. Those who were poisoned would fall into a state of slow motion.

They would move at half their regular speed and agility.

It was difficult for cultivators or ordinary people to get rid of this poison in a short period of time after coming into contact with it.

Moreover, there would be facing life-threatening dangers. Therefore, the price of deploying a crystal with the deceleration poison was extremely high. Even the large Wei family had less than ten of these crystals.

If it were not for this bet, Wei Jiaming would not have willingly used such a good item to deal with a piece of trash like Wu Mo.

“You’re dead!”

Seeing that the bluish-purple slime was about to splash onto Wu Mo, a cruel smile formed on Wei Jiaming’s face.

Just when he thought that the competition was coming to an end, a white light flashed around Wu Mo.

The crowd raised their gaze and noticed that the bluish-purple poison had quickly contaminated more than half of the arena.

However, the ground near Wu Mo had been completely purified and cleared.

He did not sustain the slightest damage from the poison.

Looking at the ground that had been corroded into a black mess, the killing intent on Wu Mo’s face grew even stronger.

He had made a decision in his heart. After this competition was over, he would find an opportunity to get rid of Wei Jiaming.

As for the Wei family, if they dared to encroach on his interests in the future, he would definitely not let them off easily.

Wu Mo’s sharp gaze seemed to pierce Wei Jiaming’s soul, and he immediately snapped out of his shock.

He looked at the unharmed Wu Mo with an ashen face and made the final decision in his heart.

“Why aren’t you dead yet? I’ll fight it out with you to the very end!”
