Throne of Gods: The mighty power of the heavens, the holy dragon descends upon the world!

Chapter 12 What Temple Number One? Talk to my Holy Sword!
"The Magic Temple, Lin Lan!"

Lin Lan, dressed in a blue robe, was filled with fighting spirit. She was determined to show Su Zhe what she was capable of today!
"Knight's Temple, Su Zhe."

Su Zhe returned the greeting with a faint smile, still feeling no pressure in front of Lin Lan.

The sixth and fifth levels are two completely different realms.

The referee glanced at the two men and, seeing that they were both ready, immediately stepped back from the center of the ring.

"Game start!"

As the voice faded, Lin Lan's ice-blue staff shone, and dozens of ice balls condensed and appeared.

First-level hockey?
On the podium, Han Qian's eyes showed a hint of interest.

"Although the ice ball is only a first-tier ice magic, the fact that dozens of them can be condensed at once shows that the magic control is quite good."

Before Lin Chen could even feel smug after hearing Han Qian's words, Han Qian continued, "It's just a pity that they're only ice balls. If they were second-tier ice blades or ice cones, this many might have made Su Zhe take them more seriously."

As expected, Su Zhe simply raised his shield, and dozens of whistling ice balls were smashed one by one.

"Let's get serious, stop playing these childish tricks," Su Zhe said.

Lin Lan was stunned for a moment, then her face flushed red. "Damn it, let me show you what I'm capable of!"

"Ice Lance Technique!"

Third-tier ice magic is still low-level, but perhaps Lin Lan has a different talent for controlling ice magic.

Lin Lan has managed to make something out of a simple ice spear technique.

Ten ice spears were positioned on either side, aiming to stab at Su Zhe's limbs and abdomen.

After doing all this, Lin Lan's face paled a little, as releasing several third-tier spells at once had made her breathing somewhat unstable.

"Let's see how you block this!"

Lin Lan regulated her breathing while nervously watching Su Zhe. She knew that these spells would be difficult to defeat a knight of the same rank, but they could at least hold him off for a moment, giving her enough time to chant high-level ice magic.

Facing ten swift ice spears, Su Zhe raised his shield and blocked three of them.

His right-hand longsword shone with a golden light, and he slashed in a semi-circle towards the remaining seven ice spears.

Lin Lan frowned. Relying solely on physical strength to block seven third-tier spells without using any skills seemed a bit too overconfident.

Lin Lan glanced at the referee and, seeing that the referee showed no intention of taking action, breathed a slight sigh of relief. The league certainly wouldn't stand by and watch a participant get into trouble.

On the other side, Su Zhe's right hand vibrated repeatedly, and all seven ice spears turned into ice crystals and fell down.

At the same time, Su Zhe moved and rushed towards Lin Lan.

Su Zhe's decision not to use any skills was not due to arrogance, but rather a pursuit of speed.

With a single strike, Su Zhe broke through the predicament and rushed to within thirty meters of Lin Lan.

Lin Lan's expression changed, and the fifth-order ice magic she was chanting was forced to stop.

"What a monster! He broke through my Ice Spear Strike with just his physical strength and charged at me without stopping at all."

The ice-blue staff in Lin Lan's hand glowed.

Resist Ice Ring!

A white halo bloomed, rushing straight towards Su Zhe.

The Ice Ring of Resistance that could make Lin Lan abandon the spell she was halfway through casting could not possibly be an ordinary third-tier spell.

Even ordinary third-tier magic couldn't stop Su Zhe. Lin Lan's Ice Resistance Ring was as powerful as the peak of the fourth tier, and even ordinary fifth-tier magic would be pushed back a distance.

A hint of confidence appeared in Lin Lan's eyes. Although Su Zhe's strength exceeded her expectations, he was definitely not completely immune to the power of the fourth-tier peak Ice Ring. This was a matter of magical properties.

