"Oh ~ ~ ~ ~"
As the referee spread his arms apart, deafening cheers rang out from the surroundings of the stage, resounding throughout the entire Secret Battalion. Even the people outside the Secret Battalion could clearly hear it.
At this moment, some of the veterans who had been in the Secret Battalion for a few years couldn't help but look in the direction of the examination ground. They already knew that the most anticipated battle for the top scorer had begun. Only the final battle could cause such a commotion.
"I wonder which continent's mortal will be able to obtain the top scorer position this time," said a veteran who was patrolling the city wall to the soldier beside him.
"Is there even a need to guess? It's definitely someone from the Ironblood Continent," said the soldier without hesitation.
"If this continues, the Secret Battalion will soon become an Ironblood Continent."
"If I knew that this place would turn out like this, I might as well have stayed in my continent and become the overlord."
After hearing the soldier's words, the old soldier who asked the question earlier also nodded in agreement. However, he then sighed in resentment. Helplessness was engraved on his face that had already gone through the vicissitudes of life.
"That's right. In this kind of place where the strong are as numerous as the clouds and experts are as numerous as the rain, the talent that we were so proud of back then is actually this weak." Seeing the old soldier sigh, the slightly younger soldier also let out a long sigh emotionally.
They were ordinary soldiers who were ordered about like grandchildren in the Secret Battalion. Back then, every single one of them was an all-powerful figure in the Mortal World. When they first came to the Asura Continent, they all had great ambitions and thought that they could make a name for themselves. But who would have thought that the ending that awaited them would be to spend their lives in mediocrity?
"Oh ~ ~ ~"
"Aooo ~ ~ ~"
Outside the examination ground, many veterans sighed in their hearts. However, the examination ground was filled with cheers and the atmosphere was like a rainbow, because the most exciting battle for the top scorer position was currently unfolding.
* whoosh *
Almost at the same time that the referee announced the start of the examination, Hao Yan's figure flashed. Accompanied by a light breeze, he disappeared.
"So fast!"
Faced with Hao Yan's sudden disappearance, Xing Jue didn't dare to be careless. At the same time that the Imperial Wind Technique rose under his feet, his figure suddenly turned and started to move to the side. He could already sense that Hao Yan was right behind him.
Buzz!
As expected, when Xing Jue turned around, Hao Yan was waving his right arm and attacking Xing Jue. In his right hand, he was actually holding a giant axe.
Zi! Zi! Zi!
The surface of the gigantic axe was covered with deep blue lightning snakes. As the lightning snakes surged, they emitted ear-piercing low cries. Even the surrounding air had undergone a slight change. This was actually a Spiritual Artifact. Furthermore, it was a Low Grade Spiritual Artifact of the highest quality. Haoyan had actually taken out a Spiritual Artifact when he was launching such an attack at Xing Jue.
"Buzz, buzz ~"
Although Hao Yan's speed was as fast as lightning, Xing Jue's speed was also comparable to that of lightning. Even though Hao Yan's attacks were very compact, Xing Jue was not nervous at all. As he dodged, he clenched his hands tightly, and two Rising Dragon Soul Slaying Swords were condensed. As he waved his arms, two gorgeous Rising Dragon Soul Spreading Swords brought along two gorgeous rays of light as they chopped towards the huge axe in Hao Yan's hands.
Bang!
The three blades collided, and a thunderous sound instantly rang out. At this moment, deep blue lightning snakes surged in all directions. As for Xing Jue, he was sent flying by the powerful force. After landing on the ground, he was only able to stabilize his body after taking over ten steps back.
"You really do have some skills."
Looking at his empty hands, the corner of Xing Jue's mouth involuntarily formed into an excited smile. The Rising Dragon Soul Slaying Sword was a martial skill that Xing Jue had created based on the Supreme Sword Technique. It was comparable to a High Earth Rank Martial Skill.
However, such a powerful Martial Skill was repelled by Hao Yan with a single strike. Even Xing Jue's palms were burned by lightning snakes. Furthermore, this was the damage Xing Jue suffered under the protection of the Dragonscale Armour.
Although with Xing Jue's current strength, he was unable to bring out the full potential of the Spiritual Weapon in the Asura Continent. However, the effect of the Spiritual Weapon was not small.
Previously, if the Dragonscale Armour did not emit a golden light to protect Xing Jue when the lightning snakes approached, Xing Jue's palms would have been burnt black. From this, it could be seen that Hao Yan's strength was not to be underestimated.
"If I continue to hold back, I won't let you have the chance to attack."
Just at this moment, a chilling light flashed past. The lightning serpent that occupied the stage condensed into a curve and poured into the huge axe. At this moment, Haoyan was using his bloodshot eyes to stare at Xing Jue.
"Heh, since it's like this, I'll let you experience my Spiritual Weapon." Seeing this, Xing Jue chuckled. Then, a black light burst out from his right palm.
"Bang!" With a flick of Xing Jue's wrist, a huge Blade of Asura was thrust into the hard surface of the stage.
"What is this? Don't tell me you want to use this nondescript thing to fight against my Violent Lightning Axe? "
Sweeping a glance at the Blade of Asura in Xing Jue's hand, Hao Yan frowned and revealed a displeased expression. He discovered that the Blade of Asura in Xing Jue's hand did not have a trace of spiritual energy. Not to mention a Spiritual Weapon with a Weapon Spirit, it could not even be considered a Treasure Weapon.
