Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
While the spiritual energy on the battle stage where Luo Li and Xie Tianhe were was surging crazily, the battle stage on the other side was quiet. Wen Qingxuan held onto the Golden Battle Spear while her delicate, voluptuous body was wrapped in golden armor. She was looking at the battle stage where Luo Li and Xie Tianhe were. She could sense an astonishing spiritual energy exuding from their blows. She looked grave. Xie Tianhe was not a simple person. He had exchanged blows with Luo Li until now…
“Hahaha, it seems like you are very interested in the fight over there,” Ji Xuan said with a smile and put his hands behind his back. He was also watching the fight.
Wen Qingxuan looked at him lazily and said with a smile, “Ji Xuan, have you no intention of fighting?”
“I have no feud with you. If we fight, one of us will get hurt. I suggest that we wait for them to end their fight,” Ji Xuan said and smiled.
“I think you are afraid of using up too much energy. No matter who wins, you will have a problem, right?” Wen Qingxuan curled her lips and sneered.
Ji Xuan was stunned for a while and then said with a smile, “At the least you will have a better chance as well.”
“You are an unlikeable guy. No wonder Luo Li doesn’t like you.” Wen Qingxuan continued flatly, “No matter how much effort you put in, you will lose to Mu Chen.”
Upon hearing this, Ji Xuan frowned and said, “I have defeated Mu Chen on the Spiritual Road. In this Spiritual Academy Competition, he is not even fit to fight with me. Do you think that I am not better than the loser?”
“You should be well aware of how you have managed to defeat him twice.” Wen Qingxuan sneered.
“We only look at the outcome. In this world, losers are not fit to defend themselves,” Ji Xuan said flatly.
“You are really thick-skinned.”
Wen Qingxuan held the Golden Battle Spear in her hand and went on the stage. She looked coldly at Ji Xuan and said, “During the elimination tournament, you used me as bait to lure Mu Chen out. I will settle the score with you now!”
Boom!
Upon saying this, an astonishing spiritual energy fluctuation surged. Its valiance had surpassed the Three Grades of the Spirit Disaster.
“You don’t seem to buy my idea,” Ji Xuan said flatly.
Swoosh!
The reply he received was a bright spear. The spear dashed past the horizon like a streamer. In the blink of an eye, it appeared before Ji Xuan.
The spear was quick like lightning. As Ji Xuan looked at it, his body shook slightly. However, he had no intention of dodging it. He stood on the spot and allowed Wen Qingxuan to pierce him in the throat.
However, blood did not spew out. Ji Xuan’s body gradually disappeared.
“Afterimage?” someone shouted, looking stunned. Ji Xuan reacted so quickly that they did not even notice when he had moved. His speed was beyond what they could capture with their eyes.
“He is up in the sky!”
Upon hearing this, the audience looked up. They saw Ji Xuan standing in the air above the battle stage. He placed his hands at his back. As the wind blew, his white robe swayed and made him look suave.
Wen Qingxuan was not surprised that she was piercing air. She knew that the attack was useless on Ji Xuan. She stretched forth her hand and formed a seal.
A clear chirping sound resounded in the heavens and the earth. A pair of golden wings appeared behind Wen Qingxuan’s back and spread out. The wings were huge, about 10 feet tall. The golden feathers seemed to be made of gold and they were dazzling.
Swoosh!
Wen Qingxuan flapped the wings. A great wind blew upwards and she disappeared.
Ji Xuan squinted his eyes, and before he could move, a great wind surged from behind him. A golden light spread out, and Wen Qingxuan appeared behind him.
“Let’s see how fast you can go!” Wen Qingxuan said coldly. The golden spear turned into light and she stabbed out.
Swoosh!
Ji Xuan looked coldly at her and formed a seal with one hand. His body shook.
The spear pierced through but again, it was an afterimage.
Ji Xuan appeared again in the air, 1,000 meters away. However, the moment he appeared, Wen Qingxuan had stabbed out with the spear behind him.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Two ghostly figures kept shifting in the air. One afterimage after another had been pierced through. Everyone watched the scene in shock. They did not know when the two had shifted until they exchanged blows.
They moved around swiftly like spirits.
Even those top powers like Wu Ling looked grave as they watched their speed. They knew that if they were the ones facing either Ji Xuan or Wen Qingxuan, they would not be able to avoid the blows.
