Chapter 41: Incomparably Marvelous

  Today's second update~~~

  As he brushed past Lin Ye's hand with the two five-ring coins, he suddenly discovered that Lin Ye's slender fingers were holding a flying dagger.

  He swung the flying knife, completely different from the previous throwing technique, but another kind of kung fu. In one move, he opened up the two pieces of Wuxing and Lin Ye's whole person also accelerated his speed by taking advantage of this swing.

  "Close Combat Style ~" This is the typical close combat style, at this time, Liu Sheng no longer doubted that Lin Ye, if he looked at his previous moves, would not know at all, his next move was actually close combat.

  An inch short, an inch dangerous. Lin Ye's move this time was to get close to the enemy's line of defense, and the magic guard he used was still a flying knife. And his previous move that opened up the double ring just now represented his strong close combat skills, not a desperate move, but rather one of his stronger techniques.

  Unexpectedly! However, seeing this move, Liu Sheng suddenly understood that Lin Ye had already won this battle.

  Wei Yuan saw Lin Ye rushing over and remained calm. He opened his hands, and a series of breaths spread out from his body.

  In the midst of these auras, the originally scattered rings seemed to have heard a summons and changed their trajectories, gathering in front of Wei Yuan. The five rings were surrounded by auras that connected them together, and under the shroud of these auras, the original colors of the five rings gradually faded away, merging into a strange and wondrous hue.

  Under the flashing colors, the five rings are all rotating and cannot be seen clearly, as if they have completely merged.

  Wu Xing Shield

  The five rings shone with a flowing light, flashing between Lin Ye and Wei Yuan, as if to block Lin Ye's figure. And Wei Yuan, taking advantage of the obstruction of the Five Elements Shield, was about to fly back and retreat, pulling open the distance between him and Lin Ye.

  Before he could finish speaking, Lin Ye's figure flashed like lightning, and in the brief moment when no one could react, he pierced through the center of the Five Elements Shield with a single move, charging straight towards Wei Yuan.

  "Great skills, great courage~~~"

  Lu Zhang saw this and couldn't help but applaud in praise.

  The defensive power of the Five Elements Shield can be said to be perfectly intact, and it is a very good defensive means. As for Wei Yuan's Five Elements Shield, which is formed by the five elements circulating and combining into one, it can be said that it can attack from afar and defend up close.

  However, the only drawback of these five rings is that when the five rings merge into one, the reverse path is the central part, which is the weakest in defense. Lin Ye took advantage of this and passed through from the middle before Wei Yuan's Five Rings Shield had fully merged.

  His timing was just right, if the five elements had merged perfectly, then Lin Ye would have encountered the strongest defense, and under the hard support, it is very likely that he would have been seriously injured.

  Wei Yuan did not expect Lin Ye to make such a move, and after being stunned for a moment, Lin Ye rushed forward.

  Wei Yuan only felt a flash in front of his eyes, and after a silver-white light flashed by, his throat had already risen from his skin, and waves of coldness spread out.

  And Lin Ye's smiling face also appeared clearly before him.

  The five coins fell onto the ground with a crisp sound.

  "I've lost~~" Wei Yuan said, he was truly admiring Lin Ye in his heart. To be able to master the Far Attack technique to such an extent, was already a formidable expert.

  However, his fatal blow was in close combat. From this perspective alone, it can be said that the strong who are roughly equal to Lin Ye in terms of strength basically won't be his opponent.

  Unexpectedly, reversing the way and going against it, this is Lin Ye's most ruthless killer move.

  Lin Ye wins~~~

  This session of the Genius Showdown is indeed a thrilling spectacle, with talents emerging one after another. The competition for the top 250 spots alone has left the audience on the edge of their seats.

  Then came several rounds of exciting matches, and it was Zhang Chong's turn to take the stage. His opponent was named Zu Wanshan, a strong fourth-level warrior of the Divine Power level, wielding a long knife.

  Two men stepped onto the arena, bowed to each other, and then a bell rang.

