Chapter 164 (1/2)
The battle in the vicinity of the volcano didn’t draw to an end until the darkness fell.
In this battle, more than 130 overmatches of the Voodoo-barbarian Tribe died, and the Water Barbarian Branch suffered the heaviest losses. Over 30 practitioners of the empire were dead or wounded.
The day was the 13th day after the Bloodthirsty Camp’s trainees entered the Demon-cloud Ridge war zone. Lin Xun had left with plenty of trophies before the battle was over.
Almost simultaneously, the news of the battle near the volcano spread like wildfire.
……
In a mountain forest-
The graceful figure of Bai Lingshi flew through the darkness. The moment she encountered the strong Voodoo-barbarians along the road, they fell onto the ground dead almost immediately, never being in her way.
A few moments later, when Bai Lingshi met one of the trainees who just joined the volcano battle, she stopped suddenly.
“A young overmatch killed five top Voodoo-barbarians in a move with his saber?”
She quickly learned the news about Lin’s battle, and fell into a trance.
“It seems that not only has he broken through into the ninth level of the Martial Realm, but also has mastered a brand-new terrifying battle technique in the terms of the Martial Tao…”
Bai Lingshi soon figured out a rough situation of Lin Xun. If Lin Xun knew this, he would be shocked by her accurate judgment.
When she embarked on her journey again, she had already made a decision that if Lin Xun wasn’t sifted out, she would mount a challenge to him after returning to the Bloodthirsty Camp.
This was what she had promised, and she never forgot it.
……
“Except Bai Lingshi, Lee Duxing, and Zhangsun Heng, one more interesting guy finally shows up.”
In another area, Zhao Yin wore a faintly discernible smile. “Hope Lin Xun can participate in the final assessment at the end of the year!”
…
“The strange changes of the Water Barbarians are caused by Lin Xun?”
Shi Yu gave a bitter smile upon hearing this news.
A couple of days ago, he had predicted based on various signs that there would be a storm. Thus, he didn’t involve himself in in order to avoid risks.
To his surprise, Lin Xun was behind this storm!
He felt relieved spontaneously when learning that Lin didn’t die in the disturbance. However, after he knew more about the battle, he couldn’t help but fall in a daze.
Alone, Lin Xun besieged circle upon circle killed more than 50 Voodoo-barbarians?
With only one strike, Lin Xun annihilated five top Voodoo-barbarians of the young generation?
How could Lin’s combat effectiveness become so high after about 15 days since Lin entered the Demon-cloud Ridge?
Shi Yu felt astounded.
“Awesome.”
At this moment, Lee Qiu, who had been following Shi Yu, gently spoke one word after he kept silent for a long time.
“Lin Xun is virtually abnormal!”
Shi Yu sighed, and then a trace of resoluteness flashed across his eyes, “But, if he thinks he’ll be the final winner in the bet, he’ll be too naive!”
Lee Qiu knew that there was a bet among Shi Yu, Ning Meng, and Lin Xun. Having heard Shi’s words, he couldn’t help but realize that Lin’s excellent performance put a lot of pressure on Shi.
…
“Damn it! Lin Xun was so lucky that he could encounter so many Voodoo-barbarian bastards. If I were him, I would have gained more military merits!”
When Ning Meng learned the news, he felt surprised and envious.
Though he said that, Ning Meng felt a little proud subconsciously. Since Lin Xun was his friend, wasn’t it quite normal that Lin could obtain such an impressive accomplishment?
…
“Is Lin Xun that powerful?”
“How could he do this?”
“If all this is true, doesn’t it mean that the guy’s combat effectiveness is high enough for him to be a matched rival of Bai Lingshi, Zhao Yin, Zhangsun Heng, Lee Duxing…”
“Ha ha, someone should want to grab Lin’s military merits, which is greatly absurd!”
“Lin’s rise can’t be stopped!”
In all areas of the Demon-cloud Ridge, as the Bloodthirsty Camp’s trainees learned the news, they couldn’t help but feel shocked, bursting into a variety of discussions and sighs.
…
The empire’s Reshahar Army was stationed in the south of the Demon-cloud Ridge while the troops of Voodoo-barbarian Tribe were stationed in the north.
It was late at night now.
