“Fight!”
Shangguan Canglong raised his head slightly, then lifted his right foot and stomped down fiercely.
“Boom!”
The thundering sound echoed throughout the training ground.
The next moment, under the stunned gazes of those around him, Shangguan Canglong shot across the arena toward Chu Xuan.
Fighting spirit surged in Chu Xuan’s eyes as he charged toward Shangguan Canglong instead of retreating.
The seven-to-eight-meter distance, with both sides charging at full speed, closed in the blink of an eye!
“Whoosh!”
Shangguan Canglong’s feet seemed to have springs as he leaped into the air.
His right fist was wrapped in glowing star power, making a sharp piercing sound as it smashed straight at Chu Xuan’s face!
Feeling the forceful and domineering power of Shangguan Canglong’s punch, Chu Xuan’s eyes showed a hint of solemnity, but he didn’t back down! He lowered his body, twisted his wrists and sent out a punch with the right hand!
Under everyone’s watchful gazes, the two fists, carrying an aura of both forceful and domineering power, collided fiercely!
“Boom!”
A terrifying star power fluctuation, centered on the point where their fists met, spread wildly in all directions!
Layers of dust and dirt exploded outward!
Both men grunted simultaneously and quickly retreated!
“Bang, bang, bang!”
With every retreating step, deep pits were formed on the ground!
Finally, Chu Xuan retreated nine steps before stopping.
And Shangguan Canglong retreated only six steps before steadying himself.
The difference in star power between the two seemed not to be significant after their first head-on clash!
However, when Chu Xuan raised his right hand to take a look, his eyes narrowed slightly!
A thick layer of ice crystals had formed on the Magic Crystal Armor covering his right hand!
So, despite his aggressive and domineering appearance, Shangguan Canglong was actually practicing an ice-type technique!
It should be noted that most Guardian Beastmasters and Star Martial Artists choose their technique attributes only when they reach third class or higher.
Only because they had the mental strength support to use certain techniques.
And only when they reach the third class or above, can Guardian Beastmasters temporarily borrow their Guardian Beast’s skills.
Unexpectedly, Shangguan Canglong had chosen the ice attribute while still at the Grade 2 Realm!
He must have an overwhelming amount of mental strength and star power to have the confidence to do this!
Chu Xuan slightly lowered his head, and his left index finger gently swept across the ice crystals covering his right hand.
Ice-type techniques could, during a fight, continuously inject cold air into the opponent’s body through each collision of force!
If it weren’t for the Magic Crystal Armor Gangzi had cast, Shangguan Canglong would have already injected cold air into his body with their initial punch!
Once the cold air enters the body, even if it doesn’t cause much damage to the internal organs, it will inevitably affect the flow of star power!
“Very strong!”
Chu Xuan clenched his right fist slightly, activated his star power, and shattered the ice crystals covering his arm.
At this moment, Shangguan Canglong roared!
Cold air centered around him began to swirl madly!
Wherever the cold air passed, the grass on the training ground was covered in ice crystals!
And Shangguan Canglong’s aura surged crazily once again!
He had already gained the upper hand with the first punch, but he hadn’t used his full strength!
In the crowd, Li Sheng’s eyes darkened: “Damn it, is this the offspring of the Alchemy Large Family? Choosing technique attributes while still in the Grade 2 Realm?”
“Chu Xuan hasn’t chosen his technique attributes yet. Fighting him like this would be very disadvantageous!”
Chen Fan’s expression shifted slightly, and he didn’t speak.
Shen Daodao, Ding Yi, and Li Fengxing all grinned when they heard this.
At this moment, Li Sheng shouted, “Chu Xuan, be quick and decisive!”
His words puzzled the many students around him.
Chu Xuan didn’t have the upper hand…
Why should he be quick and decisive?
But Chu Xuan understood Li Sheng’s meaning… Gangzi’s Magic Crystal Armor had a time limit!
Was it three minutes, five minutes, or seven minutes?
Chu Xuan couldn’t be sure.
But once the time was up, the Armor would disappear.
If the Armor disappeared, even if Chu Xuan’s Star Power was equal to Shangguan Canglong’s, he wouldn’t be able to withstand the cold air invading his body!
The longer the fight dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for Chu Xuan!
Shangguan Canglong stood opposite, focusing only on raising his momentum, clearly wanting to drag out the battle too!
“Gangzi’s strength must be above Level 8…”
Chu Xuan’s eyes slightly narrowed, thoughts racing: “Without using swords, it won’t be easy for either me or Shangguan Canglong to break this Armor in a short time.”
At that moment, Chu Xuan suddenly remembered the grappling techniques Elder Ape had demonstrated in the arena!
He needed to get close, engage in close-combat, wear down his opponent’s energy and then strike him down decisively!
A flash of brilliance flickered in Chu Xuan’s eyes. With a sudden jolt, he closed the distance between himself and Shangguan Canglong and sent a straight punch towards Shangguan Canglong’s chest.
Shangguan Canglong showed no fear, his left elbow shot upward, deflecting Chu Xuan’s right punch, then sliced down at Chu Xuan’s neck in a knife-handed strike.
But just as his hand was about to strike…
Chu Xuan’s body suddenly sank and his right hand, which had been knocked upwards by Shangguan Canglong’s elbow, snapped onto Shangguan Canglong’s right wrist with a click!
“Huh?”
Shangguan Canglong was momentarily stunned..
