The Poison Spirit had not gone crazy. In fact, he was the one who asked Jiang Yi to let him fight. Now that You Tianni had acceded to his request, he naturally smiled.

Become famous with one move!

This was what the Poison Spirit wanted. He was prepared to go all out in the battle and to scare everyone with his prowess. He wanted to fight for the glory of the Phantom Race and allow the Phantom Race to see how powerful he really was. The Poison Spirit was prepared to fight aggressively and ruthlessly and take You Tianni as the Clan Head that had chased him out in the first place. Of course… he had to use this battle to return smoothly to the Phantom Race.

You Tianni's cultivation level was higher than his. He also realized more nomological laws than he did. This meant he had much greater nomological mystical abilities than the Poison Spirit.

Yet, so what?

Young masters, including Qi Qingchen and the Little Eagle King, all had the same Achilles' heel: their practical battle skills were way too weak. This was because they were born with silver spoons in their mouths. You Tianni, most of all, was the only grandson of Heavenly King You. Who would allow him to take risks? The Poison Spirit believed with all his heart that You Tianni had never experienced what it was like to be on the brink of death. He had never even so much and smelt death before.

Since Qi Qingchen had become a King-Ranked martial artist, she had already outdone all her peers. Why did she still come to the Demon-Buster Army?

Was it not because she did not have practical fighting experience? She had never experienced a baptism of blood and fire. The Poison Spirit, on the other hand, had crawled out from the grave. He knew people who had never tasted death the best. He knew that the idea of death was beyond them; they did not understand what a real battle was!

Jiang Yi had the same thoughts. This was why he allowed the Poison Spirit to fight once he requested to. He even dared to make such a costly bet: if the Poison Spirit lost, he would have to kneel and kowtow to You Tianni each time he saw him. He was using this to show his support for the Poison Spirit. At the same time, he was using this so that the Poison Spirit would not be allowed to back down.

There was no choice but to fight to the death!

You Tianni led his people away. Many people began to gather in Fire Phoenix Army's camp, prepared to watch the fight. News spread like wildfire across the entire Demon-Buster Valley.

The Demon-Buster Valley once again bustled with action. In the various cities, countless people came out of their households and gathered in the city plazas, waiting for the drama to unfold. In other words… they were waiting for Jiang Yi to kneel down and kowtow to You Tianni.

You Tianni represented the power of the Demon-Buster Army's Internal Unit. At the same time, he represented the various great family clans' young masters. In other words, Jiang Yi represented just one party, but You Tianni represented the combined powers in the Demon-Buster Army.

The only person who wanted Jiang Yi to win was Di Ling'er.

Now, Mo Huaisang was standing on the complete opposite side of Jiang Yi. Mo Lingqiu gave her two choices: either choose to support the Little Eagle King or choose to depend on Jiang Yi. Since Jiang Yi joined the Fire Phoenix Army, Mo Huaisang felt resentful. At that moment, he was even at odds with most of the great family clans. Of course, she would not be so silly as to cling on to Jiang Yi at a time like this. What's more, she had always felt like Jiang Yi despised her.

More and more people gathered in the city plaza. Many commanders were also out, ready to watch the battle. You Tianni was too prominent a character; naturally, ordinary commanders would not dare to show him no regard. Even Di Qianjun was there. However, there was no expression on his face. He only stood silently by the side to watch, showing support for neither side.

Shh-shh-shh!

You Tianni and company walked out of the headquarters, signifying that the battle had been approved. He led the group onto the city plaza and then waved his hands, gesturing for everyone to move backward. Touching the tattoo on his head, he flew up into the air and turned to face the Fire Phoenix Army Camp. In a cool voice, he shouted, "Jiang Yi, send your man out!"

Swish!

Jiang Yi did not emerge. Instead, the Poison Spirit floated out like a cool breeze. The Poison Spirit's body congealed in midair. Without any expression on his face, he cupped his hands and said, "My young master said that he would not be watching the battle. He wants us to go ahead and have fun…"

"Wow!"

Tens of thousands of people immediately exclaimed. Jiang Yi really had his nose high in the air. He sent his soul slave to fight and could not even be bothered to watch the battle? Was he sure that his soul slave would be able to defeat You Tianni in just three blows?

"This bastard really thinks that he is a King-Ranked martial artist now. He sent his soul slave to fight, and the soul slave is a God-Thearch-ranked martial artist at that? He's too much!"

"Hehe, I'd say he daren't come out. He's afraid that if he loses, he would have to kneel down on the spot!"

