Chapter 452: Is that the real Sunless Ye?
“This Field Marshal is the one none of you want to encounter—the Level Lord!”
Field Marshal Awesomo did not hide his arrogance. He loudly announced his identity and gave a rather long speech. The amount of information in his words was astonishingly ample.
It was Field Marshal Awesomo who was behind the reason why Shi Xiaobai and Speechless, who had for so baffling reason, been designated the Infernal King and Celestial King respectively?
The Hero King they thought was an imitation by the assessnt program was actually real? She was the real Hero King that had transmigrated from three thousand years ago?
And the battle of the three kings as well as the machinations set forth by Field Marshal Awesomo was a sche designed to kill the Hero King?
After an internecine outco between Shi Xiaobai and the Hero King, they were completely wiped out by the Level Lord?
A series of shocking revelations stunned the trial-takers from the human world. They naturally would not easily believe Field Marshal Awesomo’s words, but there was no way they could deny that all the information seed to lead to such a conclusion.
If the Hero King was a real existence that had crossed the rivers of ti, that would explain the feeling that she truly existed. If Field Marshal Awesomo was really the Level Lord, then as the ruler of this level, he indeed had the ability and authority to design such a sche. Furthermore, he would indeed have the strength needed to completely wipe out Shi Xiaobai and the Hero King after their internecine outco.
The disappearance of Shi Xiaobai and the Hero King also seed to prove that Field Marshal Awesomo was not lying. That was because the proud duo would not spontaneously choose to use the exit command. And since they disappeared from this world, other than being wiped out, there was apparently no better explanation.
Shi Xiaobai and the Hero King were really…really dead just like that?
Everyone felt their bodies turn cold, as though they were stuck in a snowstorm.
And at that mont, the first person to act was Sunless.
At the mont Field Marshal Awesomo finished speaking, Sunless had already unsheathed her silver sword from her scabbard and rushed straight for Field Marshal Awesomo.
The usually calm her had a rare panicked look in her eyes, but her worry and anxiety did not affect her from making the most accurate judgnt.
Whether Shi Xiaobai lived or not was already decided. No amount of panic and flustering could change it.
But if Shi Xiaobai was still alive, the fastest way to know about his situation or to save him from any danger he was in was to know the truth. The easiest and most direct way to doing so was naturally to—dig the truth out from the mastermind.
In summary, by defeating Field Marshal Awesomo as quickly as possible to force the truth out of him was what they needed to do the most.
Defeat him, even if he was the nightmare of trial-takers, the Level Lord!
Sunless’s eyes were sharp and firm, as though she had decided on where her sword would point to.
“Not a bad choice.”
Field Marshal Awesomo responded with a sneer. He clearly did not expect that the ant-like trial-takers would respond so quickly with resistance. It was unknown if he should comnd her for her courage or mock her for her recklessness.
The way Sunless ran was not like Shi Xiaobai or Dawn, who could propel themselves forward with a montary burst of speed. The way she ran was rather steady. Although there were shadows from the movent of her feet, they looked especially solid. The wind that accompanied her movent looked like pixies were surrounding her. The way she ran with her body lying low was like a charging leopard. It was a stark contrast from her usual quiet state.
Suddenly, countless dots of amber light suffused from the ground and quickly gathered onto the sword in Sunless’ hand. An amber halo enveloped the girl.
Sunless had directly activated the power of her Sword Truth. It was obvious that she was anxious to end the battle as fast as possible.
“Amber color?”
Pulp Farr widened his eyes slightly as he muttered, “Supra-advancent…Her obsession in the way of the sword is even more intense than before?”
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet were the seven colors of the rainbow. It was also the ranking of many strength-based systems. As almost all of the strength of most ‘powers’ would produce such colors, this observation was given the na ‘Law of Rainbows’ by the psionic theoreticians.
The colors of the power of Sword Truth also followed the ‘Law of Rainbows’, and the colors that were shown represented the degree of one’s obsession in the way of the sword. It also demonstrated the standard of the power of the Sword Truth. In the seven colors, red was the weakest, and violet was the strongest.
But ‘powers’ were just stars. There were naturally colors of power than surpassed the colors of the rainbow. For example, Shi Xiaobai’s golden Sword Truth was one.
Typically, other colors other than the rainbow colors were determined as powers that surpassed violet, but it was unknown how much it surpassed violet. Therefore, any colors outside of the rainbow spectrum were called ‘supra-colors’. There was no clear systemic standards for supra-colors.
The power of Sword Truth did not belong to the system of ‘strength’, but it was a system of ‘conversion’. Therefore, the color of the Sword Truth did not imply its strength, but the efficiency of the conversion. It influenced the conversion process of ntal energies to strength. If red color ant converting 10% of ntal energies to strength, then violet might an a 30% conversion process. Although it would not influence the person’s minimum or maximum strength, it was clear that a Sword Truth color of higher grade would have an absolute advantage in terms of efficiency.
