Chapter 989 Zhao Mushen Eliminated (1/2)

The entire world fell utterly silent.

Countless dumbstruck gazes stared at the end of the deep scar, where Zhao Mushen lay covered in blood and barely breathing. An incomparably miserable look had replaced the heroic spirit he had radiated when he was on the verge of breaking through to the Heavenly Sun stage.

No one had thought Zhao Mushen’s breakthrough would end in such a way: that Zhou Yuan would kick his face and interrupt his breakthrough.

Zhou Yuan’s kick also no doubt put an end to the tournament’s final battle.

As people stared at Zhou Yuan standing in the same spot as before, many eyes gradually filled with awe. Even Wang Xi and the others wore incomparably complex expressions, but there was also an undisguisable look of fear in their eyes.

They knew that the old Divine Dwelling king of Hunyuan Heaven had been defeated and would be replaced by a new Divine Dwelling legend.

This kind of replacement didn’t involve any schemes whatsoever. No one would dare question Zhou Yuan’s power after he had broken the Divine Dwelling stage’s limit. The fact that he had torn apart the Genesis Qi light shield that combined the Genesis Qi of Zhao Mushen, Wu Yao and Su Youwei was enough to explain everything.

The present Zhou Yuan could most likely beat Zhao Mushen, Wu Yao and Su Youwei together.

In the quiet world, the void around Zhao Mushen’s motionless body suddenly began to ripple, and a vortex swallowed his body.

Countless people stared speechless again because this indicated that Zhao Mushen was so severely wounded that it activated the mark within his body. It had formed a space vortex to kick him out of the Fallen Abyss. In other words, he had been eliminated.

Zhao Yuan had eliminated Zhao Mushen, who was thought to have the best chance of winning.

Countless people trembled at the result. Who would have thought that Zhao Mushen, who had dominated Hunyuan Heaven for so many years, would fail?

It was impossible.

Everyone on the Wanzu Region’s side fell into a trance-like state, particularly Liu Qingshu. Her expression changed indefinitely, and her voice turned sharp. “How is this possible!? How could my senior brother lose? It’s not fair! Zhou Yuan didn't wait for my senior brother to complete his breakthrough!”

The other members of the Wanzu Region, however, couldn't echo what she said because they could feel the contempt from the members of the other regions.

A failure was a failure, but Liu Qiushui still had to make excuses.

Why should Zhou Yuan wait for Zhao Mushen to break through? Do you think the nine regions tournament is a game for children? It is normal to even lose your life here!

Liu Qingshu closed her mouth amidst the many contemptuous gazes and clenched her hands and teeth. She couldn't accept this result.

She could accept Zhao Mushen losing to Wu Yao or Su Youwei, but not to the despicable Zhou Yuan!

Ultimately, this was because she had always felt superior to Zhou Yuan. After all, she was one of the Wanzu Region’s top heaven prides and had a powerful senior brother. What about Zhou Yuan? He had come from the deteriorating Tianyuan Region and had no outstanding achievement in the past.

These were the factors that made Liu Qingshu look down on Zhou Yuan, but she had never thought that the person she despised would crush the pride in her heart. But no matter how difficult it might be for her to accept it, the truth was in front of her, and she had no choice but to face it.

In the distance, Yuan Kun stroked his chubby face, looking a little dumbfounded. He then turned to say to Jiu Gong, “The Hunyuan Heaven’s Divine Dwelling stage is going to change again.”

He knew that Jiu Gong thought extremely highly of Zhao Mushen, and the result of the battle most likely shocked her greatly.
