Chapter 4051: Yuan Mo Yu’s Sudden Burst of Energy

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

‘However, the duo is aware of each other’s intentions so they’re very cautious. If this continues, do they think they’ll be able to find a breakthrough?’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as he shook his head.

It was clear to Duan Ling Tian that the duo was not completely confident facing each other. Strength was a huge source of confidence. However, in this case, where one was not sure if one was stronger than one’s opponent, it was only natural to lack confidence.

Since the duo had yet to reveal their full strength up until now, Duan Ling Tian could not judge who was stronger as well.

‘Tuo Ba Xiu clearly lacks confidence. Is it because the strength Yuan Mo Yu displayed now intimidates her or is it because she suspects he stillhas tricks up his sleeve? Based on Yuan Mo Yu’s previous fight with Yang Qian Ye, I don’t think he’s holding back much. Naturally, I can’t be sure that’s definitely the case…’

While the duo was locked in a stalemate, Duan Ling Tian shifted his attention to the two participants ahead of Yuan Mo Yu: Luo Yuan and Han Di. Han Di was ranked second while Luo Yuan was ranked third.

Duan Ling Tian had a brief fight with Han Di previously. They both agreed to strike once with all their might, and the weaker person would surrender. Han Di surrendered, and he also confirmed that Han Di was not a threat to him. It was unlikely that Han Di would challenge him again unless Han Di’s rank in the top three was confirmed.

…

After exchanging more than 100 moves, testing each other’s strength…

“When are they going to end the fight?”

Many people were growing impatient as Tuo Ba Xiu and Yuan Mo Yuan continued to drag the fight out.

There were also a few who were excited.

“It’s a test of patience now… It seems like they’re evenly matched.”

“Even so, I think they’ll find a way to end the fight properly instead of letting it end in a tie…”

“How annoying! If one person is stronger, he or she can easily end the fight…”

After two hundred moves…

Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow. ‘It seems like Yuan Mo Yu is losing his patience. He was doing well earlier, but it seems like he’s affected by the crowd’s words.’

Earlier, Duan Ling Tian had heard some people mocking Yuan Mo Yu, saying he was inferior to a woman. He did not think much of those comments. If it were true, then Yuan Mo Yu would not be the only one who was inferior to Tuo Ba Xiu. Those participants ranked below her were all inferior to her as well. Tuo Ba Xiu was the only woman who ranked in the top ten of the Seven Mansions Feast this time; she was naturally outstanding.

As time passed, Yuan Mo Yu grew more and more agitated. No one could say for sure if he was truly affected by the conversations in his surroundings.

At this time, a young disciple from the Pure Yang Sect said in a hushed voice, “I wonder if the people from the Underworld Mansion started the discussion. Tuo Ba Xiu is from the Yuwen clan, but in fact, she’s representing the top three forces in the Underworld Mansion. After all, all three forces gave them their resources. If she ranks in the top three, she’ll obtain at least three slots to enter the Secret Holy Realm.”

“I agree. The Underworld Mansion is trying to distract Yuan Mo Yu. If Tuo Ba Xiu fails to rank in the top three, the three top forces will be in a dilemma. How are they going to divide two slots between the three of them?”

“Well, it seems like Yuan Mo Yu has fallen into their trap…”

“Who knows? I’m sure someone from the Howling Heaven Sect will remind him about it…”

Duan Ling Tian instinctively glanced at the people from the Howling Heaven Sect upon hearing the discussion in his surroundings. He wondered inwardly, ‘His elders must have given him a reminder… Is he really affected by people’s words or is he just pretending?’

Duan Ling Tian had a feeling it was the latter. With Yuan Mo Yu’s achievements, it did not make sense for it to be so easy to provoke Yuan Mo Yu.

At this time, Yuan Mo Yu scoffed. Then, he activated his bloodline power as he flew toward Tuo Bao Xiu.

‘His strength now is comparable to what he had shown during his fight with Wanqi Hong. Is this really his limit?’ Duan Ling Tian wondered again.

Everyone’s eyes lit up when they saw Yuan Mo Yu finally making a move. They had long grown impatient, after all.

“It seems like Yuan Mo Yu wasn’t hiding his strength…”

“I agree. He should attack with all his might now. It doesn’t make sense for him to hold back. It seems like this is the extent of his strength.”

“Tuo Ba Xiu should have realized this as well. I wonder if she’s able to defeat herself.”

“Who knows? But I hope she is”

“I think she is. If she were weaker than him, she wouldn’t have lasted so long, right? The time to launch a surprise attack has long passed after all.”

“That’s right! If she were weaker, she would’ve long been defeated by Yuan Mo Yu!”

“Yuan Mo Yu let those provocative words get to him. It seems to me that Tuo Ba Xiu has a high chance of winning the fight.”

Tuo Ba Xiu’s eyes narrowed when Yuan Mo Yu drew close. Following that, a freezing energy swept out from her body. Soon enough, a thick wall of ice appeared in front of her.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of the duo’s collision rang thunderously.

Soon after, everyone watched as Yuan Mo Yu continued to charge forward with his prominent divine artifact in hand. It lit up like a flaming torch at this time. Suddenly, he cried out, “Break!”

As soon as Yuan Mo Yu’s voice, a hairline crack appeared on the wall of ice. Then, it began to spread like a spiderweb.

Swoosh!

At the same time, Tuo Ba Xiu released a cold sword ray before she vanished from her spot.

Upon seeing this, Duan Ling Tian narrowed his eyes. ‘Sword Dao?’

Ye Chen Feng, along with the other high-ranking officials from the various forces, was surprised as well.

“The Underworld Mansion’s Tuo Ba Xiu comprehended the rudimentary form of the Sword Dao?”

“I wonder if it’s luck or if she’s just talented?”

When Tuo Ba Xiu’s sword ray clashed with Yuan Mo Yu’s attack, her sword ray seemed to gain the upper hand.

With this, everyone thought the fight was going to end in Tuo Ba Xiu’s favor.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Unexpectedly, Yuan Mo Yu suddenly burst forth with energy. With this, he immediately turned the table.

“Yuan Mo Yu was still hiding his strength earlier!”

“Heavens! So he was holding back all this time?!”

“He could’ve easily suppressed Tuo Ba Xiu if he had just attacked with his full strength earlier, right?”

“Well, he was testing the water earlier. He had no idea how strong Tuo Ba Xiu was, after all.”

Duan Ling Tian was also rather shocked. Although he had speculated that Yuan Mo Yu was still holding back, he felt that Yuan Mo Yu was not holding back much.

At the same time, Wanqi Hong’s expression turned unsightly. ‘Damn it! He was holding back so much when we fought previously!’

After seeing Yuan Mo Yu’s strength now, Wanqi Hong knew he was no match for Yuan Mo Yu. Even if he could hold on for a moment, he would eventually be defeated. Nonetheless, anger was irrational. At this time, he felt insulted that Yuan Mo Yu held back when they fought but chose to unleash his full strength when fighting Tuo Ba Xiu.

Wanqi Hong had forgotten that he was ranked tenth now. When he challenged Yuan Mo Yu, who was ranked fourth, Yuan Mo Yu would still remain in fourth place after defeating him. As such, there was no need for him to waste so much energy if the outcome would be the same.
