1582 You Secretly Learned My Battle Technique!?
The Crown Prince had fifteen wins!
The audience cheered for a long time, and were filled with excitement.
Wang Teng was impressed by the prince’s performance, but not too much.
This is his true strength!
Wang Teng looked at the noble and smiled. The latter was worth his full attention and ability!
It was a worthy opponent, someone to look forward to fighting, unlike the ordinary kind.
“What a monster!” the Second Prince muttered.
He then glanced at the young hero and asked, “Feeling any pressure now that the Crown Prince displayed his strength?”
Wang Teng replied with a smile, “I fought sixteen on my own and he only fought fifteen; he’s clearly inferior to me. He should be the one under pressure.”
Ji Haochen was listening in and was caught off guard by this bluff. “Damn, you’re so pretentious.”
The Second Prince felt at a loss. “How can you make this comparison? The prince only fought fifteen because you killed one. He would have had the chance to fight sixteen otherwise.”
“I fought sixteen warriors together. Does he dare do the same?” the hero asked.
The Second Prince was speechless. “All right, you’re awesome!”
“Are you always this confident? You don’t seem to be afraid of anyone,” Timothy said.
“How can I be invincible if I’m not confident?” Wang Teng responded calmly.
“Invincible!”
Everyone was flabbergasted, not expecting the earthling to have such a strong mentality.
That was an invincible warrior. He would face many more powerful opponents in the future. Such a strong mentality would be impossible without the mentality to match.
Everyone looked at Wang Teng with conflicting emotions.
None of them thought that the hero was joking; he was calm, and his eyes were serious.
Those words had to come from his heart!
Right at that moment, the Crown Prince walked over and happened to overhear his rival’s claims. He was shocked by it, so he glanced at the hero.
The prince had encountered many talents on par with him, or even stronger. However, none of them had dared to say they aimed to become invincible!
This fellow dares to say something like this!
It stirred him up!
The great noble’s impression of the earthling actually improved. What he couldn’t see in the beginning was gradually revealing its true appearance.
This was a person unlike any other talent he had ever seen before!
He returned to his seat and rated his rival highly!
That was the highest regard he had ever given to anyone!
There were only five people who were better than him!
Wang Teng used his spiritual power to sweep through the skies and collect the attributes dropped by Gaunt.
Poison Domain*600
Constellation Force (Poison)*8800
…
His Poison Domain had already reached the third rank. The 600 bubbles he scooped didn’t help in advancing his rank; however, his enlightenment did rise a little. It was better than nothing.
Since the Crown Prince’s fights were over, the next few days would be used for the remaining matches that would decide the last eight spots.
Days passed one by one. The Second Prince and the others finally entered the final showdown!
The battles were fierce. No one relented, even while suffering injuries.
Fifteen days later, everyone’s rankings were finally established!
From third to tenth place—the Second Prince, Landon, Timothy, Ling Yangxu, Ji Haochen, Leng Qianxue, Su Jianchen and Yue Qiqiao!
Sawyer, Xiahou Zun, Jiang Weisheng, Berkshire, Tu Xiaoba, Gaunt and Situ Wan’er weren’t able to enter the top ten!
There was also Strachey who died!
You could say that all eighteen warriors were there.
Now, only the last match had yet to be fought, the showdown between the first and second place holders!
Wang Teng still kept the top position, but he still had to defeat the Crown Prince. The first place wasn’t truly his yet.
Both the young hero and the prince rested for more than ten days while the last battles were conducted, so their bodies had recovered to their peak condition.
The last day, early in the morning—
Wang Teng and the Crown Prince appeared high in the sky, hovering while keeping a distance from each other. They exchanged glances, while full of fighting spirit.
The audience had been waiting for that match for a long time. Everyone became ecstatic the moment they saw the two enter the arena.
“It’s going to begin!”
“The final showdown is about to start!”
“This is so exciting. My heart is about to jump out of my chest!”
“It’s finally starting!”
“Who will be the last one standing?”
“Who is going to get first place?”
“Everything will be decided on this match!”
…
Above the arena—Wang Teng and the Crown Prince were looking at each other in silence. Strong winds blew from time to time, swirling between them.
The prince said, “In the beginning, right when I returned to the Great Qian Empire, the last thing I expected was to find someone strong enough to face me.
“I came across many talented warriors when I traveled outside the empire!
“There were many experts comparable to me, which made me realize how vast the outside world was.
“This helped me to gradually rein in my pride, so I could reflect and looking at myself.”
…
Wang Teng looked at him with surprise. The prince had barely spoken before that moment. He seemed like a different person now that they were about to fight.
Could it be that he’s actually a chatterbox?
The Second Prince and the others were just as surprised, but soon understood that the prince was treating the hero as a worthy opponent. That was probably the reason why he was speaking as much.
The prince continued, “I understood my shortcomings and set a clear path for myself, in order to defeat countless opponents and be where I am today.”
“So?”
“You said you’re going to become invincible. Have you examined yourself?” The former gazed at the hero.
