The Prodigies War

Shua!

With a flash, Lin Xun landed on the ancient battlefield and swept an amused glance over Helian Qi in the distance.

Helian Qi stiffened. Even if he did not want to, he knew that he had to fight this battle!

After taking a deep breath, and with a heavy feeling in his chest, he walked onto the battlefield amidst sympathetic gazes of the audience as if he was a hero about to sacrifice his life.

“Helian Qi, I advise you to just admit defeat and stop wasting time,” someone laughed.

Many others burst into laughter.

Helian Qi’s face instantly darkened and veins popped on his forehead.

In the past, as a descendant of the ancient Nightmare Suppressor Clan and one of the ten champions of Cloud State, he was treated like a star wherever he went.

Unfortunately, at this moment, he had become a target of ridicule. The difference in treatment almost drove him mad.

That damned Jin Duyi!

He glowered resentfully at Lin Xun who was opposite him and hissed through gritted teeth. “Even if I lose, I won’t let you have an easy time!”

Boom!

His aura roared around him as divine light rushed forth, casting a bottomless ancient well behind him, from which black demonic qi surged out.

In an instant, his power was amplified and brought to its pinnacle state. He was like a divine fiend that suppressed an eternal purgatory.

Many people’s expressions changed.

One’s ranking in the Great Void Dao Refining Pagoda assessment did not necessarily represent their actual combat power. Helian Qi’s ranking in the second round of selections was only considered average, but the power he erupted with at this moment astonished the cultivators who were ranked higher than him.

Buzz—

Before anyone had enough time to react, a crescent-shaped, blood-red halberd appeared in Helian Qi’s grip. The tip was inlaid with an extremely bewitching-looking green eyeball that beamed with eerie green lights.

“Nightmare Suppressor Halberd!”

An exclamation set off a commotion in the audience, and many influential figures had disbelieving stares of wonder.

Nightmare Suppressor Halberd was a treasure of the Nightmare Suppressor Clan, a true Emperor-grade weapon!

It was said that the green eyeball embedded into the treasure originated from a great demon emperor, and it possessed the frightening power of capturing souls and annihilating spirits.

A treasure of such a grade was extremely rare even in the seven major factions.

Therefore, no one expected that Helian Qi would bring an Emperor weapon to the Dao Debate Contest of Cloud State!

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes slightly, inwardly alarmed. The aura around the weapon was extremely strange and eerie that it made his skin creep.

“Eliminate!”

Helian Qi made his move. A blood-red halberd slashed through the air, creating a streak of blood-red light that dyed the void a rich blood-red shade.

Hu— hu— hu—

Ghost-like wailing and howling resounded throughout the world as the green eyeball suddenly spun around in the blood-red halberd.

Shua!

A ray of green divine light flashed out and with a light sweep, the nearby space silently shattered into multiple parts, collapsed, and sank.

With a flash, Lin Xun evaded the attack, but the area he originally stood had been wiped out and replaced by an expanse of striking blood-redness that emitted a frightening destructive aura.

Many people gasped; the Nightmare Suppressor Halberd’s power was bizarre!

“Eliminate!”

Helian Qi, hair whipping around his face, came charging at Lin Xun again like a demon.

The short blood-red halberd swung up, shooting rays of divine green light across the battlefield. The air was instantly torn and collapsed like paper.

Chi!

While dodging, Lin Xun slammed a fist at a beam of oncoming green light.

The two collided. His domineering and powerful fist power was easily pierced and disintegrated like it was being corroded.

The green light continued unabated, aiming straight for Lin Xun!

Lin Xun raised his eyebrows and dodged the attack once again.

“Jin Duyi, are you not very strong, so why are you just avoiding my attacks?” Helian Qi roared, looking arrogant and fierce.

In his hand, the blood-red halberd was glowing a blood-colored hue and beamed divine green lights, amplifying his terrifying imposing bearing even more.

Many people tensed up.

The Nightmare Suppressor Halberd was too powerful and frightening. It greatly made up for Helian Qi’s weaker strength and even posed a threat to Jin Duyi!

Moreover, although the battlefield was tremendous, it was still a limited space. While Helian Qi repeatedly launched full power attacks, the space left for Jin Duyi to dodge was constantly shrinking.

He would be put into an incredibly dangerous situation once there was no more place for him to hide and dodge.

“I didn’t expect Helian Qi to actually bring such a powerful weapon. Is he not worried that he would be targeted by an Emperor and have his treasure taken away?” Someone’s eyes flashed.

The Nightmare Suppressor Halberd was a treasure that could flutter even the hearts of Emperor Stage cultivators!

“Who would dare to snatch it in front of everyone? Also, since Helian Qi dared to bring this treasure here, I bet he has a trick up his sleeve.” freewēbnoveℓ.com

“I’m curious, if Jin Duyi fails like this...he would likely be extremely frustrated and depressed, right?”

There was a clamor of discussion.

Originally, no one had high hopes for Helian Qi to win, thinking that he was no match for Lin Xun. However, after witnessing the astonishing power of the Nightmare Suppressor Halberd, everyone couldn’t help but feel nervous for Lin Xun.

