There was a young man in white opposite Lin Huang.
He looked older than Lin Huang, he was about 16 or 17 years old. He was not tall, only 1.7 meters tall. His hair was long enough to reach his cheeks. He tied a small braid at the back of his head while the front part of his hair was messy.
However, Lin Huang had to admit that he was handsome. He would definitely be one of the most handsome young men on Earth. The most unique thing about him was that his eyes were not big but they were long and narrow. He had a unique evil aura.
Lin Huang noticed that there was a long sword hanging on his waist. Judging from the width of the scabbard, it seemed different from a regular sword. It must have been specially forged for a unique sword skill.
After sizing it up, Lin Huang came to the conclusion that it was very powerful! He sensed a dangerous aura coming from him. It was the first time he had such a feeling ever since he entered the ring.
Lin Huang had no idea who he was but almost everyone in the audience knew who he was.
After he was teleported to the arena, the audience seats around the arena reached a full capacity of 10,000 people in less than three seconds.
"Who's this kid in a mask? Why is he challenging Master White? "Someone asked.
"He didn't challenge Master White. Master White was chosen by the system to be the keeper of the 50th round. That's why he was sent here," someone explained.
"How is that possible?! The keeper of the 50th round has always been between the 50th to the 100th place on the leaderboard. In the past, there were only two to three times where a person who was ranked in the 30s was chosen. However, Master White was ranked 18th on the leaderboard! How could he be chosen to be the keeper of the 50th round?! "Someone could not believe it.
"In the past, there were only people who were ranked in the 30s who were chosen to be the keeper. I guess it's because Sword Genius is too powerful. However, the system is cruel. Master White was sent here to be the keeper. I guess Sword Genius's winning streak will come to an end … "
After sizing him up, Lin Huang checked his opponent's battle record.
"Nickname: Master White"
"Combat Strength: Silver-Level Rank-3"
[Battle count: 1273]
[Accumulated Points: 8,761]
[Winning Percentage: 98%]
His opponent had already fought more than a thousand battles, and his points and winning rate in the arena were frighteningly high. Coupled with the number of spectators outside the arena, although Lin Huang did not know who the other party was, he knew that the other party was definitely a celebrity on the sixth floor of the arena.
"So, the system purposely chose a formidable obstacle for me as the guardian this time?" The corners of Lin Huang's lips curled up slightly. He also knew that there would always be a powerful guardian in the fiftieth round and beyond.
Lin Huang did not dare to be careless when he saw the long blade at his opponent's waist. He quickly took out a Silver-tier Combat Sword.
"Sword Genius has finally taken out his sword!" Some of the spectators exclaimed. It was obvious that they had been paying attention to Lin Huang. They knew that Lin Huang had never used a sword in his previous battles.
There were a few of Lin Huang's previous opponents among the spectators. They had been watching Lin Huang's battle ever since they were defeated. Among them were Mad Tiger, who was defeated by Lin Huang not long ago, and White Spear and the rest who were defeated by Lin Huang.
Seeing that Lin Huang had finally taken out his battle sword, the rest of them looked upset. It was obvious that Lin Huang did not use his full strength when he fought them earlier.
"A sword cultivator, interesting …" Master White was not surprised when he saw Lin Huang taking out his sword. He squinted his eyes and looked at Lin Huang again.
Lin Huang just stood there casually. He did not look sad or happy, just like a rock.
The ten seconds countdown on top of the ring soon hit zero.
Almost at the moment when the number jumped to 0, Master White suddenly moved. Nobody knew when he unsheathed his sword and almost instantly, he crossed the distance of tens of meters and arrived in front of Lin Huang.
He smirked at Lin Huang. A cold gleam flashed through the air with the long, narrow silver blade in his hand. He pointed it at Lin Huang's throat at a speed faster than his footsteps.
"That's fast!" That was the only word that could describe how the spectators felt when they saw the sword.
Many of them even put themselves in Lin Huang's shoes. Soon, they broke out in cold sweat because they realized that they could not react in time at all.
Only the golden-robed man was still sitting upright. He did not seem to think that Lin Huang would be defeated by the sword.
The sword was indeed extremely fast. Even Lin Huang was not as fast as it was.
Master White's talent was obviously in speed. Coupled with the sword skill that focused on speed, it was indeed a good match. Needless to say, he had even changed the shape of his sword to increase the speed of his attack. He made the sword longer and narrower. Even the curve of the blade was adjusted to reduce the air resistance and maximize the speed of the sword.
