Chapter 942
Chapter 942: Chapter 945: Four to Zero _1 Chapter 942: Chapter 945: Four to Zero _1 Upon hearing Bai Xue’s words, Han Xuan’s face darkened instantly.
Ever since the establishment of the Hall of Fame Challenge, there had never been a case of five consecutive victories right from the start.
The most victories the Ground Clan had ever achieved was initiating a three-streak win, but that happened billions of years ago.
That event was a topic still frequently spoken of with enthusiasm by the Ground Clan’s martial artists over the years.
After all, defeating the opponent in three consecutive matches boosted the morale and pride of the Ground Clan’s people significantly.
However, the Endless Species had accomplished a score of three-to-zero several times, but a four-to-zero victory from the start had never occurred.
Should the Ground Clan start with five consecutive defeats this time, there would no doubt be a massive humiliation.
…
Han Xuan could not accept such an outcome.
However, if Bai Xue dared to proclaim so, she must be quite confident.
Han Xuan frowned, “Your Highness, you might be overconfident.
Your challenger is strong, but so is ours.”
Bai Xue revealed a graceful and enchanting smile, “Well, let’s wait and see.”
“Dragon Slayer King, focus!
We must not lose this battle!”
Han Xuan roared at the stage below.He knew the importance of this match.
If they lost this round, the next would be a challenge from the Endless Species, who still had a high chance of winning this battle, leading to a three-battle winning streak.
If they lost another subsequent challenge, a five-battle defeat was highly probable.
Upon hearing Han Xuan’s shout, the Dragon Slayer King gestured reassuringly at him.
After getting onto the stage, he reached out his hand, and a large Slaughter Dragon Saber appeared.
The knife was as broad as a door and had a glossy, jet-black blade that made people’s hearts race.
“Those puny Endless Species, come and meet your deaths!”
The Dragon Slayer King’s voice echoed throughout the arena, and the audience from the Ground Clan finally got excited, starting a wave of cheers for the Dragon Slayer King.
A figure flickered on the stage, and the challenger from the Endless Species, a Demon Snake Clan martial artist, emerged.
The martial artist was tall and slender with no legs, and a long tail dragged behind him.
His venomous eyes shone with a terrifying light, hinting that he was no pushover.
The Dragon Slayer King laughed heartily, “How ridiculous!
My knife has slain countless dragons, and you, a mere Demon Snake martial artist, dare to challenge me.
Today will be your last day in the Hall of Fame.”
The Demon Snake Clan martial artist scoffed, “What dragons have you slaughtered?
Those creatures, no better than eels, are worthy of comparison with me?
Putting you in the Ground Clan’s tenth position must have been a carefully planned scheme of yours, assuming you could restrain me.
But let me tell you, I’ve been eagerly awaiting your arrival as well!”
“Rip!”
The martial artist’s clothes suddenly burst open, and he directly transformed into a massive black Demon Snake.
Large wings emerged from the beast’s sides, and nine heads danced in the air, casting a shadow over the entire stage like a dark cloud.
“Ah!
It’s the Nine-headed Devouring Sky Snake!”
“Now that you know, it’s too late.
Prepare to die!”
The Nine-headed Snake lunged forward, its nine heads attacked from all directions, each pulsing with different energy elements.
In an instant, they enclosed the Dragon Slayer King in the center.
Indeed, the Dragon Slayer King’s saber was exceptionally powerful.
His participation in the battle was carefully calculated.
After all, he had the strength to rank within the top fifty, and challenging the Demon Snake Clan had the highest probability of victory.
Yet, to his surprise, the Demon Snake Clan participant turned out to be the Nine-headed Snake, a mutated super Fierce Beast, which immediately put him on the defensive.
The combat between the two lasted for over ten minutes.
The Dragon Slayer King managed to sever four heads of the Nine-headed Snake, but that was his utmost limit.
Eventually, he was ruthlessly torn apart by the remaining five heads of the Snake!
Having torn the Dragon Slayer King’s corpse into pieces, the Nine-headed Snake transformed back into human form and twisted his neck.
“Hehe!
What a pity, if this were the Skyfire Battlefield, you would’ve already become my prey.”
His cold gaze shifted towards the 89th in the Hall of Fame; that would be his next target.
With the Nine-headed Snake exiting the stage, the Ground Clan’s side fell silent once again.
During the intense battle just now, countless members of the Ground Clan had been cheering enthusiastically for the Dragon Slayer King, but they hadn’t expected the fight to turn out this way.
Before the battle, countless statisticians, analysts, and theorists had evaluated various possibilities for the battle’s progression.
Allowing the Dragon Slayer King to fight in the first match was agreed upon by all.
The Dragon Slayer King had proven his strength time and again, enough to secure a place in the Hall of Fame firmly.
Furthermore, with the opponent being from the Demon Snake Clan, challenging him would have the greatest chance of winning.
Even some gambling houses had placed odds, mostly favoring the Dragon Slayer King’s victory in this match.
However, they hadn’t anticipated that the Endless Species would hide their real strength so well.
People didn’t even know that the Demon Snake Clan’s martial artist was a mutated Nine-headed Snake.
This demonstrated how long in advance the Endless Species had been laying their strategic groundwork for this challenge.
