Wang Baole was just about to speak when, on the night sky map, the star representing Dugu Lin, who had eliminated Xu Ming, suddenly moved!
It moved at an incredible speed, much faster than when it had charged at Xu Ming. It was heading straight for … the last direct disciple of Feng Qiuran's lineage, Lu Yun!
The distance between the two wasn't too far. The sudden movement was enough to shock the onlookers to the core. As for the people around Dugu Lin, they were even more shocked. As they heard the rumbling of thunder, they also saw Dugu Lin's figure roaring into the distance!
"Dugu Lin, fight again!"
Wang Baole suddenly raised his head and looked at the night sky. Zhao Yameng and Kongdao also focused their gazes. On the night sky map, the star representing Lu Yun, which had been moving slowly, clearly paused. It seemed to have made a decision after a short moment of thought. It changed direction and charged straight for … where Dugu Lin was coming from!
He wasn't running away, nor was he avoiding the battle. He was facing Dugu Lin head-on!
The disciples in the trial grounds could only perceive this scene through the night sky map. They couldn't see it clearly, but to the Dao Palace cultivators outside, who could see what was happening, they were even more shocked.
They saw Dugu Lin charging forward with their own eyes. They saw the fighting spirit in Lu Yun's eyes as he changed direction and charged straight for Dugu Lin. They also saw the distance between the two of them getting shorter and shorter!
It was as if two shooting stars were rapidly approaching each other and were about to collide!
"Huang Yunshan took the initiative to give away the key just now. It must have provoked Dugu Lin and caused him to attack prematurely!"
"Lu Yun actually took the initiative to attack!"
"From the looks of it, Wang Baole's luck is too good. All he needs to do is wait, and he will surely enter the top two!"
Even as the disciples in the outside world were in an uproar, Annihilator's expression improved a bit. Although he still looked a bit grim, his eyes were filled with anticipation. Wang Baole's sudden rise to prominence had changed the outcome of the trial by fire. However, he was still confident that his apprentice, Dugu Lin, would take first place!
Compared to Annihilator, at this moment, Feng Qiuran sighed in her heart. Xu Ming had already teleported back, but he did not stay in the square. The moment he returned, he left immediately. It was obvious that he felt ashamed.
Currently, her only personal disciple was Lu Yun in the trial grounds. Since Huang Yunshan had voluntarily given up, it was clear that the result of this trial was already out. Furthermore, the possibility of any changes occurring was very small.
If there were no accidents, the top three would be Dugu Lin, Wang Baole, and Lu Yun!
However … Dugu Lin's sudden charge and obvious battle intent had already revealed his intentions. He did not want to be in the top three. What he wanted … was to take first place in this trial. There was no second place!
"Dugu Lin!" Feng Qiuran's expression was ugly. She glanced at the Leisurely Taoist out of the corner of her eye, only to discover that his eyes were still closed. Even though his personal disciple had failed, he seemed to have only sighed and did nothing else.
In the silence, Feng Qiuran's heart was filled with complicated emotions. Of the two people she had placed high hopes on, Xu Ming had already been eliminated. Although Lu Yun was not bad, compared to the rising momentum of Dugu Lin, he was still lacking by quite a bit. Moreover, Feng Qiuran could already tell that Dugu Lin … had not used his full strength yet. He was still hiding something.
Hence, the situation of Lu Yun's failure was already clear.
However, Wang Baole from the Federation, whom she did not have high hopes for, had suddenly emerged as a new force to be reckoned with. This was especially so when he defeated Zhou Chudao with the punch of Emperor Armor. Feng Qiuran suddenly felt that perhaps this trial … was prepared for Dugu Lin and Wang Baole. If Dugu Lin won, then from then on, he would be like the sun in the sky among the disciples of the Dao Palace. Even Annihilator's faction would rise to prominence.
Similarly, if Wang Baole won, his status in the Dao Palace would be completely different. Even the other people in the Federation would be able to hold their heads high. It was not to say that there were no Dao Palace disciples who dared to provoke them, but there were very few of them. This was because the Federation … not only did they have a personal disciple, but they also suppressed the disciples of the Dao Palace and became the number one person after Yuanying!
Just like that, as everyone's emotions fluctuated, Dugu Lin and Lu Yun in the image sped up. Finally, after an hour, the two of them suddenly approached each other in the central region of the trial ground. Following a deafening roar, the two of them started fighting!
