Chapter 1666: Reaping What He Sowed
This battle was the longest fight Ling Feng had participated in since entering the second round.
It lasted a full half hour.
In other words, Yuan Huaji had been continuously beaten for half an hour beneath Ling Feng's nonlethal attacks.
The high-ranking elders of Yunluo Sacred Land watched with burning anxiety, yet when they saw that the ten divine generals of the divine race remained completely unmoved in the distance, none of them dared act rashly.
This time, Yuan Huaji had truly brought disaster upon himself. He had no one else to blame.
Bang!
Another punch landed.
Ling Feng directly smashed Yuan Huaji's face crooked before finally kicking him off the arena platform.
During the process of beating him, Ling Feng had secretly used a special technique to displace Yuan Huaji's eight extraordinary meridians.
From this day onward, no matter how Yuan Huaji cultivated, his elemental force would continuously leak away.
Which meant that starting today, his strength would only continue weakening.
He would become more and more worthless.
With someone of Yuan Huaji's character, he had undoubtedly accumulated countless enemies over the years.
Once he became a complete weakling, Ling Feng would not even need to personally deal with him anymore. Others would naturally deliver the punishment he deserved.
Anyone who dared provoke Ling Feng had better prepare themselves for the consequences!
"Roar!"
The instant Yuan Huaji was kicked off the stage, the nine golden dragons behind Ling Feng appeared once more.
The nine dragons surged outward and immediately wrapped around Yuan Huaji, devouring his fortune dragon completely clean.
By the time Yuan Huaji crashed onto the ground, he could no longer condense a fortune dragon behind him.
In other words, his fortune dragon had been completely plundered by Ling Feng.
Not a single trace remained.
His martial path fortune had already dried up completely.
His martial arts road was destined to end here.
"Terrifying! This is too terrifying!"
Everyone's expressions changed drastically.
Seizing half of someone's fortune dragon was common enough.
But completely devouring all of it?
That was simply demonic!
After absorbing Yuan Huaji's fortune dragon, a wave of joy emerged from the depths of Ling Feng's sea of consciousness.
He vaguely sensed subtle changes occurring within his nine fortune dragons.
"So it seems I can actively control whether the fortune dragons devour an opponent's fortune dragon, and even decide how much to devour!"
A faint smile curled onto Ling Feng's lips.
This ability was actually quite useful.
If he encountered familiar companions, then even after defeating them, he could avoid harming their fortune power.
But if he met some disgusting bastard?
Why show mercy?
Drain them dry!
Drain every last bit!
...
One full day passed.
Ling Feng fought seventeen matches and won every single one.
Not a single defeat.
With only three matches remaining, Ling Feng was firmly on track to advance into the third round with a flawless record.
Within Group Six, the contestants likely to advance had already mostly been determined.
Only Yuan Huaji had provoked Ling Feng and ended up heavily injured, unable even to crawl back onto his feet.
As a result, he lost all ten remaining matches consecutively and completely missed the opportunity to advance into the third round.
Yue Huaqing's luck was fairly good.
She had not encountered either Ling Feng or Wang Qian during this round, and currently held a record of sixteen straight victories.
Whoosh!
At that moment, green light flashed around Yue Huaqing as she was teleported onto the arena platform.
The instant she raised her beautiful eyes and saw her opponent standing across from her, a strange expression immediately appeared on her face.
The teammate she encountered this round was none other than Ling Feng!
Ling Feng himself also felt somewhat helpless and shook his head with a bitter smile.
"Looks like this battle between us was unavoidable after all, Senior Sister Yue."
A trace of anticipation flashed through Yue Huaqing's bright eyes.
"Junior Brother Ling, I won't go easy on you just because of that matter!"
Ling Feng merely smiled faintly and said nothing further.
Below the stage, Wang Qian coldly observed Ling Feng.
Aside from thunder divine abilities and his astonishing physical strength, Ling Feng still had not truly revealed any major trump cards from beginning to end.
