Within the Dao Sect, atop the giant peak, Wang Yan, standing on the platform, stared intently at Lin Yun and said in a hoarse voice, "When I fight, I don't hold back. This time, I must win!"
"Me too!" Lin Yun's gaze was as calm as before, and his figure quickly vanished from his original spot.
The next moment, he appeared on the platform.
A wave of discussion immediately arose from the surrounding crowd.
"Who do you think will win?"
"I don't know."
If it weren't for Wang Yan's thunderous defeat of Ying Xiaoxiao, many might have still believed that Ying Wuxie would definitely win.
But after that battle just now, everyone began to feel uncertain.
Someone who had fought their way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood naturally had richer combat experience.
And this Ying Wuxie had just been revealed by the Sect Leader as a closed-door disciple. Although they had seen him defeat Qing Ye in two moves before, it wasn't necessarily impossible for Wang Yan to do the same if he went all out.
The people outside the arena were discussing non-stop.
Ying Xiaoxiao looked at the two figures in the arena, a hint of worry in her eyes. Ying Huanhuan, on the other hand, held her fair wrist and said, "Ying Wuxie will definitely win!"
Hearing this, Ying Xiaoxiao nodded gently, but the worry in her eyes did not diminish in the slightest.
The three Hall Masters on the seats all fixed their gazes on the platform.
Their faces showed different expressions.
Qi Lei, the Hall Master of the Heaven Hall, had a hint of worry on his face.
His gaze drifted towards Ying Xuanzi beside him.
Ying Xuanzi's expression was calm, without the slightest change.
From the strength he's shown so far, he shouldn't be much weaker than Wang Yan. At the very least, he has the strength of the Nine Yuan Nirvana Realm.
Thoughts flashed quickly through his mind, and Qi Lei, the Hall Master of the Heaven Hall, slowly calmed down.
Chen Zhen, sitting at the very edge, looked towards Ying Xuanzi, who nodded slightly.
Then he slowly stood up, his gaze sweeping across the entire arena, and said in a low voice, "This will be the final match of this year's Palace Examination. The winner will claim the ultimate championship, and at the same time, gain the authority to command the disciples during the Sect Tournament."
"If you are both ready, then begin!"
As his voice fell, an extremely powerful aura erupted from Wang Yan's body.
"Whoosh!"
"Black Demon Mirror, Black Demon Descent!"
*Boom!* Torrential black light surged wildly into that massive black shadow.
Then, in the area of the black shadow's face, two streaks of crimson light appeared, like a pair of blood-red eyes. Instantly, the pervasive Innate Yin Sha Qi surged violently.
The next moment, Wang Yan extended his palm and clenched it fiercely towards Lin Yun.
The Origin Power in this world seemed to be crushed by him. Then, the massive black shadow emitted two streaks of crimson light, directly locking onto Lin Yun.
*Boom!* As Wang Yan's palm angrily struck down, the mountain peak trembled violently.
This terrifying palm strike possessed the power to shatter mountains.
Seeing this, Lin Yun showed no panic. He slowly extended his palm, and deep yellow energy, like flames surging from the depths of the earth, surged wildly around him.
"Great Desolate Scripture - Desolate Strike!"
As the low voice fell, Lin Yun chopped with his palm, and a massive arc of light, hundreds of feet wide, suddenly appeared.
The speed at which the light arc swept through was astonishing. Everyone saw a line of light flash across their eyes. When they focused again, the light arc and the black palm had already collided.
*"Boom!"*
The massive light arc instantly destroyed the black palm and surged towards Wang Yan.
Extreme disbelief also appeared in Wang Yan's pupils.
"How is this possible?"
Thoughts flashed quickly, and the massive light arc had already fiercely struck his body.
The massive black shadow around his body also instantly disappeared.
"Pfft!"
Wang Yan spat out a large mouthful of blood and flew backward.
Lin Yun's figure flashed abruptly, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of him.
"You lost!"
An extremely terrifying black finger had already condensed before Wang Yan's eyes. As long as the former willed it, Wang Yan would die on the spot.
Wang Yan stared at Lin Yun in front of him for a long time, his eyes finally dimming. The two were not on the same level at all. The other party had defeated him with just one move.
He let out a deep breath and slowly said, "I lost!"
As his voice fell, the black finger in the sky instantly disappeared.
The crowd in the arena erupted in another round of excited shouts.
"Phew, defeating Wang Yan in one move, this strength is definitely no less than Yuan Gate's Chief Disciple Lin Yun."
"Our Dao Sect also has monstrous talents who can rival them."
"Ying Wuxie, truly remarkable!"
Standing in the Heaven Hall, Ying Huanhuan's face also broke into a smile.
"Sister, I told you he would win!"
At this moment, Ying Xiaoxiao's face also bloomed with a smile. "I didn't expect him to be so strong, defeating Senior Brother Wang Yan in one move. But how were you so sure he would win?"
"Ah, I just believed in him." Ying Huanhuan pulled Ying Xiaoxiao's fair wrist, a hint of a different emotion flickering in her eyes.
On the high platform seats, Chen Zhen smiled and looked at Ying Xuanzi in the central seat. A smile appeared in the latter's eyes.
"Announce the result!"
Hearing this, Chen Zhen nodded, stood up, and announced loudly, "The champion of this year's Palace Examination - Ying Wuxie!"
Chen Zhen's powerful voice echoed on the mountaintop, reaching everyone's ears. Then, the entire mountaintop instantly erupted in thunderous cheers, and the countless gazes were filled with deep awe.
This battle undoubtedly pushed Ying Wuxie's prestige among the younger generation of Dao Sect to its peak! Feeling the surrounding gazes, Lin Yun looked towards Ying Huanhuan's direction and smiled slightly.
Ying Huanhuan's eyes met his, and a slight blush appeared on her face.
Seeing this, Lin Yun chuckled. After glancing at Wang Yan not far away, his figure disappeared from the arena.
With the end of the Dao Sect's Palace Examination, Ying Wuxie's name spread throughout the entire Eastern Xuan Region.
He and Yuan Gate's Lin Yun became the most talked-about topic in the entire Eastern Xuan Region.
"I didn't expect this Dao Sect to also produce a monstrous talent capable of comprehending the Four Extraordinary Meridians. I just wonder who is stronger, him or Yuan Gate's Lin Yun."
"That's right, I wonder when they'll get to clash."
"Hahaha, I'm also looking forward to it quite a bit!"
Amidst this heated discussion, Dao Sect's Ying Wuxie and Yuan Gate's Lin Yun became the most sought-after young prodigies of the moment.
After the Palace Examination ended, Lin Yun couldn't wait to return to his mountain peak to claim the system's reward.
[Mission: Become the Dao Sect's First Disciple. Reward: Divine Power, Extracorporeal Incarnation. Completed, claim?]
"Claim!"
In an instant, an extremely vast amount of information poured into Lin Yun's mind like a sudden enlightenment.
Lin Yun immediately began to cultivate the mission.
[Mission: Cultivate Divine Power - Extracorporeal Incarnation 10 times. Reward: Divine Power, Extracorporeal Incarnation proficiency Minor Accomplishment.]
[Mission: Cultivate Divine Power - Extracorporeal Incarnation to Great Accomplishment. Reward: One bottle of Heaven Rank Nine Grade Spirit Transformation Pills.]
