1309 Lin Huang Enters The Trial (1/2)
In a messy room, a corpse chopped off at the waist showed clear marks of cauterization. There were similar traces of scorching on the wall to the right and the wall next to the window.
Even though the extreme heat had cauterized the body enough to prevent extensive loss of blood, fresh purplish-red blood still managed to stain at least half of the floor in the room.
A man wearing a white shirt stood in the room, the area around his feet coincidentally free of blood.
Blood was still dripping from the blade of the long sword in his hand like rainwater from a roof.
\”Can't believe how weak this fellow was,\” the man in the white shirt commented while eyeing the body.
\”If my opponents are all like this, even if I mess up I might be number one too, what more that Fallen Star girl.\”
In the entire Death Sickle organization, there was only one person with a thick enough skin to come up with a quip like that—Destiny.
However, Destiny quickly turned his gaze away from the dead body to look at the wall.
'I knew something strange was going on when I used my sword just now; how come the walls are only marked by cuts?! Not to brag but one slash and I can kill a True God, as well as quite a few Rank-9 Virtual Gods. In the God Territory, I don't even know how many houses I'd destroy with a single slash! But here I can't even stab through a single wall?!\”
'I'm sure this restriction was put in place in the trial space to prevent these buildings from getting severely damaged. But that's a bit cruel. Could Boss Xie Lin break through these walls, I wonder…'
...
58 minutes after all competitors had entered the Competitive Trial.
A figure suddenly emerged in one of the houses in the trial space.
Upon realizing that he was now standing in a building, Lin Huang paused in confusion.
He was in the living room of a small residential unit. The living room was rather small with an open concept kitchen. Altogether, the space measured around forty square meters.
After scanning his surroundings, Lin Huang sent out his Divine Telekinesis. His brow furrowed.
'The probing range for Divine Telekinesis has really been severely reduced. It only has a maximum radius of 1000 meters…'
Thankfully, Lin Huang did not detect anything out of the ordinary within range of his Divine Telekinesis. Immediately, he let his consciousness sink within his body to check on his personal status.
'Most abilities are not restricted. Monster Cards and multi-function cards are all permissible. Combat Souls and God's Figurines are permissible too. Although Divine Telekinesis has been reduced in range, its strength hasn't been reduced. It's a pity that those god telekinetic weapon relics mentioned in the rules can't be used here.'
After confirming that these restrictions on his abilities did not put him at too much of a disadvantage, Lin Huang felt a bit more at ease.
It was at this moment that a push notification popped up before Lin Huang's eyes.
\”Participant, please set a username. If no username is chosen, the participant's real name shall be automatically used. (Username set up is a participant-only privilege. Competitors are required to use their real names in this Trial.)\”
\”Xie Lin,\” Lin Huang gave the name he used in the God Territory.
\”Set up complete. The participant's name is 'Xie Lin'.\”
After setting up his name, Lin Huang noticed that he could now check the rankings on the leaderboard.
Lin Huang expanded the leaderboard out of curiosity.
\”1. Shen Wushuang: 5 cumulative points\”
\”2. Yi Ke: 3 cumulative points\”
