Two cleavers attacked from left and right, but Wan Rentu wasn’t intent on killing Lin Zhen; all he wanted was to force him back. As long as he could dodge this spear, he was confident that he could counterattack and achieve victory.

However, Lin Zhen didn’t move at all. Instead, his Seven Stars Knife flew out, turning into seven flashes of light, repeatedly striking the two cleavers approaching him.

A series of metal collision sounds rang out in the air, but Wan Rentu’s two cleavers failed to reach Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen’s spear continued to advance unwaveringly, his body surging with Star Power, hair fluttering, and veins bulging on his forehead. He was determined to go all out and kill Wan Rentu in a single strike!

Watching his cleavers fail to achieve their purpose, Wan Rentu stopped boasting about killing Lin Zhen in twenty seconds. At this point, he was already grateful for being able to last twenty seconds without being defeated by Lin Zhen.

“Wahaha! Lin Zhen, get back!”

A series of Mental Shocks violently bombarded Lin Zhen.

The two were close to each other, and Lin Zhen could clearly feel the fluctuations of the opponent’s Star Power. When Wan Rentu used his Mental Shock, Lin Zhen countered with a series of his own Mental Shocks, determined to fight back!

The invisible Mental Shocks caused ripples in the air, like stones thrown into water, spreading out in waves mixed with energy turbulence, signifying the intensity of this clash!

Time passed by one second at a time, and in the blink of an eye, seven or eight seconds went by, and the energy ball in Wan Rentu’s hand had been pierced until it was a thin layer!

In another three seconds, he would be defeated!

At this moment, Wan Rentu was filled with regret. He swore that if given another chance, he would never underestimate his opponent, allowing him such a great opportunity to attack.

Having not achieved anything with the Mental Shock, Wan Rentu used his last resort.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

Divine Infant’s Outburst!

The Divine Infant was a double-edged sword; it had immense power against enemies, but it was also vulnerable. Once the Divine Infant was injured, the Martial Artist would basically lose their ability to fight.

However, Wan Rentu had no choice at this moment. If he didn’t use the Divine Infant’s Outburst, he would be eliminated!

An entity appeared, half of it golden in color, and lunged at Lin Zhen!

“You’re so desperate now. Unfortunately for you, it’s over today!”

A flash of golden light, and Lin Zhen’s Divine Infant also burst out!

The two golden Divine Infants collided in mid-air. Normally, it wouldn’t be easy to determine the winner of a battle between Divine Infants of the same level. However, this time, the victor was decided in just a second!

Lin Zhen’s figure took on the same pose as Lin Zhen himself, with the spear in his hand aimed at Wan Rentu’s Divine Infant’s chest!

Both his own body and his Divine Infant’s battle put Wan Rentu in a precarious position!

He and his Divine Infant simultaneously let out a despairing and unwilling howl, but no matter what methods they tried, they couldn’t deal with Lin Zhen. They had no more chances!

Just as Lin Zhen was about to thrust his spear into Wan Rentu’s chest, a sudden feeling of danger rose in his heart!

A tremendous sense of crisis struck, and Lin Zhen immediately withdrew his Divine Infant!

A Sword Gang slashed through the spot where Lin Zhen’s Divine Infant had just been, and if not for his retreat, his Divine Infant might have been cut down by that invisible Slash Qi!

Chen Tianpeng appeared behind Wan Rentu, pointing at several spots in the void with his finger, each time summoning a flying sword that charged at Lin Zhen with a howling buzz!

“You insolent junior, how dare you act so wild in front of this old man!”

An expert’s move could be readily discerned, and in the face of the top-ranked Chen Tianpeng’s attack, Lin Zhen quickly retreated, wielding his Yin-Yang Spear and creating a mountain-like screen of spear shadows in front of him.

Immovable like a mountain!

Up, down, left, and right, the sky and the earth were instantly enveloped by torrential Sword Qi. Countless flying swords weaved around like Flood Dragons, seeking Lin Zhen’s weaknesses, attempting to deliver a fatal blow to him!

However, Wan Rentu took two steps back and actually sat down on the ground, sweat pouring down his forehead in big droplets.

That moment just now made him feel as if he had stepped through the gates of death and come back. If Chen Tianpeng hadn’t stepped in, he would’ve certainly been eliminated by Lin Zhen.

Seeing Lin Zhen being suppressed by Chen Tianpeng’s storm-like sword rain, Wan Rentu’s face flushed, feeling humiliated in front of the many other Martial Artists.

If he couldn’t turn the tables, people would say that his third place in the Combat Zone was undeserved.

With a howl, the two cleavers came back to his hands, and he charged at Lin Zhen like a ferocious tiger!

“Lin Zhen! I was caught off guard just now! Lemme show you how powerful I really am!”

Lin Zhen was already struggling with Chen Tianpeng’s nonstop flying sword attacks, and with the addition of Wan Rentu, he knew that nothing good would come out of today’s situation.

First, he hadn’t expected there to be two opponents, and second, he hadn’t expected Chen Tianpeng’s strength to be so formidable. Although Lin Zhen still had a trump card, it was apparent that Chen Tianpeng hadn’t used all of his strength.

As long as green hills remain, there will always be wood to burn – it was time to retreat!

After breaking through several of Chen Tianpeng’s flying swords, Lin Zhen swallowed a Divine Power Pill.

“Ha!”

