114: Chapter 114 Clash of Titans

The competition of the qualifying tournament was nearing its end.

Today, it was Shenfeng Academy versus Shrek Academy.

At this moment, on the arena stage, Feng Xiaotian and Tang San stood facing each other.

Before the match, they had reached a consensus to decide the victor between the two of them in a one-on-one duel.

This was undoubtedly a true clash of titans and the most eye-catching highlight of the entire qualifying tournament stage.

...

"The match begins!"

As soon as the referee's voice fell, the third spirit ring at Feng Xiaotian's feet lit up first: "Third Spirit Ability, Storm Wings!"

Wind elements rapidly gathered behind him, and in the blink of an eye, a pair of huge cyan wings unfurled.

With one flap of the wings, he used the force to rise into the air, hovering steadily several meters above Tang San, occupying an absolute aerial advantage.

Immediately after, the fourth spirit ring at Feng Xiaotian's feet suddenly lit up.

"Fourth Spirit Ability, Wind Blade Tornado."

The airflow above the arena suddenly turned violent, and a huge cyan tornado formed out of thin air, sweeping towards Tang San below at an extremely fast speed.

This tornado was not only terrifying in its momentum, but its interior was also filled with countless incomparably sharp wind blades.

Moreover, its range was so wide that it covered nearly half of the arena, completely sealing off the possibility of Tang San escaping using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track.

Tang San's pupils constricted, and he decisively abandoned the idea of dodging.

He let out a low shout, gripped the Clear Sky Hammer tightly with both hands, and the third spirit ring at his feet lit up: "Third Spirit Ability, Whirlwind Wild Dance!"

A black whirlwind erupted fiercely with him as the center, like an indestructible black barrier, meeting the incoming cyan tornado.

Sss, sss, sss...

The cyan and black whirlwinds collided violently, countless wind blades scraping against the Clear Sky Hammer, emitting harsh friction and cutting sounds.

Feng Xiaotian hovered in mid-air, controlling the Wind Blade Tornado with all his might, a trace of gravity flashing in his eyes.

He knew the power of this fourth Spirit Ability of his; an ordinary Spirit King could not stop it at all...

Finally, after more than ten seconds of intense confrontation, the cyan tornado began to shrink, and its power gradually weakened.

Feng Xiaotian took the initiative to restrain his Soul Power output, and the huge tornado slowly dissipated.

Tang San's Spirit Ability also slowly subsided. One could see sweat beads on his forehead, and his breathing was slightly rapid; clearly, the previous confrontation had consumed him quite a bit.

Just at this moment, the second spirit ring at Feng Xiaotian's feet instantly lit up: "Second Spirit Ability, Twin Wolf Possession!"

A low wolf howl echoed in the air, Feng Xiaotian's figure expanded by a circle, and an even more powerful aura rose from within his body.

His attack, defense, and speed were all increased by fifty percent in every aspect.

"Tang San, take this next move well!" Feng Xiaotian's voice came from the air, "Storm Devil Wolf Thirty Consecutive Slashes!"

In these few years, Feng Xiaotian had followed Ji Xuan's advice, putting most of his energy into the improvement of his Soul Power Rank, and had very rarely practiced his self-created Spirit Ability, Storm Devil Wolf Consecutive Slashes.

Nowadays, he had only cultivated this consecutive slash technique to the level of thirty slashes.

However, after consuming that Immortal Plant, his perception and control over wind elements had reached a brand new Realm; the wind was like an extension of his own arm in his hands.

This made every one of his slashes far surpass the past, and coupled with the guidance Ji Xuan had once privately given him, it perfected a few small flaws.

Therefore, the individual power of each slash in his thirty consecutive slashes was far stronger than the original.

In other words, even though there were only thirty slashes, it was far superior to thirty-six slashes.

Feng Xiaotian's figure disappeared the instant his voice fell.

This was the speed of him utilizing wind elements to the extreme, making his movement trajectory like the wind, difficult to capture.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared directly in front of Tang San, the first slash already touching his face.

Tang San's pupils constricted sharply, and every hair on his body stood on end instantly!

He didn't even have time to circulate Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, nor did he have time to cast any Spirit Ability; relying entirely on combat instinct, he lifted the Clear Sky Hammer upwards.

Clang—!

This collision was not a bombardment of power, but a penetrating impact from a point to a surface.

This slash of Feng Xiaotian's gathered all his power at the tip of the wind blade, and combined with that eerie speed, the destructive power was extremely terrifying.

Tang San only felt his entire right arm instantly go numb, and for the first time in a head-on collision, the Clear Sky Hammer almost slipped from his hands.

He let out a muffled groan and retreated seven or eight steps, only just managing to dissipate the force and stabilize his figure, but the blood in his body was already churning.

Feng Xiaotian's figure, utilizing the reaction force generated by the collision, turned back at an eerie angle.

Seeing the second slash had already arrived through the air...

Tang San's footwork suddenly steadied, his knees slightly bent, and gripping the Clear Sky Hammer with both hands, he instantly unleashed the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method.

Clang—!

The Clear Sky Hammer, neither off by a hair nor a fraction, met Feng Xiaotian's second slash perfectly.

Tang San used the force to turn, his second hammer already poised and ready to strike.

A cold light flashed in Feng Xiaotian's eyes, his offensive not stopping for a moment.

The third slash, fourth slash, fifth slash... The cyan trajectories of wind slashed towards Tang San from every angle.

Tang San also continued to wave the Clear Sky Hammer to meet the attacks, his power stacking layer by layer with each collision.

Clang! Clang! Clang!...

The collision sounds became increasingly dense and heavier.

Until Feng Xiaotian had already slashed twenty-nine times...

"Storm Devil Wolf Thirty Slashes!"

The instant his voice fell, an edge condensed to the extreme slashed out instantly!

Almost simultaneously, Tang San's Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method had also accumulated to the limit he could currently handle.

Boom—!!!

The moment the attacks collided, a terrifying wave of Qi exploded, sweeping across the entire field!

In the end, after merely stalling for an instant, Tang San flew backward like a kite with a broken string, the Clear Sky Hammer fell from his hands, and he slammed heavily outside the arena, a mouthful of blood spraying out.

On the arena.

Feng Xiaotian landed staggeringly, his face pale as paper, his right arm trembling uncontrollably.

But he was still standing; although his aura was chaotic and his Soul Power was greatly consumed, he was clearly a cut above Tang San.

Rank 57 versus Rank 54; the difference of three Ranks of Soul Power was the key to deciding the victory.

As Tang San went out of bounds, the referee loudly announced: "The winner, Shenfeng Academy, Feng Xiaotian!"

As the voice fell, the direction of Shenfeng Academy erupted into earth-shaking cheers.

At Blazing Academy, Huo Wu stood up, looking at Feng Xiaotian on the stage, the corners of her lips curling up unconsciously.

And on Shrek's side, everyone had already rushed down from the spectator stands, surrounding Tang San.

...

The preliminary rounds had concluded.

First place, Shenfeng Academy, undefeated.

Second place, Shrek Academy; previously when battling Blazing Academy, because Tang San was seriously injured, relying solely on Spirit Ancestor Dai Mubai, he couldn't hold the line alone, and they ultimately lost only one match.

Third place, Blazing Academy.

Fourth place, Tianshui Academy.

Fifth place, Thunder Academy.

...

In this qualifying tournament, Shenfeng and Blazing did not directly forfeit, but chose to spar with restraint.

Although Shui Binger's strength was outstanding, she was ultimately unable to contend with Feng Xiaotian, the Huo Wu siblings, and the rising Tang San.
