As Ling Tian and Yue Ling stepped into the Upper Realm, a heavy pressure crushed down on them.

"This gravity… it's insane…"

Suddenly—

The Beast King's warning echoed in Ling Tian's mind:

"In that world… you are nothing."

⚔️ First Battle in Upper Realm

Before they could adjust—

A powerful figure landed in front of them.

💥 BOOM!

The ground cracked.

A young warrior with a cold smile.

😈 The Rival Appears

"My name is Zhao Ren," he said.

"I've been waiting."

Ling Tian frowned.

"Waiting for what?"

Zhao Ren smirked.

"For the one marked by the Shadow Sealer."

⚔️ Battle Begins

Without warning—

⚡ FLASH!

Zhao Ren attacked.

⚔️ BOOM!

Ling Tian blocked—but was pushed back instantly.

"So fast!"

Zhao Ren laughed.

"I'm Earth Stage."

Yue Ling's eyes widened.

"That's two levels above us!"

💥 Overpowering Strength

⚡ SLAM!

Ling Tian was thrown into the ground.

Even Yue Ling's barrier cracked.

Zhao Ren walked slowly.

"You don't belong here."

🐺 Hidden Power Trigger

Ling Tian stood up slowly.

His eyes sharpened.

"I didn't come here to lose."

⚡ WHOOSH!

He activated:

Shadow Step

Light Barrier

Dark Devour

⚔️ CLASH!

This time—

He held his ground.

⚡ Unexpected Equal Fight

Zhao Ren's smile faded.

"You can fight at my level…?"

Ling Tian attacked back—

⚔️ BOOM!

Both were pushed back.

Even Zhao Ren was surprised.

👁️ Hidden Organization Watching

Far above the sky—

Several figures watched silently.

Covered in black robes.

One of them spoke:

"Target confirmed: Ling Tian."

Another said:

"Dual Core user… just like the prophecy."

A third voice—

cold and dangerous:

"Prepare to capture him."

⚡ Battle Ends (For Now)

Zhao Ren stepped back.

He looked at Ling Tian with interest.

"You're not weak…"

He turned away.

"But next time—I won't hold back."

He disappeared instantly.

🌟 Aftermath

Yue Ling ran to Ling Tian.

"That was too dangerous…"

Ling Tian looked at the sky.

"I can feel it…"

"We're being watched."
