Chapter 3516: Six Star God of War
Zhong Gui Yu felt humiliated when he heard the remarks in the surroundings. However, he eventually decided to withdraw from the fight. “I surrender.”
Many people looked down on Zhong Gui Yu for surrendering, but he paid no mind to those people. Instead, he said to Duan Ling Tian solemnly, “Duan Ling Tian, you’re even more remarkable than my Senior Sister had described. However, I believe I’ll catch up to you in the future! I’m a few centuries behind you now, but it doesn’t mean I won’t be able to catch up to you.”
“I’ll be waiting for that day,” Duan Ling Tian said with a faint smile before leaving the battle ring.
Although the crowd was disappointed that there was no fight to watch, their excitement was soon roused again. This was because it was finally the time for Tang San Pao, who was ranked 5th, to challenge someone. He was initially ranked 2nd. However, after Huang Quan An, Ling Jue Yun, and Duan Ling Tian won their matches, he was pushed to fifth place.
At this time, the top ten participants of the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses were as follow:
Ling Jue Yun
Huang Quan An
Duan Ling Tian
Zhong Gui Yu
Tang San Pao
Sima Rui
Ye Dong Li
Hong Yuan
Liu Xu Yan
Yu Dong Fang
“After Tang San Pao finishes with his match, this bout will end soon. Although Zhong Gui Yu still has a chance to challenge an opponent, I doubt he’ll do so since those ranked above him are stronger than him…”
Many people agreed with these words.
“Since Zhong Gui Yu and Duan Ling Tian’s match has just ended, although they didn’t fight, both of them can’t be challenged during this round.”
“That’s right. This means Tang San Pao can only challenge Huang Quan An or Ling Jue Yun. Who do you think he’ll challenge?”
“He seems to have a good relationship with Ling Jue Yun as well so he might challenge Huang Quan An. Huang Quan An’s law of time is formidable. Unless one’s as strong as a Six Star God of War or if one possesses a special technique like Ling Jue Yun that could render the law of time useless, it’d be difficult to defeat him. However, Tang San Pao has shown the strength of a Six Star God of War earlier…”
Everyone stared as Tang San Pao flew into the battle ring. He had just killed Zhoup Yong Qi, the true disciple of the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Prosperous Heaven, and even caused the death of the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Prosperous Heaven. After all, it had been revealed he was the successor of the Temple Master of the main Title Temple.
Tang San Pao’s eyes glinted as he looked at the participants. “I want to challenge…”
The crowd was sitting on the edge of the seats waiting for Tang San Pao’s decision.
“Huang Quan An,” Tang San Pao said.
Tang San Pao looked at Ling Jue Yun meaningfully after he challenged Ling Jue Yun. He said, “Ling Jue Yun, I didn’t challenge you not because I’m afraid. I just fell our battle should be left at the end…”
“Alright.” Ling Jue Yun’s expression remained unchanged.
Back in the battle ring.
Huang Quan An’s expression was solemn as he stood across from Tang San Pao. Based on Tang San Pao’s previous match, it was highly likely Tang San Pao was as strong as a Six Star God of War. If that was really the truth, he knew he would not stand a chance in winning the match. Moreover, his true strength was weaker than a top Five Star God of War. He only had an advantage due to the law of time’s Instant Vicissitudes of Life.
Tang San Pao who was standing across from Huang Quan An said tonelessly, “I’ll give you three chances to use the Instant Vicissitudes of Life…”
The crowd who heard these words began to discuss among themselves again.
“Although I know this is likely, to hear him say those words, we can finally confirm he’s as strong as a Six Star God of War! Otherwise, he won’t dare to say such words. No wonder he’s the successor of the Temple Master of the main Title Temple!”
“Just watch. We’ll see soon enough. Moreover, Huang Quan An isn’t an easy target as well. He should be able to push Tang San Pao to use his full strength…”
Back in the battle ring.
Huang Quan An attacked Tang San Pao immediately with the Instant Vicissitudes Of Life, but Tang San Pao had easily deflected it.
Tang San Pao only stood at his spot and waved his hand leisurely, neutralizing Huang Quan An’s attack with his soul energy that had been imbued with the profundities from the law he comprehended.
“Stop!”
