  Successful in his attack, Lin Han’s feet touched the stage floor as he floated down from midair. There was a brilliant smile on his face, however, at this exact moment, the smile on his face froze. Disbelief crept into his eye and the mocking, disdainful voices in the area surrounding the fight stage came to an abrupt stop as their eyes widened in shock and disbelief as well. Just like Lin Han, they looked at Huwang Xiao’s silhouette on the battle stage.

  The four corners of the fight stage were quiet, deadly quiet!

 

  Ch.149

  Around the stage, Huwang Xiao took the entire force of Lin Han’s Great Moonlight Fist Style, yet he remained standing as stable as a mountain. The attack didn't affect him in the slightest.

  Chen Caixiu was stunned.

  Chen Xiaojing was stunned.

  On the main platform, both Sun Zhang and Xiong Chu were also stunned.

  The ones watching Huwang Xiao and Lin Han’s battle were stunned speechless at the scene.

  He was fine after taking an attack from the fantastic Moonlight Fist Style by an early Tenth Order warrior like Lin Han?!

  From some distance away, the smile on Zhou Teng’s face vanished immediately as his face sank.

  Huwang Xiao viewed the stunned Lin Han as he used one hand to brush the spot where Lin Han’s fist struck as though he was patting clean some dust.

  “Great Moonlight Fist Style? This mediocre power?” Huwang Xiao’s aloof voice criticized, “Bring out the strength you use to drink milk. That punch just now was like scratching an itch.”

  Scratching an itch?!

  “Wow~~!” The crowd was awestruck.

  What did Huwang Xiao say? Lin Han was an early on Tenth Order, yet his Great Moonlight Fist Style attack was like scratching an itch for him?

  This is too incredibly monstrous!

  The female fans who were disappointed earlier had their spirits rejuvenated and started declaring their love at the top of their lungs once again.

  “Huwang Xiao, you’re so cool~~!”

  “Huwang Xiao, I love you to death!! Kyaaah~~!”

  “Huwang Xiao, you’re too manly, I vow never to marry anyone but you!”

  The feminine students’ passionate confessions attacked Huwang Xiao like tidal waves, one higher than the other.

  On the primary platform, Sun Zhang and Xiong Chu exchanged a look and smiled dryly.

  “This kid, I didn’t realize he previously broken through to the Tenth Order; he really made us worried for nothing!” Sunlight Zhang said as he watched Huwang Xiao.

  Xiong Chu laughed agreeably, “Yes ah, moreover, isn’t his defense a little too tough? But, can you tell the real extent of his power?”

  Sun Zhang shook his head, “I can’t.”

  Although Sunlight Zhang was a Xiantian realm expert, he couldn’t determine Huwang Xiao’s real level of strength.

  Lin Han’s face grew increasingly distorted as he stood on the stage hearing Huwang Xiao’s words and the frenzied screams from the surrounding female students. Angered and embarrassed, Lin Han stared furiously at Huwang Xiao. This little punk actually said he was scratching an itch? Wasn’t this humiliating him? Naked humiliation!

  “Huwang Xiao, I admit your defense is strong, but I don’t believe your attack is just as strong!” Lin Han roared, and a blinding light flashed behind him as a black stele reaching several meters appeared, exuding a chilly and eerie aura.

  This was Lin Han’s martial spirit.

  Looking at Lin Han’s martial spirit, Huwang Xiao could not help but shake his mind with a wry smile. Lin Han’s martial nature was called Black Stele, a tool type of martial heart, but it reminded Huwang Xiao of a tombstone instead.

  Lin Han noticed Huwang Xiao was shaking his head and smiling when he called out his martial spirit, the anger in his center started to burn stronger. He soul transformed immediately, and dark light shrouded his body as a layer of black metal emerged on the surface of his skin.

  In the next moment, Lin Han leaped up and appeared right above Huwang Xiao’s head, and his body spun like a spinning tombstone, pressing down on Huwang Xiao.

  “Thousand Jin Sealing Force!

  This is Lin Han’s martial spirit’s innate ability-- pressuring down on the target just like a monumental mountain capable of crushing everything beneath it into dust!

