Chapter 291: Instant-Kill Two Nations' Prodigies!

Amir's head bounced a few times on the ground.

It finally rolled to Rajat's feet.

A breeze swept past.

The entire basin fell into a deathly silence.

"A-A-Amir... my lord?"

Rajat stared at the head at his feet in disbelief.

Dead?

Just like that?

Just that cleanly... dead?

Without even an intact corpse?

That's impossible...

Lord Amir was the strongest eighteen-year-old prodigy in the entire world!

The strongest prodigy Tianzhu Nation had seen in a hundred years!

The prodigy personally acknowledged by the mentor as one who might, in the future, lead Tianzhu Nation to become the second strongest nation on Blue Star!

How could he have died just like that?

"Lord Amir!!!"

Rajat dropped to his knees with a thud.

That anguished cry instantly jolted awake every student of Tianzhu Nation.

The students of Tianzhu Nation broke down.

In their hearts, Lord Amir was invincible under heaven, more than capable of sweeping the entire Myriad Nations Battlefield.

He had died far too quickly, far too cleanly.

What kind of skill was that exactly?

High-tier?

Could it be that what that Ying Nation man said was true — that it really was high-tier?

On the other side.

Kanna no Tsuki Kei's expression also froze.

He turned his head to glance at the cliff behind him that had been razed flat, cold sweat seeping from his forehead.

He had expected Lin Mo to be strong.

But he hadn't expected him to be strong to this extent!

There are gaps between high-tier skills and high-tier skills.

A high-tier skill capable of such destructive power would have to be mastered to full proficiency at the very least.

In other words, Lin Mo hadn't merely comprehended a high-tier skill — he had mastered it to such a degree...

Kanna no Tsuki Kei understood this very clearly.

If that spear's target had been himself, or anyone else present, the result would have been no different from this Tianzhu Nation representative — a corpse without an intact body...

"What kind of monster is this exactly?"

Yagyu Ken'ichi gripped his long blade, his hand trembling ceaselessly.

Just then.

Kanna no Tsuki Kei snapped back to his senses.

He suddenly shouted loudly at everyone present:

"Everyone calm down!"

"What's the panic?"

"Are you planning to wait for death here?"

Kanna no Tsuki Kei pointed his blade straight at Lin Mo on the cliff.

"So that was indeed a high-tier skill — so what?"

"High-tier skills all have long cooldowns; there's no way he can unleash a second one in a short time!"

His words had just fallen.

Tiancao Zongyilang also stepped forward and said loudly:

"The class representative is right!"

"High-tier skills aren't that easy to comprehend!"

"Lin Mo definitely only knows this one move; he's currently in the skill's downtime."

"This is our only chance — kill him!"

Hearing Kanna no Tsuki Kei and Tiancao Zongyilang's words.

Everyone came back to their senses.

"Baka!"

"We almost got bluffed by him!"

"Everyone charge! Hack him to pieces!"

Yagyu Ken'ichi let out a furious roar, a flash of frenzied killing intent passing through his eyes.

Rajat, still kneeling on the ground, suddenly raised his head.

His eyes were bloodshot, filled with red veins.

Amir was dead.

Now, he was the supreme leader of this Tianzhu Kingdom squad!

"All members of Burning Heaven Squad, hear my order—cooperate with the Ying Nation people and tear that damned Dragon Nation man into ten thousand pieces!"

Rajat stared fixedly at Lin Mo on the cliff's edge and let out a hysterical roar.

With his single command.

The remaining Tianzhu Kingdom prodigies one after another drew the weapons in their hands.

On the Ying Nation's Ghost God Squad side, the killing intent was just as fierce.

Thirty-nine top prodigies.

At this moment, reached an unprecedented consensus.

And that was.

Kill that Dragon Nation man in front of them!

However.

Just as they were about to take their first step.

Rajat was shocked to discover that his feet, as if firmly fixed to the ground, hadn't moved an inch…

He instinctively lowered his head to look.

