Talented Martial Hero

Chapter 152 Who Won

When the level three bloodline force exploded from Kevin, his body emitted a green light and a cold

aura.

"Heavyset Body! Block!" he roared.

At the same time, Darren's mighty sword intent hit him.

The sharp clash of swords hitting his body echoed in the space. In the next instant, Darren's powerful

sword intent inundated Kevin. He felt as if he were in a world of swords, and no matter which direction

he turned in, numerous powerful swords were attacking him.

Kevin trembled with fear.

He was scared internally because the sword intent was too powerful and his body couldn't resist the

attack even though it had been consolidated with the level three bloodline force.

Blood saturated his robes as the swords left small wounds on his body.

"Resist!"

Kevin shouted. Darren's attack and his inability to defend against it efficiently, left Kevin anxious.

Although his strengthened body couldn't completely resist Darren's sword intent, it bought him time to

activate more bloodline force. After a few moments, his bloodline force upgraded to level four.

"Clink! Clink! Clink!"

The sound of swords hitting Kevin's stone-like body echoed in the quiet surroundings. After Kevin's

bloodline force increased to level four, his body became more solid and blocked Darren's sword intent.

Besides, his strength increased continuously, as well!

"Damn freak!" Kevin couldn't help cursing Darren after he survived the dangerous attack and recovered

his composure.

However, Darren had no intention of giving him time to breathe because he knew that Kevin's strength

would increase significantly if he used the skill to turn his body into a weapon.

"Cracking Attack!"

"Profound Nine Sword Skills!"

Darren executed his blade and sword simultaneously, which made his attacks more powerful than

when he only used the sword intent!

Below the battle platform, the faces of the three chiefs darkened as they had a grim sense of

foreboding. Even Landon, the Holy Lord of the Lightning Holy Land, who was sitting in the luxurious

chair above the battle platform, was shocked.

"He, indeed, cultivates both blade and sword martial arts."

"Practicing both the blade and sword simultaneously should have killed him. How did he survive? How

can he emanate such powerful strength?"

"The young man is unexpectedly powerful. When did such a great talent join the Lotus Holy Land?"

The chiefs of the three Ancient Families marveled simultaneously.

On the battle platform, just when Kevin felt relieved that the pressure from Darren had decreased a

little, a stronger attack which combined both the sword intent and blade intent hit him.

"Damn it! You are forcing me to execute my trump card. Level five Heavyset Body!"

Kevin bellowed as his face twisted in pain.

"Oh? He is about to turn his body into a weapon!" Seeing that Kevin had started transforming, Darren

dashed forward. He was so quick that the audience could only see a shadow flashing past.

"Wham!"

Just as Darren had reached halfway toward Kevin, a powerful thick black iron whip cracked on Darren's

back. The strength of the blow threw him backward in the air.

Blood glistened in the sun as a horrible wound was left on Darren's back!

Opposite him, a cold, black iron chain oscillated in the air, in perfect trajectory.

Kevin had turned himself into the black iron chain, a weapon, when he activated the level five bloodline

force.

"Its aura is so threatening!" Darren felt the pain from his injury course through his body as he stared at

the swaying black iron chain.

"Ding!"

Before Darren had time to react, the powerful chain unleashed a formidable ancient aura as it flew

toward Darren.

Darren summoned his blade and sword at the same time. They shot out like sharp arrows and tackled

the black whip.

Loud sounds, like explosions, were heard and the Lotus Battle Ring shook. The shock wave caused by

the collision between Darren and the black chain caused cracks to appear in the protective screen

between the audience and the fighters.

The sword core in Darren's body circulated crazily as it reached the peak of its power.

He cut the black iron chain with his blade and sword, one after the other, but it seemed that his attacks

didn't cause Kevin any severe injuries. On the contrary, it exerted pressure on Darren.

At this stage, Darren pondered whether or not to execute the Blood Dragon Illusion.

But he negated this idea as soon as it flashed across his mind. If he used the Talent Skill now, he would

definitely lose the next battle.

'Our strength is evenly matched. If I can be a little more powerful, I'll be able to defeat him!' Darren

thought.

"The bronze mask and the armor!" Darren didn't remember that the bronze mask and the armor could

increase his strength until this very moment.

Quickly, he used his mental power to summon them. The armor encased his body, and the bronze

mask covered his face.

At the moment, a black rune flashed on them and quickly disappeared. Darren felt that his strength had

increased by at least 50%.

