"No, this can’t be possible!"
Having lost contact, Xu Huan couldn’t help but grunt and then his face twisted in devastation. Regardless of his unwillingness, the connection with his Fire Spirit Snake ridian Spirit could not be recovered at this mont.
"My ridian Spirit! Co back! Co back to !"
A frantic roar escaped from Xu Huan, causing the spectators around the arena to ponder deeply, wondering if the outco of the Spirit Fighting Conference would be revealed so soon.
In reality, the match at the Spirit Fighting Conference had only just passed the duration of half an incense stick, and Xu Huan had only managed to strike once with his ridian Spirit before being enveloped by the flas of a fiery red bird.
It’s known that it was a Seventh Rank Advanced Strange Spirit refined into a ridian Spirit, so why did it falter so miserably under Yun Xiao’s newly acquired little bird ridian Spirit?
At the northern high platform, the face of Xu Huang, the branch chairman of Douling Comrce, wasn’t much better than his son’s. The confidence he initially held was thoroughly shattered at this mont.
In contrast, Xia Yong, the special envoy standing next to Xu Huang, had his eyes burning with even greater intensity. That young man called Yun Xiao was truly full of surprises every day.
Xia Yong decided that he must capture Yun Xiao after this Spirit Fighting Conference and forcefully extract the thod of subjugating contract ridian Spirits from him. This might even elevate his position within the headquarters of Douling Comrce.
Boom!
The thoughts of the spectators around the arena were unknown to Yun Xiao. Red Feather suddenly erupted with a formidable power, followed by a loud sound from where it was enveloped in flas.
"No, no!"
At that mont, Xu Huan’s face turned extrely pale as if his blood had been drained in an instant, uttering a aningless cry.
But Red Feather paid no attention to this annoying person. It flapped its wings slightly, and the fiery red flas suddenly shrank before flying back into its body.
At this mont, however, the attention of the crowd wasn’t on Red Feather but was fixed on the spot where the flas had disappeared. There, a fiery red crystal hovered and spun in mid-air, emitting waves of intense heat, both mysterious and intriguing.
"A Seventh Rank Advanced Strange Spirit Crystal!"
Seeing the spinning fiery red crystal, many eyes were filled with greed, especially among the Fire Attribute cultivators, who wished they could leap onto the arena and claim it for themselves.
However, these people still retained a shred of reason, knowing that possessing the treasure was one thing, but surviving to enjoy it was another. On the arena of the Spirit Fighting Conference, any disruption might instantly reduce one to a pile of flesh.
Flap, flap...
While the crowd watched with fervent eyes, an odd sound ca from the arena, followed by the sight of the fiery red bird wobbling towards the Strange Spirit Crystal and finally snagging it in its beak.
It was unclear how the bird, the size of an adult’s palm, managed with its small beak to grab the fist-sized Spirit Crystal. Nevertheless, Red Feather was now holding the Spirit Crystal in its beak and flying back to Yun Xiao.
Already sowhat unstable in its flight, Red Feather, now with a Spirit Crystal in its beak, struggled even more, which made the spectators believe that it might give out at any mont.
Yet this little bird, which barely knew how to fly, had defeated a Seventh Rank Advanced Strange Spirit ridian Spirit, evoking a strange sensation among the spectators. How could today’s battle turn out to be so bizarre?
"Stop it right there!"
Just as the crowd was pondering the oddities, a sudden angry shout exploded from the arena, followed by a figure dashing towards the position of the fiery red bird.
The person who suddenly spoke out was none other than Xu Huan, the young master of Douling Comrce. At this mont, he finally recovered his senses, overwheld by a surge of new and old grievances, and could no longer hold back.
Since his first encounter with Yun Xiao at the ridian Spirit trading street, Xu Huan had developed an inexplicable aversion to this fearless young man and had always wanted to eliminate him swiftly.
Regardless of Yun Xiao’s dazzling performance at this Spirit Fighting Conference and his consecutive defeats of several strong mbers of the comrce, Xu Huan had never truly regarded him.
Setting aside the fact that his ridian Qi Cultivation had strengthened by two minor realms, Xu Huan’s greatest confidence still lay in his Fire Spirit Snake ridian Spirit, a unique technique that refined Strange Spirits into ridian Spirits. Even if presented at the headquarters of Douling Comrce, it would surely be considered quite special.
But it was this extre self-confidence that was utterly shattered today on the platform of the Spirit Fighting Arena by a fiery red bird summoned by Yun Xiao, leaving Xu Huan unable to swallow his anger.
Watching his Strange Spirit get annihilated and now even the Spirit Crystal was about to fall into the hands of the person he hated the most, the last string in Xu Huan’s heart finally snapped.
At this mont, all thoughts of accepting defeat gracefully and the rules of the Spirit Fighting Conference were thrown out of the window by him; he only wanted to slap the youth, who had obliterated his face, to death to quell the hatred in his heart.
