War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

How could Su Li not be shocked that the seemingly goofy Tang San Pao was the Title Temple’s hidden ace and was as strong as a Six Star God of War? He instinctively turned to look at Tang San Pao and discovered Tang San Pao and Duan Ling Tian seemed to be engaged in a staring match. Moreover, the Tang San Pao now was like a completely different person from before.

Bang!

A loud explosion pulled Su Li back to his senses. The sound was from the ongoing battle between Sima Rui and Zhong Gui Yu, who were both ranked 7th and 2nd respectively.

At this time, Duan Ling Tian finally looked away from Tang San Pao. His expression was just like before. He did not feel much after discovering Tang San Pao was the Title Temple’s ace. At most, he felt slightly proud he was able to figure out the identity of the Title Temple’s ace. He thought Tang San Pao must have approached them to investigate their strength even if it was not the entire reason.

“Sima Rui isn’t doing well… He’s losing!”

Duan Ling Tian overheard someone saying those words and focused his attention on the match.

Just as that person had said, Sima Rui was losing his fight against Zhong Gui Yu. After exchanging another ten more moves, Sima Rui finally surrendered.

With that, Hong Yuan and Sima Rui, the two young geniuses groomed by the Title Temple, lost their respective matches.

Subsequently, Xu Kong Hai, the Vice Temple Master of the Title Temple, said again, “Ling Jue Yun, the 6th participant, please step forward.”

With these words, everyone shifted their attention from Zhong Gui Yu to Ling Jue Yun, who was flying into the battle ring, immediately.

Before Ling Jue Yun left, he looked at Duan Ling Tian meaningfully.

As though he was responding to Ling Jue Yun’s Voice Transmission, Duan Ling Tian smiled faintly and said, “Yes.”

Swoosh!

After Ling Jue Yun entered the battle ring, Xu Kong Hai, whose expression was no longer as cold and solemn as it was during Hong Yuan and Sima Rui’s matches, said to Ling Jue Yun, “Pick your opponent.”

Ling Jue Yun’s voice rang in the venue. “Huang Quan An.”

These three words caused everyone to fall silent immediately.

When some of the spectators regained their senses, some of them even rose to their feet subconsciously and exclaimed, “Ling Jue Yun is challenging Huang Quan An!”

“Is he confident about defeating Huang Quan An or is he just trying to probe Huang Quan An’s strength?”

“Is there a need to probe Huang Quan An’s strength? Huang Quan An has already shown he has mastered the law of time’s Instant Vicissitudes Of Life. Just that alone confirms he’s invincible among those weaker than a Six Star God of War. If Ling Jue Yun isn’t as strong as a Six Star God of War, it’d be impossible for him to defeat Huang Quan An!”

“Then, does this mean Ling Jue Yun is as strong as a Six Star God of War?!”

“Not necessarily. Perhaps, he just wants to try his luck?”

Apart from the young geniuses, some of the Heavenly Emperors and the high-ranking officials of the Title Temple branches were shocked by Ling Jue Yun’s choice of opponent as well. So far, Ling Jue Yun had only displayed the strength of a top Five Star God of War, and based on his matches, it did not seem like he was still holding back his strength. They wondered if he was truly as strong as a Six Star God of War or if he was just trying his luck.

“What do you think?”

“I am not sure… Let’s just watch and see how it’ll turn out.”

Many Heavenly Emperors shook their heads, uncertain. They did not dare to come up with a conclusion in case they were proven wrong later.

Amogoo, the Temple Master of the Title Temple in the Wind Prop Heaven who was an Eight Star God of War, shook his head when he looked at Ling Jue Yun. ‘Everyone says Duan Ling Tian and Su Li have heaven-defying talents for possessing such a strength when they’re not even 700 years old… If only they know that Ling Jue Yun is also less than 700 years old…’

Amogoo’s eyes shone with anticipation as he continued thinking to himself, ‘I’ve not lived in vain being able to find such a talent to participate in the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses. Among all the participants I’ve brought to the Battles of the Geniuses in the past, the strongest among them was only comparable to a top Five Star God of War. It’s my first time encountering someone as powerful as Ling Jue Yun… I wonder if he really possesses the strength of a Six Star God of War… If he does, I’ll be able to wear this as a badge of honor for the rest of my life…’

Swoosh!

