Chapter 58 Top 10

Chapter 58: Chapter 58 Top 10The current top five contenders are Su Lin, Su Wu, Ling Yunfei, Lin Qingtian, and Lin Xiaodu. Except for Lin Xiaodu, the other four all possess the cultivation level of the third tier of the Spirit Sea Realm. And their opponents are all at the second tier of the Spirit Sea Realm. Thus, almost as soon as the fight begins, the victor is determined. As for Lin Xiaodu, though she is merely in the late phase of the Spirit Sea Realm second tier, she has a Poison Body, which makes her nearly impossible to contend with for ordinary people. Her opponent conceded without even stepping onto the stage. If they were to be poisoned by Lin Xiaodu, without her providing an antidote, they would likely be crippled. Lin Ye, in sixth place, is at the late phase of the Spirit Sea Realm second tier! His opponent is at the middle phase of the same tier. Leveraging his cultivation superiority, he easily defeats his opponent. "Seventh place versus fourteenth!" Qin Lie announced loudly. The one in seventh is Ling Chen, while the fourteenth is a talent from the Su Family named Su Qingying. After they ascend the stage, the battle officially begins! "Spirit Sea Realm middle second tier!" Ling Chen immediately perceives his opponent’s cultivation level. Su Qingying looks at Ling Chen with some disdain. Due to the incident where Su Lai was disabled by Ling Chen, the Su Family holds a grudge against him, and Su Qingying is no exception. "Falling Flower Palm!" With a soft yell, Su Qingying doesn’t bother with probing and directly uses a lower-grade Profound Spirit Technique, aiming a palm at Ling Chen. Watching the fiery red Spiritual Power palm approach, Ling Chen remains unconcerned, raises his right hand, and black Spiritual Power sweeps out forming a Spiritual Power palm, which blasts towards Su Qingying’s Falling Flower Palm. It’s the lower-grade Spirit Art, Cloud Mist Palm! "Boom!" The two Spiritual Power palms clash violently, creating a thunderous explosion, while shockwaves ripple outwards. "Your Spiritual Power is this strong?" Su Qingying’s beautiful eyes narrow. She sees her Falling Flower Palm easily shattered by the black Spiritual Power palm, which continues to bombard her. Realizing this, Su Qingying could not afford to be careless. "Flying Swallow Flash!" At that moment, her Jade Foot taps the ground, and she executes a lower-grade Body Technique Xuanling Technique, dodging Ling Chen’s Cloud Mist Palm. Then, with a flicker, she appears behind Ling Chen. "Blast Flame Finger!" She shouts softly, casting another lower-grade Profound Spirit Technique. Different from the Falling Flower Palm, the Blast Flame Finger is executed with more ease, complementing her movement technique. A fiery red finger thrusts directly at the back of Ling Chen’s head! The cultivators in the audience tense up instantly. Even though Ling Chen has cultivated to the second tier of the Spirit Sea Realm, the short duration of his cultivation may not be enough to master a Body Technique Xuanling Technique. After all, the difficulty of cultivating a lower-grade Body Technique Xuanling Technique is close to that of a mid-grade Attack Profound Spirit Technique! Among those present, individuals like Lin Xiaodu, Ye Qingyuan, Lin Lang, and others are the most relaxed, as they have already witnessed Ling Chen’s strength. The fiery red finger is extremely fast, nearly reaching Ling Chen in an instant. A triumphant smile even appears on Su Qingying’s face. "Cloud Smoke Step!" Just then, Ling Chen utters a low shout, his footing shifts, and his figure vanishes like smoke, reappearing three yards away. His Blast Flame Finger misses entirely.