Mountain-shaking Spear Technique!

His 7,000,000 Star Power once again rose by 40%, surging instantaneously to 9,800,000. With a single strike, he hit the charging Wan Rentu!

Wan Rentu’s huge body was directly sent flying by Lin Zhen’s spear, crashing into the wall of the swimming hall, leaving a large hole!

“What a pity! Still failed to take down this old man!”

Lin Zhen twirled his spear, seizing the opportunity of the surge in Star Power to once again knock Chen Tianpeng’s sword away and then quickly retreated!

Chen Tianpeng had not expected Lin Zhen’s strength to increase once again. His dozen or so flying swords failed to hold Lin Zhen back, and Lin Zhen forcibly killed his way out through a bloody path and fled!

Chen Tianpeng did not chase after him; instead, he calmly raised both of his hands, and all the rotating flying swords returned to their respective positions.

“Lin Zhen! This is just a lesson for you. If you dare to act recklessly again, I’ll definitely kill you!”

The onlookers didn’t even dare to breathe as they witnessed the scene. At this point, people also discovered that Chen Tianpeng was actually a Martial Artist without legs!

The part below his knees had been neatly cut off!

Having severed limbs for a Martial Artist is not a big deal, as many regenerative medicines can help them recover. However, no one knew why Chen Tianpeng hadn’t restored his legs.

Even so, no one dared to make a move against him. The four thousand nine hundred flying swords around him constantly reminded them of the horrifying existence that this disabled man without legs was.

People began to quickly leave the swimming pool.

Only after everyone left did Wan Rentu, his face full of shame, crawl into the large hole.

“Brother… I’ve disgraced you.”

“No matter, one learns by making mistakes. Your initial loss was caused by your arrogance. In the end, Lin Zhen relied on the power of medicine to defeat you. He won’t have such an opportunity next time.”

“Yes, I understand. I will definitely practice diligently.”

“Good! Don’t dwell on the present. It’s the opening of the border that is our stage. Lin Zhen will be no different from ordinary people when that time comes. You will have a chance to defeat him.”

“I understand, Brother. Let me carry you for a walk.”

“Fine, let’s stretch our muscles.”

Chen Tianpeng clapped his hands and leaped onto Wan Rentu’s back before slowly walking around inside the pool hall.

“Today’s failure will serve as motivation for future victory. Just like my legs, I would rather never recover them than not defeat that person…”

Wan Rentu was secretly amazed. He never thought that someone could defeat Chen Tianpeng, whom he regarded as a god in his heart.

********

Lin Zhen broke through the wall of the swimming pool and rushed out. As soon as he stepped outside, he staggered.

Just moments ago, he was holding his breath to withstand the attacks of Chen Tianpeng and Wan Rentu. It almost caused him an internal injury. Especially with Chen Tianpeng’s flying swords, if Lin Zhen hadn’t taken the Divine Power Pills, he might have been eliminated.

“That was close! I underestimated the strength of the first-ranked warrior in the battle zone. Fortunately, my loss doesn’t look too bad. It’s better to return to practice and try again.”

Just as Lin Zhen was about to return to the convenience store, someone suddenly blocked his path.

“Lin Zhen! Do you think you can just walk away after losing to the people inside?”

Lin Zhen recognized the person as Zhou Xinghai, ranked fifth in the battle zone.

Lin Zhen never expected that Zhou Xinghai would suddenly intercept him. However, his intentions were clear. First, he wanted to take advantage of Lin Zhen’s defeat. Second, since Lin Zhen was ranked sixth, eliminating him would make Zhou Xinghai the fourth. He would even have a chance to surpass Wan Rentu and become the third-ranked warrior.

But for people like him, Lin Zhen had no liking. Lin Zhen was in his peak state thanks to the combination of Star Energy Transfer and Divine Power Pills. Even if Chen Tianpeng appeared, he would be confident in escaping.

Now was the perfect time to vent his anger.

“What do you want?”

“Hehe! You know full well, Lin Zhen. Your arrogant days are over!”

Seeing Lin Zhen charging out in defeat, Zhou Xinghai didn’t take him seriously, drawing his sword, ready to attack.

Boom~!

Lin Zhen used the same move against Zhou Xinghai that he had used on Wan Rentu.

Wherever Lin Zhen’s spear pointed, everything was wiped out!

Zhou Xinghai only managed to swing out one sword, but it didn’t block Lin Zhen’s spear. He was pierced through the chest by the spear!

“This… you’re only ranked sixth… This is not… impossible!”

A green light appeared, restoring his dying body, enveloping him, and removing him from the Divine Punishment Star.

The fifth-ranked martial artist was killed by the sixth-ranked person with a single spear thrust, not even having the strength to fight back!

After eliminating Zhou Xinghai, Lin Zhen’s points exceeded ninety thousand, and he once again returned to the fourth position. This time, it would be more difficult for others to shake his rank!

Even the gap with Wan Rentu wasn’t that large.

Not putting this incident to heart, Lin Zhen took advantage of the remaining effects of the Divine Power Pills and quickly left the swimming pool.

There were still thirty-one days before the border opening. Lin Zhen absolutely couldn’t let any accidents happen before then. He had to find a safe place.

Looking back at the swimming pool, Lin Zhen silently turned and sped away.

Chen Tianpeng, Wan Rentu, the matter today is not over yet!
