"Junior brother's combat power is extraordinary, you should restrain yourself a bit, hahaha, please give me your guidance!"
On the arena, a young man looked at Lin Xiuyuan across from him, cupped his hands and smiled.
"Senior brother, you flatter me. Please."
Lin Xiuyuan returned the greeting, nodded, and smiled.
Now that he has advanced to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, his first opponent will naturally also be a disciple in the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
The arrangements for the main peak competition were relatively fair, with participants having very similar combat strength or cultivation levels.
At this moment, Lin Xiuyuan was facing a disciple of Xuanxiao. Although his combat strength might be ordinary, his cultivation level was a notch higher, which was enough to make up for this.
The opponent possessed a cultivation level close to the advanced stage of the late-stage realm, making him far more powerful than Lin Xiuyuan.
However, it is clear that if they are not from the Yunxiao lineage, their combat strength is not particularly strong, and there is not much difference in their cultivation levels. Therefore, for Lin Xiuyuan, the chances of winning this competition are more than 70%.
Without any hesitation, as soon as Lin Xiuyuan said "please," the other party immediately began to use his abilities, waving his hand to unleash a token and a magic sword.
The former was clearly a defensive magical artifact; as it spiraled out, it immediately released a hazy yellow light that enveloped its surroundings. Then, the magical sword, with its flashing blade of light, unleashed beams of sword light that hurtled towards Lin Xiuyuan.
Lin Xiuyuan remained calm and, as always, threw out talismans first.
As the talismans exploded, bursts of spiritual light flashed, and multicolored rays of light erupted.
Instantly, two or three layers of ice blocked the way, followed by flashes of fire and white light.
Several fire dragons and twenty or thirty wind blades condensed, emitting strong spiritual energy fluctuations, and then arrived.
It rushed down and engulfed the sword lights.
In no time, the sword lights shattered.
"Sure enough, fighting a talisman master is just unreasonable. It's like these talismans are free..."
The opponent muttered something, knowing that Lin Xiuyuan was the one in this match and his chances of winning were slim, but it was also a good opportunity for a friendly spar. He had mentally rehearsed the opening situation several times.
This was exactly what he expected.
Therefore, he was not flustered at the moment and fully activated the token artifact, and the hazy yellow light emanating from it became more and more intense.
It not only sprinkled around him, but also began to sprinkle towards the open space in front of him.
Gradually, layers of earthen walls formed, reaching heights of several dozen feet, creating seven earthen walls that stood tall in front, giving people a sense of indestructibility.
This appears to be at least a high-grade magical artifact, possessing extraordinary protective effects.
Those wind blades shattered the sword light first, whistling away and landing on the earthen wall.
Immediately, a series of crisp "bang bang bang" sounds rang out.
Despite the power of the Heavenly Wind Talisman, it only destroyed four earthen walls, leaving only small holes in the fifth earthen wall, from which tiny cracks spread.
Finally, the Fire Dragon Spirits arrived with their combined power, but they only managed to destroy the sixth earthen wall before stopping at the final seventh earthen wall.
A hint of surprise flashed in Lin Xiuyuan's eyes.
Although the magical artifacts in this realm are more powerful, this is the Heavenly Wind Secret Talisman inherited from the Xue family, not to mention the Fire Dragon Spirit Talisman overflowing with purple light, which maximizes its power.
Even though Lin Xiuyuan had only just broken through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, both of these spirit talismans were advanced secret talismans, and their power was only about the level of a high-level cultivator in the late stage.
This shows how powerful this magical artifact is!
At this moment.
Seeing that he had successfully blocked Lin Xiuyuan's initial attack, the opponent felt slightly relieved and took out one item after another.
It was an array base!
There were array bases resembling jade crystals, and conventional Bagua array plates...
Upon seeing this, Lin Xiuyuan's expression hardened, and he naturally wouldn't allow the other party to set up an array.
Although other spirit masters are usually weaker in combat compared to talisman masters, beast tamers, puppeteers, etc., they need to spend a lot of time studying the skills of spirit masters.
Unlike spirit masters such as talisman masters and beast tamers, who mainly focus on combat techniques, their skills are not significantly different from those of disciples who primarily cultivate combat methods.
This is the fundamental reason why, even though the opponent's cultivation level was far superior to Lin Xiuyuan's, he still had a greater chance of winning. The biggest difference lies in the difference in combat strength!
However, a formation master, once they calmly set up a formation, can gain a huge advantage, instantly wiping out the gap and even gaining an absolute upper hand!
Lin Xiuyuan immediately unleashed a series of talismans, which crashed down with a deafening roar.
In an instant, a sea of fire erupted, accompanied by a blue light, and vines and branches extended out, fueling the fire.
The entire arena seemed to be engulfed in a sea of fire, with waves of heat rolling in and sweeping across half the sky.
Strands of wind blades burst forth from within, whistling through the air and striking down towards the earthen wall.
Upon seeing this, the other party's expression changed, and his hand paused. He wanted to reach for the Qiankun bag, but hesitated for a moment.
Facing Lin Xiuyuan in this battle, the chances of winning are slim, so there's no need to waste spirit talismans...
With that in mind, he abandoned the idea of strengthening his defenses with talismans.
After learning who his opponent was, he treated the battle as a friendly sparring match, since his chances of winning were slim and he might as well use it to gain combat experience.
With this in mind, he stopped what he was doing and began to use defensive magic, while continuing to do his best to maintain the protective power of the token and to unleash the offensive power of the spirit sword, in order to block Lin Xiuyuan's attack as much as possible.
Seeing the other party's actions, Lin Xiuyuan guessed their thoughts to some extent. He took his hand off the Qiankun bag, began to form hand seals, and unleashed the Four Extremes Water Dragon King to launch a powerful attack, hoping to end the battle as soon as possible and advance to the second round.
