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

But as Wu Feng was pulled out a little, the spiritual energy surging beneath the arena began to show signs of erupting.

At the same time, Long Haoyu's cold voice rang out: "Sword, rise!"

Chapter 182. Composite Skills, Sword Rising and Falling

ka ka ka-

On the arena, sword energy suddenly surged from the cracks in the surface.

Each sword aura carried an extremely sharp aura, equivalent to a full-force attack from a top-tier fourth-tier knight.

If it were just one or two sword strikes, such a move would seem rather clownish, but at this moment, dozens or even hundreds of sword strikes were erupting from the arena.

The sword energy formed a net, covering two-thirds of the arena.

"Damn, that was close!"

Lin Xin twisted his body with great force, his buttocks swaying left and right, narrowly dodging Long Haoyu's self-created skill.

Just now, a sword aura flew out from behind him. If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have been defeated on the spot.

That kind of intense, unpleasant experience would definitely leave a psychological scar even after you've recovered.

"Boss, did you have to go that far?"

"With so many sword energies, I didn't even have time to chant any magic spells! Tell me, what sins have I committed?!"

"Luckily, I have pretty good waist strength, otherwise this time you would have really made me lose face all over the mountain, and I would have been disgraced.

Lin Xin kept his body twisting.

Hundreds of sword energies surged forth, each one striking him with perfect precision, nearly scaring him to death each time.

On the referee's stand, Lin Chen's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

He wasn't surprised that his grandson was no match for Long Haoyu's self-created skill. As a fellow mage, he knew very well just how deadly Long Haoyu's move was to mages.

Lin Xin was already physically weak, and in close combat he would be easy prey. He relied on ranged attacks. The distance between Lin Xin and Long Haoyu was indeed far enough to meet the standard for ranged attacks.

However, with each surge of sword energy, the long-range attack was transformed into close combat.

However, he was surprised by his grandson's random shouting in the ring at this time.

Embarrassing you to the extreme? Isn't this blatant ranting embarrassing you to the extreme? You're going to completely disgrace the Lin family, you little bastard!

Lin Chen was holding back a mouthful of blood, and he really had the urge to faint from anger. What a disgrace! This is the Demon Hunter Team selection competition, what kind of conspicuous thing is he to be in this trial field!

Long Haoyu snapped out of his reverie and listened to Lin Xin shouting loudly. He watched Lin Xin nimbly dodge the sword energy, but his face showed no disappointment, as if he had expected all of this.

"Boss, this self-created skill of yours isn't very effective! If you encounter someone as agile as me in the future, its power might be quite limited!"

Lin Xin continued to dodge, but he didn't forget to keep shouting at this moment, prepared to be a guinea pig. He was now trying his best to find out the flaws in Long Haoyu's move.

Long Haoyu smiled slightly and said, "Lin Xin, you'd better be careful next. This self-created skill of mine is not as simple as you think. It's a composite skill!"

Multi-skills? What does that even mean?

Lin Xin was somewhat surprised and couldn't quite grasp the meaning behind Long Haoyu's words. He didn't seem to have heard of any skill related to reconciliation or non-reconciliation before.

Long Haoyu didn't give Lin Xin a chance to continue reacting, and the one-third of Wufeng that was still not in the ground was completely pulled out.

Holding the sword without a blade in one hand, Long Haoyu swept out a sword beam with the sword without a blade, and then used the sword without a blade as a fulcrum to slam it heavily down to the ground.

"Sword, fall!"

Clang, clang, clang—

The sword energies that had previously shot out from the ground had not completely dissipated.

Lin Xin was so focused on dodging the sword energy that shot up from the ground that he didn't pay any attention to its final movements.

Upon hearing Long Haoyu's words, she seemed to suddenly realize something.

His pupils widened dramatically as he looked up in disbelief at the sky.

A series of sword energies hovered above his head, eyeing him menacingly.

With a soft shout from Long Haoyu, these suspended sword energies fell one by one.

Rumbling--

The arena was swept across by streaks of sword energy.

The already cracked arena was now filled with a cloud of dust.

Lin Xin's wailing echoed from the smoke and dust: "I'm not fighting anymore, I'm really not fighting this time, boss, you're really too ruthless."

"Referee, referee! I surrender! I surrender!"

Upon hearing Lin Xin's surrender, Han Qian, acting as the head referee, transformed into a golden light and landed on the training ground.

His powerful spiritual energy began to surge, and his Radiant Body was instantly unleashed, quickly dispelling all the smoke and dust under his aura.

Soon, the smoke and dust dissipated from the arena, and everyone in the rest area could see what had happened on the arena.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, if they hadn't witnessed the whole thing, they really wouldn't have believed what they were seeing.

The hard training arena was now riddled with holes, allowing them to fully imagine the power of the sword energy that had just struck them, and even more so, how much damage those sword energies would have caused if they had landed on them.

