Chapter 73: One Move

'Bang!'

An azure energy instantly exploded from Kyle's body, engulfing his entire form! His seventh-level Nascent Aura climbed to its peak, unleashing an vast pressure in the whole area.

And it just didn't stop there. Kyle additionally traced his spatial ring, bringing out his Mid-grade Mortal weapon, wielding an azure-colored sword.

Combining with this sword, Kyle's aura thickens by several times.

The air around Kyle whirled in a frantic frenzy, recklessly flapping his long hair and clothes. It was like Kyle's mere aura could slightly change the discourse of the air.

Many students and examinees eyes brightly lit up as they recognized this type of energy.

This was the power of Wind energy! Out out of the five standard elemental energies, this was more uncommon to see cultivated.

Wind energy requires a more precise level of control over Fire elemental energy. A cultivator essentially has to harmonize themselves against the raging winds, achieving a certain degree of control over it.

If one can grasp such a concept, the area of damage they can cause would be no less than Fire energy!

The Wind energy currently bursting out of Kyle was razor-sharp. Any weaker cultivator would get mercilessly cut open under this razor-sharp wind.

At this moment, one can say Kyle was unleashing everything he had at the very start!

Kyle truly didn't want to spare anything. If these youths can erupt with this smoldering strength, then he'll just have to make the first strike!

A decisive light burst within Kyle's eyes. Even without Cain releasing his strength, Kyle could feel an ominous feeling creep within his heart. In no way will he get humiliated. He'll win it all with this strike!

"Ahh?! Kyle going all out at the start! He taking no expense!"

The Crimson Sea Academy students and examinees rapidly drew back from the stage. Kyle's aura was too suffocating to even get close to.

The Inner rank students could precisely detect that Kyle's current prowess was also at the very top of all seventh-level Nascent Formation cultivators!

To immediately showcase this level of power, the crowd was surprised. But nobody could honestly blame Kyle.

If they were up there, all of them would've done the same action!

Immediately when Kyle unleashed his full power, he then blasted right towards Cain. His figure blurred, becoming a streak of azure light.

In that instance, Cain only lightly smiles. Then, stimulating a small portion of his Qi Sea, Cain amassed his Lightning Energy.

'Zzzt!'

Thunderous lightning crackled into everyone's eardrums as Cain's Nascent Aura erupted like a volcanic explosion!

As Cain's Aura pressure descended in the area, everyone froze like perfect statues.

Even at the distances they took, students and examinees went utterly pale. Without hesitating, they drew back even further from the stage.

As they all rapidly retreated, their minds were utterly horrified. Is this what they called true genius powers? The disparity between Cain and them was immense, far too immense!

His dense Nascent Qi and Aura was like an endless abyss. There simply was no end to his massive strength.

And at this time, Kyle felt a suffocating lump in his throat.

'What is this power?!'

Kyle desperately wanted to stop. His instincts shrilled at him, telling him he would get crushed in the next moment.

But just at the thought of wanting to retreat, Cain suddenly moved!

Cain effortlessly overtook Kyle's speed, swinging down his lightning-covered fist towards Kyle's bewildered face.

"Hah! Gale Sword!"

Right before he got struck, Kyle's azure-colored sword shined a blinding intensity! The blinding light nearly forced the surrounding crow to shut their eyes tight.

Kyle's prowess reached its absolute limit, and he thrust his blinding azure-colored sword straight towards Cain's lightning-covered fist.

'Bang!'

Unfortunately, no matter how Kyle's prowess increased, it meant absolutely nothing.

Cain's Lightning-covered fist effortlessly batted the azure-colored sword out from Kyle's hand, causing cracks to form on the blade, nearly shattering it.

Kyle wanted to shriek; his wrist completely fractured at that moment!

However, Cain's momentum didn't stop just there. His lightning fist continued unhindered until it violently struck Kyle square on his chest!

The gruesome sound of bones loudly shattering frighten the students' and examinees' wits.

In that instance, Kyle felt as if his chest caved right in. His ribs promptly shattered, his organs violently bled out, and he forcefully puked copious amounts of blood.

Additionally, Cain's Lightning energy penetrated into Kyle's Qi Veins, sealing them up, preventing him from gathering any more energy.

If Cain was cruel as Kali, he could've fried Kyle's cultivation right at that moment.

"Ahh!!" Kyle miserably wailed out as his body was akin to a speeding bullet, shooting faster than the speed he had when rushing towards Cain.

