The battle between Su Yuan and Luo Shan came to an end.
The outcome of the battle was beyond everyone's expectations.
Su Yuan, with the force of a thunderbolt, easily defeated Luo Shan, leaving all the disciples present speechless in shock.
Su Yuan stood in the center of the arena, his expression calm.
As if the fierce battle just now had not consumed much of his energy.
His eyes swept across the surrounding disciples, and he asked, "Two more rounds, who's next?"
His voice was not loud, but it seemed to carry an invisible pressure.
It caused everyone present to involuntarily lower their heads, not daring to meet his gaze.
For a moment, the plaza fell silent, and no one dared to step forward to challenge him.
“I’ll try.”
At that moment, a thin man with a gloomy face slowly walked out from the crowd.
His steps were steady, and his eyes revealed a confident expression.
His voice was hoarse and low, but it carried an undeniable air of authority.
Everyone in the crowd looked at the man with awe.
This man was named Lin Gu, and he was notorious for his ruthlessness on White Bone Peak.
Many White Bone Peak disciples had been disciplined by him, and they both feared and hated him.
Lin Gu had already earned his qualification to go to the Blood煞 Cave.
Everyone speculated that he had come out this time to take this opportunity to teach Su Yuan a lesson and crush his momentum.
As White Bone Peak disciples, they naturally couldn't stand to see Su Yuan act so arrogantly, so they all tacitly remained silent.
Su Yuan looked at Lin Gu in front of him and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Good."
He could sense that Lin Gu exuded an aura of danger.
But he showed no sign of backing down, instead accepting the challenge calmly.
Senior Brother Ling ignored Lin Gu and looked at Su Yuan, "You can admit defeat if you can't win."
Su Yuan nodded.
Senior Brother Ling then looked at Lin Gu, "I said this was just a sparring match, don't let it harm the harmony between the same sect."
"Don't worry, I know my limits."
Lin Gu laughed, but his expression was casual, clearly not taking Senior Brother Ling's warning to heart.
"Begin!"
The moment the word fell!
The battle erupted instantly.
Lin Gu waved his hands, and several miniature bone puppets flew out from his sleeves.
After landing, the thumb-sized bone puppets instantly grew larger.
Each puppet emitted the aura of a mid-stage Qi Refinement cultivator.
Moreover, they cooperated seamlessly, advancing and retreating in an orderly manner, immediately surrounding Su Yuan and launching an attack.
Su Yuan flashed, dodging the attack of one puppet, and then punched another puppet.
His fist contained powerful force, and with a single punch, the puppet was instantly shattered.
However, before he could catch his breath, another puppet filled the gap and continued to attack him.
Su Yuan realized that these puppets were not only numerous but also incredibly difficult to deal with.
Every time he destroyed a puppet, the fragments were absorbed by the other puppets, making them stronger.
It was as if he wasn’t facing a group of puppets, but a single entity that could continuously evolve.
Su Yuan gradually found himself in a difficult situation, feeling like he was being swarmed by ants.
While these ants were not individually strong, their sheer numbers and coordinated teamwork made them a constant nuisance.
He had not sustained any injuries.
But his breath had begun to become irregular.
Sweat soaked through Su Yuan’s clothes.
But Su Yuan’s eyes remained resolute, showing no sign of giving up.
He knew he had one way to break the deadlock.
Su Yuan jumped towards an open space.
He created distance from the puppets.
He calmed his mind and stopped attacking.
Seeing Su Yuan standing still.
The others thought he was admitting defeat.
They all shook their heads.
"Su Yuan is doomed to lose now, Lin Gu's bone puppets are too powerful."
"Yeah, I didn't expect Lin Gu to be so strong, it seems Su Yuan has met his match this time."
Everyone was buzzing with comments, not holding out much hope for Su Yuan.
Su Yuan wasn’t giving up.
However, at this moment, Su Yuan seemed to enter a strange state.
He had only one thought in his mind, and that was to defeat his opponent in front of him.
Supported by this strong belief, he suddenly felt a subtle change in his mental state, as if an invisible shackle had been broken.