Below the arena, the crowd, seeing Xu Huan suddenly make a move, were sowhat unable to react. This, after all, was the Spirit Fighting Conference where bodily combat was not allowed. Was this young master of the local Chapter of Douling Comrce intending to set a precedent by breaking the rules himself?
Hence, at this ti, many gazes turned toward the northern high platform, and then they saw the deputy of the Yuyang City Douling Comrce seemingly stunned by the surprise and at that mont did nothing and did not voice any objection.
"It seems that Chairman Xu Huang, regarding his beloved son’s defeat, is sowhat unable to accept it!"
Seeing Xu Huang’s reaction, so astute people refused to believe that a grand Seeking Origin Realm cultivator could be frightened into stupidity by such an event; surely, he was doing this on purpose.
The crowd guessed right; Xu Huang indeed intentionally adopted such a deanor so people would believe he was caught off guard and unable to intervene.
That youth who had destroyed his son’s ridian Spirit and wanted to claim the Strange Spirit Crystal absolutely could not be allowed to leave the arena easily. Xu Huang believed that even if it was just one strike, a minor in the early stages of the Qi Seeking Realm would not stand a chance against his son.
Whether it was Xu Huang, Xia Yong, or the onlooking cultivators, upon seeing Xu Huan rapidly close the distance to several feet from Yun Xiao, a collective sigh couldn’t help but escape their hearts.
Could it be that the youth, who shone so brilliantly on the stage of the Spirit Fighting Conference, defeating many peak Qi Seeking Realm cultivators with his ridian Spirit, was going to die so aggrievedly on the arena?
Because everyone knew, no matter how powerful Yun Xiao’s ridian Spirit was, his own Cultivation was rely at the early stage of the Qi Seeking Realm, while Xu Huan, the young master of the Douling Comrce, had already reached the late stage of the Qi Seeking Realm. There simply was no comparison between the two.
If in the combined realms of the ridian Union and Spiritual Vein, there might be so monstrously talented geniuses able to fight across levels, then at the level of the Earth Rank Third Realm, such cross-level combating geniuses were almost as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns on the Tenglong Continent.
The crowd was imnsely impressed by Yun Xiao’s ridian Spirit, but once physical combat began, this youth was probably no match for Xu Huan, it seed that after this strike, everything would be concluded.
"Tch, these guys really have no sha!"
Up on the arena, seeing Xu Huan, infuriated and embarrassed, lunging at him, and not a single voice in the arena cried out in reprimand, a cold smile couldn’t help but flash across his eyes.
Yun Xiao knew it was Xu Huan’s status as the great young master of the Douling Comrce acting up, probably besides his father Xu Huang and that special envoy from the headquarters, others in the arena dared not offend the Douling Comrce lightly.
However, contrary to what everyone thought, as Xu Huan with a fierce expression pounced towards him, not a trace of fear appeared on Yun Xiao’s face, but rather a smirk filled with amusent.
Especially when he sensed that Xu Huan did not use any ridian Techniques but intended to use Physical Strength to kill him, the cold smile in Yun Xiao’s eyes only grew denser.
After breaking through to the early stage of the Qi Seeking Realm, and also with the empowernt of the powers of several Ancestor Veins and the Ancient Dragon Taming Technique, his Physical Strength, was probably not much worse than so Seventh Rank Interdiate Vein Demons.
Although Xu Huan had also reached the late stage of the Qi Seeking Realm, his physical strength compared to a Seventh Rank Interdiate Vein Demon was still sowhat lacking, after all, he was just a human cultivator.
If it were a battle involving ridian Qi Cultivation or ridian Techniques, Yun Xiao might not be very confident in his ability to contend, but in just a contest of Physical Strength, he definitely wouldn’t fear anyone at any level of the Qi Seeking Realm.
Bang!
Under the unusual gaze of the crowd, Xu Huan’s strike was finally unleashed, but what struck them as odd was that the ruggedly dressed youth Yun Xiao did not dodge, but instead stretched out a fist and collided with the forr’s fist, resulting in a loud noise.
"Isn’t this too overconfident?"
This was the most genuine thought in the minds of most people in the arena because, in their eyes, with a difference of two whole minor realms between them, the victor of such a head-on collision would undoubtedly be Xu Huan!
So even thought that Yun Xiao might be beaten to a fracture and die under this one strike, which would indeed be quite boring.
"Huh? No, wait!"
Until the rampant energy dissipated revealing the two figures within, everyone involuntarily gasped in astonishnt because they suddenly realized that their previous thoughts might have been sowhat laughable.
The youth, who ought to have been demolished by Xu Huan to the point of fractures and death, hadn’t taken a single step back and stood rooted like a giant tree, immovable and still as majestic as ever.
