The drawing results for the top 4 were released, immediately prompting analysts from around the world to weigh in.

In their view, the pairing of Huo Luofu against Lin Zhen and Ai Er against Duke meant that it was practically guaranteed that Huo Luofu would be crowned the champion.

Admittedly, Lin Zhen’s spiritual power was strong, as evidenced by his victory over Shah in which the latter did not stand a chance. However, what was the one thing that Huo Luofu was least afraid of?

As someone whose spiritual power was already solidified, the answer was spiritual mind masters!

Lin Zhen’s spiritual power attacks would be rendered useless against Huo Luofu, and considering that Lin Zhen’s body was still severely injured, how could this battle proceed?

It was predicted that Huo Luofu would easily pass the challenge of Lin Zhen and then face off against the winner of Duke and Ai Er’s match.

Both of those opponents were similarly matched, so no matter who won, they would have to go all out, providing Huo Luofu with an opportunity to take the crown with ease.

Seeing this grouping, Lin Zhen was secretly pained. If his condition was perfect, he would not be afraid of Huo Luofu, even if the latter had advanced to the brink of the Star Realm.

But with his injuries hindering his ability to engage in a prolonged battle and his spiritual power unable to harm his opponent, the fight was about to get a lot more difficult.

Even if Lin Zhen could win, what if the brain worm was controlling Huo Luofu?

Lin Zhen didn’t know if a brain worm could control someone with solidified spiritual power, but if it could control a Star Realm Huo Luofu, that would be far more terrifying than a Star Realm Old John.

Moreover, he couldn’t have Xiao Nuan accompany him in the fight, which virtually eliminated any possibility of victory.

However, no matter what, they had already reached this point, so Lin Zhen had to keep fighting.

At this time, Hua Xia was in a state of celebration because Lin Zhen had reached the top four. As long as he was in the top four, he would secure at least fourth place within the War God Alliance.

This was considered a significant achievement, and Lin Zhen was already a hero. The Hua Xia people were truly celebrating, and they strongly hoped that Lin Zhen could create another miracle by defeating Huo Luofu, practically guaranteeing Hua Xia’s victory.

Even the Hua Xia higher-ups were involved, stating that if Lin Zhen could win the championship, he would be hailed a national hero and they would grant him any request, so long as it did not betray the interests of the nation.

But Lin Zhen had no guarantees, and in his past life, Hua Xia had also reached the top four of the War God’s Knockout. Did this mean that in this life, after he was reborn, Hua Xia was fated to repeat the same path?

“No! I have to win this battle. It’s as if the finals have come early, and I absolutely cannot lose.”

After calming himself for a while, Lin Zhen silently put on his Virtual Helmet as the competition time approached, waiting to enter the arena.

At an empty spot in the Jiangbei Villa area, An Ning was also anxiously waiting. She hadn’t gone home and had come directly here after leaving Lin Zhen’s house, waiting for someone to arrive.

After waiting for a while without seeing anyone, An Ning became impatient and made a phone call.

The call was picked up on the other end by Su Mingyue.

“Yue’er, haven’t you arrived yet?”

“I’ll be there soon. I secretly took my master’s flying vehicle, and I’m already more than halfway there. How is Lin Zhen?”

“The top four battles are about to begin, but his injuries still haven’t healed. I just checked the internet, and he’s actually going up against Huo Luofu. How can he fight in this condition?”

“Don’t worry, I’ll be there soon. As long as he isn’t eliminated, I’ll use my radiant power to heal him. I’ve already grasped the power of the light molecules, so my healing speed is very fast. Combined with your water element, we might even be able to heal Lin Zhen completely.”

“But it’s not a good idea to disturb someone wearing a Virtual Helmet, as even a slight rejection of our powers could cause severe damage. Do… do you have confidence in this?” An Ning was not very reassured.

Su Mingyue was silent for a moment: “An Ning, don’t worry. Lin Zhen and I have both absorbed the companion star crystals, and our radiant power is from the same source, so there definitely won’t be any rejection.”

An Ning was taken aback for a moment before a hint of melancholy appeared on her face, half-jokingly and half-seriously saying, ‘Yue’er, you’re making me jealous.”

To her surprise, Su Mingyue responded, “An Ning, I’m actually a little jealous of you too, because… because you are Lin Zhen’s first love.”

Hearing Su Mingyue’s candid words, An Ning couldn’t help but smile, and all her previous frustrations evaporated: “Hurry up and get here so that we can give him a surprise.”

“Okay!” Su Mingyue nodded solemnly, pushing the flying vehicle to accelerate even further, only to realize she had already reached its maximum speed.

Once again, the arena appeared. This time, Lin Zhen didn’t bother looking at the audience seats; his entire focus was on Huo Luofu, who was standing opposite him.

Huo Luofu was as wild and domineering as ever. Standing more than two meters tall and weighing nearly 200 kilograms, his exaggeratedly muscular frame resembled a massive polar bear.

His mere presence emitted an unstoppable aura.

As Lin Zhen appeared in the arena, Huo Luofu’s mouth spread wide in a grin:

“Lin Zhen, do you know how long I’ve been waiting for this battle?” “I don’t know, but I do know that I’ve been waiting for a very long time too.”