Unlike when he fought Xu Ming, Dugu Lin's attack was more decisive. Perhaps it was because Lu Yun had taken the initiative to welcome him. As he formed a seal, his aura soared and nine black dragons appeared behind him. They roared and charged towards Lu Yun.
Not many people in the trial ground could see this battle. Only the disciples near the battle could see it from afar. Apart from that, only the Dao Palace disciples in the outside world could see it clearly.
But the more they saw it, the more shocked they were. In fact … as a personal disciple, Lu Yun had already surpassed his peers. To a certain extent, he could already defeat anyone in the Core Formation realm. But in front of Dugu Lin, he was completely suppressed!
From the beginning to the end, Dugu Lin's attacks were only the fists surrounded by the nine black dragons. Just like when he defeated Xu Ming, he did not use any other techniques. He only threw punch after punch, and it was enough to make Lu Yun roar as he was repeatedly smashed down from the sky. After he landed on the ground, he continued to charge forward.
This scene made the Dao Palace disciples in the outside world fall silent. They did not notice that in the distance, the severely injured Xu Ming had returned with the help of his servant. Looking at the two people fighting on the screen, Xu Ming was silent. It was as if he saw himself.
Until … Lu Yun's body was about to collapse and was approaching Xu Ming's final state, Dugu Lin said something similar to what he had said to Xu Ming in mid-air. Lu Yun laughed bitterly and did not avoid the battle. Instead, he charged forward resolutely with madness!
Looking at Lu Yun's figure, Xu Ming's body trembled. What he had not dared to do because of his fear of death, Lu Yun … had done it!
Xu Ming was silent. He closed his eyes bitterly.
The battle between Lu Yun and Dugu Lin ended. As if admiring Lu Yun, Dugu Lin did not throw his final punch. Instead, he turned his fist into a palm and struck Lu Yun down from the sky. After knocking Lu Yun unconscious, he did not attack again.
After the battle ended, the square fell silent for a moment. Annihilator's faction erupted into cheers. Compared to them, whether it was Feng Qiuran's faction or the disciples of Leisurely Taoist's faction, all of them were silent. The shock in their hearts was like a raging sea that could not be calmed.
There was no doubt that Dugu Lin's power was beyond imagination. Regardless of whether his opponent was Xu Ming or Lu Yun, he didn't use a second superpower from the beginning until the end. His punch, which was surrounded by nine dragons, was enough to crush his opponent.
Everyone could tell that Dugu Lin … had not used his full strength. However, no one could guess how much of his true battle strength he had used in these two battles!
"At most … thirty percent!" Xu Ming murmured and turned to leave.
While the people outside were shocked, the disciples in the trial grounds were silent. Wang Baole and the other two resting on the mountain peak also had serious expressions.
"This Dugu Lin is strong, very strong!" Kongdao took a deep breath and said word by word.
"Baole, are you confident?" Zhao Yameng looked at Wang Baole with worry in her eyes.
Wang Baole was silent for a moment. His gaze gradually deepened. A strong desire to battle burned in the depths of his eyes. A smile slowly appeared on his face as he spoke.
"You'll know after the battle." After saying this, Wang Baole closed his eyes and sat down cross-legged. He made sure that he was at the peak of perfection at all times. After this, even if Dugu Lin did not come looking for him, he would go looking for him.
The battle between the two of them would be the end of the trial, as well as the most brilliant pinnacle of the trial!
Dugu Lin didn't want anyone other than first place. Wang Baole … didn't want that either!
Time passed slowly. There were less than ten hours left before the second teleportation. Once again, a storm was brewing in the trial grounds!
The storm was once again being stirred by Dugu Lin. After defeating Lu Yun, he now had more than a hundred keys. However, he didn't stop there. Instead, he began … to clear the area!
His target was none other than the disciples of Feng Qiuran's faction!
Soon, the disciples of Feng Qiuran's faction who were struggling to survive in the trial grounds had no choice but to hand over their keys and become invisible on the map. Looking at the map in the night sky, Dugu Lin had more and more keys, and the scattered keys in the area were decreasing rapidly.
Naturally, the cultivators in the outside world saw this. Although they were shocked, they understood that the law of the jungle had always been a part of the rules, and was slowly becoming the only rule!
