Chapter 0413: Enchanting Hong Lan

Qin Yun's opponent is Xu Yuke!

Xu Yuke is very strong, a disciple of the Tyrant King Sect, and the new most beautiful woman in the Northern Region, attracting a lot of attention.

Xu Yuke sneered, "Qin Yun, your luck isn't so great, is it?"

"It's alright," Qin Yun replied indifferently.

"You seem to have a good relationship with that woman Feng Honglan. Her martial spirit was shattered, and she's scarred. Yet you still protect her. What a hopeless romantic! Hahaha..." Xu Yuke laughed heartily.

Qin Yun felt a surge of anger but took a deep breath to suppress it. "I don't understand how you were chosen as the most beautiful woman in the Northern Region, to end up with someone like you! Honestly, in terms of looks and temperament, you don't measure up to Hong Lan in any aspect!"

"The Runes Hall should set higher standards! How could they choose someone like you, damaging the reputation of our Northern Region!"

The crowd intentionally spoke loudly, causing Xu Yuke's face to darken with anger.

Xu Yuke was enraged. "Feng Honglan is scarred, forever disfigured! What does she have to compare with me?"

"No matter what, she still surpasses you!" Qin Yun retorted coldly.

The crowd silently observed their argument. Many still believed Feng Honglan was far superior to Xu Yuke as the most beautiful woman in the Northern Region, though they dared not say it aloud.

"People from other regions have arrived! The Eastern, Southern, and Western Regions... They all look strong. Are they totemic warriors?" someone suddenly said.

Everyone immediately turned their gaze to the main road leading to the Martial Arts Field.

Indeed, a group of people approached, chatting and laughing.

"There are quite a few women... Maybe the Four Beauties of Wuhuang will all be here!"

"The other three regions must be formidable. Are they here to observe our Northern Region's martial arts competition and learn more?"

Martial King Hong Ying said to Hong Yan and Hong Mengshu, "Come, I'll take you to meet my old friends!"

Xiao Yuemei also eagerly followed, as this would broaden her horizons and aid her in deceiving others in the future.

The group that arrived unexpectedly all seemed extraordinary, especially the young people following their elders, who were undoubtedly strong.

Xu Yuke noticed a few young and beautiful women among them, and her expression changed, worried that she might be overshadowed.

Qin Yun thought that if Feng Honglan were here, even with her low cultivation, she would still outshine the most beautiful women of the other regions.

"Grand Master, how is the most beautiful woman chosen?" Qin Yun asked Mu Fengxiao.

"Well... It's recommended by the major sects, and then the Runes Masters of the Runes Hall vote to decide," Mu Fengxiao explained.

"So that's how it is. It seems not many from the Northern Region signed up this time," Qin Yun said with a smirk.

Xu Yuke said coldly, "Qin Yun, you've seen it for yourself. The young talents from the other three regions are here! Later, I'll show them how you meet a miserable end at my hands!"

"Fine! I've already crossed the Fire King Sect and the Qingtian King Sect. I don't mind adding your Tyrant King Sect to the list," Qin Yun said with a faint smile.

The semi-finals were about to begin, with both matches happening simultaneously!

"It's definitely going to be Wu Kuangxiang from the Totem Pavilion and Xu Yuke from the Tyrant King Sect in the finals!"

"Qin Yun is also very strong. He might just defeat Xu Yuke!"

"That's impossible!"

"Xu Yuke isn't as dumb as Fan Haiteng, and she now knows Qin Yun quite well, but Qin Yun is unaware of her totem and martial spirit!"

The crowd thought Qin Yun didn't stand much of a chance.

The group from the other three states, all from top-tier sects and Hongwu Country, were utterly shocked to hear that a totemic warrior had died.

This was shocking news, as in fights, one can usually surrender unless completely overpowered, and deaths are extremely rare.

About a hundred people from the three states walked forward, eager to see the big names of the northern state.

They were even more interested in watching the totemic warrior in action from the Totem Pavilion.

In the eyes of many, Wu Kuangxiang from the Totem Pavilion was the top-tier third-level warrior in the northern state, and he was likely to have dual totems!

After Qin Yun and Xu Yuke made their preparations, the fight was about to start, and the crowd swiftly focused their gaze on Qin Yun's arena.

Since Wu Kuangxiang could win hands down, not many people watched his match.

But Qin Yun, as a unique second-level warrior, was someone everyone was eager to see, win or lose.

Many felt that Qin Yun still had some serious skills, otherwise he wouldn't have made it this far.

They quietly rooted for Qin Yun to defeat Xu Yuke and then face the Totem Pavilion.

The bell tolled!

Qin Yun darted back without striking!

Facing a totemic warrior, it would be a mistake to rush in without knowing the opponent's totem.

At the start of the fight, Xu Yuke let out a seductive laugh, with a wispy red haze emanating from her body, quickly spreading around the arena.

"It's Hong Lan's martial spirit!" Qin Yun was stunned and enraged.

Feng Honglan's martial spirit was actually on Xu Yuke!

"Hong Lan's martial spirit is on you?" Qin Yun bellowed in fury.

"A martial spirit this great belongs to me alone! Feng Honglan, that wretch, having Hong Lan's martial spirit is simply an insult to such a good martial spirit!"

Xu Yuke let out a triumphant laugh: "Qin Yun, Feng Honglan's martial spirit is on me, but you can't do anything about it!"

"Moreover, I will use Hong Lan's martial spirit to kill you. Feng Honglan, that little wretch, will surely be very sad when she finds out, hahaha..."

