Chapter 529: Chapter 52: Five Against One
Astonished gazes were directed towards Tian Zhongdao on the arena floor, who was panting slightly.
Yuzi Zige had lost!
Defeated by Tian Zhongdao.
And it was a loss in such a stifling manner.
Even up to this mont, many still couldn’t believe it was real.
While the ordinary disciples were in shock, the Elders from peaks such as Asking Immortal Peak, Cutting Dao Peak, and others, swiftly stood up.
Each of their eyes widened, staring intently at the area of Tian Zhongdao’s dantian.
The light at Tian Zhongdao’s dantian area was fading rapidly.
But they had still seen it.
Two rays of light!
What did that imply?
“Twin Souls, you actually possess the legendary Twin Souls,” said Ning Shengtian, Elder of Asking Immortal Peak, his voice trembling.
“Ah, Twin Souls?”
All of the disciples were shocked.
They, of course, had also heard of what Twin Souls were.
Under normal circumstances, cultivators only have one Martial Soul.
Even for soone like Lin Feng, whose Martial Soul had evolved twice, his Martial Soul was still singular, that being the Devouring Martial Soul. It’s just that due to the Martial Soul Evolution, Lin Feng had five identical Devouring Martial Souls.
But there were so who did not possess just a single Martial Soul.
They had two Martial Souls.
This was the legendary Twin Souls.
Twin Souls were extrely rare.
Even throughout the vast realms of the Heavenly Martial Continent’s Three Thousand States, it was very difficult to find Twin Souls.
Anyone with Twin Souls was absolutely a genius among geniuses.
The talents of people like Li ngjie were also astonishing, but in front of Tian Zhongdao’s Twin Souls, they simply couldn’t compare.
“It’s actually Twin Souls,” said Elder Qiao Yunqiu, her expression filled with ecstatic joy.
Lin Feng had already brought her too many surprises.
Elder Qiao Yunqiu had never thought that, apart from Lin Feng, Tian Zhongdao would also bring her such an enormous surprise.
“Yes, I have a second Martial Soul, my second Martial Soul is the Invisibility Martial Soul!” Tian Zhongdao said.
…
“Hiss.”
Everyone drew in a sharp breath.
Invisibility Martial Soul.
It was actually a “Dark Series Martial Soul.”
Among all the types of Martial Souls, the Dark Series Martial Souls were the most terrifying.
“Huff huff huff…”
The Elders from peaks such as Asking Immortal Peak, Cutting Dao Peak, and the rest grew agitated in their breathing, realizing what Twin Souls represented.
“Back then, why didn’t we choose this Tian Zhongdao?” they lanted, nearly coughing up blood.
Lin Feng! Tian Zhongdao!
The two most terrifying individuals among this batch of newcors.
They had all been missed by them.
Thinking of this, all the Elders from different peaks felt the urge to bash their heads against a wall.
Tian Zhongdao stepped down from the arena.
Lin Feng noticed sothing was amiss with Tian Zhongdao and silently reached out his hand to support him.
“What’s wrong?” Lin Feng whispered.
“I had only mastered the First Level of my Invisibility Martial Soul, which is to turn invisible without attacking. But just now, I forced the activation of the Invisibility Martial Soul’s Second Level to avoid Yuzi Zige’s attacks and dodged his 365 sword strikes, which was a huge drain for ,” Tian Zhongdao said, looking a bit pale.
“Rest for a while,” Lin Feng said.
Tian Zhongdao nodded and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Elder Qiao Yunqiu, who was nearby, naturally also noticed that sothing seed off with Tian Zhongdao’s condition and couldn’t help but worry. Lin Feng explained the situation, and only then did Elder Qiao Yunqiu feel relieved.
Grand Elder Zhaang Quan’s voice echoed at this ti, “Now that the six strong have been determined, they are Heavenly Repair Peak’s disciple Lin Feng, Tian Zhongdao, Asking Immortal Peak’s disciple Li ngjie, Divine Sword Peak’s disciple Wu Ke, Cutting Dao Peak’s disciple Yang Jian, and Supre Yang Peak’s disciple Shui Wenjie. Rest for half an hour before the next round of duels.”
