The Emperor's arrival was announced yesterday.

However, the Profound Celestial Sect Leader appeared suddenly, capturing everyone's attention and propelling the momentum of this duel to its peak!

In past Qilin Ranking duels, not even the two Protectors of the Profound Celestial Sect had attended, let alone the Sect Leader.

Now, with the real presence of the Sect Leader, one can see the impact of this duel!

The entrance of the Profound Celestial Sect Leader was accompanied by various phenomena, appearing mysterious and beyond common understanding.

In the eyes of powerful figures like Murong Daoye and Yuwen Mao, it was nothing significant.

Petals and Golden Lotus were insubstantial, merely phenomena caused by a Grandmaster using the Power of the Divine Soul to drive True Qi.

But such things were enough to impress the vast majority of people!

The Profound Celestial Sect Leader walked through the air, directly arriving on the seventh floor of the Vermilion Bird Tower, standing on the same level as the Emperor and Empress.

Moreover, he stood right beside Yuan Qingshan, overlooking the Capital City shoulder to shoulder.

Chen Tang observed carefully.

Regarding this obviously overstepping action of the Profound Celestial Sect Leader, neither the officials nor the common people showed any sign of disapproval, as if it was perfectly natural.

Yuan Qingshan remained calm, and after the Sect Leader entered the Vermilion Bird Tower, he looked down at the arena and loudly announced, "If both are ready, you may start the duel at any time!"

As his voice fell, the atmosphere in the arena suddenly changed!

"Prepare to die!"

Sang Han, who had been impatient, shouted loudly, his gaze piercing, and charged quickly towards Chen Tang.

Thud thud thud!

Sang Han's feet struck the ground repeatedly with great strength, producing a rhythmic sound akin to war drums, stirring the heart!

Chen Tang's body was quite strong already.

Sang Han appeared even more robust, though slightly shorter.

His exposed arms were extremely muscular, with large masses of muscles knotted like rocks, veins bulging, charging ahead like an enraged bull!

Heaven-Pacing Bull Demon Fist!

According to Changsun Ming, this was one of Sang Han's favored fist techniques.

The Martial Arts of the Barbarian Land differed from those of the Divine Land.

Many of Barbarian Land's techniques involved totem legends.

For instance, the Heaven-Pacing Bull Demon Fist is said to be inherited from the Bull Demon Totem, capable of unleashing power beyond imagination!

Chen Tang also charged towards Sang Han.

In an instant, the two were less than a few meters apart!

Sang Han suddenly thrust out his arms like a pair of horns, ramming towards Chen Tang!

Chen Tang halted his movement, forming a virtual embrace in front, as if holding a Heaven-Reaching Immortal Tower!

Arhat Demon-Subduing Fist, Tower Holding Form!

Clang!!

Chen Tang's palms just managed to block Sang Han's ramming fists!

The collision of fists and palms did not resemble fleshly combat but emitted the sound of metal clashing.

It was as if horns collided with an iron tower!

The iron tower dispersed, and Chen Tang fell back several steps.

While Sang Han's ramming was forcibly halted.

It seemed that Chen Tang fell back, suggesting he was at a disadvantage.

But the sound from the iron tower left Sang Han's ears ringing and head slightly dizzy, feeling uncomfortable.

This Chen Tang was indeed more troublesome than he imagined.

Before Sang Han could react, Chen Tang's counterattack had arrived!

Chen Tang retreated a few steps, creating some distance, then reversed his fist, as though throwing out a massive entity, propelling himself forward!

"Roar!"

A sound of an elephant trumpet echoed across the arena.

Elephant Throwing Form!

This move required some distance to be properly executed, allowing full force to be unleashed.

Chen Tang's retreating steps conveniently left space for this form to unfold.

"Huh?"

Sang Han widened his eyes.

Before, no matter who he fought.

Even the top of the Qilin Ranking, Changsun Ming, could only defend passively against his assault, incapable of counterattacking.

This Chen Tang, however, could fight back!

Sang Han lifted his foot suddenly, stomping heavily on the ground, causing the entire arena to shake!

A tremendous impact spread from the ground, rushing towards Chen Tang.

Chen Tang's Elephant Throwing Form paused slightly.

At that moment, Sang Han struck suddenly!

The timing was masterfully captured, worthy of praise.

Due to Sang Han's stomping, causing ground vibrations, Chen Tang's form was impeded, its power far less formidable, momentum disrupted.

"Good!"

Chen Tang noted silently.

Unexpectedly, such a flaw-exploiting method existed.

Continuing the form seemed futile against Sang Han's strength.

Without waiting for the form's exhaustion, Chen Tang switched techniques, forming a hand seal in his palm, meeting Sang Han's fists with a lion's roar!

Esoteric Great Hand Seal, Outer Lion Seal!

Bam!

The smash of fist and seal, a massive explosion ensued!

Both retreated one step!

"Good, interesting."

Sang Han was not frightened but instead delighted, his eyes sparkling with excitement, growing more exuberant.

"Take another punch!"

Sang Han shouted loudly, once again swinging his arms, his fists like immense divine hammers crashing down on Chen Tang.

This punch differed from before.

Around Sang Han's fist, space seemed to undergo strange oscillations, subtle, nearly imperceptible!

Below, Changsun Ming watched with a serious expression, saying in a deep voice, "This is the unique force technique of this man, containing not only the power of the fist but also a strange oscillating force."

"If one does not realize it, facing it continuously would result in damage to muscles and bones due to repetitive shocks."

In the initial exchange, he could handle it, blocking Sang Han's offense.

But once Sang Han released this secret force technique, he was overwhelmed.

His arms felt sore, even losing strength.

Not long after, he was severely injured by Sang Han, nearly losing his life!

Yesterday, Changsun Ming specifically warned Chen Tang about this, advising him to pay extra attention.

An observer sees clearly.

In the midst of battle, without a reminder, one might not detect such shifts in opponent's force.

Chen Tang's gaze sharpened.

With the help of Listening to the Wind and Recognizing Shadows, Chen Tang instantly detected the change in Sang Han's fist technique.

Not daring to be careless, Chen Tang used the Heaven-Supporting Form from the Arhat Demon-Subduing Fist, coordinated with Great Strength Vajra Hand for defense.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

The collisions continued, occasionally splattering with golden sparks!

The two exchanged blows rapidly on the arena.

After more than ten exchanges, they both retreated a few steps, creating distance again!

Chen Tang shook his arms, his expression calm.

With the Great Strength Vajra Hand, the shock force from Sang Han's technique was perfectly neutralized!

"Is this the Great Strength Vajra Hand?"

Sang Han saw the occasional golden light from Chen Tang's palm, frowning deeply.

Among peers, few could withstand this shock force!

"Take a few moves from me!"

Chen Tang spoke softly, forming the Great Vajra Wheel Seal and Outer Lion Seal in both hands, striding rapidly towards Sang Han!
