Dragon Blooded War God

After the rules of the second round were announced, the intense duels began. Long Chen’s number was near the front, so only four or five pairs were up before him. Every battle was extremely intense, and all of them used Divine-tier combat techniques. Even the results could only be described as tragic. Many of them were excellent cultivators who could certainly qualify to be Underworld Soldiers, yet they were eliminated because of one or two mistakes.

Very soon, it was Long Chen and Song Yuchun’s turn. The crowd was looking forward to this duel because of the conflict from before. One represented justice, while the other represented the opposite.

Song Yuchun was an example of what not to be. His previous performance was not even good enough to obtain three passes, and Long Chen had performed much better than him.

Therefore, everyone was looking forward to seeing Long Chen beat him up.

They all watched expectantly as Long Chen leaped into the pit. Opposite, Song Yuchun also leaped down, and they both engaged in a standoff. To the crowd’s surprise, Song Yuchun did not look worried at all. Instead, he gazed at Long Chen smugly, as if he was confident he would win.

This person clearly has a trick up his sleeve. It looks like Ye Xuan was right. His grandfather has given him something that will keep him alive and maybe even kill me.

Ye Xuan had given Long Chen a Shield Talisman, which could protect him from a Divine Martial Realm expert’s attack, so Long Chen was not worried.

Only the person who got the last laugh would win. Long Chen did not care about people like Song Yuchun.

Song Yuchun pointed at Long Chen, about to say something. But the moment Qin Xiong announced to begin, Long Chen immediately charged at him, turning into a red gust of wind.

Song Yuchun was privately furious. He did not actually believe that he would lose to Long Chen, and he would only use the item his grandfather gave him as a last resort.

The Emperor Vanquishers appeared on Long Chen’s hands. His right hand was filled with the warm, Yang-energy, Golden Sword Soul. His left hand was filled with a cold, Yin-energy, Black Sword Soul. The two sword souls formed energy fields around his hands, greatly boosting his combat abilities.

“Tyrannosaurus Punch!”

He threw two consecutive punches, one golden and one black. When the golden warmth and black chill mixed together, they formed a two-layered attack. It was no longer one-plus-one-equals-two anymore, but it equated to much more.

Boom!

When Song Yuchun saw the attack, he turned pale. His instinct told him that this was not a Divine-tier attack, but Long Chen was the only person who had ever used an advanced Emperor-tier technique to this level.

“No!”

Even if Song Yuchun died, he would never admit defeat!

He could see all the faces in the crowd above. Everyone wished he would lose, and they had already decided that he would lose. He had a grandfather who was a Thousand-Sergeant, so his status had been high all his life. How could he be looked down on like that here?

“Nine-Layered Yin-Yang Wheel!”n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Song Yuchun brought both palms together and twisted them. Under his control, the essence in his hands quickly turned into a spinning Yin-Yang symbol. The image instantly expanded, then there was a loud boom. It spun as it shot out at Long Chen!

The attack quickly formed nine layers. This was a nine-layered attack that could serve both as an attack and a defensive technique. It was an excellent Divine-tier combat technique!

This was the technique that Song Yang was the proudest of. It was passed down in their family, and Song Yang had found it in a Divine Martial Realm expert’s grave while on an assignment once.

This Divine-tier technique was not the same as the previous one he had used, which meant that Song Yuchun had learned two Divine-tier techniques.

Within the Underworld Army, it was considered above average for someone to learn two techniques. The crowd’s impression of him started to change when they saw him use this attack. Indeed, if he had used this technique earlier, perhaps he would have actually gotten the right to receive three passes.

Song Yuchun was initially saving this skill as his trump card so that he could use it in the future when he was fighting to become a Sergeant. He had not expected Long Chen to force him to use it.

“Die!”

Song Yuchun’s dolled-up face was unbelievably red. Due to the great trembling of the attack, a lot of his powder had fallen off.

Long Chen was also a bit shocked to see the Nine-Layered Yin-Yang Wheel.

The corners of his mouth curled up into a cold smirk. By then, both his Tyrannosaurus Punches had landed on the Nine-Layered Yin-Yang Wheel, but then they bounced back and Long Chen was thrown back into the air.

“He lost?” The crowd was stunned.

They did not wish for Long Chen to lose to Song Yuchun.

However, after Long Chen was thrown back, he quickly flipped in mid-air. His aura transformed dramatically. If he was previously a furious Tyrannosaurus, he was now an emperor who ruled over all living beings.

The image of an emperor appeared behind him.

“Emperor’s Manual, Emperor’s Arrival!”

