C66 Lin Feng
Earth essence started to materialize on Lin Sho's body, as an earth armor started to form around him.
"You BASTARD! Die!" Lin Sho shouted as he dashes towards Lin Feng, as soon as his Earth Guard was finished forming.
He now looked like a huge wall, that is unstoppable to immobilized.
There are no openings on his charge. Great defense, yet super deadly.
This was one of the advantages of an Earth Cultivator.
Even though the enemy has super speed. What could he do if he can't penetrate you?
The only problem that they have is their own mobility.
However...
As an Earth Cultivator from a Clan like the Lin Clan. Lin Sho definitely had some movement skill, that corresponds greatly with his element.
The Lin Clan is one of the greatest Earth Clan in the ClearSky Empire. Especially with their Patriarch, who is dubbed as one of the 10 Sages of the Empire, The Earth Gaia, Lin Tian.
This was also one of the numerous reasons, on why Lin Feng was hated by the Lin Clan.
As a clan that was famous for their Earth Element, someone like Lin Feng who had a wind element would obviously be doubted as true clansmen; especially since the mother is an escort.
Lin Sho charges to Lin Feng with anger.
He seems to be using a strange movement skill since he moved with agility, despite wearing a bouldering rock armor on his body.
He wasn't as fast as Lin Feng, Heck... His usual movement is even faster.
However, because of his strange movement skill, his speed wasn't as slow an elephant despite the huge appearance.
The earth trembled lightly whenever he moves; due to the heaviness. Each of his stomps made a crack on the ground.
But, if one would compare his speed to Lin Feng. He was akin to a snail.
Such as, the crowd did not believe for Lin Sho to have any chance against Lin Feng.
However, that was because they had a little to none comprehension of reading the state of the battle.
But to those hidden masters on the crowd. The situation of the battle had greatly turned-around.
True... Lin Sho was very slow, but what could Lin Feng do to him?
Unless he had some strong attacking skill that could penetrate his defense. There's nothing that he could do.
Especially since they can't use there soul-weapon.
So, even though Lin Sho looked useless against Lin Feng, he wasn't on the losing end.
Lin Sho continued to charge towards Lin Feng. He charged like a juggernaut with his humongous body.
Seeing him now... he looked like a small armored golem.
When he arrived before Lin Feng. He blasted his body like he was hitting tofu.

However, the body of Lin Feng started to disintegrate like thin smoke.
While Lin Feng's body disintegrated into thin smoke, he took the opportunity to attack the sides of Lin Sho.
He was so fast, that Lin Sho did not have the time to react.
Lin Feng wasn't using any weapon, so he used his hands and coated it with his wind essence. And created a small wind blade with his bare hands
He used this wind blade to attack Lin Sho, just like the way he did to the goons, yet this time... It was much deadlier.
And then, the sounds of metal clashing was heard.
*ching...ching...ching...*
Lin Feng was like a ghost shadow that appeared anywhere, constantly.
But... the defense of Lin Sho was really strong, and so, he dealt no damages or whatsoever.
He then, re-appeared a few meters away from Lin Sho after seeing that his attacks had dealt no damage against the rocky armor of Lin Sho.
"..."
The crowd was perplexed while watching this scene. Their expectations failed them again.
Who would've thought that the slow-oak Lin Sho's body was this tough?
Lin Feng's attack felt like he was hitting the walls of the Floating Cloud City. He did not even make a scratch, much less injure him.
"As expected of the young master, the moment he fought seriously, the tide of the battle had changed immediately." Someone from the group suddenly praised, clearly trying to gain favor from Lin Sho.
"Hahaha, You're right... You're right..." The others from their group followed up soon after. And they continued to mock Lin Feng.
"Hehehe... Is that all you got? Is this how you will teach me? Huh? Brother? Wahaahah." Lin Sho laughed and mocked.
He was overwhelming Lin Feng on their previous clash, hence, he got the confidence to win this battle.
And by the reactions from the crowd, the momentum was now in him. So, he is now back to his arrogant attitude.
But Lin Feng ignored all these jeers.
Strangely... Even though, he just lost a clash against Lin Sho. He was still... Looking calm as ever.
"Is that all you want to say?" All I want is for you to apologize and realize your mistake. I don't want to make this fiasco anything bigger than this anymore... Seeing that you still can't comprehend your own situation, then I hope this experience will be able to help you in the future."
Hearing Lin Feng's confident and gentle-manner words made Lin Sho even more pissed. He really hated it when Lin Feng acts like someone who knows everything.
Such as, he replied: "Apologies? What do I need to apologize for? And a mistake? Hahaha... What mistake? Did you really got hit in the head? Or you are just that stupid?"
"You made a very deadly mistake, and you didn't even notice it. As your elder brother, let me guide you properly. --Your mistake was..." But Lin Feng didn't finish his sentence and proceeded to close his eyes.
Lin Sho and the crowd were eagerly waiting for his next words. The atmosphere on the street was so tense, that they were so busy focusing to hear Lin Feng's next words.
And then, Lin Feng opened his eyes. But the moment he opened it. The vibe around him suddenly changed.
It felt the same when someone activates his --one with the sword-- state. But then, it became deadly and filled with intent.
The people on the empire was used to this. There are already a lot of cultivators who had reached the --one with the sword-- state on the empire, even on this city alone.
Hence, the crowd was used to it.
However, where's the weapon?
That's right... Lin Feng activated it without the use of his soul-weapon, nor an ordinary one.
They could just feel the sharp intent, surrounding him, gushing through the winds.
At this moment... Lin Sho could finally feel the danger. So, he did not waste any more time and headed for Lin Feng.
*Dug dug dug...* the ground trembled, as he rushes towards Lin Feng.
But he wasn't fast enough. Before he came close, The intent around Lin Feng got more profound.
And then he continued his sentence: "...Not being able to recognize your opponent's strength."
Then, he brought up his right hand, and energy-like, spear started to condense and form on his palms.
This wasn't his soul-weapon. No... It has a different look, compared to soul-weapons. This was pure energy or Qi.
The approaching Lin Sho did not have the time to re-organize his thoughts, and so, he continued to charge for Lin Feng.
Lin Feng tucked his armed that he brought up, to gain momentum for his thrust.
When they both neared each other, Lin Feng thrust his spear that was made by Qi, towards Lin Sho's shoulder.
The juggernaut-like Lin Sho and Lin Feng's spear Qi met each other.
But this time... There weren't any sounds of metal, clanking against each other.
No...
The spear Qi directly pierced the shoulder of Lin Sho without any trouble.
As if the rock golem armor was just akin to a marshmallow that was pierced by a stick.
Lin Sho got blown away and fell on his feet.
The crowd was so shocked, they forgot to close their wide-open mouths.
A few seconds before everyone could recover from their shock.
Lin Feng came close to him.
He looked at the injure Lin Sho at the ground and said: "Don't ever call my mother like that again! Or else, this won't end here."
He then proceeded to leave the street.
Due to the shock of the events that happened on the battle. The crowd on the street unconsciously gave way for him to leave. Like mortals who makes way for a God.
"..."
"So, that's the state of Spear Qi, huh?" Someone from above muttered unconsciously, as he watches the battle.
