70: Chapter 70 Successfully Advances

After only a moment.

The black Saber Qi crushed the red Phoenix Flame, completely taking the upper hand.

"Boom—"

After the loud noise, the flaming crescent shattered with a bang.

The violent aftermath of the energy swept toward Xiang Tian.

His body shook violently, and he retreated several steps in succession.

Every step left a footprint on the arena floor.

A trace of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Seeing this, the surrounding crowd immediately exclaimed in shock.

"Damn! Is this level of power really still within the Supernatural Realm?"

"Although Xiang Tian has fallen behind, this Aura is much stronger than that of an average Martial King Realm Early Stage!"

"Exactly! No wonder the Fifth Master put him into the Core Disciple Secret Realm; this talent is terrifying!"

"If he can grow up smoothly, I fear he will be even more of a Prodigy than the Fifth Master's wife..."

"Quiet! How dare you say such things recklessly?"

Everyone shut their mouths, their expressions wary.

The team captains outside the arena also cast strange looks.

"Xiang Tian's talent can be called a Prodigy," Ouyang Yunshan said, taking a deep breath.

His tone was grave. "At the same Supernatural Realm level, I admit I am not his equal."

"Indeed, extremely strong," Ouyang Tianyang said, staring at the arena with a complex expression.

He spoke slowly, "But talent does not equal strength; whether he can win today remains to be seen."

"Regardless of winning or losing, this boy is worth befriending!" Ouyang Yunze nodded in satisfaction.

"Once the Secret Realm trip is over, I will definitely drag Brother Xiang out to drink for three days and three nights!"

"Hmph." Only Ouyang Batian snorted coldly, his expression disdainful.

"As expected of the man I have my eyes on!" Ouyang Miaomiao suddenly spoke up.

Her eyes were filled with fanaticism. "If I could have a child with him, the talent would surely be extremely prodigious!"

The others rolled their eyes upon hearing this.

"Miaomiao, if you really marry him, I'm worried about whether he could grow up smoothly," Ouyang Yunshan said with a sheepish smile.

Wasn't it because Ouyang Yutian couldn't stand her that he fled the marriage back then?

"What do you mean by that?" Ouyang Miaomiao turned her head abruptly and glared at Ouyang Yunshan.

Her face sank instantly. "How can Ouyang Yutian, that coward, compare to Xiang Tian's talent?"

"Ahem! I misspoke!" Ouyang Yunshan quickly conceded.

"With your strength, if you marry him, you would certainly be able to protect him!"

Ouyang Miaomiao snorted coldly and ignored him further.

Her gaze returned to the arena.

In the center of the arena.

Ouyang Qingyun carried his broadsword on his shoulder, looking at Xiang Tian leisurely.

His tone was contemptuous: "Xiang Tian, what other tricks do you have? Use them all!"

Two exchanges.

He had already figured out Xiang Tian's background and considered victory within his grasp.

"I do indeed have one more move," Xiang Tian said, wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.

He spoke slowly.

"Oh? Then I must have a good taste of it." Ouyang Qingyun was unconcerned, his expression arrogant.

"Watch closely."

As soon as Xiang Tian finished speaking.

Phoenix Flame suddenly erupted from his entire body, and a heatwave swept across the arena.

His gaze quickly swept across the arena.

It finally landed on Ouyang Yunyan in the corner.

"Boom!"

A pillar of fire suddenly condensed and shot straight towards Ouyang Yunyan!

"Ah—!"

Ouyang Yunyan was caught off guard and exclaimed in shock.

Her clothes were instantly ignited by the flames, revealing large patches of fair skin.

Her scream instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the arena.

"So white..."

Someone exclaimed subconsciously.

A curve appeared at the corner of Xiang Tian's mouth: "Good opportunity!"

His figure moved like lightning as he flashed out instantly.

"Pa! Pa!"

Two crisp slapping sounds rang out as Xiang Tian used both hands.

He instantly slapped two Ouyang Family members in the face.

[Ding! Host successfully performed a face-slap, cultivation level increased to Martial King Realm! Reward: 10,000 face-slapping points, and an additional lucky draw opportunity!]

[Ding! Host's cultivation level has broken through by one level, reward: another 10,000 points!]

Xiang Tian quickly flashed back, putting distance between himself and the others.

"Xiang Tian, I'm going to kill you!"

Just as Xiang Tian was secretly delighted.

Ouyang Yunyan had already changed into new clothes and lunged at him, her face full of fury.

"Cloud Palm!"

A palm filled with fury was struck, and the wind howled.

The power was far greater than before.

"Hehe, Beauty, I might have been afraid of you earlier, but now..." Xiang Tian was calm, advancing instead of retreating.

"Bang!"

The palms collided.

Xiang Tian seized the momentum and pulled Ouyang Yunyan into his arms.

At the same time, he reached out and lightly stroked her face.

