Chapter 1387: Splitsilver Braggadocio

Zhang Lie frowned again.

The Splitsilver combatant continued, "Looks like it\'s a free win for me, then."

"Isn\'t that a Splitsilver?"

Zhang Lie turned. All around him, beside the familiar arena, was a large audience stand. Countless figures of light were watching the Cup unfold. Neither their faces nor figures could be seen.

"This is almost like an online forum..."

Everyone was anonymous.

Perhaps because Zhang Lie\'s opponent was a Splitsilver, who were known for their hacks, Zhang Lie\'s arena quickly became packed.

Many observers were here to see what sorts of hacks the Splitsilver had prepared for this iteration of the Cup.

The figures of light shouted, "What sorts of hacks will you show us this time around?"

The Splitsilver combatant shouted back, "Slander! Slander and calumny! I\'m innocent."

"Innocent? The last iteration of the Cup, I saw one of your fellow competitors execute a hack before getting banned!"

The Splitsilver combatant\'s face flushed red as he disputed, "We make technological advances. It\'s technology! How can that be considered hacking?"

The figures of light all roared in laughter, giving the Cup a surprisingly cheerful atmosphere.

Zhang Lie walked up to the arena. "Let\'s start. Don\'t waste everyone\'s time."

The Splitsilver combatant stepped down the stairs, unhurried. "What, are you trying to rush to your death?"

The figures of light wondered, "What sort of race is this? I haven\'t seen their like before in the previous iterations of the Cup."

"Must be someone weak."

"How unlucky they are to have encountered a Splitsilver from the start!"

"Well, it\'s a weakling, isn\'t it? It\'s doomed to lose anyway."

The Splitsilver combatant waved a hand impatiently. "If you don\'t want to waste everyone\'s time, you should surrender. You don\'t stand a chance, after all."

"Do you think you\'re sure to win with your hacks, then?"

The Splitsilver combatant hmphed at him. "Against you, a hack would be a waste!"

Zhang Lie curled a finger, taunting him.

The Splitsilver combatant shot forward with a punch straight toward his skull with a silver burst of light.

Genetic energy surged through Zhang Lie\'s body as he radiated light. Pale-blue genetic energy exploded all around him as he held up an arm in self-defense.

On impact, Zhang Lie was sent flying.

The Splitsilver combatant frowned. "You do have some strength, after all..."

"Meanwhile, it looks like you aren\'t very strong without your hacks." Zhang Lie slowly walked forward, pale-blue genetic energy surging around him, roiling like the tides.

The Splitsilver combatant in front of him didn\'t feel any different from the one he had encountered in Bu Wentian\'s trial. The latter might even have been quite a bit stronger, considering that the latter was surely weakened when pulled from Bu Wentian\'s memories.

The spectators of light gaped at Zhang Lie.

"Just what galaxy did this strange challenger come from, to be able to fight a Splitsilver combatant to a standstill?"

Although it was well known that the Splitsilver race enjoyed using hacks in the Cup, almost like a local custom of sorts, which the spectators laughed at and anticipated, the Splitsilvers were still a very strong race.

It was therefore astounding to see a Splitsilver combatant being unable to defeat the unknown combatant before him.

With explosive force, divine light radiated from Zhang Lie as he soared into the sky, causing everything around him to shake.

"[Fists of the Silent Sea: Soar]!"

Pale blue genetic energy rippled about Zhang Lie\'s arms. He flicked his wrists, causing a frightening aura to descend on the world. The sky began to darken, and a fish the size of a whale materialized in the air.

A howling gale swept over the space. As more and more genetic energy gathered around Zhang Lie\'s arms, it looked as though he were at the heart of a whirlpool.

A huge wave soared into the air. As Zhang Lie punched forward, the fish slammed its huge tail on the ground and sent a torrent of water surging.

Ripples of energy spread out from Zhang Lie, warping the space around him. The towering waves looked like enraged black dragons, flooding the space.

The world reverberated with force. As the waves burst apart, the air filled with echoes of Zhang Lie\'s signature genetic energy, shattering space and swallowing up all life in its vicinity. Light and shadow danced in the air.

The Splitsilver combatant before Zhang Lie was sent flying by a huge wave of force.

"[The Boundless Blade: Yawning Wave]!"

Water-attuned genetic energy encircled Zhang Lie\'s finger as he unleashed devastating sword energy.

One of the Splitsilver combatant\'s arms was chopped off. A raging shark surfed toward it atop a wave of sword energy.

The Splitsilver combatant cried out as a silver light illuminated the arena.

The silver light shone down with glaring intensity. It broke apart at its highest point and unfolded to form a silver lotus, with formless runes that spread throughout heaven and earth. Silver roots extended from its base and into the natural law of the space.

Zhang Lie felt his body being restrained by the silver roots to such an extent that even moving became difficult.

The Splitsilver combatant wiped at the blood by his lips. "You\'re rather strong, to be able to push me to this extent, but that\'s it!"

"Scram! [Ninecarp Transformation]!"

A black serpent materialized behind Zhang Lie, by now so large and so developed that it resembled the world-swallowing serpent Jormungandr. It let out a threatening hiss as its scales clicked together.

Pitch-black genetic energy revolved around Zhang Lie like dark clouds, then exploded forth in his vicinity, immediately dispelling the pressure around himself.

The Splitsilver combatant gaped in fright, and the spectators watched on in shock.

This unknown combatant had just staged an upset!

He had to be the dark horse of this iteration of the Cup.

The Splitsilver combatant, however, suddenly calmed down after seemingly hearing something by his ear. He proclaimed coolly, "I acknowledge that you\'re a rather strong opponent considering your nameless race, but the Splitsilvers won\'t go down easily!"
