The Prodigies War
chapter-850

Tang Chuan was indeed not on the same level as Demon God Lin. Otherwise, how would he have lost so tragically?

The battle had only begun but he was defeated after a flip of a hand. He was no different from an ant trying to shake a tree!

Gasps constantly rang out from the audience.

In the past, many people were skeptical of the rumor that Demon God Lin was incredibly powerful. After all, they had never heard of someone like him in the West Infinity World, so it was hard for them to believe such rumors.

But now, following the killing of Sha Lu and the tragic defeat of Tang Chuan, everyone came to realize that, even if the rumors might be a little exaggerated, Demon God Lin’s strength was unquestionable!

Sha Liuchan’s expression dramatically changed, and his eyes flashed a cold look.

He hoped to use Tang Chuan’s hand to test Lin Xun’s strength, but he never thought that this would be the outcome.

Tang Chuan was defeated before he could even get near Lin Xun to test his strength. This indicated that Demon God Lin could be ranked at the top among the genius talents. But whether or not he could be called peerless remained to be confirmed.

The group of genius talents who criticized and mocked Lin Xun earlier also shared the same thought as Sha Liuchan.

None of them ever imagined Demon God Lin would be so powerful and tyrannical!

Meanwhile, Bai Fengliu was quivering with excitement. He had already inscribed all the scenes he witnessed just now, but soon, his face clouded over.

This was because he found that many cultivators in the audience had, just like him, recorded the earthshaking battle, but in different ways.

In other words, his news wouldn’t be exclusive, and it wouldn’t achieve the effect that he wanted.

On the other hand, Yue Jianming was very moved. From the first moment he laid eyes on Lin Xun in Ziniu Mountain, he already knew that he was extraordinary.

He just didn’t think that, in less than half a year, his strength would grow to such a heaven-defying level.

“He won like that?” On the ninth floor of the Four Seasons Pavilion, successors of the Longevity Land opened their eyes wide in disbelief.

“Senior brothers and sisters, we’ve agreed not to make a big fuss.” Standing by the window, Bai Lingxi had an indifferent expression on her beautiful face, but her voice was tinged with mocking.

Even if she had already expected this outcome, she was still a little surprised because the present Lin Xun was completely different from when he was in the Ziyao Empire.

“Hmph, he just defeated an ordinary character within the genius talent figures. What’s all the fuss about?” The charming woman in a fire-colored crane cloak snorted coldly. “Any one of the successors of the Longevity Land can easily do the same. This doesn’t prove that Demon God Lin is strong; it only shows that his opponent is too weak!”

The others echoed, “That’s right, Senior Sister Yanxia is right.”

Bai Lingxi didn’t retort, but she secretly said to herself, If Tang Chuan is that bad, how would he be regarded as a genius talent? And how could he possibly be eligible to enter the Four Seasons Pavilion?

But having said that, Bai Lingxi couldn’t deny that many of the successors from the Longevity Land could defeat Tang Chuan.

Strictly speaking, to an ancient and transcendent behemoth such as the Longevity Land, a character like Tang Chuan wouldn’t be classified as a genius talent. He could at most only be regarded as a top figure of the younger generation.

……

Everyone was in stunned silence, only Tang Chuan was groaning in pain. He had suffered such severe injuries that his body constantly twitched and he couldn’t get back up.

Compared with his previous arrogant and aggressive attitude, the difference was too great.

“Whether I Am a Saint or Sinner, only history will tell. The ancient sages are right. Do you think trash like you is worthy of provoking and treating me with disdain?” Lin Xun was calm and composed, and his black eyes were devoid of emotion. But in other people’s eyes, he was oozing with superiority and strength.

“I heard that when you were young, you despicably hooked up with your sister-in-law. How could someone as disgusting as you be able to call yourself a genius talent?”

Lin Xun’s words sparked an uproar in the audience, and everyone’s gazes immediately changed as they looked at Tang Chuan.

It would be outrageous if it was indeed true!

“You—you—you—don’t accuse me!” Tang Chuan, who was already filled with utmost shame and embarrassment from the defeat, spewed out a jet of blood and fainted on the spot when he heard that.

Everyone sighed. Regardless of whether or not Tang Chuan had done something so outrageous when he was young, his humiliating defeat today would already make it difficult for him to lift his head in the West Infinity World in the future!

In other words, after experiencing this tragic defeat, Tang Chuan, a genius figure, was doomed to lose his standing and be removed from the ranks of genius talents!

In the future, whenever one mentioned Tang Chuan in the future, one could not avoid talking about his utter defeat at the hands of Demon God Lin. This would undoubtedly become a psychological trauma for him.

Unless he could rise one day and defeat Lin Xun. Otherwise, his defeat would become a tag on him that he couldn’t shake off and would forever follow him on his cultivation path.

“Your turn now!”

While everyone was sighing, Lin Xun suddenly turned around and clapped his chilling lightning-like eyes on Sha Liuchan.

