Chapter 339_2
The familiar dull clang of metal striking metal and the familiar massive waves of airflow spread out, sweeping everyone off their feet and into the air once more.
“F*ck me, it’s like a goddamn nuclear explosion! It’s not a natural disaster, it’s Mr. Xue brawling with someone!”
“We need to get the hell out of here. Staying might affect Mr. Xue’s performance, worrying about us!”
“But… where the hell can we run to?”
Everyone was extremely shocked at the sight of the two monstrous figures battling in the distance.
Each move was earth-shattering and terrifying, hitting their mark cleanly. Both their control over Power was exquisite, with every punch efficiently targeting their opponent, not causing much disturbance. However, if there was any other object nearby, like trees, the ground, or any unlucky creature that happened to pass by and get hit, the leakage of their Power could result in a minor natural disaster.
In the midst of the fight, the two would randomly change positions at frightening speeds, leaving onlookers clueless about which direction to flee to stay away from them.
The tumultuous noise attracted more and more people’s attention. From area A1 to D9 within the Steel Tree Sea, thirty-six exam areas, many examiners from not too distant areas approached curiously due to the commotion. Enjoy new adventures from My Virtual Library Empire
Wei Yuzhao, his body ablaze with blood energy, appeared silently on a huge golden vine, observing the fierce battle between the two not far away.
“Huh?”
He furrowed his brows, sensing a familiar energy emanating from Xue Jing, and his gaze hardened as he examined Xue Jing’s hair and eyes for a long while.
“Is this… the power of True Red? What’s going on, how could he…”
Zhou Yinglin arrived at the scene and, together with a few examiners, watched Xue Jing fiercely battling Li Suisui, their eagle-like sharp eyes twitching in disbelief.
No, how much time has passed, what is this situation?
That’s Li Suisui… a super monster of historic proportions, someone he didn’t even dare fantasize about comparing himself to.
Martial Artists deem Breakthroughs as major milestones, each representing a huge disparity, as if one were heaven and the other earth. A common person who has never had a Breakthrough is as different from someone who has as a superhero is from an ordinary person. The same applies to the difference between someone who has had a Second Breakthrough and someone who has had just one.
But why… Xue Jing, who had not yet had a Breakthrough during their fight at U19, could now exchange blows and even seem to be dominating Li Suisui, who had achieved a Second Breakthrough?
Even… it seemed that he was subtly suppressing Li Suisui.
“This can’t be.”
His lips trembled slightly as he murmured, a sense of despair rising in his heart.
The shadow that loomed over his heart grew even more immense.
“…This is nothing like the intel you gave us, Zhou.”
A fellow examiner looked at Zhou Yinglin with narrowed eyes, a hint of danger in his gaze.
Judging by Xue Jing’s displayed combat power, only Li Suisui could stand a chance against him. Anyone else going up against him would just be delivering themselves to their doom.
If they didn’t have this foreknowledge and carelessly sought him out, it would probably spell an outright annihilation.
Zhou Yinglin remained silent.
“…Forget it, facing that kind of monster, it’s normal for someone of your level not to see his true depth. It looks like the Conservative Faction’s old guys have completely miscalculated this time. They thought that bringing Li Suisui in was a major safeguard, but they didn’t expect…”
“Now it’s up to Li Suisui, there’s nothing else we can do to help. Going there would probably just cause more chaos. Let’s hope he can win. If he can’t, then we’ll have to settle for plan B, ruin his Martial Arts Examination score this time so he doesn’t obtain the ‘golden body’ and make it harder for us to deal with him in the future…”
“Fortunately, the higher-ups prepared a fail-safe card, just in case…”
…
Xue Jing felt exhilarated.
Being able to fight evenly matched, fist to flesh, full force, with nothing but his own martial arts and physical power was an experience he seldom had.
Finding someone with comparable strength was extremely difficult.
His past opponents were either too strong in the wrong way, had bizarre abilities that weren’t satisfying enough to fight against, or were easily crushed and instantly killed by him.
It was truly rare to have an opponent who could go toe-to-toe with fists meeting flesh in martial arts combat.
“Boom——!!”
Another punch exploded, as Xue Jing relentlessly overpowered the child who was four or five years younger than himself, still of elementary middle school age, continually bombarding the opponent’s face with a spiral punch brimming with blood energy.
Li Suisui showed no signs of weakness, her hands dancing as she blocked and dissipated the force while seeking opportunities to counterattack.
The speed of their movements was unbelievably fast. Between each punch and kick, any action could tear through the air with sonic booms, and the surrounding winds whirled wildly, as mere residual waves were enough to produce effects akin to natural disasters.
“You kid, you really make me happy.”
Xue Jing vibrated his body, raising a hand to lift Li Suisui into the air.
The blood autonomously circulated, with no need for any breathing skills to channel energy beforehand. An Eye-Dotting move swept out with the sound of a dragon’s chant shaking the void, targeting his abdomen with a sharpness burning with blood energy.
At this moment, due to his blood control abilities, his control over his body had almost reached the level of a Limit-Breaking Grandmaster. His ultimate moves came as easily as picking something up, no longer reserved for determining victory but rather used as a common technique even during regular sparring.
As a legitimate Limit-Breaking Grandmaster, Li Suisui was the same. Her consciousness enveloped her physical form, and her bodily control surpassed that of Xue Jing. Performing a roll in midair, her hands turned into a grabbing stance, twisting at the tips of Xue Jing’s fingers.
The extremely condensed, sharp red Qi Force was peeled away layer by layer in this twist, as if it were being fed through a meat grinder, grinding it down to nothing.
Cutting, dissipating force, colliding, softening… Xue Jing felt the effects of hundreds of different powers at work, which, in perfect cooperation with each other, completely dismantled the Eye-Dotting move with extreme finesse.
In the end, a single touch remained with hardly any lethal force left.
“What kind of move is this?”
Xue Jing asked, extremely intrigued.
Li Suisui’s expression was indifferent, “Just the basic application of the All Things Myriad Phases Flow.”
Xue Jing’s eyes lit up, “I’m very interested… how about you teach me one technique, and I’ll exchange another martial art with you.”
He could feel that the All Things Myriad Phases Flow practiced by Li Suisui would greatly aid him.
The Near-God Move ‘Return to Nothingness·Unity’ that he himself was conceiving had some similarities to the technique Li Suisui had just used.
The All Things Myriad Phases Flow might well become a solid foundation for creating ‘Return to Nothingness·Unity’, so it would no longer be a rootless idea floating only in his imagination!
