She radiated with thunderous lightning arcs all over her body, resembling a female God of Thunder descending to Earth, her force domineering and unstoppable as she ruthlessly annihilated her opponent.
Soon, she was teleported back.
“Brother Jiang, how was it?” Lan Xin asked with a smile.
“Amazing!” Jiang Ming raised a thumbs-up in approval.
“How long could I have lasted in your hands with the performance 1 just displayed?” Lan Xin inquired.
Long Aotian, Qin Zhiyan, Tian Tian, and the surrounding students all turned to look.
Jiang Ming simply smiled and kept silent.
“I see!” Lan Xin sighed, her fighting spirit surging, “This is what a real worthy opponent is! Brother Jiang, 1 can hardly wait!”
One by one, the duels continued.
In the ninth round, it was Qin Zhiyan’s turn.
She had ranked second in the selection, losing only to Qiang Jiu.
“She’s very strong, really strong!” Lan Xin acknowledged solemnly, “1 have watched all of her battles, and she has improved in each one. Her mastery over water and fire integration is also getting more skillful. Just comprehending one of either Water path or Fire path is already extremely commendable, but she has managed to understand both and even grasp the path of fusion. Against her, 1 have absolutely no confidence in winning.”
“Neither do l!” Long Aotian agreed seriously, “Moreover, I feel that there is more to her Sword Intention, as if she is capable of showcasing even more formidable sword techniques. She is indeed a worthy opponent!”
“It’s a battle of dragons and tigers!”
“Win or lose!”
“Move forward or retreat!”
Long Aotian clenched his fists together, his strength erupting. Fortunately, a special force field was present to eliminate the impact of his collision.
Soon enough, Qin Zhiyan returned victorious.
She was the first student to have reversed the odds and broken into the top ten.
“How was it?” Qin Zhiyan looked at Jiang Ming, anticipation in her eyes.
“Very good, you have grown rapidly,” Jiang Ming said sincerely. “You’ve gained experience through battling and have grown steadily while being cautious. However, the top five are not guaranteed. As for the path of water and fire, I have some insights. Let me help you.”
As his words fell, he pointed right at Qin Zhiyan’s forehead.
She didn’t evade.
“Transmitting methods through thoughts? Damn!” Long Aotian swore, pointing at Jiang Ming with a trembling hand. “Are you…are you really a human?”
“Definitely not human!” Lan Xin couldn’t help laughing bitterly.
A single minute touch could reveal so much.
He was surprisingly also a soul cultivator, or rather a divine cultivator… a cultivator.
And his realm was not low.
“Little Dragon, are you still struggling?”
“How can 1 not struggle? I am a Dragon, a True Dragon bloodline!”
“But why is your face so terribly distorted?”
“Distorted? No, this is happiness. My muscles are in a frenzy, my skin is cheering, my heart jumping for joy.”
“Haha!”
Lan Xin couldn’t help but laugh.
Qin Zhiyan also absorbed what Jiang Ming had transmitted, her eyes filled with surprise. She didn’t say thank you, but simply stated, “I will make it into the top five!”
Jiang Ming nodded.
Being classmates for such a long time, they shared a good relationship. Naturally, he hoped that she would be able to go further. It was nothing for him to lend a helping hand.
In the next round, Qiang Jiu showcased even more dazzling skills, killing the student who was previously ranked tenth in just a few attacks.
Then, he looked at Jiang Ming and raised his eyebrows, full of provocation.
The duels continued, one after another, all of them extremely exciting.
In the second round, Jiang Ming stood still, the Yin and Yang rotating. He saw that his opponent was just skirting around the edge and attacking from the outside, so he had no choice but to expand the Yin-Yang Tai Chi Diagram suddenly, trapping his opponent within.
After that, there was no more ‘after that.’
In the following rounds, no one was able to break his Yin-Yang Tai Chi Diagram.
Simply by standing still, he defeated all the geniuses.
Finally, he once again found himself facing an opponent on the top.
His opponent was Qin Zhiyan.
“Brother Jiang, please show me the way!” Qin Zhiyan cupped her fist in one hand.
“Let’s pit fire against fire and water against water!” Jiang Ming also gestured back, saying this while his Qi gushed out, his water-fire realm merged within it. As it rotated, it formed a Tai Chi shape once again.
Only this time, it was formed by the power of water and fire.
“Thank you!” Qin Zhiyan showed a grateful expression.
Jiang Ming’s water-fire Tai Chi diagram suddenly expanded, covering a range of a hundred meters, trapping her within it.
Only then did Qin Zhiyan move. In the face of the Sword Qi, she defended while also sensing the trajectory of the Sword Qi, along with the hidden Dao Resonance of water and fire around her.
She knew that Jiang Ming was transmitting his technique to her, so naturally, she seized the opportunity, completely immersing herself in it, tangling with the Sword Qi that Jiang Ming had created.
This sight stunned quite a few people.
“Publicly transmitting techniques on the battle platform, wow, they’re even showing affection before the entire Federation. Brother Jiang is amazing. This kind of romance is simply unheard of. Coupled with transmitting techniques, wouldn’t Miss Qin be completely devoted?” Long Aotian’s eyes glowed with excitement. “I’ve learned, really learned a lot.”
“There’s not a single good man out there. However, Miss Qin does have feelings for him, but Brother Jiang seems indifferent.” Lan Xin huffed.
“Brother Jiang seems indifferent?” Long Aotian looked surprised and then shook his head, “Impossible, absolutely impossible! Miss Qin is sweet and unrivaled in her exquisite beauty, has a top-notch figure, and is a martial arts prodigy. How could Brother Jiang not be moved by her? Moreover, how would you know for sure?”
“Never underestimate a woman’s intuition,” Lan Xin huffed again. “Brother Jiang must have had a complex experience in the Secret Realm World.”
“Did he start a harem?” Long Aotian was excited.
“You pig!” Lan Xin was speechless, but then frowned, “Haven’t you noticed yet? Brother Jiang has fused the power of water and fire to the extreme. Even though he has the Way of Yin and Yang, it’s still incredible. Also, the range of his Qi is too wide, isn’t it? Covering a hundred meters in all directions, the Qi still remains extremely dense, evolving into endless Sword Qi. Just how profound is his Qi capacity? To what extent has he opened up his Dantian Space?”
“The top ten realms do indeed have Heaven-Defying effects, and moreover…” Long Aotian looked serious, “He has entered the Fifth Realm of the Martial Arts and has opened up his acupoints, which is why his Qi volume is terrifyingly high..”
