Chapter 3468: The Third Round of the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses Comes to an End

“It’s half and half,” Duan Ling Tian replied to Ling Jue Yun.

Ling Jue Yun was bewildered by Duan Ling Tian’s reply. “Half and half?”

“I only learned to create my own s.p.a.ce Sword Dao by studying the basics of my master’s Destructive Sword Dao. It’d be impossible for me to create my own Sword Dao if my master didn’t teach me his Destructive Sword Dao…” Duan Ling Tian replied truthfully.

“Your master is quite amazing… A person who’s able to create his own Dao in the Devata Realms, and even in the Realms of G.o.ds, is as rare as a phoenix’s feather… As long as he doesn’t die prematurely, he’s definitely become a supreme powerhouse. Moreover, only half of the supreme powerhouses are like your master…” Ling Jue Yun said as he turned to look at Feng Qing Yang who was seated next to Ding Fu, the Heavenly Emperor of the Primeval Heaven, with a hint of admiration. At the same, a hint of relief could be seen in his eyes when he heard Duan Ling Tian did not learn to create his own Dao without any help.

In the Devata Realms, perhaps, no one knew the G.o.ds and supreme powerhouses more than Ling Jue Yun did. After all, he was born and raised in the Divine Offering Land, a Realm of G.o.ds. He only came to the Devata Realms to seek refuge.

Ling Jue Yun continued to say, “If your master manages to persevere to the end, his future will be incomparably bright…”

“I think so too.” Upon hearing Ling Jue Yun’s words, Duan Ling Tian glanced at his master, Feng Qing Yang.

When Duan Ling Tian first ran into Feng Qing Yang’s legacy, the Sovereign Heart Sword, in the mundane realm, he had been thoroughly shocked by its superiority in comparison to other techniques in the mundane realm. It was comparable to celestial methods in the Devata Realms. His journey in the mundane realm had been rather smooth thanks to the Sovereign Heart Sword; he could defeat most of his opponents easily except for those with a significantly higher cultivation than his. He was undoubtedly unrivaled among his peers and even those whose cultivation bases were a few levels higher than his. All this was thanks to the Sovereign Heart Sword. Although cultivating in the Heavenly Palace of the Solitary Destruction’s Sword Mark Canyon for 100 years helped, it was mostly thanks to the foundation he built with the Sovereign Heart Sword that he was able to create the s.p.a.ce Sword Dao.

The Sovereign Heart Sword was invented by Feng Qing Yang, hence, even the Destructive Sword Dao was created using the fundamentals of the Sovereign Heart Sword. For this reason, after Duan Ling Tian familiarized himself with the Sovereign Heart Sword again, his progress of comprehending the Destructive Sword Dao was swift.

With the Supreme Powerhouse Divinity that a supreme powerhouse left behind, Duan Ling Tian was also able to comprehend the law of s.p.a.ce smoothly. Combined with the Destructive Sword Dao, he was able to create the s.p.a.ce Sword Dao. That was why he was now able to incorporate many profundities from the law of s.p.a.ce into his sword technique, significantly improving the force of his attacks.

“I thought you’d be slightly weaker than me. After watching your performance, I’m even more motivated now…” Ling Jue Yun said. His fighting spirit soared as he looked at Duan Ling Tian. He was not jealous of Duan Ling Tian’s creation of the s.p.a.ce Sword Dao. He only grew more motivated and determined to improve himself as well.

Duan Ling Tian’s eyes brightened as well when he sensed Ling Jue Yun’s confidence and determination. “Your strength has improved greatly over the years as well. We should have a sparring session soon…”

“Alright,” Ling Jue Yun said as a rare smile appeared on his face.

Meanwhile, Tang San Pao, who was usually a chatterbox, remained strangely silent as he stared at Duan Ling Tian’s back. His fighting spirit burned in his eyes after he witnessed Duan Ling Tian’s performance.

At this time, the voice of Xu Kong Hai, the Vice Temple Master of the main t.i.tle Temple who was also in charge of the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses this time around, suddenly rang in Duan Ling Tian’s ears.

“Duan Ling Tian, if you’re willing to share Feng Qing Yang’s Destructive Sword Dao with the t.i.tle Temple, the t.i.tle Temple will spare no efforts in giving you the best resources to cultivate. With that, your future is guaranteed to be incomparably bright!”

Xu Kong Hai continued to say through Voice Transmission, “Apart from that, I can also guarantee that you’ll be given access to the t.i.tle Temple’s secret room where only Vice Temple Masters or those with similar or higher positions are able to access…”

Duan Ling Tian was taken aback when he heard Xu Kong Hai’s sudden proposal, but he was not tempted by it. His expression darkened slightly as he replied through Voice Transmission, “Vice Temple Master Xu, I hope you won’t bring this matter up again after this. I, Duan Ling Tian, will never reveal the Destructive Sword Dao my master taught me even if it means losing my life.”

