“We’re here.” Like lightning, Li Yuan’s form suddenly slowed down, his mind becoming extremely calm as he strained to listen for any movement within the walls.
Whoosh!
“The sprint over here had some effect.” Li Yuan took a deep breath as the vigor within him flowed, and countless subtle strands of strength relaxed slightly, readying for the next burst of energy.
Li Yuan did not rush forward impulsively but rather strove to adjust his state.
Fast cannot be sustained.
Like high-level martial artists of the 19th rank, they can sprint at 100 meters per second, but it’s not sustainable… Li Yuan’s explosion of speed under a state of subtlety was even more so.
Just like normal people, they can sprint at a full strength often reaching 10 meters per second, but can they run 1000 meters in just 100 seconds?
The opponent is a second-rank warrior from the Fish Spirit Clan, and if Li Yuan were to face it alone, he would stand no chance of winning whatsoever.
Whoosh!
Without a sound, Li Yuan’s specially-made Origin Power battle suit was activated.
Without infusing Origin Power, the battle suit’s defense would be significantly reduced.
But likewise, without the boost of Origin Power, the battle suit under the surface armor wasn’t conspicuous, allowing Li Yuan to easily blend into the darkness.
With a light leap, Li Yuan jumped onto the school wall, four to five meters high, and squatted on top of it.
Looking down.
Li Yuan had a clear view of the situation; he saw on the school playground, over three hundred meters away.
Two figures were fighting fiercely: one enveloped in terrifying blue light and the other resembling a flame warrior, wielding a long spear.
The two were engaged in intense combat.
The site of the battle was, accurately speaking, near one side of a teaching building.
At this moment, that building was half-collapsed, and distressing cries could be faintly heard.
Clearly, they were affected by the aftereffects of the battle between the two powerhouses.
At the same time.
Li Yuan’s peripheral vision swept over and could discern many more figures in the midst of fierce fighting on the playground and between the buildings.
All were human warriors and warriors from the Fish Spirit Clan.
With just one look, Li Yuan determined that the human warriors were decidedly at a disadvantage.
“[Target creature, Life Level 19.9]”
“[Target creature, Life Level 20.1, second-rank being, lightly wounded, currently estimated at 19.9, killing may yield Spiritual Nature nourishment]” In the instant Li Yuan assessed the situation of the entire Nanhuang Elementary School, his thoughts shifted, and he had already obtained the basic information of the two strong opponents in battle.
“[Target creature, Life Level 19.1]”
“[Target creature, Life Level 18.1]”
“[Target…]” Li Yuan’s inquiry flashed like lightning over the other Fish Spirit Clan warriors his eyes could see.
The single result from the second-rank Fish Spirit Clan warrior immediately caught Li Yuan’s attention.
Could yield Spiritual Nature nourishment?
“My Spiritual Awakening Level has already reached its limit; killing numerous warriors from the Fish Spirit Clan during combat missions has provided no enhancement.” Many thoughts flashed through Li Yuan’s mind: “Why would the Divine Palace panel suggest that killing that second-rank Fish Spirit Clan warrior could yield Spiritual Nature nourishment?”
Even though I’ve reached the limit.
Previously, my Spiritual Awakening limit increased from 20% to 25% because my spiritual power broke through to level 20.
“There was no reminder for the nineteenth-rank alien warriors.”
“Could it be because this one is a second-rank alien?” A thought crossed Li Yuan’s mind.
He had never killed a second-rank alien before.
However.
The situation was urgent, leaving no time for Li Yuan to ponder. In less than 0.5 seconds from the moment he leaped to the top of the school wall to when he fully assessed the situation, he was already leaping down.
He dashed like lightning towards one of the human warriors already in a desperate situation.
…
Next to the teaching building.
“Kill! Kill!” The second-rank Fish Spirit Clan warrior roared as his four arms tightly gripped two combat sabers, relentlessly plunging towards Xu Bo like lightning.
“Boom~”
The ground cracked again and again, rocks flying in all directions, and their casual strikes on the nearby teaching building would shatter it, kicking up countless broken stones.
Fortunately.
These buildings had been fortified layer by layer, and the construction technology was very advanced; they wouldn’t easily collapse. Only after such a long battle did the entire building not completely fall.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Xu Bo stimulated his Star Meridians, drawing forth an explosive burst of Origin Power. His form was graceful and unrestrained, impersonating gusts of wind as he dodged the second-rank Fish Spirit Clan warrior’s attacks again and again, subtly seizing control of the fight.
His spear in hand was overpoweringly domineering, with each thrust accurately striking the body of the second-rank Fish Spirit Clan warrior, inflicting injury after injury.
“This second-rank Fish Spirit Clan warrior must have just broken through.”
“The Fish Spirit Star Realm is only a First Level Star Realm, where only first-rank powerhouses can come and go.” As Xu Bo fought for his life, his mind was extraordinarily calm: “His skills are immature, he must have achieved ‘Unity’ of body and mind not long ago.”
“But even if he has just broken through, he is still second-rank!!”
“In terms of force and speed, in terms of Origin Power, I am now fully behind second-rank and weaker than him unless I can fully activate three Star Meridians; otherwise, I can’t keep up,” Xu Bo thought coldly: “Only skill remains.”
“My movement technique, my Spear Technique, are both close to the High Rank of the Fourth Level, which is why I can hold my own and entangle with him.”
“However,”
“Even without an Origin Power battle suit, his skin is naturally tough, and his defenses have skyrocketed with Origin Power enveloping his body… It’s hard for me to inflict a fatal injury.” Xu Bo was well aware of the situation.
If the battle continues like this.
There is a chance for Xu Bo to win.
But the key issue is, with Xu Bo’s injuries, he can’t hold on for long, and his strength will keep declining.