Tian Zhongdao seized the ti to recover.
…
An hour later, Elder Qiao Yunqiu looked at Tian Zhongdao and asked, “How do you feel now?”
Tian Zhongdao let out a slight sigh and said, “Afraid, afraid, I’m afraid it will be difficult, difficult to, to participate in the battle.”
“You’ve already done very well, don’t put any pressure on yourself,” Elder Qiao Yunqiu said.
Tian Zhongdao nodded his head.
Elder Qiao Yunqiu announced, “Our Heavenly Repair Peak’s disciple Tian Zhongdao has so injuries from the fight and will withdraw from the final battle.”
Whoo…
Imdiately, the crowd began to express their excitent.
With Tian Zhongdao bowing out of the final battle, an additional spot in the top six would beco available, giving the other disciples a chance.
Grand Elder Zhaang Quan said, “With Tian Zhongdao’s withdrawal, a disciple from each of the Twelve Peaks will now participate in the duel. The final victor will be promoted to the top six to join the last finals.”
Heavenly Repair Peak did not send out any other disciple, because besides Lin Feng and Tian Zhongdao, sending soone else would not stand a chance of winning.
No one from dicine Peak or Spirit Array Peak participated either.
Thus, only nine peaks had disciples competing for the last spot in the battle.
This ti, the battle was decided by a round-robin format, where the first round of drawing lots would leave one person with a bye.
After determining the top five, another bye would occur in the second round, whittling it down to the top three. In the face-off of the three strong, one will have a bye, and the other two disciples will duel. The winner will then contend with the one who had the bye.
After an intense competition, Four Extres Peak’s disciple Shui Wentao claid the last victory. Although Shui Wentao was only sixteen, his Thunder Martial Soul was exceedingly terrifying. Even in the round of twelve to six, he had only narrowly lost to Li ngjie.
Thus, the six strong were determined.
They were Heavenly Repair Peak’s disciple Lin Feng.
Asking Immortal Peak’s disciple Li ngjie.
Cutting Dao Peak’s disciple Yang Jian.
Supre Yang Peak’s disciple Shui Wenjie.
Four Extres Peak’s disciple Shui Wentao.
Divine Sword Peak’s disciple Wu Ke.
…
“Now we move on to the finals, the six strong, take the stage,” Grand Elder Zhaang Quan declared in a deep voice.
“Swoosh…”
All six strong swiftly advanced toward the arena.
Previously, the finals first decided the top three, and then one person had a bye while the other two dueled. The victor would go on to the last duel with the one who had the bye.
“This year, before the rookie competition, the Sect Master gathered us elders to discuss the approach for the top-six finals. In the past, it was one-on-one duels, but this year, the sect has changed the rules and introduced a new way of dueling,” Grand Elder Zhaang Quan said.
The rest of the elders nodded slightly, evidently already aware of all this.
“Changed the rules? What rules?”
…
All the disciples were puzzled.
“The new rule is a free-for-all battle among the six strong,” Grand Elder Zhaang Quan declared.
“Ah? A free-for-all?” Everyone was shocked; no one had expected this kind of duel.
In a free-for-all among the six strong, wouldn’t that an they could form alliances?
“In the free-for-all among the six strong, anyone can form alliances until there is only one person left standing in the arena!”
Sure enough, at that mont, Grand Elder Zhaang Quan continued to detail the final battle thod.
It was truly cruel.
This kind of free-for-all among the six strong was far more brutal than one-on-one battles.
Li ngjie and the others couldn’t help but frown deeply, everyone looking at each other with guarded expressions.
Lin Feng’s expression remained unchanged; no matter the rules, as a disciple, there was no room to refuse.
“Now, let’s begin the final battle,” Grand Elder Zhaang Quan said, his voice falling as he quickly retreated.
Li ngjie and the others exchanged glances.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh…
In an instant, Li ngjie, Yang Jian, Shui Wentao, Shui Wenjie, and Wu Ke quickly dispersed, encircling Lin Feng.
“These five intend to join forces to deal with Lin Feng, the most threatening of them all.”
As this scene unfolded, many in the crowd gasped in surprise.
