I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart Chapter 127 - Thunderbolt Sword-Drawing Technique—Lightning Flash

Chapter 127: Thunderbolt Sword-Drawing Technique—Lightning Flash

Lin Yao felt helpless upon seeing the difference in score between the other schools and No.1 High School, yet other people were very calm. Almost all the geniuses in Ninghai City were in No.1 High School. It was very normal for it to have such a ranking. No.1 High School was not competing against the high school Lin Yao studied at or the other high schools in the city. Instead, their compet.i.tors were high schools in other cities within the province.

“39th round. No. 67 vs. No. 35. Partic.i.p.ants, hold the cards and enter Arena No. 3.

“I repeat, 39th round, No. 67 vs. No. 35. Partic.i.p.ants, hold the cards and enter Arena No. 3.”

When the prompt was heard, Lin Yao stood up immediately after hearing it. He held his number card and strode toward the arena.

Upon reaching the arena, he gave his number card to the referee. Besides Lin Yao’s number and name, his photo and some information were also on the number card. This was to prevent someone from posing as Lin Yao. After verifying his ident.i.ty, the referee also illuminated Lin Yao’s face with a piece of equipment to confirm Lin Yao’s ident.i.ty.

After completing the procedure, before Lin Yao could breathe a sigh of relief, he looked toward the opposite side in surprise.

“It’s you.”

“Brother-in-law, it seems we were destined to meet.”

When she reached the arena, the young lady’s face broke into a wide smile again. Lin Yao narrowed his eyes at her innocent smile.

“It was destiny! Ha ha!

“Is my brother-in-law angry? This is just your luck. Besides, fighting against me is also beneficial to you. Given your abilities, you will definitely have to fight against an advanced martial artist. In this case, it is better to fight against me than against someone else. After all, I am a second-year student. It is easier for you to fight against a younger player.”

“Can a second-year student partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion?”

“Of course, the youth compet.i.tion only states that the partic.i.p.ant must not be older than the stipulated age. It doesn’t matter if one is younger than the rest.”

The opponent kept talking while the referee was inspecting and checking everything. However, Lin Yao had no wish to engage in small talk with her anymore. He attached the weapon that was beside the arena to his waist to use it during this match. He then closed his eyes and began to control his breathing.

On the contrary, Yan Yu’er, who was on the opposite side, kept talking.

“Brother-in-law, you can’t get my family’s approval just by relying on your good looks. Why don’t you rely on me? I can help you get the family’s approval.”

“The sister-in-law spies on the brother-in-law… That sounds quite interesting. However, is there any difference between marrying Yan Yan and you? Or would it be easier to marry you?”

When she heard these words, Yan Yu’er’s smile vanished, and there was a flash of anger on her face.

“Marry me? It’s very daring of you to even think about that.”

Her short reply made Lin Yao understand her att.i.tude toward him. She looked down upon him.

The girl in front of him did not feel that Lin Yao was at the same level as her.

Lin Yao had said he wanted to marry her, and she regarded that as an insult.

She might not know what was going on in Lin Yao’s mind, or perhaps she knew but did not care at all. After rejecting Lin Yao in contempt, she brought up her suggestion again.

“Brother-in-law, what I meant is that you can be my guard, and I will help you marry my sister in return.”

“Guard?”

Lin Yao was totally shocked by her words.

“Don’t tell me that you think your sister can marry a mere guard? Do you think so little of her? What’s the situation in your family… Forget it, this is your family affair. It has nothing to do with me. Let me make it clear that I am not in a romantic relations.h.i.+p with your sister.”

After speaking, Lin Yao noticed that the personnel was also verifying Yan Yu’er’s ident.i.ty. Hence, he stopped speaking and began getting ready for the match.

The referee, who had been silent for a long time, also gestured at the two of them. After both of them performed the martial artist etiquette, he raised his arm high, preparing to swing down after the countdown.

“3, 2…”

When the referee asked Lin Yao and Yan Yu’er to perform the martial artist etiquette, the big screen cut to Lin Yao, who was in the arena.

