The King of the Gods
Chapter 40: Zhao Linlong's Strength
Along with the judge's announcement, the people returned from a daze. The result was unexpected. Being a dark horse, Zhao Feng continued to dominate his opponents and create miracles.
Now he had defeated the third strongest inner disciple, Zhao Han. Zhao Feng laughed as he sat in the third seat of the first row.
On his right side was Zhao Chi, who was looking at him as if he had only seen him for the first time. When the outer disciple contest had ended, Zhao Chi went to check on Zhao Feng, but at that moment, Zhao Feng was really trash compared to him.
After Zhao Chi defeated Zhao Qin, he casually said that no one had the right to fight for the top three spots. However, right now, Zhao Feng was sitting next to him.
The top three were: Zhao Linlong, Zhao Chi, Zhao Feng.
Next it was Zhao Chi's turn to challenge someone. Zhao Chi lazily stretched his back and landed on the stage.
"Zhao Chi number two, who are you challenging?" Judge smiled.
Being number two, who else could he challenge? Instantly, everyone's eyes turned to Zhao Linlong.
Now that Zhao Chi had ascended onto the stage, no one was blocking his gaze to look at Zhao Linlong. Zhao Linlong was wearing a golden robe. He had thick black eyebrows, and an aura as deep as the sea.
From the start of the tournament, Zhao Linlong's eyes were closed. Even when Zhao Feng defeated Zhao Han, he remained expressionless, as if nothing mattered to him.
“Zhao Linlong, give me a little face. Come on stage.” Zhao Chi said mockingly.
"Number one, Zhao Linlong." Judge warns.
"Hm." Zhao Linlong slowly got up.
As he stood up, he turned into a golden blur. Instantly, he landed on the stage.
"How is there so much Zhao Linlong?"
“Rear view! Very fast!"
Crowd exclaiming. Many spectators could not even see how Zhao Linlong moved.
“What kind of footwork skill is that? It's very complex.” Zhao Feng's brows furrowed.
Although he could see how Zhao Linlong moved with his left eye, he could not see any flaws.
“Zhao Linlong, we haven't met for half a year. It seems like your Step Shadow skill has already reached the peak level. No wonder you are one of the fourth geniuses of Sun Feather City. Zhao Chi was slightly moved.
Step Shadow was a high rank martial art. His fame surpassed most other high ranked martial arts due to his superiority.
A peak level of high rank martial arts!
The disciples could only watch in amazement. No second genius of the Zhao sect could train a high rank martial art to the peak level.
“Zhao Chi, only you can give me resistance. Today, I will suppress my cultivation to the fourth rank and argue with you. ” Zhao Linlong said casually.
Immediately, the other disciple's expression darkened. No one besides Zhao Chi has the right to challenge him? Zhao Linlong's words caused many people to be unhappy.
How does number three, number four, and number five feel?
Zhao Feng's brows furrowed then immediately returned to normal. Ever since he saw the shy girl attacking the strong Hyena in the Sky Cloud Forest, Zhao Feng understood something: "There is always someone stronger than you."
He's tense outwards. He wanted to explore the outside world.
“Hate! Zhao Linlong the.”.
Sitting in the sixth seat of the second row, Zhao Han's face was filled with unwillingness.
Just a moment ago, his cultivation had improved greatly. His Inner Strength had reached the peak of the fifth rank, approaching the sixth rank.
This made him arrogant and a contender for the top inner disciple. In terms of favoritism, he had surpassed Zhao Chi.
However, Zhao Linlong's words hit him to hell. And since he had just lost to Zhao Feng, he had no right to speak out against him.
At this moment, the battle began.
“Boxing Howling Sky!”
Zhao Chi's fist started to glow red. Zhao Chi's Sky Howling Fist was very similar to Zhao Feng's Angry Dragon Fist, but the martial arts tiers differed by one level.
With Zhao Chi fully utilizing the Sky Howling Fist, his strength crept towards the peak of the fifth rank. Adding on his footwork, body strengthening skills and techniques, the scale of the damage was frightening.
“In terms of overall strength, Zhao Chi was indeed harder to fight against compared to Zhao Han. He has almost no flaws, and his attacks are also powerful.” Zhao Feng nodded.
