CHAPTER 439: CHAPTER 420: DEFEAT

"You cannot break through my defense!"

The Ninth Princess spoke, her voice soft and sweet, revealing her young age.

"Is that so?"

Huo Ling neither agreed nor disagreed. His aura surged once again, and his Sword Intent fully erupted, shredding the surrounding air into pieces.

"Take ten more strikes from me!"

Huo Ling roared, resembling a Heavenly God, his long sword swung like a titanic blade, mercilessly slashing in a frenzy, and the crimson Sword Light rampaged, obliterating everything.

Boom boom boom!!!

In an instant, the entire Battle Platform was engulfed in crimson Sword Light, transforming it into a sea of fire.

The Ninth Princess defended with all her might, her body enveloped in endless petals. As the Sword Light struck, the petals continuously shattered and then reformed.

Moments later, the Powerful Energy dissipated, the Sword Light vanished, and calm returned to the Battle Platform.

The Ninth Princess was unharmed.

"What?"

Huo Ling’s expression changed. Throughout the Martial Arts Arena, everyone’s expression changed, except for those from the Tianhong Imperial Family, who looked unfazed and even smiled.

The combat prowess displayed by the Ninth Princess was now on par with Huo Ling’s.

"It’s my turn to attack after your numerous moves!"

The Ninth Princess declared crisply, enveloped by eight petals, she flew directly towards Huo Ling.

"Blossoms of Hundred Flowers!"

The Ninth Princess raised her hands, and from the palms, petals burst forth sharply, shooting towards Huo Ling.

These petals formed a sea of flowers with immense power, shredding the air into fragments.

"Extinguish!"

Huo Ling shouted, his long sword slashing fiercely, the fire waves ravaged, the Sword Light soared, shattering petals one by one.

Boom boom boom boom!!!

The two continuously exchanged blows, quickly battling over three hundred moves. Huo Ling hardly defended; his approach was ferocious attacks, with his long sword annihilating everything in its path.

On the other hand, the Ninth Princess was even stronger. Encased in several petals, she possessed invincible defense. Despite ten thousand attacks from Huo Ling, she remained untouched.

The entire Martial Arts Arena fell silent, and even the battles on the other four Battle Platforms temporarily halted.

"Huo Ling is going to lose!"

Lin Feng shook his head and said to Hong Lian beside him.

"Oh? Lin Feng, can you tell?"

Hong Lian was incredibly surprised, looking at Lin Feng curiously.

Lin Feng nodded, "Huo Ling’s attacks are too violent and consume a lot of True Yuan. He’s already running low on internal True Yuan!"

Lin Feng’s perception was exceptionally sharp, feeling that Huo Ling’s aura had slightly weakened compared to before.

"Hmph! Don’t spout nonsense if you don’t understand!"

Just then, a cold snort sounded nearby, and Lin Feng turned to see Luo Ning ranked forty-first on the Hundred Extremes List.

Lin Feng ignored him, knowing the facts would soon reveal themselves without needing explanation.

Indeed, after dozens more exchanges on the Battle Platform, Huo Ling’s aura greatly diminished, completely losing the upper hand.

Huo Ling’s internal True Yuan was now less than ten percent.

On the Battle Platform, Huo Ling’s expression was horrendous. He hadn’t expected to be dominated by a newcomer even before clashing with Ao Wushuang.

"Fire Cloud Covering the Sky!"

Huo Ling roared, his sword swung out, setting the entire Battle Platform ablaze with fierce flames, the sharp Sword Light darting through the flames, aiming at the Ninth Princess.

But the Ninth Princess, wrapped in beautiful petals, impervious to water and fire, unbreakable by any method, had already secured an unbeatable position.

"Immortal Flower Slash!"

The Ninth Princess called out delicately, a circular swath of ten-meter-wide petals cutting through the Void, speeding like lightning.

Huo Ling tried to resist, but his depleted True Yuan failed him, and he was directly knocked off the Battle Platform by the petals, falling ten miles away.

"My God! Huo Ling lost!"

"The Huo Ling who had hopes to challenge Ao Wushuang has lost!"

"This lady is too powerful, with invincible defense. If her defense can’t be broken, it’s impossible to defeat her!"

The crowd was in an uproar, unable to believe that Huo Ling could lose, and the Elders of Fire Cloud Mountain were gaping in shock.

Huo Ling, previously ranked fourth on the last Hundred Extremes List, in this edition, only the first-ranked Ao Wushuang and the third-ranked Wu Sheng could slightly surpass him.

As for the second-ranked genius, he had already passed the age of twenty-five, losing eligibility to compete.

But now, the powerful Huo Ling had been defeated by this suddenly emerging Ninth Princess!

How could it not shock people!

Hong Qingtian smiled faintly and nodded slightly. He had long known his sister’s strength, which had already surpassed his.

Roar!

Dragon Fortune over eighty Zhang long on Huo Ling was immediately swallowed by thirty Zhang by the Ninth Princess’s Dragon Fortune.

After devouring Huo Ling’s Dragon Fortune, the Ninth Princess’s Dragon Fortune skyrocketed to over forty Zhang, emitting a dazzling golden glow.

The golden glow indicated that the Ninth Princess’s Dragon Fortune had entered the top hundred in the arena, thus entering the Hundred Extremes List.

However, with the current size of the Ninth Princess’s Dragon Fortune, it was enough to enter the top twenty of the Hundred Extremes List.

In the Western Battle Platform area.

Lin Feng’s lips curled into a smile, and he turned his head to look at Luo Ning not far away.

Luo Ning displayed a shocked expression. Seeing Lin Feng looking his way, his face involuntarily reddened.

"You guessed right!"

Luo Ning said lightly.

"Guessed?"

Lin Feng shook his head and chuckled.

At that moment, the Hundred Extremes Token on Lin Feng shivered, and Luo Ning’s token vibrated simultaneously.

The two were startled and then looked at each other, their sharp gazes instantly colliding.

This battle, the two of them were opponents.

Swoosh!

Lin Feng and Luo Ning soared, landing on the Battle Platform simultaneously.