When the competitors were evenly matched and found themselves in an impasse, the situation would

change even if a tiny bit of energy was added to one of them.

"It's time to see who will win!"

Darren summoned the blade and sword intent before charging toward the black chain.

At the same time, the black iron chain transformed by Kevin flew toward the sky and circled like a

dragon in mid-air before swooping down toward Darren.

"Rumble!" The whole square quaked!

They collided. Darren flew backward and hit the screen set on the edge of the platform. He spat out

blood and moaned in agony from his severe internal injuries.

The black iron chain was also pushed away after the collision. However, it stopped at the edge of the

battle platform.

Everyone was stunned at the scene and held their breath.

'Who won?'

Even those strongest warriors below the battle platform couldn't tell the result of the match.

Just then, the black iron chain gave out a green light before turning back into Kevin.

It appeared as though Kevin had sustained no severe wounds on his body. His messy hair was the only

sign that he had been in a battle.

"Kevin won?" The chief of the Ji Family exclaimed with excitement on his face.

"Ha-ha. Congratulations! This was a hard battle to win!"

The other two chiefs smiled as they too were glad for Kevin's victory.

On the other side, where the people from the Lotus Holy Land stood, both Lino and Colin gazed at

Darren with worry and tension. They felt as though they were going to lose the competition. 'Have we

lost?' They wondered.

"Darren..." Belle's eyes filled with tears when she saw that her brother had been injured.

"If you want to save him, carry him away from the platform quickly."

Unexpectedly, Daren stood up. He wiped away the blood around the corners of his mouth. Then he

climbed down from the battle platform. The audience was perplexed when they heard those words.

Everyone's mouth flew open as in the next instant, Kevin's eyes turned dull and expressionless. His

robes were tore into pieces and wounds spread over his body, like a cobweb. Blood gushed out, like an

overflowing river, and drenched the platform.

"Crack! Crack!"

The sound of bones breaking reverberated through the arena.

Kevin slipped down along the edge of the battle platform like a pile of flesh without bones.

"What!" roared the chief of the Ji Family. His eyes widened as he rushed toward Kevin. His face turned

red from the rage coursing through him.

"Kevin!"

He tried to scoop Kevin in his arms but failed as his nephew was like beast meat without bones.

All the bones in Kevin's body had been smashed into powder, just like he had described before the

battle began. Ironically, it was Kevin, not Darren, who had been defeated in such a gruesome manner.

"You did great!" Lino and Colin walked over excitedly and lifted Darren in celebration.

But Darren pushed their hands away. He was capable of standing steadily, though he had sustained

the internal injuries during the battle. He told Lino and Colin that he needed to rest and consume some Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

healing pills. Then, he would feel better.

"You were awesome. I never imagined that your ability to use the blade and sword simultaneously was

that powerful," Colin said with exhilaration.

Darren was at the third stage of the Mysterious Realm, but the strength he had shown was far beyond

the strength of a cultivator at the ninth stage of the Mysterious Realm.

"You destroyed Kevin. I'll kill you!" The chief of the Ji Family saw that Kevin, his nephew and the talent

of the young generation, was ruined on the platform. He went into a frenzy and attacked Darren.

"Don't be impetuous. We haven't lost the competition. The competitor from the Wei Family hasn't fought

him yet!"

"You need to calm down. We can't kill him before we get the Lotus."

The other two chiefs tried to persuade the chief of the Ji Family.

However, the chief of the Ji Family turned a deaf ear to them and ejected a big illusory palm before

directing it at Darren.

"Stop!"

A shout, as loud as thunder resounded in the space as green lightning hit the ground.

With a flash, Landon appeared under the big illusory palm unleashed by the chief of the Ji Family. With

a wave of his hand, Landon crushed the palm.

And the energy wave pushed the chief of the Ji Family backward.

"Your side lost this battle. You have to admit it. How dare you break the rules by trying to kill the

competitor! Aren't you ashamed of yourself? Have you forgotten that I am the judge?"

Everyone calmed down when they saw Landon's strength.

After he was thrown back by the energy wave, the chief of the Ji Family relaxed. Embarrassment

reflected in his expression, and he silently carried Kevin to the side of the Ancient Families.

"Chief Wei, order Bruce to kill that bastard. I'll give you whatever you want as the trade condition!" The

chief of the Ji Family secretly contacted the chief of the Wei Family with vicious intent.
