Divine King of Honour-Chapter 530: Xu Nian Takes Action (Make-up for the 11th Update)
Nearly a thousand people participated in the election, and after two rounds of assessment,
only Hua Gesang and Lianna were left.
You can imagine how difficult such an assessment must be.
Hua Gesang and Lianna were both seated on the platform, gasping for air.
The pressure they had just endured left them both completely exhausted.
The crowd below all looked up at the two young girls on the stage.
They all knew that the new Holy Daughter would be born from these two.
"Hua Gesang, I didn't expect you to last until the end, but I want to tell you that in the end, you will still lose," Lianna said with a cold laugh to Hua Gesang.
"Hmph, Lianna, don't get too happy too soon, don't think you're the only one who has broken through the Battle General Realm," Hua Gesang retorted with a cold snort.
Having said that, she got up from the ground.
Lianna also stood up at this moment, looking at Hua Gesang with eyes full of intense jealousy.
Had Hua Gesang also made a breakthrough?
How she managed to break through the Battle General Realm, Lianna knew all too well.
She had originally thought she could take this opportunity to suppress Hua Gesang, but she had not expected that Hua Gesang would also have a breakthrough.
"Hmph, even if you have broken through, what of it? You are still no match for me, prepare to die," Lianna said with a cold huff.
She then lunged directly at Hua Gesang.
A flash of anger crossed Hua Gesang's eyes as she mobilized her Spiritual Energy to meet the onslaught.
The audience below were all astounded.
The Pharaohs hadn't even announced the start of the third round of assessments, and these two were already fighting.
The Pharaohs were also surprised and wanted to step forward to separate the two,
but they were stopped by the Pope.
Seeing this, the Pharaohs no longer intervened, allowing the two to fight.
Xu Nian, however, was staring intently at the fight unfolding ahead.
A bad premonition surged in his heart.
He knew that everything was just beginning.
This grand event was going to be much more complicated than he had imagined.
After all, he could not have been mistaken about the aura he had felt from Lianna before.
"Clang clang clang!"
On the platform, the fight between Hua Gesang and Lianna had reached an intense stage.
The two kept swinging their curved sabers at each other.
It had to be said, the fight between the two beauties was indeed a sight to behold.
The audience below cheered them on,
thrilled by the spectacle of the fight.
As the fight continued,
Lianna began to gradually fall behind, getting pressed by Hua Gesang.
Hua Gesang was puzzled.
In her opinion, Lianna had broken through the Battle General Realm two months ago, while she herself had only just broken through a few days ago.
Lianna's strength should be above hers, so why was she being dominated?
Lianna was filled with an intense unwillingness.
Indeed, her Cultivation had been forcibly enhanced through certain means.
If it came to the stability of Cultivation, hers was naturally far less effective than Hua Gesang's natural breakthrough.
Although she had been working hard to eliminate the drawbacks of a forced breakthrough,
she had not yet completely succeeded.
Seeing herself about to be defeated, Lianna's eyes flashed with ruthlessness.
"Hua Gesang, don't blame me. Who told you to compete with me for everything?," Lianna's eyes suddenly erupted with fury.
Then an overwhelmingly powerful Light Power burst forth from her body.

This aura was so strong that even warriors at the Peak of Battle General couldn't compare.
At that moment, Lianna swung her Battle Saber, the Sword Light incredibly fierce.
With one slash, it was impossible for Hua Gesang to resist.
Xu Nian's eyes also became sharp in an instant.
He glanced in the direction of the Pope; these people were actually indifferent.
This made him even more annoyed.
Clearly, in their view, Lianna was not breaking the rules.
Moreover, the power erupting from Lianna at this moment was the very Light Power unique to the Luotian Sect, giving them even less reason to intervene.
Hua Gesang's complexion drastically changed.
She couldn't understand why Lianna's attack had suddenly become so formidable.
She quickly moved her saber in defense.
"Clang!"
Her curved saber was instantly severed, and she was sent flying backward, crashing to the ground beside her, a trickle of fresh blood spilling from the corner of her mouth.
"Die!"
Lianna's voice thundered as she swung her curved saber.
The Sword Light instantly transformed into a crescent arc, fiercely slashing towards Hua Gesang.
"Ge Sang!" Adam cried out in alarm.
Hua Gesang was scared to death, her face turning ashen.
Watching the descending Sword Light, a flash of horror crossed her eyes.
"Am I going to die?" The thought crossed Hua Gesang's mind.
The Sword Light was too terrifying; she couldn't possibly defend against it—at its mercy, her death was certain.
The crowd below cried out in alarm.
However, just when everyone thought this young girl was about to meet her demise,
a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of Hua Gesang, forcefully gripping the Sword Light in his hand.
"Huh?"
Everyone stared at the figure that had appeared out of nowhere, at the Sword Light caught in his hand, their faces revealing looks of astonishment.
Surprise was written all over Hua Gesang's face, too.
Although she had her suspicions about him, at this moment, she still felt somewhat stupefied.
That broad and majestic back caught the terrifying Sword Light barehanded.
Was this really the same boy who had been so scared that he buried himself in the sand?
Adam was stunned, staring at the young man standing in front of Hua Gesang, exuding an overwhelming aura.
His face also showed extreme shock.
"How... How is this possible?" Adam murmured to himself.
He had probed Xu Nian's cultivation several times, but Xu Nian had not shown a hint of Spiritual Energy.
How could he suddenly become so powerful?
Of course, the most astonished was Lianna.
She recognized the face of the youth in front of her—the same one who had been following Hua Gesang as her servant.
She had previously mocked him as a spineless shrimp.
Yet now, he had stopped her cleaving Sword Light with his fingertips.
What horrendous power was this?
At this moment, the only one leisurely smiling was the Pope, sitting aloft, musing to himself, "It seems you just couldn't hold back any longer and made your move."
In fact, the moment Lianna had unleashed that unique Light Power, the Pope had already felt the desire to act.
But she held back purposely to test Xu Nian, waiting to strike at the right moment.
And now, her strategy had finally paid off.
"Who are you, daring to disrupt the Holy Scripture of the Luotian Saint Sect, seeking death!"
Just then, one of the Six Great Dharma Kings stood out and roared.
Following that, a terrifying surge of Light Power welled up in his palm, launching directly at Xu Nian.
The aura emanating from this Dharma King was incredibly mighty, having reached the Four-star Battle Saint Realm.
In the blink of an eye, he was upon Xu Nian.
The palm, with its fear-inducing power, struck straight towards Xu Nian's face.
"Xu Nian..."
Upon seeing this scene, Hua Gesang couldn't help but cry out.
The crowd below showed expressions of terror.
Was this newly arrived young man about to die just like that?
However, when everyone thought Xu Nian was about to be killed,
a cold smile played on Xu Nian's lips.
In an instant, his hand transformed into a blade, piercing directly through the Dharma King's heart.
The entire place fell silent, everyone dumbstruck.
