Chapter 2199: Let’s Not Talk About Principles

Prince Wu Qing looked at the last five cultivators of the top ten: Kong Ming, Jiu Ling Huang, Mara, Zhou Rong Man, and Lin Feng .

Prince Wu Qing knew how strong Saint Tianhun was, but he hadn’t posed a threat to Kong Ming . Therefore Kong Ming was extremely strong . Prince Wu Qing didn’t need to think about Kong Ming for the time being .

Jiu Ling Huang had defeated Wu Ya Zi, one of the First Masters of the Continent of the Nine Clouds .

Mara had a king-type body, he was an a.s.sa.s.sin and he was terrifying, but his achievements were not that amazing .

Zhou Rong Man hadn’t achieved great things either, but he was a hidden evil . Each time he fought, he crushed people easily and Prince Wu Qing knew what that meant: Zhou Rong Man looked weird, but he was extremely strong .

Lin Feng had defeated one of the Continent of the Nine Clouds’ First Masters, Ni Cang, which meant that he was extremely strong too . The crowd hadn’t antic.i.p.ated that those three people would end up in the top ten .

Therefore, Prince Wu Qing chose to fight against Mara . Among the cultivators of the top ten, was there anyone who was weaker than someone who had a king-type body? No . Some of them were even stronger . Therefore, Prince Wu Qing didn’t take the body into consideration . Even though Mara was a terrifying a.s.sa.s.sin, his Three Thousand Deadly Technique wasn’t weak, either .

The other eight cultivators moved away . Prince Wu Qing looked at Mara . Mara stood up and slowly walked forwards . Gradually, the atmosphere became dark, turning into a colorless world . Mara then disappeared into it eerily .

Prince Wu Qing released Emotionless intent, and emotionless lights emerged . They looked like dazzling swords surrounding him . Prince Wu Qing closed his eyes . He didn’t need his eyes when fighting against Mara . Mara was the King of Shadows!

n.o.body attacked for a while . Prince Wu Qing’s eyes were closed, and he looked calm and composed . Sometimes, some threads of energies appeared around him, but he didn’t allow himself to think about anything else .

Nothing could affect him . Emotionlessness Dao was a great path . Of course, it was a distinctive doctrine, Prince Wu Qing was actually quite focused and determined .

Finally, some lights appeared in the darkness and moved towards Prince Wu Qing’s throat invisibly fast .

Prince Wu Qing remained motionless . Emotionless Intent floated around him and hummed . Swords cut the air . Prince Wu Qing moved slightly, and then rose up into the air .

The deadly lights accelerated . Mara reappeared .

“Opportunity!” Mara’s eyes glittered . Prince Wu Qing was already extremely fast, and his attacks were extremely fast . However, he knew he couldn’t dodge this attack . He had to be careful .

The lights accelerated and turned into swords, then pierced through Prince Wu Qing’s chest . The crowd couldn’t even follow the lights with their eyes, they were too fast . What was going on? Prince Wu Qing couldn’t withstand a single attack?

When Mara saw his energies piercing through Prince Wu Qing’s body, he didn’t look delighted at all; his attack had pierced through, but Prince Wu Qing wasn’t injured at all . For an a.s.sa.s.sin, the most important thing was to strike fast and to defeat one’s opponent in one strike . However, he had failed to do that!

He now sensed danger!

At the exact moment when he attacked Prince Wu Qing, Prince Wu Qing had also released a sharp sword which flashed towards his opponent . It was so fast that even Mara, an a.s.sa.s.sin, didn’t have time to see it . However, his intuition told him that he couldn’t dodge, he had to strike back .

Emotionless Intent penetrated into his body and turned into Three Thousand Threads of Emotionlessness Strength .

Emotionless Intent penetrated into his body and turned into Three Thousand Threads of Emotionlessness Strength .

“Die!” shouted Mara furiously . He also released even more energies . Prince Wu Qing was crazy, Mara had to be crazy, too .

Terrifying lights moved towards Mara, his face turned paled . He retreated, but the Three Thousand Deadly Technique condensed and turned into a hurricane, able to destroy everything in its way .

Suddenly, Mara penetrated into the darkness again . But there were rumbles of energies in conflict, and Mara reappeared . Blood splashed away, his face was deathly pale as he fell to the ground .

Prince Wu Qing coughed, he was also bleeding . The short battle was astonis.h.i.+ng . Prince Wu Qing was really emotionless, he didn’t even really care about himself!

