Reverse War Surpass Immortal

Chapter 985 - 883: Martial Soul Suppression (Part 2)

They were unaware that the reason Duan Gujin deliberately spoke like that was simply because he didn't want those martial artists to know what kind of Martial Soul Power he had just released.He was currently in the Ascension Academy of the Divine World, and if he released Zhao Wuji's Giant Demon Dragon Elephant Martial Soul, he couldn't imagine how he would be treated here thereafter.

"So that's how it is!"

The martial artists present secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Some curious martial artists asked, "Brother Duan, dare I ask how many points you just earned?"

That's when Duan Gujin recalled the matter of points; he immediately used his Divine Sense to look inside the Recording Name Plate.

After a moment, he informed the others, "I just earned over two thousand points!"

Everyone present inhaled sharply upon hearing the number of points he reported, realizing instantly the vast difference between themselves and Duan Gujin.

"Oh my god! I currently only have over two hundred points! And you suddenly earned over two thousand; that's horrifying!"

Many martial artists exclaimed in surprise, deeply understanding the huge gap between themselves and Duan Gujin.

"You don't need to be afraid. At least you have points. Those martial artists who left earlier have none! Next, I'll refrain from taking action so you can deal with those Exotic Realm Creatures!"

Duan Gujin quickly comforted them, saying.

"Right, right, we still have some hope!"

The other martial artists present unanimously echoed.

"Who among you is interested in picking up those Exotic Realm Creatures' weapons? Pick them up and give them to me!"

Duan Gujin inquired.

"I'll pick them up!" Many martial artists then remembered the Exotic Realm Creatures' weapons.

Soon, those Exotic Realm Creatures' weapons were picked up by everyone.

Duan Gujin ignored the weapons of the Exotic Realm Creatures, knowing clearly that they were only suitable for Exotic Realm Creatures and that experts from the Divine World or Immortal Domain couldn't use them.

He collected the Exotic Realm Creatures' weapons gathered by other martial artists and placed them into the storage ring.

Afterward, he led the group to leave together, moving forward.

They advanced several kilometers and encountered a group of Exotic Realm Creatures.

This time, they only came across a group of ordinary Exotic Realm Creatures with average strength.

So, Duan Gujin instructed those martial artists to eliminate the group of Exotic Realm Creatures ahead.

Soon, those martial artists eliminated the group of ordinary Exotic Realm Creatures up front.

Duan Gujin had only restored less than forty percent of his Primordial Power and felt he needed to rest a bit more.

Then, they hurried forward non-stop.

Along the way, they encountered three teams of Exotic Realm Creatures with not very strong strength, and Duan Gujin instructed the martial artists around him to take action.

The group of martial artists around him was filled with excitement, knowing that Duan Gujin was giving them an opportunity to earn points.

For them, earning points was extremely important as they didn't want to face elimination from Ascension Academy.

After fifteen minutes, they encountered a group that was scattered.

The two groups merged and continued to search for other Exotic Realm Creatures.

In the subsequent three consecutive days of battle, they did not face any teams of Exotic Realm Creatures with strong strength.

Once Duan Gujin's strength recovered, he chose only to deal with strong Exotic Realm Creatures, leaving other Exotic Realm Creatures to the team members to handle.

The subsequent battles did not encounter the terror and peril of Five Elements Alien Spirits, and Duan Gujin and the other martial artists completed the task relatively easily.

When the time was up, they crushed the Teleportation Plate and returned to Ascension Academy.

Upon returning to Ascension Academy, everyone waited in front of a huge stele.

The Ascension Academy elders asked everyone to submit their Recording Name Plates and then let them look at the rankings displayed on the stele.

The stele was huge, capable of displaying up to a thousand names.

After hearing the introduction from the Ascension Academy elders, everyone realized that the stele could show rankings of up to a thousand names.

Once the identity tokens of all martial artists were registered, the stele displayed the final results.

Upon seeing the stele, Duan Gujin realized he was ranked fifth this time.

He considered this achievement quite good, as he didn't expect four martial artists in Ascension Academy to be stronger than him.

Yet, he wasn't interested in knowing the backgrounds of those four martial artists.

Mo Yan was utterly shocked upon seeing Duan Gujin's ranking.

Even though he had previously seen Duan Gujin release an extremely terrifying Martial Soul to eliminate over forty Exotic Realm Creatures in an instant, afterward, he handed the task of destroying Exotic Realm Creatures to most of his fellow disciples and didn't continue to strive hard.

Mo Yan understood that Duan Gujin's actions were simply to allow other fellow disciples to achieve a good result.

If someone were selfish, they would certainly try to gain points by any means and wouldn't consider the thoughts of fellow disciples.

Once Duan Gujin and others left, a figure appeared before the stele.

If Duan Gujin were here, he would surely recognize this figure as Gu Xiaoyue.

When they earlier faced an attack from a large group of Five Elements Alien Spirits, Gu Xiaoyue was among those fellow disciples who fled the battle.

After fleeing, she couldn't earn any points in this test.

Reflecting on the earlier encounter with the Five Elements Alien Spirits, she believed her team hadn't been wiped out, yet they would certainly be slaughtered with few survivors.

However, she just saw Duan Gujin's name ranked fifth.

"Oh my god!"

She was filled with shock and thought of a possibility with a turn of her eyes.

"It seems that, after being unable to defeat those Five Elements Alien Spirits, Duan Gujin abandoned his fellow disciples."

Yet, when she considered Duan Gujin to be as weak as herself, she unexpectedly met three former companions.

She inquired about the situation from those companions and learned from them that at the last crucial moment, Duan Gujin released a Forbidden Technique, used his powerful Martial Soul Power to suppress the Exotic Realm Creatures, and then single-handedly slaughtered all of them.

Upon hearing this news, Gu Xiaoyue initially thought the companions were joking, refusing to believe Duan Gujin could alone kill so many Exotic Realm Creatures.

Although the companions had disdain for her fleeing behavior, considering she was a woman, they didn't overly blame her. They all assured her they weren't lying, so Gu Xiaoyue finally believed them.

"Oh my god! So Duan Gujin is that powerful!"

Gu Xiaoyue was full of regret, feeling unexpected that Duan Gujin could deploy a terrifying Forbidden Technique.

Those who entered Ascension Academy knew about Forbidden Techniques — strictly forbidden to use against fellow disciples.

If Ascension Academy discovered a disciple using Forbidden Techniques against peers, they would surely be expelled.

Yet the rules of Ascension Academy didn't prohibit using Forbidden Techniques against enemies.

Thus, since Duan Gujin used the Forbidden Technique against enemies, there was no problem.

Gu Xiaoyue felt deeply frustrated, not realizing she had misjudged before.

"I completely underestimated Duan Gujin's true strength. Since he could use Forbidden Techniques, why didn't he use them from the start?"

With her test score being zero, she felt utterly frustrated.

She came to check the rankings of this Small World test to remember the names of powerful martial artists and possibly align herself with them in the future.

"It seems I misjudged earlier!"

Gu Xiaoyue lamented inwardly, but now she had no choice but to regret deeply.

Despite four martial artists being stronger than Duan Gujin on the rankings, Gu Xiaoyue didn't know them and had no idea where they were.
