Lin Yun fell into deep thoughts. He naturally knew about Everluck, a monstrous genius nurtured by the Heavenly Qin Institution. On the other hand, Situ Yi was also one of them who forced him into the Yin Wind Stream back in the Azure Sun Ream, and his fame was at Bai Lixuan’s level a long time ago. So he had no idea how far Situ Yi had grown.
Situ Yi landed on the stage with his fan. He was donned in white with his long hair tied together. His presence was like a star who attracted many people’s attention. Many ladies were captivated by him, and his appearance wasn’t any weaker than Drifting Goblet.
“So girly,” commented Li Wuyou.
Xin Yan smiled, “Women aren’t as pretty as him. Junior Brother, do you think he can win? Back in the Princess’ Banquet, he had offered you a cup of wine. Although you guys were evenly matched back then, I don’t think his talent is any inferior than yours.”
Those words weren’t false, and Xin Yan had even exaggerated Lin Yun. Back in the Princess’ Banquet, Lin Yun was still weaker than Situ Yi. The latter clearly didn’t use all his strength since Lin Yun had just undergone a series of battles back then.
“I don’t believe that he can defeat a title just like Big Brother. Furthermore, Everluck is a lot stronger than Twilight,” replied Li Wuyou. Twilight might have a title, but he was ranked far behind Everluck.
“Let’s just watch,” said Lin Yun. He also glanced at Bai Lixuan. After all, Bai Lixuan had interacted with Situ Yi more than him, so Bai Lixuan should know more about Situ Yi’s strength. But he knew he would invite a snub if he went up and asked.
A figure descended on the stage. It was Everluck who wielded a spear. He introduced, “This spear’s name is Black Abyss, a transcendent profound artifact. It might not be a cosmic artifact, but it’s comparable to one. Brother Situ, watch out for it.”
Cosmic artifacts were forbidden in the competition, and he was rather frank to tell Situ Yi about it.
“It doesn’t matter. Everyone will only think that it’s normal for you to defeat me. So what weapon you’re using doesn’t really matter,” smiled Situ Yi.
“Sorry about that.” Everluck was more honest than everyone had imagined. He didn’t have any arrogance as a title, and he charged the instant he finished speaking. Like a comet, he arrived before Situ Yi in an instant, and his spear instantly enveloped Situ Yi in a great pressure.
Situ Yi smiled, and he waved his fan forth. But Everluck suddenly retracted his spear and stabbed it forth, which flew out from his hand like a dragon.
Raising his brow, Situ Yi avoided the stab. Although the stab missed, the noise produced from smashing it in the air was loud, and everyone could hear how powerful this attack was. But before all of Everluck’s power in the spear dissipated, he infused more origin energy in it and swung it around at Situ Yi.
“What a beautiful spear technique…” Lin Yun praised. Everluck’s spear technique might seem ordinary without any fancy tricks, but it made full use of his strength, and the next attack was stronger than the first. This way, the power in his spear would constantly overlap. The power was great, and he could crush his opponent with the momentum sooner or later.
After ten moves later, the pressure emitted from Everluck’s ordinary spear technique was close to the Violet Palace Realm’s level, and the pressure coming from it was suffocating. After another three moves later, the power in his spear reached an unbelievable level.
Seeing that it was impossible to avoid this attack, Situ Yi smiled. Just when the spear was about to hit him, he suddenly jumped and landed on the tip of the spear. This scene instantly drew many people’s exclamations because Situ Yi would be killed if he was any slower. But then again, it was foolish for Situ Yi to stand at the tip of the spear because he would still be dead if Everluck throws him off the spear.
But the next scene exceeded everyone’s expectations. With a faint smile of his lips, Situ Yi spread his arms apart and flew around on the tip of the spear, which made Everluck’s face change. He immediately retreated, and his wrist began to tremble violently.
Instantly, the spear felt like an erupting volcano. But Situ Yi was still wandering on the spear. No matter how Everluck tried to shake Situ Yi away, he was still continuing to advance forth.
“Get lost!” Everluck roared, and he yanked his spear upwards.
With that, Situ Yi had no other choice but to land on the ground. But before his feet touched the ground, he stabbed his fan forth like a sword at Everluck’s throat.
Facing his attack, Everluck had no change to his spear and he swung his spear ferociously before him. No matter how ferocious Situ Yi’s attacks were, he couldn’t break through Everluck’s defense. On the other hand, Everluck’s aura began to rise once more the more he swung his spear.
When Situ Yi saw that he wasn’t able to get through Everluck’s defense, he backed down after a series of ferocious attacks.
“Let’s end the playtime here,” said Everluck as he flung his sword out. At this moment, the power contained in his spear had reached a terrifying level, and even the entire stage was trembling along. When the spear streaked through the air, it drew sparks from how fast it was swung.
At the same time, the smile finally disappeared on Situ Yi’s face, and his expression became grave. “Heavenly Moon Reflection!”
Right at that moment, an illusion finally appeared. It was a lake that reflected a moon with a pavilion by the shore. That was naturally Situ Yi’s Martial Soul, and Lin Yun was shocked by it. After all, the owners of every Martial Soul capable of creating a phenomenon was a monstrous genius.
When the phenomenon appeared, Everluck’s spear finally slowed down, and Situ Yi flew onto the ethereal-looking pavilion. When the spear landed on the ground, it created a huge explosion on the lake. In reality, the tip of the spear was plunged into the ground with the body trembling.
However, Situ Yi looked elegant as he stood on top of the pavilion and he threw out his fan, stopping Situ Yi who tried to retrieve his spear.
Basking in the elegant moonlight, Situ Yi descended down from the pavilion and landed on the spear. The spear was trembling violently like an enraged dragon that even made the entire stage trembled. But when Situ Yi landed on it, the spear instantly calmed down.
Situ Yi waved his hand and summoned his fan back. Opening it back up to fan himself, Situ Yi spoke out, “Everluck, the victor has been decided.”
There was a wound on Everluck’s chest with blood constantly flowing out from it. The wound might seem dreadful, but it wasn’t deadly.
Everluck took a deep glance at Situ Yi, and he said, “Return me my spear. It doesn’t like to be stepped on.”
“Sure,” smiled Situ Yi as he flew down from the spear, and he fanned down with his fan. This blew the spear back into Everluck’s hand.
Everluck looked at his spear before looking at Situ Yi with reluctance. In the end, he turned to the judge, “I lost.”
He looked desolate with his spear, but no one paid any attention to him at this moment. Everyone’s attention was on Situ Yi, who had just defeated Everluck. They knew that another underdog had emerged.
