Chapter 36: Sorry, Brother is a New Era Punishment Knight, Brother Has a Shield!

"The Youth Knight Competition finals begin!"

"Group B champion Yang Wenzhao, versus Group A champion Ye Ling!"

The referee's voice rang out in the venue, filling the entire arena.

Ye Ling and Yang Wenzhao had already been waiting, and at the first opportunity, they quickly stepped onto the stage, walking onto this competition platform.

As they stepped onto the platform, their gazes already wove a thick intent to battle in the air; even the countless spectators who were not involved could clearly perceive the fierce fighting spirit within.

"Ever since that battle ended three months ago, I have waited for this day, waited for a long time."

Looking at Ye Ling's face, Yang Wenzhao said calmly, his expression as silent as an abyss, but the intense fighting spirit on his body betrayed his thoughts, his entire person shimmering with endless light.

The Magic-grade Storage Equipment on his body flashed, and two long swords, each shimmering with its own light, appeared in Yang Wenzhao's hands, resting on the ground; his gaze did not shift in the slightest, remaining fixed firmly on Ye Ling.

Seeing this, Ye Ling naturally smiled and replied: "I have also waited for this day for a long time."

"Or perhaps I can put it this way: for me, all the opponents participating in this competition, even including Han Yu, combined, do not hold higher expectations than you. Yang Wenzhao, I hope you can satisfy me today."

"I return those words to you as well. Three months ago, I was not satisfied at all. Three months later, regardless of win or loss, let it be a hearty and unrestrained battle!" Yang Wenzhao said straightforwardly.

Afterwards, he assumed a stance and just watched Ye Ling before him; the two stood in confrontation, waiting to strike at any moment.

Above, several powerhouses watched this scene and also fell into deep thought where they stood.

"This final battle has finally begun!"

Long Tianyin sighed.

"Both have their own advantages; it just depends on whose performance is more terrifying."

"Wen Zhao's advantage lies in his Spiritual Power being stronger and more profound, nearly double that of Ye Ling's. But Ye Ling, as the Child of Light, has purer Spiritual Power, and his control over skills can be said to be incomparably powerful."

"To determine the winner, it depends on who can better guide all their own abilities during the battle; that is the most critical factor."

Yang Haohan said from the side.

He still remembered that just yesterday, while he was still hesitating about this matter, the promise Ye Ling gave him was that he would definitely win.

Yes!

He intended to fight with all his might, not intending to leave any regrets for himself or for Yang Wenzhao. After the battle ends, regardless of win or loss, he will not change his own state of mind.

This is the best answer for him, and also for Yang Wenzhao.

Yang Haohan was moved to tears; he could have used his own status to pressure the interior of the Alliance, but he still chose a proper battle. This is what a true Child of Light should do.

Although Yang Haohan was still very doubtful.

In the face of true Spiritual Power suppression, no matter how strong his talent is, the final result will still be failure! Unless he has some trump card that Yang Haohan does not know about.

But, it is not just him who has trump cards; Yang Wenzhao has them too.

"Let us wait and see."

"This battle is likely the battle between the two most genius geniuses in the Knight Temple in these past hundred years."

"It is worth recording; since we can witness it with our own eyes, let us not waste this opportunity."

Long Xingyu spoke slowly.

He naturally understood Yang Wenzhao's strength.

But regarding his own disciple, Long Xingyu understood him, yet did not understand him, because he was too mysterious; even a Divine Seal Knight could not thoroughly peer into him.

The only choice was to truly observe.

"Ye Ling, next, I will see if you can perform a miracle."

"Create a miracle of crossing double the Spiritual Power to fight against a higher rank!" The two's momentum did not last too long.

Yang Wenzhao had already moved first, holding his two long swords, holding nothing back, and instantly stabbed toward Ye Ling's position! "Then, let me open this battle that we both enjoy!" Yang Wenzhao shouted, and the next moment, he rushed straight in front of Ye Ling.

A simple sword strike fell.

"Just as I intended!" Ye Ling smiled, his Spiritual Power released, his long sword lifted slightly, casually blocking Yang Wenzhao's strike, and with a flick of his hand, he sent Yang Wenzhao flying away.

Yang Wenzhao quickly moved forward again, meeting him with a "Light Slash Sword".

But Ye Ling was no pushover; he turned suddenly, his intense Spiritual Power erupting at this moment, his Sacred Spiritual Power changed abruptly, a strange light emerged, and it instantly struck Yang Wenzhao's body.

At this moment, Yang Wenzhao only felt his Spiritual Power being dissolved.

Although not much.

Only one or two points, but it was indeed there.

"There is something strange!" He reacted immediately, took a step back, and looked at Ye Ling before him in surprise; his Spiritual Power had actually been dissolved, which was indeed somewhat inconceivable.

"Why not continue?"

Ye Ling laughed.

"You, there is something strange about you." Yang Wenzhao said cautiously.

"What is strange? Continue, I am having a great time fighting!" Ye Ling said in a deep voice, and after speaking, he continued to launch attacks, though he did not use the dissolution of Sacred Spiritual Power again, as Yang Wenzhao was already on guard.

Although he was also somewhat hesitant, Yang Wenzhao did not say much, and in the next moment, he moved instantly, continuing to sweep a sword toward Ye Ling's position.

"Cross Slash!"

"Pure White Blade!"

"No! Holy Light Cross Slash!"

Yang Wenzhao's offensive was very fierce, worthy of the name of a Punishment Knight; in just a moment, he had already released several powerful Punishment Knight skills, sweeping toward Ye Ling's position.

But for such an offensive, Ye Ling had long had a method to resist; instantly, he lifted both swords, circling them up, and began to rotate like wind and sand! "Battle-Kill Rotating Circle Sword!"

The previous Battle-Kill Rotating Circle Sword continued to display powerful strength at this moment, instantly circling, completely swallowing the skills released by Yang Wenzhao, and using the long swords in his hands to hack toward Yang Wenzhao.

The powerful strength of the Battle-Kill Rotating Circle Sword reached its limit at this moment! "Old skills are still the most useful." The air exploded completely; that was the effect brought by Ye Ling's Battle-Kill Rotating Circle Sword, colliding with Yang Wenzhao's countless times.

"No!" Yang Wenzhao jumped up quickly: "Old skills without any changes will only be countered!"

After speaking, he retreated quickly, his Spiritual Power erupted, and the tyrannical light soared into the sky, pressing toward the front, breaking Ye Ling's Battle-Kill Rotating Circle Sword.

"This time, I have won!"

"I am the number one among this generation of young Knights!"

Yang Wenzhao said joyfully, striking toward Ye Ling with his sword. He was certain that under this strike, Ye Ling would immediately lose his ability to fight, and then, in the end, he would be the winner! Therefore, he was very decisive.

However, as this sword strike landed, the result was not as expected; Yang Wenzhao encountered a shield, which left him bewildered.

Following Ye Ling's utterance of "Holy Soaking Shield," he was instantly sent flying backward, retreating several steps before he could steady his body, looking at the Ye Ling before him with a face full of surprise.

Ye Ling was seen holding a quasi-magic shield, the Light-Shining Shield, and in front of the shield was a special wall of light; that was the Fourth-tier Magic, Holy Soaking Shield! "You are right, old skills without any changes will only be eliminated."

"And people are the same."

"Compared to you pure Punishment Knights, I am different!"

"I am a new-era Punishment Knight! I have a shield!"