Once defeated, the other human warriors will be swiftly swept away, and the students and parents in the few teaching buildings of the school will be brutally slaughtered.
In this half-collapsed teaching building, many were already buried, crying out in distress, causing Xu Bo’s heart to bleed.
But there was no choice!
Xu Bo tried to lure the second-rank Fish Spirit Clan warrior away.
But the second-rank Fish Spirit Clan warrior was not fooled at all, he kept ferociously attacking the teaching building, forcing Xu Bo to stay and fight, doing his best to protect the structure from further damage.
“Old Xing and the others…”
“Let’s hope we can hold out until support arrives,” Xu Bo had already noticed that inside the Nanhuang Elementary School, there were still a large number of high-level Fish Spirit Clan warriors.
Thank goodness!
The team he led was overall quite strong, with the lowest being a 17th Level Martial Artist, which was definitely “elite,” and that’s why they had been able to hold out until now.
Suddenly.
“Whoosh!”
Hundreds of meters away, a streak of light flashed past, followed by a Fish Spirit Clan fighter over 18th Level who fell to the ground after just two exchanges.
“Hmm?”
“Is that reinforcements? What quick speed, what sharp spear technique,” Xu Bo saw a glimpse out of the corner of his eye, but it was too dark to make out clearly.
He hadn’t seen the person’s face.
Xu Bo just subconsciously felt that the fleeting figure of the human warrior seemed somewhat familiar.
On the other hand.
Xu Bo, in the midst of fierce battle, also didn’t have the spare energy to pay attention to other directions.
Holding off this Second Rank Alien Race was the greatest protection he could offer to the other human warriors.
…
“Bang!” “Boom!”
Beside the collapsing broken school wall, Li Yuan, who had erupted with full strength, moved like lightning, crossing over the struggling human warrior, and his long spear suddenly burst forth with an incredibly sharp thrust.
Ferociously attacking the 19.1 Level Fish Spirit Clan fighter in front of him.
The spear shadows were continuous.
The weapons of both sides clashed like lightning, sending sparks flying everywhere.
Then, a flash of spear light suddenly erupted, piercing through the opponent’s neck, causing blood to splatter.
The long spear quickly retracted, and the muscular neck of the Fish Spirit Clan fighter was almost severed in half.
He fell to the ground with a thunderous crash!
The 19th Level Fish Spirit Clan warrior was dead.
“In terms of strength, you are not inferior to the Fish Spirit Clan fighter at the school, you are even much stronger,” Li Yuan glanced and then leaped to kill the next high-ranking Fish Spirit Clan warrior.
Compared to the time at the school gate.
Li Yuan, wielding a long spear and bursting forth with full power, was several times more powerful than when he only had a short knife, and his killing power was extremely frightening.
A 19th Level Fish Spirit Clan warrior? Truly no match for him.
“Instructor Xing, go help the others,” Li Yuan’s calm voice drifted over.
Instructor Xing, who had just been rescued and was still gasping for breath without even having the chance to express his gratitude, suddenly heard that familiar voice and his heart jolted: “Li Yuan?”
He could hardly believe it.
In his recollection, Li Yuan, who had just graduated from high school less than half a year ago and should have become a Martial Artist not long ago, was actually capable of killing a 19th Level Fish Spirit Clan warrior with a flip of his hand?
The change was so significant that Instructor Xing took a moment to process.
Whoosh!
Li Yuan had already charged tens of meters ahead, impaling another high-level Fish Spirit Clan warrior with his spear and tossing them into the air.
“He’s truly amazing,” Instructor Xing sighed inwardly, and immediately leapt out to assist the other warriors in the team.
Subconsciously.
“Instructor Xu,” Instructor Xing glanced at Xu Bo who was in fierce combat with a Second Rank Alien Race.
“You must hold on.”
If he wanted to survive, Instructor Xing’s best option would be to immediately retreat from Nanhuang Elementary School and escape into the complicated streets in the distance… but he didn’t do that.
Not just him.
Many of the human warriors saved by Li Yuan took only one or two seconds to catch their breath before charging at the other Fish Spirit Clan fighters.
Everyone knew deep down.
There was no retreat; they could only fight to their utmost. Only then was there hope for everyone to survive today.
…
“Spurt!” Another spear thrust pierced through the body of a high-level Fish Spirit Clan warrior.
“28 seconds.”
“I’ve killed five high-level Fish Spirit Clan warriors,” Li Yuan scanned the area.
The fierce battle was still ongoing, but the situation for a large number of human warriors had greatly improved.
At that moment.
Boom! Boom! Boom! A small aircraft rapidly descended, followed by several figures flying down.
“Kill!” “Kill!”
Roars erupted one after another; it was Fang Longhu and the others who, after some hesitation, finally decided to take the risk and join the battle.
“There’s reinforcements.”
“Other warrior squads have arrived.” The still-living human warriors grew more excited; they saw the hope of victory, and the hope of surviving.
…
Meanwhile.
Boom!
Li Yuan’s body was like an arrow released from the bowstring, dashing dozens of meters in a swoop, rushing toward Xu Bo who was still in fierce battle with a Second Rank Fish Spirit Clan warrior.
After several leaps and movements, he was already close.
“Boom!” Li Yuan, gripping the spear with both hands, suddenly leapt forth with a straight thrust, as the terrifying force within him fully erupted, fully channeling into the long spear.
At the tip of the spear, a faint yellow light flowed unnoticed.
You should know.
Under the subtle state of mind, Li Yuan’s fist strength had reached 35,000 kilograms, and now with Origin Power enhancing it, plus the charge… the power of this spear was definitely tremendous.
“Whoosh!”
A straight thrust aimed at the chest of the Second Rank Fish Spirit Clan warrior!
