Crime Prison Island

Gao Xin walked onto the stage in his regular state: "Yak, you can go first."

Without a word, Yak stepped into the arena.

His face was full of fighting spirit, extremely exhilarated.

"I will definitely defeat you!"

Gao Xin smiled and once again revealed a substitute: "Who do you want to fight?"

Yak's face stiffened.

The audience was in an uproar, not playing like this even with Yak?

Gao Xin's Quasi-Dragon King power comes from him having a Throne; essentially, he's using a Dharma Body to fight others.

At this moment, with just one knife and factoring in consciousness, he can only be considered a top-level True Dragon.

Back when he defeated Sea Snake Sophia, it was all thanks to the Throne.

"Of course, all of us together, including you," Yak said solemnly.

Gao Xin calmly said, "Yak, the closest you've ever come to defeating me was during the Tiger King Conference."

"And now, you have no chance of winning against me."

"However, you might defeat all my substitutes, in which case I'll withdraw from the competition."

Yak transformed into a demon form, a giant black sky curtain swirling in the air: "Only by fighting will I know if victory or defeat is possible."

Gao Xin nodded: "Alright, since you didn't choose, let's settle this with blade and sword."

With a buzzing sound, both of them went into the tenth rank of overclocking simultaneously.

Yak stomped the air, creating friction to spark lightning, and suddenly launched forward, with dark clouds descending, and a menacing sword stance.

"Evil Fire Sky!"

"Death Granting Sword Energy!"

"Spine Annihilation Sword Bone!"

Facing Gao Xin, Yak didn't hold back, starting with a series of killer moves, continuous and unending.

He knew that as the challenger, he had to go all out from the start, unleashing explosive output all in one go.

In response, Gao Xin used exactly the same moves!

"Clang clang clang!"

"Boom!"

Evil Fire Sky against Evil Fire Sky, Spine Annihilation Sword Bone against Spine Annihilation Sword Bone.

Not only did he perfectly neutralize Yak's attacks, but his power was even greater!

Yak's arm seeped blood, and fragments of bones flew.

The sword of the spinal bone turned to dust.

Both were at the same level, with similar energy, but the power of their sword moves differed greatly.

On one hand, it was the power of the Demon Blade; on the other, Gao Xin's consciousness was stronger!

With just one exchange, Yak felt the flash of an impending crushing defeat.

"He's really... left me far behind..."

Yak murmured, with some distracting thoughts.

But soon, under immense pressure, his gaze became incomparably focused, scarlet and furious, his battle power rising to another level.

Combat Divinity, the more he fought, the stronger he became.

In an instant, he grew two bone blades, dual-wielding and charging forward, striking with twin swords.

However, Gao Xin was equally focused, spinning the Demon Blade, using just the Spine Annihilation Sword Bone to resolve Yak's explosive assaults one by one, and even counterattack.

"Although I don't understand, I can see that Yak is being completely suppressed."

"Even at the point of outbreak, Tai Sui can synchronize and keep up, always stronger than him."

"Yak's strength lies merely in his impressive combat consciousness, and his miraculous use of various modules."

"But Tai Sui is the same, and even a step higher."

"Using the enemy's own methods against them, the head-to-head battle blows up."

The gap was obvious to onlookers outside the battle.

Even the weaker spectators could tell easily, because Gao Xin was using the same moves!

From start to finish, whatever Yak used, he used it too.

The same sword moves, the same tactics, the same level, yet he was simply stronger than Yak!

This kind of 'defeating you with what you take pride in' made the comparison extraordinarily clear, everyone could see the difference between the two.

"Your consciousness is above mine," Yak murmured.

Gao Xin said in a deep voice, "You're right. I know you better than you know yourself."

"But that's not the most important thing. The lower the consciousness gap, the less noticeable the effect; your divinity ensures that I won't have a chance to decisively win."

"So even if I'm slightly above you in consciousness, it only puts me in an invincible position, but what truly secures victory is the Demon Blade."

"The Demon Blade..." Yak's gaze fixated on the Demon Blade.

Indeed, the Demon Blade allows Gao Xin's raw strength to overwhelmingly outclass Yak by a significant margin.

As the on-site environment became increasingly high-energy, the might of the Demon Blade became even more prominent.

On one hand, it utilizes energy absorption effects for defense, breaking Yak's moves.

