After several dramatic turns took place between Zen and Vale, there were heated discussions among the crowd. At this point, they paid little attention to the other fights going on in the arena.
As Vale and Zen damaged the arena during the battle, a team of craftsmen from the Cloud Sect transported huge stones to the area and used them to fill in the damage done to the battle grounds. Later on, the elders helped rearrange the array and enchanted barriers before a new round began.
In this round, two personal disciples appeared on the stage but their opponents were all at the peak of the nature level. Their opponents had outstanding strength, based on the fact that they had come a long way before finally entering round robin. However, they were unlike Rocher who was extremely excellent, leaving them unlikely to make any surprise moves. As expected, the two personal disciples easily defeated them and won the victory.
After that, the round robin proceeded normally. All the personal disciples, save for Vale, won the battles.
The disciples from various peaks had also done an outstanding job this year. Jill, Rocher, and Wing all had winning streaks but their success came too easily as they didn't encounter any opponents stronger than them. That was why Sheeny from Skytop Peak failed when he battled against Willie Huo, a personal disciple.
The fight between the top disciples and the personal disciples was the highlight of the All Peaks Competition and what the disciples most anticipated to see. Zen and Vale's battle was indeed a feast for their eyes. Features of the fight had many twists and turns, including thrilling moments when the audience was certain that one of them would be killed—these scenes lingered in their memories.
In the corner of the area, Saint Viana sat on a cattail hassock, overlooking the entire arena and competition. As his eyes brushed past the large crowd, his eyes remained fixed on Zen.
His dry and stiff face, resembling pine bark, looked sullen.
"The last three generations of Luo Clan are all very ordinary. The last generation only has one nature creature. But in this one two super talents popped up consecutively. Yan is extraordinary with her rare, special body. But I didn't expect Zen to appear. Not only does he have innate superhuman strength, but his corporal body is tremendously strong and tough, almost to an extent of an abnormality. Moreover, he mastered the cultivation method of the powerful Heavenly Ogre Fist!
He may not be as gifted as Yan, but his strength in actual combat is even more terrifying than hers. I once offended him and punished Yan for a crime as well. Now, he certainly wouldn't cease his revenge. We'd better seize this chance when he hasn't yet fully grown into a master and knock him off his perch. This way we can avoid any future troubles." As he explained, Saint Viana was deep in thought.
Sitting in another cattail hassock was Saint Zara who was in repose with his eyes closed. Upon hearing Saint Viana's words, he simply shook his head and said, "You once said that you have arranged a disciple to assassinate Zen in the All Peak Competition. I don't know who the assassinator is, but if he wants to kill Zen, he must have at least the ability to match him in battle. In my opinion, it's very difficult to find such a person."
It was true that Saint Viana arranged an Illuminating Soul Realm disciple to assassinate Zen on the arena but the disciple wavered after he watched Zen defeated Dick.
