Chapter 765 - 382: Long Dangdang’s Strongest Form_2
This state of Long Dangdang was enough to give an explanation to the Warriors Temple. She said she understood because she realized what Long Dangdang’s strongest state looked like, which was exactly what Wang Changxin wanted to see. She also understood that Long Dangdang’s immediate release of this state was to avoid creating harm and conflict, a classic case of winning battles without fighting.
During the quarterfinals’ third match, Wang Changxin from the Warriors Temple voluntarily admitted defeat. Thus, Long Dangdang won and became the third competitor to advance to the semifinals.
Streams of light gradually separated from Long Dangdang, starting with five colorful rays that merged back into Little Eight’s massive body. A door of light opened and Little Eight disappeared within. Then, one by one, clones separated from him. The spirit furnaces glowed before retracting their lights. Finally, the Adamantine Cathedra battle armor reverted to its foundational form, revealing Long Dangdang’s true self. This process took an entire minute and looked remarkably peculiar.
To the onlooker, Long Dangdang was the same as before the match, with no visible changes. However, Long Kongkong, who was standing at the edge of the arena, sensed something wrong and quickly rushed towards the exit.
Long Dangdang calmly exited the arena. As soon as Long Kongkong seized his brother’s wrist, he felt a pulling force emanating from Long Dangdang’s body. His peculiar Purple-Gold Bloodline Power began to flow and Long Dangdang directly absorbed about one-tenth of it.
Only after doing that did Long Dangdang’s body appeared noticeably relaxed while Long Kongkong could distinctly feel that his older brother’s body was hollow, as if the powerful bloodline energy had disappeared without a trace.
Long Kongkong looked at Long Dangdang in shock, but Long Dangdang gently shook his head to indicate that he was fine.
Ling Menglu noticed Long Kongkong’s reaction and hurried over. Just as she was about to perform healing magic, Long Dangdang grabbed her hand and reassured her, saying "I’m fine, don’t worry. Kongkong, your turn."
With three out of four matches in the quarterfinals completed, only the last contest remained. The representatives of the Knights Temple, Long Kongkong, and the Soul Temple, Lu Yinzhi, had a lot riding on their duel. Whichever one lost would mean no one from their respective temples could advance to the top four.
