At the same time, Tang Wulin seized the initiative for the first time in his matches and pounced directly toward the center of the vast expanse of sand like a hunting falcon. The air around him began to warp, and all of the sand that was spreading through the area suddenly converged toward the center, almost instantly forming back into Lu Yuxing.
Lu Yuxing wore a completely dumbstruck expression, clearly having no idea what had just happened.
Lightning surged over the bluish-purple scales that had appeared on Tang Wulin's right hand, and he reached out directly toward Lu Yuxing.
After only a split-second delay, Lu Yuxing immediately returned to his senses, and he shot back like lightning while trying to disintegrate into sand again. At the same time, countless grains of sand shot forth toward Tang Wulin like a barrage of speeding arrows.
The palm of Tang Wulin's dragon claw suddenly turned a blackish-purple color, and a vast expanse of lightning erupted forth while the air around Tang Wulin warped once again.
All of a sudden, Lu Yuxing reappeared at the exact spot where he had been a moment ago, and Tang Wulin's electric dragon claw was already waiting for him there; it was as if Lu Yuxing had rushed into the attack on his own!
Specks of light appeared all over Lu Yuxing's body as he attempted to release his battle armor, but a burst of enormous repulsive force suddenly erupted out of the palm of Tang Wulin's right hand.
Lu Yuxing was struck by a rush of dizziness, and his connection with his own battle armor was instantly severed.
Lightning crackled all over Lu Yuxing's body as he was caught in Tang Wulin's grasp, and in that instant, Tang Wulin resembled an insurmountable Lightning God.
"Alright, the match has begun, and... Ah! Yu Longyue is taking the initiative in this match! What's going on? Why has Lu Yuxing returned to his human form? Hold on, judging from his expression, he doesn't appear to have done so voluntarily. My God! The match is over!"
That's right, the highly anticipated match between two Titled Douluos was over before Ai Fei could even muster up a complete sentence.
Lu Yuxing hadn't even managed to unleash any of his soul skills before he was steamrolled.
This was the result of a combination of Tang Wulin's Time Reversal domain and Dragon Emperor Restriction Techniques.
Following the breakthrough Tang Wulin had made in his spiritual power, his spiritual domain had naturally been enhanced as well. There was simply far too huge a disparity between the spiritual powers of Tang Wulin and Lu Yuxing, so the latter was completely crushed.
Tang Wulin hadn't given Lu Yuxing any chances in that match.
Due to the warping of light rays caused by the Time Reversal domain, it seemed that Lu Yuxing had suddenly teleported, and only he and Tang Wulin knew exactly what had happened.
In the eyes of the spectators, it appeared that Lu Yuxing withdrew his martial soul, then rushed headfirst into Tang Wulin's attack.
Grains of sand fell onto the competition platform while emitting a faint hissing sound, clearly indicating that they were laced with lethal poison. In order to defeat Tang Wulin, Lu Yuxing had pulled out all the stops. He knew that he was no match for Tang Wulin, so he had fused poison into his sand, but he didn't even get a chance to make use of the poison before he was crushed by Tang Wulin.
Tang Wulin hurled Lu Yuxing away in a disdainful manner before departing in an expressionless manner, and Lu Yuxing fell to the ground, convulsing uncontrollably.
Qiangu Zhangting looked on in a flabbergasted manner as Tang Wulin stopped in front of the rostrum, then seemingly said something before continuing to depart, not even sparing so much as a second glance at Lu Yuxing.
Lan Fuozi also had no idea what had happened during that match, and all of a sudden, she didn't feel as frustrated by the fact that Tang Wulin had caught her in a stranglehold so easily.
Gu Yuena stood on the rostrum, and her calm expression did nothing to disguise the emotions raging in her eyes.
Tang Wulin had indeed said something to the rostrum, and it had only been audible to her.
"I'll never give up!"
If anyone had managed to figure out what had happened during that match, then it was Gu Yuena. Tang Wulin had displayed the full extent of his powers during this match.
Under the disguise of his lightning, he had instantly crushed his opponent with his Time Reversal domain and Dragon Emperor Break. He had even unleashed a spiritual attack against Lu Yuxing while controlling him with his lightning.
As a result, even Lu Yuxing wouldn't be able to recall what had happened during the battle. As such, not only had Tang Wulin defeated his opponent extremely quickly, he had managed to conceal his abilities as well.
After emerging from the Bright City Sports Stadium, Tang Wulin gave Yuanen Yehui a call. "Have you made up your mind, Yuanen?"
"I have. After this joust for a spouse event, I'm going to return home to see my father; Xie Xie will also be coming with me."
"Alright, that sounds like a solid plan. Feel free to contact me at any time if you need me; I'll take care of everything over at the academy," Tang Wulin said.
"Thank you." Yuanen Yehui wasn't one to display much emotion, so those two simple words were enough to express her feelings.
If Tang Wulin hadn't withstood Yuanen Zhentian's three attacks, perhaps she would still be completely oblivious to these matters. After learning the truth, she had decided to visit her father, then listen to her grandfather's advice.
After ending the call, Tang Wulin made no effort to disguise himself as he made his way back to the blacksmith association. He had already become quite famous from his previous matches, but he was currently giving off a forbidding aura that convinced people against approaching him.
All of a sudden, Tang Wulin seemed to have sensed something, and he immediately cast his gaze toward a certain direction.
At the end of the street stood a man in a set of very normal clothing. He wore a wide-brim hat that was tilted downward to conceal his facial features, but Tang Wulin was able to immediately sense his presence.
This was a chilling sensation that only arose when he was in life-threatening danger.
Even though Tang Wulin was currently in the bustling center of Bright City, he felt like they were the only two people in this world.
The man stopped in his tracks and stuck his hands into his pockets, but his aura was only becoming more and more pronounced. Even with Tang Wulin's powers, he was struck by a sense of asphyxiation.
After a brief hesitation, Tang Wulin made his way directly toward the man as he knew that he wouldn't be able to avoid him. At this distance, it would be impossible for him to escape or call for help. The man had released his aura without any fear of being noticed, so he clearly wanted Tang Wulin to detect his presence.
As Tang Wulin drew closer, he was able to glean the man's appearance.