"What the hell?"

Rajat was stunned.

He saw that the rocky ground beneath his feet, at some unknown moment, had actually wrapped tightly around both his feet.

Not just him.

Kannazuki Kyo, Yagyu Ken'ichi, Tiancao Zongyilang.

Every prodigy present, all at the very same instant, was firmly bound to the spot by the earth.

"What's going on?"

Yagyu Ken'ichi violently drove the strength of his entire body, wanting to break free.

But discovered.

Not a single inch of movement!

Kannazuki Kyo was also exerting himself like mad.

Yet everything was in vain.

This rock seemed to fuse them together with the entire basin as one.

……

On the cliff's edge.

The cold wind blew through Lin Mo's tousled hair.

He sat on Big White's back, looking down from above at that group of prodigies from various nations below.

Watching them struggle desperately.

Listening to that group of Ying Nation people's rallying speech.

Lin Mo was amused.

Hilarious, brothers.

Skill cooldown period?

I have so many skills, even I don't know which one to use.

So naive…

Lin Mo said in his heart:

"Hearing Xiao Tu, it's your turn to perform now."

The words had just fallen.

In the skill bar.

【【Earth Shield Art】 has been activated.】

【"Master! Watch closely! Hearing Xiao Tu absolutely will not let you down!"】

The next moment.

Rumble rumble—!!

The earth of the entire basin began to shake violently.

The ground tore apart madly, splitting open bottomless chasms one after another.

Rubble flew in all directions.

Dust blotted out the sky.

"What's going on?!"

"An earthquake?!"

The people bound to the spot below looked around in terror.

Immediately after.

Within their gaze.

The ground on both sides of the basin exploded with a roar!

Boom boom!

Two enormous rock giant hands, so vast they blotted out the sky, rose up violently from deep within the earth.

Each one, as massive as a mountain.

Shadow, shrouded the heads of the thirty-nine prodigies.

Kannazuki Kyou suddenly raised his head.

Looking at the two giant stone hands that were closing in on them.

His mind went blank.

He was no fool.

"High-tier…"

"This is a high-tier skill too!"

"How is this possible…"

At this moment, Kannazuki Kyou felt a fear he had never known before.

"Why?!"

"Why!!!"

"Why does he know two high-tier skills?!"

"How can anyone at this level, at this age, comprehend two high-tier skills of completely different attributes at the same time?"

"This isn't right, is it?!"

Beside him, Tiancao Zongyilang's eyes were hollow.

Despair.

Endless despair.

"It's over…"

Tiancao Zongyilang laughed bitterly.

"I said it long ago…"

"I said it long ago that this trip felt wrong…"

"We never should have come, never should have provoked Dragon Nation…"

"Lin Mo…"

"He's simply the Demon King…"

Rajat stared at the sky-obscuring giant stone hands.

His mental defenses completely collapsed.

"N-no… don't!"

"I'm sorry!"

"Lord Lin Mo! Dragon Nation grandpa!"

"I was wrong! I surrender! Please, please spare me!"

"I'll give you my specialized weapon! Please let this one keep his life…"

It wasn't only Rajat.

The others from Tianzhu Nation also began crying out in desperate pleas for mercy.

"Help!"

"I don't want to die here!"

"Mama!"

Facing the wails from below.

Lin Mo on the cliff showed not a shred of sympathy.

This was the real battlefield — either you die or I live.

"Die."

Lin Mo uttered two words flatly.

Rumble rumble rumble—!!!

Two mountain-like giant stone hands slammed shut violently toward the central area.

Thirty-nine prodigies, representing the peak combat power of eighteen-year-olds from Ying Nation and Tianzhu Nation, at the instant the giant stone hands closed.

Were smashed into meat paste.

Fresh blood dyed the earth red.

Clean and decisive.

Not giving the enemy any chance to counterattack.

A mage ought to be just so.
