Chapter 76 The White Owl's Trump Card
Bai Xiao did not hold back at all from the start, attacking Chu Han with his full strength.
His talent is unknown, but his Yuan power attribute is the ice attribute.
Holding a pale blue curved saber, he radiated an immense chill, as if the air itself had frozen.
Bai Xiao brandished his curved saber and attacked, while Chu Han also held his Battle Saber and counterattacked.
After a fierce exchange, Bai Xiao quickly fell into a disadvantage.
His saber technique was far inferior to Wu Qi's, and he was even less of a match for Chu Han.
He raised his right hand and struck out with a palm through the air.
White, frigid Yuan power instantly condensed into several ice blades, shooting toward Chu Han at extreme speed.
Chu Han dared not be careless and immediately executed his movement technique to dodge the ice blade attacks.
However, he realized his movements were becoming sluggish; it turned out the surrounding ice attribute Yuan power had slowed him down.
He immediately injected fire attribute Yuan power into his Battle Saber and slashed, severing the incoming ice blades.
"fire attribute?"
Bai Xiao's eyes turned cold. He raised his hand and grabbed forward, "Ice Prison!"
White, ice attribute Yuan power instantly condensed around Chu Han, immediately forming a massive ice cage that trapped him inside.
The walls of the ice cage were also covered in sharp ice spikes.
As Bai Xiao clenched his fist, the surrounding ice spikes thrust toward Chu Han once more.
Seeing this, Chu Han swung his Battle Saber, red blade light flashing continuously as he severed all the incoming ice spikes.
At the same time, he used Flame Burst Fist to smash the ice cage, evaporating the ice cage in front of him completely.
A large amount of white steam suddenly appeared on the Arena, hiding both him and Bai Xiao from view.
The next moment, a chill swept through the surroundings again, and the massive amount of fog was frozen into ice powder, falling to the ground.
The two figures appeared once more.
"Your strength is nothing more than this," Chu Han mocked.
"You're courting death." Bai Xiao was instantly enraged by Chu Han.
He gathered his Yuan power into the curved saber, which immediately transformed into a pale blue sharp blade.
"Taste this move of mine, Ice Seal Slash!"
Bai Xiao slashed out, and white, frigid Yuan power instantly erupted from his blade.
It descended toward Chu Han like a white ribbon.
Wherever it passed, the ground around the Arena instantly formed a layer of frost, and even the air was frozen, becoming solidified.
This move was Bai Xiao's killing blow.
Executed with his 5th-rank Yuan power, he did not believe Chu Han could block it.
Chu Han dared not be careless, and the Star-Burning Flame within his body erupted instantly.
It mixed with his fire attribute Yuan power, surged into his Battle Saber, and he swung it out.
"Boom!"
The power of fire and ice collided instantly, and the white Yuan power retreated like melting snow.
Bai Xiao's expression changed drastically, his eyes filled with disbelief: "What kind of flame is this? How can it actually suppress my ice attribute Yuan power?"
He had Cultivated the ice attribute for many years, and this was the first time he had encountered a fire attribute Martial Artist who could so easily neutralize his chill.
In terms of Yuan power intensity, Chu Han was far inferior to him, yet he had still easily neutralized his chill by relying on the flames.
This proved that Chu Han definitely possessed a powerful fire talent!
But didn't Lan Kui say that Chu Han had no Awakening?
Chu Han did not answer; he stomped his foot violently.
The fire attribute Yuan power and Star-Burning Flame within his body erupted simultaneously, and the pale red flames rapidly spread in all directions.
The frost created by Bai Xiao on the Arena instantly melted, replaced by a scorching red heat that turned the air sweltering.
Bai Xiao was forced to retreat repeatedly by the flames, pushing his ice attribute Yuan power to the limit to cast a Yuan power shield, isolating himself from Chu Han's flames.
"A Yuan power shield alone won't be able to stop me!"
Although Bai Xiao's strength was 5th-rank, the pressure he brought to Chu Han was not even as much as Wu Qi's.
Red Yuan power gathered on Chu Han's Battle Saber; he prepared to use the seventh form of the Seven Forms of Army Breaking to defeat Bai Xiao in one blow.
Just as his Battle Saber was about to descend, he suddenly felt a jolt in his mind.
A slight sense of dizziness followed.
Someone was attacking his Mental Energy!