Long Chen threw a golden punch downwards. This was the punch that had directly killed the Purple Lightning Giant. The whole arena was amazed by his attack.

This attack had once killed an Eighth Heavenly Martial Stage cultivator.

Although Song Yuchun’s Divine-tier attack was excellent with nine layers of defense, Long Chen’s Emperor’s Arrival pierced through them. One by one, the layers exploded and broke!

“Impossible!” Song Yuchun had hoped that Long Chen’s attack could not pierce through his nine layers of defenses.

To his despair, Long Chen’s attack seemed to contain unstoppable momentum. It pierced through every layer and even became stronger at the last layer. The crowd gasped when it pierced through the final layer. There was a loud boom, a crack, and the final layer exploded!

“I can see you now.” Long Chen chuckled and threw a punch. The remaining momentum of the punch landed on Song Yuchun’s body!

Blood sprayed out of Song Yuchun’s mouth and he was thrown back into the air. Long Chen landed gracefully, while Song Yuchun tumbled several times. He clambered clumsily to his feet. This was the most pathetic he had ever looked. His luxurious clothing was covered with black soil and his face was mixed with soil and blood, making him look dirty.

The crowd cheered above.

“Long Chen is powerful! Despite Song Yuchun’s strong attack, he managed to defeat it.”

“He has a resilient mind, remains calm in dangerous situations, and is bold but observant. If this person is given enough space to grow, he might turn into a prominent figure someday.”

“Song Yuchun is clearly no match for him. He needs to surrender. Scum like that will just be parasites if they enter the Underworld Army, then get kicked out someday.”

“Kicked out? You underestimate his grandfather. He’s a Divine Martial Realm expert, a Thousand-Sergeant!”

“I guess I underestimated him.”

Discussions like that rang everywhere. Among the crowd, Song Yang’s face turned green.

His grandson was injured.

But no matter how badly he was hurt, he was capable of taking that item out.

His precious grandson had been bullied so tragically. How could Song Yang let this happen?

As he expected, Song Yuchun clenched his teeth and stood up in front of the whole crowd. He glared at Long Chen and said, “It looks like tomorrow will be the day of your funeral!”

“Just use whatever you’ve got. I’m waiting. Don’t waste time.” Long Chen was already expecting it. The brat had already taken something out of his storage ring and was hiding it in his sleeve.

“You know about it? Then die!”

Song Yuchun laughed and threw out the talisman in his hand as he charged at Long Chen.

Those who recognized it cried, “A Fire Beast Soul Talisman!”

The Fire Beast Soul Talisman was a rare and valuable talisman. Only a high-level talisman priest could make one, and it required many rare materials. The most important ingredient was a Divine-tier demonic beast’s beast soul!

Even a Fire Beast Soul Talisman made of a Category One Divine-tier beast was very destructive. A demonic or feral beast’s beast soul was not easy to find. One beast soul could usually make over ten Category One Divine-tier Fire Beast Soul Talismans. Every talisman contained power equivalent to an Eighth Heavenly Martial Stage cultivator’s attack.

Song Yuchun was currently using a talisman made from a fire-type demonic or feral beast, so it was known as a Fire Beast Soul Talisman.

After Song Yuchun threw the talisman out, a fireball shot out of the tiny talisman. In a short time, the fireball exploded and the fierce flames transformed into a ferocious beast with four claws. With flames wrapped around its body, it charged at Long Chen.

Roar!

Furious roars rang out.

Long Chen could never dodge such a powerful talisman’s attack.

Everyone present was shocked at the talisman. This attack far surpassed Long Chen’s Emperor’s Manual. Long Chen had already used Emperor’s Arrival once. This showed that Song Yuchun intended to kill him.

Once Long Chen died, could Qin Xiong stop Song Yuchun from joining the Underworld Army?

He would achieve his goal and kill Long Chen at the same time. Although the price was a Fire Beast Soul Talisman, it was worth it.

What expression would he make if he knew that Long Chen had received a Shield Talisman?

Ye Xuan is making a mountain out of a molehill. This is just an Eighth Heavenly Martial Stage attack, but he gave me a Shield Talisman strong enough to block a First Divine Martial Stage attack.

In the face of the talisman’s attack, Long Chen appeared to be much calmer than the other people.

They thought Long Chen was done for.

Song Yuchun was not a talisman priest, so if he used a talisman to defeat Long Chen, it was considered a shameful tactic that would never make him trustworthy in other people’s eyes.

However, to the crowd’s astonishment, Long Chen charged ahead instead of retreating.
