On the arena.
The retreating Ao Tiancheng, his face also showing an incredulous expression, this fellow actually managed to push him back? How could a mere human at the Second Level All Things Realm unleash such a powerful attack? Impossible!
“Ao Tiancheng, today’s game ends here!”
After Lin Yun, who was retreating, threw out these words, he turned and flew off the arena.
Just now, Lin Yun had unleashed the power of his origin-level sword soul, but this power couldn’t be frequently activated.
So, continuing the fight was pointless.
Even if he could frequently activate it, it wouldn’t truly cause substantial harm to Ao Tiancheng, let alone defeat him completely.
This fact was very clear in Lin Yun’s mind.
Although Lin Yun strategically despised and mocked his opponent, he was also well aware of Ao Tiancheng’s formidable strength.
Moreover, a dragon’s defence was quite powerful. The attack power Lin Yun could currently unleash was hardly enough to break through the scale defence of a seven-clawed dragon, at most reaching the level of a six-clawed dragon.
Lin Yun was already quite satisfied with this battle result.
“Scoundrel, who told you to leave? Get back up here!”
Seeing Lin Yun step down from the Heavenly Dragon Platform, Ao Tiancheng immediately let out an angry roar.
Under the burst of his bloodline power, he was still pushed back by a mere Lin Yun. For him, this was an absolute humiliation. Of course, he wanted to reclaim his honour, to brutally beat Lin Yun!
Though he had already unleashed his bloodline power, he still had trump cards unused, and he was confident he could defeat Lin Yun!
Lin Yun’s withdrawal left Ao Tiancheng feeling frustrated and stifled, as if he’d punched cotton, unable to exert his strength.
“What? Haven’t had enough? Don’t worry, someone else will keep you company next, someone will beat you!” Lin Yun sneered.
“Brat, I’m talking about you! If you’ve got the guts, come back to the arena!” Ao Tiancheng roared at Lin Yun.
Though Lin Yun’s exit meant Ao Tiancheng retained the position of arena master, he wasn’t happy at all. What he wanted was to thrash Lin Yun, to trample him!
“What? Getting anxious? Take your time with that. If we meet again in the future, I’ll thrash you again!”
After throwing out these words, Lin Yun turned and headed towards the West Sea Dragon Palace team.
“This… this…”
The audience was momentarily stunned.
This outcome was something they hadn’t anticipated at all.
“Though this guy didn’t become the arena master, such a result is already far beyond expectations.”
“Indeed, forcing Ao Tiancheng to unleash his bloodline power and even pushing him back, though he lost, such a record is a defeat with honour, considering the huge gap in realms!”
…
Members of the other dragon palaces were all discussing and marvelling.
As for the East Sea Dragon Palace members, their expressions weren’t too pleasant.
Especially the five-clawed golden dragon, whose three drops of essence blood were taken by Lin Yun, his face was particularly grim. He had hoped Ao Tiancheng would deal with Lin Yun in the arena to avenge him.
“How could this be? Even Brother Ao Tiancheng couldn’t win after a prolonged fight?” The five-clawed golden dragon’s face was full of reluctance.
“This cunning scoundrel seems to have something extraordinary about him.” The East Sea Dragon Palace’s Great Elder also had a dark, brooding look.
The Great Elder of the East Sea Dragon Palace knew best that for Lin Yun, at the Second Level All Things Realm, to unleash such combat power meant his ability to fight beyond his level was extraordinary!
Then, his tone shifted, and he said coldly, “But he’s offended our East Sea Dragon Palace. The outcome will be the same. Even if he wasn’t dealt with this time, he’ll eventually pay the price for his actions!”
On the other side.
Lin Yun returned to the West Sea Dragon Palace team.
“Elder Lin Yun!”
As Lin Yun approached, the West Sea Dragon Palace members present were visibly excited.
Though Lin Yun didn’t win, he had already proven his prowess.
His performance just now had earned their admiration.
Little Green Dragon was also all smiles.
“You rascal, I didn’t expect your strength to have reached such an impressive level. Brilliant!” Little Green Dragon gave a thumbs-up.
“Indeed, Elder Lin Yun’s performance was truly dazzling. I truly underestimated your current strength before,” the Second Elder also said with a smiling sigh.
“Pity I couldn’t defeat him or take the arena master position. Little Green Dragon, it’s up to you now. I couldn’t thrash him, so you go up and give him a good beating!” Lin Yun said with a grin.
“Don’t worry, the East Sea Dragon Palace is acting all high and mighty. Today, I’ll take them down a peg in front of all the dragon palaces! And that Ao Tiancheng, who was so arrogant towards you, I’ll make him suffer!” Little Green Dragon declared confidently.
“Little Green Dragon, still, be careful. This guy does have some skill,” Lin Yun cautioned.
Lin Yun knew that both Little Green Dragon and Ao Tiancheng were at seven-clawed strength, the difference being that Little Green Dragon possessed a powerful first-grade bloodline.
In theory, Little Green Dragon should win, but Lin Yun was also wary of any surprises. After all, both were in the same realm, differing only in bloodline grade, so the gap wasn’t overwhelmingly large, leaving room for variables. It wasn’t certain enough to claim absolute victory.
“Don’t worry, I’ll have no problem thrashing him!” Little Green Dragon said confidently.
With that, Little Green Dragon turned and charged towards the arena, instantly transforming into a hundred-metre green dragon.
“The West Sea Dragon Palace’s Dragon King has taken the stage!”
“The West Sea Dragon King is young and hasn’t fully matured, currently only at seven-clawed strength, but he has a first-grade bloodline. His chances of defeating Ao Tiancheng are quite high.”
“But there’s still a chance for surprises.”
“This Heavenly Dragon Platform competition is truly intense.”
…
As Little Green Dragon took the stage, the scene erupted into heated discussion.
This Heavenly Dragon Platform competition was undoubtedly thrilling. In the past, when the Hidden Dragon Abyss opened, the Heavenly Dragon Platform competition could sometimes be won by six-clawed dragons, with seven-clawed ones almost always dominating. This time, the intensity was undeniably much higher.
On the arena.
“Ao Tiancheng, weren’t you just clamouring to keep fighting my brother? Now, I’m taking his place to thrash you!” Little Green Dragon said domineeringly.
Hearing the words “thrash you,” Ao Tiancheng’s expression darkened, clearly displeased.
“West Sea Dragon King, you, a dignified Dragon King, call a human brat, a mere guest elder, your brother? Don’t you find that shameful?” Ao Tiancheng sneered disdainfully.
“Ao Tiancheng, since you put it that way, I’ll have to be even harsher when I strike,” Little Green Dragon said with a cold smile.
