Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Chapter 1023 - 916: Melodramatic Saga

Some of the martial artists present, after observing Duan Gujin's moves in secret, judged that his strength was indeed formidable.The elder responsible for the test first let Duan Gujin rest for a while, then allowed the martial artists below the stage to continue challenging him.

After Duan Gujin had consecutively defeated thirteen challengers, the martial artists below the stage became excited, noticing that Duan Gujin's face had turned somewhat pale.

"Kid, you need to hold on! I'm telling you now, you have a chance to take some Elixir Pills to replenish your Primordial Power. Do you want it?"

The elder responsible for the test said to Duan Gujin seriously.

"Of course, I want it!"

Upon hearing the elder's words, Duan Gujin immediately became interested.

"Very well, this time the test rules were unanimously agreed upon by us Academy Elders. The rules are set by us, and I have just told you that you can only consume the Elixir Pills we give you with permission. This is real! Here's the Elixir Pill for you, take it quickly!"

The elder waved his right hand and took out an Elixir Pill from the storage ring, passing it to Duan Gujin.

Duan Gujin took the Elixir Pill, used his Divine Sense to inspect it internally, and after ensuring there was no problem, he consumed it.

Before swallowing the Elixir Pill, he held it high above his head, so that the other elders responsible for the test could see it, as he didn't want them to think he was cheating.

After consuming the Elixir Pill, a strong Medicinal Power quickly spread to every cell in his body, nourishing his body and rapidly restoring his Primordial Power.

The elder quickly announced loudly, "Everyone, I just gave this person named Duan Gujin an Elixir Pill. After he consumed it, his Primordial Power will quickly recover. If you want to defeat him, you better act quickly! Anyone who wishes to get on the stage, please raise your hands so I can see you!"

After a while, the elder selected someone and let them get on the stage.

"It's him! Nangong Huo!"

Yu Man and Gu Xiaoyue below the stage both recognized that the person who went up was Nangong Huo.

"Damn! Nangong Huo has always had an interest in me, but I've always rejected him. I assume he must have heard the rumors about me and Duan Gujin. I wonder how he'll deal with Duan Gujin!"

Yu Man, with knitted brows, had interacted with Nangong Huo before. She knew he was by no means an amiable person, narrow-minded and ruthless.

Looking at Duan Gujin in front of him, Nangong Huo felt some apprehension, but he recalled that Duan Gujin had already gone through thirteen battles and was probably exhausted. Even though the elder gave him an Elixir Pill, he guessed that Duan Gujin's recovery wouldn't be that fast.

Duan Gujin also recognized the young man before him as someone who had previously acted alongside them. He remembered the young man's name seemed to be Nangong Huo, who had a secret crush on Yu Man.

"Brother Duan, we meet again! Let's have a good match! I believe that as long as Brother Duan gives it his all, you should easily defeat me!"

Nangong Huo said lightly.

"Then come on! I can still hold on!"

Duan Gujin exhaled, and his Primordial Power burst out from his body.

Nangong Huo had anticipated his confrontation with Duan Gujin, but when the moment truly arrived, he couldn't help but feel somewhat flustered.

He very much wanted to defeat Duan Gujin and humiliate him in front of Yu Man.

But now that he was on stage, sensing the terrifying Killing Aura emanating from Duan Gujin, he couldn't help but feel afraid, as if facing an Ancient Fierce Beast ready to devour him.

"Why am I suddenly feeling so frightened?"

Nangong Huo's eyebrows furrowed as he quickly tried to circulate his Primordial Power to expel the fear from his body.

However, after trying for a while, he failed, realizing he was still filled with deep fear.

The elder responsible for the test sensed the powerful aura from Duan Gujin's Martial Soul and was shocked. He knew that Duan Gujin was now executing a Divine Soul Attack.

This kind of Divine Soul Attack could unknowingly penetrate into other martial artists' Divine Souls, inducing fear, weakening their fighting spirit, and rendering their Combat Power ineffective.

The elders overseeing the test were all very impressed by Duan Gujin's mastery of this Divine Soul Attack technique.

In their understanding, a martial artist with a strong body and strong Divine Soul is considered a genius.

Even in the Divine World, although there are many martial artists cultivating both the body and Divine Soul, only a few could reach Duan Gujin's level.

Thus, they greatly admired Duan Gujin.

"Why didn't he use the Divine Soul Attack earlier?"

The elders present pondered this.

If Duan Gujin knew their thoughts, he would have surely scolded them.

Initially, the elder responsible for the test didn't tell Duan Gujin that during the battle he would be given an Elixir Pill to quickly restore his Primordial Power. Because of this, Duan Gujin reserved his strong Spiritual Power as a final trump card.

Now, after taking the Elixir Pill provided by the elder, his body, Primordial Power, and Spiritual Power had quickly recovered.

Obviously, he no longer needed to save his Divine Soul Attack as a trump card. Since he could now wield it, he decided to use it.

With a thought, a Black Lotus silently appeared in Duan Gujin's right palm.

The elders on the stage sensed another strange energy fluctuation on Duan Gujin. They explored him with their Divine Sense for a while but didn't find the source of that strange energy fluctuation on any Treasure he carried.

If Duan Gujin used any Treasure on him, he would be deemed to have lost the bout.

However, the elders around the stage, after searching for a while, couldn't identify the source of the odd energy fluctuation as any Treasure on Duan Gujin. They guessed it was probably Duan Gujin's Martial Skill or a very special Skill he was deploying.

Except for Duan Gujin himself, no one present knew what he was going to do next.

Nangong Huo saw Duan Gujin standing motionless before him and immediately thought that his sudden fear was likely caused by Duan Gujin. He swiftly circulated his Primordial Power, injecting it into the Wooden Sword in his hand.

After a while, the Primordial Power within him burst forth completely.

His eyes locked onto Duan Gujin before he rushed forward to stab him.

However, he quickly noticed that no matter how he tried to stab Duan Gujin, his body easily avoided the Wooden Sword.

"Duan Gujin, stop dodging! Let's fight to the death! You've slept with Yu Man, I want to kill you!"

Nangong Huo was furiously enraged, glaring at Duan Gujin as if his eyes could spew fire.

The people below the stage, upon hearing Nangong Huo's outburst, became excited as if invigorated, extremely thrilled.

Many had heard rumors of Duan Gujin and Yu Man staying in a practice room for a couple of hours alone. They could imagine that a man and a woman might have engaged in some unspeakable acts.

Evidently, the young man on stage was declaring that Duan Gujin slept with Yu Man, turning this into a love-triangle drama of grudges!

"Who would have thought we'd witness such a juicy drama!"

Many martial artists became excited, eager to hear what Nangong Huo and Duan Gujin would say next.
