Chapter 883 The last round (1/2)

An ancient token hovered in midair. The token, engraved with the pattern of the Four Spirits Origin Tower, contained a unique imposing majesty.

There were countless rocks, big and small, in all sorts of strange shapes on the mountain summit.

At this moment, a figure passed through the clouds, looking up at the ancient token in midair with a calm face, but in the depths of his eyes was a hint of emotion.

“The chief pavilion master token…,” Zhou Yuan muttered to himself.

It had been a year since he had come to the Hunyuan Heaven’s Tianyuan Region, but now he had the qualification to compete for the chief pavilion master position with the many heaven prides of the Tianyuan Region.

No, he didn’t just have the qualification, because as long as he took one step further, the position of the coveted chief pavilion master would fall into his hands.

In this one year of time, Zhou Yuan had never relaxed once. He had done everything he could to enhance his strength because he couldn’t relax knowing that Yaoyao was still in the lonely and cold crystal glass coffin waiting for him.

All these years, it was unknown how many dangers and difficulties the young man who had just left the Great Zhou Empire had encountered and how much Yaoyao had helped and protected him.

Without Yaoyao, Zhou Yuan really wasn’t sure who would have the last laugh in his fight against Wu Huang and King Wu…

Therefore, Zhou Yuan knew that he owed Yaoyao a lot over the years.

But now Yaoyao was wounded and unconscious because of him. Zhou Yuan blamed himself for it, but he also knew that blaming himself wouldn’t solve any problems. Therefore, he had come to the unfamiliar Hunyuan Heaven and Tianyuan Region by himself to begin a new journey...

During the one year he was in the Tianyuan Region, he had broken through from the initial Divine Dwelling stage to the advanced Divine Dwelling stage and from a nobody became the Tianyuan Region’s dazzling dark horse.

All of it wasn’t for the so-called fame.

Zhou Yuan didn’t care for the position of chief pavilion master, but it was the first step to winning the Ancestral Dragon Lantern. Therefore, Zhou Yuan couldn’t give up.

Fortunately, the success of this first step was imminent and just before him.

“Yaoyao, although this is only a small step, as long as it can awaken you, I am willing to climb a mountain of swords and plunge into a sea of flames for you,” Zhou Yuan whispered, a remarkably beautiful face emerging in his mind, making his spirit waver and his cold face grow gentler.

“I never would have thought you would be the one to compete for the chief pavilion master position with me in the end...” An indifferent voice suddenly sounded from behind him.

Lu Xiao stepped forward, standing opposite Zhou Yuan. He looked up at the token hovering in midair. “I really don’t know where you get this confidence. It seems that defeating Han Yuan has given you a lot courage.”

“You will know soon after we begin exchanging blows.” Zhou Yuan smiled.

Lu Xiao shook his head and didn’t speak again. He only moved slightly and immediately reappeared on a huge boulder hundreds of meters tall. He peered down indifferently. “Pavilion master Zhou Yuan, please.”

....

After the cloud ladder round and the first round of the four pavilion master battle, the atmosphere in the outside world was completely buzzing with excitement, especially when Zhou Yuan and Lu Xiao faced each other on the mountain summit. Countless people waited with great anticipation for the battle to begin.

This battle for the position of chief pavilion master was even more exciting than they had thought.

They originally thought that Lu Xiao would be the winner without any suspense, but after watching the battle between Zhou Yuan and Han Yuan, everyone knew that Zhou Yuan was qualified to pose a threat to Lu Xiao.

But from their spirited discussions, it was clear that many people were still more optimistic about Lu Xiao. After all, although Zhou Yuan, the dark horse, had demonstrated astonishing strength, Lu Xiao was the strongest person in the Divine Dwelling stage in the Tianyuan Region and was also ranked ninth on the Divine Dwelling List. Therefore, in terms of fame and demonstrated strength, he was still superior to Zhou Yuan.
