The Prodigies War

Chapter 372 Spirit Obliteration Flower Rain Art

Lin Xun!

Many people in the audience were shocked to see that Lin Xun actually had the courage to battle. They had to admire him for that. At least in terms of courage, Lin Xun was worthy of their respect.

However, a hint of a gloating smile touched most people’s lips when they saw him appear. They felt he was just going to bring humiliation to himself.

Gazes of pity, disdain, contempt and ridicule fell on Lin Xun like a huge net.

Amidst those countless gazes, Lin Xun indifferently stepped onto the platform. His figure was slender and graceful. Clad in a bright white robe and with his jet black hair loosely tied behind, he exuded a calm aura and looked like he was taking a stroll around a courtyard.

It was many people’s first time seeing Lin Xun, but his extraordinary bearing surprised them.

A flash of realization struck them. If Hua Wuyou’s opponent is too weak, it wouldn’t be a good match to watch.

Only if Lin Xun was strong would they see Hua Wuyou’s truly remarkable abilities.

Of course, even so, many people still weren’t optimistic about his situation. They only hoped that he wouldn’t be too weak.

In one of the box seats, Shi Yu, Ning Meng, Ye Xiaoqi and Gong Ming sat together, watching Lin Xun come onto the platform.

”To be honest, I’m really worried for him,” Shi Yu sighed.

“Me too,” Ning Meng agreed, his expression grim. “Although Hua Wuyou is obnoxious, she is indeed very strong.”

Although Gong Ming and Ye Xiaoqi hadn’t said a word, their expressions were just as nervous as Shi Yu and Ning Meng.

At that moment, an old man walked into the box seat and said in a low voice, “Young Master, I have investigated, other than the Qin and Hanliang Families, influential figures from the other five clans have come to watch the duel in the Sky Martial Arena.”

“In addition, there are countless people from mid- and low-level aristocratic clans.”

“I’m certain that Bai Lingxi and Zhao Yin have also come. There are also some powerful and fierce characters from Qinglu Academy.”

“Because so many different clans and sects have come to watch the battle, it’s hard to know whether they are here for Hua Wuyou or Young Master Lin Xun.”

Shi Yu’s expression remained unchanged. He had already predicted the answer. After all, there were too many cultivators present in Sky Martial Arena, and many of them were young descendants of aristocratic clans. It was no doubt difficult to find out why they came.

However, the old man’s next sentence made Shi Yu narrow his eyes.

“I should also mention that I heard an influential person from the imperial family also came!”

Shi Yu trembled inwardly. The battle even attracted the attention of the imperial family?

“I knew this matter wasn’t that simple!”

Shi Yu’s eyes lit up. “It’s just a match between two people of the younger generation. How can it attract the attention of so many clans? The reason has to be related to Lin Xun!”

Ning Meng couldn’t help but ask, “What do you mean?”

The old man had already quietly left.

“Everyone in the world thinks that Lin Xun angered the Song and Hua families in one night. They think he is fearless and has a death wish, but they don’t know that Lin Xun has already become enemies with the Chi Family before he came to the Forbidden City!” There was a deep look in Shi Yu’s eyes.

“I have been wondering why the Chi Family suddenly stopped attacking Lin Xun after he came to the Forbidden City but, after looking at the situation now, I realize that there are many hidden secrets behind this.”

“And these hidden secrets have to be related to Lin Xun. After all, Hua Wuyou wouldn’t attract the attention of so many people no matter how dazzling she is.”

After hearing Shi Yu’s analysis, Ning Meng, Gong Ming and Ye Xiaoqi were a little bewildered that there were so many unknowns behind the duel.

……

Lin Xun came to a stop around ten feet away from Hua Wuyou.

“I’m a little surprised that you dare to come to fight. But if you don't, you will not only destroy yourself but also everything you have. You made a wise choice,” said Hua Wuyou indifferently.

Her bright eyes were biting-cold as she locked them on Lin Xun, and her overbearing presence exuded a deterring power. Her gaze would have made many other cultivators scared out of their wits and collapse on the ground. However, Lin Xun didn’t seem affected in any way. “Did you arrange the duel to spew such nonsense?”

He seemed very rude.

Some of the more sensitive cultivators couldn't help but smack their lips together. Does Lin Xun not want to live anymore? He is so fearless! Is he not afraid of infuriating Hua Wuyou?

The commotion in the arena subsided, and everyone was intently watching Lin Xun’s and Hua Wuyou’s every move.

However, Hua Wuyou’s expression remained unchanged as she said nonchalantly, “It’s clear that you’re prepared to die. This proves that you’re not stupid. To tell you the truth, I have no intention of letting you leave here alive.”

Everyone in the audience inhaled sharply. They knew Hua Wuyou would absolutely do what she said!