  Under this pressure, even if it was an expert an order stronger than him such as a mid-Tenth Order warrior, they would need to avoid being hit.

  He didn’t believe Huwang Xiao would stand still as he did before, taking this assault fully.

  Huwang Xiao watched Lin Han diving down at him from above with a calm face. Then, his fingers clenched into a fist and struck upward, just a simple punch that collided head-on with Lin Han’s strike.

  A deafening explosion reverberated in midair.

  Prior to the shocked, spectating eyes of the crowd, Lin Han’s pathetic cry filled the air and his silhouette was seen flying away, crashing down ruthlessly even as the battle stage shook. A cloud of dirt flew through to the stage.

  Gazes shifted dumbly onto the body lying motionless on the stage.

  It ended just like this?!

  Lin Han called out his martial soul, spirit transformed, displayed his martial spirit’s ability, yet he still struck out and lost?

  The silence lasted more than a dozen breaths prior to the Holy Hall erupted within an unprecedented, noisy bedlam.

  “Lin Han lost!!”

  “He went down with just one punch!”

  “What is this Huwang Xiao’s true strength? That is too scary!”

  The crowd fell into crazed discussions, and some of the feminine students’ fanatic screams increased several pitches higher.

  The majority of them were speculating about Huwang Xiao’s real strength.

  Below the stage, Chen Xiaojing stared at the motionless Lin Han on the stage and shook his head in bitterness. Thinking back to his advice to Huwang Xiao to challenge Lin Han next yr, his old face switched red due to embarrassment.

  The small band of male students that held resentment towards Huwang Xiao had their mouths tightly shut.

  Sun Zhang and Xiong Chu were blooming seeing this result.

  Finally, Huwang Xiao grew up!

  This year, Huwang Xiao was once more the class’s first place!

  The undefeated tale continued to live on!

  Even after Huwang Xiao walked down from the battle stage, the roaring discussions still continued.

  From the distant spot, Zhou Teng’s eyes flickered as he stared fixedly at Huwang Xiao.

  The pale-faced youth behind Zhou Teng scoffed, “I didn’t expect that Huwang Xiao’s strength actually reached this level! With his power, perhaps his goal is not as simple as taking the class’s first place!”

  A portly young man said dismissively, “What? Don’t say he dares to compete with Big Bro Zhou for the overall Academy champion spot?”

  The pale-faced youth wanted to say more, but Zhou Teng raised a hand to cut him short, “Enough, no need to say more.” A sharp aura burst out from his body, “This year, no matter who it is, if they dare to block my way to the entire Academy champion position− they must die!”

  Die!

  The killing intent in Zhou Teng’s eyes soared as he declared his stance.

  The pale-faced youth and the students that stood behind Zhou Tong shuddered internally.

  Every student of the inner courtyard knew that Zhou Teng does what he says, and since he had already said that whoever blocks his path to the overall Academy champion position must die, then, someone will surely lose his life!

  Zhou Teng has never reneged on his term!

  Soon, the results for the Third Calendar year Third Class’s first place winners were announced.

  Huwang Xiao was Third Year Third Course’s first place, the first place of the 3rd 12 months Second Class’s was a fatty called Rongguang, and the Third Yr First Course’s first place was Liu Meijun.<
br />
  The Cosmic Celebrity Academy has three great beauties: Li Lu, Chen Caixiu, and the remaining being Liu Meijun!

  Li Lu was the cute and gentle type. Chen Caixiu’s beauty carried a noble dignity. Finally, the feeling Liu Meijun gave everyone was cold, icy elegance, and she was gorgeous like that of the snow lotus that blooms on top of a snowy mountain.

  The third year’s competition was slightly different than the first and second years’. In both earlier years, the champion of each course drew a stick to determine their turns while the third years’ class winners entered the stage at the same time in a knockout battle royale. The last one standing would be the 3rd Year Champion.

  THE 3RD Year Champion was eligible to challenge an inner courtyard student should they be interested in competing for the entire Academy championship.

  Huwang Xiao, Rongguang, and Liu Meijun stood at three different points on the fight stage, creating a triangle formation.

  The battle had yet to begin with, but the flowing undercurrents on the stage were already clashing, and muffled blasts and sparks constantly came from the stage.

