Chapter 422: Battle!

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

Under everyone’s gaze, Su Han walked into the arena and to Hao Ren’s side.

The three-clawed golden dragon embroideries on her silver robe meant that she was a level 3 inspector.

The audience still remembered her confrontation with the main examiner and her suppression over him.

“This Ren Yin cultivator is her assisting inspector…”

“She’s a super beauty…”

Seeing Su Han’s sudden appearance on the arena, the cultivators who were watching began talking amongst themselves.

“Su Han! This is a combat exam. What are you doing up there?!” Qin Shaoyang couldn’t bear it anymore and stood up from his chair.

He felt disgraced when the people from the West Ocean Dragon Clan appeared suddenly and interrupted this combat exam. Now by going into the arena without asking for his permission, Su Han was challenging his authority!

Ignoring him, Su Han grabbed Hao Ren’s arm and sent a strong surge of nature essence into his body, forcing out a series of colorful circles from the top of his head.

The five colored circles, representing metal, wood, water, fire, and earth.

“Five… Five Mountains Bracelets?” an elder from a clan exclaimed.

“Five Mountains Bracelets… Those are Five Mountains Bracelets that are used by inspectors…” The topic turned from Su Han to the Five Mountains Bracelets.

Some low-leveled young cultivators didn’t know about the Five Mountains Bracelets, but the elders all knew that these were top-tier dharma treasures used to restrict a cultivator’s nature essence.

“It means that this Gen-level cultivator had been competing while wearing the Five Mountains Bracelets!” At this thought, the elders from many forces looked astonished.

On the viewing area, Qin Shaoyang was also surprised, and the deputy examiners by his side looked at each other in shock as well. After all, during the combat exams, every cultivator tried to use 120% of their true force, but Hao Ren had been competing while wearing Five Mountains Bracelets!

Standing opposite to Hao Ren, Zhao Kuo was also a little surprised. With his experience, he was very familiar with the function of the Five Mountains Bracelets.

He thought what Hao Ren showcased was his real strength and was surprised that Hao Ren made it so far with greatly restricted strength!

“Due to some small wrong-doings, I put a set of Five Mountains Bracelets on him as a punishment. Is there a problem?” Su Han looked up at the seven examiners and asked in a loud voice.

The six deputy examiners shook their heads while Qin Shaoyang remained silent with a gloomy expression.

It was quite common for official inspectors to punish their assisting inspectors. Although the Five Mountains Bracelets were usually used to lock up criminals, no rules said that they couldn’t be used on assisting inspectors.

Besides, from her behavior yesterday alone, Su Han was rather protective of her assisting inspector.

After the Five Mountains Bracelets were removed, Hao Ren felt lighter as remainder 60% of his cultivation strength returned abruptly!

The array formation that locked up his strength disappeared, and Hao Ren found that he could circulate his nature essence a lot smoother than before!

With the Five Mountains Bracelets in her hand, Su Han lightly got out of the arena.

She chose this moment to remove the Five Mountains Bracelets because she thought Hao Ren could unleash his full strength in this fight.

While the Five Mountains Bracelets restricted Hao Ren’s nature essence, it also protected him. The bracelets restricted 60% of his nature essence from going out, and it stopped 60% of the inflow of others’ nature essence at the same time.

Therefore, when he encountered strong opponents, the Five Mountains Bracelets acted as an armor protecting his important meridians from being shattered by his opponents’ nature essences. That was why Su Han didn’t remove the Five Mountains Bracelets when he was competing with Wang Xi.

At this moment, Wang Xi was the one who was the most astonished outside of the arena.

After losing the match yesterday, he didn’t leave the Dragon God Shrine. Instead, he stayed the night in the outer city and just wanted to watch Hao Ren’s pathetic failure today.

However, when he saw Su Han removing the Five Mountains Bracelets from Hao Ren, he was stunned by the realization that Hao Ren didn’t unleash his full strength in the battle with him!

Likewise, Lu Qi in the audience was also stunned at this sight. He thought he was just one step away from defeating Hao Ren, but the fact was that Hao Ren’s Gen-level power far surpassed his Dui-level strength somehow!

After the removal of the Five Mountains Bracelets, Hao Ren swung his arms and cupped his hands at Zhao Kuo again. “Third Uncle, please!”

“Humph!” Zhao Kuo snorted. “If you admit defeat now, I’ll let you go.”

Looking at Zhao Kuo calmly, Hao Ren said, “Third Uncle, if you are brave enough, fight me.”

Hearing his words, Zhao Kuo’s eyes widened.

Boom! Hao Ren abruptly released his aura, and the debris around the arena spread outward.

After two fierce battles, only eight of the 24 small arenas were left, and the grand arena Hao Ren and Zhao Kuo stood on was also severely damaged.

