CHAPTER 1009: CHAPTER 810: FINAL BATTLE, THE CURTAIN FALLS (EXTENDED CHAPTER)

On the arena,

Vito stared straight at the small figure over a hundred meters away, took a deep breath.

In the Spirit Space, he had challenged Duan Qin’s mirror image several times, and without exception, he lost each time, unable to see where Duan Qin’s upper limit was.

But,

’Coach Long Tao was right, as a gunner, one must press forward without hesitation!’

Vito kept accumulating momentum, the fierce aura rising from his body like golden flames burning.

His hair stood up!

Step—

With a fierce stomp, cracks spidered across the hard and solid arena floor.

Vito turned into a flash of golden light, advancing without hesitation!

The sharp aura made many Transcendent Tiers outside the arena blink repeatedly.

In the eyes of real strong individuals,

the move Vito displayed surpasses Eva and Gu Tang from earlier, and can be called the strongest among the exchange students!

Swish!

Duan Qin moved, standing still, she just raised the seemingly cumbersome Yanyue Blade, lifted it high, and suddenly struck down.

A brilliant crescent-shaped sword light blasted out, the arena floor cracking as it passed.

Small stones flew into the air.

Transcendents outside the arena were shocked.

Without the previous battle, they wouldn’t think much of it; for Transcendent Tiers, leveling a small hill in one move is not difficult.

However,

In the previous match, Gu Tang’s sharp Sword Qi only left some mottled marks on the arena floor.

In this match, Duan Qin’s sword light easily split the ground.

The gap is obvious!

Facing Duan Qin’s sword light directly, Vito’s hairs stood on end.

He didn’t attempt to dodge.

That’s useless!

Facing Duan Qin’s mirror image, Vito had tried many times; only by confronting her sword light head-on was there a chance at survival!

He raised his gun and stabbed!

The golden light was so dazzling it seemed to blind eyes.

No, it’s not just a semblance.

If it wasn’t for the barriers around the arena, just this sudden burst of golden light would be enough to hurt the eyes of anyone below Middle-tier Awakener level, causing them to bleed!

"The gun force has reached mastery, he’s getting close to touching the threshold of the domain, a promising talent."

Blade Series Coach Wang Wensheng said with a smile.

"Still far from Duan Qin." Gun Series Coach Long Tao shook his head slightly, yet maintained a smile.

Buzz!!!

The brilliant sword light met the silver-white sword light, in an instant, ripples spread out.

Fierce winds swirled in the arena, the ground at the collision point cracked open.

Vito’s golden hair flew wildly, Source Power blasted out frantically.

The gun light shattered the sword light, the Divine Weapon long spear struck straight at Duan Qin dozens of meters away.

Dozens of meters,

For Transcendent Tiers, a mere instant.

Duan Qin remained expressionless, simply struck down again.

The sword momentum was heavier, the sword light surged like a towering tsunami.

"Ahhhhh——"

Vito’s eyes filled with blood, he roared, the gun’s tip stabbing out dozens of illusions, converging into a single point.

Burning Source Power, he stabbed heavily.

Boom!!

The same airflow spread, sweeping across the arena.

But Vito’s tiger mouth burst, blood dripped from the corners of his mouth, he staggered back a dozen steps.

And at that moment,

Duan Qin struck the third blow.

Vito’s exhausted counterattack was engulfed by the sword light.

Everything it passed turned into void, the dazzling white light shrouded him.

In the stands,

Rex suddenly stood up, not only concerned for Vito, the talented junior, but Duan Qin’s slash left him feeling uneasy, as a chill surged to the top of his skull.

Imagining the situation,

If he were in Vito’s place, facing that slash, Rex wasn’t confident he could stop it completely either.

"Too strong, that young girl definitely has the power to threaten me. I heard she’s not even sixteen yet?

Give her another year of cultivation, I’m afraid I won’t be her match."

Witch Helen smiled without speaking.

Yet her eyes hid deep meanings.

Leaving Rex puzzled.

Did he say something wrong?

On the arena,

When the white light dissipated, Vito had already fainted on the ground, not many wounds on him.

The medical team’s Clergy and Pharmacists quickly took him away for treatment.

The graduation assessment battles continued,

Each match of high quality, leaving guests from afar in awe, while deciding they must make more spots for exchange students.

Especially the Overlord Level forces.

Already at a disadvantage, with fewer resources, they wished they could send all talented individuals with good potential to World Tree Academy for training.

Of course, once trained, they have to return.

One by one, top Heavenly Pride students defeated their opponents.

Not long before the final battle began.

"Student Duan Qin against student Ji Kaipeng."

The referee shouted.

Duan Qin, holding the Yanyue Blade, and Ji Kaipeng, holding a shield and short sword, stepped onto the arena.

Two people,

One is the Great Demon King overwhelming the academy.

The other, before Duan Qin emerged, had occupied the top spot for half a year.

Naturally, many students still favored Duan Qin.

Even if they hadn’t seen the two truly clash, the Heavenly Ladder rankings are the best proof.

Ji Kaipeng surely challenged Duan Qin.

Unfortunately,

The betting in Green Shadow City doesn’t include betting on the victory or defeat of Duan Qin and Ji Kaipeng.

Even if it did, it would likely only trick those outsider forces who don’t know much about either.

The betting includes,

Only options for one minute, three minutes, ten minutes, thirty minutes, an hour, etc.

Betting on the time it takes for Duan Qin and Ji Kaipeng to decide the victory.

"I’ll bet ten... no, three minutes, staking fifty thousand Source Crystals!"

"Duan Qin usually finishes off opponents in less than three moves, in total less than ten seconds, even if she uses ten moves against Ji Kaipeng, it won’t exceed a minute... betting on one minute, steady!"

"Win it’ll be Club XX, lose it’ll be Club XX!"
