Dragon Martial Sword Supreme

Zhao Letian's eyebrows furrowed slightly as he looked towards the middle-aged man in the grey robe.

Being challenged was not something unusual.

But the problem was, this grey-robed middle-aged man seemed to be targeting him specifically, which was quite peculiar.

Of course, regardless, since someone had come to challenge him, he naturally would not shy away.

"Brother, be careful, this old guy seems a bit strange."

Murong Zhan beside him furrowed his brows and said.

"Hmm, don't worry."

Zhao Letian nodded and stepped directly onto the arena.

"Zhao Zilong, prepare to die!"

The next moment, before Zhao Letian could steady himself, the grey-robed middle-aged man pounced straight at him.

At the same time, the True Yuan Power within his body burst forth, his sleeves billowed, and he himself swelled up rapidly, emitting a fatally dangerous aura.

"Be careful, he's going to self-destruct!"

Seeing this scene, the audience was horrified and exclaimed in alarm, immediately retreating backwards to distance themselves from the arena in front.

The explosive force of self-destruction from someone at the peak of the True Martial Ninefold was not trivial; even those who had just stepped into the Sect Martial Realm would not dare to withstand it directly. It posed a strong threat to those below the Sect Martial Realm, and no one wanted to be caught in the blast.

"In front of me, you don't have the right to self-destruct. God Destroying Sword, die!"

Zhao Letian's face darkened, he shouted angrily, and immediately used the Divine Thought Secret Technique "God Destroying Sword". From his glabella, a Divine Thought Sword shot out suddenly, reaching with astonishing speed, piercing directly into the grey-robed middle-aged man's glabella.

"Ah!"

The next moment, the grey-robed man was shocked, let out a shrill scream, his Divine Soul was instantly extinguished, the rampaging True Essence Power in his body dissipated into nothingness, totally gone, and he slumped down powerlessly.

"Hisss!"

Witnessing this scene, the audience all inhaled sharply, their faces showing incredible shock.

In their eyes, Zhao Letian's performance was even more terrifying than Murong Zhan and Die Wu.

Because as everyone knows, clashing with the power of Divine Thought is extremely perilous. One moment of inattentiveness might damage one's own Divine Soul Power, which has an even higher risk than using Martial Soul Power.

Without absolute confidence, people would not easily use Divine Thought Power in battle.

That Zhao Letian dared to directly use a Divine Thought Secret Technique and could kill the grey-robed middle-aged man in one hit, not even giving him a chance to self-destruct, indicated that Zhao Letian's Divine Soul Power far surpassed the middle-aged man. He could easily crush martial artists of the same rank, and even battle above his level.

At the same time, upon seeing the outcome of the battle, prodigies from various nations also frowned deeply, their expressions solemn as they looked towards Zhao Letian.

Although they had long known that Zhao Letian's strength was extraordinary and not to be underestimated, this was the first time they realized that his Divine Soul Power was also so terrifying.

"Being able to instantly kill someone at the peak of True Martial Ninefold demonstrates that his Divine Soul Power is absolutely comparable to someone at the Initial Stage of Sect Martial Realm. We'll need to be extra careful when facing him in the future."

"It seems that I must strengthen my defenses in the Divine Soul aspect, otherwise, facing him, this young master is sure to be defeated."

"Before entering the Imperial Secret Realm, I must learn a Divine Soul Defense Secret Technique or purchase a Spiritual Artifact that can protect the Divine Soul Power. Otherwise, it will be too dangerous if the Divine Soul Power is suppressed by someone."

Thoughts churned in the minds of the prodigies from various nations.

"Who else?"

Zhao Letian waved his hand grandly, taking the gray-robed man's storage ring, and looked around at everyone with a cold voice.

Although the possessions of this gray-robed man were insignificant compared to Zhao Letian's, a mosquito is still meat, no matter how small. Adhering to the principle of thrift and economy, Zhao Letian naturally collected the spoils from every battle.

The crowd exchanged glances, their eyes revealing deep apprehension.

Zhao Letian's Divine Soul Power was unfathomable and terrifying. Those with insufficiently strong Divine Soul Power didn't dare to step forward.

After waiting for a moment and seeing that no one dared to challenge him, Zhao Letian stepped down on his own.

On the way back, he deliberately glanced over the geniuses from various countries.

He believed that the gray-robed man definitely didn't emerge out of nowhere; his goal wasn't to win the battle, but to assassinate him.

In other words, the gray-robed man was likely a Death Soldier, surely instructed by someone behind the scenes.

Yu Kun of Sky Dome Dynasty, Yu Wenhui and Meng Yi of Gray Wolf Kingdom, Xiao, Xiao Yan of Skyfire Country, Ye Zhenxiao of Dajin Country, Tan Qing and Zhou Bin of Thunder Swamp Country—all were suspects.

"Is it him?"

After looking around, Zhao Letian didn't see any unusual reactions on the faces of Yu Kun and other geniuses from various countries, but when he saw Xu Qian, a King-level Expert of Skyfire Country, a flash of disappointment crossed his eyes.

That meant the gray-robed man was likely arranged by Xu Qian.

After some consideration, it made sense. Geniuses like Yu Kun from various countries already had an understanding of his strength and would definitely not think that a person with ordinary talent at the peak of the ninth layer of the True Martial Realm could deal with him, so they wouldn't have sent the gray-robed man to be cannon fodder.

Only Xu Qian, who didn't understand him, would pin his hopes on the gray-robed man taking Zhao Letian down with him.

Facing Xu Qian, a King-level Expert, Zhao Letian couldn't help but feel somewhat troubled.

Because, as he knew, even if he played all his trump cards, he was still unable to contend with a King-level Expert.

Moreover, as Xu Qian expected, once the journey in the Imperial Secret Realm ended, the Floating Cloud Monarch would likely no longer care about his life or death. By then, he would probably have to face Xu Qian alone.

"Not just Xu Qian, after the journey in the Imperial Secret Realm ends, the King-level Experts from the other forces that I've offended might also directly make a move against me. I must prepare in advance."

Zhao Letian thought to himself.

As the saying goes, those who do not think far ahead will find trouble at their doorstep.

He now needed to start thinking about how to deal with the pursuit from those enemies after the journey in the Imperial Secret Realm.

Meanwhile, after the end of Zhao Letian's battle, it was a long while before anyone else stood up to challenge.

The three battles had made it crystal clear to everyone the gap between them and the geniuses of various countries. Such challenges were simply suicidal, and no one dared to stand up again.

"Is there anyone else who wishes to challenge? If not, then let us begin the third round, the battle for the flag!"

After waiting for a little while longer, the Floating Cloud Monarch scanned the crowd and spoke loudly.

"The battle for the flag?"

Upon hearing these four words, everyone's eyes lit up, showing intense anticipation.

The three previous battles, though brutal, were only one-sided slaughter and lacked entertainment value.

The upcoming battle for the flag, however, would be a true collision between True Martial Realm talents, bound to be even more fierce and exciting.

Or to be more precise, the forthcoming battle would be a peak contest that only the invincible experts of the True Martial Realm from various countries were qualified to participate in.
