Although he is now an Upper Rank Martial King and seems to be just one small realm away from becoming a Martial Emperor, the real gap between them is like a chasm.
Lin Feng can use top-level cultivation techniques and soul skills to bridge this gap, but it is only a patch.
The strength and defense of his physical body at this time should not be inferior to Baruch, and might even be slightly stronger, but his control over Spiritual Power is far behind, or rather, not on the same level.
A faint purple light gleamed beneath his feet, and Lin Feng shot towards Baruch like lightning.
He intended to engage in close combat.
Baruch evidently guessed this, but he did not dodge.
A Martial Emperor facing a Martial King and being afraid of close combat would be too humiliating.
In the eyes of the crowd, he wanted to defeat Lin Feng honorably and thus obtain the position of Celestial King.