Senior Brother Ling, standing nearby, saw Su Yuan’s appearance.
His eyes widened slightly, filled with disbelief.
He thought to himself, “A breakthrough? As expected, the person the Elder brought here is not ordinary.”
At that moment, Su Yuan suddenly grasped the Illusionary Flash technique, which he had been unable to learn.
The next second.
His figure suddenly blurred.
Su Yuan instantly disappeared from his spot.
Lin Gu was terrified. He hadn't expected Su Yuan to possess such a technique.
He wanted to control the puppets to defend, but it was too late.
Su Yuan’s figure appeared in front of Lin Gu in an instant, and he struck out with a punch without hesitation.
Lin Gu had no time to dodge and was hit hard in the chest by the punch.
Lin Gu felt a tremendous force strike him, and his body flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground.
He struggled to get up, but he realized he was severely injured and couldn’t move.
He struggled for a few moments and fainted.
The puppets in the arena also lost control and returned to Lin Gu’s hands.
The entire plaza fell silent instantly, and everyone widened their eyes in disbelief at what they had witnessed.
They had originally thought that Su Yuan was bound to lose, but unexpectedly, he turned the tables in the face of defeat and even mastered such a powerful technique.
After a long while, a wave of exclamations erupted from the crowd.
"Amazing! Su Yuan actually defeated Lin Gu!"
"How is that possible? How did he do it?"
"Why didn't he use that instant-movement technique from the beginning, but only when he was forced to?"
"He must have been trying to lower Lin Gu's guard."
Everyone was buzzing with discussion, amazed by Su Yuan’s strength and talent.
"Kid, there's one more round!"
At this moment, another person stepped out from the crowd.
Seeing this person, others exclaimed, "It's Senior Brother Wang."
"Senior Brother Wang is a Foundation Establishment cultivator, Su Yuan is definitely going to lose."
Senior Brother Wang’s real name was Wang Xian.
He was a battle-hungry warrior who loved to fight.
Seeing Su Yuan consecutively defeat two Qi Refinement late-stage disciples, he couldn’t help but feel a tingle.
"Humph, let me try you."
Su Yuan looked at Wang Xian in front of him and his heart sank.
He could clearly feel the pressure Wang Xian exerted on him.
On top of that, the disciples around him had mentioned that Wang Xian was a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Su Yuan knew that a fight against him would definitely result in a loss.
Although Su Yuan had killed the Foundation Establishment cultivator, 魅灵仙子.
But that was due to a surprise attack and the fact that 魅灵仙子 was not in good condition.
Now, if he were to face him head-on, it would be difficult to win against a Foundation Establishment cultivator!
Of course, in a fair and open fight, Su Yuan couldn’t win.
But if he fought secretly, risking his life, Su Yuan wouldn’t fear him.
After all, many of his methods were not for public consumption.
After much deliberation, Su Yuan decided to admit defeat.
After all, it had been agreed beforehand that the best of three would decide the winner.
Now that Su Yuan had won two rounds, he had already gained the recognition of everyone.
"I admit defeat," Su Yuan said calmly.
Everyone was surprised to hear Su Yuan’s words.
They had thought that Su Yuan would continue to fight, but he had chosen to give up so readily.
Wang Xian was also slightly surprised as he looked at Su Yuan. He had expected a fierce battle, but his opponent had admitted defeat so easily.
Senior Brother Ling also asked, "Are you sure you want to admit defeat?"
"Yes."
Su Yuan nodded.
Senior Brother Ling furrowed his brows slightly. He felt that Su Yuan seemed a little mysterious, not like a simple person.
But since the other party had already admitted defeat, he couldn’t say anything else.
Senior Brother Ling said, "Alright, since you’ve admitted defeat, then the sparring match ends here."
Then, he turned to face the crowd and said loudly, "Through the sparring just now, everyone has seen Su Yuan’s strength.
He is qualified to participate in the Blood煞 Cave mission.
Now, no one has any objections, right?"
Everyone listened to Senior Brother Ling's words and also expressed that they had no objections.
Although they were a little unhappy about Su Yuan taking away a spot, they couldn't deny that his strength was indeed impressive.
