1178 Visiting the Ancestral Dragon Temple Again
While Xi Shengmo and Xi Mingze had their conversation regarding Xi ili's future, the specific individual of their topic was walking in the streets with a bright smile on her face that made everyone around her filled with curiosity.
"I haven't seen the Princess acting this happy in awhile. Did sothing happen?"
"Do you see that young man walking beside her? That's the human who visited a year ago. Apparently, he's returned. I would bet my entire fortune that he's the reason she's so happy."
"I heard about him! He's the human who lit up all nine pillars for the Dragon Awakening Ritual, right?"
"Yes, he's that very human."
"I wonder why he's returned."
anwhile, Xi ili asked Yuan, "Hey, do you want to visit the Ancestral Dragon Temple, again?"
Yuan nodded, "Sure."
Soti later, they arrived at the Ancestral Dragon Temple, where the residents in the city go to train and spar with each other.
When they arrived, Yuan imdiately recognized a few of the faces there, as he'd fought them before.
"Look! It's Her Highness, Princess Xi!"
"Greetings, Princess Xi!"
Those who were not busy in the arena stopped whatever they were doing to greet her.
They noticed Yuan's presence afterward.
"Hey! Aren't you that human from last year?! When did you return!?" One of them recognized Yuan's appearance.
The other dragons also started to rember him.
"I arrived just today." Yuan said with a smile on his face.
"Is that so? Anyways, welco back, Yuan!"
"Hahaha! Perfect! Looks like I can finally get my revenge! Fight , Yuan!"
"No! Let fight him first! I've been itching for revenge since my defeat last year!"
Yuan was quickly surrounded by these passionate fighters.
He tried to calm them down, "Relax, everyone here will get a turn to fight ."
Xi ili then asked him, "Do you want the sa rules as last ti and fight as a Spirit Master?"
"Let's increase the limit. I am a peak Spirit King now, after all."
"Eh?" Xi ili and the others suddenly beca silent.
"P-Peak Spirit King?" Xi ili uttered in a dazed voice.
Xi ili was so overjoyed by Yuan's return that she didn't even notice his cultivation base until he ntioned it.
As for the others, they weren't thinking about it until they recalled that he was only a Spirit Grandmaster the last ti he visited!
"Heavens! You're already a peak Spirit King?! You were only a Spirit Grandmaster last year! How did you improve so fast?!" Xi ili exclaid in a shocked voice after snapping out of her daze.
"It just happened, I guess…" If they knew that Yuan had barely even cultivated to reach that level, not even the Heavens would know how they'd react.
"As expected of the one who awakened all nine pillars during the Dragon Awakening Ritual… Your talents are quite sothing…"
Yuan chuckled, "Anyways, I will let my opponents choose the limit this ti. I want it to be as fair as possible, after all."
The dragons there raised their eyebrows, as Yuan made it sound like they were already at a disadvantage.
Soti later, Yuan and one of the dragons there entered the stage while everyone else surrounded the arena.
"Young man, do you rember ?" Yuan's opponent suddenly asked once they were both on the stage.
It took a second, but Yuan nodded, "Yes, I do. You are Long Yanjun, correct? You were also my first match the last ti."
"I'm glad that you rember . Anyways, let's set the limit to peak Spirit Lord. As for the rules, it'll be the sa as the last ti." Long Yanjun said.
Yuan nodded.
Since the rules will be the sa as their last fight, neither of them will be using any weapons and will be relying only on their fists.
Once the formation activated, Yuan's cultivation lowered to peak Spirit Lord.
Although the rules were the sa, the fight will be vastly different due to the increased cultivation limit.
For example, since they were limited to Spirit Master before, Long Yanjun wasn't able to use Qi Manifestation while Yuan could, which beca the deciding factor of that fight. However, now that they are both Spirit Lords, Long Yanjun will be able to use Qi Manifestation, and his techniques will be even more powerful in general.
"I won last ti because I used Qi Manifestation and you couldn't. Furthermore, you gave one free strike. This ti, I will let you strike first
— and I will give you three free strikes." Yuan said, which surprised Long Yanjun and the spectators.
"Three strikes? Are you serious?" Long Yanjun asked him.
Yuan nodded with a confident smile.
Long Yanjun smiled back, "Looks like it wasn't just your cultivation that changed."
"Anyways, I accept your offer! And I am going to make you regret it! Here I co!" Long Yanjun took a deep breath and gathered his spiritual energy before concentrating it at his fist.
Once he was prepared, Long Yanjun stepped forward and released his explosive attack.
"Purple Dragon Fist!"
Yuan stood there with his hands clasped behind his back as he calmly watched Long Yanjun's fist that was covered in a purple aura strike directly in the center of his stomach.
BOOM!
A ripple swept the arena as the purple aura from Long Yanjun's fist exploded outward, entering Yuan's stomach and coming out the back as though it penetrated through his entire body.
However, Long Yanjun did not move afterward, and there was a look of clear disbelief on his face.
'What the hell?' He asked himself as his entire arm that was used to strike Yuan trembled from the impact.
Long Yanjun eventually lowered his arm and took several steps back before lifting his head to look at Yuan in the face. Not only does Yuan look completely fine, he even seed relaxed.
As for Long Yanjun, when he struck Yuan just now, it didn't feel like he was hitting a human body. Instead, it felt like he'd punched a wall that was entirely made out of diamond, and half of the bones in his hand shattered because of that exchange.