Although their fight was not earth-shattering, their speed was so quick that it made the onlookers’ hearts leap.
Swoosh!
Ji Xuan appeared again in the sky, but this time around he looked gloomy. Speed was his forte, but he realized that no matter how quickly he moved, he was unable to shake Wen Qingxuan off.
Wen Qingxuan’s speed was comparable to his.
Whoosh!
Wen Qingxuan stabbed again with the spear. She was crafty.
“Ha!” With a shout, a long spear appeared in Ji Xuan’s hand. He stabbed out with a backhand. The tips of the two spears hit each other and the sound of metal resounded. A terrifying wave swirled out like a windstorm.
Seeing that Wen Qingxuan had amazing speed, Ji Xuan gave up his attempt to suppress her with his speed.
As the windstorm swirled out, the two ghostly figures were being thrown back.
Wen Qingxuan held onto the Golden Battle Spear and looked at Ji Xuan. She said with a sneer, “Have you had enough running?”
Ji Xuan looked grave and did not say a word. A majestic Holy Light Spiritual Energy gathered crazily behind him. Instantly, it turned into a huge Sacred Sun.
This was the Divine Technique that he had used on Wen Busheng earlier.
However, Ji Xuan deemed Wen Qingxuan’s power to be greater than Wen Busheng’s. When he changed the seal again, holy light gathered on top of the Sacred Sun. Two more Sacred Suns instantly appeared!
There were three Sacred Suns!
Three Sacred Suns hung behind Ji Xuan. The array was stunning. When Ji Xuan was fighting Wen Busheng, he had not displayed his full strength. He had hidden his actual strength.
“Go!”
Without another word, Ji Xuan flicked his fingers and the three Sacred Suns shot up. They joined together, whizzed down on Wen Qingxuan, and covered her.
As the horrifying Sacred Suns covered up Wen Qingxuan, the shockwave caused the golden battle stage to crack.
Wen Qingxuan gently lifted up her head. She speedily amplified the image of the Sacred Suns in her eyes. She was not fearful. She was still filled with pride.
In the face of such a powerful attack, Wen Qingxuan did not dodge.
Boom! Boom!
The three Sacred Suns bombed down hard, and a bright holy light spread out. The heavens and the earth seemed to be filled with the holy light. Many people were pricked in the eyes and had to keep their eyes shut.
After some time, the holy light gradually dissipated.
Many of the onlookers fixed their gazes on Wen Qingxuan. They wanted to see how she would counter Ji Xuan’s terrifying attack.
As the holy light dissipated, the sky gradually became clear. After which, many people widened their eyes. All of them gasped.
Ji Xuan likewise squinted his eyes.
A golden light spread out in the sky. There was a huge golden phoenix in the golden light. It slowly spread out its wings, and golden light spread out from its body. It seemed to be made of gold. It had a beautiful body, and every part of it was filled with innate dignity and pride. It seemed to be the Revered One of the Creatures.
“That is…”
Even the Chief of Spiritual Academy turned pale and muttered, “That is… the Golden Divine Phoenix!”
The Golden Divine Phoenix was ranked number six in the Spiritual Beasts Ranking Chart.
It had been rumored that only the Spiritual Beast that had the blood of the real phoenix could cultivate the Golden Divine Phoenix. It possessed the power of the Heavenly Sovereign. No one had expected Wen Qingxuan to have cultivated the soul essence of the Golden Divine Phoenix!
Her trump card took everyone by surprise.
The Golden Divine Phoenix slowly flapped its wings. A slender figure with a spear was standing on the huge phoenix. Her beautiful eyes were shining with golden light. She stood proudly and lifted up her head, revealing her long, fair neck. She stretched forth her hand and let down her hair. Her hair fell down like a fountain, and it brightened up the heavens and the earth.
Wen Qingxuan looked extremely attractive at that instant.
Ji Xuan fixed his gaze on Wen Qingxuan and clenched his fists. He had not expected Wen Qingxuan to be this tough to handle.
Wen Qingxuan stared at Ji Xuan from afar. She pointed her Golden Battle Spear and her clear voice resounded throughout. “Ji Xuan, summon your Ancient Dragonhawk now. If you do not, you will not have another chance to do so.”
