Chapter 2231
At this moment, many of the people around him slowly broke free from their mental prison. Many of them seemed to be stunned and in a bad condition when they got out of the illusion. After all, the Divine Void Illusion used the weaknesses of the human heart and made them see things they never wish to face.

The disciples were frightened and thankful once they escaped the illusion.

“Oh my god! W-What sort of illusionary skill is that? It’s so…domineering that I thought everything was real! I was almost defeated!”

“Yes! Second Senior Brother, you’re awake too? You’re so much faster than the other clan brothers!”

Just as there were those who won, there were also those who lost the fight. Many of them failed and vomited blood as they had weak mental strength. These people were naturally covered by the orangish -red light and could no longer move as they had failed the challenge. However, most of them succeeded, and the success rate was as high as 70 percent. This percentage of people had succeeded in the challenge, and the Divine Void Warrior in front of them disappeared.

Soon, somebody realized that there was a person at the second challenge, facing the second Divine Void Warrior. “Who’s that?! D*mnit! He’s already arrived at the second challenge!”

At this moment, Griffin managed to escape the illusion, huffing and puffing as his vision slowly came to. He immediately looked around him and was pleased with himself when he saw that there were still some people who had not escaped the illusion. However, the noises of discussion around him stunned him before he had enough time to enjoy his victory.

“That’s Jack from the Dual Sovereign Pavilion, isn’t It? Isn’t he in the intermediate stage of innate level? Why is he so strong?! How determined is he?!”

“Do you know that the illusion we were in just now is also a type of martial skill? A determined mind can help us break free from the illusion, but it requires the support of our fighting prowess. We need to use a strong martial skill to cut off the improper thoughts! This isn’t something achievable only by a determined mind!”

“You’re right… We’ve certainly looked down at him!”

When these comments wafted into Griffin’s ears, he immediately looked up and saw Jack’s upright figure as he faced the second Divine Void Warrior, unmoving

“How could this…” Griffin felt like he had just swallowed dung. At this moment, the people who passed the first challenge were slowly climbing up the slope, and none of them wanted to be left behind. However, Jack was still much faster than everybody there!

Nelson looked at Jack with an unrecognizable expression in his eyes. He was relieved, envious, and jealous at the same time. He had also looked down at Jack, who had just become an elder disciple.

Although Jack also showed his extraordinary strength at the gathering spot for roll call and defeated Oliver, who was at the eighth position among formal disciples, this was nothing to the chosen disciples when he was just an informal disciple. After all, Jack was only in the intermediate stage of innate level.

However, it looked like he had underestimated Jack. Jack might not have even used all his strength during his fight with Oliver.

The masked man arrived at the 18-meter-range point with a darkened look on his face. A strand of purple light that appeared before the second Divine Void Warrior also appeared in front of him. He was the second person to arrive at the 18-meter-range point, but this felt more like an insult to him instead.

He might not be in such a foul mood if it was another person who was ahead of him. However, it was Jack, the young man he failed to kill and escaped from his hands twice. How could he stay calm when Jack surpassed him with a fighting prowess of intermediate stage of innate level?!

Chapter 2232
The masked man let out a long sigh as he narrowed his eyes at Jack. His gaze might have been so intense that it caused Jack, even though he was quite a distance away, to turn toward his direction. Despite the mask covering his face, Jack could still tell what expression laid beneath the mask just by looking at his eyes.

Was it defiance? Jealousy? Perhaps bitterness?

Jack let out a cold laugh. What did it matter if the masked man felt this way? A loss was a loss. Jack’s cold smirk evoked the masked man’s anger.

“Are you very pleased with yourself? Do you think you’ve surpassed me? You’re faster than me, which I can only attribute to your firm resolve. If you were really stronger than me, then why did you always retreat whenever we fought in the past?”

The masked man’s voice was clear and loud, despite the distance between him and Jack.

Jack raised an eyebrow, not angered by his words. “I know what the differences in our skills are, but don’t forget the fact that your cultivation has always been higher than mine by a whole realm. If the both of us were at the same level, you’d be the one running!”

“Nonsense!”

The masked man’s face rapidly reddened.

Jack could not be bothered to play along with the masked man and turned his head around. The minutes and seconds slowly ticked away as Jack quietly waited for the second battle. Once everyone who passed arrived at the 18-meter-point range, the second stage would formally begin.

Each of the Divine Warriors at the spot all exuded a vibrant purple, lavender glow, and all of them looked at each other with serious expressions.

Click!

All of them pulled out their swords, and the swords exuded a purple glow. Purple runes were etched on the swords, filled with a mysterious power.

The pulling of the swords symbolized the start of the battle. Shockingly, none of them made a move to attack, seemingly waiting for the challengers to attack

Jack looked at the Divine Warriors in front of them with no intention of making a move. The warriors at the 18-meter-point range looked the same as the ones they met at the first point, but the weapons the warriors had in hand were different, as well as their fighting prowess.

The warriors at the previous challenge had all been at the initial stage of the innate realm, while those facing them at that moment were already at the middle stage. However, they seemed to have only just broken through to the middle stage and did not seem to have a very steady foundation.

Looking at the way the warriors looked at him, it was the exact same from before. Their disdain-filled gaze gleamed with arrogance, not considering him to be a threat at all.

The first time Jack encountered those looks, Jack mentally cursed in his mind. They were no stronger than he was, so why were they looking at him like that?

Of course, Jack finally understood the reason.

Those restrained warriors might actually be great masters in the Divine Void World, with abilities that far exceeded everyone present. They were probably restricting their powers for the sake of the Divine Void Slope, which is why they looked at everyone present like ants.

“I’m not going to wait anymore! Let’s see what kind of tricks you have up your sleeve this time!” shouted a disciple from the Thousand Leaves Pavillion impatiently.

He then pulled out his one-meter-long sword and rushed right at the Divine Warriors in front of him. A blood-red glow radiated from the sword as he shouted loudly, “Blood Wave!”

A bloody aura covered his body as the sword in his hand looked like it had been pulled out of hell. It contained a wave of killing intent and thirst for blood as he slashed right at the Divine warrior in front of him.

“You’re just at the middle-stage of the Innate Realm! Show me what you’ve got!” the man shouted out as he attacked.

Chapter 2233
Practically everyone’s attention was focused on that man. The Divine warrior standing in front of him started to move the moment the disciple used that skill.

The purple blade in the warrior’s hand let out a vibrant glow as the warrior took the Blood Wave head -on, rushing forward.

At that moment, however, a clink was heard as the purple aura that was on the Divine warrior shone so vibrant that everyone shut their eyes. The Divine warrior was submerged in the purple light.

The purple light dissipated in the next second, but a shocking scene greeted everyone. The Divine warrior had split into two identical Divine warriors. Both of them held their purple swords and faced the attack of the disciple from the Thousand Leaves Pavillion.

“Another illusory art! It’s a phantom this time!” a number of disciples exclaimed in shock.

The disciple from the Thousand Leaves Pavillion thought the same as well. The disciple furrowed his eyebrows and stared at the Divine warrior that had been split into two before coldly snorting, “You can’t fool me!”

His one-meter-long blade changed directions, slashing right at the Divine warrior in the left.

A massive explosion reverberated throughout the venue, and purple light clashed against the bloody aura, emitting a painfully sharp crackling sound. The purple light was incredibly radiant, but it still did not manage to hold the torrent of blood for too long.

Under a torrent of noise, the blood aura swallowed the purple light, and the blade had slashed right toward the Divine warrior.

“Good stuff! He managed to see through it immediately!” The onlookers all cheered for the disciple from the Thousand Leaves Pavillion.