A total of four games would be held in the stadium at the same time, and there were screens nearby showing the situation inside. However, the big screen of the stadium was connected to the live broadcast of the TV station, and it would only show the ongoing battle that was happening in one of the arenas. The target audience of the live broadcast was the people in Ninghai City so that they would feel more a.s.sured while watching the geniuses from their city. It was also a business tactic. In order to attract more people to watch the game, it was better to broadcast the match that could captivate a larger audience.

Lin Yao and Yan Yan were not the strongest players, but the s.h.i.+rtless handsome young man and the lovely, lively pet.i.te girl were naturally very eye-catching. Therefore, the live broadcast zoomed in on this pair right away.

The two warlords also gave commentary based on the scenes shown on the big screen. After Lin Yao and his team were shown on the big screen, a prompt appeared on the tablet that the two of them had placed on the table. They read up on Lin Yao and Yan Yan based on the information given.

“Right now, Lin Yao, a third-year student from No. 4 High School will be playing against Yan Yu’er, a second-year student from No. 1 High School.”

“Yan Yu’er is so cute. Is a second-year student too young to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion? Plus, there is a huge difference between their physiques. This seems to be a big guy bullying a small girl. I am very worried about Student Yan Yu’er and I hope that Student Lin Yao will not be too harsh on her.”

“You are wrong. It is Student Lin Yao who should be worried. Success goes to the determined person regardless of age. Although Student Yan Yu’er is only a second-year student, she is already an advanced martial artist, while Lin Yao is only an intermediate martial artist.”

“Oh, in that case, is Student Yan Yu’er bullying Lin Yao instead?”

“Yan Yu’er worked very hard to become an advanced martial artist in her second year of high school. Besides, she has many talents. It is said that her body training realm, Iron Realm, has reached 90%. There will soon be one more warlord from No. 1 High School in next year’s youth compet.i.tion.”

“It’s a pity. Student Lin Yao is actually pretty good. He has the power of thunder and light. He could still win if he was facing another martial artist, but this time, he is up against Yan Yu’er. Well, this is his fate.”

…

While the warlords were commenting on the players, most of the audience also saw Student Lin Yao thanks to the big screen.

Thereafter, loud cheers were heard in the entire stadium, showing unanimous support for one of the players.

“Student Yan Yu’er, defeat him.”

“Give that scoundrel a harsh beating.”

“Student Yan Yu’er, I love you.”

“Humph, shameless.”

…

Actually, Lin Yao was also a handsome guy who had his own special effects. Even though he was facing a beauty, he would usually get the same support and cheers as the opponent.

This time was different. The s.h.i.+rtless Lin Yao was too hateful. Although many girls were reluctant to tear their eyes away from his body, they did not dare be too blatant about it and did not cheer loudly for Lin Yao, who was too brazen.

This was why everyone ended up showing unanimous support for one player.

Of course, Lin Yao did not lack supporters. After realizing that Lin Yao’s opponent was Yan Yu’er, Yan Yan stood up with her fists clenched and stared intently at the arena.

Yan Yu’er sensed her gaze and smiled mischievously at Yan Yan.

However, although she might have seemed naughty in the eyes of others, to Yan Yan, this was a form of provocation.

“d.a.m.n it, I have implicated Student Lin Yao.”

“3, 2 ,1… The battle begins!”

While Yan Yu’er was still provoking Yan Yan, the referee counted down to one and waved his arms to start the duel.

As soon as the referee swung his arms downward, Lin Yao moved his left foot back and his right foot forward, bending his body into a lunge and making a gesture to draw his sword.

When Lin Yao moved his left foot, two vital energy seeds exploded in his body right away. One of them was the holy light vital energy seed. As it was unleashed, a guardian holy seal appeared in the center of the Sun G.o.d Pattern on his chest.

The guardian holy seal condensed, and a force spread from the center of Lin Yao’s chest toward his whole body. That force activated the power of light in Lin Yao’s cells, allowing the power of light to enhance Lin Yao’s body to the extreme.

[Guardian Holy Seal (Proficient): Enhances physical strength by 50%]

[Bonus of the Armored Body Of Light: The activation speed of combat skills is increased by 100%, the strength of combat skills is increased by 100%, the duration is enhanced, the power of light will not dissipate, and the holy seal will remain.]

One’s talent could enhance the power of one’s strikes. For example, a wind talent would enhance the sword aura, and the Heavenly Thunder would enhance the Deafening Thunder Roar. Since the holy seal was a light attribute ability, the Armored Body Of Light would naturally be able to enhance it.

