  Then, Huwang Xiao fully released his aura that had been restrained all this time, pressing down on the arena.

  Compared to Huwang Xiao’s tempestuous momentum, the momentum of a late-Fourth Order God Realm that Jiang Bi showed earlier resembled a simple gust of summer breeze.

  “What!! This is early Fifth Order God Realm?! No, it’s peak early Fifth Order God Realm!”

  “How is it possible! How can it be peak early Fifth Order God Realm?!”

  “Didn’t the rumors say that Huwang Xiao was just a Second Order God Realm five years ago? How did he breakthrough to Fifth Order God Realm in five years!”

  When Huwang Xiao exposed his strength, the entire arena was stupefied due to shock, startled, and filled with incomprehensible disbelief.

  Wang Na’s dainty lips were agape in astonishment, that expression of hers was akin to finding her lower part penetrated by something as thick as a thigh.

  The whole arena was boiling!

  A little over eight years ago, Huwang Xiao had just entered the Black Warrior Institute. At that time, he wasn’t even a half-step God Realm. This matter was no secret, practically everyone in the Black Tortoise Galaxy knew of it, but now, he was already a peak early Fifth Order God Realm!

  Some family disciples nearly lost control, staining themselves from overexcitement.

  Only the word ‘miracle’ could explain this cultivation speed!

  Feng Yang, who was just looking somber moments earlier after Huwang Xiao was sent flying by one punch from Xiang Mingzhi, now jumped to his feet, repeatedly crying: “Good! Good! Good!” as he beamed from ear to ear. As for what was good, or how good it was, it went unexplained.

  Liu Yun was rendered speechless by his Master’s obvious excited face. A Highgod Realm master, the exalted Black Warrior Institute’s Principal was truly capable of rendering anyone speechless with his current behavior.

  This was the first time Liu Yun was exposed to this side of his Master. If he remembered correctly, he wasn’t even half as happy when he was selected as the Black Warrior Institute Principal. But, Liu Yun himself was just as thrilled. Looking at the stage, this Junior Apprentice-brother of his had once again awed everyone! Now, he finally understood exactly what the term ‘monstrous talent’ meant.

  When Huwang Xiao’s momentum rose to the peak, his robe was blasted into fragments, revealing his firm, chiseled muscles. Not wasting a second, he immediately soul transformed, integrating with the black and blue twin dragon martial spirits. The twin dragon heads appeared like a tattoo on his back, exuding vast dragon might.

  Xiang Mingzhi’s face was black as a pot’s bottom right now. Huwang Xiao actually broke through to Fifth Order God Realm, and on top of that, reaching peak early Fifth Order God Realm! Just like everyone else in the arena, he too was shocked, feeling a strong sense of disbelief.

  His own talent was peerless, unparalleled, there only existed those who were envious of him, but now, he actually felt jealousy surfacing in his heart toward Huwang Xiao. Together with strong jealousy was deranged killing intent.

  Huwang Xiao absolutely must die!

  Xiang Mingzhi’s eyes were cold and venomous as he looked at Huwang Xiao, “Huwang Xiao, you have exceeded my expectations indeed, but even if you advanced to Fifth Order God Realm, so what? You still have to die all the same!” Finishing his words, Xiang Mingzhi’s momentum erupted in full force.

  Ch.615

  Late-Fifth Order God Realm!

  The crowd was once again surprised by the surging aura that Xiang Mingzhi released. But, they were merely surprised, unlike the astonishment and disbelief they felt at Huwang Xiao’s progress. After all, the news of Xiang Mingzhi breaking through to Fifth Order God Realm a few years ago was already a known fact.

  Moreover, Xiang Mingzhi’s cultivation time was more than double that of Huwang Xiao’s. Despite being considered a great, talented genius, compared to Huwang Xiao, his brilliance didn’t seem much.

  Seeing Xiang Mingzhi’s real strength, Huwang Xiao laughed instead, “Xiang Mingzhi, this is your real strength? I’m honestly disappointed. During the auction five years ago, you were early Fifth Order God Realm, in five years you merely advanced to late-Fifth Order God Realm?” Huwang Xiao even shook his head in lament at the end.

