Becoming The Lord Of Sword From Today On

With a heavy step forward with his right foot, Ning Zhi clenched his fists, and spiritual energy surged out from his body. The violent spiritual energy was like a flood, pouring into the fist. The next moment, a terrifying storm sounded and the shadow of a flood dragon flew out.    

However, just as he used his killing move, his expression froze. In his eyes, the phantom of a violent flood dragon had just taken shape. It was cut into two by Lin Chen's sword, turning into nothingness. After that, the dazzling sword light filled his line of sight, and nothing could be seen.    

Puchi!    

The protective spirit energy shattered, and Ning Zi was sent flying backwards.    

Insta-kill!    

The audience below the stage instantly fell silent.    

"Lin Chen wins!" The judge, who was experienced and knowledgeable, immediately announced when he saw the victor was decided.    

As the judge's voice fell, the silent crowd cheered again.    

At this time, the matches on the various rings were still going on intensely. Lin Chen sat cross-legged under the stage and did not care much about the situation of other people's matches.    

In the afternoon, after Lin Chen easily defeated another Eighth Layer of Astral Reaching Stage warrior, there were only 24 people left in the 38th ring.    

Another four hours passed, and the second day ended. On the third day of his arrival, Lin Chen won two more matches in a row. There were only six participating disciples left around the arena. According to the rules of the preliminary round, after competing for three people, two people were randomly selected to compete for the last name.    

At this moment, Lin Chen's opponent for the last round was actually the one Jiang Han and the others were talking about, the champion of the first level Sun Moon Stage, Hei Tian.    

"Lin Chen versus Black Sky!"    

Boom!    

As soon as the judge's voice was heard, there was a commotion everywhere. Lin Chen had gained some reputation after winning the previous matches, and this Hei Tou was already very famous amongst the outer circle disciples, so this match had attracted a lot of people's attention.    

"A dark horse versus a veteran outer circle disciple, this is amazing!"    

"I wonder who is stronger between Lin Chen and Hei Tian. One of them is this year's dark horse, I'm really looking forward to it."    

"I think Hei Tou will win. After all, he is a veteran disciple, and Lin Chen is just a young man who has just entered the sect."    

"I think highly of Lin Chen. His strength is obvious to all. He has overcome all obstacles along the way."    

Discussions broke out below the stage.    

On the arena.    

Lin Chen and Hei Tian stood 30 meters away from each other.    

Although Hei Tian was a popular disciple. After seeing Lin Chen's astonishing performance, she didn't dare to underestimate him. As soon as she stepped onto the stage, she immediately ignited the flame airflow. Layers and layers of flame armor were set up around her body. The shocking heat caused the ground to start boiling.    

"Flaming Fist!"    

Hei Tianxian was the first to launch an attack. His body flashed, and the fist wrapped in flames broke through the air and smashed towards Lin Chen.    

Buzz!    

The invisible sword intent spread out, and a faint ripple slowly appeared in the void. Lin Chen took a step forward, and with the Green Cloud Sword in his hand, he slashed out with great force.    

Boom!    

Flames splashed in all directions, and Hei Tian was forced back. However, Lin Chen didn't move at all.    

"Be careful!"    

After forcing Hei Tian back with one sword strike, Lin Chen's figure split into four and attacked from all directions.    

"Let's do it!" Hei Tian, who was at the Sun Moon Stage, saw through Lin Chen's true form and threw a punch at him.    

The sound of rocks cracking could be heard. In front of him, dozens of meters away, every inch of space was under the attack of Hei Tian. There was no blind spot, so Lin Chen had no way to escape.    

Swoosh!    

The Green Cloud Sword slashed out vertically, and a sword energy that was almost a full moon appeared. The fist shadows that were in a straight line were cut open one after another. In the next moment, a huge hole appeared in Black Sky's flaming armor. This sword attack had almost broken through her defense. The power contained in the sword Qi made his blood boil. He retreated continuously.    

"What a powerful sword qi." Hei Tian was shocked and quickly retreated.    

"Fire Break!"    

After finally getting rid of Lin Chen's sword Qi, he threw out a punch. The ground cracked, and the void collapsed as he threw it at Lin Chen.    

In the next moment, the arena collapsed, but Lin Chen was nowhere to be seen. When he reappeared, he was already on the right side of the Dark Sky. Another sword suddenly slashed out. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to react in time. Even Sun Moon Stage warriors were caught off guard.    

Crack!    

The Black Sky Protective Fire Armor was shattered, and a mouthful of blood was spat out as it was sent flying.    

"Damn, Lin Chen is too abnormal. He has firmly suppressed the popular disciple, Black Sky, from the very beginning."    

"Lin Chen is really strong. No wonder he is the dark horse. He is even more powerful than I imagined!"    

"He is only a Seventh Layer of Astral Reaching Stage warrior, is he really that powerful? He directly jumped ranks to fight!    

"Hahaha, I saw that you were paying attention to him just now. This Lin Chen has been fighting with a higher cultivation base from the beginning until the end, and he has always been crushing his opponents!"    

Not only the ordinary outer circle disciples were shocked, but some of the inner circle disciples were also sighing in their hearts. Obviously, a high level battle was really pleasing to the eyes.    

Looking at the battlefield once again, when Lin Chen's second sword strike arrived, the color of the black sky's eyes turned fiery. It was as if the depths of his pupils contained numerous terrifying volcanoes that were about to erupt at any moment.    

"Fire of Heaven and Earth!"    

The sound of heat waves whistling could be heard. In almost an instant, the true qi of the flaming armor outside Hei Tian's body surged to the left, forming a fireball half a meter in size. It charged towards Lin Chen, exploding in the air and unleashing shocking rings of flame. Even from afar, Lin Chen could feel a scorching heat approaching him.    

"Good timing!" Lin Chen raised the Green Cloud Sword with both of his hands. The air was distorted, and electric arcs lingered around it. The space above his head dimmed, and four sword intent crazily poured into the sword.    

Puff!    

The sword struck out, and a black sword mark suddenly appeared in the void. It was an absolute vacuum, and it was not affected by any external force.    

Splash! Splash! Splash!    

Countless electric arcs spread out and instantly occupied half of the arena. In the middle of the electric arcs, there was a bright sword body that instantly slashed toward the fireball.    

Boom!    

The explosion of the fireball was powerful enough, but Lin Chen's sword intent Fusion Sword slashed down. A violent explosion occurred in the center of the explosion once again. At that moment... The surrounding light barrier had expanded a circle, then it retracted back.    

Terrifying spiritual energy shockwaves swept out in all directions. Both of them were forced back, and blood flowed out from the corner of their mouths. However, compared to Hei Tian, Lin Chen was forced to take a few steps back.    

In the end, Lin Chen had won this round of collision.    

"Storm Fire Dragon!"    

Black Head shouted. The flames that filled the sky gathered in the void in front of him. They spun crazily and kept compressing and expanding. In less than a blink of an eye, a huge fire dragon appeared.    

Hu!    

In the next moment, he threw his hand, and the fire dragon roared as it rushed towards Lin Chen. It expanded rapidly along the way, burning everything in front of it.    

It was not enough to create a giant dragon. He created another four fire dragons that looked exactly the same as before, and they all rushed towards Lin Chen.    

For a moment, the entire space was engulfed by flames, leaving only Lin Chen standing in the middle of the flames with his sword in hand.    

However, he did not panic at all. His face was still as calm as water.
