Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

While the final judgment of each competition was always presided over by an Emperor, it was the Ancestral Court that decided which Emperor it would be. The fact that the White Tiger Great Demon King had managed to secure this position clearly indicated the considerable effort and influence he had exerted.

His presence alone served as a testament to his recognition of Pretty Girl. Although Big Cat also possessed the bloodline of the Tiger Demon Clan, how could Big Cat be closer to Pretty Girl, who carried the White Tiger Great Demon King's own bloodline? Therefore, it was obvious he was there for Pretty Girl. Even if Pretty Girl lost the match, she would still be afforded his protection. With the White Tiger Great Demon King's presence, at least during her time in the Ancestral Court, she wouldn't need to worry about her safety.

"Begin," the White Tiger Great Demon King commanded coldly. In an instant, both Big Cat and Pretty Girl could distinctly feel an aura of authority envelop the entire arena, isolating them completely from the outside world, ensuring that neither breath nor sound could influence the events within the arena.

Big Cat held the God-killing Sword in hand, his pupils becoming vertical in a flash. On the other side, Pretty Girl swung her Heavenly Mechanism Feather, with layers upon layers of space gates quietly opening around her body.

The battle between both sides was on the verge of erupting!

Big Cat took a deep breath, and a faint white glow surged around his body, with the God-killing Sword in his hands shining even brighter. The platinum sword light contained a faint hint of red, and in that moment, his eyes also turned red. His aura skyrocketed instantly, bringing his Lion Tiger Golden Gang to its peak. The Killing God Field naturally opened, as killing intent crazily converged inward.

At that moment, Big Cat stood like a brewing storm, furiously amassing power.

On the other side, Pretty Girl also paused for a moment, witnessing this show of force. What did such preparation from the opponent signify? It meant that the incoming attack wouldn't be a probe but rather a full-powered assault.

She too took a deep breath, her feet dancing upon the Black Yellow, moving gracefully against the backdrop of the space gates. The gentle swings of her Heavenly Mechanism Feather acted like an adhesive, connecting these doors to each other in multiple layers.

At this point, Pretty Girl seemed to have merged with the entire space, exuding an ethereal yet powerful presence.

Big Cat gripped the hilt of the God-killing Sword with both hands, raising the heavy sword slowly. As he lifted the sword, the furious killing intent and his own bloodline aura converged into the God-killing Sword. Instead of expanding outwards, the previously violent aura was now retracting inward.

In that moment, he seemed to become one with the God-killing Sword in his hands, and one could vaguely see an enormous sword rising into the air, becoming ever more magnificent. All his intent was internalized, and his eyes shone increasingly bright.

Clearly, he aimed to conclude the battle in one strike, akin to how Tang San had once done with his self-sacrificing strike.

Pretty Girl seemed to understand something across from him, her silver gown twirling as she danced. The space gates swirled around her body, and the sky above began to darken—not with gloom, as stars twinkled within the darkness, and the inner colors of the revolving space gates deepened in hue, circling around her, making her appear as if she were in the midst of a black hole.

This bizarre change offered a strong visual impact. Both sides were clearly storing up energy, and it seemed likely that after one strike, the champion would be decided.

The White Tiger Great Demon King, who had retreated to a distance, frowned slightly at this scene. Could such a simple and brutal method of combat truly display the full capacities of both sides?

Before, they could be considered battle-hardened to have reached this point, and now they were being so rash?

Only Tang San, observing the battle, somewhat understood the meaning behind this.

The Peacock Great Demon King, initial astonishment fading, gradually grasped the situation as well, a slight smile appearing on his face.

It appeared that both sides had reached the pinnacle of their preparation. In the next instant, Big Cat roared furiously, and the massive figure of the Lion Tiger Beast manifested behind him. His hands clutched the heavy sword and, in a fierce motion, brought it down in a slash. Transformed into a shocking ray of light, it carried unmatched killing intent as it descended from the heavens, aiming directly at Pretty Girl.

But in that instant, Pretty Girl's figure quietly disappeared. Her dancing form seemed to have been devoured by the black hole behind her, vanishing without a trace.

And the entire sky at this moment had already turned pitch black, with only the platinum sword light ruthlessly slashing into the black hole.

The black hole spun wildly, countless sprays of platinum sword light scattering in all directions, but the sword light remained solid and continuously sliced into the black hole. Platinum clashed with the dark, speckled with starlight, one steadily depleting, the other unpredictably shifting like Heaven Shifting.

"Roar—" the Big Cat let out another fierce roar, and the light shadow of the Lion Tiger Beast at its back suddenly dissipated, transforming into streaks of light that poured into the sword light. For a moment, the sword light flared up, and it looked as if there were light streaming from the Big Cat's eyes, its aura rising to the extreme in an instant.

It was almost as if its bloodline began to burn at that instant, a faint golden light shooting from its pupils, its bloodline aura violently boiling. The platinum light became even brighter, and the God-killing Sword burst forth with an unparalleled brilliant sword light.

"Clang!"

The black hole, caught in the unrestrained sword light, finally shattered, dispersing into countless black light ribbons that scattered around, and the platinum sword light seemed to split heaven and earth as it fell, dividing the entire competition stage in the middle.

But on the other side, its opponent's figure had vanished, and even though the massive stage was split in two, it had also lost its lock on its target.

Sometimes Heaven Shifting doesn't just shift an opponent's attack, it can also shift oneself.

By risking a life-threatening outburst, the Big Cat ultimately breached through the defense of Heaven Shifting with the enhancement of the God-killing Sword, but it failed to lock onto Pretty Girl, who had danced within Heavenly Mechanism. How difficult is it to lock onto Heavenly Mechanism anew?

Silver light flickered quietly, a light door opened in the air, and Pretty Girl stepped out from nowhere.

But when she reappeared in front of all the watchers, her peacock blue hair had turned into crystal clear white, and even her delicate body seemed to have grown taller, with white light swirling around her body. The silver dress set off the white hair, adding a sharp and noble quality, as well as a thick killing intent.

White Tiger Transformation!

Yes, after blocking the ultimate strike of the Great Lion Tiger Sword Saint Big Cat with the Heavenly Mechanism Dance, Pretty Girl had already switched to the White Tiger Transformation. The White Tiger Transformation greatly enhanced her defense and physical strength, perfectly withstanding the aftermath of the previous attack.

Her lovely face was slightly pale, but evidently, compared to the Big Cat on the other side, whose aura was rapidly fading, she was faring much better.

Looking at Pretty Girl descending from the sky, the Big Cat propped itself up with the God-killing Sword, a faint trace of blood seeping from the corner of its mouth, and nodded to her, "You've won."

After saying that, it turned and leapt down from the stage, leaving just like that.

At that moment, the White Tiger Great Demon Emperor seemed to have understood something, his eyes slightly narrowing as he looked at the Pretty Girl who had descended from the sky, with an aura similar to his own. A complex light flashed in the depths of his eyes as he announced, "The champion of this Ancestral Court Elite Competition, individual match, is Pretty Girl from Jiali City."

Indeed, when she had registered, she had left the name Pretty Girl. Thus, even Tang San, up until now, did not know her real name.

Pretty Girl glanced at the retreating back of the Big Cat, a peculiar light also passing through her eyes. She subconsciously looked towards the VIP seats and saw the man wearing a mask, the corners of his mouth curled up in a smile.

As if in a dream, at this moment, that was the only feeling in her heart.