On the other hand, it can also leverage the environment to unleash stronger super boundary boosts.

Yak's Spine Annihilation Sword Bone was only thirty times the super boundary, whereas Gao Xin's use of the Demon Blade Spine Annihilation Sword Bone was sixty times.

Gao Xin said earnestly, "Relying on consciousness to defeat the strong with the weak is something I often did, and even rode it all the way to a comeback until today."

"But... this was out of necessity!"

"It's because I was weak, because I was poor, because I had no other means to surpass the enemy."

"Don't idolize miracles born out of frailty. If I was already stronger than others, why insist on defeating the strong with the weak?"

"So I kept learning new things, constantly upgrading new equipment, continuously mastering more trump cards..."

"There are countless factors that influence victory, and you rely too much on consciousness."

"When your opponent's skill surpasses yours, you won't have a means to break the impasse."

"Don't get things backward, Yak."

Yak murmured, "No matter how strong external objects become, I can do it too. My body is the strongest weapon."

Gao Xin laughed: "That's why you're a God of Battle, not... a God of Victory!"

These words were like a tolling bell, shaking Yak to his core.

Gao Xin continued, "You say you have to win, but in reality, you just enjoy freely showcasing your combat abilities."

"You revel in the joy of battle, which is completely understandable."

"But with that, you'll have to accept that... you can never defeat me!"

Gao Xin's Demon Blade slashed violently, crescent Sword Light soaring.

Casually, with sixty times the Spine Annihilation Sword Bone, he wildly slashed Yak, overcoming skill with sheer force, not to mention paired with Divinity and Dark Logic Blade Technique, in an instant, Yak's head was chopped off!

Sparks of insight flashed through Yak's mind, yet he was still manipulated by Gao Xin at every turn.

Combat Divinity was striving to make him win, but alas, a clever woman cannot cook without rice, Yak had nothing left!

The power of the Great Saint Spirit had to abide by the laws of physics in reality.

It cannot go beyond material fundamentals.

Consciousness is not omnipotent; it only makes the most correct choices when victory is possible.

Gao Xin understands his strengths better than Yak does, and he also knows his weaknesses better, with harder capabilities still stronger than him—not knowing how to lose!

The only way to lose is for Yak to defeat all his substitutes, leading to his withdrawal.

But Yak wouldn't choose this, so Gao Xin said, 'You have no chance of winning,' not out of arrogance, but stating a fact.

"Ahhhhh!"

Yak's head transforms, cells renew, and he undergoes dragon transformation in an instant!

Don't underestimate him just because he's a Flying Head Monster—a development of a thousand tons previously, and now even just the head weighs over seventy tons.

He abandons his enormous physique, reverse develops, simultaneously repairing at high speed, soon becoming whole.

A seventy-ton Hidden Dragon stands firm on the spot.

Yak's eyes turn crimson: "Scarlet Reverse Moon Slash!"

After transforming into a dragon, he reshapes his Demon Wingspan exoskeleton, outlines the Golden Battle Body, presenting an ultimate color on the original dark red base.

A brand new Divine Level Technique burst forth instantly, the Bone Sword resonated with Gao Xin's Demon Blade Slash, reflecting that crescent sword light back.

"Oh?"

Gao Xin didn't expect this surprise; it was indeed beyond his anticipation.

However, due to the breakthrough, Yak disqualified.

The Angel Envoy announced Tai Sui's victory.

Gao Xin loudly said, "The winner has been decided, but please allow me to continue the match as an exhibition outside the competition."

The Angel Envoys remained silent; since Themis intervened in the last Tiger King Conference, this has happened before, providing them with a venue to finish the battle without affecting the outcome, so they tacitly agreed.

"What excellent combat talent, you are the true master of this divinity."

Gao Xin became excited. Until now, his divinity, except for Flying Star, hadn't created any new moves.

This is because his core consciousness is Dark Logic and hasn't become belligerent or filled with a certain martial spirit despite connecting with Combat Divinity.

He remains as he is, so the fit is not as good as Yak's.

In simple terms, the Combat Divinity is just an auxiliary device for Gao Xin, but it's everything to Yak!

At this moment, a dragon and an elephant battle fiercely again, finally reaching a draw.

