Chapter 385: 385
The fight between Xu Yuanzhi and Si Xingkong grew extremely fierce . No one thought that a student of Omen Ridge could struggle against the fourth-ranked master among the Saint Xu Gentry juniors for so long .
"The Omen Ridge student seems to have only reached the Mid Stage of the Heaven Realm," an outstanding individual from the East Region Saint Mansions observed . "He is withstanding Xu Yuanzhi with physical qualities, rather than profound cultivation . "
Thanks to reaching the Dawn State of the Heaven Realm, this person had gained insight into Si Xingkong's own realm .
"If memory serves me, Xu Yuanzhi has reached the Advanced Stage of the Heaven Realm . Is the Omen Ridge student superior to Xu Yuanzhi in terms of physical quality?"
The outstanding individual from the East Region Saint Mansions shook his head . "Not necessarily," he said . "Xu Yuanzhi hasn't yet used his full strength during this duel . However, the student of Omen Ridge has been pushed to the limit; he'll be defeated any moment now . "
On the Stairway to Heaven, the the gifted students of the Saint Xu Gentry assaulted Si Xingkong and Chang Qiqi more fiercely .
Seven or eight gifted students launched their attacks at the same time, besieging Si Xingkong and Chang Qiqi . The students strongly pressured the two with all kinds of martial techniques, including Celestial Bodyshield Genuine Qi and the Light of Thunderbolt .
Even after they had refined Dragon Blood and attained ample strength, their opponents were still not weak; they were students of the Saint Gentry, after all .
"Xu Yuanzhi; if you can't defeat him, I'll disable him for you," A dark-hued female student of the Saint Xu Gentry said coldly .
Her name was Xu Su . She had strong power thanks to reaching the Advanced Stage of the Heaven Realm . She ranked fifth among the juniors of Saint Xu Gentry, a little bit lower than Xu Yuanzhi .
Xu Yuanzhi laughed grimly . "He's just a hillbilly from a backwater . Who says I can't defeat him? I was just using him to practice my palm techniques . If I display my full strength, I'll disable him with just three moves . "
This was why Xu Yuanzhi fought with Si Xingkong for so long; he wanted to display his strength before all the people present .
He rarely got the chance to fight on the Stairway to Heaven . Only in the Saint Academy examination could he have such an opportunity to stand in the limelight .
Perhaps even those at the Half-Saint level would become invested in this battle .
"Such nonsense . Who said prodigies can't be born in a backwater like Omen Ridge?"
Duanmu Xingling rushed up the Stairway to Heaven . She mobilized the Genuine Qi and released the golden Dragon force within . Two small dragon horns grew on each side of her forehead .
"PHHT!"
Golden lightning arced between the two horns, pouring forth and surging through her entire body . Lightning gathered in her palm .
BAM!
BAM!
She threw her palms outwards . Two students of the Saint Xu Gentry were blasted back down the Stairway, spitting blood from their mouths .
Duanmu Xingling shook out her arms, and condensed the golden lightning into a long lightning sword . She swung her sword toward the void space, piercing through the Celestial Bodyshields of three gifted students at the same time .
"Cloud-Churning and Rain-Making . "
"Vigorous Qi of Nine Serenities . "
"Overbearing Fist Strength . "
Three students immediately unleashed their martial techniques . Some threw palms and some swung fists . None of them, though, could withstand Duanmu Xingling's Sword Breath . They tumbled down the Stairway like gourds bouncing on the ground .
Because her Sword Breath contained ice power, these three students were coated in a layer of white ice crystals .
Warriors weren't alloyed to carry weapons on the the Stairway to Heaven . However, if one reached the Peak of Sword Following the Heart, they could use Celestial Bodyshield Genuine Qi to condense a sword .
Duanmu Xingling condensed an enormously powerful Genuine Qi sword, containing both the lightning of Thunder Dragon and the force of Icing Cold . No ordinary student could withstand such congealed power .
"Has another Omen Ridge powerhouse appeared?"
"Omen Ridge is just a barren wilderness . How can it give birth to so many powerhouses?"
. . .
Duanmu Xingling's performance shocked the audience; many couldn't believe their eyes .
At the same time, Duanmu Xingling's recent comments had displeased and offended nearly all the attending Sage Gentries and descendants of Half-Saint families .
A descendant of one Half-Saint family snorted . "How dare these Omen Ridge students act so haughtily while displaying their slight skills before us?" he said .
"I hope that the Saint Xu Gentry is strong enough to crack down on these inexperienced, greenhorn hillbillies," Another Half-Saint family descendant said coldly as they flexed some of their finger joints . "I don't feel inclined to intervene myself . "
Zhang Ruochen had long known that Duanmu Xingling loved throwing the world into chaos and had a knack for stirring up trouble . This time, though, she had surpassed all expectations and dared to involve all the Half-saint families and Saint Gentries .
How will this all end?
Everything had gone out of control . The gifted students of Saint Xu Gentry were very angry . Additionally, those Saint Gentries and descendants of Half-Saint families were also eager for a fight to chastise the students of Omen Ridge .
"Have you discovered whether Duanmu Xingling's power is much stronger than Eldest Brother's? Chen Xi'er asked . "Does she hide her actual strength most days? Is she displaying her truth strength today?"
