100: Beast horde surrounds the island, launching a surprise attack on the Dragon Kingdom.

A thunderous roar filled with endless killing intent echoed throughout the area.

Facing this violent power, Lin Yan, who was speeding forward, showed no signs of slowing down or any change in his gaze.

He simply swung his right arm and punched forward with a clenched fist.

A seemingly ordinary straight punch erupted with a powerful, invisible pressure that caused Wituo and Luo Lin's expressions to change drastically.

What?!

Boom—!

A deafening sound.

The ultimate strike launched by the combined effort of a hundred people was brutally torn apart, and a mighty pressure, like Mount Tai crushing an egg, instantly enveloped everyone's bodies.

In an instant.

Bang... bang bang bang—!

Explosions sounded one after another, and masses of blood mist continuously burst open in various locations.

Wituo and Luo Lin, who were sent flying and spitting blood, felt the tearing weakness in their bodies, their eyes filled with horror.

What kind of strength is this?

A hundred people! A full hundred people!

After a single strike, only the two of them remained!!

There was no time to think further.

A red figure instantly caught up.

"Ugh..."

An irresistible, immense force locked onto their throats like iron tongs, violently dragging them down from mid-air.

Bang—!

The ground shook, kicking up countless plumes of dust.

"Two Dark Cultists weaklings."

"Where is your backup plan?"

The indifferent yet deep voice seemed to come from the Nine Nether Hell.

Feeling the suffocating pressure on their necks, the two looked in terror at the expressionless Lin Yan standing before them.

"W-we... we don't know..."

"You don't know..."

A soft murmur sounded.

Lin Yan suddenly exerted force with both hands toward the center.

Bang—!

Two heads exploded, and two headless corpses crashed heavily onto the ground.

[Overwhelmingly annihilated the coalition of two countries. domineering index: Six Stars. charge value: 120%]

In the center of the blood-splattered ground, Lin Yan took out a Half-Step King Rank Halberd Technique martial skill stone.

"Fusion."

"Ding!"

"100% charge value consumed. Half-Step King Rank Martial Skill Fusion successful."

The Ninth Meridian, which had just surged, rose again, and his cultivation experienced another Breakthrough of two stages, reaching Ninth Rank Fifth Stage.

After standing still and pondering for a moment, he looked up at the core area of the isolated island he was about to reach, then flashed and vanished from his spot... The spectators from various countries sat down, their eyes somewhat numb.

What they had expected to be an earth-shattering battle turned out to be a scene of crushing, overwhelming slaughter.

Regarding this result... what could they do besides remain silent?

The fastest Youth Grand Competition in history to yield a result was about to be concluded.

No one would be that guy's opponent.

Not even the Ninth Rank Exotic Beasts residing in the core area he was heading toward could stop him!

The effortless battle process just now, without needing to reveal meridians, was enough to prove that this strongest Prodigy on Blue Star definitely possessed cross-tier combat power at the Ninth Rank High Stage.

Not only were the Prodigies of various countries despairing, but many of the older generation and veterans were also questioning life itself.

Ninth Rank! Ninth Rank!!

Is this kid really a poet?

"I suddenly feel a little melancholy," Mo Fan said with a dejected expression. "Before I knew it, this kid could already smash my head with one punch."

Hearing this.

Sikong Gang and the others couldn't help but feel a chill rush straight to their heads.

Liu Bai smiled, his tone filled with emotion.

"Don't even mention yourself. If I faced him now, I'd probably just be getting beaten up."

"This kid's growth speed is simply astonishing."

Shi Lanzhi, who had remained silent the entire time, slowly spoke.

"His strength has already touched the Heavenly Extreme."

What?

The group suddenly turned their heads... Yao Tianyi and the others, who had just recovered, were preparing to hunt Exotic Beasts to gain points.

"Holy crap!"

A cry of surprise rang out.

"Look at the rankings!"

Everyone immediately looked at their wristbands, their pupils simultaneously contracting.

