etting of "arrogance".To be honest, the leader had said before that you were a prodigy, rare in the world, and I was a bit unconvinced, thinking it might have been exaggerated. "But today, after meet...“The challengers are Jiangcheng Lin Zhengli and Zhàotiěhé of Sānshān City. Begin!”

At the referee's command, both sides began to form seals at a dizzying speed.

The only difference was that Lin Zhengli stood still, his expression calm. While Zhao Tiehe charged forward while making hand seals.

This is a collision of two completely different styles, and before the collision, no one knows the result.

The Earth element's energy gathered, and sharp stone spikes burst from the ground.

While both Yang Xingyong and Zhao Tiehe started with a stake, Yang used it for defense while Zhao used it for offense.

A wave appeared out of nowhere, lifting Lin Zhengli into the air, perfectly dodging the attack of the ground spikes.

This is the top-grade Taoist art of Ding, a school of Taoism that moves by water and qi.

Zhao Tiehe's decision was made, his hands rose, and those earth spikes sprang up from the ground, converging on Lin Zhengli in mid-air!

Unlike Yang Xinyong's previous use of brute force to launch a second attack, Zhao Tiehe's variation was entirely controlled through manipulation of the Taoist arts themselves. This truly revolutionized this school of martial art!

Lin Zhengli was airborne, the turbulent waves he'd already used seemed to have exhausted all options. But his fingers, which never stopped moving, suddenly flicked upwards. The waves carrying him became even more intense, and a new wave rose from within them, bearing Lin Zhengli away at a critical moment, escaping the spear thrusts aimed at him.

He also, demonstrated the second variation of this profound wave-cresting technique!

It can be said that the battle between Zhao Tiehe and Lin Zhengli at this time truly demonstrated the confrontation of Daoist power.

And the advanced variations of these two Dao techniques also reflect the depth of the Three Mountains City Dao Academy and the Wangjiang City Dao Academy. It should be known that the transformation of these basic Dao techniques is what truly enhances the overall strength of the Dao Academies at their core.

Lin Zhengli dodged again and again, but Zhao Tiehe's attack never stopped. With a tap of his toes, he shot upwards like an arrow.

He fought his way up, delivering an uppercut. But that fist had long been encased in layer upon layer of stone, the Stone Fist!

He almost perfectly replicated Yang Xingyong's magical techniques, responding to Lin Zhengli's earlier statement of "chickens pecking each other".

At this moment, Lin Zhengli was still in the air and had almost nowhere to dodge, but his finger twitched again.

In the midst of waves, waves were born again, propelling him away from the attack once more.

Waves crashing three times!

Just an ordinary tidal surge, a common displacement spell, yet today it displays three changes.

If the previous two-segment variation of Earth Spike pushed this technique to the limit of a high-grade Earthly Dao technique, then this current Wave Triple Stack has directly elevated it to the level of a middle-grade Heavenly Dao technique. This is a qualitative leap!

Zhao Tiehe's Overlapping Stone Fist was lost again, he didn't have time to be shocked, because Lin Zhengli's counterattack had arrived.

Relying on the trump card of the Threefold Wave, he unexpectedly dodged again and again, finally completing his Taoist technique at this moment.

All the water element energy on the stage suddenly went berserk, the water surging and churning. The tumultuous waves surged from all directions, Zhao Tiehe couldn't avoid them and was hit by a wave head-on. He was sent flying uncontrollably as if struck by a heavy punch.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

While the man was in mid-air, another wave crashed into him, sending him flying with blood from his mouth.

The waves crashed against each other, and Zhao Tiehe was beaten back and forth like a broken sandbag, making muffled sounds.

This is blatant, third-rate sorcery, a raging torrent!

Lin Zhengli's expression remained calm, devoid of the playful arrogance he had displayed before the battle. Instead, there was a sense of composure as if everything was under his control. He swiftly formed hand gestures, and at the moment the raging waves subsided, he drew out an extremely long vine whip that whistled through the air.

Zhao Tiehe was almost powerless against the onslaught, but he simply hunched his head and curled up into a ball, minimizing his attack surface as much as possible.

Please note that the input you provided was ">" which is not a valid sentence in any language. I've removed the invalid characters and kept only the closing paragraph tag "

". If you meant something else, please provide a clear and understandable sentence or phrase for translation.

As the torrent subsided, his body stretched out as well. He suddenly reached out and grasped the rattan whip.

His lips were still bleeding, his clothes tattered and torn, revealing bruised flesh everywhere. But he seemed oblivious to the pain, as if all the cultivators from Sanshan City possessed this kind of ferocity. He gripped the rattan whip tightly, about to pull Lin Zhengli closer!

