The second round of the competition featured one-on-one duels, narrowing the field from forty contestants down to twenty.
As the matches progressed, the atmosphere in the martial arts arena reached a fever pitch. Even those who had been eliminated in the first round were swept up in the excitement, shouting and cheering.
BANG!
With another thud, a figure toppled from the battle stage, ending the fight.
The next match: Ye Rou versus Ye Qing.
Stepping onto the battle stage, Ye Qing called out to Ye Rou, "Sister Rou, I ask for your guidance."
"Then be careful."
Ye Rou gave a slight nod and launched the first attack.
Ye Rou didn't use the Grand Emperor's Bow of Destruction. Instead, she produced a small, exquisite cyan bow—a Fifth-Grade Spiritual Artifact. As she channeled her True Qi into it, the bow blazed with a brilliant cyan light, radiating a sharp, cutting aura.
Moving swiftly, she fired a beam of cyan light straight at Ye Qing.
"Hah!"
