Chapter 548 – Four Consecutive Defeats

“Wen Ji, you’re up!” Yun Qinghong said after he pondered in silence for a while

“Ah… , a callow youth dressed in the attire of the Duke Palaces pointed at himself as he wore a lost and panicked look on his face

Wen Ji was the son of Duke Xu, and his talent and strength were both uncoth at the second level of the Tyrant Profound Reale of twenty-nine, he would be labelled as a botto the cre elites that were gathered here… Even a, he was still at the bottoyi had already suffered a crippling defeat at the hands of Zihuan So for the second round, it stood to reason that a person as sufficient to challenge Duke Zihuan should step up to the plate, because even if that person could not win, that person would still be able to retain sonity in defeat And if Wen Ji were to face an opponent who had coyi, he would only lose in a more spectacular fashion

“Yes Wen Ji, you’ll be the one taking the second round” Yun Qinghong turned to face him and declared with sunken brows, “The one you are about to face is indeed an opponent that is hard for you to fight, but as both of you are dukes of the Illusory Demon Royal Family, even if you lose in battle, you would have si spirit even before you have not even lost yet”

Wen Ji ground his teeth together and quickly regained his equilibriuh you and Zihuan are separated by three levels, the two of you are still both Overlords Even if he wins, he will still have to exert hiy as you can… Remember, concentrate thirty percent of your power on offense and the rest on defense and when you attack, only target his vitals when you are confident of delivering a critical strike Also, no matter what he says, you must always maintain your cool! If you can do all of the above, then this match can be counted as a win”

“I understand!” Wen Ji nodded his head vigorously and flew into the air to land inside the arena

“Duke Xu Palace’s Wen Ji, please give uidance”

“Ah, so it is Brother Wen Ji” Duke Zihuan said as he narrowed his eyes and smiled, “It really looks like your side can’t find any proper candidates, because they actually sent you out as well Ah, even I aht now”

Wen Ji, “…”

Duke Zihuan extended his finger towards him and beckoned hier, “Come, feel free to attack whenever you want Because if I can’t subdue an amateur like you in tenin this Demon Imperial City”

Any member of the Illusory Demon Royal Family were individuals exalted above all others, so they would never have faced such huhtly, he alhong’s advice There was a quick intake of breath as he sought to swiftly calm himself down, and after that, he did not speak as he planted both feet on the ground A golden spear then appeared in his hands As it pierced towards Duke Zihuan’s chest, it produced a golden afterith

“Explosive Flame Domain!!”

A deep red flaantic energy of the domain suddenly explosively swelled up like a tsuna the power of the spear as it streaked towards Duke Zihuan’s body… Scarlet flaht have been the lowest form of profound fire, but the scarlet flames used by the Illusory Demon Royal Family was the lowest forth was far superior to even the regular deep purple profound flames

“See how this duke will shatter your lousy spear!”

Duke Zihuan roared out arrogantly as he swung his Scarlet Blood Blade, instantly producing seven blood-colored blade bea heat and easily tore Wen Ji’s do air was akin to a blade being scratched over glass; it was extreolden spear that was streaking towards Zihuan suddenly slowed down and after a violent shudder, it was instantly displaced Four of Duke Zihuan’s blade beams that shot out of his Blood Blade struck empty air, but the other three clashed with the tip of Wen Ji’s spear After a chaotic and ear-piercing shattering sound, the three energy blades were completely neutralized and Wen Ji was pushed ten steps back by the ensuing impact

“Mn?” Zihuan’s eyebroitched, then let out a cold laugh His body blurred and his blade danced like a dragon as he instantly unleashed a lightning quick slash at Wen Ji

“True Fla!!

The Scarlet Blood Blade made contact with the flame vortex that suddenly materialized in front of Wen Ji, but it only took a breath for this fla of two blood-colored flashes, the flame vortex coed straight through, it s clash

A heavy ring resounded in the air and Wen Ji’s body swayed as blood leaked out from the corner of his mouth However, he stubbornly endured and did not retreat The Scarlet Blood Blade had cut half an inch into the golden spear he had infused all of hisit apart

Zihuan had arrogantly yelled that he wanted to shatter Wen Ji’s spear, but after five strikes, Wen Ji stillon… Wen Ji initially looked as if he had poured all his strength into a fierce assault, but he suddenly switched positions, avoiding Zihuan’s attacks and reverted from defense to attack as quickly as he possibly could Even though he had been injured, he had yet to retreat a single step

Zihuan’s eyes narrowed and he yelled in a low voice, “You punk, collapse!”

The flames on the Scarlet Blood Blade suddenly flashed and an enorth into this strike Wen Ji’s face paled and his body was blown backwards, but Zihuan’s blade followed after like a striking viper In a short space of ti blood-colored blade bea the second blade beaolden spear finally flew out of Wen Ji’s hand The third blade beay shielding his body and the breastplate wrapped around his chest… But after it had cut through both the profound energy and the armor, the Scarlet Blood Blade had no ed to land solidly on his feet, and underneath the broken breastplate, his chest only had one thin red line drawn across it

Wen Ji olden spear was recalled into his hand He wiped the blood from the corner of his htand only had the power to defend than attack, he had ed to solidly resist the attacks of the Zihuan as three levels stronger than hith… And especially those last three blows, they were executed using Zihuan’s full strength
