Teng Sen, unabashed by the gawking eyes, entered the competition arena with his disciples.


    Granted, being pinned down by Ning Xiuchen brought shame, but it wasn''t enough to shatter his will.


    He vowed to channel his humiliation into motivation, preparing fiercely for his revenge.


    This time, he''d have his disciples show their might in the competition, letting everyone see the strength of the Demon Abyss Imperial Dynasty''s talents.


    "Xu Zhen, you''re to challenge him. Use all your strength. If anything unexpected happens, the imperial court will have your back."


    When the Demon Abyss Imperial Dynasty directly issued a challenge, Great Wu could not be intimidated. The True God frostily commanded.


    "I will follow your guidance!" Xu Zhen shifted his attention to the opponent, "Please, instruct me." Enjoy new stories from empire


    "Great Wu Dynasty''s talent? Worthy of a match against me? Today, I will show you what true power is!"


    The challenger turned twenty, reaching the age limit for juniors. He was a rising star, nurtured within the Demon Abyss Imperial Dynasty.


    With a single stride, he threw a powerful punch, unleashing a torrent of Demonic Qi, invoking his Divine Abilities, transforming the entire battlefield into a Demon Realm.


    "The talents of Demon Abyss Imperial Dynasty!"


    A crowd quickly gathered to watch the fight.


    The Seven Star Imperial Dynasty boasted a Celestial God while the Six Star owned only a True God. The difference in national power was substantial and thus, comparing the resources and Divine Abilities given to their talents was difficult.


    "It looks like Xu Zhen''s streak of victories will finally end." The crowd speculated.


    The gap was quite wide, after all, the two differed in age by five years.


    "Great Sun Golden Crow!"


    Boom!


    A golden beam swept across. Behind Xu Zhen emerged a Great Sun Golden Crow. After consuming several drops of the Golden Crow Celestial God''s divine nectar and gleaning from the Golden Crow''s skeletal remains, he understood this Supreme Divine Power.


    On the battlefield, in an instant, the Golden Crow swallowed the Demon Abyss Imperial Dynasty''s talent


    The Demonic Qi burned. In a single move, Xu Zhen had defeated his adversary. The victim of the Golden Crow let out an agonizing cry. Reduced to a lump of coal, he fell, his fate unknown.


    "He defeated his opponent in one move, his Divine Ability so domineering!"


    "But Xu Zhen was still only an eliminated competitor in the domestic Great Wu competition, he could only be considered second-tier!"


    "If a second-tier talent could display such power, just how formidable would their main team be, this talent of Great Wu is really too powerful!"


    ...


    The crowd chattered away, when the Demon Abyss sent out its talents, they were bound to be formidable, but they ended up being defeated in a single move.


    If their strongest players were this powerful, it could be explained. But even Xu Zhen, who didn''t even qualify to represent Great Wu in the competition, was this powerful.


    As his special constitution tilted towards flame abilities, a golden crow emerged, stubbornly resisting Ji Xuan''s demon sword.


    Ji Xuan went fiercely after Xu Zhen, but what infuriated him was that no matter how relentless his attacks were, Xu Zhen was like an unstoppable bug that he just couldn''t defeat. The protracted battle also caused him to gradually lose patience.


    Remembering Teng Sen''s remark, his eyes hardened, brewing a cold and merciless light.


    "If that''s the case, I''ll finish you off completely!"


    Boom!


    A burst of red light erupted from his body.


    He was indeed determined to give up the great competition, to use the forbidden technique, just to defeat Xu Zhen.


    "Forbidden technique!" Everyone''s faces changed: "He''s being too decisive!"


    "Divine Sacrifice, Bloody Light Slash!"


    His power condensed in a flash into a black, bloody blade that was several times stronger than before. With all his might and a cruel smile on his pale face, his mouth moved, as if saying, you''re as good as dead.


    "Crimson Flame Golden Pupils!"


    Xu Zhen was certainly aware of the power of Ji Xuan''s attack.


    He didn''t hesitate at all; his eyes instantly turned golden red. Staring ahead, it was as if a vortex appeared before his eyes, possessing the power to refine everything.


    "Crimson Flame Golden Pupils, a special constitution!"


    Everyone was shocked.


    Does having a special constitution actually hinder one from being in Dawu''s main team?


    "Die!"


    Ji Xuan roared. He was also feeling the pressure brought by the Crimson Flame Golden Pupils, but at this point, he had no way back and had to unleash his blood sword against his opponent.


    Xu Zhen was extremely decisive, seeming to physically intercept the sword, and there was immediately a deep gash on his body.


    But from his eyes, two rays of golden-red light shot out, striking Ji Xuan''s head squarely.


    Bang!


    The golden-red light flashed by, like a laser beam, piercing through Ji Xuan''s body.


    Ji Xuan stood frozen in place, as if time had stopped for him. He opened his mouth, and then with a bang, his head exploded like a watermelon, leaving behind a decapitated body.


    Ji Xuan was beheaded!


    Everyone was dumbfounded.


    "Five consecutive victories, Xu Zhen, you did a good job. This achievement will be included in the Academy''s assessment, and it will get you even more resources. You can withdraw now and go back to the Academy for healing." The True God of Dawu looked at the badly battered Xu Zhen, a satisfied and proud expression on his face.


    A gentle surge of mana swept across, and he turned to Teng Sen, "Do the geniuses of the Demon Abyss Dynasty want to continue the competition? We, Dawu, are happy to oblige."
