The mentors immediately reported the situation to their superiors and soon, an order was issued.
The tournament continued.
With this, the mentors had nothing more to say. They could only say that the two on stage were on their own. If they really ended up with broken limbs, they would be asking for it.
Lin Jin evaded the wind blades and flicked his finger, sending the coiled wire needle flying toward Yang Jie.
However, the latter was currently surrounded by a gust of wind so the coiled wire needle couldn't get close to him.
Yang Jie had clearly learned his lesson from his first battle with Lin Jin. Perhaps it was Ye Yuzhou's idea as well. Since Lin Jin had an elusive attack, Yang Jie should prepare his defense from the start so that nothing could get past him. That way, no matter how cunning his opponent was, it would be useless.
Another few wind blades came slashing at Lin Jin.
Lin Jin could only dodge. If this went on, he would be in trouble.
"Since you've got a spell on you, I'll give you a spell negation!" Lin Jin didn't know any advanced spells like Yang Jie's that allowed him to grow wings and fly like the white peacock.
There were only two spells that Lin Jin had been researching.
One was Fire Spirit Possession.
The other was Spell Negation.
Lin Jin had put in a lot of effort into this Spell Negation. Not only did he discuss it with'Xue Bao'er and learn a lot from her, but he had also improved it himself.
At this moment, he narrowly avoided Yang Jie's second wave of attacks and directly pointed at Yang Jie.
"Spell Negation!"
The spell was immediately cast and an invisible force blasted Yang Jie's body.
In an instant, it was like a heavy hammer that smashed Yang Jie's enchantment into smithereens. The gust of wind around Yang Jie dissipated and the wings on his back were peeled off. Yang Jie fell from the sky and landed heavily on the ground.
What elegant demeanor? What dashing elegance? At this moment, all of that had vanished into thin air with this fall.
This fall was really bad, and his forehead was bleeding.
However, Yang Jie had a strong physique so he immediately leaped up from the ground with a vicious glint in his eyes.
This was too embarrassing.
It was as if a person had been stripped naked in public.
At the same time, Yang Jie was astounded. Of course, he knew about Spell Negation, but under normal circumstances, it wasn't easy to cast a regular Spell Negation. Moreover, Yang Jie's immunity to Spell Negation was incredibly strong so how did Lin Jin succeed in one strike?
But that was the truth. Yang Jie didn't think too much about it. He didn't dare to think too much. After leaping up, he immediately pointed at the air and used the third form of the Finger Qi Sword Art.
"Rainbow like a sword!"
On the other side, Lin Jin wasn't slow either.
The next instant, Lin Jin was forced to take three steps back before collapsing to the ground. Yang Jie was also stabbed by the coiled wire needle. At that moment, Yang Jie felt a pain in his chest, followed by his entire body going numb.
He couldn't move.
Yang Jie was horrified, but he forced a laugh out loud. Although he couldn't move, he was still standing. However, Lin Jin had fallen to the ground. Yang Jie had absolute confidence in his Finger Qi Sword Art's third style. After suffering such a blow, even if he didn't die, he would be heavily injured.
"Lin Jin, you deserve it!" Yang Jie said through gritted teeth.
He tried to forcefully circulate the spirit energy in his body to dispel the numbness but things didn't turn out as he wished. Not only did he fail to dispel the strange numbness, but it also made his expression change and he vomited a mouthful of blood.
He was injured.
And it wasn't a light injury either.
Just then, Lin Jin got up from where he was lying on the ground.
Yang Jie's eyes widened as if he had just seen a ghost.
Lin Jin grimaced in pain before taking out a breastplate from his clothes.
He had spent a huge sum of money to order this from a smithy yesterday, using the best metal. Lin Jin was well aware of his own shortcomings. His pet beast was strong and his pulse-seeking technique was impressive.
That was it.
These were the only two things he was good at. Lin Jin recalled how Yang Jie managed to injure him with a single finger attack so he had to be careful this time.
