Everra had never encountered such a situation before.
The punch he thought had landed squarely on Lin Ran's body inexplicably passed through Lin Ran's body!
What the hell! How is this possible!?
Frankly, Everra had never encountered such a frustrating event, no matter how powerful the enemy he faced before.
It was one thing if a sure-hit attack was dodged, but now he simply couldn't hit. Where was the logic in that?!
Could it be that he had just experienced an illusion caused by some peculiar mirror reflection?
The intelligent Everra instantly thought of this possibility.
So, he immediately closed his eyes, thinking they might have been influenced by Lin Ran, and began to analyze Lin Ran's position based on his senses.
To the left!
Sensing the energy fluctuation, Everra, without a second thought, threw a punch into the air.
Hit me!
Unfortunately, fate was not on his side. That soft, empty feeling of a missed hit once again overwhelmed his entire being...
No! Impossible!!
Even if everything else was wrong, his judgment of scent could never be wrong!
Unbelieving, Everra hurriedly opened his eyes and once again witnessed the scene that made him question his very existence.
His incredibly solid fist, carrying a monstrous gust of wind, still passed through Lin Ran's body.
Even more so this time, as he hadn't retracted his hand in time, he could clearly see how his fist was completely disconnected from Lin Ran's body...
Facing such a bizarre scene, let alone Everra in the arena, the expressions of the watching audience and the strategizing contestants were all more wonderful than the last.
"Uh... if I'm not mistaken, did Everra's fist just go through Lin Ran's body?"
"Yeah... you're probably not mistaken, because in my eyes, it appeared the same..."
"Damn! What's going on?! Someone can actually do this?!"
"Is it an illusion? But it doesn't look like it..."
"If it were an illusion, it should only affect Everra alone!"
"You're not suggesting Lin Ran is so audacious as to cast an illusion that envelops all of us here?! That's too exaggerated..."
"But if it's not an illusion, then it must be some kind of special ability..."
"This ability to completely immunize oneself from others' attacks is simply too overpowered!"
"It really is overpowered... because this immunity doesn't just negate damage."
"It negates all kinds of effects from others' skills as well!"
"Damn it! If I could use this move, I'd basically be unstoppable!"
"This Lin Ran is so full of tricks that it's completely incomprehensible..."
"..."
Facing the new ability Lin Ran had once again conjured from his sleeve, these contestants, who had been astonished by him countless times already, were completely speechless.
This guy was like a bottomless pit that never ran dry, always pulling out some new trick.
And each of his new tricks was more heaven-defying than the last.
Even a tiny fraction of it would be something everyone would fight over.
Lin Ran was truly a hair-raising existence...
Those who hadn't personally faced Lin Ran as an enemy were already feeling panicked in the stands. Could Everra, who was enduring this pressure on stage, still hold on?
He couldn't!
After a series of punches, like a fierce storm, all landing on empty air, Everra's expression clearly began to falter.
The continuous, powerless futility was devastating to his morale, forcing him to temporarily retract his hands and begin contemplating his next move.
Of course, he had to think fast!
After all, he was still burning under the Amaterasu released by Lin Ran!
For every second he delayed, he would endure the scorching of Amaterasu for an additional second, which was extremely disadvantageous.
Seeing Everra momentarily stunned, Lin Ran chuckled happily:
"Hey, did you burn your brain out?"
"You don't actually think I won't attack you, do you?"
Hearing Lin Ran's words, Everra's expression completely changed as if waking from a dream.
Right! He just couldn't hit Lin Ran, but that didn't mean Lin Ran couldn't hit him!
Lin Ran could attack him at any moment and disrupt his thoughts!
But just as he realized this, Lin Ran's offensive arrived precisely on cue...
Kamui!
A spatial vortex, tearing through everything, suddenly appeared on Everra's chest, giving him no time to think at all.
Faced with this sudden turn of events, a strong sense of crisis urged Everra to desperately shift his body slightly to the side, trying to avoid a vital point as much as possible.
Even so, Lin Ran's Kamui did not miss, leaving a wound on his robust body that was deep enough to see bone.
"Ughhhh!"
Spitting out a mouthful of blood, Everra looked at the wound on his chest in horror.
His incredibly resilient body, which could be described as monstrous, was so easily breached?
What kind of skill was the attack Lin Ran had just used?
Everra, whose attention was captured by Lin Ran on the stage, couldn't see clearly, but the audience and contestants below saw it all.
Arthur stroked his chin:
"Is it a spatial ability?"
Caesar nodded, his face full of emotion:
"Indeed, it's a spatial ability..."
"And it looks like a spatial ability capable of tearing through space..."
"The attack power and destructive potential of such a spatial ability are extremely terrifying—as evident from how he could directly breach the defenses of Everra, who has excellent physical defense."
"It's almost impossible to resist this attack relying solely on defense."
"What a terrifying pair of eyes... capable of dodging all attacks and tearing through all defenses..."
"To think that such perfection could exist in this world..."
Catherine sighed faintly:
"What a terrifying young man..."
"I'm already hesitant to imagine what it would be like if he appeared in this competition ten years from now..."
"Even setting aside other things, just that secret technique capable of killing a Flipping Sea Demon Whale would be enough for him to directly secure victory in any single match."
"If you add those other miscellaneous special abilities, it's likely we'll see a situation in team matches where one person single-handedly crushes the entire opposing team..."
"With someone like him, it's possible that the Dragon Kingdom could achieve an unprecedented five consecutive championships in the next five to ten years!"
