After a few seconds of soundlessness, a loud thud was heard as Sun Wuji's head rolled on the ground. The sudden, eerie silence that followed the intense battle was shattered by the sickening sound of his severed head hitting the stage.

At the same time, a stone punch pierced through Ying Lizhua's chest, its forceful impact echoing through the arena. Sticking out from his back was the whole forearm of Sun Wuji, a testament to the brutal exchange that had just occurred.
