Chapter 799: Absolute Disadvantage

"Don't waste words on him." Tu Tian casually flicked his hand, and the long staff behind him spun and shot skyward. He fixed his gaze on Chen Ling and said coldly, "He's just a Tier 4... just kill him."

The next moment, he stepped forward!

Like an arrow shot from a bowstring, he streaked through the air, leaving a momentary afterimage, and reappeared instantly before Chen Ling, a slender hand clenched into a fist, striking towards Chen Ling's face.

Chen Ling was about to meet the blow with his own punch, but his eyes sharply caught that as Tu Tian's fist swung out, the surrounding space seemed to slightly distort. He then dodged to the side with lightning speed.

Tu Tian's fist struck empty air, as if hitting an invisible wall. The space rippled, and a fine web of cracks instantly spread in the air. After a half-second pause, half the street block directly in front of him disintegrated into fine dust, and an earth-shattering roar echoed across the land!

Boom—!!!

"What terrifying power." Dressed in a blood-red trench coat, Chen Ling arced through the air like a butterfly, finally landing lightly on a building, his expression profoundly solemn.

If Chen Ling had reacted even a split second slower, half of his body, along with the street behind him, would likely have been pulverized. Even with his blood-red attire offering protection and power enhancement, he was not qualified to face this person in a direct power confrontation.

In terms of destructive power alone, the Path of the God of Strength was undoubtedly superior to the Path of the God of War.

As Chen Ling steadied himself, an immense pressure descended from above. A long staff flew into the night sky, then began to plummet rapidly, tearing through the air like a meteor, wreathed in flames, like a banner eclipsing the heavens!

This falling banner, like divine might descending from the sky, pressed down on the surrounding buildings, making them tremble.

Plumes of dust drifted down from the floorboards, and the old streetlights on either side of the road twisted and deformed, as if flattened by an invisible hand, collapsing into heaps on the ground.

At the same time, Chen Ling's bones felt on the verge of shattering, making it impossible for him to move even an inch. In his eyes, the burning, magnificent banner hurtled towards his face like a death-bringing meteor!

"Is this the oppressive force of a Tier 5...?"

Chen Ling dared not relax even a bit; he immediately reached out and gripped his weapon's hilt!

A domain instantly unfolded!

Not far from the battlefield.

"The Qiankun Twins of the Dragon Slayers, huh..." Referee No. 6, clad in a fluorescent robe, clicked his tongue. "As expected, an S-class anomaly was provoked into action in the end, and two of them at once."

He watched as the light of judgment sliced through the sky. Chen Ling tore through a corner of Tu Tian's banner and, instead of retreating, advanced directly, engaging Tu Tian in a fierce battle.

Chen Ling dared not directly withstand Tu Tian's attacks, and Tu Tian was also deliberately evading judgment. Even a Tier 5 expert wouldn't dare act rashly when facing the Path of the God of War's primary single-target lethal technique.

Furthermore, Chen Ling possessed Cloud Steps, making his movements faster than Tu Tian's. For a time, the two found themselves in a stalemate.

Referee No. 6 nodded slightly:

"This Lin Yan indeed possesses some strength, managing to exchange blows with Tu Tian as a Tier 4."

"Unfortunately... Tu Tian's true strength is far greater than this."

"And he's not the only enemy of this caliber..."

As Chen Ling and Tu Tian fought, Fu Di, who was carrying a rake on his back, seemed to grow impatient. He gripped the rake with a reverse hand, stomped his foot on the ground, and charged rapidly towards the battlefield!

"Don't waste time with this guy," Fu Di said gravely. "Otherwise, if other troublesome individuals hear the commotion and come, we'll be at a disadvantage. Let's finish him together!"

With another Tier 5 joining the battle, Chen Ling's situation instantly took a drastic turn for the worse!

The rake swept across the ground, and the earth beneath Chen Ling's feet seemed to come alive, swallowing half of his body whole. Before he could struggle, Tu Tian charged forward like a tidal wave, and the burning banner swept across with a roar!

Bang—!!

Most of Chen Ling's bones shattered, and he was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string. After hurtling for nearly a hundred meters, he crashed into an abandoned building!

Seeing this, Referee No. 6 in the distance muttered, "It seems he'll be the next one I collect the body of."

Clouds of dust dispersed.

Bloodied, Chen Ling lay in the rubble, coughing violently.

After all, Chen Ling was only Tier 4. It was already remarkable for him to hold his own against a Tier 5 alone, let alone face the combined might of two of the Path of the God of Strength's top young geniuses.

Moreover, the referee was constantly observing from the sidelines, and everything that happened during the battle would likely be reported to the higher-ups of the Five Great Realms. For this reason, Chen Ling dared not recklessly use abilities like "Heavenly Manipulation" or "Reformation." If any of those high-ranking individuals had knowledge of the Red King or the Boundless Monarch, things would become problematic.

Currently, Chen Ling was dancing with shackles on; naturally, he was no match for the Qiankun Twins.

"Do I still have to find an opportunity to escape...?"

Chen Ling wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and began searching for the most probable escape route. His peripheral vision caught sight of a conspicuous fluorescent robe in the distance, overlooking him, as if waiting for him to breathe his last.

In that instant, a thought surged into Chen Ling's mind!

No...

Putting aside the probability of escape in front of the Qiankun Twins, even if he managed to flee this time, the audience's expectation level would remain stagnant. At the current rate, he likely wouldn't reach 70 within 48 hours...

And when the final Heavenly Star Position appeared, he would still inevitably encounter the Qiankun Twins. At that point, he would still be no match, ultimately facing a regrettable death...

This was not the script Chen Ling wanted.

He needed an opportunity—an opportunity to turn everything around, to rapidly accumulate audience expectation, to avoid dancing with shackles, to eliminate his adversaries, and ultimately to reach the Heavenly Star Position!

Chen Ling watched the Qiankun Twins approach through the swirling dust, like demonic gods, a sharp glint in his eyes.

"Then... I'll take a gamble!"

"How far this act can go depends on this very moment!"

Dragging his heavily injured body, Chen Ling rose from the rubble. Clenching the hilt of his boning knife, he astonishingly charged directly towards the Qiankun Twins!!

"Huh?" Fu Di had expected that after their combined assault, Chen Ling would most likely be on the verge of death, and even if he could still move, he wouldn't dare to fight them, instead attempting to escape as quickly as possible...

But he never imagined that Chen Ling would choose to actively attack.

"Commendable courage," Tu Tian said, grasping the banner with one hand, a flicker of murderous intent in his eyes. "Unfortunately... you have no chance of winning."

The next moment, he charged towards Chen Ling like an unstoppable god of war!

Inside the abandoned building, two figures rapidly closed in!