Upon seeing this, Huang Quan An changed his strategy. He used a profundity to freeze Tang San Pao before using the Instant Vicissitudes of Life.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Alas, before the two beams of light could enter Tang San Pao’s body, they were stopped by Tang San Pao again.
“You’re not affected by the law of time?” Huang Quan An’s eyes widened in horror. “So you truly possess the strength of a Six Star God of War! Otherwise, you won’t be able to remain unaffected by my law of time!”
Tang San Pao did not stop Huang Quan An’s attack with any ostentatious technique, but the fact that he was not frozen by the law of time was much more impressive. After all, only Six Star Gods of War was capable of such a feat.
With this display, no one doubted anymore that Tang San Pao was truly as strong as a Six Star God of War.
“So he really has the strength of a Six Star God of War. Although we all knew this after his previous match, this undeniable confirmation still shocks me”
“Heavens! We really have a participant as strong as a Six Star God of War in the Battle of the Geniuses this time!”
“This time’s Battle of the Geniuses will definitely be recorded in the books!”
The crowd went wild when Tang San Pao finally confirmed he was indeed as strong as a Six Star God of War.
Meanwhile, the Heavenly Emperors and the high-ranking officials from the Title Temple branches were also slightly surprised even if they had been mentally prepared after watching Tang San Pao’s previous match. However, what shocked them the most was this participant who was as strong as a Six Star God of War and was not even 1,000 years old, belonged to the Title Temple.
“As expected as the successor of the Temple Master of the main Title Temple. Even the current Title Temple only had the strength of a Five Star God of War at this age…”
“As long as he can maintain this cultivation speed, he would definitely grow stronger than the current Temple Master.”
How could someone who was not even 1,000 years old but possessed the strength of a Six Star God of War not be selected as the successor of the main Title Temple? If he was not qualified, then no one would be qualified.
“I surrender,” Huang Quan An said decisively once he confirmed that Tang San Pao was as strong as a Six Star God of War.
“So he’s really as strong as a Six Star God of War…” Su Li said with a sigh, “It’s truly impressive…”
On the other hand, Zhang Tian You, Wang Ting, and He Jian Yi seated behind were dumbstruck. They did not imagine the goofy person who like to joke around with them was someone who possessed the strength of a Six Star God of War before reaching 1,000 years old. Moreover, he was also the successor of the Temple Master of the main Title Temple! His background alone was higher than any of the true disciples of the Heavenly Emperors or those from the heaven-grade forces.
At this time, Xu Kong Hai called out, “Zhong Gui Yu, it’s your turn.”
“I give up the right to challenge,” Zhong Hui Yu said after he rose to his feet.
No one was surprised by this outcome. After all, those ranked before him were truly powerful. In fact, most people thought he was wise.
“Alright. With that, this bout ends here, and we’ll proceed to the next bout now,” Xu Kong Hai said, “Now, we’ll start the bout with the 29th participant since there’s no one who’s ranked 30th.”
At this moment, a Heavenly Emperor suddenly interjected, “Vice Temple Master Xu, since the 30th place is empty. Is there a chance for others to fight for that spot?”
The participants who had failed to make it into the top 30 places looked at Xu Kong Hai with shiny eyes that were brimming with anticipation.
Alas, Xu Kong Hai said, “The 30th place will remain empty.”
Following that, another round of challenges started again.
Although the matches between those as strong as a Four Star God of War were intense as well, they naturally could not compare to the matches between those with strength like a Five Star God of War.
It was clear the crowd was not as interested as they were before.
Although it was difficult, Su Li managed to defend his ranking again.
It did not take long before it was Yu Dong Fang’s turn to issue a challenge again.
“Yu Dongfang, who are you challenging?” Xu Kong Hai asked.
Yu Dong Fang replied without any hesitation, “Zhong Gui Yu!”
Zhong Gui Yu was ranked at the top among those who did not have the strength of a top Five Star God of War. Yu Dong Fang chose to fight Zhong Gui Yu because he thought to replace Zhong Gui Yu. Moreover, Zhong Gui Yu was the best opponent; not only for Yu Dong Fang but also for the others who were too afraid to challenge those who were ranked above Zhong Gui Yu. Those who were ranked above Zhong Gui Yu all possessed the strength of a top Five Star God of War, and there was even one who was as strong as a Six Star God of War.