Shi Yu, Ning Meng and the others turned ashen-faced. It would be troublesome if Hua Wuyou intended to kill Lin Xun!

The faces of Lin Tianlong, Lin Nianshan and Lin Pingdu grew overcast. They didn’t want Lin Xun to be killed as it wouldn’t benefit them in taking charge of Mind Cleansing Peak in any way. After all, if Lin Xun died, the imperial family would take back control of Mind Cleansing Peak, and the collateral branches of the Lin Clan wouldn’t be able to return to Mind Cleansing Peak.

”So, this duel is a battle of life and death. Either you die or I die.” Hua Wuyou’s voice was chilling.

From the beginning to the end, there wasn’t a ripple of emotion on her face. It was as though she was staring at a dead person.

“Battle of life and death?” Although Lin Xun was surprised, he couldn’t help laughing in his heart. Does Hua Wuyou think she can win against me?

“You didn’t think that I went to such great lengths to challenge you to a battle here just to give you a beating?” Hua Wuyou’s bright eyes were filled with malice. “Don’t think that luck will be on your side. No one who has angered my Hua Family can continue to live in the world! You can only atone for your sins with death.”

Everyone knew that Hua Wuyou was determined to kill in the duel! Many people looked at Lin Xun with pity.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xun grinned, looking pleased. “That’s good.”

Many people couldn’t help but wonder whether he was truly confident or if he had given up all hopes because he knew he would die.

“Hahaha, Lin Xun, you deserve it!”

In a box seat, Hua Wuhen laughed sinisterly. Lin Xun had violently beat him up on the street and made him lose all face. He would never be able to raise his head again if Lin Xun was alive.

It would no longer be a problem if Hua Wuyou managed to kill Lin Xun for him.

“Just you wait, after killing you, I will destroy Lin Xuefeng to vent my anger!” Hua Wuhen gritted his teeth, looking sinister.

“Stop talking nonsense. Let’s start the battle.”

In the arena, a sky blue glow shrouded Lin Xun while his robe billowed around him and his aura changed. It now had an indomitable and superior spirit.

Many people’s eyes lit up. That aura...isn’t something that ordinary Spirit Sea cultivators can possess. Although the kid is haughty, his background isn’t bad.

“Since you’re in a hurry to seek death, I will fulfill your wish”

Her indifferent voice echoed as her fiery red figure flashed. She soared and drew her slender and fair fingers across the air.

Sssssi!

A shower of blood-red flowers rained down, fluttering in the air, and dying it a gorgeous red hue.

“Spirit Obliteration Flower Rain Art! One of the six great cultivation arts of the Hua Clan!”

The audience gasped. They didn’t expect Hua Wuyou to launch a killing move right away.

The rain of flowers in the sky looked soft and gentle, but it produced a destructive power upon contact and caused irreparable damage to one’s spirit.

Evidently, Hua Wuyou didn’t want to waste time or give Lin Xun even a chance to struggle! After all, so many people were watching the battle. The longer the battle dragged out, the more shameful it felt to Hua Wuyou!

Rumble—

Flowers drifted in the air, making it look like blood had washed the sky. It was beautiful, charming, but filled with endless murderous spirit.

However, Lin Xun didn’t dodge or evade her attack. His body erupted with thousand wisps of pale blue light. They rapidly burrowed into his fist before he punched out with explosive force.

Sea Splitting Destruction!

The fist power was as powerful as a tsunami as it crushed the void and pulverized the flowers that filled the sky.

Everyone was stunned into silence. What fist art is that? How can it be so strong to dissolve the Spirit Obliteration Flower Rain Art?

It seems like Lin Xun is quite capable.

“Hmph!”

A cold glint flashed in Hua Wuyou’s eyes. Her silky hair danced in the air, and a murderous look crossed her face. Her slender and fair hand streaked across the air again.

A delicate flower bloomed in the air like a drop of blood. Its beauty was breathtaking, but it seemed capable of seizing one’s spirit. Many cultivators fell into a trance-like state, affected by the power of the move.

Lin Xun had lit up seven hundred and twenty spirit stars in his mind-sea. His spirit had long been tempered to a terrifyingly sturdy state. How would he be affected by it?

Calmly, he leapt up and performed the Soul Shattering Destruction.

Boom!

Who would have thought that before the fist neared the flower, the beautiful flower ruptured and shot out a splash of red that instantly engulfed the area?

It was as though a sea of blood was about to drown the world!

It was the Mirror Flower Blood Sea, one of the ultimate moves of the Spirit Obliteration Flower Rain Art. The flower was like a mirror of illusions, containing endless murderous spirits!

Instantly, Lin Xun trembled all over and then a scorching and terrifying force slammed into him until he was stumbling back.

Everyone gasped. Has Lin Xun been defeated already?

Shi Yu, Ning Meng, and the others felt their hearts leap into their throats, and their bodies tensed.
