Chapter 75: Chapter 75: The Flame Sovereign Returns! How Can Mortal Flames Burn?
On the big screen.
In a sea of flames, only Lin Yi still stood calmly in place.
The flickering firelight cast Lin Yi’s shadow long across the distant Ark relics, adding to the oppressive aura.
Li Qianye closed his gaping mouth.
The shocking impact brought by two Tier Seven spells was unparalleled.
Even he couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart when he saw Lin Yi!
Necromancy Element, Fire Attribute, Wind Attribute, Ice Attribute...
He knows too much!
Yet, he’s proficient in every one!
This exam, the shock Lin Yi has brought him, is something no one else can match.
If before it was mere admiration.
Now Li Qianye sees Lin Yi in a new light!
The twists of this final battle were too dramatic and too swift.
Just a moment ago, he thought Lin Yi was done in a second.
Who knew that in the end, it was Lin Yi who turned the tables.
Li Qianye stood up, "This time it should really be over, let’s go and meet them then..."
...
On the other side of the wall from the invigilator room, the upper echelons of the educational departments of various provinces, responsible for overseeing the exams.
Their eyes were practically bulging out!
Yes, this was only the fifth round of the national exams.
Yes, both candidates had only undergone a Second Transformation.
Yes, most of them couldn’t actually best either of these two in direct combat...
Li Yuanjing was trembling with excitement!
If it weren’t improper, he’d probably be shouting out loud, declaring that this was Dongjiang’s strongest young generation!
No!
As of today, it should be the strongest young generation in all of Xia!
...
First examination venue in Dongjiang.
Qi Guoguang sat in the chair.
Watching Lin Yi on the big screen, he couldn’t stop shaking.
It’s him!
It really is him!
Everything is finally settled!
He recalled being outside Canglan City.
He was flying in the sky, and Lin Yi was outside the city gate.
That fleeting glimpse.
Everything started to make sense now.
In this era, a new star is truly about to rise into Xia’s sky, and its brilliance could outshine the blazing sun!
Inside the scenario.
Lin Yi looked at the center of the fire and smoke.
With a touch of admiration, he said, "The strength of that personal domain of yours is quite high, to withstand my Celestial Flame Dragon Breath."
This comment from Lin Yi left all observers bewildered.
The next moment, they suddenly realized, Xia Yuyan was struck by two Tier Seven spells and hadn’t been defeated on the spot!
The ice melted, Xia Yuyan’s disheveled hair clung to her neck, making her look extremely battered.
There was also a faint trace of blood at the corner of her mouth.
Clearly, the attack from Lin Yi had severely injured her vitality.
Numerous transparent shards like glass peeled off her body surface.
Then shattered and vanished.
This was a micro domain that had been covering Xia Yuyan’s body surface ever since her debut!
This protective layer allowed Xia Yuyan to withstand Lin Yi’s Tier Seven magic.
"Such keen observational skills!"
Xiao Xuanyi too, this time, offered Lin Yi his praise.
Previously, because he was an observer and the broadcast clarity of the wristband wasn’t great.
After all, he wasn’t on site.
So he had also overlooked Xia Yuyan’s protective domain.
But combining it with Xia Yuyan’s skill set now.
He quickly identified the skill.
"Domain: Negation!"
"It can repel all other objects, attacks, and even energy within the domain!"
"Can she now fully cover her body surface with this domain?"
Xiao Xuanyi gasped.
Amazed at Xia Yuyan’s perseverance and efforts!
Because he knew, this domain was too special.
Though its effect was terrifying, the cost of using it was equally exorbitant.
Due to its repellent effect.
It would even repel the domain releaser themselves!
Covering the entire body surface meant Xia Yuyan was constantly enduring immense pain.
This is the price of the "Absolute Domain!"
Xia Yuyan had never experienced such a humiliating moment before.
Intense anger had already filled her heart.
And her desire for victory had finally led her to abandon her previous pride!
She realized, Lin Yi was not a prey she could torment at will.
At this moment, the roles of hunter and prey had long been reversed.
She picked up the blue cube that she had just discarded carelessly on the ground.
Lin Yi simply watched, not hindering her.
Because this was originally the scenario item she should obtain.
By normal process, Xia Yuyan and Lu Yu were the ones who reached the wreckage zone first, obtained this item, and rightfully claimed it.
On the other hand, this thing was useless to Lin Yi.
Because skill evolution or whatever...
He was beyond it.
Xia Yuyan grasped the Ark Reactor Core Module in her right hand, instantly feeling a vast and majestic power flooding into her being.
Her recent injuries were almost completely healed in just a few breaths!
Meanwhile.
A full ten layers of transparent light film instantly condensed, perfectly covering Xia Yuyan’s body surface thereafter!
Domain: Negation, Tenfold Enhancement!
Additionally, a gray, a blue, and a red domain, centered on Xia Yuyan, began spreading outward!
Domain: Sky-Splitting!
Domain: Death Silence!
Domain: Annihilation!
At this moment, all three domains had evolved!
And they overlapped with one another!
Within this absolute domain, everything should perish!
"Die...!"
The three domains unfolded completely!
Buzz!!
A massively heavy sound of spatial rupture rang out!
Blue light flared up.
Lin Yi was struck by the space rupture, sliced vertically in half!
The flames from the Annihilation Domain melted all the ice Lin Yi had created previously!
Next, it should be Lin Yi that melts!
It seemed this battle had finally reached its conclusion!
The upheaval in the battleground left Li Qianye no time to react!
He didn’t even have time to save Lin Yi!
It’s over!
Such a young, outstanding talent was about to fall here?
However, the next second.
Everyone heard a sigh.
"I didn’t want to use it, the cooldown time is just too long."
"It’s time to end this."
This was Lin Yi’s voice.
His voice seemed somewhat different from the usual lazy and amiable tone.
Replaced by a commanding presence, one that overlooked all beings.
Li Qianye, having just stood, sat back down.
For he saw in the image, Lin Yi, who had been cut cleanly in half by the Sky-Splitting Slash, had no blood flowing from his wounds.
Instead, strands of deep blue flames emerged.
The moment these flames surfaced.
The crimson Annihilation Domain belonging to Xia Yuyan.
Collapsed immediately!
Crack!
Boom!
How could ordinary flames burn in the presence of the supreme fire?
Blaze!
Inside the council hall.
Mr. Meng, who had always been composed.
Suddenly stood up.
Then, Xiao Xuanyi realized, this true powerhouse standing at the peak of Xia’s strength, had vanished in an instant.
Inside the invigilator room.
The figure of Mr. Meng, leaning on his cane, suddenly appeared.
And then in the next moment, without Li Qianye having time to react.
The cane in Mr. Meng’s hand lightly tapped.
The next moment, the entire Spirit Crystal broadcasting device was melted into a mound of scorching residue!
Thereafter, all the replica broadcasts before everyone.
Vanished completely!
