56: Chapter 56 Ouyang Ling

Several Ouyang Family Disciples off the stage could no longer restrain themselves and rushed toward the core area to seek reinforcements.

"Damn it, if the Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters in the core area find out that we couldn't even handle an outsider at the fifth level of the Supernatural Realm, wouldn't we be laughed out of existence?" someone complained, clenching their fists.

Someone next to him immediately poured cold water on the idea: "If you aren't afraid of being slapped away by him, go ahead and try!"

The complaints stopped abruptly.

That's right, the few who rushed up just now, weren't they all sent flying by a single slap?

Who would want to suffer that fate for no reason?

Xiang Tian looked down at those off the stage from his vantage point.

A curve appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Weren't you guys acting so tough just a moment ago? Why are you all cowards now?"

"Damn it! I can't take this anymore!"

An angry shout rang out.

A sturdy figure leaped up.

He landed steadily on the arena, causing the stage to tremble slightly.

This person was burly with knotted muscles; he looked like someone not to be trifled with.

Xiang Tian raised an eyebrow.

Finally, someone decent, but in his eyes, it was still just a matter of one slap.

"Slap!"

A crisp and loud slapping sound echoed across the arena.

Xiang Tian barely used any Qi, slapping him with pure Physical Body strength.

[Congratulations to the host for increasing cultivation level by one! Reward: 1000 face-slapping points!]

But to Xiang Tian's surprise, the sturdy man only staggered back a few steps.

His cheek was swollen red, but he wasn't sent flying as the others had been.

"Hmm? Interesting, you can actually withstand one of my slaps?" Xiang Tian said in surprise.

He began to size up the person in front of him again.

Whispers immediately broke out off the stage:

"As expected of Ouyang Qiang! The physique of his Earth Spiritual Root is truly well-deserved!"

"That goes without saying. Ouyang Qiang is a top figure among the branch family Disciples; his defense is practically unsolvable!"

"To be able to slap Ouyang Qiang back, isn't this outsider's strength too terrifying?"

"I thought he just had good luck before, but now it seems he is genuinely strong!"

"..."

Ouyang Qiang covered his swollen cheek and roared: "Thousand-Layer Wall!"

Layers of thick earth walls instantly rose in front of him, stacking up to dozens of layers.

"Come again!" Xiang Tian's eyes narrowed, and he slapped out again.

"Bang!"

After a loud noise.

The earth walls were pierced through by seven layers, but they still stood firmly.

"Damn, it's actually this sturdy?" Xiang Tian clicked his tongue, tapped his feet, and instantly retreated several yards, creating distance. "Since I can't break the defense in close combat, let's try a ranged attack!"

"Phoenix Slash!"

He shouted violently, his right hand gathering blazing red Phoenix Flame.

The fire turned into a crescent moon and slashed fiercely toward the Thousand-Layer Wall.

"Boom——!"

The fire crescent collided with the earth walls, and the violent energy exploded instantly.

Dozens of layers of earth walls disintegrated.

Ouyang Qiang was caught off guard and was struck hard in the chest by the aftermath of the fire crescent.

He spat out a mouthful of blood with a "pfft" sound, his body flying backward and slamming heavily onto the edge of the arena.

The Disciples off the stage completely erupted:

"My God! This Phoenix Slash is too domineering, right? If it were me, I would have been slashed into slag!"

"So this outsider has been pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger all along! The previous slap didn't use full strength at all!"

"That's so damn insidious! No wonder he dared to be so arrogant!"

"With this strength, even a Core Disciple might not necessarily be able to suppress him!"

"..."

Xiang Tian slowly walked up to Ouyang Qiang.

His tone was calm: "Ouyang Qiang, right? Your defense is indeed not bad; you have gained my approval. Admit defeat; I don't want to kill you."

He only came here to establish his authority.

Ouyang Qiang struggled to climb up from the ground.

Blood was still dripping from the corner of his mouth, but his eyes remained stubborn: "I... I still have strength, I haven't lost!"

"Still quite stubborn." Xiang Tian shook his head. "Since you aren't convinced, I will beat you until you are."

"Bang!"

Xiang Tian kicked Ouyang Qiang in the chest.

Ouyang Qiang was sent flying again.

Before he could land, Xiang Tian flashed.

He instantly caught up and threw a punch.

"Bang!"

Several punches landed in succession.

Finally, Ouyang Qiang lay limp on the ground.

"Brat, you are courting death!"

Just then, a cold female voice came.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice.

They saw a woman dressed in purple robes flying through the air.

Her figure was graceful, yet her aura was fierce, locking onto Xiang Tian.

"Holy crap! It's the Core Disciple Ouyang Ling! Why is she here?"

"She is a Martial King expert, the daughter of the Seventh Elder!"

"Don't you guys know? Ouyang Qiang is her half-brother!"

