Chapter 143: Let Me Go First, I'm a Viscount!
Back on the arena, Chu Huai, who was engulfed by the fiery tornado, his face suddenly tensed, and he cursed under his breath that young people didn't play fair!
Immediately, Chu Huai swung his blade, and his eighth spirit ring lit up. A Domain Spirit Ability formed by malevolent aura directly broke through the fiery tornado.
"Eighth Spirit Ability, Black Demon Blade Domain!"
"You brat, your attacks are quite vicious! If I hadn't reacted quickly, I really would have fallen for your trick!"
While Chu Huai spoke, distracting Bai Yu, he took advantage of the Domain's power and swung his blade towards Bai Yu.
Seeing this, Bai Yu squinted his eyes slightly, then released his Yin Yang Domain.
On the long blade shaped by the Blue Silver King, the Four Symbols elements flowed, and he swung it forward, clashing with the attacking Black Demon Blade.
"Buzz!"
A piercing clang of metal rang out. Both men, holding their blades, pulled back as soon as they touched, then synchronized their movements, both turning their blades back and attacking again.
In the time that followed, Bai Yu and Chu Huai seemed to have gotten into the swing of things. Chu Huai didn't use any Spirit Abilities, and Bai Yu didn't use the power of the Four Symbols.
They competed in blade techniques throughout, just like swordsmen.
On the arena, afterimages flickered, and blade energy crisscrossed, with the constant sound of metal clashing.
Their blade technique competition lasted for about an hour, until the moon was high in the sky, when they finally separated, standing on opposite sides of the arena.
"Haha, as expected of a genius monster who has already cultivated to a Spirit Saint at such a young age. The speed of your blade technique's progress truly makes this old man ashamed!"
Chu Huai looked at Bai Yu opposite him and let out a deep sigh of admiration.
Initially, he could suppress him head-on, but later Bai Yu was already able to counterattack, and now, he could be said to be evenly matched with him, not falling behind in a head-on clash.
Hearing Chu Huai's words, Bai Yu grinned, nodded slightly at him, and said with a grateful tone:
"I also have to thank Senior Chu for his generous guidance. Otherwise, it would have taken me an unknown amount of time to reach my current level."
Chu Huai waved his hand and said indifferently:
"It's still because your talent is high enough, brat. Otherwise, just like the younger generation of my family, even if I teach them hand-in-hand, they still can't reach a high level!"
"Alright, let's not say these polite words. We've been fighting long enough. Let's decide the winner in one move!"
"Alas, I'm really old. Just moving my arms and legs a bit makes me feel exhausted. Let's end this quickly so this old man can rest."
Bai Yu chuckled and nodded, saying:
"Okay, then let's decide the winner in one move. Senior Chu, be careful!"
"Four Symbols gather, all things are born, one blade opens the sky!"
As Bai Yu's voice fell, he raised his long blade horizontally in front of him. The power of the Four Symbols circulated around the blade, and an extremely overbearing aura shot up into the sky.
Seeing this scene, Chu Huai's mouth twitched violently, and he cursed inwardly, this scoundrel, he speaks so nicely, but he shows no mercy when he attacks!
Immediately, Chu Huai dared not delay, and maximized the amplification of his third Spirit Ability and the blade Domain of his eighth Spirit Ability. A thick black malevolent aura rapidly spread around him.
At this moment, the arena seemed to be divided into two different worlds by the two of them.
One side was surrounded by malevolent aura, with faint sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling, making one's heart turn cold at a glance.
The other side had the Four Symbols elements surging, with dazzling light, as if divine power had descended.
But before the two of them could make a move, a chorus of wails came from the surrounding spectator stands.
Especially those in the front rows, they stood up and constantly tugged at the people next to them, wanting to retreat.
"Damn it, I just came to watch a Spirit Douluo battle, but this scene is a bit too grand!"
"Crap, where are the Great Spirit Arena staff? Quickly tell the people in front to make way, let me go first, I'm a Viscount!"
"Get lost! What's so great about being a Viscount, I'm an Earl! This is really bad luck, coming to watch a Spirit Douluo battle and even encountering life danger!"
...
Hearing the commotion around them, Bai Yu and Chu Huai paused. They had been fighting excitedly and had forgotten that this was the Great Spirit Arena.
But now that the arrow was already on the string, if they were to stop now, not to mention Bai Yu, Chu Huai wouldn't be happy either.
"Little friend Bai, how about a battle in the sky?"
Hearing Chu Huai's question, Bai Yu grinned slightly and said with a hint of excitement:
"Good, Senior Chu, then let's battle in the sky!"
As soon as their voices fell, they both soared into the air, reaching a height of several hundred meters above the ground.
Afterward, the two of them didn't waste any more words. They directly condensed the previous phenomena and aura, forming two hundred-meter-long blades, one colorful and one black.
"Open the Sky!"
"Soul Sever!"
As the two giant blades collided, a powerful spirit power shockwave swept wildly in all directions.
A violent roar echoed throughout Heaven Dou City, waking up countless people from their sleep, who cursed incessantly.
When everything dissipated, Bai Yu and Chu Huai stood in mid-air.
The long blade in Bai Yu's hand had already shattered into pieces, and there was a faint blade mark on his chest, subtly seeping blood.
Chu Huai had no injuries on his body, but his Spirit, the Black Demon Blade, had some cracks, and his arms were trembling non-stop.
"Cough, cough, this old man lost. The younger generation is truly formidable. Seeing little friend Bai's strength, this old man truly feels old!"
Chu Huai coughed lightly, let out a breath, and his face immediately turned pale, a trail of blood slowly flowing from the corner of his mouth.
Bai Yu's expression was solemn at this moment. He bowed to Chu Huai and said:
"Senior Chu's guidance, Bai Yu will certainly remember it in his heart. If there is any need in the future, you can send a message to Spirit City, and Bai Yu will go all out!"
Chu Huai waved his hand and laughed loudly.
"Haha, originally I did plan to do you a favor, but you brat are just too strong, your strength far exceeds my imagination."
"Since I became a Spirit Douluo, I haven't fought so heartily before, so there's no need for repayment. That bit of guidance will just be your compensation for sparring."
Looking at Chu Huai's carefree demeanor, Bai Yu also chuckled.
"Heh heh, one thing's one thing. With your current strength, Senior, there really isn't much you need, but you still have your family."
"I will convey this favor to your family members, Senior. If you don't need it yourself, then let them use it."
"But speaking of it, the one who pretended to be a waiter in my place tonight was your family's junior, wasn't he? That's quite interesting."
Hearing Bai Yu's words, Chu Huai's expression was slightly awkward. He couldn't help but raise his hand to cover half of his face and said in a muffled voice:
"That kid is the leader of our family's generation. Everything else is fine, but his personality is a bit strange."
"He's loved reading picture books and stories since he was little. Your appearance is as if a protagonist from a picture book has descended into reality, a genius like a monster, invincible in battle."
"In this situation, that kid naturally couldn't help but go and see. When he told me before that he ran to your place to be a waiter, I disciplined him, but it just wasn't very effective."
Bai Yu's expression was astonished, and he thought to himself, good heavens, is this kid so obsessed with stories that he's gone crazy?