Han Qian stood not far from Long Haoyu, with Lin Xin being held by his side with one hand. In that instant, the magician's robe on Lin Xin's body was torn to shreds, revealing his fair skin underneath.

His face was filthy, a fact that constantly reminded everyone of his dirty appearance.

He, Lin Xin, is in a really terrible situation right now.

Looking at the situation on the arena, Han Qian couldn't help but feel ashamed, as he could fully imagine just how terrifying the destructive power of this move was.

The soaring sword energy can already deliver many unexpected attack effects.

The sword energy after the attack condenses in the air without dissipating, and can continue to fall to inflict secondary damage, further enhancing the stability of the surprise attack.

Even he hadn't noticed the sword energy that hadn't dissipated.

"First match of the first group, contestant number five from the Knight Temple wins!" Han Qian announced the result, concluding the match.

No one, regardless of which temple they came from, had any objection to this match; Long Haoyu's strength was truly beyond doubt.

If a skill created on the spot is so powerful, one can only imagine the level of skill that is thoroughly mastered.

No wonder the previous reports said that Knight Temple contestant number five killed Knight Temple contestant number one, who was also a fifth-tier knight, with just one move.

Knight Temple's number five contestant is truly terrifying!

After announcing the match results, Han Qian didn't immediately leave the arena. After all, Long Haoyu had created his skill during the match. He asked in a deep voice:

"Haoyu, why did you decide to create your own skill at this time?"

"In such a competition, and in future battles against the demons, your actions are extremely dangerous!"

"Could it be that you were affected by the magic that Lin Xin just cast?"

Asking about something Yang Haoyu had previously suspected, Han Qian focused her gaze on Long Haoyu, showing that she took this matter very seriously.

Everyone in the Knight's Trial Arena focused their attention on Long Haoyu at this moment.

As soon as Long Haoyu answered, Han Qian almost choked to death, and Lin Xin rolled his eyes on the spot.

The way they looked at Long Haoyu was as strange as it could be.

Chapter 183. Cai'er's Heart, Lin Chen's Request

"Reporting to the Holy Knight Commander, I have indeed gained some insights!"

“Each Demon Hunter Team is composed of elites from the six major temples. The role of mages in the Demon Hunter Team is twofold: to conduct reconnaissance and to launch large-scale group attacks during battles.”

"But the six members of the Demon Hunter team will all be independent individuals. I think that when a battle occurs, although the teammates around them will do everything they can to help each other, they may not be able to do everything in every aspect."

"Therefore, I believe that although I am a Retribution Knight, I can still study this skill when I have extra energy. The move I just made was a move I created based on Lin Xin's magic attack, specifically targeting demon minions."

"If a similar situation is encountered on the battlefield, it can not only reduce the pressure on the mages in the team, but also play an unexpected role, reducing the pressure on the entire team."

Long Haoyu answered confidently.

He explained in detail the self-created skill that came to him on a whim.

The purpose of developing these skills is exactly the same as he said: to clear out mobs.

Otherwise, given that he could approach the strength of a sixth-tier knight when he unleashed his full power, there would be no need for him to use such a move that disperses his spiritual energy, and his strongest attack is only at the top level of the fourth tier.

On the battlefield, every second counts. When fighting against an opponent of equal strength, if you miss the initiative because of such tactics, the consequences will be fatal.

After a brief silence, Han Qian's brows gradually furrowed.

Long Haoyu's words convinced him to some extent; such a tactic could indeed have a surprising effect on the demon battlefield.

Given that none of the demons believed that Long Haoyu, as a punitive knight, possessed such an attack method, his sudden move would undoubtedly result in heavy losses for the demons.

"Understood. You and Lin Xin may go down now!"

"Next, we will hold the second match!"

Han Qian put Lin Xin down from his hands, indicating that the two could leave the field.

Without wasting words, Long Haoyu exchanged a glance with Lin Xin and walked straight down to the training ground.

Lin Xin's expression was still strange, and he seemed a little awkward following Long Haoyu: "Boss, that's really not fair of you! You're still using me as a guinea pig!"

"Your move has really hurt me deeply. I feel like this emotional wound can never be healed."

Lin Xin is a very lively and playful person; that's just his personality.

Long Haoyu smiled slightly, exchanged a few jokes with Lin Xin, and then went straight back to the rest area to sit next to Cai'er.

"Cai'er, have the results of the draw for your group come out yet?" Long Haoyu asked.

Cai'er sat quietly next to Long Haoyu and replied softly, "I'm already out. My group's last match is at a different time, but I should be heading over soon."

"I'll take you there!" Long Haoyu took Cai'er's hand and walked towards the outside of the Knight's Temple.

Cai'er let Long Haoyu lead her, and with her eyesight restored considerably, she looked at Long Haoyu beside her and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
