419: Chapter 419 The True Form!!

Blue Whale's massive Dragon Whale head slowly lowered.

In his giant deep-blue eyes, the previous composure and majesty were gone, replaced by a biting, tangible killing intent.

Beside him, Whale Slaughter, who was also an Eighth-Rank Grandmaster, grit his teeth in anger.

"That trash Black Whale!"

"When Cang Hai sent the message back then, he clearly mentioned this Qin Yan! He said his talent was extremely high and he would likely become a problem for our clan in the future!"

"And the result? That idiot Black Whale only had eyes for Xiao Shan's granddaughter and looked down on this human brat, treating him as a mere 'byproduct'!"

"If he had just gotten rid of Qin Yan back then, how could there be such trouble today!"

Blue Whale didn't respond, his gaze only growing colder.

Saying all this now was meaningless.

"Blue Whale."

Xiao Shan's voice came from the human camp at the right time, still as calm as a rippleless well. "It's time to send the second contestant."

Blue Whale was silent for a breath before speaking in a low voice that echoed through the Sea Race camp: "Dragon Battle, take the stage!"

A moment later, a figure far more burly and majestic than Dragon Abyss stepped onto the Martial Arts Stage.

His physique was more than a size larger than Dragon Abyss's, and the dark blue scales covering his body gleamed with a cold, hard luster under the pearly light.

He also held a Sea Halberd, but it was larger and heavier than the one Dragon Abyss used.

Dragon Battle walked onto the arena, each step as heavy as a mountain, creating dull echoes on the crystal surface.

He looked at Qin Yan, whose aura remained indifferent and whose clothes weren't even ruffled. There wasn't a hint of contempt in his eyes; instead, they were filled with unprecedented solemnity and... a blazing battle intent!

"Dragon Battle!" He slammed the Sea Halberd onto the ground, his voice like a great bell. "Please guide me!"

"Qin Yan." Qin Yan nodded slightly, his tone flat.

Dragon Battle took a deep breath and said solemnly: "I will remember this name."

You are a... truly powerful opponent!"

Qin Yan: "..."

He did not respond, only tightening his grip on the long spear.

"Match start!"

The moment the words fell—

Dragon Battle struck first!

He knew Qin Yan's speed was incredibly fast; he couldn't give the opponent another chance to seize the initiative!

His arm muscles bulged, and the massive Sea Halberd moved as lightly as a dry twig in his hands.

On the halberd, the Qi didn't just cover the shaft; it was like living water, rotating at high speed, compressing, and taking shape around the blade!

In the blink of an eye, a deep-blue spiral water blade over ten feet long and as solid as substance formed outside the halberd's edge!

The water blade spun rapidly, its edges flashing with a sharp, cold light that could cut through anything, emitting a piercing "chi-chi" whistle!

"Vortex Tide: Abyssal Rift Slash!"

Dragon Battle roared!

He used his strongest move as soon as he stepped onto the field!

The heavy Sea Halberd, carrying the spiral water blade condensed from all his Qi and compressed to the extreme, slashed down at Qin Yan's head with the force to split a mountain!

This strike, in terms of power, speed, and Qi concentration, far surpassed any of Dragon Abyss's previous attacks!

Facing this roaring, violent blow, Qin Yan's expression remained as calm as water.

He raised his right hand, and the Ink-Marked Spear swept out unremarkably!

Indeed, there were no fancy techniques or high-level martial arts.

It was just the simplest, most basic move that any spearman would practice on their first day: Sweeping Away a Thousand Armies!

However, when this sweep incorporated his vigorous blood energy, the extreme softness and resilience of the Xuan Ming True Water Qi, and the overbearingly peerless Destructions End Spear Qi—

A crescent-shaped Spear Qi, interwoven with blue and black and seemingly capable of devouring everything, shot out from the spear tip!

"Boom—!!!"

The deep-blue spiral water blade and the blue-black Destructions End Spear Qi collided fiercely in the center of the arena!

There was no equal match!

There was no stalemate!

Qin Yan's single spear strike, containing Qi and destructive will far surpassing martial artists of the same rank, easily sliced through Dragon Battle's full-power "Vortex Tide: Abyssal Rift Slash"!

The deep-blue water blade shattered instantly, turning into blue light spots drifting across the sky!

The blue-black Spear Qi didn't lose its momentum and slammed hard into Dragon Battle's chest!

"Puff—!"

Dragon Battle's burly body was hit head-on, and he spat out a mouthful of blood!

He flew backward like a kite with a broken string!

The heavy Sea Halberd flew out of his hand, spinning in the air, and crashed heavily onto the edge of the arena along with its owner!

Dragon Battle struggled to get up, but his chest throbbed with pain, his Qi flowed backward, and his vision went black—

Finally, he let out a muffled groan, his head slumped heavily, and he fell into the same deep coma as Dragon Abyss.

Qin Yan slowly withdrew his spear, his expression calm.

He looked at Dragon Battle, who lay unconscious several dozen feet away, and shook his head slightly.

"A pity, you are not a powerful opponent."

His voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached everyone nearby.

The entire venue fell into a deathly silence once again.

Countless Sea Race warriors looked at the figure of the youth in black on the arena, their eyes filled with horror!

The silence lasted for several long breaths.

Finally, from deep within the Sea Race camp, the last figure, Dragon Soaring, was sent onto the arena.

Once he stood firm, he looked at Qin Yan, whose aura was still indifferent as if he hadn't consumed much energy after two consecutive battles. The solemnity in his eyes was almost palpable.

He knew the strength of Dragon Abyss and Dragon Battle better than anyone.

Although they weren't as strong as him, they were by no means weak.

But this human before him...

Had actually killed them both in a single blow one after another with overwhelming momentum!

This level of strength was something he couldn't achieve.

No matter what, he couldn't do it.

"But this is fine too."

He took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the trace of fear in his heart that he was unwilling to admit.

In its place was a battle intent thoroughly ignited by a powerful enemy.

"An opponent like this is worthy of my full strength!"

The next moment—

"Ang—!!!"

A Dragon Whale roar erupted from deep within his throat!

Immediately after, Dragon Soaring's slender yet burly human body began to undergo an earth-shaking transformation!

Pale blue scales sprang up like bamboo shoots after rain, frantically emerging from every inch of his skin and quickly covering his entire body;

Muscles bulged violently, his skeleton grew frantically, and the short horn on his forehead extended and thickened at a visible speed, its spiral patterns becoming deeper;

His limbs twisted into thick, powerful fins, his spine stretched, and his tailbone elongated...

In just three breaths!

The handsome and cold Dragon Soaring had disappeared, replaced by a deep-sea Dragon Whale over ten meters long, hovering above the Martial Arts Stage!

"Heavens! That's... that's the Dragon Whale True Form!"

Among the human fleet, an experienced veteran general cried out in surprise.

"He can actually switch forms so freely at the Fourth-Rank realm!

This isn't something an ordinary Dragon Whale genius can do. This... this is a racial talent that only direct descendants of a Venerable, with extremely high bloodline concentration, can master at the Fourth-Rank stage!"
