Chapter 592 Battle Against Long Xiao
After the first round of competition, the battle between Long Dao and Long Xin slowly came to an end. This situation was not unexpected, since everyone knew that Long Dao and Long Xin were not on the same level at all.
Even though Long Xin is somewhat famous, it's nothing compared to Long Dao.
"This battle is over. Longdao has successfully advanced. I'd like to ask you, are you prepared to end it here, or do you want to participate in the final battle? If you choose to end it here, you can conserve your energy for tomorrow's battle, and the reward will be thirty tokens."
The Turtle Prime Minister looked at the calm and collected Dragon Dao and spoke slowly.
"I choose to continue."
As expected, Long Dao chose to continue, which made the Turtle Prime Minister nod and say, "Alright, since you've chosen to continue, then wait until the second match is over before going up to the Dragon Platform." Hearing this, Long Dao nodded and then went down.
As the match ended, everyone's attention turned to Ye Ru and Long Xiao in the stands.
Their expressions varied, and their gazes toward Ye Ru held a hint of pity.
Long Xiao's talent and dragon strength are among the best. Although he can't beat Long Dao, he is a very strong opponent.
Ye Ru and the others knew that he was just an ordinary human scholar, or even a human scholar who had not yet passed the imperial examination.
In the previous literary duel, the opponent benefited from the advantage of literature, but this time, it's a real duel, so no matter what, the opponent can't possibly defeat Long Xiao.
Because they are merely mortals, unlike ordinary people, they possess literary talent and can mobilize the energy of heaven and earth to kill enemies.
However, the dragon power possessed by the dragon race is far stronger than theirs.
"Let's go. I'm looking forward to our fight. I hope you won't let me down."
"If you choose to quit here, it's no big deal. I won't look down on you for your cowardly behavior. After all, you are human, not my dragon."
Long Xiao smiled slightly at Ye Ru, but the smile felt a little harsh.
"There's no need to say more. You know I'm human, but do you know a saying of our race?"
"What?"
"Being poor doesn't mean being lowly; this saying applies not only to the poor but also to me."
"So I am not fighting for the dragons now, but more for our human race."
Ye Ru shrugged, showing no fear, and instead walked calmly toward the dragon platform.
"It's really funny. What's the point of saying all this if we lose?"
Long Xiao smiled disdainfully, his smile full of contempt.
He is very confident in his talent, so he cannot and will not lose here.
Then, he leaped onto the dragon platform, and the atmosphere that had been heavy due to the end of the previous match gradually became tense again.
"You have one more chance now. Once this opportunity is gone, it will be gone forever."
Seemingly not wanting to hurt Ye Ru, or perhaps because what the other party had said earlier had touched him, Long Xiao took two steps forward, a playful look on his face, and said.
Ye Ru ignored him, but instead gripped the Three Absolute Literary Heart Brush tightly in his hand. As the Netherfire rose, the temperature in the area increased. Ye Ru was showing Long Xiao through his actions that he would never admit defeat.
"Hmph, it's nothing but amateurish skills."
Long Dao crossed his arms, looking down at the two men who were locked in a tense standoff, as if he were a king ruling the world. After a moment, he uttered a few words indifferently.
"The fight is finally about to begin. I don't think that young human will be able to defeat Long Xiao so easily."
"What a joke. I don't think he can even withstand a single blow from Long Xiao. This match is really boring; it's practically a fight between an adult and a child."
"That's not how it works. Ye Ru won the first match, so there might still be some hope for the second match."
Many people watched Ye Ru and Long Xiao, who were on the verge of exchanging blows, and started discussing among themselves.
"Alright, since you refuse to admit defeat, then I'll have no choice but to defeat you. I hope you won't hold a grudge against me for it."
Long Xiao took a deep breath, then shrugged, and finally took out a trident.
The trident was completely covered in dragon scales, making it look quite strange.
The dragon power emanating from it made Ye Ru somewhat solemn.
"watch out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Long Xiao stomped his foot hard, and his figure transformed into a streak of black light, rushing directly towards Ye Ru.
Seeing this, Ye Ru frowned, his pupils reflecting the ever-growing shadow. He took a light step to the left with his left foot, and thrust the Three Absolutes Literary Heart Brush in his hand directly forward.
As the Three Absolutes Literary Heart Brush pierced out, a burst of Netherfire erupted, eventually transforming into a line of fire that tightly bound the trident.
"break!"
Long Xiao's face turned cold, and he thrust his trident upwards fiercely, causing the entire Netherfire to burn on the ground.
"These flames can even set this dragon platform ablaze?"
