Peerless Martial God - Chapter 644: A Blood Like Sword
Lin Feng sighed again when he heard Qing Meng Xin. It was a good thing that he had obtained the first jade key.
Qing Meng Xin had obtained the eleventh jade key so she would end up fighting against the strongest geniuses of the competition. Indeed, the first one to choose was Lin Feng, and the second one was Tang You You. So the eight strongest geniuses would probably challenge her and she would probably get eliminated.
After one hour, the battles were about to start again.
Xue Wu Chang looked at those sixteen geniuses, their pupils were all twinkling. The real battles were about to start for real.
Xue Wu Chang looked at those eight people and announced, “The sixteen last people won’t be eliminated easily, the rules will change. We want a precise ranking list in the end.”
“Huh?” The crowd wasn’t ready, the rules were going to change?
Indeed, they needed a precise ranking in the end for the competition to be fair…
“It seems like things won’t be as sad as I thought for myself.” said Qing Meng Xin who was lying on Lin Feng’s legs, smiling in a seducing way. Lin Feng was a bit surprised when he said, “You already knew that it was going to end up like this, right?”
Qing Meng Xin looked at him and smiled, “Every round is like this, how could the last sixteen cultivators get eliminated that easily without any rule? What about the eight last ones? And four last ones? Only morons like you cannot understand such things.”
“Ehhh…..” Lin Feng scratched his head, she was making fun of him and he didn’t know what to say.
But Qing Meng Xin was right, would people get eliminated endlessly? That didn’t sound credible.
“Alright. You need to understand the rules now.” said Xue Wu Chang. “First, those who have the best jade keys can take the initiative, just as before. But this time, if you choose someone and lose the battle, you must give it to your opponent and you’ll obtain the very last one.”
“Ehhh..” Lin Feng was smiling wryly. He had obtained the first jade key but if he lost he would end up last… And everybody else would raise up in the rankings. Lin Feng had no choice, he had to win every match-up.
“After the eighth battle your jade keys will have new numbers, but those numbers won’t be your final ranking. I will bring you to another place where you will have wonderful opportunities, if you are talented enough, your cultivation level will increase. “
“As expected, some more opportunities..” thought the crowd shakily. They looked full of hope. This time, they would have some great opportunities again, Xue Wu Chang would bring them to a place where they could increase their cultivation level.”
Lin Feng’s eyes were twinkling, he would always keep in mind Xue Wu Chang’s words. He couldn’t waste the first jade key because it would mean even more at that moment.
Keeping the first jade key would guarantee him the best treasures… The treasures were probably different depending on which key you possessed. The first one was probably the best one. Keeping the first key wouldn’t be impossible, but it would be difficult.
But now, he had to do it.
“After coming back from this special place with your treasures, everybody will have to fight again. Then, we will see who the strongest ones really are. I will tell you the new rules then and afterwards we will know the precise ranking of the sixteen winners of the Great Competition of Xue Yu.” finished Xue Wu Chang. He then looked at everyone again and said, “Do you understand?”
The crowd nodded, Xue Wu Chang’s explanation was easy enough to understand.
“Alright. Let’s continue the fights then. Don’t forget to protect your keys.” it seemed like Xue Wu Chang was looking at Lin Feng specifically when saying this. Lin Feng was serious and solemn now. That battle was going to be decisive for him. If he lost, he would miss a great opportunity and would miss incredible treasures. If he lost, he would obtain the sixteenth key, the very last one…
He couldn’t lose…
Lin Feng jumped in the middle of the fighting stage and looked at the other fighters. He had to choose one person out of those fifteen.
They were staring back at Lin Feng, they were all hoping that Lin Feng would choose them. They all considered him as the weakest cultivator of the group.
Finally, Lin Feng looked at the fifteenth person. That fifteenth person had ranked sixteenth and during the last series of battles he relied on some simple agility techniques to win.
“You.” said Lin Feng. That person looked a bit tense but immediately smiled. Fighting against Lin Feng was the best thing that could happen to him.
He then jumped forwards like a swallow and landed in front of Lin Feng.
“Thank you.” he gestured towards Lin Feng. He was thanking Lin Feng for having chosen him.
“Are you sure that you want to thank me?” asked Lin Feng indifferently.
That person nodded and said, “I saw you fight, even though your golden Buddha body is a strong attack. And even though you can defeat cultivators of the seventh Xuan Qi layer, you are extremely slow. I can do whatever I want with you, I can’t understand why you chose me.”
“You think that you will win and thus thanked me, right?” asked Lin Feng.
“Indeed. Thank you for choosing me. I will cripple your cultivation.” said that person, leaving Lin Feng speechless.
“I choose you so you and you thank me jokingly. Now you plan to win and cripple my cultivation, eh? But I’m also saving you from getting humiliated, it means that if anyone else chose you, you’d have absolutely no chance.” said Lin Feng. The other nodded and said, “You’re smart but you did something stupid too.”
“Alright. Since you’re so confident, I will give you a chance now. We will see if you can thank me again after the battle.” said Lin Feng, slowly raising his hand and grabbing the sword on his back.
The crowd was stupefied. Apart from his Buddha attacks, Lin Feng also used swords?
A metallic sound spread in the air when Lin Feng unsheathed his sword. That sword was red like blood and particularly dazzling.
On that sword there was blood and sword energy.
“Huh?” The crowd was astonished, since when could Lin Feng use a sword?
A terrifying sword energy then emerged out of his body and emitted whistling sounds. In a flash, Lin Feng was surrounded by a sword light.
“So I’m too slow when I use my golden body? Did you wonder if I could use anything else?” said Lin Feng indifferently. Immediately after, a terrifying sword energy started rolling out of his sword and into the air. That person was astonished.
What a terrifying blood sword… That Qi was really frightening.
“You made me use this sword.” said Lin Feng. Then he jumped forwards and threw himself at his enemy. It seemed like his terrifying sword energy was about to lacerate the enemy.
That person then started moving incredibly fast.
“I don’t think that your sword is faster than my agility techniques.” said the person coldly. Lin Feng then rose up in the air as well. He was surrounded by sword energy and sword intent.
“Die!” The sword intent and blood energy fused together, that person only saw a terrifying light. The enemy wanted to dodge but it seemed impossible. He lowered his head and saw some blood dripping.
“Your agility technique is fast but I am faster.” said Lin Feng, that person’s heart pounded violently.
