280: Chapter 280 Instantaneous Kill with Mental Power, A Dazzling Momentum!

Soon.

As Li Fan clicked on match.

In just a short while, the environment before Li Fan's eyes drastically changed.

In the blink of an eye.

Li Fan now stood in a gigantic Beast Fighting Arena.

The spectator stands of the Beast Fighting Arena were packed with dense humanoid light figures.

The cheers were like a mountain flood and a tsunami.

This made one's blood surge even before the fight began.

And in front of Li Fan, there stood a bald, burly man holding a massive black axe.

Next to him, some of his information was displayed.

"Bahu Star Domain, Yushan, Wins 21, Losses 7, Rank..."

Judging from his information, it was very straightforward.

This was not a very strong opponent.

At least, not for Li Fan.

Just as Li Fan was sizing up the burly man, he had already swung his great axe and brought it down towards Li Fan.

The terrifying axe mark resembled a vast, imposing mountain, making one feel as if they were suffocating.

"Daring to be distracted on the stage, take my axe first!"

The burly man shouted fiercely, a hint of excitement on his face.

In his view, Li Fan was just a weakling who had luckily won one match, practically someone sent to give him points!

Facing such an excellent draw, he would not give his opponent any chance to breathe.

And Li Fan's performance was exactly as he imagined—he didn't dodge at all.

Or rather, Li Fan had no intention of dodging.

Li Fan stood calmly with his hands behind his back, looking at the descending giant axe with an exceptionally composed expression.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The giant axe landed on Li Fan's head, instantly stirring up terrifying shockwaves and erupting with a deafening roar.

And immediately after.

Cracks, like a spiderweb, began to appear on the giant axe. After a few breaths, it completely disintegrated, turning into fragments like gravel.

"This?!"

The bald man looked at the disintegrated axe in his hand, his blood-stained, constantly trembling hands, and Li Fan, who remained completely unharmed and utterly calm. He couldn't help but subconsciously swallow his saliva, his eyes widening immensely.

It wasn't just him.

All the light figures in the spectator stands also had their eyes widened to an incredible degree.

He took a direct hit from a giant axe with his head, the axe shattered, but not a single strand of his hair was broken.

What kind of monster is this?!

"You have quite some strength."

Li Fan looked at the burly man and couldn't help but offer an evaluation.

The next second, Li Fan flashed behind the burly man.

Li Fan raised one large hand and gave the burly man a light flick on the forehead.

Thwack!

Everyone present felt a chill run down the back of their necks simultaneously.

Li Fan, without any surprise.

Easily secured the second victory in this Inheritance Competition.

"My goodness, this Li Fan is quite fierce!"

"More than just fierce? He is incredibly ferocious! This is the first time I've seen someone dare to take an axe with his head! What terrifying confidence is that?!"

"This guy must be a cultivator who specializes in physical body training. This physical strength is truly superb!"

"Whoa, this Li Fan is actually from our Tianlan Star Domain. I wonder if he can become a dark horse and break into the top thousand."

"It's too early to call him a dark horse now. The number of matches is too small; one or two fights aren't enough for reference. But we can note this person down."

In the spectator stands, discussions erupted.

Many people were shocked by Li Fan's formidable fighting style, leaving a very deep impression on them.

However, this fight didn't cause any major waves.

After all, the number of matches was indeed too small.

There were billions of Contestants, and their strengths varied wildly, inevitably leading to situations where the gap in strength was too large.

To truly draw attention, there was only one way.

That was to appear on the rankings!

And the ranking in the preliminary round didn't need to be too high; it wasn't necessary to rush into the top thousand or even the top hundred, an absurd level. Simply maintaining a position within the top one billion was enough to attract considerable notice.

As for Li Fan.

After successfully finishing his first battle, Li Fan didn't hesitate at all and immediately started the second one.

Currently, the number of wins for the top-ranked person had reached six hundred and three, and it was still rising.

Li Fan's goal for the first day wasn't high; he aimed for five hundred wins first!

...

Over the next half-day.

Li Fan embarked on a journey of frantic matching.

In the subsequent battles, facing all matched opponents, Li Fan wasted no words; he instantly killed the opponent with Mental Energy upon meeting them!

And it must be said.

For a Divine Illusionist, the efficiency of killing opponents much weaker than oneself was truly fast!

It was almost no different from Annihilation Eye!

And considering his current Mental Energy intensity, if he were to cultivate some secret spiritual arts for enhancement and amplification, perhaps even a general first-tier Cosmic or even a second-tier Cosmic might not necessarily withstand it.

Of course, the specific situation would only be known through actual combat.

But regardless of anything else, with his current combat power in terms of Mental Energy, as long as he didn't encounter a championship seedling like Jiang Yunxu, it was enough for him to instantly kill his way to the third stage relying solely on spiritual attacks.

And just as Li Fan was frantically matching.

In Li Daguo's private space in the virtual network.

Huang Lan, Gu Ling, Lu Qilai, and the others who had gathered to watch Li Fan fight were all stunned speechless.

Originally, everyone intended to happily watch Li Fan battle and cheer for him together.

But the result was.

Except for the first battle they could clearly see, they couldn't keep up with Li Fan's rhythm in the subsequent fights.

Every time they entered, the interface would display that Li Fan had already won, and they didn't see any combat footage at all!

After this repeated dozens or even a hundred times.

Everyone got tired of chasing Li Fan's pace and simply started watching Li Fan's win count and rank!

But even so.

Li Fan's constantly fluctuating data made them feel thrilled and extremely excited!

In just half a day.

Li Fan's win count soared all the way from two wins to currently four hundred and ninety wins, and it was still rising!

And Li Fan's rank also jumped from over ten billion to over one hundred million. Now, with every win, his rank would surge forward by hundreds of thousands or even millions of places; his momentum was quite ferocious!

Of course, this also indirectly showed the intensity of the preliminary round!

And urged by the competition rules.

This level of intensity would continue until the later stages of the preliminary round.

In the later stages, perhaps winning just one or two more matches could eliminate several million or even tens of millions of people.

"Brother Fan is too strong?!"

"If he keeps this momentum, I feel like he can quickly break into the top fifty million!"

Lu Qilai, Ma Xiu, and the others couldn't help but exclaim.

They were not well-informed about Li Fan's recent situation. They only knew that Li Fan had gained a lot recently and had even gone to some academy for further studies.

They had anticipated that Li Fan would be strong beforehand, but they never expected him to be this strong!

And just as the group was surprised.

Li Fan's eye-catching momentum quickly sparked a small wave of discussion on the forums.