  Huwang Xiao was genuinely disappointed. He had assumed that Xiang Mingzhi would have broken through to Sixth Order God Realm at the very least. If Xiang Mingzhi did advance until Sixth Order God Realm like he assumed, he’d be a much bigger headache, but now, a late-Fifth Order God Realm Xiang Mingzhi posed no great problem for the current Huwang Xiao with his improved True Dragon Physique.

  Hearing Huwang Xiao say that he was disappointed after displaying his strength, that genuine look of disappointment pushed Xiang Mingzhi over the line of being enraged.

  “Huwang Xiao, killing you is as easy as turning my palm!!” Xiang Mingzhi roared in anger. However, just as his voice stopped, a shadow flickered, and Huwang Xiao was already right in front of him.

  A monstrous energy, fierce and violent was suddenly directed at Xiang Mingzhi.

  Startled by the sudden attack, Xiang Mingzhi was still able to react, and he was about to attack when a piercing pain came from his chest. In the next moment, he was knocked flying without any power to resist, slamming down hard on the sturdy stage.

  The stage and the ground both quaked noticeably.

  Xuu! The spectating crowd made a hissing noise of pain that sounded similar to little children pissing upon waking from their sleep.

  Those from the Azure Dragon Institute felt their hearts sink.

  Huwang Xiao slowly approached Xiang Mingzhi, his voice cold and calm, “That was payback for your punch just now.”

  As Huwang Xiao got closer, Xiang Mingzhi’s body suddenly exuded a powerful aura, growing stronger by the second as it continued to expand. , the crowd saw various lightning streaks shoot out from his body, enveloping him, then covering the stage, still expanding outwards. The lightning’s power of destruction caused the audience's hair to stand on ends.

  Xiang Mingzhi slowly stood up, his scarlet red eyes fixed on the figure opposite him, “Huwang Xiao, you asked for it! I’m going to let you die, destroyed under numerous lightning strikes until not even the bones are left!” He extended his arms to his sides, then Xiang Mingzhi floated up to the sky. The higher he got, the more violent and numerous the ribbons of lightning dancing around him became.

  More and more divine lightning appeared.

  The Great Life and Death Vanquishing Divine Lightning, Boundless Divine Lightning, Five Elements Divine Lightning, Fire-metal Divine Lightning, Sacred Light Divine Lightning, Yin Yang Star Divine Lightning, Star Monarch Divine Lightning, Blessed Heaven Divine Lightning.

  Myriad of divine lightning streaks shrouded the enormous Rising Dragon Arena.

  “This is the Nine Palace Divine of Lightning Technique! The most powerful ancient lightning cultivation technique!”

  “Such frightening destruction power, this Xiang Mingzhi most likely cultivated it to the sixth stage!”

  Exclamations of shock and surprise could be heard all around.

  Up on the stage, Huwang Xiao’s eyes narrowed solemnly.

  “Eh, Extreme Lighting Destruction Physique?” Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi’s voice sounded in Huwang Xiao’s mind.

  “Extreme Lighting Destruction Physique?” Huwang Xiao failed to make head or tail at Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi’s words.

  Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi nodded, explaining, “There's no mistake about it, ranked sixth among the three thousand unique physiques, the Extreme Lightning Destruction Physique!”

  Huwang Xiao was a tiny bit surprised. He didn’t think that Xiang Mingzhi would possess one of the three thousand unique physiques, moreover, one that ranked so highly at sixth place. This was the strongest unique physique he had come across so far.

  “Although your True Dragon Physique is ranked fourth, solely judging from attack power, his Extreme Lightning Destruction Phy
sique does not lose to your True Dragon Physique by much, because he can summon the various types of lighting between heaven and earth to attack.” Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi added, “But his Extreme Lightning Destruction Physique has yet to reach major completion, thus it has one weakness. Others might not know, but I do.”

  “What is it?” Huwang Xiao’s eyes brightened.

  Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi’s tone turned sly and wicked as he chuckled, “His little birdie.”

  “Little birdie?!” Huwang Xiao’s eyes furtively swept over Xiang Mingzhi’s lower part, looking a little odd.

  Dragon Emperor Ao Taiyi’s wicked chuckle sounded again, “Burst his little birdie, and in a short time his Extreme Lightning Destruction Physique won’t be able to gather and summon divine lighting!”

  Huwang Xiao was rendered speechless.

  Since this was the only method, ‘Xiang Mingzhi, don’t blame me.’