Facing Yue Huaqing now would more or less force him to expose some of his genuine abilities.
Yue Huaqing exhaled softly and drew out a flexible sword as she closed in.
"Junior Brother Ling, be careful!"
"Heavenly Net Twining Finger Sword!"
Her sword swept outward.
The flexible blade resembled a spiritual snake flicking its tongue as it thrust toward Ling Feng's chest.
"What excellent swordsmanship!"
Ling Feng's eyelids twitched slightly.
The sword art Yue Huaqing used was likely a peak King-tier sword technique.
Compared to martial skills like Heaven Tyrant Fist, it was clearly superior by more than one level.
Yet Ling Feng still did not draw his sword.
Instead, he activated Dragon-Elephant Divine Strength and threw a punch directly toward Yue Huaqing's flexible sword.
Yue Huaqing laughed lightly.
The flexible blade twisted softly with flowing force, impossible to predict, effortlessly dissolving all of Ling Feng's fist force.
Crackle!
Just as Ling Feng's punch force was neutralized by Yue Huaqing's soft coiling force and the sword was about to pierce into his chest, purple lightning suddenly appeared atop Ling Feng's fist.
Crackle!
Lightning arcs burst outward, scorching the surrounding air black.
When the arcs struck Yue Huaqing's skin, they produced faint burning pain.
Most opponents who fought Ling Feng ultimately lost beneath the divine ability Thunder God Shadow.
Combined with the overwhelming destructive power of Dragon-Elephant Divine Strength, martial artists weaker than Ling Feng practically possessed no ability to resist.
However, cunning light flashed within Yue Huaqing's beautiful eyes.
Not only did her flexible sword fail to stop, it accelerated forward instead, effortlessly piercing through the dense lightning without suffering the slightest obstruction.
Ling Feng's expression changed slightly.
His thunder power had actually become completely ineffective!
If the sword struck him directly, he would not immediately lose, but it would still affect his following attacks.
At the critical moment, lightning exploded across Ling Feng's body as he used Divine Thunder Avatar, instantly transforming into thunder and soaring into the sky.
Yue Huaqing's Heavenly Net Twining Finger Sword immediately missed its target.
"Not good!"
The next instant, an icy aura locked down upon her.
Yue Huaqing inwardly cried out in alarm and immediately used her movement technique to retreat rapidly.
Yet even after retreating ten meters at full speed, she still failed to escape.
Soft thunder suddenly sounded behind her.
The moment she heard it, it was already too late.
Her heart pounded violently as her blood and vitality surged chaotically in reverse.
Ling Feng instantly appeared behind her and struck out with a palm.
"It's over!"
However, something shocking happened.
Yue Huaqing was completely unaffected by the thunder power!
At the very moment Ling Feng's palm landed against her back, the woman actually turned around and thrust her sword toward him.
A sly smile flashed within her beautiful eyes.
"Ling Feng, you got careless!"
The flexible sword swept horizontally, scattering countless sword blossoms across the air.
Ling Feng's eyelids jumped wildly as he once again used Divine Thunder Avatar to retreat explosively backward.
Although Ling Feng had intentionally held back because he did not wish to injure Yue Huaqing, the thunder power he had just used could easily have defeated Yuan Huaji.
So why had it failed to affect Yue Huaqing at all?
In the next moment, realization suddenly flashed through Ling Feng's mind.
Attribute suppression!
Yue Huaqing not only possessed water elemental force, she also possessed wood elemental force simultaneously.
Wood attribute naturally restrained thunder attribute.
When she protected herself with wood elemental force, Ling Feng's intentionally weakened thunder power naturally became incapable of harming her.
No matter what, Yue Huaqing was still considered Ling Feng's friend.
Naturally, he would not strike her with ruthless force.
Even if he stopped deliberately suppressing himself, achieving the same overwhelming instant-kill effect would still be extremely difficult.
