Although the outcome of the battle was clear, everyone still held their breaths and stared at the arena, waiting for the final result to be revealed.
"Hu ~ ~ ~"
At this moment, a thin breeze blew past again. But even such a gentle breeze was enough to completely blow away the layer of dust that could only cover one's face. And at this moment, the mystery of the winner and loser of this battle finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
However, when everyone saw the faces of the two people lying on the arena and the two people lying at their feet, there was only silence. Everyone was instantly dumbfounded. At this moment, they were truly dumbfounded.
Because the outcome in front of them was the complete opposite of what they had imagined. The man standing on the arena with a carefree smile and looking down on everyone was not Haoyan from the Ironblood Continent, but Xing Jue from the Tianwu Continent!
"Ao ~ ~ ~ ~ ~"
After a moment of silence, suddenly, thunderous cheers rang out. The cheers reverberated in the vast examination field and soared into the sky. The cheers at this moment were several times louder than the cheers at the end of the previous battles. This was because everyone was more excited than before.
Even they themselves did not expect that they would be so excited, so emotional, and so excited when a person they did not think highly of defeated a person they thought highly of.
This was especially true for the ordinary soldiers of the Tianwu Camp. They were at the bottom of the Tianwu Camp. When they saw Xing Jue defeat the invincible people of the Ironblood Continent, they seemed to see the hope of the future, the hope that could change their fate.
"Dark horse, this guy is definitely a dark horse. He's too damn dark!"
At this moment, looking at the Blades of Asura in hand, standing straight on the arena, the protective armor powder on his body emitting a dazzling golden light under the sunlight. Looking at the executions in the surroundings with a smile, a soldier who was close to fifty years old actually had tears flowing down his face. As he wiped away his snot and tears, he praised the executions. People like him were definitely not a small number in the examination grounds at this moment.
Because Xing Jue had subverted their understanding, they, who were used to being obedient, saw hope again. They believed that there were still miracles in this world!!!
"Impossible. How could he defeat Haoyan?"
However, compared to the cheers in the hall, the face of the chief captain from the Ironblood Continent was extremely cold. His previously confident look had been replaced by rage. His old face twitched constantly, and his right hand on the table creaked from the grip. Even the heavy stone table was shaking.
However, the strangest thing was that, at this moment, his gaze was not focused on the victorious Xing Jue. Instead, it was actually Haoyan, who had fainted on the ground with a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth. Moreover, the thing that was extremely inconsistent with his furious face was that his gaze was actually filled with heartache.
"Haozhen, are you unconvinced that your grandson has been defeated?"
At this moment, the old man from the Thunder Continent smiled as he spoke in an extremely mocking manner. The Hao Zhen he spoke of was the name of the old man from the Ironblood Continent.
"You …"
After hearing the mockery from the old man from the Thunder Continent, Haozhen's originally slightly pale face completely turned the colour of paper. As he looked at the old man from the Thunder Continent, his gaze was filled with resentment.
That was because Haoyan was indeed his grandson. However, other than him, even Haoyan did not know about this matter. Yet, the old man from the Thunder Continent actually knew about this secret. From this, it could be seen that he had been targeted by someone since a long time ago.
"Hmph. Whether that Xing Jue cheated or not, this old man will know after I test him."
* bang *
Finally, Haozhen looked at the fainted Haoyan on the ground and was unable to control his rage. With a leap, he charged into the sky, and the powerful force shattered the stone table in front of him.
"This aura …"
At this moment, Xing Jue was smiling as he looked at the audience cheering in his direction, while waiting for the referee's announcement. However, at this moment, he suddenly felt an extremely dangerous aura approaching him at a terrifying speed. This speed was so terrifying that it had reached a point where he could not dodge.
"Spiritual Explosion!"
In such a critical moment, Xing Jue did not have the time to think. He did not even have the time to turn his head around to see who was attacking him. With a thought, he used Spiritual Explosion.
* whoosh *
Just as Xing Jue was about to unleash his Spiritual Explosion, a shriveled palm had already quietly appeared behind him.
* bang *
In the instant that seemingly weak and powerless palm came into contact with Xing Jue, an extremely tyrannical power erupted. Along with a thunderous roar, as boundless dark-red ripples spread out, Xing Jue's body was like an arrow that had left the bow as he shot out explosively.
"Tss! Tss! Tss!"
The powerful force caused Xing Jue to fly several hundred meters away. At this moment, Xing Jue had completely lost his balance. Facing such a situation, the experienced Xing Jue bent his body, forming a half-moon shape. After spinning twice in the air, he regained his balance. However, even so, after landing on the ground, Xing Jue still retreated a dozen meters before he could completely stabilize his body.
At this moment, Xing Jue finally saw the person who had attacked him. It was naturally the head captain of the Divine Secret Unit, Haozhen. Originally, Xing Jue could not understand why the head captain would attack him.
