Chapter 86

Just when everyone thought Lin Mo was going to say something harsh, they heard him say:

"Who's first?"

Everyone: "..."

Long A behind him almost couldn't sit still, slid off the bench, and finally gave Lin Mo a thumbs up:

"Lin Ge, it still has to be you!"

Heh.

For Lin Mo, if he could choose one-on-one, why choose a more difficult way?

You must know that the reason why the freshmen decided the winner so quickly was that most of the freshmen would concentrate their cultivation time on improving their cultivation for the Immortal Examination, resulting in a limited type of spells practiced.

Excluding bug-level existences like Chu Wange, even the top twenty geniuses of the Immortal List, being able to practice two or three mid-rank spells to the Great Accomplishment or Peak Realm could already be considered outstanding.

Precisely because of this, most of the freshmen mastered attack-type spells and lacked defense-type spells.

So when they fought, the probability of overturning was extremely high.

Take the battle where Ji Feng fought three challengers just now; if it weren't for his casting speed being a bit faster, plus those few were spell-flow, the final outcome would really be hard to say.

Therefore, everything is based on the word "stable".

The three challengers opposite, including Ye Chen, were all shaken by him.

However, Ye Chen reacted very quickly and immediately said: "Hmph, I..."

"Then you, Brother Tang Lei!"

Lin Mo interrupted Ye Chen's words again and said to Tang Lei beside him.

Ye Chen gritted his teeth: "Lin Mo, you..."

"You what you? Now it's my home field."

Lin Mo interrupted impatiently again: "If you aren't satisfied, you can choose to challenge others!"

For Ye Chen, he didn't indulge him at all.

Did he really think he was the "protagonist" and the whole world had to revolve around him?

He had long been unaccustomed to Ye Chen's attitude.

Ye Chen's face changed, but in the end, he restrained himself, only his expression became a few points gloomier.

Tang Lei looked at Lin Mo, then at Ye Chen, not knowing whether he should take the stage.

Lin Mo took the initiative to say to him: "Please, Brother Tang Lei?"

Tang Lei was relieved, nodded, and jumped toward the arena.

Just as Lin Mo was about to go down the stage, Chu Wange, who hadn't spoken before, suddenly turned her head and said to him:

"Lin Mo, come on."

Everyone cast their gazes again, but they were not surprised.

During this period, Chu Wange had been "hanging out" with Lin Mo every day.

The reason for using "hanging out" to describe it was because Chu Wange had never left the Enlightenment Platform when she was having an epiphany before.

But since she withdrew from the deep epiphany, she rarely went to the Enlightenment Platform to meditate, and even during the daily Enlightenment rosy clouds time, she was rarely seen.

And she didn't disappear; instead, she followed Lin Mo and Long A to the martial arts practice stage to practice stance training whenever she had nothing to do, or went to the cafeteria on time to grab the first pot of sweet and sour pork ribs.

From the perspective of outsiders, the time Chu Wange and Lin Mo spent together during this period almost confirmed the so-called "rumor".

A smile appeared on Lin Mo's face, and he nodded: "I will."

After speaking, he performed his movement technique and landed lightly on the arena.

Tang Lei, who was already standing on the arena, made a Dao salute and said: "Lin Ge, please enlighten me!"

"Please enlighten me!"

Lin Mo also returned the salute politely.

At this time, the voice of the host, Brother Li, rang out out of thin air:

"Contestants, please prepare. You can start fighting after the countdown ends!"

"10, 9, 8, 7..."

At the moment the countdown ended, Lin Mo and Tang Lei pinched the Dao formula at the same time.

"Heavenly thunder is deep, earthly thunder is dim. Six Jia and Six Ding, hear my name..."

"Order of wind and fire, wind and rain in all directions, let me gallop..."

Whether it was the people on the stand or the audience outside the Mirror Flower Water Moon, everyone focused their attention.

If the battle between Ji Feng and the three challengers was a duel with a disparity in strength.

Then Lin Mo and Tang Lei was a duel that looked evenly matched on the surface.

Because the cultivation of both sides of the duel was Qi Refinement Level 8, there was no big gap in true essence.

Plus Tang Lei could actually be ranked in the first echelon of immortal seedlings among the 50 qualifiers; otherwise, he wouldn't have chosen a genius on the ninth level of the Enlightenment Platform as an opponent.

Even if this person was Lin Mo.

For the duel in the late stage of Qi Refinement, most of the audience outside the Mirror Flower Water Moon actually couldn't understand it.

However, the Immortal List geniuses on the stand and the team leaders in the bamboo building courtyard naturally could understand.

Long A touched his chin and analyzed while watching:

"This richness of true essence seems to be at the level of mid-rank spells."

Zhang Cai, sitting next to him, also smiled and chimed in: "Since they are all mid-rank spells, it depends on who casts faster. In my opinion..."

"Lin Mo is faster."

He hadn't finished speaking when he heard Chu Wange in front interrupt.

Although the latter's tone was determined, the relationship between the two made them unable to distinguish for a moment whether it was an objective analysis or blind support.

Just as everyone was stunned, I saw Lin Mo in the field indeed pinch the Dao formula one step ahead:

"One sense, one response, mixed as one, Heavenly Thunder Incantation—Go!"

With a "crack!" explosion, a thunderbolt popped out from his hand quickly and galloped toward Tang Lei opposite.

Tang Lei's pupils shrank violently. Even though he was prepared and dodged quickly to the side, the thunderbolt still accurately hit one of his arms.

"Pfft!"

The Dao formula he had pinched more than halfway was directly interrupted, and the gathered true essence also dissipated for the most part.

"Hiss~!"

The pain from his arm made Tang Lei gasp, but he didn't intend to give up.

Just as he was supporting his willpower and wanted to try to finish the remaining Dao formula with one hand, he suddenly saw Lin Mo opposite him show a smile, and then took out a standard Dao sword from behind.

"!!!"

Tang Lei secretly said it was bad and retreated backward, but Lin Mo's speed was faster.

"Kui Star Step!"

I saw him rush quickly, arrive in front, and then raise his Dao sword for a set of basic sword arts.

Ten seconds later...

"Swish!"

Tang Lei, who had lost an arm, was poked into a beam of white light by Lin Mo with the Dao sword in a few strokes and dissipated on the arena.

【Winner: Lin Mo.】

As the arena prompt came, everyone on the stand reacted.

"Lin Ge is capable; this casting speed is something."

Long A said with slight surprise.

Regarding Lin Mo's movement, he had seen it long ago, so naturally, he wouldn't be too surprised, but this was the first time he saw Lin Mo cast a spell.

From casting to hitting, there was no dragging of feet in the process.

The gesture of pinching the formula was like having cast it thousands of times, extremely skilled and smooth, and the timing and accuracy of the release could also be said to be impeccable.

It just happened to hit Tang Lei's arm that was casting, directly disrupting the other party's rhythm.

As for the subsequent close-range output, there was nothing to say.

At this time, Feng Ji, who possessed a mutated Lightning Spiritual Root, also added:

"This thunder method is at the Perfect Completion Realm!"

As soon as this was said, everyone finally realized.

Long A nodded, a smile appearing on his honest face:

"If you put it that way, then it makes sense."

This sentence had a double meaning.

It referred to Lin Mo winning this battle and also alluded to some rumors about him before.

Not to mention anything else, just this mid-rank spell at the Perfect Completion Realm, Lin Mo had the opportunity to brush a full score in the Immortal Examination Mystical Realm.
