Suddenly, a barrier that looked like mirror appeared in front of the mysterious person.

"Damn! What the f*ck… What is going on right now?"

Immediately, he could see his reflection from the mirror. Upon witnessing this terrifying scene, Zhao Ritian was left in shock. All greed in his mind was replaced by deep fear. Seconds later, something unexplainable happened.

Plop

A ripple started to form on the surface of the mirror and Zhao Ritian's reflection was materialized and started to walk out from the mirror. At the same time, the mysterious person was nowhere to be found when the mirror disappeared in front of him.

"Damn! Damn! Damn!"

Zhao Ritian was so shocked by it that he looked like a frog that was being stepped by a cow. It was as if his eyes were going to fall off and his mouth was enough to fit a fist in. No matter what, there was no way that Zhao Ritian could figure out what just happened to him.

"What do you think? My game is pretty darn interesting, right?" said the fake Zhao Ritian.

"Who… Who the hell are you? Why do you look like me?" said Zhao Ritian with fear flooding in his mind.

His entire forehead was filled with cold sweat.

"I'm Zhao Ritian!"

"Shut the f*ck up! I'm Zhao Ritian! You are just a fake! What are you trying to do here?! Transform back to your pervious image! Do it now!"

He would have thought that he was seeing a ghost if it was not daylight.

"I just spent 500 Spiritual Stones to turn into your image! Why would I transform back to my previous image?"

"No freaking way! You have to do it regardless! There's only one Zhao Ritian in this world! What should I do if you insist to walk in my skin?!"

"Yes! You are absolutely right! There should be only one Zhao Ritian in this world! Then, you should die since I have decided to walk in your image!"

"What?! Erk…"

Before Zhao Ritian could finish his words, his throat was grabbed by the fake Zhao Ritian.

"How… How is this even possible… Your strength…It's the same as mine… Mer… Mercy please… Please spare my life…"

Zhao Ritian kept on struggling for his life but his movement was restricted the moment Six Ears Macaque grabbed his throat. The more he struggled the more he suffered.

"Don't blame me for killing you! Blame yourself for not being a good person! You like to bully those that are weaker than you! You have a very toxic personality as well! Killing you will actually earn me a good amount of merit points! I, Six Ears Macaque is now revived! Other than completing the task given by Shen Gongpao, I have to earn more merit points for myself as well! That means I will have to recruit tons of disciples! During the upcoming calamity, I need to fight for a better future for myself!"

After that, Six Ears Macaque tossed Zhao Ritian into a ravine and returned to the arena as Zhao Ritian.

.....

At the arena.

The eight winners from the elimination round and eight seeded fighters were gathered together.

"In order to maintain the fairness of the competition, we are going to draw lots for the upcoming quarterfinal elimination round!"

The grand elder of Mount Hua Faction, Zhuang Bihuang had just made an announcement personally. Right after he finished talking, a box with a hole on top was delivered to the opponents. They could reach into the box to draw their lots.

"There are a total of sixteen balls inside this box. They come in red, orange, yellow, green, dark green, blue, purple, and white! Two balls per color! Those that got the same color will fight against each other later!"

"Are there any questions? If not, we shall start the lot drawing process!" said Zhuang Bihuang.

"Let me start to draw first!"

Immediately, Wu Aofeng marched forward and put his hand into the box. He then managed to draw a dark green ball.

"What a joker! Why did you rush to draw the lot? I need time do work out my plan!"

Chen Xiaobei could not help but begin to sweat when he saw Wu Aofeng went and volunteer himself to draw the lot. Earlier, he just used his Netherspirit Battlescouter to check everyone one. He found out that the two persons that wore mask possessed 40,000 combat power each! Even he knew that it was extremely difficult for him to defeat them. In order to make sure that the first three places would go to his allies, Chen Xiaobei had to do something to the box.

"Let me draw the next lot!" 

The person named Phantom Rain went and drew his lot. He was the most powerful opponent amongst all the sixteen contestants. He had a whopping 45,000 combat power! Immediately, Chen Xiaobei activated his Netherspirit Battlescouter once again to look inside the box. He saw that Phantom Rain just drew a white ball.

"Luckily…Wu Aofeng is not his opponent!" said Chen Xiaobei with a relieved sigh.

"But… How can I let Chang Qing draw a white ball as well?"

Chang Qing was the second most powerful contestant amongst them. He possessed a total of 44,000 combat power! If he somehow managed to make Chang Qing draw the white ball, a good show would be unveiled before them. In the end, Chen Xioabei would be able to keep all the rewards for himself!

It was easy to think about it but it was hard to execute it. Before Chen Xiaobei could figure out something, his desired outcome had fallen. The unlucky Liu Chunyi just drew a white ball from the box. With that being said, Liu Chunyi was going against Phantom Rain later.

"Shit… Since I can't make Phantom Rain fight with Chang Qing later, I will have to try my best to keep all my allies survive during the first round of elimination!"

Without wasting any time, Chen Xiaobei came up with a new goal in his mind. The best way to protect his allies was to let them fight with someone that was weaker than them. Suddenly, a random contestant went and drew the lot.

"No choice! I know it's a waste but it's more important to save their lives!"

The weakest contestants amongst all sixteen of them were the three contestants that came with no background. Without any hesitation, Chen Xiaobei took out a Monkey Fur of Prosperity.

"Turn that ball into dark green!"

The moment the monkey fur flew away from Chen Xiaobei's palm, it turned the ball dark green. In other words, this random contestant had now become Wu Aofeng's opponent. And Wu Aofeng would be able to proceed to the semi-finals with ease. After that, Chen Xiaobei did the same to the rest of his allies. As long as he could get his hands on all 5,000 Spiritual Stones, it was all worth it.
