"Maniac—Bloody Killing Fist!"
Blood Wolf, at the end of his strength, summoned his remaining power to unleash his most formidable attack. This was his final trump card!
In an instant, a rain of blood filled the air, making it seem as if Ling Feng had been plunged into the depths of hell where the wailing of ghosts and wolves echoed ceaselessly.
"A high-level mystical tier martial skill?"
Ling Feng sneered, "It looks like your secret art is about to wear off, meaning you can no longer help me temper my body. Keeping you around is pointless!"
With a sweep of his sword, Ling Feng met Blood Wolf's Bloody Killing Fist head-on.
Sword qi radiated from Ling Feng, forming a vast net of energy that protected him. Blood Wolf's Bloody Killing Fist collided with the sword qi net and was instantly annihilated.
Ling Feng remained unscathed!
"How is this possible?"
Blood Wolf's face turned ashen. He finally realized that this young man had been using him as a whetstone, honing his own physical strength while attacking.
But at that moment, Blood Wolf had no fight left in him. All that remained was anger and curses.
Ling Feng revealed a cruel smile. His Slaughterous Sword Will suddenly erupted, and the sword qi net before him shot out with his blade.
"Six Paths of Rise and Fall!"
As Ling Feng's sword pointed forward, the sword qi spread out like a storm of pear blossom needles, shooting towards Blood Wolf with relentless fury.
With a roar of unwillingness, Blood Wolf's chest was struck by wave after wave of sword qi.
The sword qi pierced through his chest, leaving a massive bloody hole. Blood splattered and sprayed into the air.
This murderous fiend glanced at his chest one last time, feeling all his strength and vitality drain away in an instant.
Blood Wolf collapsed, his breath completely cut off!
"Holy crap, Blood Wolf is dead?"
"What was that last move of his? Was that an earth-tier sword technique?"
"Looks like even those who grow up in greenhouses have some real tough characters!"
"Kid, that was brilliant! Hahaha..."
The audience in the Blood Arena didn't really care who won or lost. On this stage, as long as you were strong, you could win endless cheers and applause!
Ling Feng didn't bother searching Blood Wolf's body for loot. Instead, he and Xue Xiaolin returned to the contestants' area through the player tunnel. This brutal fight had proven quite beneficial for him.
After all, finding an eighth-level Transformation Realm expert as a sparring partner wasn’t something that happened every day.
Whether it was Yan Cangtian or Gu Tengfeng, despite their strength, they would never strike to kill. They would always hold back, unwilling to fully unleash their power against Ling Feng.
In the Blood Arena, however, every opponent was truly out for blood. Each fight was a deadly struggle, allowing Ling Feng to fully unleash his potential.
As soon as they returned to the rest area, Gu Tengfeng and the others applauded to welcome their victorious teammates back.
Ling Feng had won the fight beautifully. Even when the opponent suddenly used an evil secret art to boost his strength, Ling Feng still secured a solid victory.
"It was all Ling Feng's doing," Xue Xiaolin said with a playful smile. "I barely did anything to help."
"Sister Xiaolin, you're being too modest. Your support abilities helped me a lot in the beginning," Ling Feng replied with a faint smile. In small-scale skirmishes, the importance of a support teammate might not fully show, but in a clash between two powerful sword teams, the battle often came down to recovery abilities and strategic tactics.
"Alright, Bufan, you and the others should start preparing. I want to see you working with your teammates, not just recklessly charging in on your own!" Gu Tengfeng instructed.
Li Bufan took a deep breath, nodding silently.
After more than half a month of working together, this proud and aloof guy was finally starting to integrate into the team.
Throughout the day, Ling Feng fought three times. The first match was in a team with Xue Xiaolin, while the other two matches had their teams rearranged by Gu Tengfeng. This method allowed the team to understand each other's abilities in real combat, leading to better coordination during official matches by knowing each other's combat styles and techniques.
Everyone else also fought at least three times. Li Bufan, in particular, not only participated in the three team matches but also signed up for an individual fight, single-handedly defeating an eighth-level Transformation Realm prisoner.
It was clear that he was secretly competing with Ling Feng.
Everyone noticed this rivalry but chose not to mention it. By the end of the day, they were all utterly exhausted.
Compared to these life-and-death battles, their usual training seemed like child's play.
All the team members, except for Gu Tengfeng and the support role Xue Xiaolin, were nearly worn out.
"Boss, you're really ruthless!" Lin Mochen, covered in bandages and various wounds, remarked. The criminals in the Blood Arena, desperate to survive, truly fought without holding back.
Ye Nanfeng even got poisoned and nearly died. However, this incident highlighted Ling Feng's impressive medical skills. While Gu Tengfeng was frantically searching for an antidote, Ling Feng administered a few acupuncture treatments, and Ye Nanfeng was soon up and about again.
"None of you died, right?"
Gu Tengfeng laughed heartily, giving Ling Feng a few hearty pats on the shoulder. "I never imagined your medical skills to be so impressive. It looks like we can push the training even harder in the future. As long as we're half alive, you can save us."
Ling Feng's face darkened. This captain really knows how to "make the most of resources."
"You can't be serious..." Lin Mochen and the others groaned. Ye Nanfeng, having just had a brush with death, was particularly uneasy.
"I don't mind!" Li Bufan, surprisingly, spoke up with a look of eager anticipation.
This guy was a total battle maniac!
"You veterans should learn a thing or two from the newcomers!" Gu Tengfeng scoffed at the experienced members of the team before his expression turned serious. "From what I know, those guys in Central Court also frequently undergo similar training. They even venture into territories where the demon race is active, facing life-and-death situations.
"Even those with greater talent than us work this hard. What right do we have to waste time?"
"Those guys are real monsters!" Lin Mochen swallowed hard, clenching his fists. "Alright then, I'll risk my life for this!"
"No fear, just fight!"
"With Brother Feng's medical skills, dying would be a challenge!"
The group of youths exchanged determined smiles, their passion and spirit ready to be unleashed in the upcoming sword fighting competition between the five courts.
