Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 127 Instant Kill

Xiao Hongchen stretched out his five fingers and grabbed Meng Hongchen's head, squeezing hard as he said fiercely, "Meng, don't forget, he is our opponent."

"Ouch!" Meng Hongchen cried out, muttering, "I know, laugh. Let go, it hurts!"

Ignoring the cheers from the crowd, Ji Lin made his move.

He gripped the Heavenly Fire Judgment with both hands, slightly gathering his strength. The three spirit rings on his body lit up, and he used three spirit skills at the same time. A crimson beam of light followed Ji Lin as he swung his greatsword, slashing towards the seven people from the Heavenly Spirit Advanced Spirit Master Academy opposite him.

After Ji Lin unsealed the power of destruction, all his attacks were imbued with that power, and every casual strike was accompanied by flames of destruction—in game terms, every hit was a critical strike.

Wherever the crimson beam passed, the air distorted, and the temperature in the arena rose sharply. This attack was fierce, and the students from Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy only had time to release a few soul skills for defense and attack before they were hit by the crimson beam.

"Boom, boom, boom." Explosions rang out, and a tiny mushroom cloud appeared on the side of Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy.

When the smoke from the explosion cleared, the seven students from Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy were lying sprawled on the ground, rolling and groaning.

Several people were knocked unconscious by the blast.

Ji Lin, leaning on his flaming greatsword with one hand, calmly said to the stunned referee, "It's over, referee."

"Huh?" The referee finally reacted, while the teacher in charge of the opposing team, Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy, had already come up to the stage, picked up the fallen student and hurriedly left, obviously in a hurry to treat the student. After all, the burn marks on those students were very frightening. But in fact, Ji Lin had already shown mercy, otherwise the students on the other side would not have suffered such simple burns.

Hundreds of thousands of spectators, even Xu Jiawei and the civil and military officials on the wall, as well as the other participating academies, were completely silent at this moment.

Everyone stared wide-eyed at the deep pit on the competition platform. The pit was still radiating intense heat.

They were even unable to breathe and had difficulty swallowing.

Xu Jiawei stared at Ji Lin in shock. Although he knew Ji Lin was a master of the Ultimate Flame and had received Chi Yuan's tutelage since childhood, making him very strong, he had never seen Ji Lin make a move before. Yet, Ji Lin had instantly killed seven people with a single strike. Five of those seven were Soul Masters like himself! Moreover, he clearly saw that Ji Lin had only used the first three Soul Skills! The fourth, ten-thousand-year Soul Skill, was completely unused, meaning that the attack just now was not his full strength.

Xu Jiujiu, who was beside him, also looked at Ji Lin in shock. This was the first time she had seen Ji Lin make a move. Although she knew that Ji Lin was strong, she did not expect him to be so strong as to be incomprehensible. But then she thought about it and realized that this was her fiancé, the childhood sweetheart she had raised since she was a child. The stronger he was, the better.

Xu Jiawei also thought of this, and he and Xu Jiujiu exchanged a glance, revealing a knowing smile at the same time.

The other students were inwardly screaming that it was impossible. This was just a Soul Master, and such a young one at that, yet he had eliminated seven opponents with a single blow. The hundreds of thousands of spectators were filled with nothing but shock and excitement.

Are these the disciples of Shrek Academy? Are these the monsters of Monster Academy? They're too strong, stronger than they can comprehend.

Ignoring the stunned audience and the other students from other academies, he led the way off the platform and back to Shrek Academy's position after the referee announced Shrek Academy's victory.

Ling Luochen followed behind Ji Lin, her eyes fixed on Ji Lin's figure. She was also deeply attracted by Ji Lin's domineering figure, who had just killed seven people with a single sword strike.

Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and even Dai Yueheng stared blankly, instinctively following Ji Lin back to Shrek Academy's location. Ji Lin's attack had shocked them as well. Dai Yueheng even put himself in the shoes of Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy, feeling that even he couldn't withstand Ji Lin's attack head-on and emerge unscathed; at the very least, he would be seriously injured.

This is the power of the Heavenly Fire Judgment, which has been unsealed with the power of destruction. Without the power of destruction, the flames of the Heavenly Fire Judgment are merely extreme flames with extremely high temperatures, but the flames of destruction with the power of destruction are far more powerful than simply multiplied.

Otherwise, Ji Lin wouldn't have had the idea of ​​killing a god while being a mortal.

The Heavenly Fire Judgment, which has unsealed the power of destruction, can be considered the strongest martial soul on the continent right now. Even the Golden Dragon, the ancestor of power simulated by Wang Qiu'er, is not quite as powerful.

Wang Yan looked at Ji Lin with delight. He hadn't expected Ji Lin to be able to defeat all seven opponents single-handedly. However, what puzzled him was that the Heavenly Fire Judgment in Ji Lin's hand was vastly different in power from what he had displayed during the freshman assessment. Had Ji Lin not used his full strength before? Was he afraid of hurting his classmates? Did he only unleash his full power in this competition?

Ji Lin was unaware of Wang Yan's suspicions.

Shrek Academy's victory kicked off the competition. Ji Lin didn't pay much attention to the other academies' matches afterward, as he didn't think any of them could threaten him, except for a few.

Within the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy area, Meng Hongchen looked at Ji Lin sitting in the Shrek Academy area with a dreamy gaze, "So handsome! So strong! How can there be such a handsome and strong little brother?"

This time, Xiao Hongchen ignored his infatuated younger sister. He looked at Ji Lin with a serious expression, his hands clenched tightly. His face was extremely grim.

He wasn't confident he could block the attack unscathed, and he could tell that Ji Lin hadn't used his full strength and was still holding back a lot of power.

How could a Soul Master be so strong? Are all the students at Shrek Academy this strong?

At this moment, Xiao Hongchen began to question the meaning of life.

After the initial shock of the first match, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament was in full swing.

Meanwhile, the names Shrek Academy and Ji Lin became famous throughout Star Luo City.

Everyone was discussing Ji Lin's feat of instantly killing seven people with a single blow.

Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng also became famous. Although the two did not make a move, their Soul Emperor cultivation level was undeniable. Moreover, Ji Lin's performance was so strong. As two disciples of Shrek Academy with higher cultivation than Ji Lin, they were highly anticipated.

The elimination rounds lasted for three days before ending. Ji Lin and his group did not watch every match. Wang Yan was in charge of collecting information from other colleges, so he was very busy going in and out of the Star Emperor Hotel these past few days.

In the past few days, Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng have recovered almost completely and are now able to play in matches.

This put Wang Yan at ease. With two Soul Emperors, plus Ji Lin and Wang Qiu'er, two monsters whose levels couldn't be judged by, he completely let go of the pressure in his heart.