Just like how Yang Jie used the wind around him to defend against Lin Jin's coiled wire needle, Lin Jin didn't know any advanced spells so he custom-made a sturdy breastplate. Before he went on stage, he stuffed it under his shirt and sure enough, it came in handy.
At this moment, he looked at the Heart Protection Mirror, which had already been dented by the tyrannical force. It had almost penetrated through. However, Yang Jie's Finger Qi Sword Incantation's third form was too far away, and he hadn't mastered this technique enough. If Ye Yuzhou had used it, forget one Heart Protection Mirror, even three or five Heart Protection Mirrors wouldn't have been able to withstand it.
As for Lin Jin, he only suffered minor injuries. He was definitely in a much better state compared to Yang Jie.
The spectating disciples were also dumbfounded. A few instructors also looked at each other. It seemed that the rules didn't say that they weren't allowed to wear the Heart Protection Mirror for defense.
Hence, it was within the rules.
"Lin Jin, you're despicable and shameless!" Yang Jie was about to lose his mind. Restrained by the coiled wire needle, he couldn't move at all. In addition, he was already in a sorry state after falling from the sky. Now, he looked even more pitiful.
Lin Jin patted his shirt and glanced at Yang Jie. "You're not convinced?"
Yang Jie scolded, "Lin Jin, if you're that good, let's have a real fight. What's the point of using such despicable tricks to subdue me?"
Lin Jin couldn't be bothered with him.
Yang Jie's earlier jab was extremely powerful. If it weren't for the breastplate, Lin Jin would have been gravely injured even if he survived. Lin Jin didn't want to waste any more time talking and simply threw a punch.
It landed squarely on Yang Jie's nose.
Yang Jie tasted the sweetness, the bitterness, and the spiciness of life as his handsome nose started bleeding.
Lin Jin didn't stop there. He pinned Yang Jie down and began a flurry of punches, leaving Yang Jie with a bloody nose and a swollen face. However, Yang Jie was a stubborn man. Even after being beaten up so badly, he refused to admit defeat.
If he didn't admit defeat, the match would have to continue.
Lin Jin was tired.
He stopped controlling the coiled wire needle. Otherwise, all he had to do was follow Yang Jie's veins and enter his heart. With a twist, he could turn Yang Jie into a corpse.
However, that wasn't Lin Jin's goal. It wasn't necessary. Moreover, he had to take Old Ye's pride into consideration. Old Ye had taken a firm stand against Snake Country and Lin Jin had to encourage him. It wouldn't be appropriate to kill Old Ye's disciple in public.
"Still not going to admit defeat?" Lin Jin's hand was hurting so he didn't want to continue. Yang Jie's eyelids were so swollen that only a slit could be seen but he still didn't make a sound.
Lin Jin understood now.
Yang Jie was probably thinking of using his pet beast to make a comeback. He thought that as long as the white peacock could defeat Lin Jin's pet beast, he would still have a chance.
Theoretically, that was true. But in reality, the white peacock couldn't possibly win.
Lin Jin's beast appraisal skills were now incredible. Even without the Museum of Deadly Beasts, he could appraise most beasts. Take the white peacock for example. Despite its imposing aura and the fact that it was undoubtedly a Rank 4, its foundation was unstable. Its eyes were full of vigor and they didn't disperse, indicating that it was being supported by the medicinal effects. Other than that, it was obvious from the color of its fur and the faint scent of medicine that it was giving off.
Usually, when Xiao Huo evolved and consumed the five elemental fire pill, the medicinal effects should have completely assimilated into the pet beast's body so it couldn't be felt. However, Yang Jie's pet beast was different.
Lin Jin speculated that it was highly possible that the pill Yang Jie consumed was of an extremely high grade. In other words, the medicinal effects were extremely potent. However, a pill's effectiveness wasn't the only thing that mattered. It had to be tailored to the condition.
It had to have compatible attributes.
Otherwise, carelessly consuming a pill would only lead to disaster.