Zhao Han suppressed his opponents by defeating them with Inner Strength, but his speed and defense were not strong.
"Receive my punch!" Zhao Chi shouted on the stage as his fist swept across Zhao Linlong.
The soup!
Zhao Chi's fist did not even touch his robe.
What was even more frightening was that Zhao Linlong was only half a meter away from him. Zhao Chi was sweating coldly.
Right now, he could even smell Zhao Linlong.
“Smoking Rain Steps!”
Zhao Chi after all was not in vain. Immediately, he used a high rank footwork skill and began exchanging blows with Zhao Linlong.
Soon, the two figures were having a dialogue. Both of them used high ranked martial arts.
The reason why Zhao Linlong said that Zhao Chi was the only one who could fight him was because Zhao Chi had learned many high-level martial arts.
High ranking fist skills! High rank footwork skills! High rank body strengthening technique ... All these skills have been trained to a high level.
Zhao Chi continued to attack with this skill. Now his momentum had surpassed Zhao Linlong. Even though his momentum had surpassed Zhao Linlong, Zhao Chi was still pushed back. After exchanging twenty blows, Zhao Linlong continued to defeat him with fourth rank cultivation alone.
"I will make you lose willingly!" Zhao Linlong smiled faintly.
He raised his finger and a purple blue aura swirled around.
Shua!
Only threads of Inner Strength sent out terrifying auras.
"From Spatial Clouds!"
The finger seemed to open a hole in the clouds. That was…
Zhao Chi took a deep breath as he gathered all of his Inner Strength to fight the finger.
"The Sky Howls Jumping Thunder!" Zhao Chi's fist glowed red flames as it faced the finger.
This fist power exceeded any skill that had been used so far in the tournament. But, even though his fist looked powerful, it seemed like it was an ant compared to Zhao Linlong's ordinary finger.
Hooong—
The two movements eventually clashed. Zhao Chi immediately felt the copper liquid inside his mouth as he was thrown backwards.
"Not bad, you can block my 'peak rank' martial art." A golden-robed young man appeared with his hands behind his back.
“Top ranked martial arts? I did not lose unfairly.” Zhao Chi said bitterly as he gave up.
Spatial Cloud Finger!
A top ranked martial art!
Surprised crowd.
When did Zhao Linlong learn a peak ranked martial art?
“Hehe, Zhao Linlong has learned the first three moves of the Spatial Cloud Finger. That's the first new.” Sect head Zhao Tiancang said proudly.
“Congratulations for having received such a good stepchild.” The elders came and congratulated the sect head.
Zhao Linlong was the head stepson of the sect! No wonder he could learn a peak ranked martial art. But the problem was that a peak ranked martial art usually required one to reach the seventh rank of the martial path in order to comprehend it. Those who could learn top-ranked skills were usually Martial Masters!
….
“Zhao Chi! The challenge fails, the ranking does not change. Zhao Linlong, the rankings have not changed. Judges announced.
Zhao Linlong and Zhao Chi returned to their seats. Returning to his seat, Zhao Linlong was expressionless and did not challenge anyone. According to him, there was nothing left to challenge.
The first round of the challenging contest ended. Next is the second round of challenging contests. There are a total of three opportunities to challenge someone per person.
There were hardly any challengers in the second round. But when it was number sixteen, Zhao Han's turn, he immediately challenged Zhao Qin's number four and won.
He continued on by challenging Zhao Chi number two and Zhao Linlong number one. The result was that he managed to bind Zhao Chi by using his Inner Strength.
But when he met Zhao Linlong, Zhao Han was defeated in three steps. He wasn't like Zhao Chi, who had absolute defense, so he couldn't even fend off Zhao Linlong's three moves.
First place Zhao Linlong... Second place Zhao Chi... Third place Zhao Feng... Fourth place Zhao Han.
They were the top four inner disciples. No one dared to challenge them.
Of the four, Zhao Linlong took the lead at the front by defeating Zhao Chi and Zhao Han. Only Zhao Feng did not come into contact with Zhao Linlong.
"Third place Zhao Feng, it's your turn to challenge someone" the judge said.