However, it was very difficult to advance in the colors of Sword Truth as it was not an advancent in strength, but the enhancent of one’s obsession. It was not sothing that could be enhanced through an accumulative process or training. Typically, it was very difficult for a swordsman to enhance the colour of their Sword Truth in their lifeti.
But Sunless’ Sword Truth color had advanced. It was unknown when, but it had been enhanced to an amber color that was beyond the rainbow colors!
This did not an that Sunless’ strength had greatly increased. In fact, it did not have much of an influence. However, it allowed the conversion process of the power of Sword Truth to be even smoother and more efficient. However, it was a curious thought as to why Sunless was able to attain a supra-advancent because it ant that her obsession in Sword Truth was more than twice it was compared to before!
Pulp Farr had always treated Sunless as an opponent he was chasing after, so he had paid attention to her strength. He could not help but feel shocked, because from what he knew, Sunless, who had good feelings for Shi Xiaobai, had found sothing she liked other than swords. It was only natural that her obsession in sword techniques would decrease, but not only had her obsession with her path of the sword not decreased, but it had instead increased?
This was the reason why Pulp Farr had originally viewed Shi Xiaobai as an enemy. He always believed that the youth that caused Sunless to feel infatuated would result in his target becoming weaker.
But the outco appeared to be completely opposite.
…
As Pulp Farr was still reeling in his astonishnt, Sunless had already traversed tens of kiloters and rushed in front of Field Marshal Awesomo.
Without willing to wait any longer, she chose to directly enter a highly risky lee clash with him.
Her bright eyes were no longer as calm and torpid as they usually were. Her eyes were sharp and ferocious. They were burning with a resolute will.
Her sword was even fiercer.
The amber-colored halo shattered as the silver sword slashed out fiercely. The sword had abandoned any flashiness in its moves. The strikes were simple and direct, which made them extrely brutal.
In a real life-and-death battle, any superfluous sword techniques would end up being burdenso. It would create unnecessary lag or flaws. As such, simple and brutal sword techniques might lack beauty to them, but they were the most pragmatic sword techniques for killing.
The silver sword slashed out countless sharp sword beams, like countless red lotus blooming!
Field Marshal Awesomo’s eyes flashed a look of surprise, but his expression remained calm. He took a step forward and it was unknown when a crimson-colored battle axe appeared in his hand. He used a similarly simple and brutal manner to cleave down at the sword beams!
The crimson-colored battle axe shattered the void as web-like spatial rifts began moving forward like a sonic wave!
“Boom!”
The impact between the two forces shattered the void around them. Large cracks began to appear in the ground with Sunless and Field Marshal Awesomo being the epicenter. Dust was stirred up as they filled the sky with dust storms.
That was only the beginning to their release of power. Sunless’ next strike had already co slashing down. She only retreated a step back to withstand the blast that resulted from the clash.
That strike was as simple and brutal as before, but its ferocity was even more intense than before.
Field Marshal Awesomo did not panic as he lifted his battle axe in a composed manner to parry the strike.
However, Sunless’ figure had instantly appeared behind Field Marshal Awesomo. A sharp sword beam seed to tear the heavens asunder.
Field Marshal Awesomo pricked up his eyebrows, but he did not turn around, much less turn his head. He gave a deep growl as the skin on his back was covered with a bronze layer of light. When the sword beam struck it, other than producing a clang, it did not manage to slice open a wound.
This move was similar to Psionic Hardening, but the defensive strength was on a completely different level.
Sunless had activated the power of her Sword Truth and even chosen the most brutal sword techniques of massacring to push her strength to its maximum. Yet, it could not tear through Field Marshal Awesomo’s hide that was augnted by the bronze hardening.
But even so, her amber eyes did not seem disheartened at all.
Sunless flashed her feet once again before slashing her sword once again. No, because another strike had slashed in another direction once again almost at the sa instant.
She had realized that her strength was insufficient to crack Field Marshal Awesomo’s defenses, so she chose a strategy to quickly inhibit his defenses.
The thirty-thousand-strong audience were once again astounded. Above the vast and empty land, the azure-dressed girl was moving extrely quickly, leaving behind azure shadows in her wake. At the sa ti, quick and fierce shadow beams slashed in every direction at Field Marshal Awesomo. He was repressed to the point of not being able to move from his sport, while his bronze-colored skin flashed on every part of his body. However, he eventually could not keep up with the girl’s speed. Slowly, deep lacerations were sliced through his body!
Field Marshal Awesomo roared angrily. His strength and defenses were rather astounding, but he was helpless against Sunless’ simple, brutal and precise sword techniques!
The quiet sword fanatic was roaring with her soul!
At that mont, the azure-dressed beautiful girl was no longer that azure-colour that remained composed even in a storm. Instead, she was the surging storm itself.
“Hey, is that the real Sunless Ye?”
Speechless, who was stupefied from seeing the situation in front of him, clicked his tongue and said, “Why is it completely different from what the rumors say about her?”
