On the arena, Mo Tang looked at the three young men before him, somewhat speechless.
"Wasn't it supposed to be a four-way battle? Is it appropriate for the three of you to team up against me?"
Clearly, while a four-person team seemed fair, a celebrity like Mo Tang would inevitably be the target of the other three's attacks…
This wasn't just happening to him; the other four faced the same fate.
"Hehe, Young Master Mo is joking. You are a disciple of Thunder Venerable and a powerhouse who has broken through to the Dou Zong level. While we three are confident, we dare not compare ourselves to you, so we have no choice but to resort to this tactic."
One of them appeared gentle and refined, but his strength was already that of a Seven-Star Dou Huang, clearly an elite scion of a powerful family.
The other two remained silent, but their attitude was obvious.

These three wanted to join forces to eliminate Mo Tang first, and then they would compete to see who was better...
Although the success rate was also very low, there was still hope.
Mo Tang chuckled and shook his head, "In that case, please..."
Before he finished speaking, the three opposite him had already made their moves at the same time.
The young master held a broken jade fan in his hand, and with one wave, countless wind blades appeared out of thin air, directly covering dozens of meters around Mo Tang.
The other two, with a sword and a saber, rushed out from the left, right, and rear at the same time, instantly locking down all the space where Mo Tang could dodge. ◦•●◉✿ 699.¢Ⓞм ✿◉●•◦
"Not bad."
The three's teamwork caught Mo Tang's eye, but this level of attack was useless against him.
A flash of lightning appeared beneath his feet, and three silver phantoms instantly rushed towards the three of them... Their speed was so fast that even the three Dou Huangs couldn't catch a trace of them.
"Three Thousand Thunder Illusionary Body?!"
The three of them were shocked at the same time, and then couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
Wasn't this guy just a newcomer to the Wind and Thunder Pavilion? How could he possibly have cultivated a Dou Technique of the Three Thousand Thunder Illusionary Body level?
The surrounding spectators also gasped in surprise, clearly quite frightened by Mo Tang's move.
However, the four Venerables who had been watching this scene could easily see through it. What Mo Tang was using was not a physical clone of the Three Thousand Thunder Illusionary Body, but merely a phantom created by the Three Thousand Thunder Movement.
However…
"Your disciple has actually cultivated the Three Thousand Thunder Movements to this level? Could it be that you, Old Monster Lei, had already nurtured him, only revealing it today?" Sword Venerable glanced at Thunder Venerable and asked.
Thunder Venerable wasn't surprised. He already knew that his disciple had been exposed to the Three Thousand Thunder Movements long ago. Although the cultivation speed was a bit abnormal, it wasn't anything to be astonished about.
"Old Sword, you're overthinking it. It's just that this child has a connection with my Wind and Thunder Pavilion. He encountered the Three Thousand Thunder Movements cultivation method that my Wind and Thunder Pavilion accidentally dropped at an auction, so he's been cultivating it for a while now."
The other three could accept this explanation.
After all, the shock caused by completely mastering a Ground-Rank combat skill in a month is completely different from the shock caused by cultivating a Ground-Rank combat skill in one or two years.
Faced with Mo Tang's illusory clones, the three were naturally unable to distinguish the real Mo Tang, so they hurriedly defended themselves simultaneously.
However, upon realizing that what was in front of them was merely an illusion, the other two already knew they had been tricked...
At this moment, Mo Tang's real body had already appeared beside the jade fan-wielding youth, gently touching his chest, and then a bolt of lightning erupted.
The Awakening of Insects Thunder Technique!
A mid-level Earth-rank lightning-attribute combat skill, once perfected, Mo Tang could unleash devastating lightning strikes with every gesture, making him impossible to defend against.
Similarly, as the jade fan youth's body was paralyzed, Mo Tang looked at the other two and gently waved his hands at them...
"Fall!"
Along with these words, a sudden clap of thunder roared in the sky.
Two bolts of lightning, as thick as an arm, instantly struck down, directly hitting the swords in the hands of the other two.
The reason for this was that Mo Tang didn't want to be too ruthless with these people...
there was no comparison between them anymore, so Mo Tang had no need to be harsh on them and needlessly create enemies.
A moment later, the lightning disappeared...
The three exchanged glances, all understanding the vast difference in strength between themselves and their opponents. They shook their heads with wry smiles, and the jade fan youth spoke first, cupping his hands to Mo Tang and saying, "Thank you for your mercy, Young Master! Young Master Mo's strength is formidable; Xiao Yuzhu is truly convinced!"
The jade fan youth's name was Xiao Yuzhu, the eldest son of the Xiao family of Yuzhu City in the Northern Region of Zhongzhou, and a renowned young genius.
Originally, the young and impetuous Mo Tang didn't think he was much different from these so-called four successors, but today's battle completely overturned his understanding.
Mo Tang smiled slightly, not displaying the arrogance of a victor, but gently said, "Young Master Xiao is too kind."
The other two also clasped their fists in salute, then conceded defeat and stepped down from the stage.
There was no way around it; their carefully planned scheme had been easily neutralized by their opponent, and if they hadn't held back, they wouldn't have been able to withstand even a single move. Why would they embarrass themselves by not admitting defeat?
Seeing Mo Tang's side so easily defeat their enemy, the members of the Wind and Thunder Pavilion were naturally all smiles. Even Thunder Venerable stroked his beard with a smile, a hint of smugness flashing in his eyes.
Just then, Wind Venerable, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up, saying to Thunder Venerable, "Thunder Venerable, if I'm not mistaken, your disciple shouldn't be just a one-star Dou Zong, right?"
These words startled Sword Venerable and Yellow Spring Venerable, and even Thunder Venerable was slightly surprised.
"Venerable Feng truly has discerning eyes! My disciple has indeed encountered another stroke of good fortune..."
As for Mo Tang's specific strength, Venerable Lei naturally wouldn't say too much.
He had gone to great lengths to obtain the same equipment for Mo Tang as Feng Qing'er, capable of concealing their bloodline aura and strength.
Having received Venerable Lei's affirmation, Venerable Feng nodded and didn't press further.
However, the information revealed in their words made Venerable Jian and Venerable Huang Quan's expressions even more gloomy.
"Damn it! How can that old devil Lei always find such monstrous disciples!" Venerable Jian cursed inwardly.
...
...
While Mo Tang defeated his opponent, the others also won their respective matches.
Feng Qing'er was similar to Mo Tang, easily winning with her Three Thousand Thunder Movement technique...
As for Mu Qingluan and Tang Ying, one used the powerful wind control technique she learned from Venerable Feng to defeat her opponent, while the other relied on the powerful attack of a sword cultivator to instantly kill her opponent.
However, both held back, avoiding a bloodbath.
On the contrary, Wang Chen of the Yellow Springs Pavilion used all sorts of insidious tricks, severely injuring his three opponents... If the three hadn't surrendered early, they might not have even survived.
