Free Web NovelChapter 336: Chapter 170: Contest for the First Seat, The Final Battle
He abandoned the war halberd in his hand, letting it float beside him. He clenched his right fist. Atop his knuckles, Thunder and Lightning Gang Sha, compressed to its absolute limit, formed a blinding ball of light that he smashed down toward the crown of Lin Ye’s head!
Before the fist even arrived, the Fist Gang had already compressed the air to its breaking point, creating a visible white shockwave!
This speed, this power—it was completely incomparable to what he had shown before!
BOOM—!!!
The punch came crashing down.
Lin Ye’s figure suddenly became illusory, and he dodged the fatal blow by a hair’s breadth.
The full, terrifying force of that punch was unleashed upon the arena stage below.
The solid alloy stage instantly collapsed and melted, leaving a terrifying, bottomless crater more than ten meters in diameter.
With the battle having reached this point, the stage had lost all meaning.
This duel would no longer be decided by one side being forced out of the ring.
Lin Ye’s figure appeared tens of meters away. He could see Dongfang Zhen’s chest heaving violently. Clearly, maintaining this Thunder Monarch Dharma Aspect was draining an unimaginable amount of his own energy.
Dragging this out and exhausting him was a surefire way to win.
But that wasn’t what Lin Ye was thinking.
The fighting spirit in his own eyes had been ignited as well.
’If we’re going to fight, then let’s make it a fight to remember!’
He was no longer hung up on his previous fixation.
’Thinking I could beat Ninghai’s number one genius with just P1 was a complete pipe dream now.’
Lin Ye had already switched to P2 a moment ago.
Then, he activated Frenzy!
An even more immense power awoke within Lin Ye. His already insane stats surged once more!
The golden Flowing Gang seemed to ignite, its light flaring brilliantly.
CRACKLE... CRACKLE...
Deep purple crystals rapidly covered his entire body, forming a suit of menacing yet magnificent full-body crystal armor that completely encased him.
Even so, the Thunder Domain emanating from Dongfang Zhen still caused his movements to feel slightly numb and sluggish.
His skill rotations weren’t enough to maintain a state of "Unstoppable," granting him constant immunity to crowd control.
But even so, Lin Ye’s speed had already broken through a certain threshold!
BOOM!
The ground beneath his feet exploded as he, instead of retreating, charged forward. Trailing a streak of interwoven gold and purple light, he rushed straight toward the Thunder Monarch Dharma Aspect!
The two figures flickered in and out of sight, constantly clashing in the sky above the completely destroyed battlefield.
Flashes of lightning and the glint of the spear intertwined. Every collision produced a deafening roar and an energy storm that swept out in all directions.
Every punch from the Thunder Monarch that Dongfang Zhen had become filled the sky with lightning, and each bolt was powerful enough to level a small mountain.
Countless orbs of lightning and nets of electricity rained down from the sky, turning the entire battlefield into an apocalyptic Thunder Purgatory.
And Lin Ye’s counterattacks were just as devastating.
The shaft of the Star-Piercing Spear in his hand was completely covered in purple crystal, while its tip was wreathed in liquid golden Flowing Gang.
With a single thrust or sweep, the force of his spear could easily tear open the ground, and the light from its blade was utterly unstoppable!
Amidst this earth-shattering battlefield, the invisible figures of spectators began to quietly appear.
These were the students who, after finishing their own matches and being eliminated, had chosen to spectate.
And they were all left completely dumbfounded.
One recently eliminated student stared blankly at the scene before him.
The sky was a purple ocean of lightning, the earth a cracked and molten wasteland.
Two blurs of light, their forms indistinct, were clashing at a speed that defied human comprehension. Each exchange sent violent tremors through the entire space.
His mind went completely blank.
’Holy shit... Where the hell am I?’
’Is this even the same country!?’
Wei Shuying and Ye Qi stood together, the expressions on their faces identical—a mixture of shock, bewilderment, and self-doubt.
They had once thought the gap between themselves and the top tier was just a single step. Now, it looked like an insurmountable chasm.
In the crowd, Zhang Daoxuan watched the world-ending scene. He was, ironically, the first one to snap out of it.
He shook his head, and then he laughed.
When a person is rendered utterly speechless, sometimes they really do just laugh out loud.
’Thank goodness I’ve already come to terms with things.’ he thought.
’If I were still obsessing over that, seeing this scene now would have probably shattered my Dao Heart on the spot, turning it into a QR code too scrambled to scan.’
In the spectator stands, Su Yunjin’s mouth hung open. She had been rendered completely speechless.
Nie Cang also looked as if he’d seen a ghost, muttering to himself nonstop.
"Monsters... They’re both monsters..."
Fun fact: the two combatants currently locked in a battle that looked like deities undergoing a heavenly tribulation were both only eighteen years old.
They had just come of age, barely crossing the threshold from adolescence into young adulthood.
If things continued on this path, could it be that they were watching two future Martial Saints holding a friendly match ahead of schedule?
Only Yin Liulan stood with her arms crossed, an unconcealed smile on her usually languid face. Her almond-shaped eyes were sparkling with spirit, shining with astonishing brightness.
’Now this is a surprise!’
’This is a real surprise!’
This training camp had given her far too many surprises!
