With a single slash, wind and thunder surged forth.
Wind and Thunder Blade Technique: Severing the Body.
A hundred-meter-long blade of energy streaked across the sky like a bolt of lightning, unleashing a thunderous storm that instantly covered the entire arena.
An aura of destruction, violence, and death swept across the entire scene at that moment.
It was as if even the air had frozen, making everyone feel suffocated.
"not good!"
Lu Zhantian, who was the first to react, immediately changed his expression and subconsciously shouted, "Lin Xuan, show mercy..."
He sensed the approach of death.
Lin Xuan's strike was so powerful that even he himself might not be able to withstand it, let alone the twenty contestants.
That's why he pleaded for mercy.
However, it was too late.
Or rather, Lin Xuan never intended to give Lu Zhantian any face.
Clang clang...
A flash of light, a thunderclap, and the storm subsided.
The sword energy, as sharp as a bolt of lightning, easily crushed the attacks of the twenty contestants and then sliced through their bodies.
This moment.
The world stopped.
It was as if time itself had stopped flowing.
The world was utterly silent.
The twenty contestants remained motionless, each holding their pose from the moment they made their move.
The entire training ground was filled with a repressive and eerie atmosphere.
So, a dozen seconds later.
Snap... Bang...
Suddenly, a bloodstain appeared on the body of one of the service officers. The bright red blood spread rapidly, extending from his left shoulder all the way to his waist.
Then, with a bang, his body split in two.
The upper half crashed directly onto the ground.
The wound was neat and smooth, like jade.
In a short time.
Once there's a first one, there's immediately a second, a third...
This created a chain reaction.
Twenty contestants.
They were all dismembered, cut in two with a single stroke.
Their eyes were wide open, and they couldn't believe until their deaths how Lin Xuan's knife had sliced through their bodies.
Lin Xuan, why are you so powerful?
The world was utterly silent.
hiss……
Suddenly, someone gasped sharply.
The training ground was instantly turned upside down.
Everyone felt a chill run from the soles of their feet straight to their heads, and they instinctively shivered.
"My God, they're all dead... dead..."
"Terrifying, absolutely terrifying! He killed twenty contestants with a single strike, all of whom were at least experts at the Palace Creation Realm!"
"The Void Refinement Realm... Lin Xuan is definitely at the Void Refinement Realm."
"It turns out he wasn't bragging before. Saying he would kill everyone with three strikes was just him being modest. In fact, one strike would have been enough."
...
After the silence comes the uproar.
On the training ground, everyone's gaze towards Lin Xuan completely changed.
Shock, fear, worship, and disbelief.
"Marine General, should this competition continue?"
On the arena, Lin Xuan had already sheathed his sword, glanced at the twenty-one corpses on the ground, and then looked at Lu Zhantian, saying, "If anyone is still not convinced, feel free to come up here."
I'll stick to what I said.
Three strikes... If anyone can withstand three of my strikes, I'll immediately admit defeat..."
Lin Xuan's words were ostensibly addressed to Lu Zhantian, but were actually meant for the judges in the distance.
A cold smile played on his lips, and as he finished speaking, his eyes flashed like knives.
Look towards the judges' panel in the distance.
That sharp, murderous aura was made no attempt to conceal.
Immediately, everyone on the judges' panel changed color. Those with weaker skills paled even more, feeling a stinging pain in their eyes and instinctively avoiding Lin Xuan's gaze.
It was terrifying, as intense as the blazing sun.
It is breathtaking.
"Lin Xuan, you have such a strong desire to kill. It was just a competition, yet you killed twenty-one of your colleagues."
His intentions are despicable, and his crimes deserve to be punished...
At that very moment.
On the judges' panel, someone stood up and angrily rebuked them.
The sound was like a resounding bell, shaking the very air.
A terrifying pressure swept towards Lin Xuan, like a mountain or a tsunami, as if it wanted to suppress him.
This is a man, who looks to be in his forties or fifties.
He is very strong.
No less powerful than Lu Zhantian and Yun Jiuge, he is clearly a Void Realm expert.
His face was grim as he pointed at Lin Xuan and angrily rebuked him.
He really did have a sense of uprightness and righteousness.
It fooled a lot of people.
"It is Situ Qingfeng, the first deputy hall master of the Law Enforcement Hall. Although he has not obtained the title of War General, his strength is said to be no less than that of a War General, and he has already stepped into the Void Realm."
Someone recognized the man.
He exclaimed in surprise, "His stepping forward now shows he's very dissatisfied with Lin Xuan!"
"This is not normal, hehe... I heard that General Lu proposed that Lin Xuan succeed as the commander of the First Army. Among the people who opposed it the most was Situ Qingfeng."
"Given Lin Xuan's relationship with the Law Enforcement Hall, it's perfectly normal for Situ Qingfeng to object."
"However, Situ Qingfeng is not wrong. Lin Xuan is too bloodthirsty. It was just a competition, yet he killed all the contestants."
These are all powerful figures of our Great Xia Dynasty. Their deaths are a great loss to us.
“That’s right… Lin Xuan is too bloodthirsty. It would be a bad thing to let him take command of the First Army.”
...
After someone took the lead, many people started discussing it again.
Shift in public opinion.
They began targeting Lin Xuan.
