Amid the crowd's gaze, Huo Xingkong stepped onto the arena with a long spear in hand, standing thirty steps away from Lin Xiaoyun.
Seeing Lin Xiaoyun standing there with an unyielding demeanor, Huo Xingkong sneered coldly:
"Heh, I didn't expect you to have some guts, to actually refuse to admit defeat."
Lin Xiaoyun remained silent, the battle intent in his eyes growing ever stronger.
Huo Xingkong's face showed a mocking expression, "What, do you really think you stand a chance of defeating me?"
"I won't know unless I try!"
Buzz!
Behind Lin Xiaoyun, a majestic purple stone stele emerged, with nine stars floating within, rising and sinking. He began to walk towards Huo Xingkong, his presence escalating with each step.
Huo Xingkong, incensed by Lin Xiaoyun's unperturbed expression, shook his spear. The tip pointed directly at Lin Xiaoyun as he sneered:
"A cripple dares to posture in front of me! I'll kill you within ten moves!"