Chu Han immediately looked toward the source of the mental attack and discovered that the person attacking him with Mental Energy was actually Bai Xiao.
So, Mental Energy was actually Bai Xiao's true trump card!
Chu Han suddenly realized.
Bai Xiao's talent was a rare mental-type talent!
No wonder Lan Kui trusted Bai Xiao so much.
Bai Xiao's Mental Energy attack could be called a dimensional reduction strike to Martial Artists of the same rank.
Even a 6th-rank Martial Artist would fall for his mental attack!
It was just a pity that the person he encountered this time was Chu Han.
His Mental Energy attack only brought slight interference to Chu Han.
The movement in Chu Han's hand suddenly stopped, which allowed Bai Xiao to see an opening.
"Even if your strength is strong, what's the use? Facing my mental attack, aren't you still at my mercy!"
Bai Xiao was extremely smug and immediately swung his curved saber, stabbing toward Chu Han's Dantian.
This saber strike was intended to cripple Chu Han!
However, just as Bai Xiao was about to succeed, Chu Han suddenly moved.
The blood shadow battle saber drew a strange arc in the air.
"Schwing!"
The arm Bai Xiao was holding the saber with flew off instantly.
Before Bai Xiao could react, Chu Han used his own method against him, instantly smashing a Flame Burst Fist into Bai Xiao's Dantian.
"Boom!"
The sky full of flames exploded on Bai Xiao's body.
Bai Xiao let out a shrill scream, his entire body turning into a large fireball as he flew toward the Blue Eagle Martial Arts Hall's team.
Lan Kui caught Bai Xiao, his Yuan power erupting and blowing away the flames on Bai Xiao's body.
At this moment, Bai Xiao had completely become a cripple.
He had lost an arm, and his entire body was covered in severe burns.
Most importantly, Lan Kui could no longer sense any Yuan power fluctuations on Bai Xiao.
"What a ruthless method."
Lan Kui said, almost grinding his teeth.
"Likewise."
Chu Han sneered.
Lan Kui's expression was uncertain; looking at Bai Xiao, he felt somewhat troubled.
Bai Xiao was a hired thug he had paid a high price for, a member of the Bai Family from Tianyuan Province, a Family that actually had a Grandmaster.
Now Bai Xiao had been crippled.
Even if it was Chu Han who had struck, he could not wash his hands of the matter.
"Chu Han, don't think you've won just because you've crippled Bai Xiao. He is a member of the Bai Family, someone you absolutely cannot afford to offend!"
Lan Kui sneered and led the people from the Blue Eagle Martial Arts Hall off the Arena.
"Background, huh?"
Chu Han narrowed his eyes, killing intent surging in his heart.
He had now completely offended Lan Kui to the death.
In order to clear his name, Lan Kui would definitely add oil and vinegar when telling the Bai Family, directing all the hatred toward him.
At that time, his enemies would become two.
"It seems I need to strike first."
Chu Han thought to himself.
At this time, with the withdrawal of the Blue Eagle Martial Arts Hall, the final winner of this competition was determined.
Although the final battle was somewhat bloody, it did not affect the audience's enthusiasm at all.
Everyone was cheering the names of Chu Han and the War Hammer Martial Arts Hall.
"Let us congratulate the War Hammer Martial Arts Hall for winning the championship of this Martial Arts School Ranking Tournament!"
The host took the stage and excitedly announced the final result of the competition.
The audience's cheers suddenly became even more enthusiastic.
The War Hammer Martial Arts Hall, a martial arts school that no one was optimistic about at the start of the competition.
Ultimately, relying on Chu Han's strong performance, they won the final championship.
Everyone knew that the War Hammer Martial Arts Hall's first place was almost entirely due to Chu Han's efforts alone.
The name Chu Han was also deeply engraved in the hearts of every audience member and all the important figures in the VIP seats.
Immediately, everyone from the War Hammer Martial Arts Hall stepped forward to enjoy the glory of the championship.
Gao Jun, as the Hall Master, represented the martial arts hall to receive the first-place prize.
He knew that from today on, the War Hammer Martial Arts Hall would no longer be unknown.
As the best player of this competition, Chu Han also possessed an additional reward.
The host handed a box containing a Medicinal Pill to Chu Han: "This is the reward for the best player of this competition, a breakthrough pill."
"A breakthrough pill!"
A wave of emotion surged in Chu Han's heart.
