At this moment, everyone also looked towards Lin Wuya. A half-step Great Sage level expert, coupled with extraordinary talent and strength, might be able to withstand a hundred moves.
However, Lin Wuya did not intend to act yet. He stood in place, appearing calm, as if he planned to be the final contender.
"Let me try!"
Just then, the young master of the Tao family's voice rang out, his gaze more serious, looking eager. He could sense that Elder Wuming was very strong, but this was his only chance to participate in the peak battle.
Moreover, he knew very well that if he could become the top contender in the peak battle, he would gain the recognition of Zhongzhou Academy and even receive a mysterious inheritance. As for what this inheritance was, he was not entirely sure.
However, anything that Zhongzhou Academy valued was naturally not ordinary.
Seeing the young master of the Tao family step forward, everyone present was somewhat puzzled. So many people dared not act rashly, yet the young master of the Tao family was so reckless, wanting to force his way in. This was no trivial matter.
Although Elder Wuming mastered the power, if he couldn't control it well, he could easily cause fatal injuries.
"You've got guts, kid. Come and try!" Elder Wuming shrugged slightly, not satisfied with the young master of the Tao family. Regardless of his strength, anyone who dared to challenge him would surely have more opportunities in their future growth.
With a leap, the young master of the Tao family arrived before Elder Wuming. At the same time, he formed a hand seal, and behind him, a giant beast surged forth, appearing terrifying. This phantom covered the sky and obscured the sun, like a white tiger, striking fear into people's hearts.
"What is this? Dharma Image Phantom?"
Everyone present was startled and deeply shocked. The Dharma Image Phantom was not an ordinary spell; it was an extremely ancient secret technique. The caster needed exceptional talent, and once the Dharma Image Phantom appeared, it could instantly boost their combat power and place them in an invincible position.
"I never expected that you, a young child, would appear simple, yet the technique you wield is extraordinary!" Elder Wuming teased. "This Dharma Image Phantom is no ordinary art. You've actually managed to cultivate it!"
"You flatter me, Elder!"
The young master of the Tao family smiled slightly. "I truly don't know how strong the Dharma Image Phantom is. I hope to last a hundred moves against you, Elder, so I can participate in this peak battle!"
"I'm afraid that won't be enough!" Elder Wuming shook his head. "Your talent is strong, but unfortunately, you haven't fully grown yet. With your current talent, you can barely last fifty moves!"
Everyone present was astonished to hear this. Being able to last fifty moves was already very good. If that were the case, the young master of the Tao family's strength would definitely be much more powerful, even more terrifying, than theirs.
Meanwhile, Lu Fan was also shocked to see the Dharma Image Phantom. He knew very well that the Dharma Image Phantom was extraordinary, and once unleashed, it would cover the sky and obscure the sun.
After a fierce exchange, with the enhancement of the Dharma Image Phantom, the young master of the Tao family's aura became more powerful, appearing exceptionally terrifying. Unfortunately, before Elder Wuming, even the most formidable peerless prodigies could not make a difference.
After about fifty moves, the young master of the Tao family could no longer hold on and stumbled backward, his heart filled with shock. This was the first time he had used his full strength, and he never expected Elder Wuming to handle it so effortlessly, as if he didn't even take it seriously.
"Good kid, this Dharma Image Phantom is no simple feat!"
Elder Wuming smiled. "Among so many people, you are indeed a peerless prodigy. Being able to last fifty moves is truly remarkable. It's a pity that to enter the peak battle, you're still a bit short."
The young master of the Tao family felt a sense of helplessness. Although he knew his strength had flaws and he was no match for Elder Wuming, being told this by Elder Wuming made him feel disheartened.
"Elder Wuming, you are a Great Sage level figure. We are no match for you!"
A man said helplessly, "Isn't this assessment too strict? If it continues like this, I'm afraid no one will succeed!"
"You can't say that. Just because we don't have the strength doesn't mean others don't!" Several other men spoke up, looking towards Lin Wuya. "Senior Brother Lin Wuya hasn't made a move yet. Given the current situation, if he acts, he will surely turn the tide!"
Following these words, the others nodded in agreement. Lin Wuya was a being who had reached the half-step Great Sage level. If he truly made a move, perhaps there would be some ripple.
Meanwhile, Elder Wuming also turned his gaze towards Lin Wuya. "Why haven't you made a move yet, kid? What are you waiting for?"
In response to these words, Lin Wuya smiled. "I just wanted to see if anyone could break through Elder Wuming's defense. But now it seems I was overthinking. No one could achieve it. It seems that if I pass Elder Wuming's test, I will be the only one in the Zhongzhou Academy peak battle. In that case, I will obtain the inheritance of Zhongzhou Academy!"
Everyone present watched with envy. As Lin Wuya said, if he could truly achieve this, he would obtain the inheritance of Zhongzhou Academy, which would be an immense honor for them.
More importantly, the inheritance of Zhongzhou Academy was extremely secretive. It was rumored that after receiving the inheritance, one could become invincible in the world, which would naturally stir many people.
At that very moment, Lin Wuya stepped forward, and in an instant, he arrived before Elder Wuming, smiling. "I hope Elder Wuming will go easy on me!"
"Go easy?" Elder Wuming narrowed his eyes. "You're probably thinking too much. I never go easy. However, you're already a half-step Great Sage, probably the most powerful existence among all the disciples. Why would you need me to go easy?"
"Elder Wuming is joking!"
Lin Wuya smiled faintly, his aura instantly surging, carrying a terrifying presence that was difficult to fathom, even causing a sense of dread. Naturally, no one expected Elder Lin Wuya to be so powerful, so powerful as to inspire fear.
"As expected of the academy's strongest!"
Many disciples exclaimed, their hearts filled with shock, their gazes serious.
Lu Fan frowned slightly upon seeing Lin Wuya. No wonder he was so admired. Such a powerful aura was indeed terrifying. Perhaps even the foundations of a sacred land were nothing before Lin Wuya, which showed how formidable Lin Wuya was.
