Chapter 422: Icefire Taiji Sword
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
As far as Zi Yi was concerned, Ye Mo was at mid-stage True Energy Realm yet his actual combat strength had reached early-stage Heaven’s Gate Realm. Since the newcor was a late-stage Heaven’s Gate Realm warrior, Ye Mo would not be able to deal with him.
“It’s you?” The leading student looked at Zi Yi, fear surfacing on his face.
The student pointed at Ye Mo who was behind Zi Yi and said, “Boss Gao Li, the man behind her was the one who hit us. We stopped him from entering the academy and he decided to beat us up. But they did co together.”
“I see.” Gao Li nodded. He then raised his head and looked at both Ye Mo and Zi Yi before saying coldly, “Who are you? How audacious of you to actually dare to attack the students of Luosha Academy.”
“The deed is done. So what?” Zi Yi remarked coldly, not even bothering to explain.
“So you are here to create trouble at our academy?” Gao Li raged. But due to his fear of Zi Yi, he did not do anything.
The student behind Gao Li spoke, his tone filled with arrogance. “I advise you two to kneel down and beg for forgiveness. Perhaps that way, Boss Gao Li will spare you. Boss Gao Li occupies the tenth place in our academy’s Expert Ranking. It will be too late to beg for rcy when he starts attacking,”
Zi Yi said, “Tenth place on the Expert Ranking?” Zi Yi looked at Gao Li in astonishnt. “Even a late-stage Heaven’s Gate Realm can only occupy tenth place? Looks like there are a lot of experts in your academy. Ye Mo, we have gathered sufficient information, let’s go,” It was pointless to remain. Thus, Zi Yi started heading towards the gate, ignoring Gao Li and the others.
“Courting death!” Gao Li was the number 10 expert in the Expert Ranking. He was pressured to act when Zi Yi treated him with such indifference. Imdiately, a pair of tiger claws ford of energy appeared on his hands.
“Heavenjolt Tiger!” He roared and his true energy soared out. A projection of jackals, wolves, tigers, and panthers appeared behind him, forming a huge beast diagram that hovered in the air. Then the beasts turned alive and charged out of the diagram, pouncing at Zi Yi.
But right as the beasts were about to reach Zi Yi, she grabbed at thin air and an energy sword imdiately appeared in her hands. With a wave of the sword, true energy of the ice and fire elents appeared before her. The ice seed capable of frosting a thousand miles, while the fire seed capable of setting the heavens on fire. The two elents were powerful and were in contrast with each other, akin to the concept of Taiji or Yin and Yang. The two elents revolved and warped into a Taiji diagram that emanated an intense power of ice and fire. Before the beasts could even approach Zi Yi, they were reduced to nothingness.
“Icefire Taiji Sword!” Zi Yi chanted indifferently before abruptly waving her sword. Instantly, the Taiji diagram transford into a sword qi that streaked straight forward.
Gao Li widened his eyes as he quickly ford his energy armor. But looking at the sword qi, Gao Li had a feeling he was trapped in a world of ice and fire. Oddly, before the Taiji sword qi could reach Gao Li, it vanished.
“Ye Mo, let’s go,” Zi Yi said calmly before leisurely walking towards the gate under everyone’s gazes of astonishnt.
“So...so powerful!” Ye Mo was also thoroughly shocked. The woman before him gave him an unfathomable feeling. And the random Taiji sword she revealed had also given Ye Mo quite a shock. That sword technique had fused the wills of ice and fire. The two were opposing elents, and fusing the two was an extrely difficult feat. Yet if one was able to fuse the two, the strength of the combination would multiply. This technique Zi Yi had casually revealed was sothing even Ye Mo had to seriously consider.
Taiji was a representative of two opposing extres.
“What are you doing standing there? If the other experts from the Expert Ranking arrive, things will get troubleso,” reminded Zi Yi before leaving.
Ye Mo did not hesitate and followed her to leave the academy.
“Boss Gao Li, that woman is so young yet so strong,” said the student while wiping off a cold sweat.
Gao Li’s face was gloomy as he watched the two figures leave and he said, “I reckon only the top three on the Expert Ranking can defeat her. Looks like many new geniuses will appear in this year’s autumn examination. Let’s report this to the crown prince.”
Ye Mo asked curiously, “Zi Yi, what exactly is your strength? You are so powerful!”
Again, Zi Yi avoided Ye Mo’s question and spoke indifferently, “You are not so bad yourself. With the level of mid-stage True Energy Realm, you can easily defeat six late-stage True Energy Realm with a single move.”
Since she did not intend to talk about it, Ye Mo did not persist. The two returned to their rooms.
When Ye Mo arrived at his room, he started recalling the Taiji sword qi displayed by Zi Yi. After today, Ye Mo understood that his strength was far from enough. Even after awakening 20,000 streams of Bright Dragon Power, defeat was still certain when he faced an expert of the like of Zi Yi. There were also the top three experts of Luosha Academy, and the experts of the various sects, clans, and tribes. Only three people would get a token. He had to further increase his strength to have more of a chance at one of the available Luosha Tokens.
I have already fused the Will of Slaughter and the Will of Blood, and my cultivation heart has already reached the fourfold spear light. When unleashing all my power, I will be able to deal with an early-stage Heaven’s Strength Realm expert with so difficulty. Ye Mo was aware that despite the Sky Blood Spear in his possession and the power of Bejeweled Weapon he could unleash, the two usages he had would not be sufficient against the experts he might encounter during the autumn examination.
Moreover, Luosha Kingdom was not the sa as the Tianwu Kingdom. There was a possibility that the other contestants would be equipped with Bejeweled Weapons as well.
I need to obtain the Luosha Token. Ling’er is still waiting for to revive her, and my close ones are still waiting for to return to the Tianwu Kingdom and rescue them. What should I do? Ye Mo was deeply aware that his strength was still insufficient. Even with the Rising Dragon Pillar, his strength was still nothing in a high-level kingdom.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Suddenly, the Sky Blood Spear flew out by itself before stabbing at the ground.
Ye Mo cried out doubtfully. “Um?” He looked at the Sky Blood Spear and sent a trace of his consciousness into the spear.
Ye Mo asked, “Hong Ling, what’s the matter with you?
Hong Ling said while curling her lips, “What’s the matter? I can’t stand your grumpy look anymore. Let bestow upon you the spear technique of the Sky Blood Lady. But whether you can comprehend it or not will depend on you.”
“Spear technique? Are you going to teach all seven styles of Sky Blood Spear?” Ye Mo asked in astonishnt while joy covered his face.
Of the Sky Blood Spear seven styles, each style was stronger than the forr. If Ye Mo could learn them all, he was confident he could obtain one of the Luosha Tokens.
Hong Ling explained, “The seven styles are my techniques, and without upgrading , you won’t be able to use the latter styles anyway. The one I’m planning to teach you is the spear technique created by the Sky Blood Lady, the Blood Spear. This is a set of powerful spear moves, but one can only learn it faster while practicing amid Blood Qi. With only three days remaining, you will only be able to learn a tiny bit of it.”
“Blood Qi?” Ye Mo imdiately took out the Sky Blood Pearl and said, “Will this be sufficient?”
Hong Ling said as a spear appeared on her hands, “Sky Blood Pearl? Lucky kid. Do you even have this thing? Looks like it is possible for to reach the Legendary Artifact level after all. This pearl will allow you to remain soaked in a Blood Qi rich environnt. Watch properly, Ye Mo. I shall demonstrate exactly what a powerful spear technique is.”
She started brandishing the spear in front of Ye Mo.
