27: I won again this time.

"What! Extreme Strength!"

"This... this is Extreme Strength!"

"Heavens! This Martial Academy Genius called Lin Yi actually comprehended Extreme Strength at fourteen?"

"This, this is too much of a Prodigy!"

...Just as the two Deans on the Viewing Platform were shocked, on the surrounding stands, the well-informed dignitaries also recognized the Limit of Strength Realm contained in Lin Yi's strike, and they all exclaimed in surprise.

Extreme Strength! This is a Martial Dao Realm that only a Fifth-rank Martial Artist can comprehend! Even many Fifth-rank Martial Artists haven't been able to comprehend it!

But now, Lin Yi, a mere fourteen-year-old youth, has comprehended it. What kind of Prodigy is this?

A Genius like this is someone many people haven't seen in their entire lives.

"Extreme Strength?"

On the arena, hearing the waves of shocked exclamations from all around, Wang Kai also reacted. He first looked at Lin Yi in disbelief, then after being stunned for a moment, a bitter smile couldn't help but appear on his face:

"Extreme Strength, impressive! Truly impressive! I really didn't expect you, Lin Yi, to comprehend such a profound Martial Dao Realm so quickly."

"Although since your Enlightenment, I knew that with your talent, you would eventually comprehend Extreme Strength, I thought that no matter how much of a Prodigy you were, since the time since your Enlightenment was still short, it would at least take until next year to reach this step."

"But I didn't expect that I would ultimately underestimate you! You are even stronger than I imagined!"

"What? Wang Kai, saying all this, have you lost confidence and want to surrender to me now?"

Hearing this, Lin Yi chuckled and joked.

"Surrender to you?"

Hearing these words, Wang Kai also laughed:

"How could that be! Lin Yi, don't look down on me either. Your strength after comprehending Extreme Strength is indeed terrifying, but I, Wang Kai, am no pushover either!"

"I have the strength of the Sixth Grade Middle Stage after all, and I've heard that if one has just entered Extreme Strength and their physical strength isn't enough, they can't erupt with Extreme Strength many times. So, whether you can defeat me today is still uncertain."

"Furthermore, you didn't surrender to me before, so how could I, Wang Kai, surrender to you now?"

"Come! Lin Yi, if you want to defeat me, show your full strength. I want to see just how powerful you, an Extreme Strength expert, really are!"

"Good! In that case, then, as you wish!"

Lin Yi nodded, then stomped his foot.

"Boom!"

A huge sound rang out. On the bluestone arena, as Lin Yi exerted his power, his whole person instantly charged towards Wang Kai like a grasshopper, holding his long saber and slashing with extreme speed.

Because of the brief rest earlier, Lin Yi erupted with another Extreme Strength strike.

The cold long saber, carrying incredibly powerful force and speed, instantly tore through layers of the Void Realm, carving out a brilliant saber light in the Void Realm.

Seeing this terrifying saber light, Wang Kai's breath couldn't help but hitch for an instant, but his powerful Battle Intent still made him immediately raise the great sword in his hand, and then he slashed out a fearsome sword move in the blink of an eye.

Seventh Style of the Great Mountain Opening Sword Technique — Sword Sweeping Mountains and Rivers!

"Boom!"

The sword light swept across like a large axe slashing diagonally, fiercely striking that brilliant saber light.

"Clang!"

As the saber and sword collided, Wang Kai was once again directly knocked back by Lin Yi without any suspense.

"Again!"

Defeated in one move, Wang Kai's face was flushed, and his blood and Qi were surging. He then swung the great sword in his hand again and slashed at Lin Yi.

This time, Lin Yi, who couldn't erupt with Extreme Strength, didn't go head-to-head with him. Instead, he turned the long saber in his hand and once again performed the strongest defensive move of the Bright Moon Saber Technique, "Full Moon Without Flaw," to block Wang Kai's fearsome attack.

"Boom!"

The air exploded. Under Wang Kai's heavy sword strike, Lin Yi was also knocked flying without any suspense.

However, he was merely knocked flying. Although Lin Yi's strength without the Extreme Strength eruption was quite different from Wang Kai's, by relying on the defense-oriented Bright Moon Saber Technique, he could still withstand some moves and wouldn't be defeated in a single strike.

"Haha! Again!"

"Again!"

On the arena, Wang Kai laughed and became more excited as he fought, pursuing Lin Yi to press his advantage.

And so... "Clang! Clang! Clang!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

On the arena, a series of sounds of weapons colliding and air exploding rang out continuously as Lin Yi and Wang Kai fought fiercely.

One had a powerful explosive force, while the other had strong sustained output. Once they clashed, it was truly like a Dragon and tiger fighting, evenly matched and inseparable, causing the surrounding audience to exclaim repeatedly, calling it a thrilling sight.

"Strong! Strong! Strong! Too strong! Is this the strength of the truly top Geniuses of Guangling Prefecture? It's really too strong!"

"Terrifying! How terrifying! I really can't imagine that the two people fighting on the stage are just two youths who have just turned fourteen. If I hadn't seen their youthful faces, I would believe it if someone told me they were experts who had been famous for many years! Compared to them, have I lived my life like a dog?"

"Brother Li! Let's not compare ourselves, mere mortals, with Geniuses like these! Not to mention us, even among the top dignitaries and high-ranking officials present, how many can compare to these two Geniuses? Both of them will enter the Heavenly Mountain Sect in the future and become big figures!"

"Especially that Lin Yi, who can comprehend Extreme Strength at only fourteen. In my opinion, as long as no accidents occur in the future, he will almost certainly achieve the Fourth Rank, and there's even hope for him to become the number one expert in our Guangling Prefecture!"

"Indeed! These two are simply too powerful!"

...The wealthy merchants and dignitaries exclaimed.

At this moment, Lin Yi and Wang Kai, who had fought for more than three hundred moves again, finally reached the climax of their battle.

"Great Mountain Opening Sword Technique — Mountain Shattering!"

On the arena, Wang Kai slashed at Lin Yi with his sword again, as if he wanted to knock Lin Yi right off the arena.

But at this moment, because of the long-term frantic eruption of over a thousand moves in total, a sudden stagnation appeared in the great sword in his hand.

"Good opportunity!"

Seeing this, a sharp light flashed in Lin Yi's eyes. Without hesitation, he directly erupted with Extreme Strength.

"Boom!"

Layers of air were directly split open. At this moment, the air in front of Lin Yi instantly formed a wave of Saber Qi under his long saber.

The air wave enveloped Lin Yi, making his entire being seem like an Incarnation of a giant heavenly saber as he slashed towards Wang Kai.

"Not good!"

Seeing this move, Wang Kai's expression changed. He hurriedly turned the great sword in his hand, switching from offense to defense, trying to block Lin Yi's fatal blow.

But this strike was too fast! Too fierce! Even though Wang Kai defended with all his might, he was still a tiny bit short in the end.

"Swoosh!"

Their figures crossed paths, and the cold saber light also swept past Wang Kai's temple, cutting off a lock of his black hair, just as it had during their Breakthrough encounter at the Number One Training Ground.

"Sorry, Wang Kai. This time, I win again."

Seeing this, Lin Yi turned his head and looked at the somewhat dazed Wang Kai, a faint smile appearing on his face.
