Chapter 431: Chapter 413: An Unfavored Battle

In the VIP spectator stands,

The powerful figures watched the battle with rapt attention, each possessing astonishing sensory abilities.

They could clearly perceive every single move Chu Yu and Lin Qi made.

Wang Yunpeng, a middle-aged man in a blue robe, watched the fierce battle in the arena and couldn’t help but nod.

”Lin Qi really is the stronger one!”

”It’s no surprise Sea Dragon lost to him!”

”To be able to fight an SSS-level Talent like Chu Yu and hold his own is quite an achievement.”

A powerful expert from the military sitting nearby also chimed in with praise.

”I know Chu Yu. His Talent is exceptional. He’s idolized Emperor Red since he was a child, and on top of that, he Awakened the Special Ability, [Crimson Flame].”

”Everything he has learned is modeled after Emperor Red!”

”His Source Energy Skill is the *Red Flame Bird Evolution Technique*.”

”The Saber Technique Secret Manual he studies is also a simplified version of Emperor Red’s Ultimate Skill—the *Blazing Saber Technique*.”

”This Saber Technique focuses on overwhelming opponents with sheer momentum. Its movements are grand and sweeping, its Techniques sharp and domineering, like a wildfire sweeping across the plains.”

”It can be summed up with a simple phrase: fierce and domineering, aggressive as fire!”

”Once he masters the Flame Realm, his techniques are empowered by the might of a blazing sun, drastically increasing his saber’s explosive power and destructive force.”

”Chu Yu always crushes his opponents head-on.”

”His strength surpasses even that of many Martial Artists with Innate Divine Strength.”

”He wanted to become Emperor Red’s disciple, but unfortunately, Emperor Red had no time, so Red King is teaching him instead.”

”Lin Qi is by no means weak, but it will be incredibly difficult for him to win.”

”If this keeps up, Chu Yu will only get stronger. He’s the type who grows more formidable the longer he fights.”

At this, Xue Zhou, who had a carefree air about him, shook his head.

”Nothing is ever certain. There are no absolutes.”

”The fact that Lin Qi is fighting Chu Yu on even footing shows that the gap between them isn’t large.”

”That in itself is astonishing.”

”So, deciding a winner won’t be easy.”

”Both are giving it their all, holding nothing back!”

”Any small change could decide the outcome of the entire match!”

”We should just watch the fight!”

As a voice spoke up, the others turned to look. Unbeknownst to them, a handsome, straight-backed man in black clothes had come online.

”Old Mu, you’re just in time.”

”You almost missed your disciple’s spectacular fight!” Dean Liu said with a smile.

Mu Hong nodded, his weathered face watching the battle in the arena intently.

He had just returned from the battlefield and couldn’t wait to log on and watch Lin Qi’s match.

...

”BANG! BANG! BOOM!!”

The arena was a total wreck. Lin Qi and Chu Yu had clashed for several rounds, and the force of their blows was only growing stronger.

Energy swirled around them, colliding countless times.

”BOOM!”

A nearby derelict black armored car was sliced in two by a saber strike, then engulfed in a fiery explosion.

A ruined lighthouse was blasted through by the golden light of Lin Qi’s spear, and the several-meter-tall structure collapsed with a roar.

Before any dust could rise, it was scattered by the Crimson Flame and the Sharpness.

”BOOM! BOOM!!”

The concrete beneath their feet continuously shattered, sinking until the ground level had dropped by half a meter.

In the stands, the sophomores all sucked in a sharp breath of cold air.

Wan Ming couldn’t help but exclaim,

”This is a battle of gods. Their power is just too terrifying.”

”If I went up there, I probably couldn’t even take a single one of their techniques!”

Yu Zhuoran spoke with a grave expression,

”It’s not just you. Even the seniors wouldn’t be able to withstand a single blow from them.”

Not far away, Du Shanyan was also watching the match with intense focus.

Her brow was furrowed as she watched.

She was realizing that both Chu Yu and Lin Qi seemed to be stronger than her.

’If I went up against either of them, I probably couldn’t win.’

’She had a feeling Chu Yu was stronger than her.’

’But for Lin Qi to be this strong as well... that she found baffling.’

’How did he do it?’

Many others shared her confusion.

Meanwhile, the battle in the arena had reached its climax.

”BOOM!!”

The red Crimson Flame and the Golden Sharpness collided. Amidst the storm of energy, Lin Qi and Chu Yu were once again forced back.

”THUD! THUD!!”

Lin Qi retreated several steps, his eyes meeting Chu Yu’s.

Their auras erupted once more as both of them activated their Little Divine Powers at the same time.

The Crimson Flame on Chu Yu’s body blazed intensely. The red patterns on his skin deepened as a terrifying power burst forth from him.

The Little Divine Power he had mastered was [Lava Transformation], created by the Eighth Realm Calamity Beast, the Molten Rock Sparrow.

It was as if a super-engine had roared to life, sending lava-like power coursing through every part of his body.

Feeling the endless wellspring of power within him, his confidence soared.

Although he had mastered this Little Divine Power, he hadn’t used it many times.

Every time he did, his strength would increase explosively.

Now, for instance, the space around his body seemed to twist as if being incinerated, and the temperature skyrocketed toward thousands of degrees.

It was hot enough to melt steel into a liquid.

At the same time, Lin Qi also activated his Little Divine Power, [Vajra Transformation].

The golden patterns on his body seemed to come alive, swimming across his skin. His aura erupted, his muscles bulged, and his frame grew more robust.

The Golden Sharpness around his body instantly solidified, becoming tangible and sharp-edged, like countless real, gleaming Sharp Blades.

”THUMP-THUMP.”

Lin Qi felt his heart thumping powerfully like a great drum, his blood pumping through his veins with the force of muffled thunder.

His body surged with power, his Combat Power soaring. The intense amplification made him feel as if he could shatter the very space around him.

Every strand of Golden Sharpness in the vicinity was under his complete control.

He looked at Chu Yu, forced to admit that his opponent was truly formidable.

He was the only genius Lin Qi had encountered in the past two years, since starting university, who could fight him on equal footing.

Victor couldn’t even begin to compare.

’To exchange dozens of techniques with me without falling behind... he’s impressive, alright.’

’But this battle has gone on long enough. It’s time to end it.’

Chu Yu’s eyes widened. He brandished his flame-wreathed Battle Saber and shouted in excitement,

”Lin Qi, this match is over!”

”Die!”

With that, he shot forward like a wave of fire, releasing a terrifying pressure.

Seeing this, Lin Qi channeled Golden Sharpness through the golden Big Gun in his hand.

”I agree, it’s over!”

He swung the Big Gun, gathering the countless strands of Golden Sharpness around him and forming them into a Giant Blade that he slashed forward!

Having activated their Little Divine Powers, both of them intended to end the battle in a single move and utterly destroy their opponent!

This was especially true for Chu Yu. Although he could erupt with greater Combat Power for a short period,

his Special Ability, [Crimson Flame], granted him unparalleled explosive power and destructive force.

But the stamina drain was also astonishingly high.

This was his weakness.

He couldn’t maintain his Little Divine Power for long. If he didn’t end the fight soon, he would lose.

He himself didn’t even realize that he was starting to get desperate.

But Lin Qi saw right through him.

’And as it happened, he wanted to end this fight quickly, too!’
