Tyrant Sky Martial Soul

Chapter 1922: Chapter 1925: All Geniuses, All Powerhouses!

”Enough, old man, I won’t argue with you. Since they want to stay, let them stay, the battle continues.”

Xuan Ming thought to himself: Stay and die with you!

The fifth contestant, Lei Lie, was obviously a cautious guy. Although he had the right to choose his opponent, he didn’t pick someone too strong. He even avoided those who were slightly stronger.

He picked the one ranked sixty-fourth directly.

That guy had a bitter look on his face and immediately announced his withdrawal.

In the sixth match, after Sun Leng Chan took the stage, she directly chose a contestant from the Zhengyi Sect.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that she was helping Ling Xiao vent his anger.

Phoenix Feiye eliminated a person from the Heavenly Dynasty Empire, and she helped Ling Xiao eliminate someone from the Zhengyi Sect.

By the seventh match, Joshua Long ascended the stage.

He also chose a martial artist from the Zhengyi Sect.

It was obvious that today, this challenge pit the Heavenly Dynasty Empire against the Zhengyi Sect.

The subsequent challenges weren’t worth mentioning; all the top talents won easily.

Those who could choose opponents with weaker cultivation levels did so.

This not only was to avoid wasting energy but was more importantly to not expose their trump cards.

Facing weaker opponents, the opponent would either directly choose to forfeit or be defeated in one or two moves, leaving their true competitors unable to discern their strength, maintaining an advantage for the upcoming battles.

The ones Ling Xiao was particularly interested in: Princess Consort, Hundred-Eyed Demon King Wu Leonard, Little Dot, Lei Mang, and Lei Tun easily defeated their opponents.

These people all had grudges with Ling Xiao, so if Ling Xiao were to choose an opponent, naturally, he would choose from among them, and paying attention to their battles was only normal.

Even though these people defeated their opponents in one or two moves, he could still discern some clues.

Lei Mang and Lei Tun showed almost no improvement; clearly, the White Tiger Summit was of no help to them.

Especially in the first two battles, they gained no significant benefit.

In contrast, Hundred-Eyed Demon King Wu Leonard, Little Dot, and Princess Consort had made great progress.

They were already considered top-tier existences.

If he were to choose an opponent from these people, the first choice would naturally be either Lei Tun or Lei Mang.

The competition continued, and another martial artist from the Zhengyi Sect took the stage.

This person was relatively high-ranked within the Zhengyi Sect, considered a top ten genius of the sect.

He chose his opponent, still a martial artist from the Heavenly Dynasty Empire—Dan Feng.

Of course, he could have chosen Fengming Lian or Ji Luoyu, who were weaker.

But as a top ten martial artist of the Zhengyi Sect, he held to a sense of pride even if it wasn’t worth much.

He felt that would bring ridicule.

Moreover, he believed that choosing Dan Feng, he could still defeat him.

However, picking an opponent after number ten, the opponent could refuse unless there was a gap of twenty or more ranks, in which case they must accept the battle.

According to the rules, if Dan Feng avoided the battle, there was nothing he could do.

But Dan Feng did not refuse.

Within the Heavenly Dynasty Empire, apart from Ling Xiao, Dan Feng believed he was the strongest in actual combat capability.

Even ahead of Joshua Long and Leng Mei.

Even though his cultivation level wasn’t very high, he’d fought many battles, and defeating a stronger opponent as a weaker one was nothing new to him.

Especially after the first two battles, he perfectly inherited the traitor’s legacy.

Now not only had his cultivation level broken through to the sixteenth layer of the Yin-Yang Realm, but his overall combat power had also surged.

His cultivation level was originally higher than Ling Xiao’s, and although this advantage was shrinking, he could still maintain it for the moment.

This was the only area where he could still surpass Ling Xiao.

Dan Feng also possessed a Heart of the Strong, a Heart of a Genius.

He wanted to prove that he, too, was a pillar of the Heavenly Dynasty Empire, not just there to spectate.

”You dare come up?”

The tenth genius of the Zhengyi Sect was quite surprised.

Because previously, when Zhengyi Sect martial artists challenged people from the Heavenly Dynasty Empire, their opponents directly conceded.

How come it changed with him?

”Are you looking down on me? Although I’m only ranked tenth, I’m not necessarily weaker than the Seven Sons.”

He looked at Dan Feng and said coldly.

”So what? Even if you challenge me, I won’t refuse the battle, just like I wouldn’t refuse Phoenix Feiye.”

Dan Feng said calmly.

He was that kind of person; don’t forget, he once suppressed Fengming Qishan on the Divine Phoenix Continent.

Ranked first on the Dragon and Phoenix List, he had often ventured to train on the White Tiger Continent.

Although his brilliance was overshadowed by Ling Xiao’s rise, no one dared to underestimate him.

”You really talk big without a plan! I advise you to surrender quickly, otherwise, once the battle starts, I will not give you any chance to concede!”

The tenth genius of the Zhengyi Sect also held the glory of a disciple of the sect.

He looked at Dan Feng, hoping he would concede.

This would not only display his powerful authority and dominance but also reduce some consumption for himself, all benefits without loss.

If it were only consumption, it would be fine, but injuries were the main concern.

That could affect future battles.

According to the rules of the Battle of the Kings, advancing each round grants better rewards.

This tenth genius naturally wanted to win without a fight, for as the competition progressed, stronger opponents could be encountered, and he needed to maintain peak fighting capability.

”Want to kill me?”

Dan Feng sneered, ”Originally, I just wanted to defeat you, but if you want to kill me, don’t expect mercy from me.”

Despite his calm demeanor, Dan Feng was also a decisive person.

If the opponent didn’t attempt to kill him, he naturally wouldn’t go overboard.

But if the opponent wanted to kill him, he surely wouldn’t hold back.

”Incurable obstinacy!”

The tenth genius of the Zhengyi Sect decided not to persuade Dan Feng anymore. He wanted to eliminate him with the shortest time and least effort.

”Heh.”

Dan Feng laughed coldly and stepped forward, causing a gale to swirl up, with the entire arena echoing with the sound of the roaring wind.

At that moment, everyone was stunned.

”This guy is not simple!”

Phoenix Feiye squinted his eyes and said, ”Although his cultivation level is not as high as that of the Tenth Junior Brother, his mastery in using power is exceptional.

Historically, martial artists’ efficiency in converting inner strength to attack and defense has never exceeded seventy percent.

A lot of inner strength is consumed during conversion.

The conversion efficiency for most martial artists is below fifty percent, while those skilled can reach fifty to sixty percent.

Very few martial artists can reach seventy percent, and beyond that, it’s impossible.

Tenth Junior Brother’s conversion efficiency is about fifty-five percent, but Dan Feng’s efficiency reaches seventy percent.

Purely in terms of inner strength usage technique, this person is an extraordinary talent.”

Even though Dan Feng was considered an enemy, Phoenix Feiye had to admit that Dan Feng’s talent in certain aspects was truly terrifying.

No wonder this person had long dominated the first spot on the Dragon and Phoenix List, and even as he roamed the White Tiger Continent alone, he hadn’t been killed.