"What? Really?"

"This is a secret among the higher-ups! Ouyang Qiang was born to the Seventh Elder and a maid; he was never acknowledged, and only Ouyang Ling still recognizes this brother."

"No wonder she is so angry!"

Xiang Tian looked up at the overbearing woman, his pupils shrinking.

What a strong aura!

This was definitely someone he couldn't afford to provoke right now.

He immediately put on a grinning face.

He hurriedly explained: "Beautiful lady, it's a misunderstanding! I just advised your brother to admit defeat, but he insisted on holding on; there was nothing I could do!"

"You hit him, that is hitting Ouyang Ling's face." Ouyang Ling couldn't be bothered to talk nonsense with him.

She took out a few Medicinal Pills for healing from her Storage Pouch and stuffed them into Ouyang Qiang's mouth.

She carefully carried him off the stage.

Then she turned around and leaped back onto the arena.

Her eyes were cold. "Today, I will surely seek justice for him!"

"Don't, beautiful lady!" Xiang Tian waved his hands hurriedly.

"I admit defeat! I only came to the Ouyang Family to Cultivate; fighting in the arena was purely an accident."

"What? You know how to play the coward now?" Ouyang Ling raised an eyebrow.

"It's not playing the coward, it's that there's no need to show off." Xiang Tian laughed it off.

But he was calculating how to run away in his heart.

But Ouyang Ling didn't give him a chance.

Her figure flashed, instantly blocking him.

She slapped over: "Want to escape? No way!"

"Dragon Travels Ten Thousand Miles!"

Xiang Tian reacted extremely quickly, wind forming under his feet.

His figure turned into an afterimage, barely dodging this fatal palm strike.

The palm wind landed on the arena.

It smashed a half-foot deep pit.

"Hmm? Your speed isn't slow." Ouyang Ling was surprised, then her offensive became even fiercer. "Tianshan Fist!"

The fist went straight for Xiang Tian's face.

Xiang Tian didn't dare to take it head-on and retreated repeatedly.

At the same time, he flicked his finger, and nine golden rays shot toward Ouyang Ling.

"Hidden weapons?" Ouyang Ling frowned.

She nimbly dodged to the side, and the nine golden rays grazed her sleeve.

If she had been half a second slower just now, she would likely have been pierced through her vital points.

"Beautiful lady, are you okay? I didn't hurt your delicate skin, did I?" Xiang Tian teased with a smile.

While dodging just now, he had taken the opportunity to admire her great figure.

"Lecher!" Ouyang Ling shouted angrily.

Her right leg lifted suddenly and swept over. "Flame Leg!"

This leg was fast and ruthless, carrying a burning aura.

Xiang Tian didn't dare to be careless and hurriedly bent down to dodge.

Only a loud "bang" was heard.

The arena was forced into a large pit by this kick.

"Beautiful lady, not only are your legs white, but the power is also so strong; I admire you, I admire you!" Xiang Tian stood and dodged.

He still didn't forget to tease her.

"Courting death!" Ouyang Ling was completely enraged.

The offensive became even more fierce.

Xiang Tian also put away his grinning face.

Phoenix Flame ignited around his body, blocking the opponent's attack: "Phoenix Flame!"

But Ouyang Ling's strength was ultimately superior.

She unleashed "Extreme Wind," her speed suddenly increasing several times.

She appeared behind Xiang Tian.

She slapped him hard on the back of his heart.

"Bang!"

Xiang Tian was caught off guard and was slapped, causing his blood to surge.

He spat out a mouthful of blood with a "pfft" sound.

His body staggered and fell to the edge of the arena, almost falling off.

Voices of schadenfreude immediately sounded off the stage:

"Hahaha! Finally handled! Let's see how he can still be arrogant!"

"An outsider dares to act wild in the Ouyang Family; he is really tired of living!"

"Senior Sister Ouyang Ling is still amazing; she beat him into serious injury in one move!"

"Satisfying! So satisfying! The previous resentment has finally been vented!"

"..."

These gossiping words pierced into Xiang Tian's ears.

He slowly climbed up from the ground and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.

The playfulness in his eyes faded. "Damn it, a bunch of dogs!"

"Yo? Still able to stand up?" Ouyang Ling raised an eyebrow.

"It seems the slap just now was still too light."

"You stinky woman, don't get too smug!" Xiang Tian roared.

He was truly enraged. "Even if I can't beat you today, I will strip a layer of skin off you!"

Since binding the System, he had never felt so stifled.

No lottery chances, his strength was completely suppressed.

Even the room for counterattack was very little.

"Court of death!" Ouyang Ling's eyes turned cold.

She gathered Qi again.

She slapped over: "Today, I will cripple you!"

Xiang Tian's pupils shrank, and he didn't dare to be the slightest bit careless.

He raised his spirit to the twelfth degree.