Upon seeing this, the Dragon King of the North Sea stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief.
This dragon platform was made using crystals unique to the Dragon Palace, making it indestructible. But now it's burning here. They can't even imagine what the consequences would be if these flames touched them.
"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a kind of Netherfire from the demon race. But how could this kind of Netherfire be on a human?"
The Dragon King of the South Sea looked at him with a strange expression, and a few questions appeared on his face.
If a human were to come into contact with this Netherfire, they would probably die within a second. But now it seems that the other party has mastered so much Netherfire and is completely unharmed, which puzzles him greatly.
The reason Ye Ru was able to control so much Netherfire was because of the Three Absolute Literary Heart Brush in his possession.
The other party had no understanding of the characteristics of the Three Perfections Literary Brush, and naturally did not know Ye Ru's methods.
Looking at the blazing flames around him, Long Xiao suddenly became somewhat serious.
Now he also understands that Ye Ru had something to rely on to dare to confront him head-on.
"No matter what methods you use, here, we dragons are the emperors!"
After a moment, Long Xiao closed his eyes, and scales began to grow continuously from his body, eventually covering his entire body.
As the dragon scales covered him, an astonishing dragon power began to emanate from all directions, and the ghostly flames extinguished automatically upon touching his body.
"This is the dragon armor of my dragon clan, which is even more indestructible than the crystal stone beneath my feet. So this flame is useless against me. Bring out all your other tricks."
With a stomp of his trident, Long Xiao's eyes gleamed with golden light. The next moment, he charged out again, his target Ye Ru's head.
Sensing the fierce gust of wind, Ye Ru's eyes also turned cold and sharp. The Sacred Ancient Tree within his body emerged, transforming into an extremely strong defense. The Three Absolute Writing Brush in his hand clashed fiercely with the trident in Long Xiao's hand.
boom!
A loud thud resounded, and Ye Ru felt the immense force emanating from the Long Xiao weapon, causing his expression to change.
The Sacred Ancient Tree had neutralized so much of his power, yet it could still transmit such immense power to him.
Not only Ye Ru, but even Long Xiao felt a sense of unease creeping into his heart.
He praised the defensive power of Ye Ru's sacred ancient tree.
"Even though you have such strong defense, it's just a tortoise shell. Watch how I break through it!"
With a roar in his heart, Long Xiao poured all his strength into his arm, and the force burst forth as it hit the Sacred Ancient Tree!
boom!
An even stronger force surged through him, causing Ye Ru's face to turn pale and his body to stagger backward dozens of steps.
He then stomped his foot, dissipating the force, and his eyes gradually turned cold, like a blade.
If things continue like this, I'm bound to lose, so I need to take the situation seriously from here on out.
"What? You scholars should use poetry and prose to attack others, shouldn't you?"
Long Xiao raised his numb arm and said slowly.
His previous attacks had used nearly 90% of his strength, yet he hadn't managed to injure his opponent, only forcing him back a few steps.
This made him feel extremely heavy-hearted.
"How is that possible? You have to know that Long Xiao's strength is much greater than that of an ordinary person, and he also has some human talent. Yet he was not injured, and was only forced to retreat."
With a hint of shock in his eyes, Long Dao lowered his head and murmured.
Putting aside everything else, Long Xiao had also participated in the imperial examinations and possessed some human strength. With these two factors combined, in a simple contest of strength, he was no match for Long Xiao.
"I never expected this human scholar to be so powerful; I misjudged him before."
After speaking, Long Dao looked in that direction again.
In the distance, many people were looking in that direction, their faces showing a hint of emotion. After all, there were very few people in the human race who could fight against the young talents of the dragon race.
"To deal with you, I don't need poetry or literature."
Ye Ru narrowed his eyes slightly, and four large characters appeared between his brows.
The power of the four bronze inscriptions transformed into four different shapes, forming a square that completely enveloped him.
"The power of bronze inscriptions?"
The Dragon King of the East Sea's expression changed when he saw the four golden characters.
He had heard of Ye Ru before, and the legends about him had piqued his curiosity, but none of them were as shocking as seeing him in person.
"Golden inscription?"
Long Xiao looked around, then roared, his entire body transforming into a winding giant dragon. As the dragon soared into the sky, it stirred up waves of wind and waves. It seemed that Long Xiao also knew the power of the golden script.
"Trap him!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Ru stomped his foot, and the four golden runes of energy spun around before blasting towards Long Xiao.
Holding the Emperor-Slaying Blade, Ye Ru moved and transformed into three, each carrying extremely powerful strength. In an instant, they arrived beside Long Xiao.
