On the arena, Zhao Feiyan’s expression was icy. She resembled a Fla Goddess as Spiritual Fire flickered before her, carrying overwhelming power. She stared at Lin Xuan and said with a smirk, "So what if you’re strong? Do you think you can withstand the Three Transformations of the Spiritual Fire?"
"Even Lei Bao was defeated by it, let alone you. Now, kneel before and admit defeat!"
She let out a furious roar that shook the heavens and the earth.
When he felt this surge of power, Lin Xuan was surprised. This force really is strong. But he only sneered coldly. "You are no match for ."
"You’re looking for death! I will beat you to a pulp and then make you kneel before !" Zhao Feiyan was utterly furious.
With a wave of her hand, the Spiritual Fire in front of her instantly surged forward, transforming into a sea of flas that enveloped Lin Xuan.
The crowd gasped.
"This kid is still talking tough, but he’s about to lose."
"More than that, he won’t just lose; he’ll get hurt."
"That fla is terrifying. He’s very likely to be seriously injured."
I’ve won! A smile curled onto Zhao Feiyan’s lips. In the next mont, however, her expression changed drastically. She saw Lin Xuan standing within the flas, completely unaffected.
What? How is this possible? It can’t even break through his defense? What kind of joke is this?
Zhao Feiyan was stunned. The other spectators were dumbfounded, and even the elders’ expressions changed drastically.
"What kind of Physique is this?" Ling Fengzi stood up, utterly flabbergasted.
Elder Feng’s eyes widened. He’d thought Lin Xuan would use the Seven Stars Calabash. He never expected Lin Xuan wouldn’t use it at all, instead withstanding the Spiritual Fire with his Physique alone. This is incredible! This Spiritual Fire is powerful enough to sweep away any Two-Star Martial General. Only a Three-Star Martial General should be able to withstand it. And yet, Lin Xuan, a re One-Star Martial General, blocked it with his Physique. Could this kid’s Physique be equivalent to that of a Three-Star Martial General?
Elder Feng was completely and utterly stunned.
Within the flas, Lin Xuan strode forward. His Physique was incredibly mighty; after all, he had absorbed the exceedingly powerful blood of a Serpent. His opponent’s Spiritual Fire was indeed formidable, but it was still unable to harm him.
Lin Xuan walked through the sea of flas like a War God. He walked towards Zhao Feiyan and said coldly, "I didn’t plan on fighting you, but since you’ve provoked again and again, you can’t bla for being rciless."
Lin Xuan raised his hand and slapped Zhao Feiyan.
BANG!
She was sent flying, crashing to the ground. She spat out a mouthful of blood, her face pale. How is this possible? Am I going to be defeated? She roared at the sky, trying to retaliate, but another slap was all that greeted her.
With the second strike, Zhao Feiyan was left dizzy and disoriented. Her body felt like it was about to crack apart. She collapsed, all strength to resist gone.
As Zhao Feiyan fell, the Spiritual Fire on the arena slowly vanished, finally flying back into her body.
Lin Xuan stood with his hands clasped behind his back. He looked at the referee and said, "Elder, you can announce the results."
The referee elder was stunned. After a mont’s daze, he finally regained his composure. He took a deep breath and announced loudly, "The victor is Lin Xuan!"
The entire arena was shocked, followed by an explosion of thunderous cheers.
"Damn, he actually won!"
"Am I dreaming?"
"How is he so strong?"
"He defeated Zhao Feiyan!"
"He withstood the Spiritual Fire with his body! What kind of Physique is that?"
The crowd went into a frenzy.
Sun Tian and Sun Hao were dumbstruck. Zhang Yang and Zhao Jie were dazed. Wu Ming’s face was filled with terror.
When he had previously lost to Lin Xuan, Wu Ming had been unreconciled. But now, he was convinced. Utterly convinced. Lin Xuan’s strength was on a completely different level from his own.
How is this possible? Lei Bao was dumbfounded. He had been defeated by Zhao Feiyan and knew firsthand how terrifying her Spiritual Fire was, yet Lin Xuan had blocked it with ease. Is this guy a monster?
A second-year genius standing nearby frowned. "Could he be wearing a powerful suit of Battle Armor?"
From a distance, the elders shook their heads. They, too, had suspected Lin Xuan was wearing Battle Armor, but they quickly realized that was not the case. Lin Xuan had no armor on him whatsoever.
Ling Fengzi was montarily stunned before a smile curled his lips. This guy is interesting. Previously, when Lin Xuan claid he wanted to be first on the Celestial Ranking, everyone, including him, had been disdainful. But now, it seed Lin Xuan wasn’t just bragging. He truly had the strength. With his current performance, getting onto the Celestial Ranking will be no problem at all. He might even have a chance to challenge for first place. Interesting, very interesting. I’m really looking forward to fighting him!
Ling Fengzi turned to Elder Feng and said, "Elder Feng, I’ve lost this bet. I’m thoroughly convinced. The 1,000 points are yours."
The other elders were also filled with emotion. One of them said, "Elder Feng, you’re quite lucky. Your Wangyue Pavilion has produced an extraordinary genius."
Another added, "Elder Feng, your Wangyue Pavilion is finally going to rise."
Elder Feng, however, was bewildered. Even though he had won 1,000 points, he wasn’t happy in the slightest. Despite the other elders’ congratulations, he felt so frustrated he wanted to cry. Previously, he had never thought much of Lin Xuan, even considering him a useless eyesore. He had even wanted to kick Lin Xuan out. But now? He had been thoroughly humiliated.
Was Lin Xuan trash? Far from it! He’s a top-tier genius! How could I still dare to underestimate him? How could I ever dare to try and chase him away again?
Elder Feng fell silent. He wouldn’t dare. If he drove away a genius of this caliber, the Pavilion Master of Wangyue Pavilion would kill him.
However, as heaven-defying as this kid is, he shouldn’t be able to beco number one on the Celestial Ranking, right? After all, Ling Fengzi is still there.
"Lin Xuan, you’re amazing!"
"Hahaha! Lin Xuan is a genius from our Wangyue Pavilion! Who dares to look down on us now!"
The most excited of all were the disciples of Wangyue Pavilion. Their pavilion had always been ranked last, a source of great frustration. Now, they could finally hold their heads high. They chanted Lin Xuan’s na, overjoyed.
Feng Qingxue was also in shock. Just how strong are you? When Lin Xuan had boasted earlier, she had been extrely worried. But now, it seed he wasn’t just bragging. His strength was imnse. He will definitely make it onto the Celestial Ranking. But could he really beco number one? A freshman taking the top spot on the Celestial Ranking... that has never happened in the entire history of the Heavenly Dao Academy. Is Lin Xuan about to make history? At this thought, Feng Qingxue drew a sharp, cold breath.
How could it be like this? Zhao Feiyan was utterly disheartened. Her Spiritual Fire’s Three Transformations was an incredibly powerful technique, even though she had only mastered the first transformation. In her opinion, not even Ling Fengzi could block it head-on. He would have to rely on his speed to dodge and launch a sneak attack to have any hope of winning. But now, Lin Xuan had blocked it head-on. It was too heaven-defying.
As Zhao Feiyan looked at Lin Xuan, she was filled with terror. She couldn’t understand him at all anymore.
Lin Xuan paid Zhao Feiyan no mind. He didn’t even glance at her, his gaze instead turning to the distance. He stared at Ling Fengzi.
At the sa ti, Ling Fengzi also turned his head. Their gazes t in mid-air.
A mont later, Ling Fengzi spoke, "Lin Xuan, you have earned the right to be my opponent. I look forward to our battle!"
