Chapter 524: Chapter 12: The Fury of the Angry Sun

On the morning of the second day, under the watchful eye of the Furious Sun God, the mid-stage combat trials unfolded.

Combatants from the various Dukes entered the battlefield one after another, only Lu Hong remained still.

Seeing this, Duke Zuo Shu mocked, "I remember now, he’s that junior combatant brought in to make up the numbers, right? What’s wrong? Too scared to step into the arena?"

After a night of painful reflection, Duke Qi An had grown immune to Zuo Shu’s words, he had not come with any expectations and simply awaited Lu Hong’s defeat before leaving.

Duke Qi An didn’t speak, but Lu Hong did, "What’s the rush? The Sariren duels don’t seem to have a rule about when to enter, do they?"

Upon hearing Lu Hong’s words, the crowd thought about it and realized that was indeed the case!

But those who had entered the arena were not fools either, one less person to fight against, so they just waited, biding their time, risking angering the majestic Heavenly God, with the ultimate punishment sure to fall upon this youngster.

Witnessing such a scene, the Furious Sun God chuckled, "This kid is quite interesting."

However, the All-Knowning God squinted and said, "Foolish! He’s provoked the wrath of the masses, and notwithstanding his isolated position, he has now forced himself into an impasse."

"Don’t be in such a hurry, whether he’s pretending to be a wolf or not, we’ll find out soon enough."

Without the fight starting inside, there was no point for Lu Hong to continue waiting, so he leaped, like a cannonball, smashing heavily into the arena.

"Let’s kill this kid first!" Everyone was enraged by Lu Hong’s maverick behavior, unanimously targeting him.

But was Lu Hong scared?

The depth of Lu Hong, at the Third Transition Middle Stage, was beyond imagination. He might have feared late-stage fighters without handy weapons, but against the mid-stage, it was not just about having the strength for a single fight.

Under the gaze of the Heavenly Gods, Lu Hong had no intention of hiding anything as it wouldn’t be possible anyway.

Facing the abilities thrown by hundreds of Second Transition middle-stage fighters, a divine light fell from the sky.

What the fuck?!

Seeing Lu Hong bathed in divine light, everyone in the arena bulged their eyes. What the hell was this? Why had they never seen this before?

Meanwhile, up in the clouds, the Furious Sun God suddenly clenched his fists, crushing the armrest of his throne to powder, and muttered, "Heaven... Heavenly God... descending?!"

"Is this the ultimate skill of your warrior profession?" The All-Knowing God observed carefully, discovering the intricacies and couldn’t help but exclaim, "Such a powerful skill, why don’t you know it?"

"Fuck you, shut up!" Right now, the Furious Sun God was in no mood for idle talk with the All-Knowing, his gaze fixated on Lu Hong.

Surrounded by divine light, all Magic Power abilities dissipated like smoke.

And those skills that weren’t based on Blood Qi were swept away by the Blood River summoned by Lu Hong, shattering instantly.

Two hundred eighty-seven versus Lu Hong.

On the first clash, Lu Hong achieved an overwhelming victory.

A powerful pressure emanated from within Lu Hong. The Blood Qi Crystal Stones provided by Lord Lu a few days ago were almost inexhaustible, nearly filling all one hundred and eight of his body’s apertures.

Even Lu Hong himself didn’t fully comprehend precisely how strong he was at his peak.

But the feeling of being at full strength was, indeed, too wonderful!

Lu Hong grinned and said, "Gentlemen, are you ready?"

His words stunned the hundreds of strong fighters. What did he mean by that? Did he really think he could win alone? It was a joke, even with miraculous skills, how could one person resist a hundredfold enemy?

Feeling humiliated, the group of strong fighters launched their attack again.

And Lu Hong, wielding a great sword, plunged into the crowd like an undefeated lion fighting among a pack of wolves, with fierce might.

Witnessing this, Duke Qi An’s eyes, once gray and lifeless, began to shine with light, as if... as if Lu Hong had a chance to win?

Blood Qi Shockwave!

Being surrounded was not easy, and with Lu Hong’s full activation, even the combat arena fortified by the Heavenly God trembled slightly from the shock.

The fate of those at the core of the attack was imaginable.

Even with ample defense prepared, they still retreated step by step under Lu Hong’s strike, suffering minor internal injuries.

Seizing this opportunity, Lu Hong unleashed three consecutive sword strikes, severing the arms of the three warriors in front of him before kicking them away. His immense brute strength inflicted severe injuries on these three formidable opponents, rendering them incapable of fighting.

Among these three was a competitor under the command of Duke Zuo Shu.

The power of a single blow shocked the top hundred; spectators in the stands felt as if Lu Hong didn’t belong in the mid-stage battlefield but rather in the final stage.

