The Winged Tiger grew in size as Yao Mu channeled more Qi. Meanwhile, the Smelly Slime changes its color into a bright crimson when Sun Hua Qiang did the same.
Their joint attack became fiercer with each of their strikes and altered the ground. Boulders unearthed from its root, the soil which Smelly Slime had stepped on it turned into a pool of goey poison.
However, Ling Zhao's immaculate movement was far too superior for these undertrained students. They might have powerful Martial Spirits, but their control was still mediocre at best.
Swerving through the fray, Ling Zhao unleashed his first movement of Heaven Defying Spear: Thunderclap.
He sent hundreds of lightning bolts from the tip of his spears, destroying any materials in its path, the Smelly Lime was caught off guard by the lightning strikes, paralyzing the big, grey monstrosity in place.
On top of that, Ling Zhao also used his Blood Spear which had been blessed by two Martial Spirits, with the power of Infernal Flame and the Wind of Four Winged Eagle, he leaped high, throwing the fiery Blood Spear with his innate skill—Starfall Strike—from above. The fiery inferno trailed behind its path for hundreds of meters like a comet.
Kaboom!
The thunderous sounds reverberated as the Blood Spear landed on its target, and the Smelly Slime evaporated into mere particles.
Sun Hua Qiang vomited a mouthful of blood due to the backlash and was forced to retire from the tournament.
Yao Mu was oppressed by Ling Zhao's sheer domineering aura, he thought a Level 10 Soul Aptitude was nothing but just a thing to boast someone's power level. However, he had witnessed such talent he would never have imagined before.
'Ling Zhao is only six years old, he's four years younger than me! But he could control three Martial Elements at once!'
On the other hand, Yao Mu's Winged Tiger was trembling in fear, terrified after witnessing such powerful Battle Skills that were performed by Ling Zhao one after another. Even the Martial Spirit Beast knew that Yao Mu was no match for Ling Tian.
Meanwhile, after assessing the fight for quite some time, Jiang Feng was displeased by Yao Mu's poor performance. The youngest prince lashed forward, knocking both Yao Mu and his Martial Spirit Beast in one swipe of the Heavenly Golden Dragon.
The latter was heavily injured and barely holding his breath after getting struck.
"Prince Jiang Feng! Please give me another chance!" Pleaded Yao Mu, holding out his hands as if begging for mercy.
"You useless swain!"
Slash!
With just a simple swing of an arm, Yao Mu's head was snatched from its shoulder by Jiang Feng's Martial Spirit Beast.
Fortunately, everything that happened in the Dome of Illusions was akin to a dream. However, the experience was so real and Yao Mu's soul had been broken when returned to his body.
Ling Zhao, however, didn't even flinch when he saw such goriness in front of him. He had seen something worse before.
"Ling Zhao!" The youngest prince shouted out loud. "If you are unwilling to become my subordinates, I am sorry that I have to kill you. I can't afford such defiant running free in my kingdom!"
Since everything that happened in the Dome Of Illusion could be seen from the outside world, Prince Jiang Feng did a hand sign in the air, telling his subordinates on the outside to execute his order to assassinate Ling Zhao at his command.
Ling Zhao felt the chill running down his spine as a cold gaze targeted his real body. He couldn't tell who it was or how many people targeted him, but he was certain they were hiding amongst the onlookers.
"Hmph! As expected from a Level 10 Soul Aptitude, you sensed their killing intent, right? Now yield before me, or die in vain!"
Ling Zhao sneered, and said this in a sarcastic tone: "As expected from the weakest and the youngest prince of this kingdom, using the underhanded method to get rid of his enemy. Very commendable indeed."
"There is no such thing as underhanded methods. The result is what matters the most!"
Ling Zhao curled his nose after hearing the prince's response, he was furious being played by a kid who was measly in his puberty like Jiang Feng.
'I must kill this despicable brat before he becomes a nuisance in the future!' Thought Ling Zhao.
Ling Zhao lowered his spears, studying Jiang Feng's micro behavior. He was aware that Jiang Feng was stressed by the burden to become eligible to partake in the Kowloon Kingdom's throne succession.
Jiang Feng's eyes show signs of anxiety, terrified, and desperate for validation from other people.
Ling Zhao's aware There would be no merits even if he defeats Prince Jiang Feng inside the Dome of Illusions. Killed by a blade on his back would be a disgrace that he couldn't afford. Nothing matters when his pride and dignity were on the line.
"I surrender!" Ling Zhao unexpectedly declared. He then glared at the prince and said, "See you on the other side. I will give you a lesson, the true horror of death!"
"What? Wait a minute, that's not fair! I am surrendering too! I will kill this bastard myself!"
The naive prince didn't see this coming, he thought everything would go as he pleased.
And thus, Fang Zheng permitted Ling Zhao and Jiang Feng to exit the Dome of Illusion per Fang Zheng's approval. The Dean also despised Jiang Feng's arrogance and wanted him dead also.
As Ling Zhao's soul returned to his body, Fang Zheng gave him a simple nod as approval to kill Jiang Feng and he would cover everything from the ground up.
Wasting no time, Ling Zhao unleashed his wrath upon Jiang Feng who barely awakened his consciousness upon returning from the Dome of Illusion.
"Jiang Feng!"
He dashed to Jiang Feng's location with terrifying speed that shouldn't be possessed by a mere six years old young boy.
Meanwhile, the hired assassins joined the fray, chasing Ling Zhao from behind, and forgot that the young boy also has a powerful background and was even more terrifying than Prince Jiang Feng's forces.
The Elite Warriors of Zhao Sect entered the fray, followed by a Sky Realm disciple from Ice Mountain's Sect, especially deployed by Kwan Xi Yin to ensure Ling Zhao's safety.
The onlookers gasped in silence as two powerful forces were about to clash!
