Chapter 724: Chapter 384: What Does the Second Most Beautiful Woman in the World Really Look Like?
Celestial Tao Fighting Arena.
Qin Gengyun stepped onto the Battle Platform.
His opponent was the Commanding Disciple of Feiyun Sect, Qiu Kai.
This person was dressed in a blue robe, handsome in appearance, with a mystical Long Sword sheathed on his back, from which wisps of red flames emanated.
"Senior Brother Qiu is so handsome!"
"Senior Brother Qiu, knock down that scumbag and bring honor to our Feiyun Sect!"
"Senior Brother Qiu, I love you!"
Liu Su chuckled: "Is he an idol?"
Xu Caihe said: "Junior Sister He, don’t you know? This Qiu Kai is rumored to be Feiyun Sect’s most handsome disciple, and he prides himself as the friend to all female cultivators, claiming to help them eliminate all heartless men!"
Liu Su was dumbfounded: "What kind of idiotic persona is this?"
At this moment, on the Battle Platform, Qiu Kai looked coldly at Qin Gengyun, his eyes filled with killing intent:
"He Zhiqiu, let me ask you, what is your relationship with the second-ranked Qiu Zhihe on the Beauty Ranking?"
Qin Gengyun was surprised: "Taoist Friend Qiu, why do you ask that?"
Qiu Kai responded coldly: "If you truly are Qin Gengyun, you are unworthy of being the husband to the world’s second beauty! I will ruin your cultivation; if you are merely He Zhiqiu, I will only defeat you with a light punishment!"
Qin Gengyun chuckled: "Who I am is none of your business, and my relationship with my beloved doesn’t concern you either."
"Ugh! Scumbag!"
Qiu Kai pointed at Qin Gengyun, righteously declaring:
"I have vowed to eliminate all heartless men for the female cultivators of the world! Having encountered you, a super scumbag, today I must act in the name of justice and rid the world of this menace!"
"If you want to avoid the ruin of your cultivation, prove immediately that you are He Zhiqiu and have nothing to do with Qin Gengyun!"
"Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"
"Courting death." Below the platform, Qiu Zhihe’s expression was icy.
If it wasn’t for the fact that this was a fair match, this person would have been crushed at this point.
On the Battle Platform, Qin Gengyun glanced back at Qiu Zhihe, who nodded coldly.
Qin Gengyun turned to Qiu Kai and suddenly laughed: "As you wish."
Suddenly, Qin Gengyun’s appearance rapidly changed, the somewhat pale and handsome face of He Zhiqiu swiftly transformed into a mature and resolute profile.
"Why has He Zhiqiu changed too?"
"Who is this person?"
Qin Gengyun cupped his hand toward Qiu Kai: "I am Qin Gengyun, Loose Cultivator of Yunling Town!"
Wow!
The Celestial Tao Fighting Arena was suddenly in uproar:
"Qin Gengyun! Husband to the world’s second beauty!"
"Qin Gengyun has come; where is Qiu Zhihe?"
"I want to see the charm of the Lotus Fairy!"
"Is Qiu Zhihe among those ladies accompanying Qin Gengyun?"
In an instant, countless gazes shifted from Qin Gengyun to Qiu Zhihe, Liu Su, and Xu Caihe.
Xu Caihe quickly waved her hand: "I—I am not, don’t look at me like that!"
Liu Su waved at the surroundings with a playful smile, acting as if she were the great beauty.
Qiu Zhihe remained aloof and indifferent, paying no mind to the curious and frenzied looks aimed at her.
She only gazed at the Battle Platform with a calm expression: "Finish quickly."
"Alright!"
Qin Gengyun responded, stretched out his hand, and a dark iron staff suddenly appeared in his palm, swinging down toward Qiu Kai.
Qiu Kai, who had intended to speak, was caught off guard by Qin Gengyun’s move and hurriedly drew the Long Sword from his back to block.
The iron staff suddenly transformed into a massive weight like a towering tree, crashing down with thunderous force.
"What the hell!"
Qiu Kai was shocked and had no time to change moves, forcing him to grit his teeth and defend.
Boom!
With a loud crash, Qiu Kai was driven to one knee, the protective array below the platform cracking under the pressure.
"Heaven-Reaching Staff?!"