However, when he saw the head captain of the Divine Secret Unit, Haozhen, actually bend down and stuff a pill into Haoyan's mouth, he completely understood. The relationship between the two of them was definitely not simple.
"Hmph, you're actually fine after taking a palm from me. There really is a problem."
"I'd like to see if you can take a second palm from me."
Buzz!
After stuffing the pill into Haoyan's mouth, Haozhen leaped into the air once again. This time, the Battle Qi condensed in his hand was actually several times stronger than before.
Although it was not a martial skill and was purely using the power condensed from Battle Qi, the energy that caused the surrounding air to tremble and emitted ripples of energy was not something that Xing Jue could withstand. This was the huge gap between a high rank Battle-Saint and an initial rank Battle-Saint that could not be made up for.
"Sh * t."
With such a powerful force approaching, Xing Jue felt a fatal danger. Xing Jue had already retracted the power of the soul explosion into his body and quietly stretched out his palm.
Facing such an expert, Xing Jue could not afford to hold back. Only by going all out would he be able to find a chance of survival. He was also waiting for an opportunity. When Haozhen was extremely close to him, he would instantly use the Heaven Rank Martial Skill, Time Space. Then, he would use all his strength to activate the mid-grade Black Curse Longsword and launch his strongest attack.
"Heh, looks like I don't have to risk my life!"
However, when Xing Jue had come up with a counterattack plan, his eyes could not help but light up. Relying on his keen Soul Force, Xing Jue had already sensed that two auras that were not the slightest bit weaker than Haozhen had appeared behind him. Furthermore, their target was not him, but Haozhen.
Swish, swish!
Sure enough, when Xing Jue sensed the two auras, two figures quickly appeared in front of Xing Jue. These two were the other two elders sitting on the high platform. They were Lei Xing from the Thunder Continent and Li Zong from the Misty Continent.
Bang!
After the two of them appeared, they jointly struck out with their palms. Two majestic Battle Qi burst out and instantly bombarded Haozhen's body. Following an ear-piercing explosion, Haozhen was blasted dozens of meters away.
"Lei Xing, Li Zong, you two actually dare to attack this old man!"
Although this attack was no small matter, Lei Xing and Li Zong did not kill him. Therefore, Haozhen had only suffered some superficial injuries. However, seeing him in such a miserable state in front of his subordinates had naturally enraged him.
"Haozhen, because of your personal feelings, you actually want to harm this year's top scorer and kill an outstanding talent of my Divine Secret Battalion. Do you think we will tolerate you?"
"I advise you to stop as soon as possible. Otherwise, don't blame us for not giving you any face and capturing you for the general to deal with!"
Li Zong and Lei Xing were not afraid of Haozhen's anger. Instead, they were secretly delighted. As enemies, what they hoped to see the most was Haozhen's embarrassing appearance.
The unforeseen event in front of them caused everyone in the examination grounds to be greatly shocked. Until now, they still did not understand why the three head captains would attack. However, the only thing they knew was that the reason for the three of them fighting was very likely because of Xing Jue.
The Starfall Empire produced twelve top scorers every year. At the end of the day, it was nothing in the enormous Divine Secret Battalion. However, Xing Jue had actually made the three head captains fight for him. At this moment, Xing Jue's position in everyone's hearts instantly rose to another level. At the very least, he was completely different from the previous top scorers.
"Lei Xing, Li Zong, how arrogant of you!"
However, at this moment, a deep voice suddenly rang out outside the examination grounds. Although this voice was not intentionally shouted out, the deep power was enough to penetrate everyone's eardrums. It even caused their ears to buzz.
"So powerful!"
When this voice rang out, everyone's gazes uniformly turned to the source of the voice. Looking at the middle-aged man in the distance, Xing Jue's expression could not help but change.
It was a well-built man who was more than two meters tall. He had thick eyebrows, big eyes, a long nose, and a wide mouth. His cheeks were covered with a thick beard. The black beard stood up like black needles in his flesh, arranged neatly.
Although the man's appearance was extremely ugly, his aura was incomparably deep. This feeling was similar to the first time Xing Jue met the Soul Eater Witch. There was a world of difference between the two. In short, Xing Jue could be sure of one thing. This person's strength had already surpassed the Battle-Saint level.
"War God!"
Looking at the middle-aged man who could cause the surrounding air to change with every step he took and set off gusts of wind, with hundreds of soldiers following behind him as he walked toward the examination grounds, Xing Jue was almost certain at this moment that this person was definitely a War God expert.
War God was a new term that Xing Jue had only learned after arriving at the Asura Continent. Xing Jue was still unfamiliar with the term War God, but he knew that War God was a level completely above the Battle-Saint level. It was also a level that was very difficult to break through, but extremely powerful. Even in the vast Asura Continent, it was an existence that was as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns.