"You are not worthy of Hong Lan's martial spirit!" Qin Yun snarled, lunging forward and instantly arriving in front of Xu Yuke.

As he approached, about to strike, he saw Xu Yuke's appearance change to look exactly like Feng Honglan, with a look of utter despair.

Qin Yun, about to attack, was startled and immediately stopped.

Boom!

Xu Yuke struck several times with her palms, hitting Qin Yun's body.

Qin Yun was pushed back more than ten steps, his clothes torn, with many palm prints on his body.

The red palm prints, carrying a faint scent of red orchid fragrance, were imprinted on Qin Yun's body!

"Hahaha..." Xu Yuke laughed heartily, "Qin Yun, you're finished!"

Mo Mo quickly said, "Yun brother, that's the power of the Soul-Intoxicating Totem! Its power can intoxicate the martial soul, making it sluggish and powerless!"

An elder from the southern state remarked, "That must be the Soul-Intoxicating Totem! This totem is incredibly unique, granting a special power that can be branded onto a person's body, then used to intoxicate the martial soul, preventing it from exerting its strength!"

"It seems the Totem Pavilion has collected quite a few good totems!"

"Wu Kuangxiang from the Totem Pavilion has won again, without a fight. No one dares to challenge him, after all, he's from the Totem Pavilion!"

Xu Yuke's ability to transform her appearance was also due to the power of the totem. By combining the Red Orchid Martial Soul with the Soul-Intoxicating Totem, she enhanced the intoxicating power to further weaken the martial soul.

Qin Yun quickly activated the art of soul refinement, concentrating the soul refinement power in his palm to erase the palm prints branded on his body.

He easily wiped them away, leaving Xu Yuke unable to laugh.

"It seems your totem doesn't grant you much power; it's only useful as an auxiliary!" Qin Yun sneered coldly. A totem warrior without a totem is not much different from an ordinary third-level martial realm.

In Qin Yun's eyes, Xu Yuke was practically without a totem!

The elders of the Overlord Sect, seeing Qin Yun effortlessly erase the palm prints, were all amazed and started discussing how it was possible.

Xu Yuke's totem was indeed formidable. If one were struck by a few palm prints, the power of the martial soul would be nullified, severely weakening one's power and leading to a quick defeat.

But now, Qin Yun's soul refinement power could remove the palm prints!

"You... how did you do that..."

Before Xu Yuke could finish, she noticed Qin Yun rushing towards her. She quickly transformed into Feng Honglan's form, but her face still took a direct blow from the Ultimate Dragon Palm!

The furious Ultimate Dragon Palm, with lightning and fire flashing, enveloped Xu Yuke!

Boom!

Qin Yun's palm struck Xu Yuke's cheek with tremendous force, unleashing waves of purple-gold lightning and fire!

The raging thunder and flames swept across the entire arena, turning it into a blazing inferno, an utterly horrifying scene!

And with that single palm strike, Xu Yuke's head was obliterated.

Another totem warrior had fallen, and again, with just one palm strike!

Qin Yun's Ultimate Dragon Palm once again shocked the entire audience!

What amused everyone was that the recently chosen beauty of the northern state had died so soon after being selected!

The people of the Strange Patterns Hall were extremely annoyed, as they would have to conduct another selection.

"The Ultimate Dragon Palm is truly terrifying!"

"That kid's Ultimate Dragon Palm has attained a certain level of skill!"

"He's only at the second level of martial realm, yet he possesses such power. How is that possible?"

"Don't forget, he has the Purple-Gold Twin Martial Souls and Twin Cores. That's extremely fearsome!"

The people from the other three states had just arrived and, upon hearing that Fan Haiteng, a totem warrior, had been killed with a single palm strike, couldn't believe it at first.

At this moment, they didn’t have to wait long before witnessing a totemic warrior being killed on the arena with a single palm strike.

Qin Yun struck Xu Yuke’s abdomen with a palm, releasing a burst of flames, and then performed the soul retrieval technique to reclaim Feng Honglan’s martial soul.

The flames on the arena hid his retrieval of the martial soul.

Only Xiao Yuemei and Murong Daren knew that Qin Yun was reclaiming Feng Honglan’s martial soul.

The fiery thunder on the arena gradually dissipated, and Xu Yuke was reduced to ashes.

Qin Yun triumphantly retrieved Feng Honglan’s martial soul, his heart swelling with joy.

"Totemic warriors? Overrated! They couldn’t even handle one palm strike!" Qin Yun snorted disdainfully.

His Ultimate Dragon Palm, condensed with the power of three Dao Pills, was incredibly terrifying.

Only those who’ve felt it can grasp its power.

Qin Yun realized that channeling the Nether Sun Dao Pill’s power into the Ultimate Dragon Palm unleashed its true terror.

Previously unable to tap into the Nether Sun martial soul’s power, he now unleashed immense force through the Ultimate Dragon Palm.

The Tyrant King Sect elder’s furious curses echoed to the heavens.

The previous Qingtian King Sect fared slightly better, at least leaving half a corpse to collect.

Now, Xu Yuke was reduced to nothing—not even ashes remained.

Mu Fengxiao shouted, "Next will be the final battle, Qin Yun versus Wu Kuangxiang! The strongest third-level martial realm warriors of the North State will determine the outcome in the next match!"

He sensed Qin Yun still held back immense power and couldn’t wait for the clash between Qin Yun and Wu Kuangxiang.
