Chapter 291: Chapter 291: No Need for Three Moves, Ultimate Technique!
Wow!
As soon as the referee elder for Platform Three announced the start of the match, the audience erupted into thunderous cheers.
Since the start of the Outer Sect Tournament, Luo Cheng had maintained an undefeated streak, even forcing rank seventeen Xiao Qing to forfeit voluntarily. His popularity soared, and the crowd was eager to witness his peak strength as they had been anticipating his match against one of the top fifteen fighters.
As for Ren Xiaoguang, ranked fourteenth on the Top Hundred List, though he had been defeated by Chen Lingyu, his formidable strength was undeniable, and nobody dared underestimate him!
Most importantly, Ren Xiaoguang was part of the Crown Prince Hall!
This battle would not only determine victory but also be a life-or-death duel, bound to be breathtaking!
âHehe! Iâve been waiting for you!â
A sinister smile spread across Ren Xiaoguangâs face, his cold gaze brimming with murderous intent.
Since losing to Chen Lingyu, his chest had been filled with pent-up fury, and now, at last, he had found someone to unleash it upon!
âRen Xiaoguang, be careful! This fight affects the reputation of our Crown Prince Hall. Donât end up embarrassing yourself,â
Qi Guyun reminded.
Ren Xiaoguang cracked a grin, âSenior Brother Qi, donât worry! He may have achieved Human Sword Integration, but with his Realm, how powerful could he possibly be? Besides, Iâve been holding back my ultimate technique. Killing him will be a piece of cake!â
With a flick of his hand, Ren Xiaoguangâs eyes sharpened.
Qi Guyun nodded, thinking he might have worried too much.
He fully understood Ren Xiaoguangâs strength. Losing to Chen Lingyu was merely an accidentâthere was no chance Luo Cheng could take him down.
Feeling reassured, Qi Guyun laughed:
âTake Luo Chengâs head, and when the Outer Sect Tournament concludes, I will personally host a celebratory banquet for you!â
âHaha! Sounds great!â
Ren Xiaoguang laughed heartily and strode onto Platform Three, looking down at Luo Cheng from his elevated position:
âTrash! Hurry up and get up here to die!â
Luo Cheng stood up, his expression blank.
âJunior Brother, be carefulâŠâ
Chen Lingyu knew that further advice would be futile and instead silently prayed for Luo Cheng in her heart.
âLuo Cheng, just donât die!â
Tuoba Lie, as always, was direct and succinct.
âRelax. This will be over soon.â
Luo Cheng smiled lightly and nodded before stepping onto the platform.
From the eldersâ seat, the Fifth Elder gazed at Luo Cheng, taking a deep breath: âI never wouldâve thought this kid could make it this far. Even I underestimated him. Iâm just not sure if heâll survive this round!â
Elder Chen Xuan remained silent.
Frankly, he had previously thought Luo Cheng lasting through the challenges was his absolute limit.
Throughout the ranking matches of the Top Hundred, every time Luo Cheng stepped onto the platform, Elder Chen Xuan would find himself holding his breath, fearing heâd see Luo Cheng perish on stage!
But luckily, Luo Cheng had always won effortlessly, advancing to this point.
Yet now things were different.
Luo Chengâs opponent was Ren Xiaoguang, and the hope that he would leave the platform alive was slimâŠ
On the platform.
Two figures stood in opposition.
âWho wouldâve thought this wretched saltfish could turn things around! Too bad, a saltfish is still just a saltfish. If you had a shred of self-awareness, youâd cherish the extra days youâve managed to live. Yet here you are, bouncing around, sealing your own fate prematurely!â
Ren Xiaoguang didnât rush to strike. In his eyes, Luo Cheng was like an insect he could crush with ease. Before killing him, he wanted to humiliate him thoroughly.
Luo Cheng remained calm: âI donât know how long Iâll live, but one thingâs certainâIâll outlive you.â
âOh?â
Ren Xiaoguang raised an eyebrow, laughing coldly: âIt seems youâre feeling confident after mastering Human Sword Integration! What a shame, this world respects strength above all else. No one cares about what a dead man has mastered! Oh well, Iâll wake you up. In three moves, I will kill you!â
Luo Cheng shook his head, âNot even three moves.â
Ren Xiaoguang froze: âWhat did you say?â
Buzz!
The Flame Trace Sword was unsheathed, and Luo Chengâs gaze turned razor-sharp. âI said, killing you wonât even take three moves!â
As the words echoed, not only did Ren Xiaoguangâs expression drastically change, but the spectators were also stunned, thinking Luo Cheng was far too arrogant. How shamelessly audacious!
