X-Dragon Era-Chapter 685 - s 486-487: Fantasy Dream Team
Punching, kicking, palm striking, elbow ramming, head butting, tail sweeping, under the watchful eyes of all the spectators, Yinglong instantly transformed into a ferocious giant dragon, meeting force with force, he successively crushed four opponents one after the other. Even though Xin Yun was also surrounded by enemies, for Xin Yun, the first round of the competition had ended.
Indeed, as Xin Yun crushed the tenth opponent, a blazing white light circle flashed around him. As the white light passed, Yinglong's figure instantly disappeared from the battlefield. When his vision was restored, Xin Yun found himself back on the starting platform, with the intense battle happening not far away in the sky.
Looking around, other team members had not returned; Xin Yun was still the first one to finish the match. While observing, a flash of white light suddenly appeared next to him, and the next moment... a young man clad in pitch-black armor appeared beside Xin Yun, returning merely about three seconds later than him.
Black hair, black eyes, black armor, and ghastly pale skin, looking at this handsome and upright young man, Xin Yun squinted his eyes sharply. Unexpectedly... really unexpectedly, he was in the same group as this guy!
In the last life, among the Nine Great Experts of the world, the first-ranked naturally was the Emperor Sword Dragon—Po Kong! Second was the Obliterating Sand Dragon—Cang Mang, third was the Peacock Dragon—Ming Xuan, and the fourth was this man with black hair, black eyes, and pale skin clad in black armor, the Dark Magic Dragon—An Xi!

This An Xi was no ordinary person, with a status comparable to Po Kong's, he was the Young Clan Leader of the Demon Dragon Clan. The Dark Magic Dragon he commanded was immune to all energy attacks, and his physical defense was exceptionally strong. Moreover, he possessed immense strength, especially his Fire Series energy attacks which were of a destructive level. One use of the World's End attack, the most powerful wide-range attack, could instantly reduce a super-large city to ruins!
At first glance, this guy seemed invincible. However, that was not the case. Every creature has its strengths and weaknesses, and the Dark Magic Dragon was the same. Although it had super strong defenses and fierce attacks, it was too heavy and not agile enough. Otherwise, its ranking might be even higher.
In fact, none of the Nine Great Experts were simple; they were all invincible beings. Even if the first-ranked, Po Kong, faced the ninth-ranked, the outcome would be undecided. The rankings of the Nine Great Experts were actually based on past achievements and reputation, not necessarily meaning the first was the most formidable, nor the ninth the weakest. Many things could not be compared.
While Xin Yun was observing An Xi, An Xi was also observing Xin Yun. Although it appeared to the average onlooker that both men finished the match almost simultaneously, one should know even a three-second difference was significant enough to set them apart.
Generally, among the Nine Great Experts, there were very few records of direct confrontation. Everyone cherished their reputation and would not easily battle without absolute certainty. More often, they engaged in indirect comparisons like what was happening now.
A three-second lead might not seem much, but doubtless, in this indirect clash, Xin Yun had won. In the comparison between the two, Xin Yun had claimed the first victory. If Xin Yun later became one of the Nine Great Experts, this victory would weigh heavily. Unless his opponent could win in a future match, Xin Yun would undoubtedly rank above An Xi.
Xin Yun remained silent, and An Xi made no sound either. The two looked at each other for a while... no one knew who was first, but eventually, they both simultaneously turned their heads and looked up at the sky, waiting for the third person to finish the battle, who had yet to appear.
On the platform, although Xin Yun's surface was calm, his heart was ecstatic beyond measure. Now, Xin Yun was truly delighted; he was glad that he had made a timely and bold decision. Otherwise, a tremendous opportunity would have been lost. Oh heavens... To have an advantage over the fourth-ranked Dark Magic Dragon—An Xi from the future Nine Great Experts was extremely difficult, almost like a dream. In his former life, it was something Xin Yun didn't even dare to dream about.
Time ticked away, and more people withdrew from the competition, either due to being crushed or because their energy had been depleted, realizing they could not continue. The dragon shadows in the sky gradually thinned out.
Finally, a full ten minutes after Xin Yun and An Xi had successfully finished, the third person to achieve ten knockouts appeared. But... both Xin Yun and An Xi chose to ignore this person. Although he had also accomplished the task of knocking out ten targets, the long time he took showed a considerable gap compared to them.
However, the third person to complete the task obviously didn't think so; after all... he didn't know how long Xin Yun and An Xi had waited. In his mind, he had been fast enough. Although Xin Yun and An Xi had proceeded before him, they must have just finished recently. After all... knocking out ten targets in ten minutes was already quick enough. Could it be possible to defeat ten targets in one minute? That would literally be a myth.
Under this belief, the guy puffed out his chest and stood shoulder to shoulder with Xin Yun and An Xi, waiting for the fourth person to finish the match. In his view, the three of them were definitely the strongest trio in the first group.
