Chapter 210 (2/2)

To think that it was a longsword with no physical form, and that it purely burned endlessly, like flames!

A term immediately appeared in Fang Xingjian’s mind, ‘Laser sword?’

The level 29 Superior Divine Weapon Hoult was holding was a treasured sword similar to a laser sword.

As if satisfied with everyone’s surprised gazes, Hoult revealed a slight smile. Then, with a low bellow accompanying the strong exertion of forces with both his arms, a violent heat wave surged forth. Everyone could feel the frantically surging temperatures, as if they had suddenly been transported into a desert.

Rota’s pupils contracted as she stared at the Crimson Fire longsword. The flames that formed the longsword continued to rise in temperature, and after about one minute, they turned into a viscous liquid substance. They had seemingly turned into a live fire snake, swaying continuously while emitting astonishingly high temperatures.

Holding the Crimson Fire longsword, which had already reached a temperature thousands degrees high, Hoult slashed and activated the Killing technique.

The flaming longsword turned into a fire snake and pounced forth furiously. Wherever it passed the air became twisted, releasing tremoring explosions as it fully encompassed the metal alloy pillar, as if the fire snake had swallowed it whole.

Consecutive booming sounds rang out, marking several consecutive explosions. The high temperature was maintained in the fire snake’s stomach, and the metal pillar was melting and breaking at a speed that could be seen by the naked eye.

When Hoult drew back Crimson Fire, the entire surface of the metal pillar was now in a state akin to lava. One-third of the pillar had also been completely dissolved and was slowly recovering. However, compared to before, its recovery speed was more than a hundred times slower than before.

Hssss!

Looking at this scene, everyone present drew in a mouthful of cold air. Such damage prowess was even more terrifying than the one Shadow Death God Anderson had previously demonstrated.

It was hard to imagine what kind of person could stay alive in the Crimson Fire’s stomach. If Hoult had sufficient time to unleash a few more attacks, he would probably be able to melt the whole metal pillar.

However, after unleashing this attack, the Crimson Fire also turned back to the normal flames it had first started out as. Clearly, to perform this move each time, a large amount of energy first had to be accumulated.

The requirement to accumulate such a tremendous amount of energy reduced the practicality of using this move in actual combat. However, it was very reasonable to be used in the Slashing the Heavenly Pillar stage. It was because what they were competing in was pure damage prowess.

And although Hoult’s Fire Dragon Slash required energy accumulation, its damage prowess was astonishing.

Seeing this, Governor Devitt sighed and said, “The Crimson Fire… It’s been awhile since I last saw it.”

Hoult smiled and said, “Teacher also said that he misses you.”

“Haha, that old man won’t miss me at all. I’m the one who stole his girlfriend and made her my wife.”

Hathaway frowned coldly and scolded in her heart, “This old man!”

Devitt then continued, “Although this in an ingenious move using accumulated energies, it is too dependent on the advantage of your weapon. I can only give you 55 points.”

“I thank the lord for your guidance.”

The white-haired Commissioner of Education, Luke, grinned, and with trembling lips he spoke out in a frail voice, “As expected of one under the Astral Ancestor. Just looking at the Crimson Fire and your cultivation level, this year’s Regional Champion should be you. I give you 60 points.”

When Devitt heard this, he frowned. Luke was obviously licking the Divine level expert’s boots without any shame.

Capable looking Yaris, who was the youngest amongst them all, said, “It’s really powerful. The final high temperature should be able to melt a Superior Divine Weapon. Just based on this alone, your future accomplishments will be no lower than your master’s. I’ll give you 58 points.”

Armstrong was the last to speak. As he spoke, the scars on his face started twisting around like centipedes. “A magnificent attack with a powerful attack prowess. However, the movements required to accumulate energy are too much of a hindrance. It’s not practical for combat use. I’ll give 54 points.”

With that, Hoult’s attack got him 56.75 points, a whole 8.75 points more than Anderson.
