Chapter 539: Advance, Big Cat!

Gu Lan was injured, but Big Cat's rebound injuries had to be much worse. Such a frenzied attack was suicidal...

Just as Gu Lan thought this, it saw Big Cat land. Blood sprayed from his mouth for who knew how many-eth time, yet he was already charging again! The incandescent light on his heavy sword was only growing brighter, and the blood-red in his eyes deepened. The blood aura covering the battlefield around them grew even more intense.

Is he crazy? He didn’t even take the time to breathe and steady himself... This is suicidal!

Gu Lan was shocked and hastily activated its bloodline power, using its reflection ability once more.

Boom—

Both were sent flying again. A crack appeared in Gu Lan's armor, and Big Cat spat out blood yet again. The backlash was so strong that his right hand was split open, and blood was flowing freely.

However, the moment Big Cat landed, he bounced up again, shifting the heavy sword into his left hand. With a fierce swing, he charged at his opponent once more.

These clashes were undoubtedly brutal, but precisely for that reason, the spectators were absolutely thrilled. It was ferocious, truly ferocious!

Meanwhile, Tang San's eyes showed a hint of admiration as he softly said to Mei Gongzi, "Big Cat has won!"

Indeed. When Big Cat dodged the critical strike from the Eye of the Thunder God, Tang San knew his comrade was going to win.

In this match, Big Cat's victory wasn't due to sheer strength but experience—rich battle experience. He made use of every single little opportunity to turn the tide and achieve victory.

Had it been a battle of pure strength and bloodline abilities, Big Cat could still have won, although it would’ve been a difficult match. He had an advantage in that the Lion-Tiger Golden Force was able to counter the reflection ability to some extent. But Gu Lan also had its armor and a true divine weapon; the poorly equipped Big Cat stood practically no chance in a clash like that.

Therefore, Big Cat chose another path.

When Big Cat sensed the formidable threat of the Eye of the Thunder God, he chose to endure. He used the Lion-Tiger Golden Force more for defense than offense. This was why Gu Lan felt it had been suppressing its opponent yet at the same time couldn't truly deal a critical blow to Big Cat.

The Glazed Glass Nymph Emperor was known for its manifold abilities, hence the title of Thousand-Faceted, and its descendants naturally inherited its combat style. But as Big Cat stood on passive defense, letting himself be pushed back by the opponent, he carefully observed Gu Lan's fighting style.

This guy is a lunatic!

Boom—

Both were once again blasted apart by the rebound.

This time, the glow of Gu Lan's armor had completely dimmed. Big Cat's tiger claws had torn open gashes on its chest, exposing the translucent "flesh" beneath.

Meanwhile, Big Cat's already injured right hand was completely fractured due to the reflection ability. And yet he did not stop!

"AARGH!"

As soon as he landed, he didn't even stop to catch his breath before charging again, now with his left paw. The madness in his attack sent a wave of bloodthirsty aura straight to Gu Lan's mind.

The intense killing intent finally touched the most cowardly part of Gu Lan's heart.

"I surrender, I surrender!" Gu Lan shouted.

The referee, a Great Demon King who had been waiting nearby, immediately stepped in. With a wave of his hands, a gentle force wrapped around Big Cat, pulling him aside and neutralizing the attack.

Gu Lan collapsed to the ground, gasping for air. In terms of injuries, he was definitely not doing anywhere near as bad as Big Cat, but that was irrelevant. His spirit was broken.

At the same time, Big Cat’s right hand and forearm were fractured; he had six or seven broken ribs in his chest, severe internal injuries, and his eyes were completely bloodshot. His body was drenched in his own blood, but his ferocious aura had only intensified.

As Tang San had predicted, the God-Killing Domain in the hands of a true warrior like Big Cat was much like the proverbial wings given to a tiger.

This was Big Cat's first time using the God-Killing Domain on the battlefield, and yet he was instantly able to make best use of it. He didn't let the God-Killing Domain explode immediately; instead, he let it simmer within, constantly stimulating himself and making his body stronger under the influence of the killing intent. This allowed him to endure until now, pushing his opponent to the brink with sheer killing intent.

The referee Great Demon King personally supported Big Cat, raising his still-intact left hand high. "Big Cat of the Lion-Tiger clan wins!"

He didn't even bother to look at Gu Lan. A contestant who showed cowardice and didn't fight to the end was not worth his attention.