"That's right, that must be it. I heard that Jiang Yi is only a God King. His own skills are not good enough, and that's probably why he has to use his soul slave. I don't even know how he got this soul slave anyway. Could the Earth Emanations King have bestowed the soul slave upon him?"

"Three blows? It'll be more believable that Young Master You would kill the other party in just three blows…"

"Young Master You, defeat him! Defeat him!"

Countless people began to discuss the situation, and many other young masters began to shout in support of You Tianni, asking him not to hold himself back. This battle was to be a battle to the death. If You Tianni really killed the Poison Spirit, nobody could do anything about it. Even Qi Qingchen would not be able to stop the outcome if she stepped out.

Swish!

A middle-aged commander flew up into the air, addressing both of them. In a low voice, he shouted, "Can I ask if the two of you agree to this battle? This battle is classified as a death fight. You will both be responsible for any injuries you may sustain from it. If there is no issue, the battle will begin in a moment. Everyone, be careful… you are not to break any the castles below or to hurt any innocent civilians. Otherwise, you will be gravely punished!"

"No problem!"

You Tianni immediately answered in a cool tone. The Poison Spirit nodded and said, "No problem!"

"Alright. Let the fight begin!"

A middle-aged commander flew down, and red battle armor appeared around You Tianni's body at once. A red helmet appeared on his bald head as well. At the same time, a red battle sword appeared in his hand. It was a full suit.

"A supreme-grade divine artifact?"

The Poison Spirit's eyes widened. He recognized the battle armor and battle sword; they were both supreme-grade divine artifacts. His hand flashed, and a green flute appeared. The aura around his body began to expand limitlessly, along with his killing intent, which poured forward like a stream.

You Tianni raised his battle sword, his own aura expanding, matching the Poison Spirit's. Pointing the sword at the latter's face, he shouted in a cool tone, "You Tianni, titled the Heaven-Defying God Thearch! I am the Internal Patrol Envoy of the Demon-Buster Army. My supreme-grade divine artifacts are the Waning Moon Battle Sword and Waning Moon Battle Armor. Please, teach me what you know!"

These were the rules of the battle. Each had to announce their clan name and their skills to express their respect to the other party. The Poison Spirit remained expressionless as he said, "The Poison Spirit, in the God Thearch Realm. I am Battle God Jiang Yi's soul slave, an abandoned disciple of the Phantom Race. My medial-grade divine artifact is my Blood-Thirsty Blade. I am not wearing any battle armor!"

Once he finished speaking, the Poison Spirit's body disappeared into thin air, without a trace. Countless divine senses scanned the surroundings, but none managed to locate him. Once again, the crowd below bustled.

He was an abandoned disciple of the Phantom Race. This meant that he was once a formidable martial artist from the Phantom Race, which was the best clan in terms of killing techniques in the Earth Domain. After the Ink Feather Race, the Phantom Race was the second most powerful clan in the Earth Domain!

Many people did not worry at all about this battle before; but now, they were beginning to feel a bit worried. Of course… they were just a little bit worried because You Tianni was dressed in supreme-grade battle armor. The Poison Spirit's flute alone could not break through it for sure.

Everyone present was waiting on bated breath for the Poison Spirit to make his move. The moment he did, everyone could feel it. At that moment, You Tianni closed his eyes. The red battle sword in his hand lit up and began flashing nonstop. He was ready to strike at any moment.

"Chi…"

A sound as soft as a mosquito dancing around could be heard on the left. Countless divine senses swept over immediately. You Tianni did not hesitate to strike with his long sword. It looked almost like a divine light beam was being shot down from the Nine Heavens. A red beam of light stretching across thirty kilometers appeared on the left, ruthless.

"Too weak! You want to fight my master with battle skills like yours?"

A mocking voice echoed in the surroundings. In all directions in the void, clones of the Poison Spirit appeared. One by one, they held up their flashing green flute and charged towards You Tianni. The clones which filled the sky, together with their green flutes, looked incredible. The crowd was obviously bedazzled. Countless divine senses swept over them as many formidable martial artists tried to locate the Poison Spirit's true body. They wanted to know which the Poison Spirit's true killer attack was.

However—

Even after searching for a while, they found that every body was fake. Yet, You Tianni was being scared stiff by the Poison Spirit's clones. He waved his battle sword around in the air, striking with all his might at every single body which was charging towards him.

"He's fallen for it. Young Master You is in trouble…"

One of the formidable martial artists sighed. The Phantom Race was very particular about killing the enemy with a single move. They tended to pile on their attacks, overwhelming the enemy so that they would not even be able to catch a breath. You Tianni had too little practical battle experience. The Poison Spirit was already leading him by the nose. His outcome did not look positive at all.