Ren Xiaoguang was a Tongxuan Realm Third Layer Peak Martial Artist, ranked fourteenth among the Top Hundred List geniuses. In terms of talent and strength, he stood at the pinnacle among the Xuanyuan Sectâs Outer Sect disciples, second only to the top ten disciples!
And yet, Luo Cheng boldly claimed he could kill him in less than three moves!
Arrogance must have its limits!
Ah Mu couldnât help but sneer: âThis guy loves to brag way too much!â
Luo Yao chuckled lightly: âNot necessarily!â
Ah Mu stared wide-eyed: âMiss, are you suggesting Luo Cheng might really kill Ren Xiaoguang in three moves? Judging by his performance earlier, Ren Xiaoguang has the potential to rival those in the top ten!â
Luo Yaoâs lips curved into a faint smile: âAll I know is that Luo Cheng has never gone back on his word.â
âHaha!â
On the platform.
Ren Xiaoguang burst into laughter, as if heâd heard the most ridiculous joke in the world. Looking at Luo Cheng, his eyes narrowed slightly:
âKill me in three moves! What a joke! Letâs see if you can even survive one move from me!â
Boom!
As he spoke, Ren Xiaoguangâs Essence Energy exploded ferociously, turning him into a blazing ball of fire, fiercer than during his battle with Chen Lingyu.
âBurning Sun Shocking Cloud!â
In his rage, Ren Xiaoguang roared and unleashed a killing blowâhis palms turned crimson-hot like branded iron, striking out in rapid succession.
Instantly, the void was filled with raging Flame Light, the force of his attack creating wave after wave of devastating Palm Force. Each left a trail of fire several meters long, resembling the fiery sunset descending from the heavens, with the fury to annihilate everything in its path. It swept toward Luo Cheng, as if intending to obliterate the entire space!
Seeing this, Chen Lingyuâs face turned pale, and she clenched her hands tightly.
She had experienced this technique firsthand. Even her full defense nearly failed to block it!
âBurning Sun Shocking Cloud! That move nearly defeated Chen Lingyu earlierâitâs strong enough to instantly kill any Tongxuan Realm Third Layer Peak Martial Artist! Ren Xiaoguang has won!â
Even before the Palm Force fully landed, many spectators concluded Ren Xiaoguangâs inevitable victory.
âNot enough!â
Luo Cheng remained composed. With three Essence Energy Vortexes circulating inside him, his wrist shook as he executed the Heavenly Fall Second FormâWind Stopping.
Swish, swish, swishâŠ
The Flame Trace Sword erupted with hundreds upon thousands of Sword Rays. Each ray emanated an overwhelming aura of sharpness, slicing through all the Palm Forces like wind scattering clouds.
âWhat? He blocked it!â
Ren Xiaoguang couldnât believe his eyes. He had confidently thought this strike would instantly kill or severely injure Luo Cheng, yet it hadnât even grazed him!
Holding his sword, Luo Cheng calmly stepped toward Ren Xiaoguang, his eyes piercing and his voice icy:
âWhy struggle in vain? Today, I will reunite you with your brother.â
âWhat?â
Ren Xiaoguang froze momentarily before his eyes widened as he fiercely glared at Luo Cheng: âYou killed my brother, Ren Qian?â
Ren Qian had gone to Linjiang City and never returned, leaving Ren Xiaoguang perpetually worried!
This revelation hit him like a thunderclap, shattering his mind!
Luo Cheng had no intention of hiding the truth and admitted it outright:
âCorrect! Before his death, he said youâd avenge him. Unfortunately, you canât even protect yourself today, let alone fulfill his wish.â
âAaaah! Trash! Iâll kill you! Iâll kill you!â
Ren Xiaoguang was utterly enraged. With a furious cry, he swiftly struck his chest with his palm.
Splurt!
Ren Xiaoguangâs face turned pale as he spat out a mouthful of Essence Blood.
The Essence Blood ignited upon contact with his Essence Energy, crackling into flames that consumed him entirely, sending his power soaring to new heights!
âBlood Sun Break!â
With a maddened roar, Ren Xiaoguang shot upward, pressing his palms outward. His whole figure transformed into a blood-red sun that barreled violently toward Luo Cheng.
Boom, boom, boomâŠ
The blood-colored sun expanded with the wind, its dominating aura causing the air of the platform to boil as if a Meteor was falling to Earthâburning and obliterating everything in its wake!
âWhat! Ren Xiaoguang has this move too?â
âUnbelievable! If he had used this against Chen Lingyu earlier, she wouldnât have stood a chance! Sheâd be dead or gravely injured!â
Sensing the overwhelming power of Ren Xiaoguangâs ultimate technique, gasps filled the arena while even the Top Ten Disciplesâ faces turned grim!
