Shocking the Entire Arena

"Kid, since you chose to attack me, don't blame this old man for showing no mercy! If you want someone to blame, blame your own arrogance."

At the Beast Horn Arena, Lei Bao gave a cold laugh. As he watched the swordlight slowly draw nearer, the ball of lightning in his palm crackled. One could only imagine how powerful this attack would be.

"You think too little of me, and too highly of yourself."

Lin Ge shook his head slightly, his calm voice brimming with confidence.

"You're asking for death!"

Lei Bao swung his palm, and the terrifying lightning collided violently with the swordlight.

The fierce surge of vital energy instantly erupted in a tremendous explosion. Savage currents of air swept in every direction, catching the nearby spectators in the blast and leaving them with minor injuries.

Whoosh!

Immediately afterward, a ball of lightning shot toward Lin Ge like an arrow loosed from a bow!

Lin Ge had been ready for this and didn't panic in the slightest. Gripping his sword, he thrust at the lightning!

Sword energy and lightning tore at each other, but the lightning quickly ran out of force and was soon defeated, dissipating into the air.

Whoosh!

At that moment, a figure swiftly closed in on Lin Ge. It was Lei Bao!

Since he had chosen to attack, Lei Bao had no intention of holding back. He planned to kill Lin Ge right there!

"Good! Come on!"

Lin Ge stood firm without fear and swung his sword at Lei Bao as he charged straight toward him. The swordlight, swift as lightning, instantly reached Lei Bao, leaving him no chance to dodge.

"Spirit Snake Palm!"

Lei Bao didn't hesitate either. His hands moved rapidly, his palms snaking forward as he collided head-on with the swordlight.

Unlike Lei Li, Lei Bao's Spirit Snake Palm was more than twice as powerful. He easily dispelled Lin Ge's swordlight!

"Die!"

After easily dispelling Lin Ge's sword energy, Lei Bao gathered power in his palm and struck at him.

Lin Ge wasn't a fool. Facing a veteran powerhouse of the Heaven Origin Realm, he had no confidence that he could easily withstand the attack. He drew power from the earth and abruptly retreated several miles.

Boom!

Lin Ge dodged, and Lei Bao's palm struck the stone platform, unleashing a violent explosion that left a crater a full zhang wide!

It all happened so fast that no one had time to react.

At that moment, Lin Zhentian was completely enraged. A boundless killing intent poured from his body.

"Lei Bao, you dare harm a disciple of the Lin Clan? I'll make the Lei Clan pay for this in blood!"

As he spoke, he was about to charge at Lei Bao, but a figure stepped in his way. It was Xie Qian, the head of the Xie Clan!

"Clan Head Lin, this is all a misunderstanding. Why go so far?"

Xie Qian said with a beaming smile, but he slowly shifted position, blocking Lin Zhentian's path and refusing to let him advance.

This was the best chance to kill Lin Ge, and Xie Qian didn't want anyone interrupting Lei Bao. So he had to stop Lin Zhentian.

"You're courting death!"

Lin Zhentian had already been consumed by rage. Seeing Xie Qian block him only fanned the flames, and he struck out with a punch without a second thought.

Xie Qian wasn't afraid in the least and met his blow with a palm.

The two powerful surges of vital energy collided, and the resulting shockwave completely shattered the nearby stone seats.

In just a few dozen seconds, several Heaven Origin Realm powerhouses had joined the fight. The other spectators were stunned, then hurriedly retreated.

They all knew that they couldn't stand against a clash between Heaven Origin Realm powerhouses. They had to get away quickly, lest they be caught in the crossfire.

"Xiao'er, what are you waiting for? Move!"

Seeing that he couldn't get the better of Xie Qian for the moment, Lin Zhentian turned toward the Lin Clan and roared.

After hearing him, Lin Xiao didn't hesitate. He instantly unleashed the power of the Heaven Origin Realm and darted toward Lin Ge.

"Damn it!"

Sensing Lin Xiao rapidly approaching, Lei Bao couldn't help cursing. He looked at Lin Ge with murderous intent as vital energy surged through his body once more.

"Not good!"

Lin Xiao's expression changed dramatically. He sped up again, while the vital energy within him gathered at full force.

"You little bastard, die!"

He unleashed Thunderbolt Flash once more, but this time the lightning blazed even brighter, and its crackling grew louder.

"Thirty-Six Swords of Heaven-Destroying Earth-Shattering, First Sword: One Sword Seals the Throat!"

Facing Lei Bao's frenzied attack, Lin Ge didn't dare be careless. He hurriedly poured all his vital energy into his iron sword.

As the vital energy poured into it, the iron sword radiated dazzling blue light. Savage sword energy gathered along the blade, then a streak of swordlight shot from its tip. The swordlight was not only incredibly fast but immensely powerful. Everything in its path was effortlessly pierced—even the massive boulders.

"Rumble!!!"

In an instant, a blinding light illuminated the entire Beast Horn Arena, forcing everyone to shut their eyes.

Then a figure was blasted several miles through the air before finally managing to stop.

When everyone could make out the figure's face, they were all stunned. The one who had been sent flying wasn't Lin Ge, but Lei Bao, the current head of the Lei Clan!

A veteran Heaven Origin Realm powerhouse had been forced back at full strength by a youth who had only just reached the Heaven Origin Realm. No one had expected this outcome.

Meanwhile, Lin Ge had nearly exhausted all the vital energy in his body. His face was deathly pale, and his body was so weak that he looked ready to collapse at any moment.

"Are you all right?"

At that very moment, Lin Xiao reached Lin Ge's side and firmly caught him before he could fall.

"I'm all right."

Lin Ge gave a bitter smile and spoke in a very weak voice.

"Damn it! I'm going to kill you today!"

Having been driven back by a youth, Lei Bao's expression was beyond ugly, and the killing intent surrounding him grew even more intense.

Since becoming a Heaven Origin Realm powerhouse, he had never suffered such humiliation. His fury had already made him lose his reason.

"Lei Bao, are you trying to start an all-out war between the Lin and Lei Clans?"

Lin Xiao's expression was grave as he looked at Lei Bao, who had lost all sense of reason.

Though he had regained his Heaven Origin Realm cultivation, his strength had yet to return to its peak. He was still outmatched by Lei Bao and the others.

If Lin Xiao were alone, he wouldn't be afraid in the slightest. Even if he were no match for Lei Bao, Lei Bao couldn't do much to him. But with Lin Ge there, everything was different. With no other choice, Lin Xiao could only shout, hoping to bring Lei Bao back to his senses.

Clearly, Lin Xiao's roar had worked. Lei Bao regained a little of his reason and was no longer quite so murderous, though his expression remained ugly.

Meanwhile, seeing that Lin Ge was unharmed, Lin Zhentian felt some of the tension ease from his heart. But his gaze toward Xie Qian remained cold.

Xie Qian completely ignored Lin Zhentian's gaze. He glared coldly at Lin Ge, cursing Lei Bao as useless in his heart—he couldn't even beat a little brat.

The sudden battle between the Lei, Xie, and Lin Clans left the already sparsely populated Beast Horn Arena in utter silence. No one dared let their guard down. They stared fixedly at one another, wary of a sudden attack.