If it had been in the past, Lin Huang might have lost the rhythm of the battle. He would have used his fast sword skills to fight speed with speed. If that was the case, Lin Huang who did not have much of an advantage in speed would be dragged down by him and he would definitely lose the battle. However, Lin Huang was no longer the Lin Huang of the past. Seeing the sword coming at him at an extremely fast speed, he became calmer and stood still.
Only when the sword was about to slice open his throat did he suddenly use the Cloudstream Steps, barely dodging the attack. At the same time, he unsheathed his sword and the Great Sword Scripture slashed towards his opponent's waist.
The reason why he waited until this moment to attack was that his opponent had no chance to turn back. If he had attacked a second earlier, 'Master White' could have changed his move at any time.
Lin Huang had purposely created an illusion that his opponent's sword was too fast and he could not react in time. Then, he suddenly attacked when he was about to finish his move.
"Master Bai" saw that his sure-kill attack had failed, and a trace of astonishment flashed through his eyes. The tip of his sword had already cut a trace of blood on Lin Huang's neck. He did not expect Lin Huang to dodge his attack and even counterattack.
However, he knew that it was too late.
He had lost and he had lost to the speed that he was most proud of. If he had been slower, the result would not have been so irreversible.
The next moment, Lin Huang and 'Master White' passed by each other. There was a trace of blood on the blade of the silver sword in his hand.
Master White's body suddenly stopped moving. After a while, blood spurted out from his waist and his upper body slowly slid down to the ground.
Tens of thousands of spectators looked at the scene in shock. Many of them were stunned.
Yes, 'Master White' who was ranked 18th on the sixth floor of the arena was cut in half at the waist!
This was a huge shock to everyone.
They only realized that they were not dreaming when the words' Sword Genius wins' were displayed on the top of the arena.
Everything that happened in the arena just now was real!
'Master White' really lost. He was killed in one hit, he was cut in half at the waist!
"Congratulations, player 'Sword Genius' has won the battle!"
"You killed your opponent in one hit, you have obtained 2 points!"
Lin Huang was still expressionless when he saw the notification.
After a while, a different system notification was heard in the sky.
"Congratulations to player 'Sword Genius' for defeating keeper 'Master White' on the sixth floor of the arena. You have achieved 50 consecutive wins!"
"Congratulations to player 'Sword Genius' for defeating keeper 'Master White' on the sixth floor of the arena. You have achieved 50 consecutive wins!"
"Congratulations to player 'Sword Genius' for defeating keeper 'Master White' on the sixth floor of the arena. You have achieved 50 consecutive wins!"
This somewhat aged voice was completely different from the previous female voice that announced consecutive victories. Furthermore, it repeated three times in a row before stopping.
50 consecutive wins was different from the previous one. This time, the system notification was not only for the sixth floor, it was for all the players who were below Transcendent level to hear it.
Lin Huang raised his eyebrows when he heard the different notification. He touched the wound on his neck and quit the challenge.
As he returned to the arena hall on the sixth floor, Lin Huang was speechless as he watched the scene of him slicing Master White in half on the big screen.
He knew that if the player called "Master White" saw this, he would definitely hate him to death.
Lin Huang shook his head and looked at his battle record again.
"Nickname: Sword Genius"
"Combat Strength: Silver-Level Rank-3"
"Battle Count: 50"
"Accumulated Points: 1240"
"Winning Percentage: 100%"
"Honor: 50 consecutive wins!"
Not only was there an Honor column in his personal information, but the entire battle record was glowing in a golden light. It was blinking and many people looked at Lin Huang's direction.
Lin Huang switched off the projection immediately and left the arena.
After he left the arena, he looked at his battle video again and watched it from the beginning to the end. He purposely watched the battle between him and 'Master White' a few times. The more he watched, the more he frowned. It was obvious that he was not satisfied with his own performance.
"It seems like what I did in the battle was too risky. It wasn't the best choice. If my opponent had a technique to speed up or extend his blade, I would have been the one who died. I didn't think it through, there's actually a better way to deal with it … "
After concluding his flaws, Lin Huang wrote down a few solutions that he thought of. He then opened the battle record and found 'Master White's' name.
"He's ranked 18th!" Lin Huang just found out that the 'Master White' that he had just cut in half was ranked so high.
However, Lin Huang was only surprised for a short while. He then started downloading all the battle videos of Master White who was silver-level rank-3.
He wanted to watch the battles where Master White was defeated and how the others won. He might be able to find a better solution from the others. Even if he did not have a better solution, it would be beneficial for him if he could find a way to fight an opponent who was fast.
