“It’s just electricity, not yet thunder.”
Cao Yaling adjusted her glasses, discerned the reality behind the scene, and informed Chen Mobai.
“Although Thunder method is difficult to practice, there are countless wonders and unique skills in the world of immortals. Xue Luan from the Five Thunder Sect may have practiced ‘Ascent Thunder Jue’, and maybe he has successfully transformed his Spiritual Root into the Thunder Spiritual Root.”
Class president Mo Simin, knowing that Chen Mobai doesn’t pay much attention to these things, pointed out the representative of the Five Thunder Sect in the spectators’ gallery after Cao Yaling finished speaking. Indeed, the representative was already standing up, looking at Xue Luan with new respect.
“How is Yan Bingxuan doing?”
Speaking of the Technique for Enhancing Spiritual Roots, Chen Mobai suddenly remembered his classmate who had helped him before and asked about her.
“She probably needs a good rest. Although Yan Feng didn’t intend to hurt her seriously, her usage of Xuan Ice Change completely drained her Spiritual Power and somewhat damaged her foundation.”
“Is it serious?”
“Don’t worry, she has used this opportunity to completely transform her foundation into Xuan Bing Jue, which can be considered as achieving her original goal of participating in the Magic Duel.”
After hearing Mo Simin’s words, Chen Mobai nodded slightly.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
At this moment, Xue Luan, who had used the Purple Electrical Cultivation on the stage, suddenly doubled his speed and completely suppressed Shi Yuanqing.
If it weren’t for his Green Jade Talisman, which provided a strong defense, and his Porcelain Armor that covered his entire body without a blind spot, he would have been pierced through long ago.
Even so, the layers of jade-like porcelain tiles on Shi Yuanqing’s body started to crack under the impact of Purple Electric Fist Strength.
Traces of Electricity Penetrating Power seeped in, causing his skin to redden and bleed.
In no time, half of Shi Yuanqing’s body turned bloody red, his clothes tattered and he was about to be blasted off the stage by Xue Luan.
“It’s over.”
Xue Luan, full of afterimages on the stage, raised his right fist, a cluster of purple lightning gathered around it. Like a roaring thunder, it carried a tremendous force, and he heavily pounded it into the center of Shi Yuanqing’s chest.
Crack!
The Green Jade Talisman that covered his entire body finally reached its limit. After a harsh sound, it broke completely, scattered into the sky and disappeared.
Whoosh!
But at the same time, Shi Yuanqing formed his fingers into a sword, gathering dust particles into a thin earthen sword, and stabbed it into Xue Luan’s right shoulder at the moment his fist hit his chest.
In the ensuing spray of blood, the two opponents each extended their other hand, disregarding their own injuries, and punched each other again.
Splat!
Shi Yuanqing couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of fresh blood, and fell to the edge of the stage.
On the other hand, Xue Luan was also in a bad state, he retreated to the center of the stage, his right hand hanging limply, having lost all sensation due to his shoulder blade being pierced.
“You really are different from before.”
Despite his disabled hand, Xue Luan stood fiercely, lightning flickering between his brows. His momentum seemed to become stronger after being wounded, as if his battle-hardened nature had been aroused.
“If you were the same as before, with only these skills, then you would have lost to me in no time.”
Shi Yuanqing raised his hand, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and despite the sunken wound on his chest, his blood-soaked skin emitted a jade-like glow.
“Hahaha…”
Upon hearing this, Xue Luan couldn’t help but laugh out loud. Then, his eyes turned sharp, and the previously flickering electricity suddenly intensified into streaks of purple lightning.
“You make me want to kill you.”
Shi Yuanqing gave a cold smile, reached out his both hands, and grabbed at the stage. The dust fragments crushed in their fight, under his Divine Sense control, covered his entire body.
“Useless. My Purple Electrical Cultivation broke your Green Jade Talisman. Your Rock Soil Armor won’t be able to withstand two of my punches.”
Even as Xue Luan was speaking, he had already rushed to Shi Yuanqing, his left hand powerfully aiming a punch right at the wound on Shi Yuanqing’s chest.
Whoosh!
Shi Yuanqing opened his mouth and a jet of fire spewed out, covering his entire body.
Xue Luan, not wanting another lose-lose tactic, immediately activated his Purple Electrical Cultivation and quickly pulled back.
But at this moment, Shi Yuanqing charged towards him.
Bang!
The two once again sparred mid-air, Xue Luan continued to retreat. Having no other choice, he activated the Gold Armor Talisman that covered his entire body. Then, amid the intertwining of purple lightning and the golden light, he rammed head-on into the fiery Shi Yuanqing.
A thud echoed!
Shi Yuanqing was sent flying, but Xue Luan was also in pain. An unknown Ceramic Sword managed to stab him in the waist, causing another injury.
As blood gushed, Xue Luan pulled out the Ceramic Sword from his waist and crushed it. He lifted his head, with his pupil showing unprecedented frenzy.
“Interesting, you are the first one in the same realm that could inflict such damage on me.”
Shi Yuanqing somehow donned a layer of Porcelain Armor, but it definitely wasn’t from an illegal usage of the Green Jade Talisman, otherwise he would have been knocked down by the crowd watching the duel by now.
He struggled to stand up on the stage, spitting out the blood from his throat.
“You’re wrong, we’re not in the same realm.”
Saying this, Shi Yuanqing reached into the void. Dust gathered onto his hands and the broken Porcelain Armor, subsequently covered by flames. Two shining snow white Ceramic Swords and a brand new Porcelain Armor were formed in the scorching flames.
“Great, he has made a breakthrough”.
Shi Jingjing, who knew best about Shi Yuanqing’s cultivation technique, looked at the stage where his cousin effortlessly formed the snow white Ceramic Sword and Porcelain Armor, her face filled with surprise and delight.
At first, Chen Mobai didn’t understand which aspect she was referring to when she mentioned a “breakthrough”.
But soon he detected that although Shi Yuanqing was weakened, his spiritual power fluctuation was even more vigorous than before, promptly understanding.
So he made a breakthrough in battle and reached the ninth level of Qi Cultivation.
Could he be the highlight of this Magic Duel?
“Perfect, when I knock someone like you off the stage, then my invincibility in battles is significant!”
However, seeing Shi Yuanqing breakthrough to the ninth level of Qi Cultivation, Xue Luan wasn’t scared at all. Instead, he became even more fanatical and with his only usable arm left, raised his Purple Electrical Cultivation to a peak far beyond his physical limits.
Rumble!
The sky seemed to crack open with a thunderous boom. The clouds grew dark, and a cluster of menacing thunderclouds gradually gathered, emitting blinding light.
“If you attract that thunderbolt into your body, you might die.”
The representative of the Five Thunder Sect suddenly spoke, seriously advising Xue Luan.
“I would rather die than lose!”
Xue Luan laughed loudly and raised his left arm.
Woosh!
At the same time, Shi Yuanqing also burst out all his spiritual power, swinging his two snow white Ceramic Swords and executed his most stunningly brilliant Sword Light.
Rumble!
A bolt of lightning struck down from the heavens, directly hitting Xue Luan on top of his head, incinerating his hair, but also igniting his stalled Qj mechanism.
Without hesitating, he clenched his fist, with the lightning enclosed within, and met Shi Yuanqing’s Sword Light head-on.
In an enormous sonic boom, blinding light erupted.
Even Cao Yaling and Shi Jingjing couldn’t see clearly..
