Pure Yellow Douqi burned from Ye Yinzhu’s body, his right hand grasping the heavy sword with four fingers, his gaze firmly fixed on his opponent before him.
Oliveira was surprised to find that Ye Yinzhu merely stood there casually, yet not a single flaw could be seen in his stance.
The pressure he emitted had no effect on him.
Little did he know, with Ye Yinzhu’s spiritual strength, it would be impossible to make him feel pressured without a gap of five ranks or more.
With a flip of his right hand, adorned with a faint blue glow, Oliveira’s heavy sword appeared in his grasp like a straw, the tip of the sword lifted lightly, and a blue light shadow trailed in the air, bringing forth a burst of amazed exclamations from the surroundings with its mesmerizing colors.
Initial Blue rank, truly worthy of being the number one person among the Milan Magic Martial Arts Academy Students.
His strength was not just at the Silver Star Dragon Rider level; once his giant dragon reached the Eighth Rank, he could pletely bee a Venus Dragon Knight.
“Be careful.” Oliveira stood still, the heavy sword in a single-handed grip rising like lightning, the air emitting a tearing screech, and the pale blue Douqi solidified instantly.
The next moment, the heavy sword struck downwards through the air, sending a dazzling blue light slash straight towards Ye Yinzhu’s right shoulder, the formidable Douqi roaring like the waves of the sea.
In an instant, the air between the two was pletely sucked away by this single sword strike.
Locked within its breath, Ye Yinzhu didn’t even have a chance to dodge.
Ye Yinzhu didn’t dodge; his right hand swung the heavy sword into motion.
The Yellow Douqi seemed to fare much worse than the blue at first glance, but when wielded in his hand, the heavy sword conjured seven water bucket-thick light shadows soaring skyward.
Everyone’s eyes widened as they watched this scene.
Apart from Ma Liang and Chang Hao who were shocked by Ye Yinzhu’s Douqi, everyone else thought Ye Yinzhu was finished.
The gap between Yellow rank and Blue rank was simply too great.
Even Floyd, standing behind Oliveira, was already showing a schadenfreude expression.
Yellow and blue collided in an instant.
Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom—, seven booms almost simultaneously erupted, huge Douqi fluctuations centered at the point of the two’s clash, pushing the surrounding students back at least three meters.
The Douqi light shadow converged, and Ye Yinzhu still stood there, his heavy sword already flying out, landing over ten meters away.
At this moment, although Oliveira was still standing in his original position, he was as stunned as a wooden chicken.
A green light, straight as a line, pointed right at his Adam’s apple, the cold breath making him dare not make the slightest movement.
The other end of the thread-thin light was held in Ye Yinzhu’s other hand.
In a head-on collision, Ye Yinzhu had lost.
Even though he had momentarily conjured seven strikes, his Douqi, equivalent to Intermediate Green rank, was ultimately no match for the Initial Blue rank.
But then, in the instant their collision ended, Green Silk had pointed at Oliveira’s throat.
If he wished, the Green Silk, specifically designed to pierce through Douqi, could penetrate Oliveira’s throat at any moment.
That supple Green Silk was now more rigid and sharp than a needle.
“I wonder if this counts as taking a strike from my senior?” Ye Yinzhu asked calmly.
Oliveira’s eyes showed a mix of shock and anger, but he still dared not move.
He knew he couldn’t be faster than the release of the other’s Douqi.
“Are you cheating?” He had underestimated Ye Yinzhu, which is why he didn’t use any technique in his attack.
He never expected that his opponent, a Divine Music Master, would have such an offensive method.
“Enough.
You’ve already lost.” An old voice sounded, and unbeknownst to the crowd, another person had appeared on the scene.
The armor, crafted from purple gold and Mithril, radiated a strong oppressive force, and under its immense pressure, the Green Silk infused with Ye Yinzhu’s Douqi softened again and retracted into his hand.
The newer was tall, with snow-white hair hanging behind his head, his hands behind his back as he stood in front of Oliveira, facing away from Ye Yinzhu.
“Grandfather,” Oliveira said, lowering his head in shame.
“Oliveira, you have disappointed me.
Do you know where you lost?
You lost to your pride.
What’s more shameful is that as a member of the Zi Luolan Family, you refused to admit your defeat after losing.
I, Martin, in my capacity as the Imperial Marshal, hereby strip you of your qualification as the leader of the Milan Magic Martial Academy delegation, and appoint Ye Yinzhu as your replacement.”
“Ah!
No, Grandfather, how can this be?” Oliveira exclaimed in shock.
“Why not?
Give me one reason.” The elderly voice was now filled with authority, causing everyone to feel oppressed and dare not speak out.
Oliveira hesitated, “Because, because I only asked him to take a single strike from me, and it was not a duel.
If it were a real duel, I wouldn’t have given him the chance.”
“Hmph.
I’m afraid you haven’t realized it yet.
Ye Yinzhu only has four fingers on his right hand.
You should understand the difference between having four fingers and five.
Although I don’t know how he managed it.
But from the way you just clashed, if he had five fingers, he would certainly have been able to grip the heavy sword tightly.”
It was only then that Oliveira noticed that Ye Yinzhu indeed lacked a little finger on his right hand, and his heart instantly turned ice cold.
Losing from Blue rank to Yellow rank was, in his heart, utterly unacceptable.
“Oliveira, let me ask you.
Will the enemy give you absolute fairness on the battlefield?
Especially when the opponent is weaker than you.
If you think that way, then it won’t be long before you bee just another corpse on the battlefield,” Martin’s voice had bee even more stern.
Oliveira’s gaze gradually transformed as he spoke with embarrassment, “Grandfather, I understand now.
I am willing to accept your punishment and relinquish the position of the leader.
But to ensure the students of the Milan Magic Martial Arts Academy can better cooperate with the army this time, I hope you will allow me to serve as the deputy leader to assist Ye Yinzhu.”
Martin laughed, “Good.
That’s my grandson,” he said as he slowly turned around.
When Ye Yinzhu saw Martin’s face, his eyes widened in surprise, the intense numb sensation in his right hand from the earlier collision seemed to vanish at that moment.
Marshal of the Milan Empire, Clan Leader of the Zi Luolan Family, Purple Star Dragon Knight, a renowned powerhouse on the Ryuzakinus Continent, Martin.
He was indeed acquainted with Marshal Martin, who had all these prestigious titles.
“Old Martin, how can it be you?” Yes, this man in the purple and gold armor, Martin, was the same person who used to visit Floating Orchid Villa to listen to his zither playing, who showed extraordinary respect for Anya!
Martin smiled slightly, “Indeed, it is me.
Yin Zhu, you’ve given me another surprise.
I didn’t expect your martial skills to be as exceptional as your zither playing.”
Only at this point did Ye Yinzhu gradually e back to his senses, “Hello, Marshal Martin.”
Martin nodded at him and then turned to all the Milan students who were going to battle, saying solemnly, “You all must have heard what I said to Oliveira just now.
My words were not meant for him alone; they were also meant for all of you.
I must tell you, the battlefield is no child’s play.
Among you, many e from powerful backgrounds and distinguished families.
However, those things won’t help you on the battlefield.
If you want to survive the harshness of war, what you can rely on is only yourself and your rades.
Therefore, I hope you can bee a united whole.
For the glory of the Empire, follow me to depart.”
“Yes, Marshal,” every person was stirred by Martin’s impassioned speech, especially the warriors, as they all stood upright and saluted in unison.
