42: Third Tier, Third Level, Slaughter Feast

"Interesting."

In a place where no one could notice.

Several figures in black tight-fitting attire stood with their arms crossed, watching the scene in the distance.

"The daughter of the Zuo Family actually came in person to back up this kid."

"Haha."

"I guess this is the treatment for the strongest Prodigy."

"Not to mention, the kid is quite handsome; the Heavenly Extreme Zuo Family is a perfect match for him."

"I just wonder if their young master, Zuo Zhengqing, knows about this."

"After being beaten so badly in the Grand Competition, his own sister is now throwing herself at the guy."

Mo Fan curled his lips.

"From what I know of that kid..."

"...Zuo Zhu will likely find her feelings unrequited."

..."So."

"I now have one free chance to use the protection mechanism."

"And if I want to use it again later, it will cost 500% charge value?"

"Ding!"

"Yes."

"What if my charge value isn't enough?"

"For every Life level, the Host has one and only one chance to go into debt."

"For every Life level, the Host has one and only one chance to use the protection mechanism (the first gift doesn't count), and they cannot be accumulated."

Life level...?

Lin Yan's brows twitched slightly.

"The Host currently belongs to the most primitive Life level."

"Entering the King Rank is the first life transition."

The System's mechanical voice sounded.

"Host."

"The protection mechanism is intended to deal with sudden changes during the Host's growth."

"It will disappear at an appropriate time."

"Please do not rely on it excessively."

So the King Rank is a life transition.

Lin Yan nodded slightly.

"I understand."

"How effective will it be to absorb this Tier 3 Spirit Medicine?"

"Ding!"

"Consuming 30% charge value, it is estimated to increase cultivation by one level."

Oh?

It can actually increase it by a whole level.

It must be because he absorbed quite a few Tier 1 and Tier 2 Spirit Medicines yesterday.

30% in exchange for one level of cultivation.

What's there to think about?

"Absorb."

"Ding!"

"Commencing absorption."

A light glowed from the backpack behind Lin Yan, and violent spiritual energy instantly surged through his entire body.

His blood boiled, and the third meridian rose.

Tier 3 Level 3, achieved!

This power.

He clenched his fists, a cold smile appearing on his lips.

Let them all stay inside... "Hmph."

Two groups of people entered the Secret Realm one after another.

They glanced at each other, both letting out cold snorts.

I really don't know what the Family Head is thinking.

Just a brat.

To make them cooperate with those they've been opposed to for years.

However.

It was just a thought.

They still had to firmly carry out the orders.

"Huang Ling."

"Tian Feng."

A man and a woman leading their respective sides spoke at the same time.

"How should we divide the corridors later?"

"That kid should have taken one."

"Let's go check the number of corridors first."

"Fine."

A total of forty-six people from the Huang Family and the Tian Family moved forward together.

Soon.

They arrived at a dim intersection.

And.

They all stopped simultaneously, looking at the figure holding a halberd in the dim light, their eyes filled with surprise and amusement.

"Interesting."

Huang Ling and Tian Feng smiled at the same time.

"It saves us the time of searching."

The scene shifted.

Lin Yan looked up, watching the many figures appearing one after another.

"So slow."

Hearing this.

Everyone from the Huang Family and the Tian Family started laughing.

"Haha."

"This kid thinks he's still in the auditions for the Freshman Grand Competition."

"Young King!"

"Indeed."

"I haven't experienced the thrill of killing a Prodigy like this yet."

Tier 3 Level 9, two people.

Tier 3 Level 8, six people.

The rest are all Tier 3 Level 5 or above.

The Huang Family and the Tian Family certainly went all out.

Lin Yan's double pupils flickered as he slowly scanned the crowd.

Hmm?

He paused, his gaze resting on two young men in black.

These two... their cultivation is indeed Tier 3 Level 8.

But on them... Lin Yan's eyes flickered.

Their blood actually carries characteristics of exotic beasts.

It's very faint, but it can't escape his double pupils.

Dark Cultists!

These must be the members of the Dark Cultists that Old Duan and Mo Fan mentioned.

To think there'd be this pleasant surprise.

As expected of seeing through illusions.

Doesn't that mean he can easily identify Dark Cultists members later?

The System seemingly couldn't stand his inner thoughts anymore.

"Host."

"The function of the Hegemons Double Pupils is more than just this."

"Your cultivation is currently too low, so it can only serve as an auxiliary."

"In the future, you will understand that killing someone with a single glance is not an exaggeration."

Oh?

Lin Yan raised an eyebrow.

So the current ability of the double pupils is just auxiliary?

"Kid."

"Speak."

"You dared to kill our young master."

"How do you want to die?"

Numerous mocking voices continued.

Huang Ling and Tian Feng stood with their arms crossed, sneering, in no hurry.

Today.

This kid is surely dead.

Lin Yan composed his thoughts.

Future matters will be dealt with in the future.

The youth looked up.

"It's time to send you all on your way."

He took a step forward.

Bang!

A loud explosion sounded.

Huang Ling and Tian Feng's eyes narrowed simultaneously.

"Kill!"

Although they were contemptuous in their hearts, none of them were slow in their actions.

As their voices fell.

Everyone charged forward at once.

Instantly.

Spiritual energy erupted, and blood surged.

Streaks of light from reveal meridians instantly illuminated the dim Secret Realm.

The battle.

Broke out.

"Hahaha!"

The youth laughed loudly, sweeping his halberd in a wide arc.

Hegemon's Halberd: Chaotic Battle Under Heaven

"Roar!"

The violent blood in his body triggered a series of tiger roars.

A black streak of light attached itself to the heavenly emperor halberd as it swept through the charging crowd.

Clang... the weapons clashed for the first time.

The expressions of Huang Ling and Tian Feng at the front changed instantly.

This power!

Boom!

A massive force instantly struck their entire bodies.

With a resounding boom.

The two were sent flying back simultaneously.

Immediately after.

Clang, clang, clang, clang!

The continuous sound of clashing weapons rang out again.

Crack!

Along with the sounds of weapons shattering one after another.

"What!!"

"How is this possible!"

"Not good!"

"This kid's combat strength!!!"

"So strong!"

Incredulous roars of shock echoed.

Bang... bang bang bang... figure after figure spat out blood and were sent flying back even faster than they had charged forward.

In an instant.

With just one strike.

The dozens of people charging at the front were all swept away.

Consequently.

Their flying bodies also knocked back the people behind them.

The forty-six-man team of the Huang Family and the Tian Family.

Was in complete chaos.

"Cough... cough cough..."

Huang Ling and Tian Feng immediately stood up.

They clutched their aching chests, their hearts filled with horror.

How is this possible!

With so many people, even an invincible Tier 3 Level 9 could be easily hunted down.

This kid...!

They simply couldn't believe it.

In just one encounter, the absolute confidence they had held just seconds ago was ruthlessly shattered.

But.

They could only remain in disbelief.

For after that one strike, Lin Yan had already charged into the mess of a team like a wild beast.

"Haha... Hahahaha!"

The youth laughed wildly, swinging his halberd with abandon.

The feast of slaughter begins!
