Martial Conquest of the Nine Desolates
Chapter 323 - 321: Stomp You Flat

Chapter 323: Chapter 321: Stomp You Flat

The purpose of the challenge competition is to allow members of the Genius Camp to spar with each other in Martial Arts, aiming for mutual improvement.

This challenge competition is especially significant since Xiang Nan and Mo Ye, two of the three monsters of the Genius Camp, will be participating.

Members of the Genius Camp are filled with eager anticipation.

This is the first time they will witness the real Heavenly Son in action, and naturally, they are excited.

"This challenge competition allows you to freely choose your opponents. Besides forbidding killings, there are not many rules. You can display your strength to your heart’s content," Jiu Zhu said.

"Indeed, Lord Starfall has specifically sent me and Jiu Zhu to oversee this and has even offered five million Contribution Points as a reward. Anyone who performs excellently in the challenge can obtain these rewards," Fu Xuedao, who had been silent, now spoke up.

Five million Contribution Points!

The crowd trembled with excitement, their eyes gleaming with enthusiasm; the rewards in previous years totaled only one million.

How could they not be thrilled when Lord Starfall was being so generous this time?

Furthermore, the most important thing was that one didn’t need to be invincible to earn Contribution Points; it was enough to satisfy Jiu Zhu and Fu Xuedao.

Even members from the Genius Camp with lesser strength were eager to try.

"Five million Contribution Points..." Even Xiao Ye showed interest.

What he needed most now were Contribution Points. If he could exchange them for the Essence of Primordial Stone, his strength would surge again. This attraction was hard for him to resist.

As Jiu Zhu announced the start of the challenge, pairs of sharp eyes tore through the void, and an invisible War Intent soared to the sky as everyone searched for their opponents.

"Ou Tianyuan, come out for a battle with me. I want to see how much you’ve improved in this half-year!" Soon, a handsome youth burst forth, a great force emanating from him while holding a long spear, looking very dashing.

Xiao Ye focused and realized he recognized him. This person had a Ninth-Transformation Profound Martial Middle Stage cultivation and was one of the top warriors in Mo Ye Team.

"Humph, my improvements will surely surprise you!"

A tall, striding youth emerged, his eyes as sharp as knives, seeming capable of cutting through one’s skin, an extraordinary sight.

This person was Ou Tianyuan, a member of the Mo Ye Team, fighting for their own glory in the challenge.

The two young powerhouses stared at each other, and the spear-wielding youth roared, unleashing his strongest power, his spear striking towards Ou Tianyuan like a Jiao Dragon emerging from its lair.

Boom!

Ou Tianyuan countered powerfully. The collision of their peaks created a terrifying sound, waves of substantive halos spreading out in all directions, forming a massive shockwave.

However, these shockwaves, though formidable, were casually dispersed by Jiu Zhu and Fu Xuedao with a simple wave of their hands.

Members of the Genius Camp watched the fight intently, hoping it would inspire them to breakthrough in their cultivation.

"These two, like me, hid some of their abilities during the previous assessments," Xiao Ye noticed as their strengths gradually climbed, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.

If not for his possession of the Time Tower and the Four Profound Treasure Technique, the gap between him and these geniuses would be significant.

Half an hour later, the two youths, panting, stopped and stared at each other with eyes full of unwillingness because they had hidden their power, and after exploding with all their might, they found neither could overcome the other.

"Let’s consider this challenge a draw," Fu Xuedao, who rarely spoke, said.

The spear-wielding youth and Ou Tianyuan, having no choice but to acknowledge their inability to best one another, nodded reluctantly. Since they couldn’t do anything to each other, continuing the fight would only waste time.

"Ou Tianyuan, I look forward to our battle in six months!"

"I feel the same, I hope you won’t disappoint me."

The two spoke one after another and then turned to walk back to their respective teams.

"Jin Yunshan, you performed well in the assessment. I want to see how strong your true abilities are," Just then, a short-haired youth flew out and spoke icily.

Challenging Jin Yunshan?

Xiao Ye slightly furrowed his brows. That short-haired youth was from Xiang Nan’s Team, possessing Ninth-Transformation Profound Martial Middle Stage cultivation. Half a month ago, in a tavern of the Genius Camp, he had been injured by him.

And while Jin Yunshan had made great progress, his strength had only just stepped into the realm of Ninth-Transformation Profound Martial Middle Stage. If he were to engage with the short-haired youth, defeat was more likely.

"Challenge me? Sure," Jin Yunshan, instead of refusing, stepped forward, facing the short-haired youth calmly.

"Jin Yunshan, you’re in luck. I just perfected my Seventh Grade Battle Technique, Azure Dragon Shout. You’ll be the first to experience its power," the short-haired youth said with a cold smile.

What!

Hearing his words, the Dragon Hunter Team’s expressions subtly changed.

In the Genius Camp, very few members could perfect a Seventh-Grade Battle Technique. For instance, Kuang Dao could counter a Late Stage of Nine-Transformation Mystic Martial warrior by perfecting Thunder Slash.

