Chapter 546: Decisive Win

Zhang Jing; the tall spearman, didn’t expect his attack to rebound on him.

Because of this, he didn’t react in time and the attack landed on his chest, tearing a hole in his protective armour, and barely stopping before piercing through his heart.

"Brother..." Zhang Peng; the short spearman screamed, and rushed to his brother’s side.

"How are you?" He anxiously questioned.

"I am fine." Zhang Jing said and forced himself to stand.

"Fellow immortal, weapons are allowed but talismans aren’t." He said, looking at Shen Xu with a trace of cruelty in his eyes.

After all, he and his brother were seasoned fighters and he didn’t expect that a new team dared to so blatantly break the rules.

"I know." Shen Xu said.

"You know but you still use a talisman to rebound my attack?" Zhang Jing questioned but Shen Xu shook his head.

"The fellow immortal is mistaken." He said and quickly continued.

"The rebound was not a talisman but my partner’s technique." He said and the Zhang brothers couldn’t help but be shocked.

At this time, everyone recalled that they had seen the other member of team two peaks waving his brush, but they didn’t know what he was doing until now.

"It turns out he was the one who unleashed the rebound technique." A spectator said.

"Can an attack be rebounded without using a talisman?" A female cultivator asked in a sceptical voice.

"I have never seen it."

"I have also never seen it."

"Just now, the red-haired beauty didn’t defend himself because he knew that his partner would rebound the attack?"

"It seems so."

"The referee would have interfered if team two peaks violated the rules. Since they haven’t said anything, it means that team two peaks didn’t use a talisman to rebound the attack."

"I thought team invincible spear would definitely win this fight but I am no longer so sure."

"I disagree." Someone said and quickly continued.

"The rebound technique was effective because team invincible spear didn’t expect it. It won’t be so effective from now on."

"This fellow immortal is right." Another said and began explaining.

"The red-haired beauty was too conspicous which caused team invincible spear to ignore their other opponent. They won’t repeat the same mistake from now on."

The spectators were right.

After the fight resumed, Zhang Jing attacked Zhen Yuan while Zhang Peng stayed on Shen Xu.

Seeing this, the double retreated to Zhen Yuan’s side and forcibly dragged Zhang Jing into his and Zhang Peng’s fight.

"What is the beauty doing? Does he want to face both Zhang brothers at the same time?" A spectator asked.

"The Zhang brothers are powerful alone but they are almost unstoppable when they fight together. The beauty should have let them fight separately."

"It’s team two peak’s first time on the arena. They probably don’t know enough about team invincible spear." Someone said and the surrounding people nodded.

On the stage, Zhen Yuan swung his brush and a silver rune flew into Shen Xu’s body.

At the same time, the double felt an influx of strength and subconsciously narrowed his eyes.

However, he didn’t hesitate and jumped before unleashing a flurry of hammer attacks towards the Zhang brothers.

Seeing this, the brothers swung their spears and began parrying the hammer attacks.

However, the attacks were heavier and more violent than they expected.

Before they knew it, team invincible spear fell into advantage and hastily retreated but Shen Xu didn’t let them catch a breath.

For every step that they retreated, his hammer followed and before long, the two were covered in wounds.

[Brother.] Zhang Peng called and Zhang Jing nodded.

[Let’s do it.] The man said.

A moment later, Zhang Peng rushed in front of Zhang Jing and they aligned their spears in a straight line.

"They are going to use the heaven piercing thrust." Someone shouted.

"It’s only been a short time since the fight started. Are they really going to use their trump card?"

"Team Invincible spear is at a disadvantage. They can only use the heaven piercing thrust to turn the tide."

"I didn’t expect team two peaks to be so difficult to deal with."

"The red-haired beauty’s attacks are too powerful. They don’t seem like ordinary attacks of a heaven immortal realm cultivator."

"It’s because of his partner." Someone said and quickly continued.

"I saw him use his brush to send a silver light into the red-haired beauty’s body."

"This is the first time that I have seen this kind of fighting style."

"Few cultivators would dare to let others transfer qi skills into their body. I certainly wouldn’t dare to let anyone transfer things into my body." A female cultivator said and she was right.

Zhen Yuan was using runes to support Shen Xu’s attacks.

However, these runes not only contained his qi but also soul power.

If something went wrong or if Shen Xu rejected the runes, the qi and soul power would collapse in the double’s body, causing severe damage.

The fact that Zhen Yuan could send the runes and Shen Xu’s body could easily accept them meant that the two trusted each other deeply.

At this time, the Zhang brothers jumped and thrust their spear towards Shen Xu.

Simultaneously, their qi merged and turned into a powerful spear that flew towards the double.

Seeing this, Shen Xu didn’t defend himself.

Instead, he hammered down, just in time to hit Zhang Peng’s body as he recoiled from the heaven piercing thrust.

At the same time, a golden bell appeared around the double’s body and collided with the heaven piercing thrust.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye and different sounds echoed in the arena.

A breath later, the spear attack and the golden bell dissipated, while Zhang Peng was flung out of the arena.

After landing on the stage, Zhang Jing gripped his spear and span it a dozen times before thrusting towards Shen Xu.

At a glance, the attack looked like a horizontal hurricane.

However, Shen Xu ignored it and only attacked while trusting Zhen Yuan to handle the defense.

In the end, team invincible spear; the team that the spectators expected to win, lost miserably to a new team but thankfully, no one was seriously injured .

"The winner is Team Two Peaks." The referee announced and the arena burst into applause.
