460: Chapter 459: Azure Dragon’s New Star 460: Chapter 459: Azure Dragon’s New Star Lin Xuan marveled as he discovered that the cold and austere young man from the Xie Family was even more terrifyingly powerful than Yun Feng.
Indeed, the Azure Dragon Society was remarkable, capable of gathering all the talents from the Tian Nan Domain in one place!
Lin Xuan was thrilled in his heart.
Under normal circumstances, he would have found it difficult to encounter such masters, but the Azure Dragon Society had given him this opportunity.
Here, he was able to witness a variety of swordsmanship.
It was of tremendous help to his growth.
Moreover, he knew that whether it was the swordsman from the Xie Family or Yun Feng, they had definitely reserved a large part of their strength.
Moreover, it was very likely that both had comprehended Sword Intent, or other Mental Realms.
It was just that Lin Xuan had not crossed swords with them and was unable to ascertain their strength.
“I really hope I can have a fight with these genius swordsmen!”
The competition proceeded quickly, and in the blink of an eye, Lin Xuan had already participated in four battles.
He had won all four of these fights.
His Bronze Battle Armor now bore four strands of silver aura.
He believed that it wouldn’t be long before his Bronze Battle Clothes turned into Silver Armor.
In Arena Number Three, every attack Prince Tianhuo made was a move that defeated his opponent.
Lei Zhen, Yue Yan, and the others also won easily.
Zhao Kuang was unlucky and had been injured earlier, so he only achieved a record of one win and three losses.
Hua Fei had two wins and two losses.
However, she was still young, and this result was already very good for her.
At this moment, Lin Xuan took the stage again, and his opponent was also a martial artist who had won all four battles.
This was a young man with bronze-colored skin; his muscles bulged like that of a mighty dragon.
In his previous fights, he had endured his opponents’ attacks and then beat them with a single punch.
It could be said that he was a very formidable martial artist, especially in terms of his defensive ability.
At this moment, the young man Yuan Shan looked at Lin Xuan and revealed an arrogant smile.
“Good, by defeating you, my Bronze Battle Clothes will turn into Silver Battle Armor!”
The surrounding crowd discussed among themselves; both Lin Xuan and Yuan Shan were rising talents, and both had four strands of silver aura on them.
Whoever won one more fight would be able to turn their outfit into Silver Armor.
“I think Yuan Shan has a higher chance of victory, after all, his terrifying defense is unmatched.”
“It’s very likely that Lin Xuan won’t be able to break through his defense.”
“Yes, even that Spirit Transformation Realm martial artist couldn’t breach Yuan Shan’s defenses, that guy is truly freakish!”
Everyone discussed fervently.
Even though Lin Xuan had performed very impressively, against the incredible defense of Yuan Shan, Lin Xuan’s abnormal speed and ferocious thunder seemed to have met their nemesis.
“Kid, let me tell you, your moves are useless against me!”
“Neither speed nor thunder can break through my defense!”
Yuan Shan was very confident; his body radiated a yellow glow, and three shield-like phantoms rapidly rotated around him.
Moreover, a layer of ancient yellow radiance appeared on his skin, shining with the metallic luster of Vajra.
“Whether it can be broken or not, we’ll know after we try!” Lin Xuan said in a deep voice.
He swung his arm, and a vast Thunder Sword Qi thundered down.
Thunder Light burst forth, and the Thunder Sword Qi struck Yuan Shan’s defenses, creating a sea of thunder golden light.
However, the fearsome thunder only managed to push Yuan Shan back, without breaking through the three defensive shields rotating in front of him.
“Ha ha, you can’t even break through my first layer of defense, you’re definitely going to lose!” Yuan Shan laughed loudly.
“Just as expected, Lin Xuan has been restrained.”
“It’s no wonder, not only him, even a middle-stage Spirit Transformation Realm martial artist might not be able to breakthrough Yuan Shan’s defenses.”