“Haha, Lin Zhen, since the day you killed my brother Ivan, our fates have been to be enemies. You also eliminated three of my friends in the preliminary rounds, humiliating them in my homeland. I remember all of this vividly, and the War God’s Knockout is only the beginning of your nightmare.” As Huo Luofu spoke, he took massive steps towards Lin Zhen.

“When I heard of my brother’s death, I swore to exact revenge on you. Unfortunately, travel between our countries was restricted at the time, allowing you, a rat-like person, to live a few more years. But now is the perfect time: just as you are about to rise to prominence, I will ruthlessly crush you and then…”

Huo Luofu had already approached Lin Zhen, “And then in reality, I will definitely find your home, tear you and your family into shreds, and your two girlfriends, they will all be brutally ravaged to death by me. I, Huo Luofu, swear on my life that this will happen!”

Lin Zhen looked into Huo Luofu’s eyes, “I also swear on my life that you will never have such an opportunity. You cannot win today’s War God’s Knockout, and I will hunt you down afterward, grinding you into ashes and exterminating your soul!”

“Hehe! What a spirited little fellow you are.

Huo Luofu suddenly roared, and light flashed on his body as several Star Artifacts appeared at once.

Top-quality Star Artifact warhammer, top-quality Star Artifact armor and helmet, top-quality Star Artifact shield!

“In order to deal with you and win this War God’s Knockout, my country has provided me with full support. How ridiculous, Lin Zhen, do you still think you have a chance? Just die!”

The giant warhammer in his hand was like the Hammer of the Thunder God. With one swing, spatial rifts appeared in the virtual environment!

An attack with the power of the Star Realm!

The innate power of Huo Luofu, who had reached the Semi-Star Realm, had the power of the Star Realm in one casual strike!

Lin Zhen’s Broken Jade Spear appeared in his hand, infused with golden energy that raised its level to that of the top-quality Star Artifact, as he resisted Huo Luofu’s attack immovable like a mountain!

He couldn’t dodge the first strike, as it would only boost Huo Luofu’s arrogance. He had to let his opponent know that he would not be defeated easily, so he quickly began the real battle!

“Boom!”

With this strike, the virtual arena began to tremble, and the scenes people saw on the screens were also shaking.

At this moment, 70% of the people around the world covered their ears, as the impact sound from the virtual environment was too loud!

Lin Zhen’s Broken Jade Spear even momentarily bent, and while it was also a top-quality Star Artifact, the attack power of the warhammer was much stronger!

Lin Zhen did not retreat, but his body was directly hit by the immense force and propelled to the edge of the arena!

Underneath the virtual arena were simulated virtual bluestone slabs, which were incredibly tough and durable, yet Lin Zhen’s feet left two ditches in them!

At the same time, Huo Luofu stepped back several steps consecutively after his strike.

Through close-up shots from the virtual cameras, people could clearly see that there was even a slight crack in Huo Luofu’s palm, which had been injured by that attack!

“Wow!”

The whole world was shocked at this moment.

Hua Xia’s netizens were about to go crazy especially since Lin Zhen had actually withstood Huo Luofu’s attack – withstood the strike of the Semi-Star Realm innate power king – and shattered his palm!

“Lin Zhen, I freaking love you! You’re so cool!”

“Lin Zhen is amazing. You are the pride of Hua Xia, I will never badmouth you again.”

“Woo… I’m so moved I want to cry, maybe there really will be a miracle.”

“Lin Zhen, please grant me a child, they will definitely have the best genes in the world. I promise I won’t bother you, just give me a little bit of what’s left over from Su Saintess and An Ning.”

On the other hand, the War Gods from other countries were speechless, how could Lin Zhen possibly achieve this? Anyone that Huo Luofu fought was basically finished with one strike, so how was Lin Zhen able to withstand his attack?

Was there really a variable in this battle?

Inside the virtual environment, Lin Zhen lowered his spear and began to slowly move forward.

Meanwhile, Huo Luofu also gripped his warhammer and approached Lin Zhen again, the two getting closer to each other.

The atmosphere was extremely tense, people felt like they couldn’t breathe, their heartbeats quickened as they awaited an even more intense battle.

“Look! Lin Zhen’s chest!”

Someone blurted out first, and the eyes of the world fell on Lin Zhen’s chest.

Under the tightly wrapped white bandages, blood had seeped out.

With his head-to-head with Huo Luofu just now, Lin Zhen’s wound had cracked open.

If it hadn’t been for that, people might have forgotten that Lin Zhen was still badly injured.

Could Lin Zhen still fight like this?

In the doubting eyes of people, Lin Zhen finally made his move!

Instant Teleportation!

A residual image was left behind in the air, and Lin Zhen’s spear in his hand was like a rolling river, bringing up huge waves as it fiercely bombarded Huo Luofu.

“Bring it on! Let’s fight!”

Huo Luofu howled and swung his warhammer like a cold storm from Siberia, furiously clashing against Lin Zhen.

For a while, the ground shook and the mountains trembled! The entire arena was shaking, the onlookers felt unsteady on their feet, and the screens were shaking as if there was an earthquake!
