Chapter 280 Fight Alone

The entire audience wasn’t optimistic about Lin Xun’s situation!

However, Lin Xun didn’t waver in the slightest. He hadn’t encountered any real danger since starting the provincial examination.

His battle against Tan Long and Yue Zhongtian both ended in one move. He completely suppressed his opponents and hadn’t truly fought.

Now, facing four Earth Dipper cultivators and one Heaven Dipper cultivator, he felt pressure for the first time in the exam.

In fact, Lin Xun wanted to be put into such a situation. Only when he fought against true opponents would he deeply understand himself and realize the gap between him and his enemies!

Lin Xun stood quietly, without uttering a word. But the Storm Grinder was already mobilized in his body and his aeth dipper power was roaring like waves.

His eyebrows were sharp as blades and his black eyes flashed like lightning. He was akin to a volcano on the verge of erupting. A dreamy sky-blue glow had enveloped his body, highlighting his imposing and superior bearing.

Huh?

Many people narrowed their eyes as they sensed a change in Lin Xun’s aura. They couldn’t help but wonder whether Lin Xun was finally going to mobilize all his strength.

Some people could tell that Lin Xun’s change was because he felt pressure and danger!

Le Zhiyou, Liu Kesheng, Wu Cen, Zhai Xiuyuan and Chen Cheng also noticed the change in Lin Xun’s aura. A chill came to their hearts. They rapidly accumulated power and were ready to act.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

They drew their weapons without the slightest hesitation. Swords glinted and beams of blade light shot in all directions. Fierce killing intent pervaded the area and instantly turned the atmosphere chilling.

Evidently, they didn’t dare to be careless facing Lin Xun despite their advantage in number.

Having witnessed Lin Xun’s performances in the first and second rounds of the examination, they knew he was a demon-like fierce character. Even if he was only at the Human Dipper Stage, his true strength was extremely terrifying.

No one would dare to underestimate such a fierce opponent unless they were an idiot.

Even Le Zhiyou, a top figure in the Heaven Dipper Stage, was on full alert and didn’t dare to underestimate Lin Xun.

They just found it strange that Lin Xun seemed to have no intention of using a weapon. His hands were bare and no one could understand what he was thinking.

Regardless, they were ready to get rid of Lin Xun in the battle!

……

Clang!

A clear and melodious bell signaled the start of the third round.

Instantly, Le Zhiyou and the other five acted at the same time, launching an attack right away!

“Earth Destroyer Slash!”

Following a roar, a dazzling beam of black sword light streaked down from above like a ferocious dragon and ripped apart the void.

It was Le Zhiyou. He launched an attack with lightning speed. His black sword tore the air with incredible power.

Gasps rang out in rapid succession. That’s the power of the Heaven Dipper Stage. It’s indeed tyrannical!

Almost at the same time, Liu Kesheng, Wu Cen, Zhai Xiuyuan and Chen Cheng were charging forward from different directions.

A bronze umbrella sprang open and rapidly rotated like a whirlpool, spewing out a thousand arrows of fiery-red aeth dipper qi. It was dazzling and spectacular like fireworks exploding in the air.

Boom!

On the other side, a large golden ax swung up in a mighty manner like it was about to sever the universe.

A long chain made up of solid bones fluttered into the air like a python shot out from an abyss, creating ripples in the air.

Screeeee!

A pair of brass battle-axes split the air with an ear-piercing whistle and lightning speed.

In the blink of an eye, the bronze umbrella, golden ax, long chain of bones, and brass battle ax soared into the air. Each weapon was beautiful yet chilling.

The weapons came from the hands of Liu Kesheng, Wu Cen, Zhai Xiuyuan and Chen Cheng. They acted at the same time as Le Zhiyou and fully displayed the tremendous power of the Earth Dipper Stage.

That combined attack caused a sensation in the audience. Everyone stared unblinkingly at the arena lest they miss anything.

It was too terrifying. The battle had only just begun but Le Zhiyou and the others had already unleashed their full strength and showed no mercy. It was obvious that they intended to eliminate Lin Xun in the shortest time possible!

Everything happened in a split second. Ordinary cultivators would have been suppressed and eliminated before they could respond to the attacks.

Fortunately, Lin Xun wasn’t an ordinary cultivator!

Boom!

Just as Le Zhiyou and others launched an attack, Lin Xun also acted. He swiftly charged forward and aimed the Smashing Mountain attack directly at Le Zhiyou, who was directly opposite him.

He didn’t evade or dodge the multiple attacks.

To catch bandits, first catch the ringleader. If he could get rid of Le Zhiyou, he would remove his biggest threat!

Rumble!

A blast of wind crushed the surrounding space and, with a deafening explosion, shattered the beam of black sword light that Le Zhiyou launched out.

