168: Chapter 168 The Powerful Lu Youyou!!

He took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down quickly.

Since things had come to this, avoidance was pointless; the only option was to fight with everything he had!

His gaze quickly swept over his team members, first landing on Qin Yan, who was currently closing his eyes to regulate his breathing, before he shook his head.

Qin Yan had just gone through a fierce battle and needed time to recover; it wasn't suitable for him to fight again immediately.

Next, his gaze passed over Leng Feng.

Leng Feng's strength wasn't weak, but facing the unfathomable Jingdu University of Martial Arts, he might struggle to project the imposing momentum of Modu University of Martial Arts.

After a moment of contemplation, his gaze finally fixed on Lu Youyou.

"Youyou!" Instructor Fang Yan's voice was steady and decisive. "This match concerns our morale and the glory of our Modu University of Martial Arts!"

"You will take the lead. Give it your all and show them the true spirit of Modu University of Martial Arts!"

"Understood, Instructor! Just watch! I'll definitely do you proud and bring back a victory to start us off!"

Upon hearing this, Lu Youyou's eyes instantly ignited with a raging battle spirit, and her previous solemnity vanished completely.

With that, she grabbed the giant hammer leaning beside her and, with firm and confident strides, walked toward Arena Number Ten with her head held high!

On Arena Number Ten.

When her gaze fell upon the opponent sent by Jingdu University of Martial Arts, her spirited large eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.

The corners of her lips then curled into a confident arc as she thought to herself:

'This one... is in the bag!'

The reason was simple: Jingdu University of Martial Arts hadn't sent out any of their hidden aces this time.

Instead, they sent the one who was publicly recognized as the lowest-ranked among their official members.

"Both sides ready—match, start!"

As soon as the referee's command fell, Lu Youyou moved!

She gave a sharp cry, her vitality and blood surging throughout her body.

The heavy giant hammer seemed as light as a feather in her hands as she raised it high, creating a terrifying, whistling wind from the hammer!

She had no intention of testing the waters; right from the start, she directly unleashed her famous signature technique—

"Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique!"

The first strike was heavy and powerful, like a mountain pressing down, forcing the opponent to retreat repeatedly, barely able to parry.

The second strike followed seamlessly, with speed and power surpassing the previous one; the wind from the hammer even tore the opponent's sleeves!

By the third strike, it already carried an unstoppable momentum of absolute suppression!

Once Lu Youyou's hammer technique unfolded, it was like a sweeping gale or a torrential downpour.

Each strike was stronger than the last, and each strike was faster than the last!

That continuous, escalating offensive instantly submerged the Jingdu University of Martial Arts member completely!

The opponent couldn't even organize an effective counterattack.

They could only struggle to hold on amidst the increasingly violent shadows of the hammer.

Their vitality and blood were shaken into a chaotic churn, the webbing of their thumbs had already split open, and blood stained their weapon.

From the very beginning, the Jingdu University of Martial Arts member fell into an absolute disadvantage!

Finally, as Lu Youyou's seventh strike fell with the fluidity of moving clouds and flowing water—

"BOOM!!!"

With a massive bang, the weapon in the Jingdu University of Martial Arts member's hand could no longer be held and flew out of their grasp!

The giant hammer slammed solidly against their crossed, blocking arms!

"Crack!" The clear sound of bone fracturing rang out!

Then, the entire person was sent flying backward off the ground without any suspense, spraying a large mouthful of blood in the air.

Tracing a tragic arc, they crashed heavily against the protective shield at the edge of the arena,

then slid down limply, completely unconscious.

An instant kill! Or rather, seven strikes to seal the deal!

From the start of the match to its end, barely a dozen breaths of time had passed!

The first member of Jingdu University of Martial Arts had already ended in a crushing defeat!

As one of Modu University of Martial Arts's top three combatants, Lu Youyou's strength was roughly on par with the second-ranked Lu Qingfeng.

Defeating a bottom-ranked official member of Jingdu University of Martial Arts was, naturally, an easy task.

The referee immediately stepped forward to check, then loudly announced: "Arena Number Ten, first match! Modu University of Martial Arts, Lu Youyou wins!"

...

Inside the Jingdu University of Martial Arts preparation area, the atmosphere was somewhat heavy.

The instructor watched the member being quickly carried down; his expression didn't change, but his gaze grew a bit more solemn.

He said in a low voice, "How powerful Lu Youyou is. The 'Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique' truly lives up to its reputation.

Once the offensive begins, it's like a tide, each wave stronger than the last, making it extremely difficult to withstand."

He then turned his gaze to the burly member beside him who also used a giant hammer as a weapon—Li Li.

"Li Li!" the instructor said. "This match, you're up! You and Lu Youyou use the same weapon and both follow a fierce and forceful path.

Give it your all; you must defeat her and dampen the arrogance of Modu University of Martial Arts!"

"Understood, Instructor!" Li Li's voice was like a resonant bell, a strong battle intent igniting in his eyes.

He picked up his pitch-black giant hammer, which was as large as a door panel, and strode onto the arena.

Watching Li Li's departing back, the Jingdu University of Martial Arts instructor's brow furrowed slightly,

a trace of hidden worry surfacing in his heart.

With his seasoned eyes, he could foresee that Li Li's battle would likely... be fraught with grim prospects.

However, when his gaze swept over Lin Qingyue and Chen Tian sitting quietly in the back—the "Twin Stars" that Jingdu University of Martial Arts was so proud of—

the worry in his heart instantly vanished, replaced by immense steadiness and confidence.

'Even if Li Li loses, he will certainly consume Lu Youyou's stamina and vitality to the greatest extent.'

'By the third match, Lu Youyou will be at the end of her rope. No matter who we send up, victory will be certain!'

...

On the arena, Lu Youyou looked at Li Li as he stepped up, especially at the giant hammer in his hand that was not at all inferior to her own.

Instead of fear, her large eyes sparkled with an even more excited and blazing battle intent!

"Match—start!"

Following the referee's order, the two geniuses, both using giant hammers, wasted no words.

Simultaneously letting out a thunderous roar, they charged at each other!

"BOOM!" "CLANG!" "THUD!"

The booming sounds of the giant hammers colliding, like war drums on a battlefield, instantly echoed throughout the entire Arena Number Ten area!

The sound was dull and overbearing, making eardrums buzz and even causing the ground beneath their feet to seemingly tremble slightly!

Lu Youyou's petite frame wielding such a massive war hammer created a sense of beauty and power with extreme contrast!

"Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique!" She unleashed her signature skill again, hammer shadows sweeping like a gale!

Li Li was not to be outdone, his muscles bulging all over his body, vitality and blood surging beneath his bronze skin.

He roared as he swung his giant hammer: "Eighteen Mountain-Shaking Blasts!"

The moment they engaged, they both went all out with their full power!

They abandoned all flashy feints, pushing their strength and vitality to the limit.

They engaged in the most direct and violent frontal clash!

Every time the giant hammers crossed, they erupted with dazzling sparks and visible shockwaves of air!

The characteristics of Lu Youyou's hammer technique were displayed vividly at this moment—her attacks grew faster and faster, and their power grew stronger and stronger!

Like a stormy sea that was constantly accelerating and stacking its force!

For the first ten strikes, the two were still evenly matched, with neither gaining the upper hand.
