"This Aolai Mubai, he probably hasn't put forth his full strength yet, or perhaps, he still has some cards up his sleeve!"

Lin Yun quietly thought to himself.

"Boom! Boom!"

As he pondered this, Lin Yun fought back, using his attacks to fend off Aolai Mubai's assault.

"So many monsters..."

From below the platform, Xiao Chong shook his head in disbelief.

There were too many monsters in this Heavenly Principle Fruit competition.

Those merely at the Half Step Super Realm could rival the true Super Warriors.

This sort of power to fight beyond one's level was not ordinarily terrifying.

Of great importance... there was more than one of these monsters.

"Before, I thought that with my strength, I had a good chance of earning a spot for the Heavenly Principle Fruit, but now it seems that I don't have a chance at all..."

Xiao Chong sighed.

He was not inherently powerful.

In terms of talent and potential, he was inferior to many.

"Indeed, who would've thought that there would be so many monsters in this competition? Feiying Firestone, Aolai Mubai, they aren't even in the top three of their current level. Plus the few individuals earlier, ordinary monstrous geniuses stand no chance of receiving the Heavenly Principle Fruit!"

Qing Luo and Lianshan nodded in agreement, sighing.

At this moment, they all felt like frogs at the bottom of the well, only coming to realize today just how many monstrous talents there were in this universe and how powerful they were.

"Luckily, I have already advanced to the Super Realm and won't have to compete with them anymore." Xiao Chong chuckled, speaking out.

It was a relief indeed.

At this moment, he was even more grateful to Lin Yun.

Originally, he had thought that even if he didn't use the Super Golden Liquid to advance to the Super Realm, he still had a huge probability of securing a Heavenly Principle Fruit. In contrast, he would have gained more benefits using the Heavenly Principle Fruit.

Because of this, he regretted not being able to participate in this grand competition after advancing to the Super Realm.

However, at this moment, he had no regrets left.

He was simply relieved.

Thankfully, when he thought he was about to advance to the Super Realm previously, he didn't deliberately suppress it and prevent the breakthrough.

Otherwise, he would really be crying now.

On the competition stage.

"I didn't expect your strength to be so formidable. I must have underestimated you!"

Finding himself unable to overcome Lin Yun despite continuously escalating his attacks, Aolai Mubai's pupils slightly contracted as he spoke softly.

He had not fought Feiying Firestone before and wasn't very clear about the latter's exact strength.

Many things appear simple, but when you try to do them yourself, you discover how difficult they are.

At this moment, that was precisely Aolai Mubai's impression of Lin Yun's strength.

Previously, when Lin Yun battled Feiying Firestone, he hadn't found Lin Yun particularly powerful.

Now that it was his turn to take action, he realized that Lin Yun's strength was not as simple as he had imagined.

"Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Lin Yun paid no heed to Aolai Mubai, continually attacking him using the Bloodthirsty Sword.

At the same time, he remained vigilant in his heart in case Aolai Mubai suddenly used some unexpected method.

"Incredible! Really incredible!"

"They've already reached the level of the Super Warriors, haven't they?"

"This is true talent! All the talents we saw before look like trash in comparison!"

Watching the exchange of attacks between Lin Yun and Aolai Mubai, many cultivators at the base of the arena exclaimed in astonishment.

Unlike the true Super Warriors, who fought with immense power partly because their own physical strength was truly formidable and partly because their practiced law power was even stronger, resulting in qualitative changes.

The law power is profound beyond comprehension.

The law power exhibited by Super Warriors often proved too complex for ordinary cultivators to comprehend.

Lin Yun was merely a peak 12th level cultivator and Aolai Mubai was only a half-step Super Realm warrior.

The attack and defense of the two were clearer to many cultivators underneath the stage, causing them to be even more impressed.

"So attacking and defending can be done like this!"

"What an eye-opener! Once I properly digest the information from this fight, my strength will definitely improve further!"

"Just by watching this fight, I did not make the trip to the Heavenly Principle Fruit competition in vain!"

"It's a pity that by the time my strength increases further, it would have already been too long. This competition can't wait, otherwise, I could've performed even better!"

Many Cultivators' eyes gleamed with radiance, they all started to comment.

Not long after, the strength used by Lin Yun was still rising, the strength exerted by Aolai Mubai, however, could no longer increase, and Aolai Mubai's face was becoming increasingly gloomy.

"Heaven's Punishment Thunder!"

Eventually, Aolai Mubai spoke with a deep voice.

"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"

Numerous dark objects were flung out from Aolai Mubai's large sleeves rapidly approaching Lin Yun.

