1549 Words
The fighting didn't have to stop at where it should, and either side could take the other one's life. Wasn't this a life-and-death battle? "Well..." All examinees were astonished. The middle-aged man in charge of the third test also frowned and said, "No way!" Such thing had never happened during the entrance examination history in the decades since Jiuyang Martial Institution was established. Generally speaking, this was not allowed. Mo Sen shook his head, not minding the middle-aged man's words at all, but turned to the high platform on the other side. "The elders are here. As for whether it's allowed or not, why not ask for their opinions?" The middle-aged man tilted his head and stared at that high platform. Not only him, but all the other people turned to look at that platform, including Lin Tian. Mu Qing and Shi Dong shook their heads and were about to object to the proposal, but unexpectedly, Mo Yi started to speak first. Mo Yi said nonchalantly, "There're indeed many hardships on the road of martial cultivation. Since you've chosen this road, you should be ready to face challenges at any time. In my opinion, we may have a try. Of course, whether it'll be a life-and-death battle or not, both sides need to agree on that. Therefore, we'd better let the two of them decide that themselves." Whoa! The examinees around were shocked again. They didn't expect that the elder of the martial institution should give such an answer. However, excitement was gleaming in many people's eyes. It was not easy to see a life-and-death battle, and many examinees wanted to watch it. On the drill platform, Mo Sen stared at Lin Tian and sneered, "How about that, Lin Tian? Do you dare to take the challenge? If you don't have the guts, I'd advise you to get off the platform. Cowards are not qualified to step on the road of martial cultivation." Hearing that, all the people around looked at Lin Tian. Lin Tian gave a snort in his mind, but his expression stayed calm all the time. He said, "I'm cool with that." Lin Tian had lived two lives, and would never back down from any challenge, let alone from someone like Mo Sen. He wouldn't do such a thing. So what if it was a life-and-death battle? When he needed to fight, he fought! Mu Qing and Shi Dong were helpless on the high platform. Since Lin Tian and Mo Sen agreed, they couldn't say anything else. Besides, between the two of them, only one could stay to begin with, so it didn't matter that much whether the loser was alive or dead. Mo Yi stood up and said, "Now that it's settled, the battle begins. During the battle, no one can intervene!" Everyone stared at the drill platform Lin Tian and Mo Sen was on instantly. At this moment, even the battles on the other drill platforms stopped. The two of them were the most outstanding examinees during the entrance examination for the martial institution this time. In addition, the fighting was turned into a life-and-death battle now, so naturally, it became more appealing. On the drill platform, Mo Sen gave a grim smile and stared viciously at Lin Tian, "Bastard, you were lucky enough to have had a narrow escape last time, but you won't be that lucky this time." Lin Tian stayed cool, the long knife in his hand glinting coldly. "Enough gab." Hardly had Lin Tian finished his words than he thrust against the drill platform with his right foot, and then he dashed forward immediately. Mo Sen gave a cold snort and rushed forward with the sword. The two figures met head-to-head. The sword and the long knife kept hitting against each other, clashing together. Mo Sen wielded his sword in a fierce way. Each of his moves was deadly, making many examinees' hearts race. "Not only has this Mo Sen five-star talent, but he also is at the fourth layer of body cultivation. He's indeed powerful. Compared to him, Lin Tian has nine-star talent, but he's only at the third layer of body cultivation. The gap between them is quite huge." "That dude Lin Tian has nine-star talent. The future is still long, but why must he show off himself at this point? Now, I'm afraid he's in danger." Someone whispered. The road of martial cultivation was quite subtle. The difference between each small stage was usually considerable. Generally speaking, a martial cultivator at the fourth layer of body cultivation was able to defeat ten cultivators who were at the third layer of body cultivation at the same time. No matter in strength, speed or reaction, a martial cultivator at the fourth layer of body cultivation was far better than that of at the third layer. Many examinees shook their heads, believing that Lin Tian would lose very soon. However, before long, all the people were shocked again. Facing Mo Sen, who was at the fourth layer of body cultivation, Lin Tian actually didn't back down at all. Although Mo Sen was attacking aggressively, Lin Tian could always ward off Mo Sen's sword with the long knife in his hand. "Clash!" "Clash!" "Clash!" On the drill platform, the sword and the knife kept clashing together, sparking. Lin Tian looked calm, and seemed to have a magic touch with the long knife in his hand. Each time he swung it, he struck a heavy blow. This was the second time Lin Tian had fought with a real martial artist. However, since the third test had started, he had been watching the other examinees fighting all the time. Therefore, he got a better understanding of the fighting between martial artists, and his combat effectiveness was no worse than Mo Sen's. The sword and the long knife clashed again and again, but Lin Tian equally matched Mo Sen, and the battle was too close to call. "Enough!" Suddenly, Mo Sen called out coldly. Lin Tian's color changed a little. He felt that the sword in Mo Sen's hand became frightening because it was actually shedding a soft cyan light. "Swoosh!" In an instant, Mo Sen's sword sliced through Lin Tian's left arm. Lin Tian's clothes were cut and blood was oozing out. Mo Sen gave a cold smile and said, "So what if you have nine-star talent? So what if you shattered the illusionary scenes in half a quarter? You're as good as dead once you offend me, Mo Sen!" Mo Sen wielded his sword more aggressively. Shadows of the sword were actually left in the air whenever he brandished it. Everyone was shocked at this scene. "Is that... combat craft?" "That's right. It must be the combat craft!" Someone exclaimed. The combat crafts, were the fighting skills a martial artist utilized during battle. It could greatly improve the martial artist's fighting capacity. Sometimes, a martial artist could even go up a few small stages with the help of the strong combat craft when fighting. One of the reasons Lin Tian entered Jiuyang Martial Institution was to learn its fighting skills. At this moment, Mu Qing and Shi Dong were also shocked on the high platform not far away. "Medium combat craft of body cultivation. Setting Sun Swordsmanship!" Mu Qing said in a low voice. Mu Qing and Shi Dong looked at Mo Yi, only to see that Mo Yi was poker-faced, which made the two of them frown. "Clash!" "Clash!" "Clash!" The sword and the long knife kept clashing on the drill platform. Undoubtedly, Mo Sen, who was applying Setting Sun Swordsmanship, was powerful at this moment, while Lin Tian, at a disadvantage, got a few more cuts all over his body. "Lin Tian is doomed." "Without doubt, he's a dead man." Everybody shook his head, believing that Lin Tian was sure to lose. After all, Mo Sen was one small stage higher than Lin Tian, and now he was also applying the combat craft. Lin Tian was sure to be defeated in such a situation. On the drill platform, Mo Sen sneered, wielding his sword daringly. "Those two losers, Liu Er and Mazi, they even failed to f**k a little girl. Two good-for-nothings! If they were a little better, something interesting would have happened when you saw your younger sister being raped to death, even if you came back alive." Lin Tian's body trembled slightly. His eyes turned extremely cold all of a sudden. "It was you who asked them to do it!" Lin Tian said grimly. The long-lost anger boiled up inside Lin Tian. He thought of the scene when Lin Xi was shivering with fear, and tightened his grip on the long knife. "It was exactly me. So what?" Mo Sen sneered. "I'll kill you!" Lin Tian's voice was filled with coldness and ferocity. Suddenly, his body bent into a weird position. Lin Tian only took a step, but his whole body appeared in front of Mo Sen in the blink of an eye. Lin Tian brought his long knife down ruthlessly. "He's so fast!" Someone exclaimed. Mo Sen was shocked at the burst of speed Lin Tian suddenly had. He was too fast! At this point, it was too late for Mo Sen to ward Lin Tian off
