157: Chapter 157 Otherworldly Magician

Lu Qingyang was left disoriented by Chen Xing's combo Moves; if not for the Divine Power of the Five-Colored Sword protecting him, he would have been knocked off the stage already.

This person was no small fry either, surviving dozens of Moves; he was a super powerhouse even within the Sword Tower.

"It seems I should show you some respect," Chen Xing said.

"What?" Lu Qingyang's pupils suddenly constricted to the size of pinholes. You haven't been serious yet?

"Hunyuan Heavenly Light, converge!"

Chen Xing murmured, the incantation taking effect as countless rays of light surged from his body and gathered in his palm.

Lu Qingyang was stunned. Wasn't it Chaotic Heavenly Light? What was this Hunyuan Heavenly Light? Could it actually be upgraded?

However, he had no time to think further.

"Five-Colored Sword Domain, open!"

Lu Qingyang activated his Domain Divine Ability and took out his sword-nurturing gourd to mount a defense.

He gave a low roar, and ten thousand swords chimed in unison as five divine lights transformed into a divine bridge that streaked across the sky, heading straight for his opponent.

The light converged rapidly, transforming into a light sword under Chen Xing's extreme control, which he then gripped in his palm.

"A sword?"

Lu Qingyang's eyelids twitched. What did this mean? Did he want to defeat me in the field I excelled in? You are too arrogant!

"Bang!"

Chen Xing formed hand seals, and the divine sword formed from the Hunyuan Heavenly Light pierced through the Five-Colored Divine Bridge, sweeping forward with unstoppable momentum.

Lu Qingyang's expression changed drastically as he desperately resisted, employing other divine abilities and treasures.

"Boom!"

Ultimately, he could not hold out; under the explosion of the Hunyuan Heavenly Light, everything ceased to exist.

From the start of the battle until now, dozens of Moves had passed, but in reality, the fight ended in less than three rounds.

"It's alright, I suppose. As expected, without the enhancement of Yin and Yang light, the lethality is a bit lower than I anticipated," Chen Xing thought to himself.

"A new Move?" Below the stage, Chu Zhen's gaze narrowed.

"Hmm... Hunyuan Heavenly Light? What a bold name, but I like it!" Zhong Yang had already walked up and was watching the scene cheerfully from the side.

"Who else is coming up?" Chen Xing's gaze swept across the surroundings, but he received no response.

These two battles had allowed everyone to see clearly what it meant to be the strongest as decreed by the Alliance.

Lu Qingyang was one of the most outstanding individuals in the Sword Tower, currently surpassed only by the Young Lord, yet he had been utterly defeated.

Faced with such a terrifying existence, many people no longer had the desire to fight.

"Eh, why is there no one left?" Zhong Yang looked around, suddenly feeling bored.

"Sigh, forget it then. I'll go watch the fun elsewhere." He shook his head, turned around, and skipped away.

Chu Zhen watched him, her eyes deep.

With no one else challenging him, Chen Xing sat cross-legged on the stage, carefully sensing the changes in the Laws of Yinyang Mountain and comprehending the Dao of Yin and Yang.

"New environment detected. Analyzing the flow and changes of Yinyang Mountain's Laws..."

"Analysis successful."

With the help of the System, Chen Xing's comprehension was very fast, and the seventh and eighth rays of light condensed even more tangibly.

Shortly after, someone else stepped onto the stage.

"An exchange student?" Chen Xing looked at the aura of the Laws on the other person, which clearly did not belong to this Universe.

"Indeed." Opposite him was a man wearing a top hat, dressed like a magician and behaving with dignity.

"Allow me to introduce myself. I come from the Ninth Universe, surnamed Yu, named Mo." Yu Mo said with a bow.

"A Tribulation Transformation Realm expert, and you're interested in me too?" Chen Xing raised his head slightly.

"The strong are always strong, and you will reach that Realm eventually. What I am more concerned about is just what level you, the strongest Spirit Seed Realm, are at," Yu Mo said with a faint smile.

"The strongest... that title again. I've heard it no less than dozens of times." Chen Xing slowly stood up.

"Little Yu, keep it up! Don't lose face for our Ninth Universe!"

"Right, you can't lose to a mere Spirit Seed Realm youth. You have much more combat experience than him."

"He doesn't even have a Perfect Seed yet. It would be too embarrassing if you lost."

"..."

Above Yinyang Mountain, several Heavenly Position Realm powerhouses also from the Ninth Universe spoke up one after another to cheer him on.

Yu Mo paid them no mind, his calm gaze sweeping over his opponent.

Chen Xing was also sizing him up, secretly thinking that this man was extraordinary; Lu Qingyang was simply not on the same level as him.

It made sense. Of those who could come here as exchange students, which one wasn't a super Genius?

Moreover, the region these people lived in was a complete human Universe, without the severe fragmentation of their side, so the environment was naturally much better.

The most critical point was that Chen Xing had no information about him, no intelligence whatsoever.

Meanwhile, as the "strongest," his own abilities were mostly public knowledge and would inevitably be studied carefully by others.

"Then, let's begin." Yu Mo spoke politely and bowed slightly.

"Whoosh!"

The moment he straightened up, Chen Xing chose to strike, transforming into light to scatter his opponent.

But after dispersing the opponent, Chen Xing discovered that what he had just scattered was merely a pile of playing Cards.

Yu Mo, an S-class Esper, his Ability was... Cards!

This reminded Chen Xing of Zhang Moqian, who used to lead the army on the frontier battlefield; that person also had a card Ability that was ever-changing and very difficult to deal with.

Chen Xing activated Minds Eye, and a blazing sun appeared above his head, its light quickly sweeping across the surroundings.

"Swish!"

An arrow shot over rapidly. Chen Xing dodged it by turning sideways, but he could feel a burning sensation in his Soul.

That kind of arrow was not ordinary; it specifically targeted the Soul.

In the distant Void Realm, Yu Mo floated in the air, but only his upper body was visible; his lower body was a mass of floating Cards.

His Cards were ever-changing, sometimes transforming into archers to attack, sometimes into an army to charge, and sometimes into a great sun to burn the opponent.

"This is an exchange student?"

"Hiss... what a terrifying Ability. No wonder he was chosen as an exchange student."

"With such an ever-changing situation, how can the deadlock be broken?"

"My god, it's the first time I've seen the King of Light at a loss. Even if he hits the opponent, he can't find the original body!"

"..."

Below the stage, the audience was buzzing with discussion, even drawing people from other areas to watch.

Everyone wanted to see what humans from other Universes were like, only to find they were no different from themselves.

Chu Zhen's eyes moved rapidly; she realized that Yu Mo's true body couldn't be found at all. Even if he was hit, he would just turn into a pile of useless Cards.

How could a flaw be found?

"The variations of his Cards seem to be fewer than the number of Battle Techniques I can fuse, so it shouldn't be a big problem," Chen Xing evaluated in his mind as he fought and tested his opponent.

"This guy... is really hard to deal with. He's different from any Light Element controller I've seen before." However, the changes in Yu Mo's heart were also significant.

Although Chen Xing could not hit his true body this way, wasn't he the same?

Every time he attacked or attempted a flank, Chen Xing could dodge with the speed of light.

No matter how high their lethality was, as long as they didn't hit the opponent, it was all just for show.