Demon God Lin took the initiative to attack!

Many people were both surprised, frightened, and unprecedentedly excited. That was the style of the rumored demon god!

In the past, Lin Xun had never taken the initiative to attack despite his domineering and overpowering attacks. But now, he pointed his weapon at Sha Liuchan!

“There’s going to be a good show. Sha Liuchan is not like Tang Chuan. He is a true peerless genius talent who has long made a name for himself in the West Infinity World. He could be said to be invincible with his amazing combat strength.”

“The Dao Lantern Festival hasn’t even started yet, but earth-shattering showdowns have already broken out because of the appearance of Demon God Lin. What a surprise!”

“I wonder if Demon God Lin will be as strong as he was before.”

It was buzzing like never, and more and more cultivators were rushing over upon hearing the news. The nearby streets and areas had become so packed that not even a drop of water could trickle through.

Farther away, some cultivators even stood atop tall buildings or hovered in the air to watch the situation closely.

This was understandable. In the past, who would ever dare to stir up trouble in front of the Four Seasons Pavilion during the Dao Lantern Festival?

However, it was different today. Demon God Lin, who had been repeatedly causing sensations in the West Infinity World, had suddenly appeared and clashed with a group of genius talents in front of the Four Seasons Pavilion. How would such a huge event not attract worldwide attention?

While everyone was stirred up, Sha Liuchan’s expression turned cold.

Before he could settle the score with Lin Xun for killing his subordinate, Lin Xun challenged him to a battle on his own initiative. He saw this as the greatest provocation!

“Do you think that no one can do anything to you just because you defeated Tang Chuan?” Sha Liuchan’s voice was ice-cold and tinged with murderous intent like the chilly air from an ice cave.

A wave of terrifying qi and power rushed out of his tall and built body, chilling many cultivators to the bone as it spread and bringing the commotion to a sudden halt. They felt incredibly oppressed like they had fallen into an ice cave.

He was no doubt a genius talent!

He only mobilized his qi, but he was already able to suppress the universe and awe everyone into silence. Based on aura and bearing alone, he had far surpassed his peers.

“You have a death wish! Hurry up and kneel and apologize!” The experts from the Ocean Shark Clan yelled with dark and unpleasant expressions as they stared at Lin Xun like he was dead meat.

“It seems like your friend is in trouble now.”

“Sha Liuchan is known to be very strong. Even if we were to go up against him, we can’t guarantee what the outcome will be. Perhaps only Senior Brother Yu Lingkong can easily suppress him.”

“Demon God Lin is about to meet with misfortune. Junior Sister Lingxi, you must not be so impulsive to rescue him. We don’t want to be affected by your actions later.”

In the Four Seasons Pavilion, the Longevity Land successors spoke out one after another, resuming their superior attitude mingled with mocking looks.

“Just wait and see.” Bai Lingxi’s expression remained unchanged.

Meanwhile, the genius talents gathered around the Four Seasons Pavilion watched on with looks of excitement mixed with pity.

Does that guy think that he can challenge a peerless genius talent just because he defeated Tang Chuan?

Not even other peerless genius talents from the West Infinity World would recklessly provoke other peerless genius talents before the Dao Lantern Festival kicked off!

And Sha Liuchan was such a peerless genius talent!

Some genius talents were annoyed about Tang Chuan’s defeat, so when Lin Xun directed his attack at Sha Liuchan, they couldn’t help gloating.

This also indicated that Lin Xun’s overwhelming suppression of Tang Chuan didn’t instill a shred of fear in them.

This was normal. Anyone regarded as a genius talent would have unusually high pride and self-confidence. Their strong minds wouldn’t be influenced so easily.

Lin Xun ignored the clamorous discussion and locked his eyes on Sha Liuchan. “There might be someone in this world who can deal with me, but it definitely won’t be you,” he spoke casually, but he was as strong as before.

“Haha, you have a death wish!” Sha Liuchan smiled, but his voice was loaded with blood-curdling murderous intent. He could no longer contain his intent to kill in his heart.

However, before he could make a move, a thunderous voice drowned out the commotion in the streets.

“Friend of the Ocean Shark Clan, don’t do anything yet. The young master of the Zhongli Clan is rushing here at full speed. We ask you to hand over Demon God Lin for my young master to take care of!”

Following the voice, a giant beast moved across the air like a mountain. Its roar shook the sky, and blasts of foul wind assaulted the senses. Cultivators who were unable to dodge in time were blasted across the air, screaming tragically.

It was a terrifying black jade dragon elephant acting as a mount. Its eyes were as big as millstones, and its hooves were like stone pillars.

A group of young men and women was sitting on its back as it rushed this way.

The cultivators hurriedly moved aside to make way from them.

They recognized that the group belonged to the Zhongli Clan, and the young master they spoke of was no doubt Zhongli Wuji, who was known throughout the West Infinity World for his terrifying accomplishments.