  The entirety of Holy Hall’s attention was concentrated on these three people.

 

  Ch.150

  Huwang Xiao stood nonchalantly on his side while Rongguang and Liu Meijun were observing each other warily as battle qi fluctuations surged on the fight stage.

  Originally, the strongest of the Third Year students was First Class’s Liu Meijun, a peak late-Tenth Order warrior, followed by Rongguang, a late-Tenth Order warrior. However, this season a certain Huwang Xiao came out of nowhere.

  The most unpredictable dark horse of the year!

  An atrocious dark horse.

  With the crowd’s attention on the three people on the battle stage, suddenly, dazzling lights from Rongguang and Liu Meijun’s erupted almost simultaneously as both began calling out their martial spirits.

  Rongguang’s martial heart was an Angle-Horned Ox. The ox’s body was completely white with onyx eye, but this Angle-Horned Oxen was extremely corpulent. It was stout with a pudgy body that was nearly round in shape. It had been obviously fat everywhere the eyes could see−quite similar to Rongguang himself, giving one an incongruous feeling viewing this.

  And Liu Meijun’s martial spirit was an ice silkworm!

  It looked soft, and this snow silkworm emanated an icy blue glow. The moment it appeared, the temperature in the entire Holy Temple dropped drastically.

  This was Delusion Ice Silkworm!

  The name sounded beautiful, but it was a martial spirit that made people turn pale.

  Earlier, the Third Year Third Class’s Huwang Wen also had an ice element martial spirit, White Snow. But compared to Liu Meijun’s Delusion Glaciers Silkworm martial nature, Huwang Wen’s was worse by a large gap.

  Fatty Rongguang and Liu Meijun instantly soul transformed as soon as they called out their respective martial spirits.

  After his soul transformation, Fatty Rongguang’s body almost doubled in size as layers of fat bulged out in white, shining glory. An angled horn that was much like his Angle-Horned Ox martial spirit’s, sprouted on his forehead.

  There seemed to be a layer of sparkling ice around Liu Meijun after she soul transformed, and icy blue lights shimmered to make her look even more beautiful and even more cold.

  Viewing their quick actions, Huwang Xiao was insouciant as he said, “Both of you attack together!”

  Both Fatty Rongguang and Liu Meijun were confounded with Huwang Xiao’s sudden remark.

  Attack together?

  The fatty and beauty exchanged a glance.

  In fact, before going up onto the stage, both had the idea of ousting Huwang Xiao first, for Fatty Rongguang and Liu Meijun had a certain understanding towards the other’s strength, but this Huwang Xiao was too mysterious and unpredictable. Neither of these knew the degree of Huwang Xiao’s true strength.

  In their mutual opinion, Huwang Xiao was the biggest risk factor of all.

  First, deal with Huwang Xiao!

  Glancing at one another, both of them simultaneously dashed towards Huwang Xiao to assault.

  Below the stage, Huwang Min and Huwang Xiaohai’s faces tightened with nervousness watching this scene.

  And some distance away, Zhou Teng revealed a cold smirk viewing the scene on the stage unfold. Even he needed to be wary and careful when facing a combined strike from Rongguang and Liu Meijun. He looked ahead to see how Huwang Xiao would offer with their attacks.

  Beneath the crowd’s watchful eye, Rongguang and Liu Meijun’s attacks reached Huwang Xiao.

  Rongguang displayed a fist type battle skill whereas Liu Meijun was using a sword skill.

  The fist was shrouded in a white shine and the sword shot out spheres of sword rays that exuded a chilly energy.

  Just as the attacks reached him, Huwang Xiao moved. Both of his hands formed into fists, and fight qi surged as he punched out, colliding with the two of them in the most direct manner.

  Bang! Dang!

  Two distinctive sounds of collision were heard, and both Rongguang and Liu Meijun exclaimed in shock as their bodies staggered backward awkwardly until the edge of the stage. Liu Meijun fared slightly better than Fatty Rongguang, he wobbled unsteadily at the edge, and his face already flipped white.

  It was clear the impact from Huwang Xiao’s simple punch had injured him.

