55: Chapter 55 Taking Action

Boom, boom, boom!

The sound of violent explosions swept through the area.

A spear thrust out, directly breaking and crushing Zhou Yuanpeng's proud fatal move.

Xiao Xuance swung the long spear in his hand fiercely, and then his figure flickered rapidly.

Gales howled all around.

A shield appeared in front of Xiao Xuance, and he rushed directly toward Zhou Yuanpeng like a humanoid beast.

Just like Lin Shen.

This Xiao Xuance also practiced Dual Cultivation of both Qi and body; not only was his cultivation in Spiritual Qi at the Qi Refining Peak, but his Physical Body cultivation was also the same.

If he has some opportunities and steps into Foundation Establishment overnight,

relying on physical Foundation Establishment and Spiritual Qi Foundation Establishment, Xiao Xuance's Foundation and combat strength will definitely be extraordinary in the future, and fighting above his realm will definitely be a piece of cake.

In the future, he even has hopes for the Golden Core Dao.

"Dual Cultivation of both Qi and body? No wonder Fellow Daoist still dared to come up to the stage to challenge me; I didn't expect you to have such a deep Foundation!"

Watching Xiao Xuance charge at him like a humanoid beast, a look of surprise flashed through the eyes of Zhou Yuanpeng opposite him.

At this moment, he dared not be careless any longer.

He hurriedly dodged to the side, rapidly waving the Low Grade Spiritual Artifact long saber in his hand, and wave after wave of terrifying blazing Saber Qi swept out, stacking layer upon layer.

This was his proud fatal move—Blazing Triple Waves!

He had once relied on this move to ruthlessly slay five Qi Refining Peak Cultivators while executing missions in the wild.

The Blazing Triple Waves swept over.

The towering flames, wrapped in terrifying blazing Saber Qi, seemed as if they were going to swallow Xiao Xuance whole.

But under this terrifying offensive, Xiao Xuance thrust the long spear in his hand forward fiercely, and a terrifying water-attribute Spiritual Qi erupted.

With a single spear thrust, under the outbreak of water-attribute Spiritual Qi, a huge wave swept over, condensing onto the tip of the spear and turning into an endlessly sharp spear light.

Water overcomes fire!

Break it with force!

Under the dual blessing of Qi Refining and Body Refining cultivation, Xiao Xuance directly tore Zhou Yuanpeng's fatal move, Blazing Triple Waves, to shreds with a single spear strike.

At the same time.

Taking advantage of this wave of offensive, Xiao Xuance leaped up fiercely, sweeping the long spear in his hand horizontally.

Having just used his fatal move, Zhou Yuanpeng's internal Spiritual Qi was at a time of heavy consumption.

He also hadn't expected Xiao Xuance to crack his fatal move so effortlessly.

Thus, he couldn't react in time at all.

Puchi!

A mouthful of blood sprayed out.

Zhou Yuanpeng was directly struck in the chest by Xiao Xuance's spear, his body flying backward and turning several somersaults in the air before staggering to a stop beneath the stage.

Clutching his chest and wiping the blood flowing from the corner of his mouth, Zhou Yuanpeng looked at Xiao Xuance on the stage with shocked eyes.

Too strong!

Originally, he thought that after experiencing eight consecutive wins, as long as no unexpected accidents occurred afterward, he would basically be able to obtain the opportunity for guidance from the Qin Family Golden Core Old Ancestor.

Yet he hadn't expected an even more monstrous Xiao Xuance to be waiting behind.

A total of no more than three spear strikes were made.

In three spear strikes, he knocked him off the stage!

And this was merely a sparring match!

If it were placed in the wild during a life-and-death battle, I'm afraid Xiao Xuance could completely pierce straight through his chest on the third strike.

"Thank you for letting me win!"

Xiao Xuance smiled and cupped his fists at Zhou Yuanpeng below the stage.

Then his gaze no longer looked at Zhou Yuanpeng; holding the long spear, his gaze swept downward: "I wonder which other Fellow Daoist will come forward to offer guidance?"

As for Zhou Yuanpeng, he was merely his defeated opponent, nothing more than a stepping stone for him to make a name for himself today; what was there worth paying attention to?

As Xiao Xuance defeated Zhou Yuanpeng, the people under the stage couldn't help but look at Xiao Xuance with strange expressions.

