89: At a disadvantage?
Hearing such a comment, Huan Shen chuckled, "Wang Ruzhu, can you only see this much?"
Wang Ruzhu immediately bowed to Huan Shen and respectfully said, "Lord Huan Shen, what I just said was merely my humble opinion. However, I still stand by what I saw. The strength disparity between the two in the arena is too great. After several exchanges, Lu Ze is already at a disadvantage, yet his intentions are still impure. I'm afraid he has no room to counter."
"Is that so?"
Huan Shen lowered his eyes, observing the changes in the stars and thunder around the two.
Lu Ze's methods continuously adjusted his position, as if waiting for something.
Huan Shen's eyes suddenly began to spin. From his perspective, everything in the arena became still. Then, both Lu Ze's and Wang Jun's bodies, at his command, began to move continuously within the arena, and their respective methods were also unleashed!
In an instant, the victor was decided.
Afterward, the two returned to their original positions, began to move again, unleashed their methods, and the victor was decided once more!
In just a brief moment, Huan Shen's eyes stopped spinning, and in that same instant, Lu Ze and Wang Jun had clashed dozens of times!
Huan Shen seemed to understand what Lu Ze was trying to do.
But... was it possible?
Due, who was nearby, had also heard of Huan Shen's methods and immediately leaned in, "Lord Huan Shen, I wonder what you just..."
His words were unfinished, but the meaning was clear. He was asking what result Huan Shen had obtained after unleashing his Divine Ability.
"I deduced it fifty-seven times; Lu Ze won once."
As soon as Huan Shen's words fell, Due praised him with a smiling face, "I knew this kid definitely had profound methods and wouldn't fall behind against Wang Jun..."
At this point, Due's expression changed, "Wait, he only won once?! Did you deduce it incorrectly?!"
Huan Shen looked sideways, his brows tightly furrowed, his black and white pupils looking somewhat eerie at this moment!
"My deduction cannot be wrong!"
Huan Shen's expression was firm, "Lu Ze indeed only won once, and it was a very strange victory. One could say it was almost impossible."
Wang Ruzhu, who was nearby, also nodded, "In this situation, if he truly won, I'm afraid Xuanyuan City can start writing the report recommending Lu Ze to the headquarters."
While the three chatted in mid-air, Lu Ze and Wang Jun below were still in a confrontation of Spiritual Qi!
Wang Jun was not in a hurry to crush Lu Ze all at once. Instead, he noticed that as long as his Spiritual Qi continued to rise, Lu Ze's Spiritual Qi would also ascend another level!
If this continued, Lu Ze would exhaust his Spiritual Qi and die before he even had to make a move!
Wang Jun lowered his eyes and saw blood seeping from the tiger's mouth of Lu Ze's hands, which were tightly gripping his sword.
This was caused by being unable to withstand the impact of Wang Jun's Spiritual Qi.
"Heh, Lu Ze, why are you so stubborn? You wouldn't actually think that if you just keep holding on, you can win, would you? This young master tells you, a good-for-nothing like you, even if you cultivate for another hundred years, you still won't catch up to this young master!"
As Wang Jun's voice fell, Lu Ze suddenly looked up. There was no trace of fatigue in his eyes Due to the excessive consumption of Spiritual Qi; in fact, his Battle Intent was in full swing!
"Wang Jun, time's up. Now, the offense and defense have switched."
Lu Ze suddenly uttered such a sentence, and Wang Jun was a little stunned.
Only to see!
A never-before-seen rune suddenly appeared in the palms of Lu Ze's hands. The rune instantly dimmed, and along with it, Lu Ze's figure also suddenly disappeared!
"What?"
Wang Jun's powerful Spiritual Pressure lost its target and instantly dissipated!
"Whoosh!"
A muffled sound suddenly came from Wang Jun's left side.
He subconsciously looked to the left and saw Lu Ze's figure had suddenly appeared on his left at some point, his sword slashing horizontally, directly at his face!
Wang Jun subconsciously wanted to retreat and dodge, but Lu Ze's voice followed, "Wang Jun, are you going to retreat?"
Retreat?
He couldn't retreat!
Wang Jun's heart instantly settled. If he retreated, the third round of the competition would be over!
Lu Ze and his companions would win!
"Retreat? The word 'retreat' isn't in this young master's dictionary!"
Wang Jun's Spiritual Qi surged in an instant, his long sword gripped tightly, and with an overwhelming force, he pressed towards Lu Ze!
Just as the immense force was about to hit Lu Ze, Lu Ze's figure disappeared again!
Wang Jun suddenly felt a flash of white before his eyes, and then his heart was abruptly startled!
He saw that behind Lu Ze, there were actually thousands of hidden thunderbolts. When Lu Ze disappeared, those thunderbolts all erupted at that instant, striking towards him!
Wang Jun wanted to retreat, but if he took a step back, he would lose!
Left with no choice, Wang Jun's long sword burst forth, Sword Qi swirling and coiling in front, shattering all the thousands of thunderbolts!
But before he could even catch his breath, dozens of stars beside him had already dimmed, and Saber Qi suddenly arrived, striking to kill!
The Scarlet Flame Seal also rose in front of him, pressing closer!
In a single breath, the latent thunder had already mobilized more thunderbolts, heading directly for Wang Jun's front!
Being pressed from all sides, Wang Jun's heart was filled with anger!
He was a Minor Realm higher than Lu Ze, yet he was forced into this situation by the opponent?!
"Lu Ze, I want you dead!"
Wang Jun swept his eyebrows, locking onto Lu Ze's standing position. His aura sank, and with a surge of Spiritual Qi under his feet, he directly soared into the sky, avoiding the encirclement from all sides!
"Useless, this young master isn't playing with you anymore. This young master will now show you what absolute crushing means!"
The Spiritual Pressure belonging to Fourth Grade Lesser Completion suddenly appeared throughout the entire arena!
Even though Spiritual Pressure was not something a Fourth Grade person could typically unleash, Wang Jun had suppressed his cultivation, not restricted his methods.
For him, Spiritual Pressure could still be unleashed, only the oppressive degree was very small, merely the power of Fourth Grade Lesser Completion!
But for Lu Ze, who was only just at Fourth Grade in the arena, it was already sufficient!
Pure cultivation suppression was enough to shackle Lu Ze's movements, making it difficult for him to use that mysterious disappearing method from before!
It also made it easier for Wang Jun to pinpoint Lu Ze's location!
"Lu Ze, this sword strike will seal your fate!"
"Rumble!—"
Above the sky, muffled thunder suddenly rose!
Countless Spiritual Qi swirled across the plaza, sweeping towards one spot, converging into a giant Spiritual Qi sword!
The great sword condensed above Lu Ze, and the power of the Spiritual sword, combined with the power of the Spiritual Pressure, was all concentrated on Lu Ze alone!
Lu Ze was pressed down, his body sinking slightly, and the ground around Lu Ze began to buckle under such pressure, starting to indent!
Wang Jun's eyes were full of smiles. He shifted his gaze and noticed Fu Liang had circled to his side, his long spear tightly gripped, poised and ready.
However, the power of Spiritual Pressure was also poured onto Fu Liang, who was also pressed down, his back slightly bent. He exerted all his Spiritual Qi just to stand firm in the arena!
"It's useless. You've lost, and Lu Ze, you, come and try this sword!"
Wang Jun spoke indifferently, as if he were a god casually deciding the fates of others!