"Heaven's Punishment Thunder!"

"So many Heaven's Punishment Thunders!"

Many people exclaimed.

The Heaven's Punishment Thunder, similar to the Heaven-Shocking Divine Thunder, albeit more powerful, was said to pose a threat to Super Warriors.

This competition had no prohibition on using treasures other than their own strength.

With hundreds of thousands of arenas and billions of participants over so many days, there were some who used the Heaven's Punishment Thunder.

However, this was extremely rare.

On one hand, the Heaven's Punishment Thunder was extremely expensive and scarce, most people could not afford it, and there was no place to purchase it.

On the other hand, using the Heaven's Punishment Thunder might be of little value. Even if you can secure the top three places, if you can't get them, don't expect to catch the judges' eyes, so as to get the allocation quota of the Heavenly Principle Fruit given by being "considered".

It was just not worth it.

Some top-ranked gifted prodigies also had their own arrogance, they would not use such an external item like the Heaven's Punishment Thunder.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Aolai Mubai used it.

"How despicable, actually using the Heaven's Punishment Thunder!"

"Even if he wins, it's not a martial victory!"

"We can't say that, Lin Yun is only this powerful because he is using the Bloodthirsty Sword. If he didn't use the Bloodthirsty Sword, he might not have been a match for Aolai Mubai. If he can use the Bloodthirsty Sword, why can't Aolai Mubai use the Heaven's Punishment Thunder?"

"Exactly, the Bloodthirsty Sword is too powerful, Lin Yun should not have used it. He used the Bloodthirsty Sword, so he can't blame others for using the Heaven's Punishment Thunder!"

"Humph! How long has Aolai Mubai been cultivating and how long has Lin Yun been cultivating? Aolai Mubai is even in the Half Step Super Realm and Lin Yun is only at the Peak of the Twelfth Level. How do you explain this?"

On the stage, many Cultivators, upon seeing this scene, let out cold hums.

Some stood on Aolai Mubai's side, while some on Lin Yun's.

"Heaven's Punishment Thunder, huh?"

Simultaneously, on the stage, Lin Yun, seeing so many Heaven's Punishment Thunders rushing towards himself, his pupils slightly contracted, he muttered in a low voice.

"Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!"

The hand holding his sword moved, releasing even more blood-colored light, slashing at these Heaven's Punishment Thunders.

At the same time, he deployed more defensive measures around himself.

"Boom! Boom——"

Shortly after, Lin Yun's attack collided with the Heaven's Punishment Thunder, exploding together, a terrifying force of explosion quickly broke through Lin Yun's attack and continued to strike towards Lin Yun, which contained powerful thunderous energy.

"Heaven's Punishment Thunder! It contains the power of Thunder Tribulation! Such a powerful Heaven's Punishment Thunder!"

Lin Yun's face slightly changed.

Swoosh!

Lin Yun swiftly retreated while simultaneously attacking these Heaven's Punishment Thunders using the Bloodthirsty Sword.

As long as he blocked these Heaven's Punishment Thunders, it would suffice.

"Well done Lin Yun, well done Bloodthirsty Sword, he actually managed to block so many Heaven's Punishment Thunders…" Aolai Mubai muttered to himself.

He had already suspected that Lin Yun hadn't exerted his full strength earlier, yet, seeing Lin Yun displaying such formidable strength was still disturbing to him.

This signified... He needed to use even more Heaven's Punishment Thunders to possibly defeat Lin Yun.

Even though, their clan produced Heaven's Punishment Thunders, each one was not cheap to manufacture, he would save a lot of resources by using one less.

"Take another wave of Heaven's Punishment Thunder!"

Just when Lin Yun was about to block all of the Heaven's Punishment Thunders, Aolai Mubai declared solemnly.

With a wave of his hand, a dozen more Heaven's Punishment Thunders were flung out once again.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

One after another, the Heaven's Punishment Thunders quickly flashed in front of Lin Yun, colliding with Lin Yun's attack and defense.

"Could this be your trump card? If I don't show my might, you really think I'm easy to bully!"

A cold gleam flashed in Lin Yun's eyes, he muttered quietly.

Previously, he did not exert his full force, as he had been wary of Aolai Mubai having some trump cards. He held some power back, in case Aolai Mubai deployed his trump card, he could still react accordingly to the situation.

Now, Aolai Mubai using so many Heaven's Punishment Thunders, has ironically caused him to let out a sigh of relief.

If this was indeed Aolai Mubai's trump card, then, against these trump cards, he certainly wasn't without defensive capabilities.