  Zu Wanshan's eyes stared at Zhang Chong, his gaze piercing and intense. His strength wasn't particularly impressive, but after reviewing the tournament schedule, he thought to himself that this match against Li Weiyi should be a straightforward loss, no need to even fight.

  But unexpectedly, Li Weili was actually defeated by Zhang Chong, and for a moment, his heart was filled with both joy and worry.

  Fortunately, he has a great chance of defeating Zhang and advancing, which reignites his passion. After all, in the Genius War, being able to enter the top 250 is an incredible achievement, and this will also be his capital for rising through the ranks in the sect.

  What's worrying is that the person standing in front of him, although a strong Refiner, is notoriously eccentric. Even Li Weili was defeated by his cunning, which goes to show.

  If I win against him, then there's nothing more to say, but if I lose, his face will be utterly lost.

  These two contradictory emotions intertwined in his heart, and even after he took the stage, they still left him with a sense of unease deep down.

  On the other hand, Zhang Chong, who was standing opposite him, was very calm and collected. His two hands were empty, and he actually said to him,

  "Show me your Magic Watch first~~~"

  As soon as this sentence came out, a nameless fire burst forth in Zu Wanshan's heart. This stinky brat, not very strong, actually dared to be so arrogant, doesn't he know that arrogance added together is a stinky character?

  You must have won against Li Weili, letting you float on cloud nine and forgetting your own weight. Well, today, I, Zu Wanshan, will send you back to your original form.

  As he thought of this, he stretched out his right hand and the big knife was instantly in his hand. Just as the knife entered his hand, a golden light suddenly flashed before him, and three golden armored guards stood like a wall of gold in front of him, their three golden swords shining with sunlight-like brilliance, heavily chopping towards him.

  Zu Wanshan didn't know that Zhang Chong's "you first show your magic guard" was just an excuse, and with his personality, how could he let others take advantage of him. Just as Zu Wanshan was furious and wanted to launch a full-scale attack, Zhang Chong took the opportunity to throw out three golden armored guards, taking advantage of Zu Wanshan's weak defense to launch the first wave of attack.

  Zu Wanshan was caught off guard and had no choice but to withdraw his attack and switch to defense.

  His large sword was held horizontally in front of him, raised high above his head, blocking the combined attack of the three golden armored guards. Then the blade turned and drew fine lines on the hands of the three golden armored guards, wanting to turn from defense to offense.

  At this moment, three golden armored guards jumped out from behind him again, also without saying a word, and hacked at him with their swords.

  With just this one move, his offensive was rendered completely ineffective.

  A single Golden Armor Guard was only at the sixth stage of Body Refining, and with his strength at the fourth stage of Ancestor Wan's Divine Power, he could easily win. However, the combined attack of three Golden Armor Guards forced him to defend himself.

  At this moment, in a small space, six golden armored guards were completely unaffected by Zu Wanshan's knife wound and continued to attack him in turn.

  Zu Wanshan's heart was bitter, surrounded by six puppets in the middle, like a person who doesn't know martial arts fighting in a group, with swords and knives coming and going, he couldn't even make a complete move, only 30% of his strength was exerted.

  "This Zhang Chong is indeed very flexible, and can actually drive six Golden Armor Guards. It seems that with just this move, he's already comparable to a strong God-level warrior. However, relying solely on this move, short-term suppression is possible, but wanting to defeat Zu Wanshan will still be difficult. Nevertheless, the fact that he was able to use this move proves that his promotion to the top 500 wasn't just due to good luck." Old Man Ma said leisurely.

  "Old Master Ma, at this moment, it's hard to say that Zhang Chong has fallen. You take a look at the direction those Golden Armor Guards are heading." Shen Long Lao's eyes were sharp and seemed to have noticed something different.

  When he said this, Ma Lao and Lu Lao also looked over carefully.

  "Hmm, this move is indeed incredibly amazing." said Ma Zhanglao lightly.