Previously, Ling Chen displaying the second tier of the Spirit Sea Realm was already surprising enough. Who would have thought Ling Chen could also execute a Body Technique Xuanling Technique? "You’re trying to kill me?" Ling Chen stares at Su Qingying, his voice cold. The attack targeted his head; if he had failed to dodge, he would have undoubtedly suffered a fatal blow. "No." Su Qingying quickly denies. "I hope that was an unintentional act," Ling Chen scoffs: "If there’s a next time, I will ensure you disappear forever!" The opponent clearly had a chance to attack his back, but instead targeted the vital area of the head. "Moreover, with your level of strength, even if you wanted to kill me, you’re not qualified!" As soon as he finishes speaking, Ling Chen moves, swiftly approaching Su Qingying. "Hmph!" Su Qingying also snorted coldly, her Jade Foot twinkling as she employed the Flying Swallow Flash to dodge away. Unfortunately, in terms of Spiritual Power, she was no match for Ling Chen. Both were using the same Body Technique Xuanling Technique, and so, speed-wise, she was completely suppressed by Ling Chen. "You’ve lost!" Ling Chen found an opportunity, a Cloud Mist Palm strike thundering towards her. "Bang!" The Cloud Mist Palm shattered Su Qingying’s Falling Flower Palm and then directly slammed into her chest. "Thump thump!" Su Qingying’s tiptoes tapped dozens of times on the arena floor before she could stabilize her stance. "Spit!" Just as she steadied herself, she felt a sweetness in her throat, and a mouthful of fresh blood spurted out. "I concede!" Ignoring her injuries, she immediately spoke up to Qin Lie. She was no match for Ling Chen at all and feared his possible vengeance, which made her concede hastily. "Ling Chen wins." Qin Lie promptly announced. He gave Ling Chen a deep, complex look. The subsequent battles were even more intense, with combatants of closer cultivation levels. The final fight had even lasted for two quarter-hours, until a genius named Ling Jinglong, by a slight advantage in Spiritual Power, defeated his opponent to secure advancement. Thus, the top ten of the True Martial Trial emerged. They were: Su Lin, Su Wu, Ling Yunfei, Lin Qingtian, Lin Xiaodu, Lin Ye, Ling Chen, Ye Qingyuan, Su Rui, and Ling Jinglong. Among them, only Ye Qingyuan was not a scion of the three prominent families in Guangling City. Each of the three major cultivation families had, incidentally, three representatives. Had it not been for the rise of Ling Chen, the Ling Family might have only had two. After the top ten were decided, today’s True Martial Trial matches came to an end. Tomorrow, these ten will fight the final battles for the mere three available spots to enter the True Martial Academy! ... Night fell. Ling Chen was cultivating in his room. "Young Master, the Family Head has arrived." Ling Wu reported at the door. "Family Head?" Ling Chen stopped his cultivation and stepped out the door. "Yes, he awaits you in the living room!" Ling Wu said. "Mhm, take me to see him." Ling Chen nodded and followed Ling Wu to the living room. "I wonder why the Family Head visits late at night; what brings you here?" Ling Chen asked. His tone was quite indifferent. Ling Tianfeng’s past behavior had deeply hurt Ling Chen. Feeling Ling Chen’s cold demeanor, Ling Tianfeng felt a pang in his heart. Nevertheless, he bowed to Ling Chen and said, "Chen Er, I am here tonight to apologize to you. I should not have been so power-hungry before." Ling Chen softly replied, "What wrong have you done, Family Head?" "Chen Er, I don’t expect your forgiveness. But I hope you understand my intentions; I did it all for the family, with no selfish desires!" Ling Tianfeng spoke. "Here are a hundred mid-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pills, as compensation from the family! Should you need anything in the future, just say the word. As long as it’s within our family’s capabilities, we will prioritize your needs!" He took out a ring. "Mid-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pills?" Ling Chen’s eyes sharpened. Spirit Revitalizing Pills had their own grades. Ordinary cultivators in the Qi Condensation Realm could use low-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pills, which were what he had purchased before. But at the Spirit Sea Realm level, the effectiveness of the low-grade pills wasn’t very good. Hence, higher-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pills would be needed. However, his cultivation level had improved so rapidly recently that he hadn’t had the chance to exchange for them! The effect of a mid-grade Spirit Revitalizing Pill should be roughly equivalent to ten low-grade ones. Then, Ling Chen’s pupils contracted once again, his gaze fixed on the ring: "This is..."
