Divine Seal: From a Heavy Sword to Slicing Through the Holy Demon Continent

Having had such an experience, he now wants to go to the demon battlefield even more, not only to enjoy the thrill of killing demons and improve his own strength.

On the other hand, he was also waiting for this opportunity to see his maternal grandfather in person at the Exorcism Pass.

He knew that his maternal grandfather was a powerful and ruthless figure, and he also knew how terrifying his strength was.

But what you know and what you actually see will evoke different feelings.

He wanted to see just how powerful his maternal grandfather, the true number one person on the Holy Demon Continent, really was!

Chapter 179. Boss, you're inhuman!

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

The preliminary rounds of the six temples have all concluded, and the group stage of the finals will be held as scheduled after a two-day break.

In the council hall of the Holy Alliance Grand Trial Arena, Long Haoyu arrived early and sat calmly in the rest area, watching the numerous contestants and their teachers pouring in.

Cai'er sat to Long Haoyu's left, her jade hand resting in his palm, while Li Xin sat to his right. They both looked toward the central arena of the Great Trial Arena.

Not everyone has arrived yet, and the group stage draw won't be held for a while, so there's no way to rush. We can only wait patiently.

Since it was already the final stage, there was no need to go to their respective temples to compete. Here, Long Haoyu saw many unfamiliar figures, yet he could recognize them at a glance.

There was a priest with a shiny bald head, a female warrior exuding a heroic aura, and a summoner with pink hair tied up.

"Boss, boss!"

Just then, as Long Haoyu was looking at those 'very familiar' figures, Lin Xin, with his long, dark green hair and flamboyant appearance, squeezed his way over with a big smile on his face.

She came over and got close to Long Haoyu. As if she hadn't noticed Cai'er, she reflexively tried to squeeze between Long Haoyu and Cai'er.

A chilling killing intent erupted instantly. Cai'er tilted her head and looked at Lin Xin. Her jade hand had somehow slipped out of Long Haoyu's palm, and a dagger was pointing straight at the ceiling of the training ground, right where Lin Xin was about to sit.

Lin Xin shuddered, snapping out of his surprise at seeing Long Haoyu and noticing the dagger standing upright in the spot he was trying to squeeze into. His smile instantly froze.

"Big Sister, you're here too!"

"Look at my eyes, I really should donate them."

"Big sister, please don't take these things to heart! I didn't mean to do it."

Lin Xin quickly put on a smiling face and obediently moved to a seat further away.

Cai'er glanced coldly at Lin Xin, put the dagger away, and placed her jade hand back into Long Haoyu's palm.

Long Haoyu smiled slightly and said, "What are you doing here? Aren't all the people from your Magic Temple sitting in another area?"

"Boss, what are you saying!" Lin Xin argued, "It's the finals, I can definitely choose where I want to be!"

As he spoke with an air of seriousness, Lin Xin's earnest expression didn't last long before he burst into laughter: "Boss, see? I told you I could make it to the finals! I've already made it to the finals."

Long Haoyu hummed in agreement: "It's good that we've made it to the finals. All we have to do now is wait for the finals to end. I won't forget what I promised you."

"The boss is so righteous, I've been waiting for this day for so long."

Lin Xin said happily, "Originally, I was just thinking of giving up after the finals and waiting for it to end, but after you helped me a few days ago, I have now learned some attack magic."

"I definitely won't slack off in this final. I'll definitely try to get a good ranking, and maybe even win the group. I definitely won't let you down, boss!"

As he said this, Lin Xin was very motivated.

Without overcoming his psychological barrier, he just wanted to calmly wait until the finals to join the Demon Hunter team.

Now that he has overcome his psychological barriers and experienced the hellish blood sea before, he is far from satisfied with his current strength.

Besides researching elixirs, he also set himself a small goal for this final competition.

It's fine if they don't learn offensive magic.

Now that we've embarked on this path, we must forge a bright and prosperous future from it!

The events in the Blood Sea of ​​Hell can only happen in illusions; they are absolutely forbidden in real life!

Just as Lin Xin was patting his chest and assuring everyone that he would definitely make a name for himself in this final, an old man dressed in light gold attire walked onto the central platform of the council hall.

The old man was extremely burly, even more robust than the bald priest Long Haoyu had just seen. One punch from him would definitely send the other man to his death.

His short, gray hair stood upright like steel needles, and his tight-fitting clothes were embroidered with eight silver dragons, all of which added to his majestic aura.

The old man stepped onto the stage, and his imposing aura immediately silenced the entire training ground, with all eyes focused on him.

"Everyone has arrived. The group formation ceremony will now begin!"

"All participants retain their preliminary round numbers. We will now draw lots to determine who will be in a group of ten. Each group will compete in the first round!"

As the old man spoke, a crystal ball with a diameter of one meter slowly rose from below the platform, containing sixty small orange balls, each corresponding to the number of the person who passed the preliminary round.

Without the old man making any further moves, the orange-yellow balls inside the crystal ball began to bounce and rush toward the six hollow crystal pillars surrounding the crystal ball.