"Hold firm, everyone. This kid must have activated a Secret Technique. As long as we stall him, we will surely have the chance to defeat him!"

Having been at a disadvantage, many strong warriors became cautious, but Lu Hong had no intention of letting them go. He raised his sword and charged into the crowd once more.

The fierce battle reignited.

Surrounded by divine light, Lu Hong was immune to Magic, while melee attacks were diminished by his abundant Blood Qi, making it difficult for even Third Transition Middle Stage warriors to inflict significant damage. Meanwhile, Bloodthirst quietly activated. Though no one had died, the blood shed by those warriors still nourished Lu Hong.

Furthermore, Lu Hong’s strength, after his rebirth, had once again broken through its limit. Every attack he made against his opponents felt like a mountain crashing onto their chests. Within a handful of exchanges, they lost the will to continue fighting, retreating a considerable distance and staring at Lu Hong as if he were a monster.

The more Lu Hong fought, the fewer the people around him became, until the last warrior was trampled under his feet, and the area became desolate, with more warriors hiding in the corners of the arena, trembling in fear.

Is this guy even human? Are you sure he’s not some top-level Third Transition powerhouse in disguise?

"Hey? Why aren’t you attacking?" Lu Hong weighed the giant sword in his hand. "Just now you all wanted to take me down. Why do you look like scared turtles now?"

Faced with Lu Hong’s taunting, the multitude of strong warriors fell silent. There was nothing to discuss with this freak!

"How about this: I won’t participate in the upcoming battles, and you all can decide the remaining nine spots among yourselves."

"This...," facing Lu Hong’s proposal, the strong warriors were tempted, but they were also guessing whether the BUFF on Lu Hong’s Skill was about to reach its limit. If they could hold out a little longer, they might be able to kick him out. If this kid wasn’t eliminated, the championship would surely be his.

Seeing their indecision, Lu Hong made the choice for them and activated his full power—Chaotic Uprising!

The warriors all felt the disruption in their Blood Qi.

"He’s releasing some weird Skill. Everyone, resist!"

Concentrating their Magic Power, the warriors tried to suppress the turmoil in their Blood Qi.

However, those who had previously been wounded by Lu Hong’s sword were the first to falter, vomiting large mouthfuls of blood and rapidly growing faint before collapsing to the ground, unconscious.

The warriors who resisted let out a sigh of relief, but as they looked around, the count of more than two hundred was swiftly reduced to under sixty percent.

"Monster...," the remaining people exclaimed in terror, staring at Lu Hong, their will to fight completely gone.

"Chaotic Uprising," the Furious Sun God’s eyes sparked with excitement.

"Is that a Skill even you haven’t mastered?" the All-Knowing God inquired.

"What are you doing, always pointing out my flaws!" the Furious Sun God turned away from the All-Knowing with a flushed face, then returned to watching Lu Hong with a smile. This was a warrior, and one who had received the inheritance of the War God!

Having dealt with more than half of the strong warriors in one go, Lu Hong asked again, "Now, will you consider what I just said?"

"We... we can," the warriors answered shakily.

"Fine, then hurry it up. I still have to compete in the early-stage competition, and I don’t want to waste too much time."

Lu Hong’s words jolted the early-stage strong warriors in the stands into realization. That’s right, this freak was just at the Early Stage of Second Transition, yet he was going to fight them next. This guy could easily bulldoze through mid-stage warriors, so bullying them would be like picking on children, wouldn’t it?

The Second Transition Early Stage warriors participating in the competition trembled, not daring to glance at Lu Hong again, for fear of attracting his attention and being brutally defeated in the early-stage arena.

At this moment, Zuo Shu could no longer sit idle. He had paid a huge price to secure the championship in the late-stage battle. If this kid took the championships in both the early and mid-stage competitions, wouldn’t that mean he lost the bet?

"Heavenly God!" Zuo Shu knelt before the Furious Sun God and spoke, "This Lu Hong must have some trickery. Please, Heavenly God, inspect his real level to ensure he does not disrupt the fairness of the competition!"

"Zuo Shu! What nonsense are you talking about?"

Now Duke Qi An had fully regained his composure and confidence, berating Zuo Shu sharply: "You say Lu Hong is breaking the competition rules, but what about your clandestine alliance with many dukes to manipulate the late-stage battle? What do you have to say about that!"

"Don’t make slanderous accusations without evidence!" Zuo Shu countered sharply.

"Enough!" The voice of the Furious Sun God descended from the clouds, "Lu Hong is fine, indeed at the second level of the Third Transition, and all his actions comply with the competition rules. The competition will continue!"