But Lin Zhengli relaxed his grip, and the rattan whip suddenly whirled back, like a spirit snake gliding over Zhao Tiehe's body, binding him tightly.

As it turns out, the Taoist technique Lin Zhengli just used wasn't the middle-grade Qingteng Whip, but the high-grade Entangling Vines Technique!

He used the Bind with Vines technique but instead of using it to restrain his opponent first, he disguised it as a green vine whip, luring Zhao Tiehe to grab the whip and thus perfectly ensnaring him.

It can be said that from the start of the war to now, Zhao Tiehe's every move has fallen into the calculations. Even by extension, what he said to Zhao Tiehe before the war may not have been just a foreshadowing.

By this point, Lin Zhengli could already reap the fruits of his victory.

He calmly finished the incantation, this was truly drawing out the Green Vine Whip and lashing it fiercely at his bound opponent.

But the vines on Zhao Tiehe's body suddenly exploded, and Zhao Tiehe rolled to the ground, dodging the blow with no mercy.

At this moment, people finally noticed the blood snaking down from Zhao Tiehe's body, as well as the numerous wounds. The ground was covered with a mess of shattered stones and broken vines.

It turned out that Zhao Tiehe had covered himself with a layer of stone armor while the tempest raged. Lin Zhengli might not have noticed, or perhaps he noticed but didn't care.

Because the Stone Armor technique itself is only a defensive Dao technique and does not help in breaking free from the Binding Vines technique.

But the stone armor burst open.

Instantly, Zhao Tiehe was blown to pieces, his skin ripped apart, and the vines that had been wrapped around him exploded.

This scene was incredibly brutal, and many people couldn't bear to watch any longer. Ling He even reached out to cover Jiang An An's eyes.

And Zhao Tiehe, dragging his blood-soaked body, launched another charge at Lin Zhengli.

No one knows why he doesn't give up, no one knows why he still insists.

Isn't it just a debate

It's not the November county examination, which is important for one's future!

>

This is a yearlong battle, and all the other participating cultivators are watching from outside the arena.

Sun Xiaoman stared at the field, her eyes blinking not once.

And Lin Zhengren turned to look at her: "At this point, are you still going to fight, Miss Xiaoman People could die."

“To life or to honor, I can’t decide for him.” This tiny barefoot girl didn’t even turn her head.

"Bang!"

>

This time, Zhao Tiehe couldn't dodge the whip.

A deep whip mark appeared, flesh torn open.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But it seemed he didn't intend to dodge at all. Instead, he seized the moment when the whip lashed out and grabbed hold of its tip with one hand! With a few swift turns, he wrapped the green vine whip around himself.

He drew the whip closer to Lin Zhengli, his fists slowly condensing stones, moving much slower than before, but still bearing that same, Overturning Stone Fist.

Lin Zhengli could only let go, abandoning the whip condensed from his Taoist skill. He retreated backwards, saying as he did so: "Surrender! If you keep this up, you really will die!"

"Surrender" Zhao Tiehe looked at Lin Zhengli, a smile growing on his lips. "People from our Sanshan City can't be underestimated by you like this!"

He suddenly surged forward a few steps, his Fists of the Overlord smashing down!

Lin Zhengli leaped forward, his stone fist smashing into the ground and creating a deep crater.

“Die!” Lin Zhengli was in mid-air, his hands already flying as he muttered incantations. He didn't want to admit that fear had crept into his heart during this battle, but he was determined to use more ruthless spells, even if he lost control, even if... it resulted in killing his opponent.

When the techniques of Taoism were just beginning to take shape, he landed precisely at that moment. The timing was so perfect, he almost had to admire himself.

But, for some unknown reason and at some unspecified time, a pit appeared on the ground.

That was a pitfall Zhao Tiehe had set up long ago. Tu Xingyuan's power guided the earth, causing it to sink inward. It was an elementary spell, a low-level technique of the Dao, named "Pit."

But so just right.

Lin Zhengli stumbled, his entire posture collapsing. The magic he was about to cast dissipated. Though he twisted his body at the first moment, he managed to avoid falling to the ground.

Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But Zhao Tiehe pounced on him like a wild beast, knocking him down! He pinned him firmly to the ground.

When two people are so close, instantaneous spells lose their meaning.

That was the sound of a fist hitting a face.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"I am not a barbarian!"

Boom! Boom!

“I am... Zhuangguo Qinghe County! A cultivator from the Three Mountains City! Zhao, Tie, He!”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Zhao Tiehe punched one after another.

Lin Zhengren's eyes twitched outside the ring, as if each punch had landed on his own face.

“Yield!” he shouted.untary.This is also the reason why Jiang Wang didn't immediately turn against him.Although we're not turning our backs on each other, it's still pretty annoying.At this moment, a burly man in a tunic...