Wang Teng realized something. The Crown Prince happened to hear what he said before, and probably thought he was out of his depth, which was why he was so chatty. The hero shook his head and laughed. “I will tell you after we fight.”
“You’re different and unique, even among all the talents I’ve met,” said the prince, “However, you haven’t seen the vast expanse outside the empire. You shouldn’t say things like that.”
“Is that so?” Wang Teng glanced at the Crown Prince calmly. “Let’s begin. I’ll be able to see a bigger world after I defeat you.”
“You’re very confident!” The noble’s eyes flashed with a brilliant light. “Then… let’s fight!”
Although his voice wasn’t loud, it resounded in the skies, becoming the signal for the start of the battle.
Boom!
The next moment, both fighters disappeared at the same time, turning into a pair of beams rushing up high into the sky, just like two massive dragons, to collide with a bang right after!
The Crown Prince held a sword, and immediately used his Unity of Man and Sword to rush toward his opponent.
There was no need to test the water in a battle of such caliber. They had to use powerful attacks in order to defeat the other.
Wang Teng felt the powerful incoming sword consciousness, so he condensed Force in his sword as well. He then seemed to also become one with his sword as he slashed to counter the move.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Sword projections clashed in the sky, ultimately shattering…
The sharp attacks swept across the ground, leaving a trail of sword marks and laying waste. Some were thin as blades of grass, while others were as thick as arms. Some were even as deep as true abysses.
Sand clouds began to rise, dimming and blocking the sky!
The prince noticed that Wang Teng’s sword techniques were comparable to his. He immediately pointed at his opponent.
Tyrant’s Finger!
It was a digit filled with a horrifying ultima, which pierced through the air like a giant’s finger. It then descended towards the hero!
Wang Teng’s eyes narrowed, but he didn’t flinch. There was a trace of malice in his eyes as he snickered. He too extended a finger and pointed forward.
Boom!
A second ghastly finger was manifested in the sky, also filled with a terrifying ultima!
The prince’s pupils shrank, as if witnessing something unbelievable.
“F**k! How come their battle techniques look so similar?” The audience logged onto the live chat platform were bewildered.
The Second Prince and the others were feeling the same. They stared at the two massive fingers in the sky, seemingly trying to find out the differences.
Boom!
The fingers clashed and caused a loud explosion.
Both attacks shattered into bits and exploded.
The young hero and the prince flew backwards and appeared roughly a kilometer away.
The noble could not believe it. He felt restless as he looked at his opponent. “You actually learned my technique in secret!”
The hero’s skill resembled his Tyrant’s Finger. It was almost the same, be it appearance, ultima, or the overwhelming presence.
But, how is this possible?
He took great pains to find that legacy. How did he learn it too?
There was only one possibility he could think of. Wang Teng had learned his technique in secret!
However, the idea was equally impossible and hard to believe. He had merely used the move a few times during his previous matches. How could that guy learn it?
Are there really such perverse talents in the world?
Countless questions floated into the Crown Prince’s mind. Waves of emotions were crashing inside his calm heart.
“Guess!” Wang Teng smiled.
He just wanted to tease the prince, since the latter had dared to reprimand him like a teacher, using a righteous tone.
The hero wanted to know how the other would react after realizing he had secretly stolen his battle technique.
From the looks of it, the effects were decent. The Crown Prince’s expression was within his expectations.
As for whether he would expose his secrets, that was irrelevant. The ploy would only prove he was extremely talented.
The noble wasn’t expecting such a reply. He felt frustrated.
“Again!” Wang Teng said to his opponent.
The prince took a deep breath to calm down; his eyes flickered with a dangerous glint.
It didn’t matter if the hero had stolen his technique or not. The provocation was real.
Now he was angry.
Boom!
Their battle continued, becoming even more intense.
Explosions resounded in the sky. The earth quaked and space seemed ready to burst open.
“Let’s see if you’ve learned this sword skill.” The prince’s eyes became intense. His sword sliced through the air like a comet, leaving a trail of shimmering sparks.
The Twelve Tyrant Swords!
First Sword!
The noble had also instilled the move with the Unity of Man and Sword, as well as his domain. The overall power was overwhelming.
Wang Teng smiled when he saw the other getting angry. He glanced at his attributes board.
The Twelve Tyrant Swords (First Sword): 7500/10000 (foundation)
He was 2,500 points away from the well-versed stage, so he decidedly bridged the gap with blank attributes.
The attribute skyrocketed in an instant, jumping to well-versed, all the way to the specialized stage.
30,000 points were needed for this increase!
The Twelve Tyrant Swords (First Sword): 1/50000 (specialized)
In an instant, various enlightenment concepts flowed into his mind. His eyes glistened like the edge of a sharp blade as he wielded his sword.
Unity of Man and Sword!
Metal Domain!
Boom!
The oppressive golden sword projection was shot, crashing into the Crown Prince’s attack.
The latter narrowed his eyelids into thin slits, the faint glowing mist masking a frozen expression.