The Destructive Sword Dao was Feng Qing Yang’s precious fruit of labor after many trials and errors. It was created with much difficulty and contained his master’s blood, sweat, and tears. Although it was likely that most people would not be able to comprehend the Destructive Sword Dao even if Duan Ling Tian were to reveal it, Duan Ling Tian still had no intention of revealing it to outsiders.

“Feng Qing Yang truly found himself a good disciple,” Xu Kong Hai said with a sigh through Voice Transmission, “The t.i.tle Temple naturally won’t force you if you’re unwilling”

Following that, Xu Kong Hai s.h.i.+fted his gaze to the other young geniuses who were battling in the battle ring.

After half an hour…

Zhang Tian You, who was sitting behind Duan Ling Tian, was challenged by a One Star G.o.d of War. His opponent was rather good, and the duel ended in a draw. Although the duel ended in a draw, he was not eliminated.

Alas, Zhang Tian You had revealed all of his strength during his first challenge so the other partic.i.p.ants managed to grasp the extent of his strength. Therefore, after an hour, he was defeated by his second challenger. Although his name had dropped in the ranking, he was still in the running to advance to the next round.

After Zhang Tian You lost his second challenge, more and more partic.i.p.ants with strength comparable to Two Star G.o.ds of War began to appear.

It did not take long before someone with the strength of a Two Star G.o.d of War challenged Su Li to a duel. However, Su Li’s opponent was no match for him. With just a strike of his sword, he defeated his opponent.

“Su Li is at least a Three Star G.o.d of War!”

Although Su Li’s opponent was just an ordinary Two Star G.o.d of War, many people could tell even a top Two Star G.o.d of War would not be capable of dominating his opponent so thoroughly.

“Su Li, you’re amazing!” Tang San Pao said happily as he gave Su Li a thumbs-up. His expression turned crestfallen as he said, “Why isn’t anyone challenging me? Do they think I’m a pushover?”

Upon hearing these words, Su Li said with a smile, “Up until now, you and Ling Jue Yun have yet to be challenged. No one dares to challenge Ling Jue Yun because they’ve seen what he’s capable of. It should be easy for him to advance to the fourth round. Those who are confident of challenging him won’t make an appearance now. They’ll likely challenge him toward the end of the third round. Those who are capable of challenging him are likely among those who pa.s.sed the third round, and they’re likely to have strength comparable to a Three Star G.o.d of War at least. As for you, the t.i.tle Temple has a.s.sessed that you’re likely stronger than a Two Star G.o.d of War. It’s only natural that not many people dare to challenge you. If you ask me, those who challenge you likely only want to test your strength. Moreover, your challenger will likely be strong as well.”

Tang San Pao’s origin was a mystery. Even the description about him by the t.i.tle Temple was very brief. All that was said was that he was stronger than a Two Star G.o.d of War. This naturally made the other partic.i.p.ants wary of him.

“Well, they should challenge me quickly! They’ve already challenged you and Duan Ling Tian; what else are they waiting for? It’s too boring to just watch others duel!” Tang San Pao said.

Alas, even after a long time had pa.s.sed, no one stepped forward to challenge Tang San Pao.

The third round of the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses continued on for more than 10 days.

During this time, some of the young geniuses who were eliminated during the previous round managed to make a comeback and entered the list of 300 partic.i.p.ants who would be advancing to the fourth round. Needless to say, there were also those who managed to make it in the previous round who failed to make the list of 300 who would be advancing to the fourth round.

After Duan Ling Tian and Su Li were challenged during the first day of the third round, no one else had dared to challenge them after witnessing their performance. No one stepped forward to challenge Ling Jue Yun and Tang San Pao as well.

Zhang Tian You managed to defeat his third challenger but was ultimately kicked off the list of 300 partic.i.p.ants who would be advancing to the fourth round. The same goes for w.a.n.g Ting.

Since the third round tested the individual strength of the partic.i.p.ants, those who managed to advance to the fourth round were those who were rather strong. In the end, among the 300 partic.i.p.ants who would advance to the fourth room, only a small number had strength comparable to a top One Star G.o.d of War; these people were also the weakest among the 300 partic.i.p.ants.

w.a.n.g Ting said with a sigh to Duan Ling Tian, Su Li, Ling Jue Yun, and Tang San Pao, “Now that we’ve been eliminated, I hope all of you will go far in the Battle of the Geniuses…”

All of them had gotten quite close during the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses.

Zhang Tian You looked at a burly young man who had just left his seat and said with a chuckle, “Heavenly Emperor Xuanyuan’s fourth true disciple didn’t make it to the next round. I wonder where he got his courage to challenge Duan Ling Tian previously.”

Based on Zhang Tian You’s words, it seemed like he had forgotten he was similar to Tong Tu, Gongsun Xuanyuan’s fourth true disciple, before the start of the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses. At that time, he had underestimated Duan Ling Tian as well and had told w.a.n.g Ting that he wanted to challenge Duan Ling Tian to a duel.
