Chapter 1145: Chapter 335: The Ghost Strikes! (2-in-1)
With its agility in the space system, it has more confidence in this fifth round.
“Jie!” (Leave it to me!)
Gui Gui had already learned the rules of this round’s competition through telepathy, and looked at the stone platforms in the void with full confidence.
Three minutes of preparation time is not considered long.
Soon, Xie Venerate’s voice appeared in everyone’s minds.
“Now counting down ten seconds, the fifth round begins.”
“Ten…”
“Nine…”
As the countdown progressed, the atmosphere on the field became increasingly tense.
“In a moment, we’ll act separately.” Qin Nan summoned the Fire Soul Spirit she hadn’t used before and quickly said, “Be careful, don’t get eliminated.”
“Don’t worry, Sister Nan.” Lin Su nodded slightly.
“Two…”
“One… Begin!”
With the start, figures swiftly headed towards the stone platforms in the sky.
Lin Su and Qin Nan did not move.
Or rather, at this moment, the vast majority of epic-level and monarch-level participants did not move.
Everyone was waiting.
Only when all the epic-level and emperor-level participants had chosen their stone platforms, one after the other, did the other contestants swiftly seize the remaining platforms.
If someone tried to take the lead, they might be targeted by the epic-level and emperor-level participants, resulting in a loss.
No one wanted to engage them at this point.
Even Lin Su was no exception.
After all, it’s just the preliminary stage, so it’s not wise to reveal too much strength.
With a flicker of motion, and with Gui Gui’s assistance, Lin Su stood on a stone platform, waving towards Gu Shumo, who was leisurely watching below, and then assessed the surroundings.
At this moment, as the stone platforms were being occupied, contestants had already started fighting each other for control.
On Lin Su’s side, there were also such contestants.
Two monarch-level beasts and a somewhat unfamiliar hall-level Beast Tamer were slightly slower, unable to seize any platforms, and began casting malicious glances around.
One of the monarch-level beasts thought no further and charged towards Lin Su’s stone platform.
It was a roc with radiant golden wings, wingspan exceeding fifteen meters, and terrifyingly fierce claws, all possessed enough deterrence.
Metal system low-level emperor species, Fierce Dragon Roc.
The other monarch-level beast and the hall-level Beast Tamer remained in place, their gaze directed towards Lin Su’s side.
They seemed to intend to gauge the strength of both sides through the impending battle to decide whether to challenge.
“Gui Gui, attack!”
Lin Su didn’t hesitate to speak.
At a time like this, to secure peace, one must defeat the opponent with a thunderous blow, showcasing their strength.
Otherwise, with constant challenges, even Gui Gui would eventually tire.
“Jie!” (Piece of cake!)
Seeing the monarch-level Fierce Dragon Roc ahead, Gui Gui flickered and appeared in front of it the next moment.
The cold eyes of the Fierce Dragon Roc contracted instantly, reacting swiftly, and the next moment a sharp claw launched fiercely towards Gui Gui!
In an instant, an overwhelming claw shadow nearly a hundred meters wide condensed from the void, stirring up winds and clouds!
Fierce Dragon Roc’s talent skill, Fierce Dragon Claw!
Seeing this strike, the expressions of the onlooking monarch-level beast and the hall-level Beast Tamer turned grim.
If they were to take this strike, they would easily suffer severe damage!
This Fierce Dragon Roc, though only a low-level emperor species, possessed formidable strength!
Even on the other stone platforms nearby, the contestants occupying them were startled, looking over with a hint of lingering fear.
Weighing themselves, they found they might not be able to withstand such a blow.
If this Fierce Dragon Roc was challenging not that young human Beast Tamer, but themselves, their hard-earned qualification might have to be given up.
However, in the next moment, everyone’s eyes widened.
Because in the face of the fierce attack from the Fierce Dragon Roc, Gui Gui struck!
The terrifying giant claw reaching out as if from the void, coalesced between reality and illusion, solidified in an instant, tearing fiercely towards the void’s claw print!
The next moment, as if hell descended, an ominous black claw shadow struck the Fierce Dragon Roc’s attack first and heavy.
Gui Gui’s talent skill, Shadow Ghost Claw!
The terrifying aura of obliteration on the claw shadow erupted upon collision, seemingly capable of annihilating all things!
The notoriously unstoppable claw shadow of the Fierce Dragon Roc shattered instantaneously.
The Fierce Dragon Roc, who had attacked Gui Gui, felt as if it had fallen into an icy abyss.
Seeing the rapidly approaching and immensely powerful claw shadow, seemingly unaffected by the previous clash, the Fierce Dragon Roc suddenly sensed a threat of death.
The next moment, the Fierce Dragon Roc felt a whirlwind spin, and in an instant, it was heavily slammed onto the seventh level of the heavenly stairs.
Lin Su, adhering to the rules prohibiting killing, had Gui Gui use Space Jump to forcibly relocate the foe back to its starting point after the intimidating show of force.
The Shadow Ghost Claw was simultaneously frozen mid-air, swiftly dissipating.
Once the strike landed, silence instantly fell around them.
Every gaze directed at Lin Su was filled with intense wariness.
Such powerful attacks, dissolved effortlessly.
This individual’s strength might not rival those epic-level and emperor-level participants, but on the hall-level and monarch-level, he was nearly invincible.
Not to be provoked!
Immediately, the contestants without platforms strategically avoided Lin Su and began challenging others for a spot.
Lin Su exhaled gently, casually sitting on his stone platform.
From now on, no one would be so unwise as to volunteer to challenge him, right?
…
[Maserati Z: Whoa, whoa, I just saw Lin God take action, a bit frightening, are all his beasts so strong?]
[Jiezhi: Just as expected from Lin God, I even feel this black beast is stronger than the previous Cold Universe Dream Spirit, is this an evolution of the Trick Master?]
[Chen Shi Feng Xin: One in time system, another in space system, the little loli partner who followed Lin God hasn’t shown full strength yet!]
[…]
In the Central Alliance livestream, the scene coincidentally shifted back to Lin Su’s position.
It’s not that the staff in charge of camera switches were biased, but the intelligent AI automatically selects scenes viewers most eagerly anticipate as broadcast material.
With epic-level and emperor-level participants having no chance to act, Lin Su, as an anomaly, became the focal point.
Seeing the youth sitting calmly on his platform, with none daring to challenge, a thought suddenly arose in everyone’s hearts.
Such circumstances were usually only afforded to epic-level and emperor-level participants.
What if this youth were to face off against those epic-level and emperor-level participants…
The anticipation in their hearts rose.
