Chapter 3768: You are about to meet your match
Ling Han and Tang Yan left the Political Hostage Manor and headed to the location of the tournament.
Previously, Tang Yan had already registered for him. Thus, Ling Han only had to announce his name now, and after testing his cultivation level, he could begin the competition.
On the surface, the Azure Dragon Majestic Empire was a Sect Master-level force, but in secret, there was also a Venerate Tier overseer. From a certain aspect, this could even compare to the Holy Land of Metal Element. The difference was that the Azure Dragon Majestic Empire had too few Venerate Tiers, only one, and they didn’t have a Saint Tool, so they couldn’t be everlasting.
—Just look, what force would invade the Holy Land? Whether or not there was a Saint overseeing things, the Holy Land was still so high and mighty, and could not be violated.
This was their background.
The Azure Dragon Majestic Empire was already powerful enough. Not only had the various planets subordinate to it sent mighty figures over to celebrate His Majesty’s birthday, but even the forces of many galaxies had sent envoys.
Meanwhile, the Shadow Moon Majestic Empire also halted their invasion. In fact, they even sent envoys over.
On the surface, it was obviously to celebrate his birthday, but in truth, they wanted to investigate the situation of that old Venerate Tier from the Azure Dragon Majestic Empire, to see how serious his injuries were, and how much battle prowess he still had left.
If this Venerate Tier was already done for, then the Shadow Moon Majestic Empire would increase its offensive when it returned, swallowing more resources of the Azure Dragon Majestic Empire.
Even though there were nine days of screening time, in truth, because there were too many people participating, they all wanted to show off in front of Meng Yonghua. Thus, the competition was still very fierce, and there were too many people who had to be eliminated.
In the first round, it would be a direct battle royale, and 90% of the participants would be eliminated.
The rules were very simple. There would be ten people in a group, and only one person would be able to walk out.
The tournament began, and Ling Han pounced out like a fierce tiger.
“Aiyo!” Tang Yan couldn’t help but press a hand on his forehead. You, an alchemist, have to be so fierce? Couldn’t you have kept a low profile, and let others fight to the death, and then calmly take advantage of the situation in the end? Now that you are the first to charge out, you naturally have become the first to stick out your head. If they don’t hit you, who would they hit?
As expected, the other nine people were on guard against each other at first, and no one dared to act rashly, but now that Ling Han had rushed out, he naturally became the target of everyone.
Everyone moved one after another, blasting towards Ling Han.
Ling Han laughed loudly, and with a sweep of his leg, peng, peng, peng, the force of the kick swept past. Like an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, the nine people were all sent flying. Like a celestial maiden scattering flowers, they fell from the skies, and not one of them could get back to their feet.
It was just a kick, and he had dealt with all of them. F***!
Tang Yan couldn’t help but stare in shock. If it were him, even if he suppressed his cultivation level to Ultimate Dao Foundation, he would still be able to easily defeat those nine people. After all, there were all kinds of people mixed together. With so many Foundation Building Tier cultivators participating in the competition, how many prodigies could actually participate?
However, Ling Han was different. He was an alchemist, and a grandmaster that was destined to become an Earth Tier High Grade alchemist .
How could there be someone who was both dazzlingly talented in alchemy and brilliantly talented in martial arts?
He realized that he had still underestimated the value of Ling Han.
After Ling Han won, he had about ten minutes’ time to rest before starting the next battle.
This time, it was not a group fight, but a one-on-one battle. His opponent had also just emerged victorious from the ten-man battle.
Tang Yan was no longer worried, and merely watched quietly.
As expected, Ling Han was invincible, and there was no one that could match him in ten moves. Usually, he would be able to deal with his opponent in five to six moves, and even the hardest to deal with would not be able to block ten moves from him.
And this was still because Ling Han had deliberately gone easy on him. Otherwise, if he unleashed his full battle prowess, it was probable that only around a thousand people in the Foundation Building Tier of Galaxy Network would be able to block one move from him. A hundred people would be able to block ten moves from him, and there would only be about ten people that could truly fight him head-on.
However, Ling Han believed that he would definitely be the final victor.
After this day’s battle, Tang Yan did not send Ling Han back to the Political Hostage Manor, but rather to his Marquis Residence.
As a titled Marquis, he had his own manor. Though it was far from being comparable to the Tang Clan Manor, it still occupied an extremely large area and was glorious.
“It’s all right if I don’t go back?” Ling Han asked with a smile.
“It’s all right. I don’t believe that Meng Shuchang would dare to come to my place and demand for your return,” Tang Yan said domineeringly. He had already sent someone to inform Jia Yuan Manor that Ling Han would be a guest at his residence tonight.
On the second day, after Ling Han finished cultivating, he began to battle again. Sweeping, sweeping, sweeping. There was absolutely no one that could be Ling Han’s match, even if as time passed, the opponents he encountered became more and more powerful.
Nine days passed in the blink of an eye, and Ling Han also emerged victorious, becoming one of the final competitors.
And his opponent was Wang Yafei.
“You will meet your match tomorrow.” Tang Yan said seriously, “This Wang Yafei is not so simple. Though he is not an Innate Divine Physique, he has fused with the remains of an ancient great elite. His battle prowess is considerably frightening, and is at least comparable to a sixth grade Divine Physique. Furthermore, he has been suppressing his cultivation level without breaking through, and that is because he wants to become famous through a battle at His Majesty’s birthday banquet, so that his name would soar sky-high.” “Though the Wang Clan is only a True Self Tier force, they have clearly prepared for today for a very, very long time. Even if I step out… they probably won’t give me face either.” Ling Han cracked a smile, “It’s all right. I was worried that my opponent wasn’t strong enough. That would be so boring.”
Tang Yan couldn’t help but be rendered speechless. After a while, he finally said, “That guy has stayed at the peak stage of the Ultimate Dao Foundation for at least thirty years. It’s not that he doesn’t have the ability to cross over, but that he has been suppressing it all this while. Furthermore, the Wang Clan has even been preparing this matter since fifty years ago. Thus, they must have prepared a great many powerful rare treasures for Wang Yafei. Additionally, they must have studied the images of your battles these few days thoroughly.” Ling Han couldn’t help but laugh loudly. In the past few days, he had only been casually battling, because his opponent was too weak. He didn’t need to use his full strength at all. “You’re still in the mood to laugh?” Tang Yan shook his head, and said, “His Majesty is an extremely competitive person, so in his eyes, the second place is nothing but bullsh*t. Only the victor deserves to be rewarded. Thus, even if you fight so hard all the way to the finals, if you lose, you are still bullsh*t.”
Ling Han patted Tang Yan’s shoulder and said, “I said don’t worry, so just relax. It’s fine.
Believe me.”
Tang Yan pondered for a moment before saying, “Just you wait. I’ll return to the clan to see if
I can find you some rare treasures.”
He left just like that, energetically.
At midnight, Tang Yan returned again, stuffing a sword and a cloak into Ling Han’s hands.
“This is the Star Fragment Sword, and it’s extremely sharp. After you activate it with your mystical power, you’ll be able to unleash a devastating Sword Qi. It’s similarly indestructible,” Tang Yan explained. “Also, this is the Blood Moon Cloak. It was personally refined by the ancestor of the Tang Clan. It can activate the Blood Moon Shield, and even Cauldron Forging Tiers need some time to blast it open.”
“However, the Blood Moon Cloak needs to be instilled with power beforehand. At most, it can
only activate the shield twice. Take it easy.”
Ling Han didn’t need these two treasures at all, but since Tang Yan was so cordial, he couldn’t bring himself to refuse. Thus, he accepted them, and said, “All right.”