“Mara is an a.s.sa.s.sin who hides and strikes . His abilities have reached the peak of perfection . However, he’s not good when it comes to direct combat . Prince Wu Qing is stronger than him in close combat,” sighed the crowd . Prince Wu Qing was crazy . He knew that defeating Mara in the darkness was dangerous . He had taken a big risk, letting Mara reappear and attack him to strike back more easily . Even though he was ready, he was still injured .

Prince Wu Qing’s silhouette flickered; he landed in front of Mara and asked, “Shall we continue fighting?”

Mara’s face was bloodless . When he saw Prince Wu Qing was covered with blood, he said coldly, “You’re insane… but I lost . ”

Prince Wu Qing turned around and went back to where he had been seated, then closed his eyes . He looked so emotionless that people were scared of him .

The duel had last for only a few minutes . However, it was difficult to forget such a battle!

“Mara, Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, tenth!” The crowd looked at Mara . He had lost, so now he ranked tenth .

“Mara, Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, tenth!” The crowd looked at Mara . He had lost, so now he ranked tenth .

According to the rules, it was now Chu Chun Qiu’s turn, he ranked fourth .

Chu Chun Qiu stepped forwards . He hadn’t fought in the previous round . n.o.body had challenged him .

—

“That’s Chu Chun Qiu, he’s King Chu’s descendant . I’ve heard that after King Chu, there have been two incredible cultivators in the history of their family . The first one was Chu the Insane, he absorbed many people’s wills, and because of that, many strong cultivators had encircled him . People thought he had died, but apparently, he reappeared in the Moon Palace .

“After him, the second most outstanding cultivator of the Chu Clan in history is Chu Chun Qiu . He used to be discreet, but when he became a high-level emperor, he started showing his true colors . He’s not yet as insane as Chu The Insane . However, he’s just as frightening,” explained someone in G.o.dly Clouds City . Everybody already knew who those people in the top ten were . People even knew that Chu Chun Qiu studied at Celestial G.o.dly University and that Lin Feng studied at Champion University .

“I wonder whom Chu Chun Qiu is going to challenge . With his strength, he can probably eliminate anyone,” said someone .

—

Chu Chun Qiu glanced at the others and smiled coldly . He was looking at Prince Wu Qing . The crowd was stupefied . Hua Qing Feng had said that those in the top five could challenge those in the second half of the top ten .

But at that moment, Chu Chun Qiu was looking at the Dark Night Region’s First Master, Prince Wu Qing!

Prince Wu Qing opened his eyes and stopped resting . He looked emotionless .

“This battle is not necessary . Prince Wu Qing, the Dark Night Region’s First Master, can rank ninth . Of course, from today, you don’t deserve being called the First Master of the Dark Night Region anymore,” said Chu Chun Qiu calmly .

Prince Wu Qing opened his eyes and stopped resting . He looked emotionless .

“This battle is not necessary . Prince Wu Qing, the Dark Night Region’s First Master, can rank ninth . Of course, from today, you don’t deserve being called the First Master of the Dark Night Region anymore,” said Chu Chun Qiu calmly .

Many people were stupefied . Chu Chun Qiu had no principles!

Prince Wu Qing had just fought, and was severely injured . He had defeated Mara, and now Chu Chun Qiu was trying to obtain an easy victory .

Hua Qing Feng was surprised and said, “He’s injured . Challenging him is unfair, and it gives you an advantage in the compet.i.tion . ”

“It’s the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds, those who are eliminated finish at the bottom of the rankings . Your principles are not my principles,” said Chu Chun Qiu to Hua Qing Feng calmly, “You’re in first position right now, but your principles don’t correspond to mine . When it’s your turn, you can challenge me if you wis.h.!.+”

Chu Chun Qiu sounded calm, composed, and aggressive at the same time . Hua Qing Feng’s principles weren’t his principles, so he didn’t care about them . He wanted an easy victory . And n.o.body thought Chu Chun Qiu was acting like a coward, because he had told Hua Qing Feng he could challenge him if he wanted .

“He has no principles,” thought the people looking at Chu Chun Qiu . n.o.body doubted his strength though . It was just his personality .

“Will you fight or not?” Chu Chun Qiu asked Prince Wu Qing .

Prince Wu Qing looked annoyed as he glanced back at Chu Chun Qiu . Just when the crowd thought he was going to go crazy and burst out angrily, he actually looked quite calm as he said, “I’m out . ”

After that, he closed his eyes . He was emotionless, how could he be angry? Chu Chun Qiu didn’t make him angry . All these people were extraordinary . They all had their own principles . He was out because he had been careless, it was his fault . But now he knew he had lost and accepted the truth .

In the top ten, now Mara ranked tenth and Prince Wu Qing ranked ninth!