They originally thought Zhou Yuanpeng was already strong enough, continuously defeating eight Qi Refining Peak level Prodigies.

Yet they hadn't expected there to be an even more terrifying Xiao Xuance, who knocked the previously arrogant Zhou Yuanpeng off the stage in merely three spear strikes.

Such strength, how could he have remained unknown prior to this?

Could it be that the Foundation of the Shuiyue Sect is actually this strong?

Of course, there were also people who refused to accept this.

Driven by youthful vigor, they believed that the reason Xiao Xuance was able to quickly defeat Zhou Yuanpeng was none other than relying on his Physical Body cultivation.

As long as they were cautious and careful, not letting Xiao Xuance approach them, they would be able to achieve victory from it.

Several more people stepped onto the stage.

Without exception, none of them were Xiao Xuance's opponents.

Most of them were knocked off the stage by Xiao Xuance in just one or two spear strikes, appearing even more unbearable than Zhou Yuanpeng before.

In a short span of two or three incense sticks of time.

Under Xiao Xuance's concise and rapid battles, he had already secured more than a dozen consecutive wins.

In the VIP seating area, the gazes of the two Shuiyue Sect Elders looking at Xiao Xuance were filled with gratification and satisfaction.

"Hahaha, the Xiao Family of Heishi City has indeed produced a Prodigy; if his Foundation is laid firmly, after breaking through to Foundation Establishment in the future and practicing diligently, it is not impossible for him to prove the Golden Core Dao."

Qin Yuanming, who was sitting in the main seat, let out a loud laugh, casting his gaze toward Leng Qiuyue and Seventh Elder Xiong Dahai beside him.

"Indeed not bad, this kid suits my tastes!"

Seventh Elder Xiong Dahai nodded in satisfaction as he looked at Xiao Xuance.

Although Xiao Xuance possessed only a Three-Spiritual Root, relying on such formidable strength, coupled with Dual Cultivation of both Physical Body and Spiritual Qi, as long as his Foundation was laid firmly before Foundation Establishment, his hope of breaking through to the Golden Core Realm in the future would not be smaller than those with Double Spiritual Roots.

This naturally caused a sense of cherishing talent to rise in his heart.

"I think it should be ending soon here; if there is still no one to challenge him, the champion of this arena martial competition and the final hunter can only be Xiao Xuance of our Shuiyue Sect!"

Leng Qiuyue, with a cold expression, swept her gaze across Xiao Xuance and also nodded in satisfaction.

Watching the two Golden Core Realm Elders of the Shuiyue Sect hold such an attitude toward Xiao Xuance, a trace of a smile couldn't help but appear at the corner of Qin Yuanming's mouth.

At this moment, he already had some calculations in his heart.

If there is an opportunity, perhaps he can maximize the benefits and allow his Qin Family to establish a deeper connection with the Shuiyue Sect.

As time passed by.

It was approaching the time for the banquet to start.

Lin Shen had waited on the arena for a long time, and seeing that no one dared to go up and challenge Xiao Xuance, he finally shook his head.

It was almost ending; if he didn't go up now, he wouldn't even get a sip of soup.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, you are..."

Watching Lin Shen beside them suddenly move and fly rapidly toward the arena, Sun Liancheng and Wang Weidong beside him couldn't help widening their eyes in astonishment.

No way?

Are you still going up to deliver food now?

What is the meaning of this?

Obviously, Xiao Xuance has already dominated the arena leaderboards; even if you go up to deliver food again, Xiao Xuance won't appreciate your favor.

Amidst the uncomprehending gazes of Sun Liancheng and Wang Weidong, Lin Shen, dressed in fluttering white robes with Sword Qi blooming on his body, landed in the middle of the arena.

"Fellow Daoist Lin?"

Seeing Lin Shen rashly step onto the arena, Xiao Xuance couldn't help but frown slightly.

He hadn't given any hints; according to their original agreement, Lin Shen should be obediently staying under the arena at this moment.

"Time is running out, and my hands suddenly itched, so I have specially come to spar with Fellow Daoist Xiao."

Lin Shen spoke with a smile, stretching out his right arm, and the Thundering Sword blooming with terrifying thunder power instantly appeared in the palm of his hand.