  Xiang Mingzhi, who was accumulating lightning power to summon more divine lightning, inexplicably felt a cold shiver down his back, his thighs tightened slightly by reflex.

  “World Destroying Divine Lightning!” He let out an angry roar, taking the initiative to attack. Following his arms’ movement, the destructive divine lighting enveloping the Rising Dragon Arena stage streaked toward Huwang Xiao as if it found an outlet to vent.

  Faster than this lighting was Huwang Xiao, disappearing in a flicker.

  Streaks of wrathful divine lighting bombarded the spot where Huwang Xiao stood moments ago, causing the entire stage to shake. This time, alarming crack lines appeared on the stage, causing the spectators’ hearts to palpitate from the scene.

  When Huwang Xiao appeared again, he had shortened the distance between him and Xiang Mingzhi.

  “Flower of the Other Shore!” Two strange looking flower buds appeared above out of nowhere, vanishing just as mysteriously barely a second later.

  Wary, Xiang Mingzhi swiftly waved his hands, forming a lightning barrier protecting his whole body formed from the numerous lighting streaks around him.

  The vanished Flowers of the Other Shore reappeared, hitting right on the lighting barrier. The lightning barrier quivered vigorously from the impact, but it managed to hold on. Huwang Xiao did not intend to shatter the barrier at all with that move, hence, the Blades of Asura were already sending out a second attack.

  “Wind Blade Volations!” The Ninth Move of the Asura Sword Skill.

  In an instant, countless wind blades banged against the lightning barrier wave after wave, each wave stronger than the previous one, like the rising great tide.

  In the end, the lighting barrier was shattered.

  By this time, another pool of lightning had gathered above, but just as Xiang Mingzhi wanted to move the lighting to bombard Huwang Xiao a second time, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a shadow flicker. In the next second, a pain he had never experienced before came from his lower body; even his face was twisted from the pain, his mouth opened wide. He seemed to hear the sound of eggs cracking amplified in his ears.

  Incapacitated, Xiang Mingzhi’s plummeted down from high altitude.

  The crowd watched Xiang Mingzhi in bewilderment, for he was clutching his groin in a curled up position even as he crashed. The various expressions flashing past his face were indescribable with words, other than anger. Below, the crowd unconsciously squeezed their thighs.

  The turn of events took place too quickly, no one imagined the end result would be like this.

  Feng Yang’s sonorous voice filled the arena once more, “Good! Burst his little birdie with one kick! This move is ruthless, powerful, I like it!”

  The various forces’ masters were speechless, shaking their heads even as they burst out into laughter.

  On the Azure Dragon Institute viewing stand, rage was boiling over.

  Huwang Xiao walked over to Xiang Mingzhi, not betraying any thoughts on his face. He didn’t expect Xiang Mingzhi’s Extreme Lightning Destruction Physique to be so easily broken. Then again, since it was broken, then the end result was set.

  Before Huwang Xiao could land the final blow to completely cripple Xiang Mingzhi, then killing him once and for all, a sharp cold voice rang out: “Stop!”

  Looking over, the one who spoke was none other than the Azure Dragon Institute Vice-Principal.

  “Vice-Principal Jia Xiangtian, do you want to disregard the rules?” Huwang Xiao retorted in aversion.

  Ch.616

  After hearing Huwang Xiao’s words, the Azure Dragon Vice-Principal gave a hearty laugh, “Rules? Our Azure Dragon Institute’s words are the rules! Huwang Xiao, if I allow you to kill Xiang Mingzhi, would you even dare to kill?” His voice was thick with irony.

  A ruthless light glinted in Huwang Xiao’s eyes, and his foot was already stomping down on Xiang Mingzhi, swift and merciless. If his foot struck, Xiang Mingzhi’s head would be crushed without a doubt!

  “Insolent! Courting death!” Seeing that Huwang Xiao still dared to attack, Jia Xiangtian bellowed with fury. His figure had already leaped out, aiming a lethal punch at Huwang Xiao.

  In an instant, the earth groaned and fissured and the sky darkened, issuing thunderous rumbles. Space rifts appeared, growing bigger, and the chaotic space force rushed in like a vengeful storm.

  The crowd was aghast, was this the strength of a Highgod Realm master?

  Before Jia Xiangtian’s attack even arrived, the entire Rising Dragon Arena was shaking violently, as if it was going to crumble in the next moment.

