Chapter 42: Overturning Expectations, Raging Flood Saber Technique

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhou Han walked down the arena with a relaxed expression. He went to the competition area and waited for his next opponent.

The surrounding crowd could not remain calm and started discussing.

It was obvious that they were suspicious of Zhou Han’s performance.

“What the hell? Han Li actually lost. This doesn’t make sense!”

“Yes, it’s really strange. Could Zhou Han be a hidden expert?”

“Hmph! How is that possible? I reckon it’s a scheme. Did he see that black energy just now?”

“Yes, it’s very strange. Perhaps this is the problem.”

These people clearly did not believe that Zhou Han would have such strength.

This was a guy who relied on connections. They were very angry about it.

Therefore, even though Zhou Han won, their eyes were filled with suspicion. They found all kinds of reasons to convince themselves.

It was mainly an unknown guy who suddenly entered the top ten.

Their hearts could not accept it.

“Han Li is still not good enough. He’s still inferior to the true prodigies of Blue Thunder City.”

“Very good. Let’s see how he faces this. This time, it’s the popular candidate for first place, Hong Peng, the core disciple of the Hong family.”

“I heard that his Raging Flood Saber Technique is powerful and has already reached perfection. This time, Zhou Han will definitely not be able to resist.”

“Zhou Han must lose. I bet he won’t be able to withstand three strikes.”

“Three strikes? Hehe! You think too highly of him! Hong Peng is not someone Han Li can compare to. He comes from a big family and has abundant resources. Moreover, he is specially nurtured as a core disciple.”

“Let’s not talk about it for now. There’s a good show coming.”

At this moment, everyone fell silent and held their breaths as they watched the scene in the arena.

Zhou Han and Hong Peng were already in position in the arena.

Hong Peng was burly and carried a large saber on his back. His eyes were filled with hostility.

He didn’t look like a young man at all. He looked more like a weathered uncle.

“Kid, have you heard of my Raging Flood Saber Technique? I’m not something trash like Han Li can compare to.”

Hong Peng drew his saber and slung it over his shoulder as he spoke domineeringly.

Clearly, as a prodigy of Blue Thunder City, he was arrogant enough.

He had also seen the battle between Zhou Han and Han Li just now.

He was confident that the other party would not be able to withstand his fierce saber technique.

“I’ve never heard of it. Could there be something special about it?”

Zhou Han said cooperatively with a trace of doubt on his face.

The Raging Flood Saber Technique was such a trashy name. It sounded very low class.

It was probably a lousy cultivation technique.

“Good. Now go down on your own! I’m afraid I won’t be able to keep my knife. I’m not sure what will happen then.”

Hong Peng had a cold smile on his face, looking confident that he would win. Zhou Han was not his match at all.

One had to know that he had successfully cultivated the Raging Flood Saber Technique to the third level. It could produce a saber aura and injure people invisibly.

“Oh? Are you that confident? Unfortunately, you won’t have a chance!”

Zhou Han had a relaxed smile on his face as he checked the other party’s attributes.

Zhou Han had a relaxed smile on his face as he drew his sword.

The aura on his face changed and he attacked.

“Eight Directional Heaven Splitter!”

With speed, it whistled over and headed straight for Hong Peng.

The onlookers were also shocked.

Of course, he was not shocked by Zhou Han’s aura, but by his courage.

One had to know that Hong Peng had an extremely strong body and refined saber techniques.

Rushing up to fight him now was completely courting death.

“Haha! There’s no need to watch. He actually dares to face Hong Peng head-on. Who gave him the courage?”

“How reckless. You don’t have any sense?”

“I can imagine Zhou Han’s sorry state next!”

…

At this moment, Hong Peng was smiling.

If Zhou Han had been fighting with him previously, he might have wasted some time killing the other party.

However, now that he dared to attack head-on, the consequences were obvious. He would definitely be killed instantly.

“Hmph! Fool, you’re lost!”

“Watch my move, Torrent Slash!”

“It’s over!”

Hong Peng held the knife in both hands, the veins on his forehead bulging. His face became ferocious because of the huge force.

With a loud shout, a violent saber aura instantly poured out.

It was like a torrent with powerful might.

It shocked everyone else.

Previously, they had only heard that this move was powerful and incomparably powerful.

Today, they finally saw it with their own eyes. The shock was even stronger.

At the same time, he looked at Zhou Han gloatingly. If he encountered such a tough opponent, he would definitely die.

“Boom…”

With a loud bang, Zhou Han’s sword aura collided fiercely with the other party’s saber aura.

A huge crack came from the arena, becoming dilapidated.

A huge cloud of dust blew up. It was impossible to see what was going on inside.

“Hiss… This power is too terrifying. Zhou Han is probably crippled.”

“Hehe, I feel so good.”

“Poor kid! He wouldn’t have suffered like this if he had surrendered earlier.”

At this moment, although they said that he was pitiful, they were indeed smiling happily.

However, when the dust dissipated, there was only a standing figure in the arena. The other was already lying on the ground, his fate unknown.

At first, they thought that Zhou Han was already lying on the ground.

All of them were wide-eyed and dumbfounded when they saw him standing.

What was going on?

Zhou Han was actually still standing there?

It was obvious that Zhou Han had obtained this victory.

Their faces were filled with disbelief.

The prodigy of Blue Thunder City was actually defeated by Zhou Han.

How strong was the other party?

It was unimaginable.

At this moment, there was no longer mockery in his eyes, but deep reverence.

“Damn! This is really hidden! I didn’t expect Zhou Han to be so strong.”

“I misjudged you! I want to apologize for what I said.”

“I remember that you mocked Zhou Han just now. Now you’re afraid?”

“Don’t talk nonsense. Aren’t you harming me? If Zhou Han finds out, won’t I be in trouble?!”

“The next competition is interesting. I wonder if Zhou Han will continue to win.”

In the next match, Zhou Han insta-killed his opponent.

No one could stop his sword.

One of them would fall when the sword was unsheathed.

It was completely dark.

The world of Blue Thunder City was nothing.

“It’s been eight rounds. There’s one more left. It’s too easy.”

Zhou Han looked at the two people fighting in the arena and muttered to himself in his seat.

The final victor of the competition would fight Zhou Han for first place.
