Chapter 1291: VICTORY! 15 BILLION COSMIC COINS IN DIVIDENDS!

Could this Blood Kill be Xu Jingming?

This was the instinctive reaction of the Noah Holy Land's people after the Lei Yuan Shi Ri Phase appeared.

But the next instant, they immediately abandoned this thought.

How could this be possible?

During the Holy Land Exchange Competition, Xu Jingming was only at Starlight Seventh Rank, and his lightning was still in the domain state.

Even if Xu Jingming were even more prodigious, he could not possibly have mastered the Law within a year.

Moreover, the color of the lightning doesn't match—Xu Jingming's lightning is black, while this Blood Kill's lightning is gold.

Ye Lan was aware that Xu Jingming's rank had already broken through to Starlight Ninth Rank.

But she still didn't link the two together.

After all, the difference between a Lightning Domain and a Lightning Law is truly immense.

Xu Jingming on the arena didn't know their thoughts.

He flickered once, and his entire body surged toward Yue Ying.

"The Life Domain excels in restoration and healing."

With the Silver Moon Bloodline's enhancement, plus the Phase's augmentation,

Yue Ying can continuously regenerate during prolonged combat.

Although I possess the formidable physique of the Purple Nightmare Demon Body,

my recovery ability truly may not match hers.

So, the best solution is a single, fatal strike!

But ranged attacks lack sufficient power—then I must close in!"

Sssshhh—!!

Golden lightning carved a blinding trail through the void; Xu Jingming's figure suddenly blurred.

Yue Ying's gray eyes narrowed; her slender fingers had just lifted when she realized Xu Jingming's form had already appeared before her.

T6-tier Technique, Instant Thunder Flash!

"So fast?"

Yue Ying's expression changed slightly—even with her Silver Moon Bloodline activated, she couldn't track Xu Jingming's movements.

At this moment, the Life Ancient Tree Phase had automatically formed a verdant barrier around her!

Moon's Protection!

T7-tier Defensive Technique!

Yet the next instant, Xu Jingming's right hand moved!

A spear suddenly materialized in his right hand.

Immediately, the Lightning Law and the Destruction Domain intertwined.

Forming intricate golden lightning patterns upon it, brilliant golden lightning engulfed the spear!

"This is...?"

Yue Ying's pupils contracted; she sensed a lethal energy fluctuation!

"Proud Princess, this ends now."

Xu Jingming's lips curled slightly as he thrust the spear forward!

T6-tier Technique, Heavenly Punishment Annihilation Thrust!

Sssshhh—!!

The spear's tip tore through space, aiming straight for Yue Ying's throat!

The Moon's Protection didn't even hold for a few milliseconds before being brutally ripped apart!

"Wind's Rhythm!"

Yue Ying's silver hair whipped wildly; her slender form dissolved into wind at the last possible moment.

"Evasion technique? Useless!"

Xu Jingming's powerful spiritual force swept out, instantly locking onto Yue Ying's position.

The golden lightning spear turned instantly, its tip unleashing a furious burst of golden lightning as it stabbed violently into empty space!

"Puff—!!"

A cloud of silver blood mist exploded midair; Yue Ying staggered into view.

Her battle robe on the left shoulder was shredded; a bowl-sized puncture wound marred her translucent skin.

"Die!"

Xu Jingming showed no mercy; the spear wrapped in golden lightning stabbed again!

Without Moon's Protection to defend, there was a soft *puchī*—and in Yue Ying's disbelieving gaze, the spear effortlessly pierced through her skull!

"Sweet!"

Xu Jingming exhaled deeply.

For some reason, defeating such a proud woman gave him an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

"This match is over! Winner: Blood Kill!"

A majestic voice rang from the sky; on Xu Jingming's Master Rank badge, the three vacant match certifications

now had a checkmark in the first vacancy, signifying he had won his first promotion match.

Just one more win, and he wouldn't need to fight the third match—he would advance directly to King Rank.

"Lost? Lady Yue Ying actually lost!"

"This Blood Kill is incredibly strong! He must already have King-level power!"

"That Yue Ying was just unlucky, running into such a killing beast."

"......"

A wave of stunned gasps rose from the audience seats.

The elves were astonished that their princess had been defeated!

More people were shocked by Xu Jingming's strength.

Indeed, this strength was already sufficient to enter the King Tier.

Even Yue Ying herself was the same.

Had she not been unlucky enough to face Xue Sha, she wouldn't have lost under normal circumstances.

Yet what they did not know was that this was not Xu Jingming's full strength.

"The Zi Yan Demon Body—probably won't be used until the Universe Talent War begins."

Xu Jingming silently thought to himself.

But this was fine too.

Over the past year, the Noa royal family had been searching for the cause of Di'er's death.

It would be best to delay exposing his Zi Yan Demon Body as long as possible.

Once he reached the Talent War and secured a high enough ranking,

even if he revealed the Zi Yan Demon Body, the Noa Empire would likely have no way to deal with him.

Swish—

His vision blurred, and Xu Jingming was teleported out of the arena and into the familiar VIP lounge.

The dedicated event manager, Charlie, had already been waiting there; compared to before, his expression was even more respectful:

"Congratulations, my lord Xue Sha, on your victory. This match's viewership has been locked at 120.74 billion."

Including general admission and VIP tickets, total ticket revenue reached 748.44 billion cosmic credits.

At a 2% share, you're entitled to 14.968 billion cosmic credits—rounded to the nearest whole number, that's 15 billion cosmic credits."

"The funds will be transferred to your account shortly."

"15 billion?"

Though he had anticipated it, hearing the actual number still filled Xu Jingming with surprise.

After all, even a Star Peak powerhouse like Eva's true form needed vast amounts of time to earn that much.

Yet he had merely fought one match.

"This is the difference between a genius and an ordinary powerhouse—earning money is too easy."

Xu Jingming couldn't help but silently marvel.

Rarity commands value.

Among the entire human race in the universe, Star-class beings who master the Laws are everywhere.

But Star Radiance-class beings who master the Laws are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

"Judging by your performance in this match, my lord Xue Sha, promotion to the King Tier should be no problem."

"However, viewership for your second promotion match likely won't be nearly as high as this one."

Charlie said.

"It's fine—less is less."

Xu Jingming had expected this.

This was his debut; naturally, fewer people would be eager for his second appearance.

Seeing Xu Jingming wasn't bothered, Charlie sighed in relief, then continued:

"The Abyss Arena is a formidable force across the entire human universe."

We urgently need top-tier prodigies like my lord Xue Sha to join us. Are you interested?"

"I guarantee, the benefits will not disappoint you."

"Not at the moment," Xu Jingming shook his head.

True, the Abyss Arena was indeed a colossal power.

At least far stronger than many high-level civilization cosmic states.

But it still fell short of the Eternal Star Alliance, the pinnacle of human power.

With the Eternal Star Alliance's Talent War about to begin, why seek far when the near is better?

"So my lord Xue Sha is waiting for the Talent War," Charlie sighed, as if he'd expected this all along.

Indeed, compared to the Eternal Star Alliance, the Abyss Arena still paled.

But he quickly regained his composure and smiled again:

"Then I wish my lord Xue Sha great success in the Talent War."

"Yet the doors of the Abyss Arena will always remain open for you."

"Should you encounter any difficulties in daily life, feel free to ask us for help."

"As long as it doesn't involve a Dominator-level force, we can resolve it easily."

"As for your second opponent, we'll also hurry to find one."

After offering his congratulations, he bowed respectfully and withdrew.

After offering his congratulations, he respectfully took his leave.
