“What? He actually injured the elder of the Blood Moon Alliance?”
Countless exclamations of shock rang out across the venue.
Even the elders of the Dao Alliance and the six major forces in the VIP section sat up straight in surprise, their eyes filled with astonishment.
No one had anticipated this turn of events.
“Has Brother Beichen truly become this powerful?” The Wu Manor Lord and his two sons stared in utter shock, waves of turmoil surging in their hearts.
“To injure an elder of the Blood Moon Alliance is truly impressive!” Master Hong Yuan also exclaimed in admiration.
“Is Friend Beichen really this strong!?” The Pavilion Master of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion below the arena was equally stunned.
On the arena.
The fierce exchanges continued without pause. Lin Yun’s treasured sword struck like lightning repeatedly, while the Blood Moon Alliance elder gritted his teeth and met the attacks.
After being caught off guard and injured earlier, the elder no longer dared to underestimate his opponent, yet in this clash, he was genuinely falling into a disadvantage.
Bear in mind that the Blood Moon Alliance elder, in order to crush Lin Yun outright, had unleashed his most powerful techniques right from the start. Even under those circumstances, he was still being pushed back.
“Elder Wei, if you also see me as an easy target, you are gravely mistaken!”
Lin Yun’s ferocious onslaught enveloped the Blood Moon Alliance elder relentlessly, forcing him to retreat step by step.
The elder possessed an Indestructible Divine Body, so the earlier wound did not affect him greatly. However, if the fight continued in this manner, he would likely lose!
“Damn bastard!”
“Did you think that, as an elder of the Blood Moon Alliance daring to compete here, I have no other means?”
After one collision, the Blood Moon Alliance elder swiftly retreated, sheathed his war blade, and drew a massive one that glowed entirely red, radiating towering bloody light.
“A Source Artefact?” Lin Yun was startled.
The war blade the Blood Moon Alliance elder had used before was already a Great Luo Heavenly Soldier. If he switched it now, it must be for a Source Artefact!
In every Peak Competition, why could the Dao Alliance and the six major forces monopolise the top places? Apart from their inherently strong foundations, a key reason was that most contestants from the Dao Alliance and the six major forces possessed Source Artefacts.
These forces would lend Source Artefacts to their contestants to help them seize victory.
A single Source Artefact provided a natural advantage that other contestants could not match.
This was one major reason the Dao Alliance and the six major forces often monopolised the Peak Competition championship.
“This fellow has actually forced Elder Wei of the Blood Moon Alliance to use a Source Artefact!” The elder from the White Mist Tower sat upright, staring intently at the arena.
“With the Source Artefact out, the tide of battle will probably turn.”
“Still, for him to push a Blood Moon Alliance elder to this extent, even if he loses today, it will be enough to make his name resound across the world,” the elder from the Serene Moon Valley said, gazing at Lin Yun on the arena.
“Winning by relying on a weapon brings no glory, even if the Blood Moon Alliance elder prevails,” Yu Rou remarked beside the Serene Moon Valley elder.
“Sister, do you also feel that the fellow on the stage called Beichen seems somehow familiar?” Yu Qing asked, turning to her sworn sister Yu Rou.
“There is a sense of familiarity, but we do not know him,” Yu Rou replied.
After the Blood Moon Alliance elder revealed his Source Artefact, the spectators likewise sighed, believing the battle was about to reverse.
After all, an elder from a top force like the Blood Moon Alliance already possessed formidable techniques. Paired with a Source Artefact, how could an ordinary person compete?
Even An Yun and Zou Dongsheng grew tense at this moment.
“Young Lord, you must win!” An Yun clenched her fists tightly, extremely nervous.
They did have some confidence in Lin Yun’s strength, but since he had been in seclusion these years, they truly did not know to what level his power had reached.
They believed that without a Source Artefact, the opponent would lose to Lin Yun.
But once the opponent brought out a Source Artefact, they feared Lin Yun might fall!
On the arena.
“Kid, today I will slaughter you!”
With the Source Artefact in hand, the Blood Moon Alliance elder’s confidence soared instantly.
“This Source Artefact is not yours. You merely borrowed it for use, so you cannot unleash its full power. Do you think I will fear you just because you bring out a Source Artefact?” Lin Yun showed no fear whatsoever.
Before participating in the Peak Competition, Lin Yun had long anticipated that he would face opponents wielding Source Artefacts.