  Waves of shocked gasps filled the Holy Hall as the crowd witnessed a simultaneous attack by Rongguang and Liu Meijun. Not only did it not harm Huwang Xiao, both of them were pushed back effortlessly.

  Huwang Min and Huwang Xiaohai breathed out in relief.

  Chen Caixiu’s tensed expression also relaxed.

  Needless to say, Sun Zhang and Xiong Chu danced with joy seeing how strong Huwang Xiao had become.

  Zhou Teng’s face darkened gloomily, and a strong killing intent flitted in his eyes.

  Ignoring the crowd’s reaction, Huwang Xiao looked at his two opponents, “Use your most powerful attack.”

  Most powerful assault!

  It had been hard to conceal the surprise in Rongguang and Liu Meijun’s eye. Their joint assault was easily deflected by Huwang Xiao?! Not to mention Huwang Xiao not even spirit transforming, he previously yet to use his martial heart ability, or a battle skill for that matter.

  Neither of these uttered a word. Then, a coruscating white light burst out from Rongguang’s body like a violent volcano eruption.

  As the white light grew more intense, a streak of blue lightning emerged on Rongguang’s body.

  Although this lightning wasn’t thick, the energy radiating from it was so terrifying that students who stood close to the stage immediately retreated in panic.

  At the same time, ice blue light glittered around Liu Meijun that condensed into blooms of snowflakes!

  An energy more apprehensive than Fatty Rongguang’s lightning streak continued to condense and build up around Liu Meijun.

  Expressions below the stage became somber.

  The commotion earlier came for an abrupt halt, and the big hall fell into a thick silence.

  Even the sound of a falling needle could be heard.

  Everyone was aware, the next strike would be Fatty Rongguang and Ice Beauty Liu Meijun’s most effective attack combined with their martial spirit’s capability. A joint attack of these two people going all out... could Huwang Xiao take them on?

  Sensing the power building up around his opponents, Huwang Xiao offered an appreciative nod inwardly. These two’s strength was indeed commendable if indeed they went against another opposition of the same level. There was probably no one that could take their joint attack head-on.

  Unfortunately, they met him.

  Instead of calling away his martial spirit, Huwang Xiao called out the Blades of Asura. Dark strands of energy surfaced, swirling around his physique as the aura of slaughter via Huwang Xiao grew heavier. His eyes converted scarlet and wings the color of e
bony spread out from his back again.

  At exactly the same time, Huwang Xiao initiated the Golden Linglong Body, crystallized golden sparkles glimmered on the top of his pores and skin.

  “Angle-horn Lightning!”

  “Snow Silkworm Delusion Palm!”

  At this point, Fatty Rongguang and Ice Beauty Liu Meijun’s tone of voice resounded on the stage as their attack shot out towards Huwang Xiao.

  Jagged streaks of lightning shot out from the angle horn on Fatty Rongguang’s forehead, splitting through space. Glaring white-colored energy burned across the stage like raging waves at Huwang Xiao.

  A palm struck away from Glaciers Beauty Liu Meijun at exactly the same time she cried out. The palm pierced through space, bringing a rainbow of icy blue glow flying towards Huwang Xiao. When this icy blue shine shot over the air, the air flow around it seemed to fall into deep slumber as if in a world of blue glaciers.

  Huwang Xiao continued to be calm even while he found this, everyone saw him raise both his hands and sent strike palms out.

  “God Binding Palm!”

  Huwang Xiao’s voice echoed from the stage.

  The crowd saw two golden shadows of a palm that appeared as if a golden ring spinning towards Rongguang and Liu Meijun. Wherever they passed, Rongguang and Liu Meijun’s attack were actually suspended in the air. Yes, both of their most powerful episodes halted strangely in the air.

  Inexplicable!

  Watching this magical picture, on the main platform, Sun Zhang and Xiong Chu jumped up from their seats in synchronization, ‘beyond belief’ was written all over their faces. The rest in the Holy Hall were speechless.

 

  Ch.151

  “How is this possible?!”

  “How could this happen?! Rongguang and Liu Meijun’s assault actually froze in the midst of moving!”

  “What’s really happening?!”

  In an instant, there was nothing but questions running through the crowd’s minds.
