Chapter 1252 The Opponent is Gu Hanchuan
The guard's voice, cold and hard as iron, echoed across the silent square.
The moment the words fell.
Below the high platform, in the center of that huge white jade plaza, the ground silently cracked open.
A massive circular platform, sculpted from pure crystal, slowly rose up!
Above the circular platform, a much larger crystal ball floats.
Inside the sphere, there was a chaotic void, as if it contained a newly created world.
hum!
With a deep, resonant sound, the golden scroll hanging in the air vibrated once more.
The thousand golden names recorded on the scroll detached from the scroll and transformed into streaks of light, like attracted fireflies, all disappearing into the giant crystal ball!
Inside the crystal ball, a thousand names spun, intertwined, and collided wildly!
Everyone held their breath, staring intently at the sphere that would determine their fate!
Everything will be a random match!
suddenly!
The crystal ball jolted violently!
Two golden names were forcefully flung out from the chaotic vortex!
They drew two arcs in the air and precisely imprinted themselves on a huge jade disc that had been prepared beforehand!
The first matchup is set!
"Number 960 versus number 988!"
Among the crowd, a thin young man froze the moment he saw the result.
The next second, he suddenly jumped up and swung his fist fiercely into the sky!
"Hahaha! God help me too!"
"I'm ranked 960th, and my opponent is 988th! This match is in the bag! It's a sure thing!"
He was so excited that his face turned red, and he almost cried tears of joy!
On the other side of the square, the cultivator known as the 988th ranked cultivator stared at his opponent with a cold expression, secretly determined to give him a good beating once he stepped onto the arena.
Rankings based on the number of tokens held do not fully represent an individual's true strength!
Because obtaining a token also involves an element of luck.
Even if you are very strong, if you don't encounter opponents who possess a large number of tokens, then even if you defeat them, you will only obtain a small number of tokens!
The crystal ball continues to spin.
One pair of names after another was thrown out!
"The 310th place player will face off against the 720th place player!"
"The 500th person is facing off against the 501st person!"
Some are happy, some are sad.
Those who drew the weaker card were overjoyed, almost ready to celebrate on the spot.
Those who drew powerful opponents turned ashen-faced.
Soon, the names in the top ten began to appear!
"Seventh place, Xiao Jianchen, versus one hundred and twenty-third place!"
The cultivator ranked 123rd instantly lost all color from his face!
He stared at Xiao Jianchen, dressed in white and carrying a long sword, in the distance, and suddenly everything went black.
He had already lost before the fight even started.
As the draw proceeded, fewer and fewer names remained in the crystal ball.
The atmosphere in the room became increasingly eerie.
Everyone's gaze, intentionally or unintentionally, drifted toward the two women who remained remarkably calm throughout.
Who will be their opponent?
at last!
Inside the crystal ball, there were fewer than twenty names left!
at this time!
hum!
A name soared into the sky from the vortex!
Xie Purou!
The entire room fell silent instantly!
Countless gazes were fixed on the name suspended in mid-air!
Those eliminated cultivators clenched their fists, screaming wildly in their hearts!
Let's go all out!
We have to go all out!
Ideally, the monsters should be in the top ten!
Inside the crystal ball, the last name spun wildly, stirring everyone's heartstrings!
at last!
Yet another name has been brutally thrown out!
The golden characters drew a sharp trajectory in the air, heavily imprinting themselves next to Xie Purou's name!
Eighth place: Gu Hanchuan!
When these two names were listed side by side, the entire Baiyu Square fell into absolute silence for three seconds!
Next!
boom!
A wave a hundred times more frenzied than ever before has completely exploded!
This time, it wasn't anger, but ecstasy! It was a maniacal schadenfreude!
"Holy crap! It's Gu Hanchuan!"
"Hahahaha! What goes around comes around! No one escapes the judgment of Heaven! This woman drew Gu Hanchuan!"
"It's over! She's completely finished!"
"Eighth place! It's Gu Hanchuan from the White Bone Demon Sect!"
"My god! This woman's luck is really bad! How could she draw this killing god!"
"Hahahaha! Karma! This is karma!"
"That's insane! Didn't she tell us to pray that we'd get her? Well, now Gu Hanchuan got her for all of us!"
Those eliminated cultivators were laughing louder than anyone else, slapping their thighs and almost laughing to tears!
"That feels so good! That's fucking awesome!"
The prodigy ranked 1001 was trembling with excitement, pointing at his name on the jade wall as if he were going mad.
"Gu Hanchuan! Kill her! No! Don't let her die too quickly! Cripple her! Make her kneel on the ground and kowtow to all of us to beg for forgiveness!"
"Yes! Let her know that privileges aren't so easy to come by!"
A wave of schadenfreude swept through every corner of the square!
Who is Gu Hanchuan?
Eighth on the list of prodigies!
He is also the infamous young master of the White Bone Demon Sect!
This person's cultivation method is extremely evil and cruel. The souls of his opponents who die at his hands are extracted and refined into vengeful spirits, and their bones are refined into puppets, never to be reincarnated!
In everyone's eyes, drawing Gu Hanchuan is worse than drawing a monster ranked in the top five; the consequences are even more tragic!
Because those few great-grandsons of the royal family might still care about their reputation and wouldn't go so far as to kill them.
But Gu Hanchuan is a complete madman!
What he enjoys is the desperate screams of his opponents as he tortures them!
in the crowd.
A handsome young man dressed in a black robe, with a pale face, slowly raised his head.
He is Gu Hanchuan!
He looked at his name and Xie Purou's name listed side by side on the jade disc, and a morbid, cruel smile curled at the corner of his mouth.
His gaze swept over the countless throngs of people and landed on the girl in the light purple dress.
That look didn't seem like he was looking at an opponent.
It's more like a butcher examining a lamb about to be slaughtered, pondering where to make the first cut so that it screams the loudest and struggles the longest!
He stuck out his tongue and slowly licked his chapped lips, his eyes filled with undisguised bloodlust!
The moment Gu Hanchuan's name appeared, the ecstasy in one corner of the crowd surpassed that of all other places!
"It's the Young Master!"
"It was the young sect leader who drew that woman!"
Several disciples of the White Bone Demon Sect, also dressed in black robes and surrounded by a chilling aura, were so excited that their faces turned red!
