Chapter 127 - Sparring Between The Two Great Guilds

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Injuries were inevitable during competitions. As long as there were no fatal casualties, everything was fine.

However, the members sent forward to compete by the [Hunter Group] were all proficient in dark-type skills. All of them either used poison or had some strange skills.

Some of the members of the [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets] that had fought against them and got defeated were unconscious after being poisoned whereas some of them fainted. They were severely injured. Therefore, the higher-leveled members of the [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets] were busy healing them. 

“However, when we went to fetch you, the higher-ups could no longer sit still. They have already recruited a member of the Special Forces—Leng Yuan. Leng Yuan is one of the elites of the [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets]. We will definitely be able to teach them a lesson,” Sakurai Longzi said as she waved her fist in the air.

“Let’s go and take a look. What skills do the members of the [Hunter Group] use?” Chen Feng asked after listening to what Pu Yunmo and Sakurai Longzi said.

The five of them arrived near the arena and joined the crowd of spectators.

As he got closer, Chen Feng realized that there were almost a hundred people from the four great guilds watching. Chen Feng could feel just how important the mystic realm of Mount Kunlun was to the four great guilds. 

Previously, a single guild had only sent out a few small teams to Gaotian Plains. However, there were already more than a hundred people near the platform.

They took a few steps forward after entering the crowd. 

The two people on stage also started moving.

Leng Yuan, an elite member of the [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets], was dressed in blue. He was different from the rest. He executed his earth attribute skills smoothly.

He held his staff in his hand, and many rocks the size of basketballs appeared in front of him with a wave of his right hand. They appeared like rain and quickly smashed towards the opposite side. He seemed to be capable of summoning endless rocks. 

After that, he raised his staff in front of him. A yellow whirlwind surged out from his staff and enveloped him tightly within it to protect him. 

However, the yellow-clothed man from the [Hunter Group] was not weak at all. Several streams of purple gas surged out from his body. The purple gas had a hint of black in it. A cloud of purple-black gas formed. The gas surged crazily like poisonous snakes and formed a dense purple net in front of him, which smashed all the rocks that were flying towards him.

Some of the rocks that were sent flying away happened to land in front of Leng Yuan, causing Leng Yuan to mess up his attacks. 

The man in yellow had a skull as his weapon. The skull’s hollow eyes shone with weak red light. It floated next to him. They still did not know what special skill he had.

Leng Yuan kept attacking his opponent while his opponent defended himself steadily on the platform. They were in a deadlock for a moment.

However, it was obvious that both of them were testing each other. Neither of them was being serious. Although it was a lively scene wherein both sides were exchanging blows, they did not feel like they were struggling at all. They were relaxed and unhurried.

Soon after, Leng Yuan stopped attacking his opponent with rocks. His mouth moved slightly, and he held his staff tightly with both hands as he waved it with great effort. He seemed to be consuming a large amount of stamina with each wave. His head was also dripping with sweat as he waved the staff around for some time. 

He placed his staff on the ground, and a huge wave of yellow mist erupted from the front of the staff and attacked the yellow-clothed man from the [Hunter Group]. Thick yellow mist enveloped the yellow-clothed man and formed a yellow ball. 

The yellow-clothed man from the [Hunter Group] expanded the diffusion range of the purplish-black gas and hid inside. The purple-black gas blocked the yellow fog outside.

The purplish-black gas kept colliding with the yellow fog. Both gases devoured each other like they were alive.

However, from the looks of it, the yellow fog that Leng Yuan was controlling had already suppressed the gas released by the yellow-clothed man from the [Hunter Group]. The purple-black gas was gradually shrinking.

When Sakurai Longzi saw Leng Yuan use the yellow fog, she explained to Chen Feng and the others, “Leng Yuan’s S-rank [Swallowing Gold School] skill is his signature skill. He can control the yellow corrosive fog. As long as his target comes into contact with it, it will corrode his target’s entire body as if it’s acid. However, this skill is extremely sinister. Leng Yuan has never used it before. From the looks of it, he doesn’t want his opponent to escape unscathed.”

When they heard about the effect of the skill, they were slightly shocked. The world was huge, and there were all sorts of skills and talents in it. In the future, they had to be careful when they fought with others to avoid getting into trouble.

Just as they were pondering upon it, the battle on the platform changed.

The purplish-black gas that was enveloped by the yellow mist suddenly shrank and became extremely sparse.

Moments later, the yellow-clothed man from the [Hunter Group], who was hiding in the purple-black gas, was revealed.

The skull next to him opened its mouth wide to absorb the dark purple gas, and its hollow eyes slowly turned blood red.

When Leng Yuan caught sight of this, his opponent suddenly destroyed his defense. Although he did not know what his intentions were, he did not hold back. He immediately controlled the yellow fog and made it invade his opponent while the purple-black gas was thinning.

“You don’t know how powerful I am, huh? Hehe!” The yellow-clothed man from the [Hunter Group] laughed in a sinister tone. 

After that, the man in yellow reached out his right hand and hit the floating skull once.

The skull expanded to the size of a wheel in an instant. The white skull’s hollow eyes glowed red, and its mouth opened and closed in a strange manner. 

After that, the purplish-black gas was completely absorbed by the skull as it opened and closed its mouth. It sucked up the yellow fog, which was outside its body, into its mouth as well.

As the fog rose up, the skull grew bigger.

Leng Yuan was shocked when he saw this. He made the yellow fog shrink back and tried not to give the skeleton any chance to grow.

However, it was obviously too late.

Most of the yellow fog had been consumed by the skull.

Leng Yuan controlled the yellow fog and made it shrink back.

Under the control of the yellow-clothed man from the [Hunter Group], the large skull let out a few scary whimpers and flew towards Leng Yuan.

It flew right before his eyes in an instant. Leng Yuan, who was controlling the yellow fog, jumped in shock and prepared to unleash his next skill in a hurry.

However, the skull suddenly opened its mouth, and a purplish-black pillar of light shot out of it. The light pierced through Leng Yuan’s protective whirlwind straight away. After that, Leng Yuan instantly fainted after being struck by the purplish-black pillar of light.

Seeing that the outcome had been decided, the members of the [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets] immediately rushed onto the stage and brought Leng Yuan down to receive treatment.

After Chen Feng finished watching the match, he could not help but feel a little odd. How could there be someone in the [Hunter Group] that knew how to use dark-type skills?

Although there were all kinds of people in the [Hunter Group] in his previous life, he had never heard of anyone who could use such weapons and skills.

A weapon made of skulls?

Was it considered a weapon?

Chen Feng was deep in thought.

As the others gradually dispersed, Chen Feng could only keep this doubt in his heart..