Lin Lan retreated, having already made a plan in mind. She widened the distance again and chanted a fifth-order ice spell, still believing she had a chance of winning!

However, Su Zhe clearly wouldn't do as she wished. Seeing the white halo spreading towards him, Su Zhe's eyes lit up as he was illuminated by the light of the longsword in his hand.

"Holy Sword!" The fifth-tier knight skill was activated instantly. Su Zhe put the shield into his storage ring and held the sword with both hands.

His body continued to move forward, and Su Zhe slashed down with both hands, aiming at the white halo.

Amidst gasps of amazement from the rostrum and the participating teams, the white, resisting ice ring was easily sliced ​​open by Su Zhe's longsword, like butter meeting a hot knife.

What resistance to Frost Nova? Go talk to my Holy Sword!

Before the white ice rings had dissipated, Su Zhe's figure had already arrived within ten meters of Lin Lan.

Lin Lan's face froze, feeling unwilling, but she also knew that she was doomed to lose.

A mage who is halfway through chanting, without any life-saving skills, is absolutely doomed if a knight with higher cultivation levels gets close.

"I surrender……"

As Lin Lan's unwilling voice fell, the referee's figure flashed, and a heavy sword blocked Lin Lan's path.

Su Zhe, who had been hesitant, immediately perked up. Forcibly withdrawing his grip was not as satisfying as unleashing his full potential.

Su Zhe's eyes lit up, and the knight's longsword in his hand became even faster.

finally……

"clang!!!"

A chilling voice rang out, and the referee, wielding a heavy sword, changed his expression.

He felt a tremendous force coming from his hand, almost causing the heavy sword to slip from his grasp.

Fortunately, the referee took a step back, dissipating the force, and was filled with shock.

I am a seventh-tier warrior. Although I have just entered the seventh tier, it is impossible for me to be forced to retreat by a single attack from a fifth-tier knight. Even if I did not use my full strength, it would take a sixth-tier warrior to do so.

The referee was full of doubts, but in the end he could only attribute it to his own carelessness in using too little force.

After all, compared to the conclusion that he hadn't used his full strength, the conclusion that Su Zhe was a sixth-tier expert was much harder to accept.

The referee shook his head slightly, no longer thinking about it. "Cavaliers number one wins. The Cavaliers' divisional series is officially over."

As the referee's voice faded, the people on the podium came to their senses.

They had forgotten how many times Su Zhe had shocked them.

Defeating Lin Lan was nothing special, just something expected. But repelling a seventh-level referee was a different story.

"Sixth rank, Su Zhe is sixth rank!" Lin Chen suddenly stood up, looking at Han Qian with a suspicious gaze.

"Han Qian, your Knights Temple wouldn't lie about their age just to get first place, would they?"

Han Qian was stunned for a moment, then flew into a rage, for this concerned the honor of his temple.

"Lin Chen, what nonsense are you spouting!"

Lin Chen also realized that this was something that would be detrimental to the unity of the alliance, and he absolutely could not say it.

Lin Chen bowed apologetically, regained his composure, and frowned deeply.

"What exactly is Su Zhe's cultivation level?"

Han Qian snorted coldly, "You'll find out when we get to the finals. Besides, our Knights Temple doesn't need to resort to these despicable means to consistently come in first place!"

After saying that, Han Qian led the high-ranking members of the Knights Temple away.

"Besides, your so-called Magic Temple No. 1 is still not as good as Su Zhe's."

As Han Qian's words came before he left, the people from the other four holy temples looked at Lin Chen with strange expressions.

Lin Chen's face turned a deep purplish-red. He didn't say anything more, and simply got up and left.

Our first day of testing the waters went well, and I'd like to thank all our old and new readers for their support. As the humble author, I humbly ask that you all continue reading every day. Today, I saw many authors in the author group saying that *Shen Yin* has potential. Currently, we're the only new book in the *Shen Yin* series, and if our initial success is good, we'll likely see more *Shen Yin* fanfiction.