"Xiang Tian, you lecher! Let go of me!" Ouyang Yunyan was both embarrassed and angry.

She didn't care about her image.

"Beauty, go wait outside obediently!" Xiang Tian used a little force.

He tossed Ouyang Yunyan out of the competition circle.

"Ouyang Yunyan is out! Sunshine Squad scores another point; scores will be settled collectively after the match ends!" Ouyang Yunshan's voice came just in time.

Ouyang Yunyan, having been tossed out, could only stomp her feet and curse from the outside.

But she could not enter the field again.

"Beauty, wait until we leave the Secret Realm, and I will 'discipline' you properly," Xiang Tian teased.

Then he turned to look at Ouyang Qingyun.

But just as he was preparing to make a move.

The two Ouyang Family members he had just slapped.

Had quietly snuck behind him and launched a sneak attack simultaneously!

"You two, get out of here too!"

Xiang Tian's eyes turned cold, and he threw out his fists suddenly.

"Bang!"

"Ah! Ah!"

Two screams rang out, and the two were instantly sent flying.

They fell outside the competition circle.

"Ouyang Qingyun, our fight has just begun," Xiang Tian shrugged.

He gripped the qingling sword in his hand.

"Xiang Tian, are you hiding some secret?" Ouyang Qingyun's face was grave to the extreme.

Staring fixedly at Xiang Tian, "Your cultivation level actually soared by two levels in such a short time, and you even crossed a major Realm!"

"Whether I have secrets or not has nothing to do with you," Xiang Tian's eyes were sharp.

"If you want to fight, then fight!"

He just wanted to defeat Ouyang Qingyun and seize that imitation Demon Blood Blade.

"You won't say? Then I'll beat you until you do!" Ouyang Qingyun roared, gripping his broadsword.

He slashed fiercely at Xiang Tian.

"Zheng—!"

The blade and sword collided, sparks flying everywhere.

"My qingling sword still can't quite hold up," Xiang Tian raised an eyebrow.

He was jolted back a step.

"Xiang Tian, no matter how strong your talent is, it cannot bridge the gap in cultivation!" Ouyang Qingyun pressed his advantage relentlessly.

He slashed again, the momentum of the blade even fiercer.

"Zheng!"

This strike was incredibly powerful, and the qingling sword was nearly severed.

The huge impact numbed the webbing between Xiang Tian's thumb and forefinger, and his arm trembled slightly.

"This guy's strength is indeed formidable!" Xiang Tian took a deep breath.

He forced himself to steady his stance.

"Your spirit pet will soon be mine!" Ouyang Qingyun glanced out of the corner of his eye at Bai Yu, who was nervously watching the battle from outside.

Unconcealed greed appeared on his face.

Bai Yu clenched her fists, her pretty face tense.

Had Xiang Tian not stopped her earlier, she would have already rushed into the arena to help.

Xiang Tian ignored Ouyang Qingyun's provocation.

He immediately called out to the System in his mind: "Quick, upgrade the qingling sword!"

[Ding! Host consumed 11,000 face-slapping points, successfully upgrading the qingling sword to Martial King level!]

"So expensive?" Xiang Tian secretly gasped.

He only had a little over 20,000 points in total, and this used up nearly half of them.

But the expenditure had its rewards.

The upgraded qingling sword instantly erupted with a massive Aura.

It traveled along the hilt into his palm, causing his strength to skyrocket.

"Very good! Let me show you the power after the upgrade!"

Xiang Tian flashed.

He quickly put distance between himself and Ouyang Qingyun, then swung his sword in a sweep.

A condensed cyan Sword Qi whistled out.

It swept toward Ouyang Qingyun.

"It's a bit stronger than before, but still useless!" Ouyang Qingyun snorted disdainfully.

He also swung his blade to slash out a black Saber Qi.

This time.

The cyan Sword Qi and the black Saber Qi collided, and they were evenly matched!

"Boom—!"

The cyan and black energy exploded violently in the air, the loud noise deafening.

The violent aftermath spread in all directions.

Everyone on the arena was forced to retreat.

Several people were even knocked directly out of the competition circle.

"The intensity of these two's battle is actually not inferior to ours?" Ouyang Yunshan looked at the arena.

He raised an eyebrow.

"You think too highly of yourself," Ouyang Miaomiao's phoenix eyes narrowed.

Her tone was certain. "Their current combat level has already reached the Martial King Late Stage!"

She herself was skilled at fighting above her level and had previously fought against Martial King Late Stage powerhouses.

She could naturally judge the combat intensity accurately.

This kind of violent energy fluctuation was definitely not something the Martial King Early or Middle Stage could compare to.

"Oh? Then Xiang Tian is truly not simple!" Ouyang Yunze looked at Xiang Tian solemnly once again.

"He is only at the Martial King Realm Second Layer; how can he have such formidable combat power?"