The names of the two teams originally ranked second and third in the national rankings were directly erased.

"Captain...!"

Yao Tianyi cast his gaze toward the center of the isolated island, his voice filled with determination.

"Hunt Exotic Beasts!"

"Don't disgrace the Captain!"

Everyone roared in unison.

"Yes!"

They had a premonition that this Grand Competition would definitely become the most boast-worthy experience of their lives.

Because given a little more time, they wouldn't even have the qualifications to look upon that person... "Roar!"

A Poison Rock Ape with combat power around Ninth Rank Third Stage roared, fell to the ground, and closed its unwilling eyes.

Lin Yan glanced at his stable first-place ranking on the personal leaderboard and, ignoring everyone else, started a fire and began to barbecue.

He had killed all the Eighth Rank and Ninth Rank Exotic Beasts in the core area but found nothing.

Could he have guessed wrong?

Was the scheme of Saul and Adolf simply to use combined encirclement, or even the Ninth Rank Exotic Beasts in the central area, to achieve their goal of killing him?

Under normal circumstances, this was indeed possible.

After all, in their eyes at the time, he was merely someone who had cleared the kings road under circumstances they knew nothing about.

Therefore, no matter how high his cultivation combat power was, it shouldn't have reached the Ninth Rank.

But for some reason.

Lin Yan flipped the golden-brown barbecue meat skewered on the tip of his heavenly emperor halberd.

He always had a faint feeling that things weren't that simple.

While he was lost in thought, the sky gradually brightened, and sunlight shone down through the leaves.

In that instant, something suddenly happened.

Rumble—!

The entire isolated island suddenly began to shake violently.

Lin Yan abruptly stood up from the ground, his eyes grave as he looked toward the coastline visible in his sight.

This aura!

Is this your killer move?

Everyone on the island looked toward their nearest coastline, their faces filled with horror.

This is! A Beast Tide!!

The Great Ocean Beast Tide!!

"Zzzzt..."

All broadcasts across the entire Blue Star were simultaneously interrupted.

Saul and Adolf instantly vanished from the Observation Center.

"How can there be a Beast Tide led by a King Rank entity!"

"Bard, is this how your Grizzly Bear Country selects the venue for the Grand Competition?"

A flash of anger crossed Bard's face, and he was about to say something.

Jiang Mobai patted his shoulder.

"It's just the thief crying 'stop thief'."

"Let's solve the current problem first."

"I want to see what these two ultimately intend to do."

The two immediately vanished from their spots... Simultaneously, at the same moment the Grand Competition island underwent a huge change.

Dragon Country, Parliament Building.

"Speaker!"

General Xu An walked into the office with a solemn expression.

"Beast Tides have simultaneously appeared at our country's six major Coastal Defense Points."

Xia Zhou immediately rose from the sofa.

"Sound the alarm."

"Recall all Heavenly Extreme Palace members in our country."

After completing the orderly arrangements, a cold light flashed in his eyes.

As expected, it has arrived.

Simultaneously with the Beast Tide surrounding the island, the Great Ocean Exotic Beasts also mobilized.

What a perfectly coordinated sequence... "Doo~~~ doo~~~~ doo~~~~~~!"

Across the entire Dragon Country.

Just as everyone was wondering why the Grand Competition live broadcast had suddenly been interrupted.

A loud alarm sounded throughout every city in every prefecture.

The slightly slower-reacting citizens were momentarily stunned.

Boom... boom boom boom... Fighter jets and helicopters belonging to the military flew across the sky above their heads.

The quicker-reacting citizens rushed out from various places, shouting loudly.

"Reinforcements!"

Most of these people were middle-aged and elderly faces.

When the stunned young people heard this powerful shout, an Iron Decree deeply buried in their memories was instantly recalled.

Their expressions suddenly changed, and they all turned their heads to look toward the coastal prefectures.

The Great Ocean Beast Tide!