Weapons and treasures were external objects, but they were also a kind of strength!

Sometimes, powerful treasures were enough to turn one’s situation around and reverse life and death!

Just like now, Helian Qi, relying on the power of the Nightmare Suppressor Halberd, managed to turn the disadvantage around and gain the upper hand.

The audience was discussing the battle endlessly, but Lin Xun who was on the battlefield seemed surprisingly calm.

If he wanted to win, he could bring out either the Three Thousand Vicissitudes, Dao Endless Pagoda or even the Dao Immeasurable Bottle to easily crush the Nightmare Suppressor Halberd!

However, he did not want to expose those trump cards.

Li Xuanwei had specifically reminded him that the Well-Wishing Dao Robe could hide his identity when he participated in the Dao Debate Contest, but it could not conceal the auras of treasures such as the Dao Endless Pagoda.

Therefore, he must not bring them out.

Even so, Lin Xun was not the least worried. In addition to those treasures, he also had the transformed Broken Blade, which had formed one hundred Natal Treasure Runes!

Adding to that, only cultivators at the Emperor Stage could unleash the true power of Emperor weapons and treasures.

If the Nightmare Suppressor Halberd was equipped by an Emperor, Lin Xun would have already been killed in the first moment without even the chance to dodge.

Fortunately, Helian Qi was not an Emperor, but a Supreme Saint-King and could only manipulate a limited portion of the Nightmare Suppressor Halberd’s true power.

Moreover, Emperor treasures must not be activated as one wished. After all, it consumed a huge amount of strength.

Helian Qi would not be able to hold on for long!

This was the reason for Lin Xun’s confidence.

Of course, if he fought with his full power, he was confident that he could defeat Helian Qi, but he thought it was unnecessary. Helian Qi was not worth him going all out!

Time went by.

On the battlefield, Lin Xun constantly dodged the attacks and never struck back.

On the other hand, Helian Qi was forging ahead like he was invincible. His display of strength, might, and fierceness drawing exclamations of amazement.

But the influential figures gradually realized that although Lin Xun appeared to be at a disadvantage, he actually had opportunities to counterattack from the very beginning.

On the contrary, Helian Qi, who was giving it his all and seemed to be unstoppable, in truth, despite relentless attacks, had never got the upper hand.

After a while, his strength was bound to be exhausted!

Sure enough, before long, the spectators noticed Helian Qi’s power had diminished massively, the color was drained from his face, and his forehead was beaded with sweat.

The power of the Nightmare Suppressor Halberd was not as strong as before...

It was at this moment that Lin Xun, who had only been dodging all this time, suddenly charged forward like a flash of light..

With a dull collision, Helian Qi was suddenly slammed to the ground.

Bang!

The battlefield quaked. Helian Qi grunted in pain as he lay on the ground with blood gushing from his mouth and nostrils.

The Nightmare Suppressor Halberd flew out from his grip and clattered to the ground.

At that moment, Lin Xun seized the opportunity, raised his fist and crushed the opponent in one move, winning an overwhelming victory!

The entire place fell utterly silent.

Many people felt a chill in their hearts. Helian Qi’s strength was already rather impressive, and he also brought out an Emperor-grade demonic weapon. Even so, he was still overpowered in the end!

“A treasure that does not have someone with the ability to match it can never unleash its greatest power…” someone sighed.

Many gazes changed when they looked at Lin Xun.

He either did nothing or if he acted, it was a deadly blow that utterly crushed the opponent. Jin Duyi was indeed powerful to an astonishing degree.

After a while, Helian Qi dismally accepted his defeat. He glared resentfully at Lin Xun and gnashed his teeth in hatred while sending a voice transmission, “Jin Duyi, just you wait!”

Then, he got up and left.

“Your weapon is not bad. Keep it safe, I might borrow it to play with next time we meet.” Lin Xun smiled as he returned the voice transmission message.

Helian Qi froze as he was walking away as his heart filled with a mixture of resentment and anger. That guy actually has his eyes on my treasure. This is going too far!

The sect master of the Great Void Sect, Guan Xu, stepped forward and announced the result of the first match, “I declare Jin Duyi the winner and Helian Qi is eliminated. The next match will be between Wu Huang and Rong Yinyue!”

Lin Xun left the battlefield, found an area to sit down and rest quietly.

On the battlefield, the duel between Wu Huang and Rong Yinyue had already started and very quickly, the outcome of the match was decided.

Without any surprises, Wu Huang defeated Rong Yinyue and won an absolute crushing victory.

In the third match, Lu Dubu faced off against Liu Xiaokui and won.

In the fourth match…

As time went by, matches unfolded one after another. Each one was spectacular and enthralled the audience.

During this process, Lin Xun had also been watching the matches, observing and analyzing the fighting techniques and styles of every expert.

His attention increased when extraordinary characters such as Wu Huang, Lu Dubu, Xie Yuhua, Wang Tu and Su Muhan appeared.

Two hours later.

The twenty-four matches between the forty-eight participants all ended, and in the end, twenty-four, including Lin Xun, were allowed to progress to the next round.

Jintian Xuanyue also successfully entered the next round because she received a bye.

The remaining twenty-four people were all eliminated!