"I am the Vice Temple Master of the Warrior Temple and the Lord of the Berserker Hall, Ren Wo Kuang. This lottery draw is supervised by the Vice Temple Masters of the various temples on the second floor. If there are no problems, I will begin to announce the results!"

The old man spoke calmly, looking towards the deputy temple masters of the various temples on the second floor.

On the second floor, the gentle voice of the priest, Ruoshui, rang out from the temple: "Everything is normal. Temple Master, please read the announcement!"

Ren Wokuang smiled and nodded to the people on the second floor. The many small spheres of the crystal pillar floated in a row in front of him.

"The first group of the finals will be held at the Holy Alliance Grand Trial Grounds, Knight Trial Grounds. The list for the first group is as follows: Knight Temple No. 5, Warrior Temple No. 2, Warrior Temple No. 67, Magic Temple No...."

"The second group of the finals, the competition location..."

"..."

"..."

Soon, Ren Wo Kuang finished reading out all the lottery results.

As the lottery results were read out, Lin Xin's expression stiffened, and the corners of his mouth twitched violently.

"Boss, I didn't hear wrong, did I?"

Lin Xin asked incredulously, "Am I really that unlucky? I was just saying I was trying to get first place in my group, and now I'm in the same group as you?"

"If we run into you in the very first match, forget about getting first place in the group; it would be a miracle if we didn't finish last!"

"It's cracked! It's really cracked!"

As Lin Xin spoke, he covered his left chest with his hand, as if he was about to suffocate.

Long Haoyu glanced at Lin Xin, and seeing Lin Xin's flirtatious manner, smiled and shook his head.

He had thought that Lin Xin had changed, and that his personality would change somewhat after he started learning offensive magic, but now he knew he was completely wrong.

Some people are just inherently sassy.

Lin Xin is that kind of person; he's flamboyant and frivolous from beginning to end, and he's not someone who's easy to change.

"Let's go. We've been assigned to the same group, so let's head to the Knight's Trial Grounds together."

"Although we're in the same group, you might not necessarily face me in your first match."

Even if you run into me, I can give you some face; I won't kill you instantly!

After saying goodbye to Cai'er, Long Haoyu headed straight for the Knight Trial Grounds.

Lin Xin watched Long Haoyu's departing figure.

For a long time, he couldn't utter a single word.

Boss, you're inhuman!

Chapter 180. This bastard, just strangle him!

Fate is a strange thing.

Some people can become the chosen ones without doing anything and ultimately achieve a life of effortless success.

Some people long for bad things to happen, yet they can never escape the manipulation of fate.

In the Knights' Trial Arena, the group stage draw results came to an end, and Lin Xin was completely shattered within the Knights' Trial Arena.

The reason was simple: he least wanted to face Long Haoyu in the first match, but he was drawn into the first match against Long Haoyu.

Standing in the Knight's Trial Grounds, Lin Xin looked at Long Haoyu with utter despair.

Seeing Long Haoyu go on stage, he couldn't help but toss his dark green hair: "Boss, do you think I'm a jinx? I said I wouldn't face you in the first match, but I'm so unlucky to run into you."

"Perhaps it's because you've been talking about this all along that fate has granted your wish!" Long Haoyu replied, stepping onto the trial ground and looking at Lin Xin without any pressure.

Lin Xin: "...This wish is better left unfulfilled!"

"Boss, let's chat, but let's make one thing clear first. You may be more handsome than me, but I'm not bad either, right? So don't slap my face when we get to it!"

"I make a living off my face. If this face gets damaged, my future will be incredibly difficult. Besides, boss, you promised you wouldn't kill me instantly, you can't go back on your word!"

Long Haoyu smiled slightly and said, "I always keep my word. If I said I wouldn't kill you instantly, then I won't!"

Upon receiving a definite answer from Long Haoyu, Lin Xin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. A flash of light appeared in his spatial ring, and a staff made entirely of fire cloud crystal was taken out.

A rich fire element emanated from the staff, and in addition to this intense elemental power, it also exuded the aura of a pay-to-win god of war.

Looking at Lin Xin's staff and smelling the money emanating from it, Long Haoyu silently cursed him as a rich bastard.

Then, he stood with his hands behind his back in front of Lin Xin, clearly ready for the match.

"Game start!"

The referee's voice fell.

On the vast training ground, Lin Xin quickly widened the distance between himself and Long Haoyu.

The Fire Cloud Crystal Staff was quite flashy, and it was also very quick and convenient to condense fire elements. After Lin Xin distanced himself from Long Haoyu, he immediately began to condense elemental power.

At the same time, he began to mutter incoherently, forming a series of awkward magic spells. These were attack spells that Lin Xin had never shown before, before his experience in the Hell Blood Sea, and they all came at Long Haoyu.

While unleashing these magical attacks, Lin Xin couldn't help but shout between incantations, "Boss, remember our agreement! You absolutely can't kill me instantly!"

"I'm not greedy. I don't expect to last ten minutes. I just need you to kill me in nine minutes. That way, I won't become the fastest man to end the game."

Long Haoyu chuckled, not taking off his sword, and strolled leisurely across the arena, listening to Lin Xin's shouts while dodging numerous attack spells.
