Free Web NovelChapter 344: Chapter 344
In the deepest part of the martial arts arena stood five wooden pillars, each towering thirty meters high. freewёbnoνel.com
Standing atop these pillars were the five strongest individuals from the previous Elemental Trial.
On the leftmost pillar was a handsome young man with pale skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes. The chief disciple of Myriad Transformations Peak, Clement.
"Heh, look at that, that kid is truly remarkable. It has only been less than an hour, yet he has fought his way from the primary rings all the way to the fourth round high rings!"
Beside Clement was a young man of similar age, tall and thin, with green bangs covering his eyes, his body exuding a vibrant aura of vitality. Collin.
Collin nodded, smiling with interest. "This fellow’s control over elemental power is truly remarkable. With such a talent in the sect, how come we have not seen him before?"
On the next pillar was a burly, towering, robust blue haired man, he wore an exaggeratedly flashy dark blue armor and wielded a massive trident.
The chief disciple of Falling Dust Peak, Ford.
"This fellow, I heard about him from my Master." Ford said dismissively.
"His name is Taryn. He newly joined the sect not long ago, but because he offended Elder Dariel upon entry, he has been stuck at Broken Sword Peak ever since."
"During his batch’s newcomer examination, he was the first place champion and could have obtained the Vault of Divine Blade Heart. But through a twist of fate, it was snatched away by the second place Aya Cale."
"I reckon he is resentful about failing to get the Vault of Divine Blade Heart, which is why he is holding his breath and going all out in this Elemental Trial."
Ford looked at the red haired girl beside him and asked with a smile. "Junior Sister, this kid cultivates fire techniques just like you. From your perspective as a fire element expert, how is his strength?"
The red haired girl had large red wavy hair, looking extremely noble, wearing a bright red robe with two clusters of flames burning beside her, she was clearly a hot tempered little spitfire.
The chief disciple of Spirit Artisan Peak, Irene.
"His spiritual energy reserves are massive, and he can transform them into fire as he pleases, which is why he can effortlessly release techniques with such a huge area of effect." Irene narrowed her eyes.
"His talent is indeed not bad, and he will inevitably have great achievements in the future, but right now, he is still not my match!"
"Oh?" Ford raised an eyebrow.
"Why are you so confident?"
Irene smiled. "Look at him. He fought all the way from the secondary rings to the high rings, yet from beginning to end, he only ever used that single move."
"This indicates that while his spiritual energy reserves are massive, his mastery over fire techniques is actually pitifully limited. He can only use this most basic move to avoid exposing his ineptitude." freewebnσvel.cѳm
"This kind of simple attack can indeed easily secure victory against cultivators far weaker than him. But in the eyes of a true fire arts expert, he would not withstand a single exchange."
She said confidently. "If this guy truly passes the final rings, reaches the Heaven Reaching Platforms, and chooses to challenge me, then I will definitely let him experience what a true fire expert is!"
"Hahahaha, truly worthy of Junior Sister Irene, feisty as expected." Ford could not help but laugh. He then called out to the young man on the furthest pillar.
"You think so too, right?"
However, the young man kept his eyes closed and completely ignored him, causing Ford a bout of awkwardness.
This young man wore an earth colored long robe. Despite his young age, his body radiated an ancient, heavily stagnant aura, his cultivation had reached the peak of the Mahayana Realm.
Even among these five geniuses, he was the strongest, not inferior to some weaker elders.
His name was Kevin, formerly the chief disciple of Sunblaze Peak, the direct disciple of Master Vincent. He was the number one heavenly genius of Sunblaze Peak, known as the number one earth cultivator in this region.
But when Sunblaze Peak was attacked, Kevin happened to be out on a mission.
Upon his return, seeing Sunblaze Peak slaughtered to the last and his master dying tragically at the hands of villains, Kevin was overwhelmed with grief and indignation. He howled at the sky, his Dao Heart nearly shattering on the spot.
After calming down, he secretly made a resolute decision. He absolutely had to avenge his master and fellow disciples and wipe out this blood debt.
Ever since that day, the only thing left in his heart was revenge, he could not muster interest in anything else.
"Tsk, what a massive ego, ignoring people now." Ford curled his lips and muttered.
"Your master and fellow disciples died at the hands of a organization. It is not like we offended you."
"What did you say?!" With his sore spot poked, Kevin violently opened his eyes, glaring deathly at Ford.
Ford hurriedly shut his mouth. "Alright, alright, I will not say it."
While the heavenly geniuses were chatting, Alex had already defeated ten opponents in the high rings, his total points reached one hundred thousand, successfully advancing him to the final rings.
The final rings only had thirty spots.
The disciples occupying them were, without exception, the most outstanding proud children of heaven from each peak, their strength ranged from the peak of the Void Amalgamation Realm to the early Mahayana Realm.
According to the point system, Alex had to defeat half of them to advance to the Heaven Reaching Platforms.
Seeing no one else around and no disciples invigilating the final rings, Alex pondered for a moment, then waved his hand. Relying on his own spiritual energy, he forcefully suppressed the barriers separating the individual rings.
The genius disciples occupying the various final rings originally could not see anyone else around them at all.
