Infinite Evolution: My Comprehension Talent is The Strongest Cheat
Chapter 12: Then There Were Two...

Chapter 12: Then There Were Two...

"A pity, really..." Mei Lin sighed, turning her head away from the Arena.

After all Jin’s victories, she began to believe that he’d go the whole way and even emerge as the Champion.

However, some things just weren’t meant to be.

But then something... unbelievable happened.

Under the astonished eyes of hundreds of Outer Disciples, the two male Outer Elders, and the Outer Deacon Announcer, Jin... pinched the tip of Chan Wu’s silver sword.

This action dispersed all of Chan Wu’s momentum, leaving him suspended in mid-air, entirely lifted up by Jin’s two fingers.

Everyone was shocked stupid.

What even were they seeing right now!?

The infamous wastrel of the Yang Sect—blocking famous genius Chan Wu’s attack with ease. This shouldn’t be possible!

"Yang Kai..." Xin Meng looked at the nonchalant young boy on stage, conflicting emotions whirling around inside her.

"This brat..." Mei Lin smiled, having been the last of the Outer Elders to witness something extraordinary.

"This..." Chan Wu was baffled. He may not have put his all into that attack, but at least 60% of his strength had been used. But more than that, it was the fact that he couldn’t pull his sword out of Jin’s grasp that truly stunned him.

Jin uncaringly watched as Chan Wu discarded his sword, retreating dozens of meters.

Jin’s focus was actually elsewhere.

[Your Understanding is Against-Heaven. By observing and experiencing the Martial Art ’Frigid Sovereign Sword Arts,’ you have comprehended the Superior Martial Art ’Absolute Zero Sword Arts’.]

"A pretty decent technique," Jin muttered to himself. At his fingertips, small ice particles gathered.

Outward energy manifestation may not be viable until the Martial Grandmaster Realm, but there were other inferior utilizations of Outward Spiritual Energy.

The two major ones were Innate Talent with certain Elements and the cultivation of Unique Martial Arts.

For Chan Wu, it was both, as he had a high Innate Talent for the Ice Element as well as access to a Secret Ice-based Technique he found in his roaming of the outside world. Each qualified him as gifted, but with both, he became a Genius.

|Absolute Zero Sword Arts|

"!!!" "!!!"

The Outer Elders were already astonished by Jin’s previous display of physical strength; however, after he used that Martial Art, their eyes bulged. They couldn’t believe what they were seeing, as it was too much out of the realm of possibility.

THUD!

Chan Wu collapsed to the ground, his eyes rolled into the back of his head.

But to the numerous spectators, this was only normal. After all, in front of Chan Wu, a long line of several meter tall ice spikes stood strong and sharp. And of the spikes, the last one stopped but mere inches away from piercing through Chan Wu’s face.

It would’ve been weirder if he didn’t faint and collapse.

"M-Martial Master!" The long-bearded Outer Elder’s boisterous voice cut through the silence of the Arena. Yet he wasn’t done, and continued to say, "N-N-Not just that, but a Martial Master capable of true outward spiritual energy projection!!"

Incomprehensible!

"That Yang Kai... He’s been fooling us all along..."

Many who used to bully and insult Yang Kai hung their heads low. They dared not look up and face the domineering young boy below, knowing full well that he could kill them in an instant if he so wished.

"Hahaha!" The long-bearded Outer Elder laughed heartily, revealing all his white teeth. "The Heavens have truly blessed our Yang Sect! A divine genius has been born!"

Mei Lin, once past the initial surprise, smiled.

Her intuition was never wrong.

Meanwhile, Chen Hao, who had regained consciousness some time ago before immediately brewing up a sinister plot to get back at Jin, was now frozen in place. All previous malicious thoughts vanished into the wind, as he may have been overbearing, but he was no fool.

The strength Jin just displayed was on par with if not above that of the Sect Leader.

Even his father, a Grand Elder, could do nothing in the face of power like that...

"The rest of the Competition..." The Announcer showed a helpless look.

"Ah, yes, yes, do continue the Competition!" The long-bearded man got a bit carried away, but as there was a correct order for everything, it was best to conclude the Competition properly.

The next person Jin faced was a 14-year-old named Mo Haotin. But in the same second the match started, it ended with Mo Haotin conceding.

With Chan Wu out of commission, Mo Haotin went on to face Xin Meng.

Xin Meng won just barely.

Then there were two.
