Martial Arts Overlord

The six Hall Masters moved through Aerial Flight; some standing on nine-colored mysterious lotuses, some surrounded by dazzling brilliance, and some flying astride swords, their energy piercing the heavens... Each person exuded extraordinary presence, together forming a vast atmosphere like a boundless sea, matching the momentum of hundreds of thousands of Martial Artists on Dragon Island.

Seeing these six, the previously bustling Dragon Island suddenly fell silent.

Suddenly, a streak of Yuan Qi rose up from each Hall Master, reaching the skies and linking with twenty-four smaller Yuan Spirit Veins, forming a profound and mysterious formation.

In that instant, an illusory light curtain descended from the sky, enveloping both main islands of Dragon Island. Instantly, a rumbling arose, and the entire main island trembled violently.

Aooong!

As a resounding dragon roar echoed, a massive dragon head at the peak suddenly spewed forth a huge column of water, cascading downwards and splitting into three distinct waterfalls on its descent.

The current of the first waterfall was filled with whirlpools appearing and vanishing, the vortices tearing at each other, the splashing waves slicing the air with a sharp hiss like knives;

The second waterfall appeared calm but occasionally shot up a dragon-shaped water stream, this dragon stream penetrating the air and reaching the clouds above, demonstrating its formidable power;

The third waterfall emitted a faint blue light, its watery mist forming layer upon layer of blue water curtains, resembling crystal.

Luo Feng carefully observed the three waterfalls and, unsurprisingly, this was the challenge Shui Linglong had mentioned. To ascend the Hundred Dragon Pillars, one must break through these challenges within two hours.

Swish!

Among the six Hall Masters, an elder with sharp eyes and standing on Sword Gang, shot into the air and spoke:

"This year’s competition for the Hundred Dragon Pillars consists of three challenges, namely Profound Weight Gate, Wandering Dragon Gate, and Water Screen Gate."

Shui Linglong turned back to Luo Feng and the others, saying:

"Although the content and difficulty of each year’s challenges differ, the purpose is the same—to eliminate those whose cultivation is sufficient but whose strength is insufficient. These three gates will test your overall capabilities, so no matter what happens, remain calm and do not panic. Also, while the competition lasts two hours, there are only one hundred slots on the Hundred Dragon Pillars, so the earlier you reach the peak, the better."

"Understood!" everyone responded in unison.

At this moment, the elder who was flying on the sword glanced at the rising morning sun, cleared his throat, and spoke again:

"The time has come, the New Dragon List Assembly officially begins, I hope you all can ascend the Hundred Dragon Pillars."

Wow!

"It’s finally starting!"

"Previous competitions for the Hundred Dragon Pillars had only two challenges, but this year there are three—clearly the difficulty is extraordinary. To pass all three gates and reach the peak will likely be no easy task..."

As the elder finished speaking, the entire scene erupted, many had eagerly anticipated this moment for a long time.

Swish swish swish swish...

The sound of breaking through the air continuously echoed as all the young generation atop various Golden Palace platforms, who had competed in the Dragon’s Rise, began to perform Qinggong and shoot towards the main island.

Hundreds of young talents performed Qinggong to the fullest, trailing brilliant Yuan Qi light like rainbows stretching out across the sea.

"Luo Feng, let’s see who reaches the peak first!"

A huge shadow swooped in, Yan Hu riding the Falling Star Sky-Splitting Tiger, leaped off the platform, creating waves as he headed towards the main island. Yesterday he had lost to Luo Feng in the Dragon’s Rise competition, and had been harboring a grievance; this was his chance to redeem himself.

"Let’s go too!"

Yan Feihua commanded, and immediately, the Linglong Hall disciples who had long been eager also leaped into the sea.

Luo Feng was about to set off when Yang Wanyi suddenly approached and said, "Luo Feng, I just saw the Crown Prince. He’s with Leng Feifan from Blood Flower Tower—this might not be a coincidence, be cautious."

Yesterday, Luo Feng mentioned the Blood Flower Tower to her, so Yang Wanyi had been on alert, constantly watching Leng Feifan’s movements.

"Hmm, I’ll be careful."

Luo Feng nodded; he had already noticed the Crown Prince and Leng Feifan’s group, Qin Xuan was there too. The Crown Prince’s gaze had constantly been directed this way; though the killing intent in the opponent’s eyes was well hidden, it did not escape his perception.

"Let’s go."

Without paying too much heed, Luo Feng employed Sky Cloud Step and darted towards the main island, with Yang Wanyi following behind.

On the other side.

"Leng Feifan, I leave Luo Feng to you." The Crown Prince gazed at Luo Feng’s back, speaking to Leng Feifan beside him.

A slight flicker crossed Leng Feifan’s eyes, a chill smile curled at his lips: "Rest assured, from the moment I, Leng Feifan, decided to kill him, he was already a dead man. Luo Feng will certainly not see tomorrow’s sun."

"That’s good."

The Crown Prince nodded and added, "However, be wary of him conceding willingly."

Although the New Dragon List Assembly does not specifically prohibit taking lives, if someone concedes, then no further harm can be done to them; otherwise, not only will the contestant be disqualified, but they will also face severe punishment, and the Hall Masters of the six Golden Palaces overseeing the competition will not permit such action.

"He will not get the chance to concede."

Leaving these words behind, Leng Feifan’s figure transformed into a shadow and vanished from sight.

"Luo Feng, you dared to oppose me repeatedly—today is your day of death!"

The Crown Prince clenched his fists tightly, a sinister smile on his face.

At his side, Qin Xuan glanced at the Crown Prince with slightly furrowed brows; from several days of interaction, she had witnessed the Crown Prince’s insidious narrow-mindedness, which she greatly disapproved of. Part of her reason for warning Luo Feng was because of this.

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish...

Jian Wuji and others were the first to arrive beneath the main island.

The rock face beneath the main island divided the waterfall into hundreds of channels, the water striking the sea with thunderous roars, the splashing waves towering dozens of meters high. Yet, strangely, when these waves hit the blue light curtain, they were immediately rebounded, unable to break through, appearing extremely solid.

Szz!

Jian Wuji moved without the slightest pause, his form like a sharp sword charging into one of the channels. Even before approaching the blue light curtain, the curtain split open to both sides, allowing him passage without obstruction.

Bam!

Yu Bufan chose another channel, equally undeterred in speed, crashing in, and every obstructing water curtain was shattered by him, advancing against the current.

Lu Xiao Yun, Yan Feihua, and others chose their own channels, effortlessly breaking through the water curtains and heading towards the second waterfall.

Following behind them, the contestants witnessing this scene, assumed the blue light curtain was nothing much, maintained their rapid pace and charged into the channels.

Aaah!

A contestant punched the blue water curtain, which not only did not shatter but its powerful backlash directly knocked him unconscious.

Witnessing this, others were shocked, not daring to act recklessly any longer, slowing their pace, avoiding reckless attempts.

Luo Feng noted this scene and used his Soul Power to sense the situation, immediately understanding the key.

This Water Screen Gate’s water curtains were not merely simple water; they contained intense Yuan Qi fluctuations. The defensive power must be no less than the Protective Gang Energy of an eighth-level Spiritual Rotation Realm Martial Artist. If one’s attack power is insufficient, passing through is not a simple matter.