The people conversed, all believing that Lin Xuan was set to lose.
The Thunder Sect Disciples looked towards the arena, full of scorn: “It seems we don’t need to take action ourselves; someone else can take care of that guy!”
Disciples from the Illusion Moon Sect also sneered: “He can’t even wear Silver Armor, and he expects to pursue Sister Zhao Xue?
What a delusional dream!”
Yet, Lin Xuan merely smiled indifferently—indeed, he was more resilient than he had imagined.
With a flick of his finger, he quickly drew the black sword sheath.
Grasping the Star Extreme Sword, Lin Xuan’s aura instantly turned sharp.
“What, he’s a swordsman!” The crowd exclaimed in surprise.
So what if he takes out a weapon!
He still can’t break through my defense!” Yuan Shan scoffed.
He once again reinforced his defense, then slapped out with his palm.
As a martial artist from the Body Refinement tradition, Yuan Shan’s defense was outstanding, and his attack was even more terrifying.
His bronze-colored fist quickly grew larger, rushing towards Lin Xuan like a small mountain.
“Three Thousand Thunders Move!”
The Star Extreme Sword left the sheath, creating a terrifying trail of thunder light in the air.
Silver thunder surged forward, cleaving towards Yuan Shan.
Under the shocked gazes of the crowd, Yuan Shan’s defensive shield instantly shattered, and even his skin, tough as Vajra, bore a crimson sword mark.
Yuan Shan’s body was sent flying backward.
Sword returned to sheath, Lin Xuan stood proudly with his black hair fluttering.
“What a violent swordsmanship!” The crowd was astounded.
That slash had no flair, it was purely the power of thunder that had torn through Yuan Shan’s defense.
Such swordsmanship was nothing short of terrifying!
At this moment, the disciples from the Yun Clan, Thunder Sect, and Illusion Moon Sect were all looking at Lin Xuan.
Their eyes were filled with deep hostility and gravity.
Especially the Yun Family, who were astonished by Lin Xuan’s display of two completely different styles of swordsmanship.
It was well known that it’s very hard to change a swordsman’s style.
Lin Xuan’s eyes narrowed slightly as he felt some kind of change happening to the Bronze Battle Armor on his body.
Indeed, when that True Dragon Qi once again entered the Bronze Battle Armor, it emitted a silver glow.
“Silver Battle Armor, achieved!” Lin Xuan was thrilled.
He had finally ascended from the most basic Bronze Battle Armor to the Silver Battle Armor level.
With his current True Dragon Qi, Lin Xuan estimated that he should have entered the top two hundred by now.
Lin Xuan’s performance had stunned many, but this was merely the beginning.
Afterwards, Lin Xuan continued his winning streak.
Five consecutive victories, six consecutive victories, all the way to ten!
With ten battles and ten wins, Lin Xuan became a dazzling new star.
On him, the Silver Battle Armor had already gathered two streaks of golden light, like two little golden dragons meandering around.
Such results stunned everyone.
One must know, all the people present were geniuses in their own right, and to achieve ten consecutive victories in such a competition of geniuses was exceedingly rare.
Only exceptionally powerful newcomers could achieve such striking results.
Without a doubt, in the eyes of the public, Lin Xuan had already become a formidable entity.
Not just him, other powerful newcomers were also emerging on the other three arenas.
On the first arena, Leng Yidao’s aura was sharp, his sword light piercing the heavens, achieving ten consecutive wins.
That chilling Sword Intent made one’s heart tremble.
Zhao Xue, dressed in white like a floating fairy, bewildered her opponents with a single glance in each fight, plunging them into an endless Illusion Realm.
To this day, she remained undefeated.
Dongfang Xiong, like an Ancient Fierce Beast, suppressed his opponents with savage force.
Moreover, he grew more valiant with each fight, and his strength soared rapidly in battle.
These were the newcomers Lin Xuan knew, but there were also many other unparalleled geniuses that he did not know.
