"Burn the Bloodline Power?"
Zhao Letian's expression tensed, the inherited bloodline within a Martial Artist contains vast energy. Releasing it all at once can greatly enhance a Martial Artist's strength.
However, doing so also has serious side effects. Once a Martial Artist's Bloodline Power is burnt, it will become extremely weak, and their future strength will also diminish. If burnt excessively, one might even completely lose their Bloodline Power and fail to pass it on to the next generation.
Wang Yi's choice to burn his Bloodline Power meant he was prepared to fight to the death with Zhao Letian; it also indicated that Zhao Letian had pushed him into a corner. Otherwise, he would not resort to such a self-damaging tactic, hurting the enemy at the cost of his own severe injury.
"Stop! Wang Yi, stop it right now! Burning your Bloodline Power will ruin your future!" Wang Zhao's complexion changed drastically as he shouted at Wang Yi.
Bloodline Power is closely related to a Martial Artist's natural talent. A strong Bloodline Power assists in speeding up cultivation, improving perception, and increasing strength. Once Wang Yi burns his Bloodline Power, even if he survives, his martial arts talent will severely decline, and he will no longer be worthy of being called a prodigy.
"Big brother, there's no other way. If I don't burn my Bloodline Power, I'll surely die today." Wang Yi stared coldly at Zhao Letian with a continuously rising aura and eyes filled with vengeful hatred. Zhao Letian had forced him to sacrifice his martial path; he was resolved to tear Zhao Letian into thousands of pieces.
"Zhao Letian, stop the fight. If you continue, you are bound to die. My brother, after burning his Bloodline Power, is definitely not someone you can withstand. There is no deep-rooted hatred between you two; there is no need to fight to the death. As long as you surrender, I can allow Wang Yi to spare your life." Wang Zhao looked at Zhao Letian anxiously, hoping to stop the battle before Wang Yi completely burned his Bloodline Power. A Zhao Letian from some rural place was not worth his brother ruining his martial path.

"Spare my life? No need. Let him burn his Bloodline Power as much as he wants. If he can kill me, good for him." Zhao Letian glanced contemptuously at Wang Zhao, then indifferently withdrew his gaze, not in a hurry to act. He needed an external pressure to stimulate his body's potential and find an opportunity for a breakthrough, finally advancing to the True Martial Third Realm. Wang Yi, who had burned his Bloodline Power, might not disappoint him.
"This bastard." Wang Zhao was both anxious and angry, not expecting Zhao Letian to be someone unafraid of death.
In an instant, Wang Yi had completely burned his Bloodline Power, and his aura broke through directly to the True Martial Fourth Realm, stepping into the Middle Stage True Martial Realm.
"True Martial Fourth Realm? Very well." Zhao Letian's gaze sharpened, and the True Yuan Power surged in his body, revealing a strong will to fight.
"Zhao Letian, I want you dead. Gale Sword Technique, kill!"
After fully burning his Bloodline Power, Wang Yi, knowing his martial path was already destroyed, revealed a frantic look in his eyes, took out a Spiritual Weapon Longsword, and charged straight at Zhao Letian. Today, at any cost, he was determined to slay Zhao Letian.
"What incredible speed. Dragon Roar Nine Sword, slash!"
Zhao Letian was slightly startled and hurriedly swung his longsword to counter the attack. After burning his Bloodline Power, Wang Yi's overall speed had increased a lot. Both his speed and attack power had undergone a qualitative leap and must not be underestimated.
The two longswords collided, and the domineering energy dispersed, causing both Zhao Letian and Wang Yi to be blown back over ten meters.
"He's still not dead? Damn it!"
Wang Yi was both shocked and furious. He hadn't expected that even after burning his Bloodline Power, he could only fight Zhao Letian to a standstill. This was not the result he wanted.
"Again." Zhao Letian's eyes, on the other hand, showed excitement. Swinging his longsword, he charged forward once more. At this point, Wang Yi was a worthy opponent, finally putting some pressure on him, giving him a faint touch of the chance for a breakthrough.
"I want you, dead! Dead! Dead!"
Wang Yi, as if driven mad, completely ignored defense and focused solely on attacking. He withstood Zhao Letian's sword light, aiming each strike at the vital points on Zhao Letian's body, forcing Zhao Letian to dodge repeatedly and struggle to find the chance to counterattack.
Always dodging, it was inevitable that there would be mistakes. Caught off guard, Zhao Letian was slashed across the chest by Wang Yi's sword, tearing his white robe and leaving a long gash on the Defensive Armor he was wearing.
"Hahahaha, I've finally hit you. Go die!"
Wang Yi, having succeeded with a move, laughed triumphantly and swung his longsword even more fiercely at Zhao Letian. At this moment, his own Defensive Armor was already covered with sword marks and the Spirit Light was dimming, on the brink of complete destruction.
"I can't keep this up. He has an Armor Martial Soul; even if my Inner Armor breaks, he still has a strong defense. Whereas I, despite having three-layered Xuan Armor, am not as protected as his Armor Martial Soul. Once my Inner Armor is breached, the tide of battle will turn against me," thought Zhao Letian, as he continued to fight while pondering.
He could counterattack Wang Yi right now, but his attacks were still lacking sufficient force to deal a fatal blow. Moreover, facing a faster Wang Yi who had burned his Bloodline Power, his hit probability with each attack was much lower. The most direct method to kill Wang Yi was to breakthrough to the True Martial Third Realm.
As the pressure in his heart grew, Zhao Letian felt the opportunity for a breakthrough becoming clearer and clearer. Finally, a moment of enlightenment flashed in his eyes; he had completely grasped the chance to break through, revealing a relieved smile on his face.
"So that's it. He planned on using Wang Yi's power to force his own breakthrough. He's got guts," Young Master Ye finally understood Zhao Letian's true purpose for agreeing to the duel with Wang Yi and nodded in approval.
The next moment, endless Primordial Energy from heaven and earth converged and poured into Zhao Letian's body. His aura skyrocketed at an astonishing rate, and in the blink of an eye, he effortlessly broke through to the True Martial Third Realm.
In addition, the instant his cultivation reached the True Martial Third Realm, Zhao Letian's "Nine-layered Profound Armor Technique" finally accumulated the Four-layered Profound Armor Power, giving a qualitative leap to his Physical Strength.
"True Martial Third Realm? So what, you're still going to die!"
Wang Yi had fallen into a state of frenzy, completely failing to consider how strong Zhao Letian could be after his breakthrough to the True Martial Third Realm. He attacked without care for his defense, his sword fiercely striking at Zhao Letian.
"Your speed is too slow, your defense is nothing."
Having broken through, Zhao Letian was filled with confidence. He knew very well that Wang Yi was no longer his match at this point. His hands were covered with four layers of dense and tough Black Scale Armor. With a very casual punch, he first shattered Wang Yi's Armor Martial Soul, then his Defensive Inner Armor, sending a bloodied Wang Yi slamming forcefully onto the Array Formation Light Shield.