That was the power of one punch. It was like a sacred mountain crashing down and destroying everything in the way!

Le Zhiyou snorted coldly. His sword danced in the air and dissolved the attack. However, he tottered and couldn’t help but wince. This guy’s strength is too abnormal!

Almost at the same time, Lin Xun wrinkled his brows. He had already mobilized all his strength in the attack yet Le Le Zhiyou managed to block it!

Evidently, Le Zhiyou wasn’t easy to deal with.

Lin Xun didn’t think much about it. He also didn’t have time to think about it. Liu Kesheng and the other Earth Dipper cultivators were charging toward him from all directions!

Lin Xun couldn’t evade in time and had to meet the attacks head-on. His figure flashed across the air and his fist slammed out like a dragon. Aeth dipper power spread out from his body like waves and he exuded a superior, invincible and imposing bearing.

Rumble—

Divine light erupted on the arena, mist splattered everywhere, and blazing light engulfed the area. The scene was terrifying and chilling.

For a moment, the audience stood dazzled and stunned at the intense battle, their minds swaying.

They were most astonished that even if Lin Xun was only at the Human Dipper Stage and was unarmed, he managed to withstand the attacks from all four Earth Dipper Stage cultivators and a Heaven Dipper cultivator!

At that moment, Lin Xun was standing alone but his bearing was as fierce and imposing as that of a dragon. Sky-blue mist constantly spiraled around his body. He was like a terrifying volcano on the verge of erupting, and his every movement unleashed a terrifying power.

Not even multiple strong attacks could suppress him for a short moment!

He’s too terrifying!

Many people trembled inwardly, finding it hard to believe that Lin Xun was at the Human Dipper Stage.

Unbelievable!

All eyes were fixed unblinkingly on the No 9 arena. Naturally, Lin Xun who was still standing in the face of several attacks received the most attention.

“That guy is too abnormal. He’s a freak!”

Xue Shaolin, Yu Wenjing, Yun Zitong and the others were confident that Lin Xun would lose and looked forward to seeing how Lin Xun would lose.

Who would have thought that everything that had happened in the arena destroyed their expectation?

Most terrifyingly, Lin Xun was only at the Human Dipper Stage!

If the matter that a teenager countered the joint attacks of four Earth Dipper Stage cultivators and one Heaven Dipper cultivator spread out, it would no doubt cause a sensation in the empire!

”I knew that he would only use his real power now...”

Wen Mingxiu’s expression was complicated. She couldn’t compose herself knowing how much stronger Lin Xun had grown since he fought against Huang Jianchen.

I still remember when he first entered Blood Kill Camp more than a year ago, he was only at the fifth layer True Martial Stage!

But now...he has such accomplishments!

If you didn’t know about Lin Xun, you would likely find it impossible to believe!

Boom!

The fierce battle continued in the arena. Everywhere was rumbling and quaking.

The grave and solemn expression deepened on the faces of Le Zhiyou and the other four Earth Dipper Stage cultivators.

They had never thought that Lin Xun would be so tenacious. They had all activated their aeth tools and displayed their secret arts without any reservation yet they still couldn’t suppress Lin Xun. It was too unbelievable!

Who would believe that a Human Dipper cultivator could achieve that?

Kill!

Kill!

Kill!

They didn’t dare to think anymore. They gritted their teeth and operated their secret arts to their fullest. It was as though Lin Xun was their greatest enemy.

It would be very humiliating if they couldn’t defeat Lin Xun even if they had joined forces!

They increased their attack power to protect their dignity and their victory. It was as though they were fighting for their lives.

Fortunately for them, Lin Xun’s brilliance was gradually being oppressed. He started to show signs of exhaustion and was drawing back

Le Zhiyou and others secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but they didn’t lessen their attacks. On the contrary, the power of their attacks intensified.

They knew that they must not allow Lin Xun a chance to breathe. Otherwise unpredictable changes could happen!

At that point in the battle, everyone could tell that Lin Xun’s momentum had been suppressed and it wouldn’t be long before he would be defeated.

Many people felt relieved. It would be very abnormal if even Le Zhiyou and the others couldn’t defeat Lin Xun after joining hands!

However, some people were worried and anxious for Lin Xun. They couldn’t bear to see him defeated because they thought he was a remarkable miracle to be able to hold up against Le Zhiyou and the others despite only being at the Human Dipper Stage. They didn’t want the miracle to end!

“From the looks of it, Lin Xun is doomed to lose no matter how heaven-defying his strength is. It’s unfortunate that he unluckily drew such opponents. Given his strength, he could likely compete with the geniuses of the younger generation in the Forbidden City…” Wei Lingzhen, the Principal of Haze Academy, sighed as if he had foreseen Lin Xun’s result.