"Slash, slash, slash!" Yak fought madly, completely entranced in the divine combat state.

"Good, good, good!" Gao Xin was delighted, truly stunning and extraordinary.

He also burst forth in consciousness, relying on the girl brother's abstract learning for this brand new Divine Level Technique.

Yak transformed into a dragon, his power surged, and also created the Scarlet Reverse Moon Slash.

Previously, the enhancement was through inducing environmental energy, while the boost of this move directly resonates and reflects the opponent's slashes.

Almost no preparation time, instantly reaching super boundary effects.

Of course, there is still a limit—it's the highest fifty-fold super boundary Divine Level Technique.

Gao Xin relied on the Demon Blade's sixty-fold effect, still not inferior, yet indeed with little difference, resulting in a back-and-forth match.

The site had two mad warriors battling, all skill, all consciousness.

The silhouettes colliding in streams of light no one noticed, as if they merged into a single entity.

It feels like one person performing martial arts, indistinguishable from who is who.

Many Dragon Level observers suddenly stood up, watching in fascination and disbelief.

"So terrifying, I only understand a fraction, yet it feels explosive with insight!"

"Yak's dragon transformation shows peak True Dragon power, truly defying heavens."

"Tai Sui defies heavens even more; he's still at Elephant Level, yet vaguely stronger than Yak!"

"No, my head hurts! Phew!"

Someone suddenly vomited blood while watching.

Their quick reaction allowed them to keep up with the fierce duel between the dragon and the elephant, seeing it clearly.

But just because of that, the brain storm became extremely painful instead, surprisingly causing physiological reactions, and reverse bursting of vital energy.

"Phew, phew, phew..."

Bystanding and watching, numerous former Quasi-Elephant Kings and newly promoted Hidden Dragons got injured just by spectating.

This scene dumbfounded the live comments, surprisingly, they had nothing.

Only seeing those two whirlwind of sword and blade intertwining, ultimately becoming a single force like two tornadoes combining, forming a grander Sword Array Storm, profoundly mystical.

Are they cooperating, or are they dueling?

Quasi-Dragon Kings, though not vomiting blood, also felt uncomfortable, only Caesar and Quinn remained focused seriously.

Among them, Quinn sweated more, already activating Prophet mode, yet still couldn't match the rhythm...

"Scarlet Reverse Moon Slash!"

Suddenly the storm vanished, Gao Xin and Yak faced each other with full power.

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

First, Yak reflected back Gao Xin's slash, fifty-fold super boundary power.

And this time Gao Xin unexpectedly executed the same move.

The Demon Blade slashed too, also Scarlet Reverse Moon Slash, and even reflected Yak's Reverse Moon Slash back!

Hundredfold super boundary burst!

"Boom!"

Yak was shattered, flying like scarlet fragments, hitting the barrier at the arena's edge, triggering continuous shockwave ripples.

The Angel Envoys reinforced the barriers again, only to see Yak still hadn't died, a mass of flesh flying again.

Cells renew, transform in mid-air, advancing to Sub-dragon.

"Damn!" The live comments were amazed.

Quasi-Dragon Kings all stunned, what? Two consecutive breakthroughs during a match?

What the hell? Are you risking your life?

The Angel Envoys were surprised too, evidently this situation broke their prediction.

Consecutive breakthroughs signify an ultimate sublimation of belief; regardless of what happens, he must survive.

But it's a match, wouldn't die, don't mind those Quasi-Elephant Kings one by one breakthroughs; theirs are just due to long cultivation and nearing death stimuli.

Yet it's impossible to have consecutive breakthroughs in a competition.

But Yak did, he already forgot this is a match, entering the state of selflessness.

Treating fighting as life's meaning, Gao Xin's crushing this time pushed out all his divinity.

He's never been crushed by strong ones, all were numerical crushes, with the opponent's consciousness filled with errors in his view.

But Gao Xin is different, consciousness crushing him too, full suppression, making Yak unable to find a glimpse of victory.

So it's Yak's first time entering this state, at this moment, his mind was void of any chaos, many things seemed forgotten.

Shyness heart shattered, societal fear's external info all disappeared, everything silent.

He's like being in an utterly empty world, the entire universe only includes two people, one is him, the other is Gao Xin.

Heart left only war, war, war! Battle, battle, battle!

Fight to the death!