Some far-sighted individuals even sensed the conspiracy of the Endless Species, which was utterly horrifying.
The second battle was lost; the Ground Clan faced a two-battle defeat!
The Challenge incorporated a points rule, divided into two parts.
The first part involves these two hundred and twenty participants in a series of two hundred challenges, each victory in battle awards one point.
If the Ground Clan wins ten more battles, then the score would be one hundred ten against ninety, advancing into the final battle with a twenty-point advantage.
The final battle consists of the top ten participants from both sides, with the obtained points added to the previous ones.
In the end, the side with the highest total score becomes the winner of the challenge match.
There is a huge scoreboard on the site, currently displaying a striking score of two to zero.
The Ground Clan members are somewhat disheartened as the endless clan takes the initiative to challenge again next, with a high possibility of a three to zero outcome!
The challenging side does have a significant advantage after all, as the last ten in the Hall of Fame are not particularly strong and have a smaller chance of winning.
Incidents like the one where Dragon-slaying King just lost his challenge are rare.
In the third match, a martial artist from the Endless Species took the stage.
This is a King-sealing Powerhouse from the Ghost Clan, named Judgment King.
Being one of the masters of the Ghost Clan—on par with Yama and positioned above judges—hearts of the Ground Clan members chilled at his sight.
This match is essentially a foregone conclusion.
Following an analysis, Ground Clan deemed this match forfeitable.
And then, the brawny man ranked ninety-ninth in the Ground Clan stood up and took the stage from Lin Zhen’s side.
When he went on stage, Lin Zhen could even sense the air of despair coming off him.
“It’s over!
Undoubtedly defeated!”
Lin Zhen murmured in his heart, ultimately deciding to close his eyes and not watch.
As expected, the game ended in less than a minute, with Judgment King easily securing his victory.
Accompanied by the thunderous cheers of celebration from the Endless Species, the scoreboard changed once again, changing the score to three to zero!
Seeing the score, on the podium, Bai Xue glanced at Han Xuan: “Mayor Han, your Ground Clan is in danger, oh!”
Han Xuan grunted through his nose: “Not necessarily.
A three to zero score is not uncommon, but you’ve never achieved a four to zero score.
Our challengers have also undergone targeted planning.
We will definitely take this game.”
“The past circumstances are no longer pertinent today.
Open your eyes and scrutinize the reality.
The Ground Clan has declined, our era has arrived.
What plans could you make?
Only some targeted adjustments at most.
All of those plans have become obsolete.
The past glory has eventually faded, loafing around in the Hall of Fame isn’t enough anymore.
Can you believe it?
The day of the Endless Species returning to the land is coming soon!”
Listening to the cold words that came out of Bai Xue’s red lips, Han Xuan felt a sudden tighten in his heart.
Indeed, the situation between the two parties had subtly changed, and the Ground Clan no longer had any advantages to speak of.
Now he could only pin his hopes on the victory of this challenge to avoid the desperate situation of four to zero.
********
The fourth battle started.
This time, the Ground Clan initiated the challenge.
The challenger came from the Star River Giant Beast Alliance of the Ground Clan, a martial artist from the Xuanwu Clan.
A Xuanwu martial artist, naturally possessing the strongest defense ability, is adept at siege warfare.
Anyone wanting to defeat a Xuanwu martial artist wouldn’t find it an easy task.
The fighter of the Endless Species, ranked ninety-ninth, belonged to the Blood Demon Clan.
The Blood Demon Clan martial artists have unpredictable attacks, difficult to defend against.
However, people believed that his attack, not being overwhelmingly powerful, would absolutely not be able to break through the Xuanwu martial artist’s defense.
From the beginning of this fight, Xuanwu held an unbeatable position.
Yet the course of the battle greatly deviated from people’s expectations.
Instead of directly attacking the Xuanwu martial artist, the Blood Demon martial artist made use of a special talent-related secret technique.
Blood River Arrival!
With an assisting artifact and a special talent, the Blood Demon martial artist summoned a highly corrosive Blood River, trapping the Xuanwu martial artist live, creating a large Blood River vortex within a hundred meter radius.
Even the strongest Xuanwu shell couldn’t withstand such intense corrosion.
In the end, the Xuanwu martial artist was actually dissolved into a pile of white bones by the Blood River!
This was thanks to being in the Dimensional Universe.
If it was on the Skyfire Battlefield, the Xuanwu would have fallen!
No, if it were the Skyfire Battlefield, four people from the Ground Clan would have already fallen!
Accompanied by the huge cheers of the Endless Species and the changing score on the scoreboard, the striking score of four to zero constantly reminded the members of the Ground Clan that the opponent had already created history!
Up next, the eighth-ranked martial artist of the Quasi-Hall of Fame of the Endless Clan, Three-Eyes, will be challenging Lin Zhen, who ranked ninety-eighth in the Ground Clan’s Hall of Fame.
If they lose this match, the Ground Clan will set a record of disgrace!
While people initially had some confidence in Lin Zhen, seeing the water-tight arrangements of the Endless Clan, no one believed Lin Zhen could win.
Endless Species had already gone mad with excitement and unending cheers of five to zero could be heard.
