Yue Zhenhua's End

Outside White Dragon Lake, amidst the thick fog, Yue Zhenhua paced anxiously.

Beside him, Ma Yao was bringing over some food. "Grand Hall Master, have some."

"I'm not eating! What's the point of eating? I'm not in the mood."

Yue Zhenhua casually knocked over the food. Ma Yao frowned slightly. He really didn't want to serve this Grand Hall Master anymore. This guy had become increasingly irritable over time.

"Tell me! Why hasn't Lin Zhen come out yet? There are only three days left until the God of War Arena, does he not want to participate?"

"It's possible that Lin Zhen is already dead inside," Ma Yao analyzed.

"Impossible! Although Lin Zhen has been inside for a long time, I can sense that the kid is not dead. You don't know, advancing to the Stellar Realm requires a stroke of luck, and my current luck lies with Lin Zhen. If he were dead, I would definitely be able to sense it, but I don't feel any comfort at all. I can sense that he is still alive, and living quite well."

Ma Yao didn't know what advancing to the Stellar Realm meant, but he didn't want to stay there any longer. After hesitating for a moment, he was about to leave.

At this moment, Wei Li ran over and came to Yue Zhenhua's side, saying, "Grand Hall Master, I'm leaving."

"You're leaving? Where are you going?" Yue Zhenhua suddenly turned around and asked.

"It's like this, the God of War Arena is about to begin, and all the martial artists need to prepare in advance. I have advanced to the Level Eight God of War recently, but Lin Zhen has not made any moves yet, so I need to go back and prepare."

"Hmph! Fine, go ahead. We can still accomplish things without you." Yue Zhenhua, somewhat annoyed.

He suddenly realized something and looked at Ma Yao: "Are you leaving too?"

"Yes, Grand Hall Master, the time is almost up, and I want to too."

"Let's go! It's no big deal if you're not here. You're just getting in the way and can't help at all. As long as He Liu is still here, that's enough."

Although Yue Zhenhua hasn't made much progress lately, He Liu has already advanced to the Level Nine God of War. With further improvement in strength, there's not much difference between him and Yue Zhenhua anymore. He believes that the two of them here are enough to defeat Lin Zhen.

Ma Yao and Wei Li as if they had been granted a pardon and immediately turned and left.

"Two good-for-nothings!"

Yue Zhenhua cursed and continued to wait by White Dragon Lake.

With the departure of Ma Yao and Wei Li, most of the people in Wudalianchi left.

Once the news of crystals replacing Dark Energy was announced, almost every War God who could come arrived. They've been here for almost three months, and everyone wants to rest.

Moreover, the God of War Arena is about to begin, and people are paying close attention to this grand event. There is no cell phone signal inside this Ancient God Ruins, so you can't see anything here.

Although the entrance fee is very expensive, 100 million per entry, very few people are poor enough to advance to the War God; they can afford 100 million or 200 million.

Only a few War God who weren't in good shape and were short of money remained here. Even when the God of War Arena started, they didn't want to watch it. These people were basically indifferent to worldly affairs.

However, in reality, such people often achieve very limited success. They can't truly reach the pinnacle by just focusing on their cultivation. Advancement in martial arts always requires too many resources and opportunities. Even if they cultivate to the level of War God, they won't be very competitive when they actually fight against others.

With most of the War God gone, the once bustling Wudalianchi has become quiet again.

Only Yue Zhenhua from White Dragon Lake He Liu from the entrance are still here, along with some other War God who are in seclusion and cultivating diligently.

********

The topic of the God of War Arena is getting hotter and hotter outside.

This year's God of War Arena will still be a virtual battle, but instead of the Heavenly Garden setting, it will be a virtual arena.

Large screens have been erected in the streets and alleys of every Base City, and this time, people can see the actual battle situation live.

There are a total of 1,024 War God participating from around the world, and this big screen can broadcast every battle.

The topic of who will win the championship has been discussed countless times. Although all Tsardom of Russia Three Warriors were eliminated by Lin Zhen, with Kholov in the game, he is still the biggest favorite to win the championship.

Underground betting has already started accepting bets. In addition to the odds for the Champion, there are different odds for what ranking each martial artist can achieve.

Besides Kholov, who topped the odds, many other players were close behind.

For example, Doc from the United States, Al and Chris from the European Union, Pogba from the African Union, Shahan and Omar from India, Sangji from Brazil, Feng Ni, Tang Wenbo, He Liu, and Su Mingyue from Huaxia are all on the list.

Lin Zhen, who topped the Slaughter List in the last Preliminary Round, is also on the odds list this time.

However, Lin Zhen's odds are not high, because last time Kholov revealed that Lin Zhen Xuan Ze to run away under his attack, which means that Lin Zhen is definitely no match for Kholov, and there should still be a considerable gap between them.

The God of War Arena is not Heavenly Garden; you can't just run around everywhere. Otherwise, Lin Zhen's speed advantage will be useless.

After all, in people's minds, Lin Zhen a Mind Power Master and Heavenly Speedster, and speed is his specialty.

Moreover, there is another important point: Lin Zhen is currently trapped in Wudalianchi by Yue Zhenhua, and it is still a question whether he can get out. If he can't even get out, then what is the point of talking about the God of War Arena?

Therefore, Lin Zhen's odds of winning the championship are very high, at 8 to 1.

This odds are second only to those unknown War God, which is almost an insult to the top of the Slaughter List in the last Preliminary Round.

