Chapter 471: 471

Hum—

The golden staff swung through the air, emitting a buzzing sound.

Sun Fengyu wielded the golden staff in his hand, closing in on Lin Chen with remarkable speed.

Lin Chen drew his bow, shooting out an arrow with the Thunder Chasing Strike.

However, to the astonishment of the crowd, Sun Fengyu managed to block the silver Arrow Feather shot by Lin Chen with his golden staff.

After blocking Lin Chen’s Arrow Feather, Sun Fengyu quickly moved closer to Lin Chen.

As Lin Chen tried to draw a second arrow, he found that Sun Fengyu was already upon him.

"So fast!"

"This lad does have some skill."

Facing Sun Fengyu, Lin Chen felt like he was confronting a formidable enemy and dared not underestimate him in the slightest.

Lin Chen had never believed that he had the ability to look down on everyone.

As long as he could avoid revealing too much of his strength, Lin Chen was willing to end the battle quickly.

However, the Sun Fengyu in front of him was clearly different from the average martial artist; he was a practitioner of brutal strength specializing in Body Cultivation.

Or perhaps, the strength of his physique was closely related to the iron staff in his hands.

"What a pity, I thought you might keep me entertained for a while, but to my surprise, you turned out to be so feeble."

"It seems that your performance in the Trial Tower must have been due to some Exotic Treasure tailored against Spiritual Puppets."

"Although I don’t understand how you managed to cling to the coattails of that Princess Xia Wanxin from Yanwu Country during the secret realm trial, everything ends now. Killing you will fulfill my duty to the boss," Sun Fengyu said indifferently, swinging his staff down at Lin Chen.

"It’s over!"

Boom—

Just as everyone thought Lin Chen would surely die under Sun Fengyu’s staff, they saw Lin Chen actually block it with his arm, merely being pushed several steps back.

A staff mark appeared on Lin Chen’s arm, but within a few breaths, the marks visibly healed at an astonishing pace.

"How is this possible!?"

Sun Fengyu was dumbstruck.

After a brief moment of stupefaction, Sun Fengyu continued to swing his golden staff, attacking Lin Chen furiously.

The golden staff swung one after another, and the overpowering attacks did cause some injuries to Lin Chen, but the recovery speed of Lin Chen’s body was terrifyingly strong. In the blink of an eye, all injuries would heal.

To Lin Chen, however, Sun Fengyu’s attacks became a tool to temper his physique.

Before long, Lin Chen grew impatient, as his body’s resistance to the blows reached its peak, and Sun Fengyu’s attacks began to leave no mark on him at all.

"It seems your attacks are not powerful enough," Lin Chen stated lightly, then swung his fists, engaging in a direct, hard-fought battle with Sun Fengyu’s golden staff.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Sun Fengyu lay sprawled on the ground, his golden staff also shattered into several pieces on the ground.

In this fourth round of the competition, Lin Chen was again the victor.

If Lin Chen hadn’t been averse to killing, Sun Fengyu’s death would have been certain.

In fact, Lin Chen actually had Sun Fengyu to thank, for his Scorching Sun Divine Fist had stabilized under the assault of the latter’s golden staff.

You should know that Lin Chen had only recently broken through to the First Layer of the Heaven-reaching Realm and his Fiery Flame Divine Fist had also just achieved Great Success at the Fifth Level.

In the following sixth round of the competition, Lin Chen unexpectedly faced Hong Lan.

Confronted with Lin Chen, Hong Lan immediately conceded, as she was well aware of Lin Chen’s true strength.

Then in the Seventh Barrier, Lin Chen encountered Qiu Ya.

Thanks to Lin Chen’s hints during their time in the Enlightment Stone Forest, she had comprehended the Roaming Dragon Soul and used her Soul Power to become invincible, successfully making it into the top twenty.

However, facing Lin Chen, Qiu Ya had no confidence in securing a victory, and since Lin Chen had been kind to her, she too chose not to fight him and voluntarily admitted defeat.

And so, Lin Chen advanced to the top ten.

The surrounding crowd all complained about Lin Chen’s good fortune, and some even suspected there was something fishy going on, as Lin Chen had won two rounds without fighting.

Finally, the martial artists entering the top ten were Lin Chen, Chang Bai, Qin Kaifeng, Xia Wanxin, Heartless Monk, Deng Yu, Ouyang Xuan, Du Feiyu, Zhao Zhongchuan, and a dark horse who had suddenly emerged in the ranking competition, Tan Fei. In the earlier rounds, this person had kept a low profile and appeared to have hidden his true capabilities very well.

Among the ten, upon close inspection of their Cultivation, everyone was astonished.

For after the previous assessments, except for Lin Chen and Du Feiyu, the Cultivation of all other martial artists had actually broken through to the First Level of Reverting Void Realm.

This was the genuine Reverting Void Realm, not just the Half-Step Return to Void Realm.

There was no doubt, the ten who had triumphed and entered the top ten were all exceptional talents.

Of course, some martial artists were skeptical of Lin Chen’s aptitude and strength since, unlike others who had fought their way up one match at a time, Lin Chen had relied on magic treasures for victories in several battles and had won two fights without even battling.