'Bang!'

Kyle brutally slammed into a large tree, nearly breaking it in half. As Kyle slid down the tree, his consciousness had already faded away.

In just a single move, he was beaten in an even more humiliating fashion than Zak.

A deafening silence enraptured the whole courtyard.

Nobody moved or even think for a few moments. And it wasn't until one Inner Ranked student suddenly blurted out,

"This-this power?! What do you even call this?!"

In that instance, everyone broke out in fervent disbelief!

The power Cain showed was even more overwhelming than Kali's! How can anyone within their generation compete at the same level as him? In the future, who knows what sort of terrifying level he will achieve!

"Elder Xue, you did capture every moment of their fights, right?" Elder Mo whispered to Elder Xue as his eyes trailed over Kyle's battered form.

His brows wrinkled in slight worried over the state of this fight.

With Kali, he could clearly perceive the intent maliciousness behind her attacks. It was evident to him that she wanted to thoroughly crush Zak for how to own pride and prestige.

The arrogant smirks, cruel eyes, and overall indifferent stature were more than enough evidence for Elder Mo.

Such an attitude, while overbearing, isn't anything new to him. Many of their Core students act a similar way.

However, with Cain, Elder Mo gained a more peculiar feeling with his action. He clearly had no intent maliciousness behind his attack. And yet, Kyle was left in a far more horrible state than Zak.

The way he so casually cut him down, it was like Cain barely cared at all of the amount of damage he would cause.

A slight chilling feeling crawled down Elder Mo's spine.

Out of all types of genius youths, Elder Mo knows this type of temperament actually comes up the least but is the most unpredictable.

The temperament of true uncaring selfishness birthed by their own self-interest.

Of course, Elder Mo can't say he's 100% sure Cain exactly has this temperament. But the way he so indifferently used his strength, knowing full well he could've let Kyle off easily, was something to take notice of.

"You didn't even need to ask, Elder Mo. I have every little detail record right in these rings." Elder Xue flashed two high-quality recording rings as she spoke.

Then, as she saw Kyle get taken away by another medical practitioner Elder, she slowly shook her head. Her mind couldn't stop replaying the previous battles. Though they were so short, they made a massively profound impact on her.

Lightly sighing, Elder Xue then said, "Heavens….just where did these two youngsters pop up from? Our scope of the city virtually extends to every corner. Anything significant happens, and we should be well-kept and informed. It truly is like these two suddenly appeared from thin air."

Elder Mo didn't respond any further. He then turned his attention back to other students and examinees.

There was no need to announce the results as it was clear as day. So Elder Mo shot a direct look at Cain, telling him,

"You can simply wait by your sister. Because of this victory, you will also be granted the same special rewards."

Cain promptly nodded. This result was perfectly within his expectations. His prowess was even mightier than Kali's, so of course, he could effortlessly crush any type of seventh-level Nascent Formation cultivator.

Before Cain jumped off the stage, a thought sprang into his mind.

In that instance, his Spirit Sense swiftly locked on two distinct presences. His attention then sharply turned, staring dead at specific pair of one young man and woman.

Cain's lips twitched in amusement, seeing Zhao Tan and Zhun Yi's current form.

Neither of them held any of their previous, almighty prestige. Even before his gaze landed on them, these two High-class level Family talents had their eyes glued to the ground.

They both didn't dare to raise their hands high now. Their Martial Hearts wasn't anywhere near as firm to regain back any initial confidence.

Kali's prowess was tremendous. But Cain was simply monstrous! Neither of them could muster an idiota of courage to ever attempt to chase behind his shadow.

'So that's where their limits lie, huh? Guess I really can't expect much. Although, I do wonder when we face more stronger geniuses, can they raise their heads high against our insane talent?'

Cain certainly hopes other geniuses aren't this lacking in confidence. After all, there's no fun in beating down people who don't even have the balls to resist them.

Cain didn't delay any longer after that short exchange. He then jumped right where Kali stood, far off from the other students and examinees.

As he touched right next to Kali, she sweetly smiled at him.

"Hehe~! Good show, brother!" Kali began approvingly slapping down on Cain's shoulder. "You were even more domineering than I. From here on out, our snowball will roll even faster."

Cain only gave a silent, smiling nod in agreement.

Indeed, after today, Cain could positively say the first step of their plan was a complete success.