  “Presumptuous!” At this time, a reprimanding voice boomed, jarring everyone’s minds with a buzzing noise. A figure appeared right in front of Jia Xiangtian a split second later.

  “F*ck off for this old man!” A dim-black fist imprint howled through the air, casting a shadow over the sky while carrying a momentum that surpassed Jia Xiangtian by a few degrees.

  A rumble resounded in the sky above and Jia Xiangtian’s figure staggered but was still forced down to the ground, leaving more than a dozen deep footprints on the floor in order to diffuse the collision impact before steadying his posture.

  The Black Warrior Institute Principal Feng Yang descended gracefully on the Rising Dragon Arena. Clearly, the person who blocked Jia Xiangtian just now was none other than Feng Yang.

  With the terrifying collision of energy from the two great Highgod Realm masters’ exchange spreading out, Huwang Xiao could only give up on Xiang Mingzhi temporarily, retreating to safety in a flicker. At the same time, a bright Buddhism luminance shrouded his body, negating the shockwaves coming at him. Even so, Huwang Xiao still felt a numbing pain all over as he retreated as far and as fast as he could. If it weren’t for his True Dragon Physique, he’d have been injured quite gravely just from the shockwaves blasting out.

  On the other hand, Xiang Mingzhi was much less fortunate, his weakened body rolled and tossed around. At some point, blood started flowing from his head. In a few short rolls and tosses, he finally fell over the edge of the Rising Dragon Arena.

  Jia Xiangtian was glowering viciously, both furious and apprehensive, for Feng Yang’s strength had exceeded his estimation.

  Feng Yang coldly looked at the other side, “The words of your Azure Dragon Institute are the rules? In my Black Warrior Institute, your Azure Dragon Institute’s words are farts!”

  Farts! This triggered a string of laughter from the spectating crowd. The ones present were mostly super forces and families with roots in the Black Tortoise Galaxy and had always been dissatisfied with the Azure Dragon Institute’s overboard arrogance.

  “Fine!” Jia Xiangtian’s eyes were spitting fire, “Feng Yang, I hope you won’t ever step inside the Azure Dragon Galaxy!” This was a blatant threat.

  Feng Yang laughed obnoxiously at Jia Xiangtian’s face, “This old man goes wherever he pleases, can a soft egg like you even block my way? What? If you’re not satisfied, I can spar with you now, let’s see if you’re a soft egg or not.”

  ‘Soft egg?!’

  Jia
Xiangtian’s fists clenched until his knuckles turned white, but in the end, he still repressed the killing intent and fury in his heart, “Feng Yang, today’s matter, I will remember. We’re leaving!” He turned around, arriving beside Xiang Mingzhi in a flash, and left in a streak of light; bringing Xiang Mingzhi with him.

  The remaining people from the Azure Dragon Institute quickly chased up. Compared to their lofty arrival, their leaving postures painted an embarrassing picture.

  “A soft egg can never harden up!” Watching the awkward leaving backs of Jia Xiangtian and his group, Feng Yang’s irrepressible laughter rang out once more, clearly traveling into the leaving Azure Dragon Institute people’s ears.

  Jia Xiangtian nearly gave into his impulse of turning around and having a life and death battle with Feng Yang, but he still reined himself with much effort.

  Shortly after, the Azure Dragon Institute group disappeared from view. Feng Yang didn’t have the intention of stopping them from the beginning. The many masters of various forces remaining in the arena sighed silently in their hearts at the Azure Dragon Institute’s end.

  In the end, in this term’s Black Warrior Institute inner disciples’ assessment, Huwang Xiao won first place, contrary to general expectation! Huwang Xiao’s display of talent and strength not only stunned the institute’s upper echelon, it also stunned the various forces of the Black Tortoise Galaxy.

  Everyone present believed that it wouldn't take long before the entire Black Tortoise Galaxy’s super forces and first rank forces would come to know what took place today.

  No doubt, the Azure Dragon Institute, White Tiger Institute, and also the Vermillion Bird Institute had taken notice of this Black Warrior Institute’s disciple named Huwang Xiao.

  When Huwang Xiao went to receive his first place reward, Feng Yang personally handed out the reward to his youngest disciple, ceaselessly patting his shoulder, crying ‘good’ without end!