There was a large amount of light energy within Lin Yao’s body. As a result, he was faster at activating the light attribute abilities and much more powerful. The abilities could also last longer.

This also applied to the Clear Mirror Body Technique that he’d used some time ago. Ordinary light attribute geniuses had to be at least an intermediate martial artist to be able to unleash five vital energy seeds in one go, dispersing the light energy all over the body, and use the Clear Mirror Body Technique that concealed the body. Lin Yao was able to achieve that even when he was a low-level martial artist due to the sunlight absorption.

Besides, when ordinary people unleashed their vital energy seeds, the vital energy would dissipate and they would no longer be able to use the Clear Mirror Body Technique. However, Lin Yao could last a long time because he kept scattering light energy. This was due to the enhancement of the Clear Mirror Body Technique by the light talent.

Back then, Lin Yao had only known that there was an increase, but he had not calculated how much the increase would be. The current figure was calculated by Senior Sister Jiang Rong during Lin Yao’s training.

The power of the guardian holy seal spread to Lin Yao’s body, and his physical strength instantly increased by 100%.

Right now, Lin Yao’s physical strength was Iron Person 49% + Body of Light 90% + guardian holy seal 100%, which totaled up to 239%.

Of course, 239% only referred to his physical strength, which was his toughness or physique. His speed and strength were still at 139%. The guardian holy seal did not enhance his strength or speed.

However, this was already good enough. Right now, Lin Yao could act as a human s.h.i.+eld to compete with people of the same rank.

In fact, Lin Yao did more than that. He was already an intermediate martial artist. When his left foot moved backward, two vital energy seeds exploded together.

One of the seeds was the light attribute vital energy seed, which turned into the guardian holy seal, and the other seed was the thunder vital energy seed.

When he unleashed the thunder vital energy seed, the power of thunder and lightning instantly rushed into Lin Yao’s mind, activating his thinking speed, and everything in the world seemed to slow down in Lin Yao’s eyes.

Yan Yu’er, who had provoked Yan Yan, was preparing to turn back with a bright smile on her face. Due to the acceleration of his thinking speed, Lin Yao felt that she seemed to be turning back very slowly.

The commentary rang in Lin Yao’s ears, and there was also an intermittent pause.

“Student… Lin Yao… got… into… posture… to… draw… the… sword…”

Lin Yao ignored everything from the outside world. While his thinking speed was accelerating, he used the residual power of thunder and lightning of the thunder vital energy seed to link his body’s neural network so that his own power was integrated into one in an instant. His muscles were stimulated, and he broke his body’s shackles, unleas.h.i.+ng 200% of his power.

Boom!

Due to the unleashed extreme power, an inexplicable force spread throughout Lin Yao’s body. In the meantime, Lin Yao’s body was s.h.i.+ning with thunder and lightning. Lin Yao could sense all these feelings due to the acceleration of his thinking speed.

Of course, these external appearances were not important. What was important was that Lin Yao had broken his body’s shackles.

Di Qiang had full-body control, but he only dared to blow up 100% of his power. He was afraid of damaging his body if he exceeded that by even slightly more. In the past, Lin Yao had only dared to unleash 200% of his power. If he went any higher, he would have to rest.

Even if it was 200%, he would be injured if he did it twice in a row.

However, right now, Lin Yao was different, as he had the power of the holy seal to enhance his power.

After unleas.h.i.+ng 200% of his power, Lin Yao did not feel extreme pain to the point of being torn apart, like he’d felt in the past.

‘I was right to learn the guardian holy seal.’

Thoughts kept popping up in his mind. However, in this acceleration state, Lin Yao quickly cut off all irrelevant thoughts and focused his attention on the battle.

Although he had a long thought process about what had just happened, the time that had pa.s.sed was actually very short. The two vital energy seeds were unleashed in an instant. Right now, Yan Yu’er, who was smiling at Yan Yan, had yet to turn back to face Lin Yao.

In fact, she had no chance to do that.

Boom!

There was a loud booming sound as the ground beneath Lin Yao’s feet cracked and exploded. Lin Yao’s figure turned into thunderlight and disappeared in the arena.