"Heh, are you looking down on my Blade of Asura?"
"Then I'll let you see for yourself whether or not my Blades of Asura are a nondescript thing."
"Swoosh!"
In response to Hao Yan's questioning, Xing Jue smiled strangely. Then, he suddenly took a step forward and his entire body shot out.
"Huhuhu ~"
The Asura in his hand turned into a black wheel. As it spun rapidly, it set off gusts of wind. As it surged, it was even more imposing. The aura it gave off was actually not the slightest bit inferior to a Spiritual Weapon.
"It is indeed strange, but … it is still too weak."
Facing Xing Jue's frontal attack, Hao Yan let out a cold snort. As he waved his arm, countless deep blue lightning snakes surged out from his axe and swept towards Xing Jue in an overwhelming manner.
He did not hold back at all in this attack. He used the spirit weapon in his hand to its limit. Even a mid-level Battle-Saint would not dare to be careless against this kind of attack. If he used it against Xing Jue, he was confident that he could defeat Xing Jue in one strike.
"Break Slash."
"Bang."
However, just when he thought that the battle was over, he heard Xing Jue's voice. The majestic lightning snakes actually exploded in an instant. Violent energy ripples engulfed more than half of the arena, blocking Hao Yan's line of sight.
"This is?"
When the dark blue and dark red energy ripples dissipated, he was shocked to find that the previously ordinary Blades of Asura in Xing Jue's hand were actually surrounded by a layer of dark red gas.
The dark red gas was like a flame that slowly rose around the dark black Blades of Asura. Although it was very similar to Battle Qi, there was a difference that he could not clearly describe. At this moment, the power that the Blades of Asura emitted was actually not the slightest bit weaker than this Spiritual Weapon of his.
The Blades of Asura was a unique treasure sword. It was refined by Xing Jue according to the Supreme Sword Technique. The Blades of Asura was originally a sturdy blunt weapon. However, as long as it was fused with a condensing type martial skill (Rising Dragon Soul Severing Blade), it would become abnormally powerful.
This kind of power would also increase as Xing Jue's strength increased. Today, Xing Jue even discovered that when he fused his soul force and Battle Qi into the Blades of Asura, the power of the Blades of Asura was already comparable to a Spiritual Weapon.
"This time, it is my turn."
* whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh *
Suddenly, Xing Jue waved his right arm. Numerous dark red crescent blades burst out from the Blades of Asura. Like a rainstorm that covered the sky, they attacked Haoyan in an airtight manner. The power contained within the dark red light blades was extremely terrifying. It was so terrifying that Haoyan did not dare to be careless. This was naturally the Shattering Chop that Xing Jue had created.
"Violent Thunder Axe."
As expected, in the face of Xing Jue's attack, Haoyan, who had an arrogant aura, finally became serious. He gripped the Violent Lightning Axe tightly with both hands and the powerful Battle Qi in his body began to rapidly pour into the axe. At that moment, the lightning snakes on the Violent Lightning Axe increased by several times.
* Roar *
When the dark blue lightning serpents condensed to a certain degree, they actually let out a roar that sounded like a Magical Beast. That was the sound that the Violent Thunder Axe's weapon spirit made.
Due to the fact that the Asura Continent contained the Power of Asura, the weapon spirits hidden within the Spiritual Weapons were greatly restricted. They were no longer able to emerge from the Spiritual Weapons. However, after receiving the infusion of power from their masters, they were able to display their greatest potential.
* Roar ~ *
The dark blue lightning serpents burst out from the Violent Thunder Axe. They actually condensed into a giant lightning serpent that was close to the shape of a snake. The giant lightning serpent opened its bloody mouth that flickered with lightning and violently pounced towards the Shattering Chop that Xing Jue had sent out.
* bang bang bang bang bang! *
The two powerful attacks collided. In an instant, lightning flashed in all directions. Ripples overflowed and deafening booms resounded without end. The hundred-meter-long arena was already completely covered by dense ripples and rolling dust.
At this moment, the audience outside the arena was even more excited. They stared unblinkingly at the arena. They did not even dare to blink their eyes, deeply afraid that they would miss the most exciting scene.
At this moment, the assessment arena that was previously boiling with excitement was abnormally silent. There was no noise, no cheers. It was so quiet that only the breathing of the audience could be heard.
* huff huff huff *
Finally, after the energy ripples dissipated, a gentle breeze blew past. The smoke that densely covered the high platform started to slowly dissipate. At this moment, two figures faintly appeared in the eyes of the audience.
Although they were still unable to clearly see their appearances and characteristics, everyone was able to see that at this moment, there was only one figure standing on the high platform. Below that figure, there was another figure lying on the ground.
"Looks like the victor has been determined."
Looking at the scene on the high platform, the Head Captain of the Iron Blood Continent revealed a complacent smile. That was because he was certain that the victor was definitely his Iron Blood Continent's Haoyan.
"Hmph!"
Sweeping a glance at the elderly face that was brimming with confidence, the two elders from the Lightning Continent and the Misty Continent revealed displeased expressions. That was because they did not understand Xing Jue. However, they understood the elderly beside them very well. Since he was this confident, it meant that Haoyan had indeed won this time.