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Huang Quan flew into the battle ring and stood across from Ling Jue Yun. He looked at Ling Jue Yun solemnly; it was clear he did not dare to underestimate Ling Jue Yun.

Meanwhile, the spectators looked at the two opponents in the battle ring unblinkingly, afraid they would miss even the slightest detail of the match.

“This is probably the most exciting match to happen since the start of the Battle of the Geniuses…”

At the same time, Ding Fu, the Heavenly Emperor of the Primeval Heaven, looked at Feng Qing Yang, who was seated across from him, and asked with a smile, “Brother Feng, Ling Jue Yun is Junior Nephew Duan’s good friend. You should know something about his strength. Do you think he’ll win this match?”

Feng Qing Yang shook his head slightly and said, “Although he’s Little Tian’s friend, I’ve yet to meet him personally so I can’t say for sure. However, since he dares to challenge Huang Quan An, it means he’s confident. Naturally, there’s also a possibility he’s just trying his luck. After all, it won’t affect him much even if he loses the match…”

If Ling Jue Yun lost, at most, he would not be able to challenge Huang Quan An again. He would still be able to challenge the others. Naturally, there was a risk that he would be severely injured to the point where it would affect his later matches. This was one of the reasons why many people dared not challenge Huang Quan An; if they lost, they would be affected later on. For this reason, many people admired Ling Jue Yun’s courage in challenging Huang Quan An.

Back in the battle ring.

“You should attack now,” Ling Jue Yun said indifferently, “Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t have a chance to attack later.”

Everyone broke into an uproar again when they heard Ling Jue Yun’s words. Many of them were skeptical. After all, they had all seen how powerful Huang Quan An’s law of time and the Vicissitudes of Life were. Although Ling Jue Yun had proven powerful as well, in comparison, his attacks were not as terrifying as Huang Quan An’s.

“Alright.” Huang Quan An nodded solemnly. Unlike the others, he did not underestimate Ling Jue Yun. Hence, he mustered up all his energy and launched his attack. The energy shrouded Ling Jue Yun in just an instant.

Everyone watched as Ling Jue Yun seemed to be frozen in time.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

As soon as Huang Quan An immobilized Ling Jue Yun, he shot out two rays of light from his eyes.

Chills ran up everyone’s spines as they watched this familiar scene.

This attack was the law of time’s Instant Vicissitudes Of Life. It was the move that rendered Yu Dong Fang and Zhong Gui Yu defenseless.

“Can Ling Jue Yun withstand this attack?”

Many people stared at the unmoving Ling Jue Yun.

“The attack’s about to land!”

“It’ll be over if the attack lands!”

“Is Ling Jue Yun going to lose so easily?”

Everyone watched with bated breath as Huang Quan An’s attack entered Ling Jue Yun’s body.

Ling Jue Yun’s body trembled slightly as soon as the attack entered his body.

“It’s over!”

“Ling Jue Yun is doomed!”

Everyone was certain Ling Jue Yun had lost. Only a handful of people like Duan Ling Tian remained vigilant.

Similarly, Huang Quan An did not let down his guard. In fact, he looked even tenser.

However, soon enough, everyone discovered something was amiss.

“Eh? What happened?”

“Hey, Ling Jue Yun isn’t aging!”

“What happened?!”

“Previously, Zhong Gui Yu and Yu Dong Fang turned into dying old men soon after the attacks entered their bodies. However, Ling Jue Yun isn’t aging at all. The attack entered his body, right?”

“Look! There’s something strange with Ling Jue Yun’s eyes!”

Soon enough, those with keen eyes noticed Ling Jue Yun’s eyes had turned completely red.
