Chapter 162: Total Annihilation of the Army?

Watching Zhang BaiChuan step by step walk into the trap he himself had set, Zhuxia Yilang revealed a cruel smile.

It seemed as if Zhang BaiChuan was an ant that could be pinched to death at any moment.

Suddenly, Zhang BaiChuan stopped his steps.

Just now he inexplicably felt a hint of palpitation.

"What's going on, is it a problem with the simulation pod?"

Zhang BaiChuan frowned, didn't pay much attention, and continued walking forward.

The next moment, thinking Zhang BaiChuan had sensed something wrong, Zhuxia Yilang no longer hid and launched an attack directly.

Swish!

Two hand-held swords flew out instantly, respectively heading for Zhang BaiChuan's head and chest.

"Who?!"

Zhang BaiChuan's pupils contracted slightly, and he reacted extremely quickly, drawing his long sword and placing it across his chest.

Clang! Clang!

Two crisp sounds, the hand-held swords were blocked by the long sword.

However, Zhuxia Yilang's figure had already reached behind Zhang BaiChuan.

Pfft—

A dagger suddenly pierced Zhang BaiChuan's back heart, the blood-stained tip protruding from his chest, causing his torso to instinctively lean forward.

Suddenly ambushed, Zhang BaiChuan's cheeks twitched, and he lowered his head to look at the blood-stained tip before his chest.

Boom—

A surge of sword intent erupted with Zhang BaiChuan as the center, scattering grass scraps and dirt around, and Zhuxia Yilang was knocked backward by the impact of this sword intent.

"Damn, are you playing dirty?"

Zhang BaiChuan held the sword with one hand and covered the wound on his chest with the other.

Fresh blood welled out from between his fingers, his eyes showed a hint of disbelief, but more so anger.

His reaction was already quick, but he still overlooked Zhuxia Yilang's talent for invisibility.

The next second, a figure gradually appeared.

Zhuxia Yilang's face was hidden beneath a ghostly mask, and he said in a low voice: "Sneak attack? In battles between martial artists, there is only life and death."

Out of caution, after succeeding Zhuxia Yilang did not immediately attack, but kept circling Zhang BaiChuan, observing his condition.

Having been pierced through the chest by his own dagger, Zhang BaiChuan had already lost the qualification to continue the test.

But he liked to watch his prey die with his own eyes.

"Damn, truly shameless."

Zhang BaiChuan spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva.

He gathered all of his sword intent onto the long sword in his hand, the sword blazing with dazzling brilliance, like a glow stick.

"Sword intent...?"

Feeling the surging sword intent on Zhang BaiChuan's body, Zhuxia Yilang secretly thought it was bad, then turned and ran.

"Damn... you stabbed me and want to run? I'll fight you to the end!"

Zhang BaiChuan, disregarding the wound on his chest, pursued with his long sword in hand, his ragged breathing sounding like an old bellows.

A sword shadow about three zhang high appeared above his head; Zhang BaiChuan took a deep breath, his hand like a large bow drawn back, and he slashed forth this sword intent.

Clang—

The sword intent slashed out, and in just an instant it had already flown a distance of a hundred meters.

Zhuxia Yilang hurriedly entered the invisibility state, then continuously formed seals with both hands, his speed surging again.

With a whoosh, the sword intent brushed past Zhuxia Yilang's body, lifting his hair and black robe.

Boom—

The sword intent exploded.

Zhuxia Yilang tumbled and flew out, being blown away by the explosion for several tens of meters.

He stabilized his posture by kneeling on one knee, and before he could catch his breath, another sword intent came at him.

Clang!

The sword intent appeared at the spot where Zhuxia Yilang had been 0.1 seconds earlier, dirt fragments flying, and the scattered shockwave made the just-dodged Zhuxia Yilang feel his blood qi surge inside.

His specialty is concealment and sneak attacks; he is not skilled in frontal combat.

Being bombarded by Zhang BaiChuan's desperate sword intent barrage, Zhuxia Yilang felt stifled and scrambled about in all directions.

However, soon the invisibility was activated, and Zhuxia Yilang's figure vanished instantly.

Zhang BaiChuan lost his target, his brows furrowed together, his eyes scanning all around, guarding against Zhuxia Yilang's sudden attack.

However, after turning invisible, Zhuxia Yilang directly chose to retreat, not wasting any more time on Zhang BaiChuan.

At this moment, his ghostly mask was half blown away, and he had multiple minor wounds on his body, looking quite disheveled.

"Baka!"

Zhuxia Yilang cursed silently, feeling furious and frustrated inside.

I never expected to be wounded by my own prey.

But it's fine, my mission has already been completed.

Zhang BaiChuan in that state could never possibly reach the endpoint.

At this moment, the viewers in the Huaguo livestream room were all shocked by Zhang BaiChuan's sword intent attack just now.

Initially they thought Zhuxia Yilang would succeed with a direct sneak attack, but they didn't expect Zhang BaiChuan to nearly counterattack, sending Zhuxia Yilang fleeing in disgrace.

"So satisfying, Zhang BaiChuan is indeed formidable!"

To grasp Sword Intent of Minor Accomplishment at such a young age—this talent is terrifying!

Sword Intent of Minor Accomplishment? You probably don't know—Lu Jing's Fist Intent has already reached the Perfection Realm...

Enough already, Perfection Realm Fist Intent—I almost believed it.

Zhang BaiChuan's counterattack was satisfying, and Huaguo's spectators sprang into action.

But as time passed, Zhang BaiChuan's injuries worsened, and he was eventually sent out of the simulation space.

Thus, among Huaguo's top 100 rankings, only Lu Jing remained in the top five.

Half an hour later.

From the central region of the Primordial Island, dozens of yellow light curtains suddenly rose from the ground.

Swish—

Swish—

These light curtains enclosed the central region of the Primordial Island.

Those outside watched the suddenly rising light curtains, unable to proceed any further.

What's going on?

Many examinees voiced their doubts.

The familiar mechanical voice sounded: "Time's up, the slaughter phase begins; examinees who have not entered the central region are eliminated."

The final phase has begun—examinees will now slaughter each other!

How come there are only a dozen or so people in the central region, most of them foreign examinees???

Holy crap, really? Ten foreign examinees, five Huaguo examinees!

As the final phase began, the broadcast switched to the central region.

Ni Chang Sha Na, who had long reached the endpoint, watched the rising light curtains, a flicker of joy crossing her eyes.

With the beetle's help, she now had a god's-eye view, the positions of all examinees who entered the central region under her control.

Five Huaguo examinees... only Lu Jing poses a threat.

Her expression shifted; she commanded the beetle to gather all her allies together.

You've done well.

Ni Chang Sha Na looked at the crowd and praised: "Go kill that Lu Jing; I'll clear out the others."

Yes!

Takeshiro Ichiro nodded, his silhouette vanishing again as he and the others rushed toward Lu Jing.

We're done—this time the whole army will be wiped out!

Lu Jing's in a bad way, surrounded by nine people...

I've given up hope; even if Lu Jing gets stronger, it won't change anything.

A sense of despair enveloped all Huaguo viewers watching the broadcast.

Some could no longer bear to watch and chose to close the stream.
