Chapter 64: The Dog Beating Spear Technique Reappears
By revealing his freakishly tough body, Lin Yun had made everyone present look at him in a new light. The Martial Artists who had previously thought his cultivation was too low now completely placed him on the same level as the other three of the Four Great Young Masters.
"Impossible... impossible... How is this possible..." While the others were surprised, the Blood Refining Young Master was completely dumbfounded, muttering the words over and over.
After taking the Blood Refining Young Master’s attack head-on, Lin Yun now had a better understanding of his body’s limits. Although his right hand was nearly numb, he was still thrilled. ’The Flawless Flesh Body from the Flawless Palace is truly formidable!’
With a flash of light, the Overlord Spear appeared in Lin Yun’s hand. He looked at the stupefied Blood Refining Young Master and shouted coldly, "I’ll be taking your treasures today."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yun charged at the Blood Refining Young Master with his Overlord Spear. The young master, still in a daze, had no reaction whatsoever.
"Brat! What kind of skill is it to take advantage of someone’s vulnerability?" Seeing this, the Blood Refining Ancestor roared from the viewing stands. It was this very roar that snapped the Blood Refining Young Master back to reality, allowing him to narrowly avoid Lin Yun’s spear strike.
"Blood Refining Ancestor, what is the meaning of this? Do you intend to interfere in a match between juniors?" Ye Yunlong said, displeased by the Blood Refining Ancestor’s blatant interference.
Hearing this, the Blood Refining Ancestor, knowing he was in the wrong, just snorted coldly. He was incredibly frustrated; nothing was going according to plan.
Lin Yun’s strength had far exceeded their expectations. Now, with even the Blood Refining Young Master at a complete disadvantage, they all felt their confidence waver. They might end up suffering a double loss today.
"Lin Yun, I’ll kill you! I refuse to believe you can block my Blood Cloud Slash!" Having snapped out of it, the Blood Refining Young Master had become frenzied. He was an incredibly proud person, and Lin Yun had humiliated him time and time again during this match. Now, the only thought in his mind was to kill Lin Yun.
Roaring, the Blood Refining Young Master attacked Lin Yun like a madman. He swung his long saber again and again, sending waves of blood-red blade energy hurtling toward Lin Yun.
"To have such a weak Mental Realm and still call yourself a Young Master... you’re a laughingstock," Lin Yun sneered as he watched the frenzied Blood Refining Young Master. He then executed Inch Step, skillfully dodging every one of the man’s attacks.
"Damn it! That’s my Inch Step! Lin Yun, I won’t let you get away with this!" As Lin Yun used Inch Step on stage, a monk wearing a wig spoke viciously from a corner below. Every time the Monk and Daoist saw Lin Yun, their hearts bled; he had stolen all of their possessions.
On top of that, the two of them were being hunted by countless Martial Artists in the Mysterious City, and it was all Lin Yun’s fault.
"Just die! Die! DIE...!" Ignoring Lin Yun’s evasions, the Blood Refining Young Master continued his frenzied assault, his Elemental Power going completely berserk.
"Hmph. Take this! Dog Beating Spear Technique!" After a few quick dodges, Lin Yun appeared before the Blood Refining Young Master. Treating his Overlord Spear like a club, he brought it down hard on the young master’s head.
Lost in his rage, the Blood Refining Young Master made no attempt to dodge. The heavy blow from Lin Yun left him dizzy and dazed, blood streaming down his head.
Having landed a successful hit, Lin Yun didn’t pause. The Dog Beating Spear Technique from the Yunlu Mountain Range now reappeared in the Mysterious City. His Overlord Spear became a veritable Black Iron Rod, repeatedly striking the Blood Refining Young Master’s body.
Crying out in pain, the Blood Refining Young Master scrambled to dodge. At that moment, he truly looked like a beaten dog, being chased around by Lin Yun and his spear.
The crowd was dumbfounded by the sudden turn of events on the stage. ’What kind of Spear Technique is that? It’s so bizarre!’ It was beating the Blood Refining Young Master into complete submission.
After a sound thrashing, the Blood Refining Young Master’s face was swollen like a pig’s head. His clothes were in tatters, and he looked utterly wretched.
Lin Yun’s Dog Beating Spear Technique only inflicted superficial wounds, so while the wretched Blood Refining Young Master could still stand, his appearance was anything but dignified.
"Lin Yun... I... I’ll kill you," the Blood Refining Young Master slurred, his face a swollen mess. But as soon as the words left his mouth, he was met with another round of Lin Yun’s Dog Beating Spear Technique.
After another thrashing, the Blood Refining Young Master finally broke down and cried. Two lines of tears streamed faintly from the corners of his eyes. ’This is so fucking humiliating! This isn’t a duel between Martial Artists, this is a back-alley brawl!’
Every one of Lin Yun’s strikes was excruciatingly painful, yet they contained no Elemental Power and only caused superficial injuries. Even so, the Blood Refining Young Master wished he could just pass out.
’To be beaten so viciously in front of so many Martial Artists from the Mysterious City... I’ll never be able to show my face in public again.’
Lying on the ground, the Blood Refining Young Master decided to feign unconsciousness, but in his heart, he swore he would kill Lin Yun.
"Huh? He’s out already? And he’s supposed to be one of the damn Four Great Young Masters? How weak," Lin Yun muttered in dissatisfaction, looking at the unconscious Blood Refining Young Master.
Hearing this, the Blood Refining Young Master spat out a mouthful of blood...
In truth, the Blood Refining Young Master had been thoroughly wronged today. He hadn’t even had a chance to fully display his strength before Lin Yun broke his composure. The failure of his Blood Refining Technique at the start could be called fate; Lin Yun possessed two Unparalleled Techniques that naturally served as a hard counter to it.
Against anyone else, it would never have been this easy.
Because of this, the Blood Refining Young Master’s arrogant personality became his greatest weakness. Consumed by rage, he completely lost his rationality and was led around by the nose by Lin Yun, only to be brutally beaten in the end.
It could be said that the Blood Refining Young Master hadn’t used even half of his true strength in today’s match, which was why Lin Yun was able to win so easily.
This match was a perfect demonstration of how crucial a stable Mental Realm is for a Martial Artist.
The Blood Refining Young Master had no chance of victory, and both the Imprisoned Dragon Young Master and the Iron Blood Young Master had no strength left to fight. At this point, the "friendly" tournament between the Four Great Young Masters seemed to have reached its conclusion.
But just then, the Blood Refining Ancestor, his expression dark, stood up from the viewing stands and declared loudly, "The Blood Refining Young Master and Young Master Yun are both outstanding young talents of the Mysterious City. This has been an extremely exciting match. In the spirit of a friendly exchange of pointers, their battle has been wonderful to watch. I say this match should end in a draw."
The moment the Blood Refining Ancestor spoke, all the spectating Martial Artists erupted in boos. ’That old codger is truly shameless. His disciple was clearly beaten like a dog, and he still has the gall to say something like that?’
Hearing the boos from below, the Blood Refining Ancestor felt his old face flush with shame. He snorted coldly, and the aura of a Primordial Ocean Realm expert instantly pressed down on the crowd like a mountain.
Feeling the immense pressure coming from the Blood Refining Ancestor, the scornful Martial Artists quickly silenced their boos. Faced with a Primordial Ocean Realm expert, they didn’t dare voice any opposition, no matter how dissatisfied they felt.