According to the rules for the combat exams, anyone who fell to the ground would lose the match. Since 16 small arenas were in ruins now, Zhao Kuo and Hao Ren would have less space to maneuver and thus increasing the difficulty of the battle.

If they both fell to the ground at the same time, they would lose together and be disqualified from further competitions.

This was the result Qin Shaoyang hoped to see.

“Then… Don’t expect mercy from me!” Glaring at Hao Ren, Zhao Kuo released the 720 sword energies from his arms.

“Good!” With a shout, Hao Ren’s 320 sword energies shot out from his back.

One was like a thousand-arm buddha while the other looked like a peacock that was spreading feathers. Each shot out hundreds of sword energies into the air, and the dancing sword energies presented people an impressive sight.

The unknown Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll would probably become famous from now on!

However, this technique was now placed on the top level of the Profound Cultivation Palace as the purple-grade technique of the East Ocean Dragon Palace, and only Zhao Kuo and Hao Ren were cultivating this technique!

Standing by the arena, Xie Yujia turned to look at the wood-elemental cultivator who just lost the match. He lied on the ground motionlessly, and the elders from his clan tried their best to save him. In the end, they shook their heads helplessly.

A wood-elemental female cultivator took the Xun-level cultivator in her arms and cried.

However, most of the cultivators were focused on the imminent battle between Hao Ren and Zhao Kuo.

After all, winners would take all while losers could get no attention.

“Well…” Xie Yujia signed sadly and took out a small red box. After placing it into Little White’s mouth, she said to it, “Deliver it over there.”

Little White blinked and understood her instruction. It got Zhen Congming off its back and flew toward the wood-elemental cultivator.

The sorrow elders saw Little White toss a small red box at their feet, and they picked it up.

“Life Fortune Pill!” The elder who opened the box exclaimed.

Life Fortune Pills were made from combining level 4 Detox Elixir Pills, level 4 Foundation Establishment Elixir Pills, level 4 Essence Replenishment Elixir Pills, level 4 Realm Elevation Elixir Pills, and level 4 Empowerment Elixir Pills.

Right now, even level 4 pills were scarce, not to mention the Life Fortune Pill which required five kinds of level 4 pills!

As the name ‘Life Fortune Pill’ indicates, this pill could turn the dying back to life. As long as the cultivator still had one breath left in his or her body, the pill could restore the vitality.

With five-colored light beams underneath its paws, Little White returned to Xie Yujia and wriggled its tail, signaling that it had done the errand.

Xie Yujia rubbed its head and gave it a light smile.

In order to make this one pill, she practiced a lot and wasted half an elixir furnace of level 4 pills. She planned to save it for Hao Ren, but she was soft-hearted. After hearing that woman cry so miserably beside the dying wood-elemental cultivator, she felt very sympathetic…

Bang! Bang… In the arena, Hao Ren and Zhao Kuo had begun hitting each other with sword energies.

The 320 sword energies and the 720 sword energies were way to flashy in the air, and it made people dizzy. Only Hao Ren and Zhao Kuo could tell the sword energies apart.

While the battle went on, the sword energies got closer and closer… Bang!

Hao Ren and Zhao Kuo both flew 100 meters out and landed on the Li Chun Arena and Li Qiu Arena respectively.

Crack! Crack… Some sword energies burst like bubbles!

Hao Ren smiled as he stood on Li Chun Arena,

“Kid… You are good,” Zhao Kuo steadied his body and said to Hao Ren across from the grand arena between them.

Among his 720 sword energies, 80 were just shadows without any nature essence, and Hao Ren discovered this weakness during the battle and broken them one by one!

Hum! Hum!

The 640 sword energies surrounding Zhao Kuo lined up in neat square groups and blinked.

“Third Uncle, you are good, too,” Hao Ren said politely.

The reason he discovered the 80 sword shadows was that he also cultivated the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll, and he knew that the number of the sword energies would only double, which meant that after 320 sword energies were 640, not 720.

“It was just a warm-up. Now, let’s start the fight!” Zhao Kuo opened his arms and lightly bent his knees, getting ready for battle.

His sword energies hummed like bees, encircling his body.

“Hehe! Same here!” Hao Ren pointed his right hand forward, and his 320 sword energies turned around, pointing their tips toward Zhao Kuo.

Suddenly, Zhao Kuo leaped 100 meters into the air!

Exerting strength through his legs, Hao Ren jumped up as well!

The sword energies collided with one another while Hao Ren and Zhao Kuo’s fists crashed in the air!

Bang!

The violent aura left a crack in the big arena!

The fundamental boxing techniques of the East Ocean Dragon Palace!