In the next moment, the crowd could vaguely perceive a massive Azure Dragon materializing behind the short-haired youth, emanating an overwhelming Qi, and pressing against the entire All Heavens World.

"Not bad at all, this kid managed to perfect the Azure Dragon Shout; quite a perceptive young man," Fu Xuedao exclaimed in amazement.

Standing beside him, Jiu Zhu agreed, "Indeed, the sheer power of this Azure Dragon Shout is formidable. It seems like Jin Yunshan is going to lose."

At the Central Square.

Jin Yunshan’s pupils constricted as he felt his body tremble under this intense aura, as if he were facing a real Divine Dragon.

"So what if it’s a Seventh Grade Battle Technique perfected? I will not give up!"

Suppressing the fear in his heart, Jin Yunshan rallied his strength to its peak and charged toward the short-haired youth.

"Be defeated!"

As the short-haired youth roared, a blue Divine Dragon illusion appeared, opening its terrifying Divine Eyes. Unmatched Divine Power spread out, making the entire void tremble, enveloping everyone within its reach.

"To be able to transform Mystic Martial power into a Divine Dragon, this Combat Technique is really powerful," Xiao Ye thought to himself.

Roar!

The immense Green Dragon Illusion raised its head in a long shout. The dragon’s cry created visible ripples in the void, like waves on water surfaces.

"Ah!"

What seemed like gentle ripples lightly collided with Jin Yunshan midway in the air, causing his body to tremble and then flinging him out, making him crash heavily to the ground and cough up blood.

"How strong!"

The onlookers were shocked; just the sound of the dragon’s roar had blown Jin Yunshan away. This was horrifying. With this move, this short-haired youth could rank just behind Guo Tao in Xiang Nan’s Team.

"You are considered excellent in the Dragon Hunting Team, yet you can’t even take one move from me; it is truly embarrassing. You might as well admit defeat; you cannot beat me," the short-haired youth said scornfully, hands behind his back, looking down at Jin Yunshan on the ground.

Pfft!

Jin Yunshan struggled to his feet, spitting out another mouthful of blood, his face filled with disbelief still immersed in the shock of being blown away by a single move.

Upon hearing the short-haired youth’s words, anger surged on his face.

"I haven’t lost yet, why should I admit defeat!"

"Hmph, I was waiting for you to say those words. If you don’t surrender, and I harm you by mistake, even Lord Jiu Zhu cannot blame me."

The short-haired youth smirked inwardly, and with a loud shout, the massive body of the Green Dragon Illusion charged directly towards Jin Yunshan, the enormous Suppression spreading awe-inspiringly.

Shush!

The Dragon Hunting Team members’ faces changed dramatically. If this move hit, Jin Yunshan would definitely be severely injured, and the short-haired youth would not be punished.

Amidst the intense suppression, Jin Yunshan was brought back to his senses, stunned in place, forgetting even to dodge.

"That’s too much!" Qing Wu’s hair fluttered as a fierce cold light flashed in her beautiful eyes. Her delicate body moved swiftly to save Jin Yunshan.

"Hmph, Qing Wu, Jin Yunshan hasn’t admitted defeat; by interfering in the duel, the one being excessive is you," Guo Tao intercepted Qing Wu’s move.

"Guo Tao!"

Qing Wu’s eyes widened in fury, her delicate body trembling, knowing that Jin Yunshan couldn’t afford this delay.

Just then, a familiar voice rang out: "Ten Thousand Refining Golden Body!"

Right after, a fierce golden glow burst forth, and a foot wrapped in golden light descended from the sky, stomping on Guo Tao’s head. The terrifying force flat-pressed Guo Tao, completely unprepared.

And the figure enveloped by the golden glow leveraged the momentum, shooting out a golden fist that spanned across the void, imbued with overwhelming power, and striking the Green Dragon Illusion.

The Green Dragon Illusion cried out in pain before being shattered by the golden fist into scattering stardust in the void.

This sudden turn of events left everyone stunned.

That powerful Green Dragon Illusion was simply blown away with a single punch; this was almost too terrifying for Xiao Ye.

And what was most laughable was that the striking person deliberately stomped Guo Tao down. This was clearly an insult to Guo Tao; otherwise, a Mystic Martial cultivator could fly through the air without requiring any leverage.

"Guo Tao, sorry, I initially wanted to challenge you, but my impatience got the better of me, and I just made my move. You wouldn’t refuse my challenge anyway, right?"

As the golden glow dissipated, a young man in a black robe appeared in front of everyone.

"Xiao Ye!"

Guo Tao, furious, his face flushed with rage, got up from the ground, his eyes burning with anger. Upon hearing Xiao Ye’s words, his blood boiled, nearly spewing it.

What do you mean by being too impatient and just taking action?

That was completely a sneak attack!

But Xiao Ye had already spoken; could he still refuse the challenge? Knowing that to counter Xiao Ye’s Ten Thousand Refining Golden Body, he had specially cultivated a Secret Technique.

"Xiao Ye, this time I will crush you publicly under my feet!" Guo Tao roared inwardly.
