Heavenly Tyrant Martial Soul

Chapter 98: A Domineering Blade

While Ling Xiao chatted with Ling Yihang, Heavenly Peak Citys City Lord finished speaking.

The Heavenly Peak Gathering officially began.

The competition method for this gathering was a bit special, since one had to seize the arena.

There were ten in total.

Anyone could become the master of an arena suitable for them and accept challenges.

Naturally, the defeated person would leave, and each person had three chances to challenge others. However, only upon being defeated would one of these three chances be consumed. If a challenger continued to win, a chance wouldnt be consumed.

The rules were actually rather simple.

Now, get to the arena!

Immediately after Heavenly Peak Citys Lord finished speaking, dozens of figures rushed out.

Some flew out from the pavilions, some from the kiosks. There were even those that rushed out from the woods.

Obviously, there were many contestants, but those with stronger movement technique had the greatest advantage.

In a moment, all ten arenas were occupied.

Li Xinghui occupied the tallest arena.

Ling Chen the second.

Shi Feiyu the third.

Wang Zui the fourth.

Shi Yulian the fifth.

The remaining five arenas had the four divided among the Li, Wang, and Shi Clans. Only the tenth ranked arena washeld by a disciple of a medium clan.

What made Ling Clans people lose face was that besides Ling Chen, none made a move.

It was not that they didnt want to claim an arena, but they hadnt known of this rule, so they hadnt rushed at the start.

Since they had reacted more slowly, they were unable to contend even if they had wanted to.

Hahaha, is the Ling Clan still worthy of being on par with the other three big clans? Its truly laughable. Only Ling Chen was able to seizean arena.

Yes, are those three idiots?

Didnt they say that Ling Xiao defeated Ling Feifan? I think he used some kind of scheme.

The disciples of the other three main clans didnt have a good opinion of the Ling Clan. Naturally, they would soundly beat a floundering dog.

Strictly speaking, the four major clans all disliked each other. However, Ling Clans disappointing display had to be ridiculed.

I cant sit still any longer!

Ling Yihang stood and announced.

Then, go play but dont lose! You can seize the fourth or fifth arena as you please.

Ling Xiao said with a smile.

You speak like its that easy.

Ling Yihang made a wry smile, but he didnt disappoint Ling Xiao. He chose to challenge the fourth ranked Wang Zui first.

In truth, it might have been easier for him to win against Shi Yulian, but he didnt like to hit women.

Ling Yihang was a weird character.

Wang Zui, do you dare to fight me?

With his blade at his waist, Ling Yihang placed his hands behind his back, sending out a natural and unrestrained aura.

Although its disdainful to exchange blows with you, I dont want to break the rules. Lets fight!

Wang Zui sat in the arena, not even planning to stand to defend himself.

Ling Yihang inwardly sneered.

However, he said nothing; he didnt like to waste time flapping his mouth.

This Ling Yihang is truly courageous. He actually dared to directly challenge Wang Zhi, one of the four noble sons!

In any case, he has three chances. A loss can be treated as swapping pointers. If I were in his place, I also would not be afraid.

But if there is a very big gap between your strengths, you wont have any improvements even if you swap pointers.

As I see it, he is an onion stuck in a pigs nose. Our words made him uncomfortable, so he now wants to gain face, but Im afraid he will lose even more.

The audience was not optimistic about his chances, making Wang Zui even more arrogant. 

Just sitting here, I can easily defeat you, so there is no need for me to stand up.

He said while looking at Ling Yihang.

Ling Yihang vs. Wang Zui: start!

At the City Lords signal, a dazzling blade light descended.

Then, everyone found Wang Zui lying in the arena like a dead dog. Although he bled from almost all his orifices, he had survived.

Idiot!

The flames in Ling Yihangs belly finally vented themselves, and he struggled to conceal his enjoyment at seeing Wang Zui being carried down from the arena.

What dog frat four noble sons! Thats just a temporary position, but he actually considered himself the best in the world. What a hopeless idiot!

After saying this, Ling Yihang stuck his blade in the arena while eyeing the other challengers with excitement.

It seems we guessed wrong. I fear the strongest person within the Ling Clan is neither Ling Chen nor Ling Xiao but rather this Ling Yihang. This person is too powerful. In that blade move, I could sense his rigid blade intent!

Yes, I also felt it. He really defeated Wang Zui in one blade move! I fear even Ling Xinghui might lose to him.

People were foolish like this. Whoever performed best last would gain more respect and admiration.

Ling Yihang had severely injured Wang Zui with one blade; this strength was truly terrifying.

The next challenges were more ordinary.

No one challenged the top five arenas, focusing on the sixth to tenth arenas.

Nevertheless, the people occupying these arenas were not easy to push around. Besides Ling Yihangs first challenge, all the other challengers failed.

Junior Apprentice Brother, Ill also go up and give it a try.

Ling Yixue told Ling Xiao.

Go. Remember to not challenge Shi Yulian. That woman is a lot more powerful than she looks. Shi Feiyu is a pretty good opponent; you should choose him.

Ling Xiao suggested.

Unknowingly, in Ling Yixues eyes, Ling Xiaos position was even higher than Ling Clans seniors.

If she had any doubts, she would directly ask Ling Xiao instead of them.

Okay, I will listen to you!

Ling Yixue greeted Shi Feiyu, Im Ling Yixue. Please instruct me!

Whats going on with Ling Clans people? They immediately challenged the four noble sons!

Perhaps, they truly have some strength.

Well, dont assert anything in advance. Lets watch first.

Look at how alarmed you all are. I dont believe that the Ling Clan could still produce someone stronger than Ling Yihang.

Ling Yixue challenging Shi Feiyu instantly pushed the Heavenly Peak Gathering to the peak. Everyone was a little surprised and eagerly anticipated the duel.

Ling Chen, you and your Ling Clan are indeed very domineering. Li Xinghui glanced at Ling Chen and commented.

Dont tell me these things. I dont know that cheap woman.

Ling Chen coldly added, But with her strength, its almost impossible for her to win. After all, in the annual competition, she ranked sixth. If it werent for other people entering seclusion, it would have never been her turn to participate.

Is that so?

Li Xinghui frowned and no longer spoke.

Shi Feiyu thought very highly of Ling Yixue. After all, he had seen Wang Zuis example. He didnt want to capsize his boat, so he immediately used his best defensive martial art.

Thats an Entry-level Peak Defense Martial Art: Iron Dress Divine Technique.

Yes, in the last Heavenly Peak Gathering, he relied on it to sweep through his opponents, finally losing to just Li Xinghui and Wang Zui. At that time, his Iron Dress Divine Technique was in the small success realm, I wonder what its at now.

It should be at least in the mastery realm.

Wouldnt that make others despair? A peak defense martial art, even if it is just entry-level, is very difficult to cultivate.

While people made all kind of remarks, Shi Feiyu had launched his attack.

His <Iron Dress Divine Technique> looked like its namesake iron dress. Not only was his defense strengthened but also his attack power.
