While everyone stared at him in shock, Lin Han walked down from the platform with a flat expression.

The Outer Residence Competition was a walk in the park for Lin Han. What he was really looking forward to was the following Inner Residence Martial Arts Tea Party.

That was where the elites of the Residence focused on.

The fight then continued.

However, looking at Lin Han standing quietly in the crowd, a glint of fear appeared in the eyes of the disciples from the Outer Residence.

It seemed that Lin Han was slated for success in this competition.

“Number 33, against number 90!”

It was Lin Han’s turn to fight again.

This time, Lin Han’s opponent was a young man with a cool and strict expression on his face.

“Lin Han, I know that you’re strong, but the martial art I practiced is…”

Clang!

The sound of swords rang, loud as thunder, as if the air itself was going to be torn apart.

“Ah!”

A terrifying scream then followed.

A figure was thrown away and fell outside the platform.

The young man with a straight face did not get to finish his jabbering. His defense was broken through by Lin Han in one blow and he was swept out from the platform by his blade. It was an instant victory.

“Shing!”

Lin Han sheathed his sword and walked down from the platform. He was emotionless.

He defeated his opponent in one blow, again!

At the moment, all of the disciples in the Outer Residence were all seething.

Even the disciples from the Inner Residence felt threatened by his display.

This young swordsman in green from the Outer Residence had given them too much pressure.

The competition continued.

As expected, Lin Han defeated all of his opponents, regardless of gender, in one blow and swept them all out from the platform.

His opponents were not even able to discern the swings of his sword.

“Lin Han, the tale of your string of victories ends here!” someone sneered suddenly.

It was Lin Ran!

Finally, Lin Han met someone that had real strength – Lin Ran was ranked fifth in the Outer Residence.

Right then, a lot of disciples outside the platform looked nervous.

Can Lin Han, the biggest dark horse in this Outer Residence Competition, continue his undefeated streak?

“One blow.”

Lin Han spoke.

He sounded normal but high-handed.

“I’m not like those good-for-nothings. Lin Han, it’s time for your defeat!”

Boom!

A powerful breath came out from Lin Ran’s body and spread across the entire arena.

The fifth tier of martial arts!

For the first time, a powerful opponent at the martial arts fifth tier appeared.

“Heheh.”

Lin Ran looked cool and fierce. He guffawed, “Lin Han, you can never overcome the difference in strength between tiers!”

Boom!

“Majestic Devil Ape!”

“Through-arm Deity Fist!”

Lin Ran roared out of a sudden.

The very next moment, his arms started to bulge at a visible rate. His muscles contracted and expanded at an egregious rate, even his skin turned black-purple, diffusing an aura similar to that of the evil spirit from an ancient beast.

“It’s the power of bloodline!”

Someone from the crowd exclaimed, “It is said that Lin Ran has a small trace of the bloodline from an ancient devil ape. The Majestic Devil Ape skill that he practiced can stimulate the bloodline and induce explosive strength!”

“Lin Han, you’re doomed to be my stepping stone. Let me be the one that ends your victories!”

The eyes of Lin Ran seemed to be covered by a layer of blood.

His strength was at its limits. His arms were black and purple, as if a huge devil ape was roaring and rearing to shred everything in its path.

“Quick Draw Sword!”

Unexpectedly, Lin Han shouted.

Shink!

The next moment, a shocking ray of sword-light drew across the air and punctured both of Lin Ran’s arms.

“Ah!” Lin Ran let out a blood-curdling scream. He looked at his shredded arms and screamed, “This is impossible! Lin Han, it’s impossible that you can puncture my devil arms with just the Quick Draw Sword technique!”

“Who told you that Quick Draw Sword is the only technique I know?”

Lin Han tightened his lips and said, “Go down yourself or I’ll send you down.”

“You…”

Lin Ran’s face turned sour immediately.