"Isn’t this the legendary weapon lost by Zhenyang Sect for hundreds of years?"
"How is it in Qin Gengyun’s hand?"
"Is this person the secret weapon cultivated by Zhenyang Sect?"
"Given the legendary weapon and the affection of Fairy Xiyue, could Qin Gengyun be a future Sect Leader?"
Many cultivators recognized the Heaven-Reaching Staff and began to exclaim and speculate.
But the most shocked was Qiu Kai, whose body was gradually crushed into the platform by the staff, teeth clenching.
"Ah!!"
Qiu Kai roared, unleashing a burst of red flames from his body, stunningly pushing the Heaven-Reaching Staff aside.
Seizing the opportunity, he flew out from the pit, floating in mid-air, surrounded by fire; even his hair had turned red.
"This is the Feiyun Sect’s Forbidden Technique, the Red Flame Technique!"
"Rumor has it that no one has mastered it in centuries, yet Qiu Kai has achieved Great Success!"
"The Red Flame Technique incinerates all, known as the strongest Fire Series cultivation technique in the world; once mastered, none can resist!"
"Feiyun Sect appears to be full of hidden talents! Qiu Kai has already surpassed Zheng Mulin, hasn’t he?"
"Senior Brother Qiu looks so handsome!"
"Flame Technique?" Qin Gengyun glanced at the fiery Qiu Kai in mid-air, his expression curious, kindly reminding him:
"Taoist Friend Qiu, are you sure you want to use a Fire Series Cultivation Technique to compete with me?"
Qiu Kai laughed loudly: "The scumbag is scared? Watch me fight for those fairies harmed by you and expose your true nature to Fairy Qiu!"
Saying this, the red flames on his body erupted, transforming into a giant fire serpent that lunged at Qin Gengyun!
Qin Gengyun chuckled helplessly: "Such a victory would be undeserved."
In a flash, he too was enveloped in flames, not only red but also tinged with golden hues.
As if draped in a golden cloak!
"Qin Gengyun can use a Fire Series cultivation technique too?!"
"Why is the color of his flames so peculiar?"
"Could it be..."
The cultivators in the stands gasped, quickly going wide-eyed in astonishment.
They watched as the massive fire serpent sent by Qiu Kai collided with Qin Gengyun but remained motionless, silently absorbed into the flames surrounding Qin Gengyun.
As though it had been devoured.
"What, what is happening?"
Qiu Kai froze, then realized:
"Could it be... Divine Phoenix Flame?!"
Many knowledgeable cultivators in the stands also showed shock:
"Divine Phoenix Flame?!"
"It’s the Divine Phoenix Flame!"
"Impossible, isn’t the Divine Phoenix Flame only attainable by the Celestial Phoenix Maiden of the Phoenix Race?"
"Isn’t it necessary to awaken ancient bloodlines completely and transform into the Divine Phoenix to possess it?"
"How could a man like Qin Gengyun possess the Divine Phoenix Flame?!"
Many recalled something and turned their gazes toward the Celestial Phoenix Maiden in the stands.
"That Phoenix Bird Beast seems to be Qin Gengyun’s ride! Did he visit Celestial Phoenix Mountain and encounter a miraculous event?"
"Damn, this guy not only married multiple fairies but also obtained Divine Phoenix Flame, my eyes are green with envy!"
The stands were in uproar, while Qin Gengyun on the Battle Platform moved without delay, igniting the Sunflame Cloak, lifting the Heaven-Reaching Staff, and leaping into the air, striking down toward Qiu Kai.
Qiu Kai’s flames were controlled by the Divine Phoenix Flame, rendering him immobile, only able to watch helplessly as the Heaven-Reaching Staff fell.
Boom!
With a loud crash, the handsome and dashing Qiu Kai was hammered into the Battle Platform, raising a hand with difficulty:
"I—I surrender, stop hitting me."
The referee watched Qin Gengyun, engulfed in Divine Phoenix Flame, pause before loudly announcing:
"In the third match of twelve to six, Zhenyang Sect... ah no, Loose Cultivator Qin Gengyun of Yunling Town versus Feiyun Sect’s Qiu Kai, Qin Gengyun wins!"
In the ensuing silence, the referee’s murmur echoed across the venue:
"Has Qiu Zhihe arrived? I really want to see what the world’s second beauty looks like!"
