Chapter 199: Chapter 167 Xiang Dingqian Goes to Battle_2 Chapter 199: Chapter 167 Xiang Dingqian Goes to Battle_2 Yan Ziyu said speechlessly, “He is Xiang Dingkun’s brother.”
Yang Xu was stunned.
“Xiang Dingkun’s brother?
Then why is he at Demon Capital Academy!”
“Brotherly discord!” Yan Ziyu rolled her eyes at him.
“Do you not go online?
Don’t you know this?”
Yang Xu snorted, “Why would I bother knowing so much about their Capitol City and Demon Capital affairs?
I’m not that nosy.”
“Oh, are you calling me nosy?” Yan Ziyu raised her eyebrows, squinting at Yang Xu.
“It seems you weren’t seriously injured earlier.
Do you want to lie in the infirmary now?”
Yang Xu swallowed.
“No…
no!”
The two of them exchanged words, water and fire incompatible.
It seemed they often bickered.
However, Ji Xuan ignored Yang Xu and Yan Ziyu.
Instead, he slightly frowned while watching the two people standing on the stage.
For this match, Ji Xuan had thought Su Yuan would first send out Zhang Tai from Bronze Middle Stage.
Instead, he directly sent out Xiang Dingqian.
If Xu Wenshu lost this round, the next turn would be Demon Capital’s challenge.
Then if they challenged their Demon Academy, it would be quite unfavorable…
“So it’s started.
Xiang Dingqian…” At Capitol Capital College, Xiang Dingkun looked at Xiang Dingqian on the stage, and his attention became a bit more focused.
The people around him like Ji Cheng didn’t speak either.
Clearly, everyone knew about Xiang Dingkun’s brother and didn’t want to comment.
On the stage, Xiang Dingqian took out a bright silver spear that shone brightly!
Xiang Dingqian knew very well that to face the exchange competition, he would need a handy weapon!
This bright silver spear was specifically forged for him by the academy’s artifact refiners before the exchange competition at a significant cost.
On the other side, the spectacled boy took out a wide-backed iron ring sword that didn’t match his temperament at all.
This sword was four fingers wide.
There were nine metal rings on the back of the blade.
When it was swung, a sound of clashing metal rang out.
Both sides stood firm, and the battle began.
Xiang Dingqian and Xu Wenshu moved simultaneously.
Both of their movements were extremely fast, and in an instant, they clashed together.
When the knife and spear met, it was unexpected that Xu Wenshu, who appeared thin and scholarly, had strength not much weaker than Xiang Dingqian.
What was more surprising was that a rapid sound came from the nine rings on Xu Wenshu’s broad knife, making Xiang Dingqian’s eyes lose focus for a moment.
Although he quickly reacted, Xu Wenshu’s next slash had already arrived, forcing Xiang Dingqian to respond hastily.
They engaged in combat at high speed, with the knife and spear constantly clashing.
Xiang Dingqian seemed like a high-ping warrior, with each clash accompanied by the iron rings’ sound, causing his movements to slow slightly.
In such circumstances, he couldn’t fully exert his strength and star power.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Tai frowned and said, “This Xu Wenshu from Demon Academy is quite interesting.
His knife seems to be able to affect Xiang Dingqian through sound.”
Su Yuan watched for a moment and shook his head lightly, showing no concern.
“Sound attacks are indeed rare.
But he’s only relying on the sword’s trait.
Truly skilled Star Card Masters in sound attacks are much more troublesome.
Trying to suppress Xiang Dingqian with these small tricks is far from enough.”
Sure enough, as soon as Su Yuan spoke, several strands of Heavenly Gang Energy surged from Xiang Dingqian and entwined the bright silver spear.
A series of dense, crisp knocking sounds immediately rang out.
As the knocking sounds emerged, the interference from the iron ring sword was mostly neutralized!
“Minor trick!”
Xiang Dingqian snorted coldly.
Utilizing the Heavenly Gang Energy wrapped around the spear, he suddenly gathered his star power and swept out with the spear!
Ɲονɡᴑ.сο
Facing Xiang Dingqian’s sweeping spear, Xu Wenshu hastily raised his broad knife to block.
However, the immense force from the spear numbed Xu Wenshu’s hands, causing him to be pushed back several steps!
Without waiting for Xu Wenshu to regain his footing, Xiang Dingqian suddenly advanced, striking with the bright silver spear at high speed.
With the silver energy entwined, each strike of the spear carried immense power.
Piercing, thrusting, pointing, sweeping…
the spear moves came like a storm.
Silver stars flashed chaotically, and in an instant, Xiang Dingqian reversed the situation, suppressing Xu Wenshu entirely!
“Su Yuan, you’re quite right!” Zhang Tai, watching Xiang Dingqian turning the tide, said excitedly, “Xiang Dingqian is remarkable, coming up with such a method!”
Even Su Yuan was somewhat surprised.
He didn’t think Xu Wenshu’s sound interference could suppress Xiang Dingqian, but he hadn’t expected Xiang Dingqian to counter it with “Heavenly Gang Energy striking the spear.”
It wasn’t as easy as it looked.
It required extremely meticulous control of star power and energy!
“With such star power control, the fifth star cave…
no, probably the sixth star cave had already opened two or three star holes at least.”
Su Yuan felt a stir in his heart.
It seemed Xiang Dingqian had truly put in a lot of effort in his cultivation over the past few months.
He had not only forged a blue star artifact, broken through to high stage, but even improved his breathing technique significantly!
“No wonder he trained until he vomited blood and fainted!” Su Yuan recalled the scene during the breathing progress test and couldn’t help but sigh again.
Zhang Tai closely watched the situation on stage and asked, “Su Yuan, what do you think is Xiang Dingqian’s chance of winning this match?”
“Eighty to ninety percent.” Su Yuan replied casually.
“Hmm?” Zhang Tai turned his head in surprise.
“But it’s only just beginning.
Xu Wenshu should have many more tricks up his sleeve, right?”
Su Yuan laughed, “Xu Wenshu is not a Star Card Master specializing in sound power.
His strength in direct combat is less than his opponent’s, yet he focused on fancy tricks…
I think among the five participants from Demon Academy, he’s probably the weakest.
With the boost from Heavenly Gang Energy, Xiang Dingqian’s combat capabilities are very strong.
Even if Xu Wenshu has other tricks, as long as Xiang Dingqian remains steady, he can push through this match.”
This was indeed the case.
Recently, Yang Xu had broken through to high stage, taking the last slot for Bronze Middle Stage in the Demon Academy participants.
So among the new students in Demon Academy who had advanced to Bronze High Stage, there were just five people.
And Xu Wenshu was indeed one of the weaker ones among these five, similar to Yang Xu.
As the fight continued, Xu Wenshu displayed various skills.
Aside from sound attacks, he also used illusion techniques, traps, and other skills.
But none caused significant trouble for Xiang Dingqian.
First, these sound waves, illusions, and traps were of lower grade and level, making their effects limited.
Second, Xiang Dingqian preferred using more star power for stable, steady attacks rather than taking risks.
His advantage grew larger.
A few minutes later…
Xu Wenshu fell to the ground, looking at the huge Hua Ji raised by the Heavenly Gang General beside Xiang Dingqian, and exclaimed, “I concede!”
In the end, Xiang Dingqian summoned the Heavenly Gang General, relying on its powerful combat abilities to finish the battle without even needing enhancement skills.