But people thought it was normal, after all, with Yue Zhenhua at the Quasi-Star Realm, the chances of Lin Zhen coming out were really slim.

Another day passed, and there was still no news of Lin Zhen. Instead, most of the War God from Wudalianchi came out and brought news from the other side, saying that Yue Zhenhua and He Liu were still blocking the way there, and would not return until at least an hour before the God of War Arena started.

As soon as this news came out, Lin Zhen's odds were lowered again, becoming 1 to 15.

Now, there are less than 48 hours left before the start of the God of War Arena.

********

At the Fire Mountain, Little Warm was devouring the whole Swimming Crab that Lin Zhen had left for her.

Its mouth has a truly magical function, seemingly able to shrink large objects and then easily swallow and chew them. This crab, weighing several thousand pounds, was easily devoured by its small body, which weighed less than twenty pounds.

After eating his fill, the dog lazily rolled around on the ground, waiting for Lin Zhen to wake up.

Lin Zhen's transformation has been going on for three full days.

As noon approached, Little Warm, who had been squinting, suddenly perked up her ears and turned around to look at Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen, covered in a thick layer of volcanic ash, opened his eyes.

"Finally finished!"

Lin Zhen suddenly stood up from the ground, and with a burst of Dantian Qi, most of the dust was thrown out, like an exploding mound of earth.

After waving his arms a couple of times, Lin Zhen felt a surge of power within him. Although his cultivation level hadn't improved, his strength nearly doubled at that moment!

"What a Overlord Body Stone! Such incredible vitality! My speed, strength, and physical resilience have all increased dramatically. Although my Dantian Qi hasn't improved, and my Mental Power hasn't progressed either, this body's physical strength alone, without even using Dantian Qi, is enough to contend with a typical Advanced God of War!"

"Call!"

Little Warm pounced over and landed in Lin Zhen's arms, sticking out her tongue to lick him.

Lin Zhen laughed and dodged, "I really don't know what kind of Star River Beast you are. You really look like a little dog. I'll get you a pet license when I get back, otherwise it'll be hard to take you out."

After the God Transformation Calendar, pets were basically extinct, and they all became Mutated Beast. Even though things gradually stabilized later and new pets were bred, the government banned people from keeping pets anymore because pets could become a hidden danger at any time, and if they mutated, they could hurt people.

Only certain privileged classes can raise them, and they must obtain permits to ensure their legality. If they mutate, they must be immediately killed, and if they injure someone, they must pay huge sums of money in compensation.

Lin Zhen is now Advanced God of War and is qualified to keep pets. Little Warm looks like a lion dog and should be able to get a pet license.

"Let's go! Let's set off!"

Lin Zhen 'Lightning Wings appeared, and he flapped them as he headed straight for the Poison Mist Zone.

Little Warm, with its tongue lolling out, followed behind Lin Zhen. Lin Zhen was flying at high speed, and it actually thought Lin Zhen was playing with it, circling around Lin Zhen and running in circles, even faster than Lin Zhen.

Lin Zhen could only console himself, thinking that it was normal for the Star River Beast to be fast, since it could traverse outer space.

Little Warm didn't care about the Poison Mist at all and followed Lin Zhen through the Poison Mist Zone.

Yue Zhenhua, who was waiting on the shore of White Dragon Lake until he was about to grow mushrooms, suddenly stood up.

"Someone's coming out! Is it Lin Zhen?"

His eyes were shining; he was finally about to wait for Lin Zhen to come out. As long as he killed Lin Zhen, he could immediately advance to the Stellar Realm.

Suddenly, the Poison Mist parted, revealing a passage in the middle, where a person flapping long wings was rapidly approaching.

"It's you, Lin Zhen! You've finally decided to come out. Now that you're out, you can die!"

Yue Zhenhua had finally waited for this moment. Long Sword appeared in his hand, and Gale surrounded him. His Mental Power was constantly locked onto Lin Zhen to prevent him from Teleport, and he was preparing to deliver a heavy blow!

Lin Zhen also saw Yue Zhenhua, a cold smile appearing on her lips, "Yue Zhenhua, things are different now. Let me show you the taste of defeat!"

With Broken Jade Long Spear, Lin Zhen unleashed the Shattered Jade Spear, accelerating once more and instantly reaching Yue Zhenhua's side!

The Long Spear thrust forward, the Long Sword slashed down, and they collided. Yue Zhenhua's Long Sword was deflected, Lin Zhen's long hair flew wildly, and the spear tip continued forward, about to pierce his throat!

"You're dreaming!" Yue Zhenhua was terrified and used all his strength to block and push outwards.

The clash of spears and swords produced an unpleasant and grating sound.

Yue Zhenhua wielded his sword with both hands, concentrating almost all his strength into this one strike. The power of the peak of the Quasi-Star Realm erupted, but to his disbelief, Lin Zhen's Long Spear pressed down on him like a mountain!

His arms were trembling, his bones were trembling, and a surge of blood rushed to his chest. In just one second! In only one second, Yue Zhenhua, who had been fighting Lin Zhen head-on, was completely exhausted!

"Ah!"

Yue Zhenhua roared, unable to suppress a mouthful of blood, which shot into the sky. In his eyes, this mouthful of blood was like the sunset on the horizon, beautiful, but destined to end!

It's dawn. To celebrate the extra chapter for the book's Hall Master (Dongxue Qingcheng Wei Bi Han), Hei Tu has cleared his account. Tomorrow's guaranteed update may be a little late.
