Shadowslash was a bit surprised when he heard that the little monk was actually a direct disciple of his friend, he quickly use his spiritual sense to scan him, a light flashes his eyes, he couldn't help but comment "That kid is quite powerful."
Feng Shin and Mei² were shocked when they heard this, they quickly look at their sister with worry, Yan² heard what her father have said, she couldn't help but become excited, she wanted to prove herself.
Mei² asks "Dad, in terms of combat strength, which one is stronger, this sect disciple or Houlong Youhuo, judging from my instinct, it seems that the two aren't that far apart."
Shadowslash turns to the sect disciple and said "This fellow is much stronger than Houlong Youhuo, unlike her, he could access his full potential, if it were on Thousand Forest Continent or any location that has dense Mana, of course Houlong Youhuo would be stronger."
Feng Shin was shocked, he realised what his father was saying, he couldn't help himself from asking "Do you mean that, when Mei² and her fought, she still wasn't in full power? That's incredibly absurd."
Shadowslash knew that this notion is a bit absurd for Feng Shin but he had to say the truth "Houlong Youhuo have a potential to surpass you and her elder brother in just a couple of years if she trains on Thousand Race Empire."
Feng Shin felt his whole world crumbling, if this was the truth, then his talent is trash compared to Houlong Youhuo, Mei² also became depressed after listening to their discussion, she realised that her victory meant nothing if her opponent isn't even able to access her true power.
Shadowslash puts his hand on his daughter and said "If she is capable of improving so much after training on your dad's true territory, do you think that you guys couldn't? Don't give up hope that quickly."
Feng Shin, Mei² and Yan² were immediately filled with spirit hearing his encouragement, Yan² then flew towards the arena, her eyes were blazing with intense fighting spirit, the little monk follows her.
The two faced each other, Gongniu Jinde carries a large gong and put it besides him, he raise his hand and slams it into the gong, with the sound of the gong, Yan² instantly moves, she left an afterimage as she made some distance between her and her opponent.
But she was given a shock when her opponent raise his hand and some kind of pulling force pulled her towards him, she use her sword intent to break the force, her opponent have already expected this.
He raise his hand and throw a golden illusionary palm strike towards her, she transformed into her battle phase and use her ability to instantaneously increase her speed to dodge the attack, the little monk press his hand together.
A Buddha with a bull head and furious expression appeared, the little monk raise his leg, the furious Buddha also did the same thing, both of them stomp at the same time, Yan² flaps her wings knowing most of the stomp attack would affect the ground.
But she didn't expect that the force of the stomp was to actually increase the gravitational pressure that she is experiencing, wether she is on the ground or sky, she crashed back down.
The little monk didn't waste this opportunity, he puts his hand together once again and a the Buddha image once again appeared behind him, he started releasing palm strikes one after another.
Yan² stabs her sword to the ground and use her Qi and sword intent to destroy the surrounding area, she use the force to fly and she started dodging crazily, she was nearly hit several times but fortunately her agility and nimbleness is quite exceptional.
The little monk realised that his opponent is much more trickier than expected, he started glowing in golden light, he was going all out, he raise his leg once again, Yan² saw this and threw a sword strike towards him.
The powerful sword Qi didn't faze the little monk, he took it head on and continue on his action, the sword strike slash him but didn't pierce through his golden body, Yan² let's out a cry as she burst out with black energy.
Bam! The little monk finish his stomp but because of Yan Yan's sudden burst of strength, he failed to bring her down, he brought out his hand and leaps towards her, the furious Buddha image behind him raised it's hand and punch down.
Yan² flaps her wings and left an afterimage that was destroyed by the little monk, the arena started shaking with his attack, Yan² started flying in circle creating numerous afterimages around her.
The lotto monk puts his hand together and tried to sense which was the real target but he failed to do so, meanwhile, Yan² started firing sword strikes after sword strikes trying to whittle down her opponent, both were unable to harm each other.
The little monk has incredible defence, he could take Yan Yan's sword strikes but he wasn't that great at fighting against an agile opponent, he always rely on his stomp attack to defeat any agile opponent.
This is the first time he is fighting against an opponent that his stomp was useless, he could only use his other abilities to try to defeat his opponent such as his pulling ability but he couldn't locate his target that accurately.
Yan² felt thankful because she has great stamina, moving at incredible speed without any rest would definitely be a burden to one's stamina but because of her training and her physical constitution, she would be able to continue fighting at this pace for a whole day.
But she knew that if they continue in their game of cat and mouse, there is only result and that is a draw, she doesn't want this, her eyes gleam, an stops and an image of a black lion appeared behind her with it's scorpion tail raised high.
She charges towards her opponent, the little monk was too late to react, but he is confident that he could take this attack, he started chanting and the furious Buddha image behind him started becoming more and more corporeal.
Bam! Her two swords seems to fuse into one and it actually managed to pierce through the little monk's defence, if he hadn't moved slightly out of instinct, his heart would have been pierced, of course Shadowslash would intervene but this would mean that he lost.
Bang! The furious Buddha smashed it's fist to Yan², she was slammed to the ground, she spat out blood, her body isn't as strong as her brother and her sister, so the amount of damage she could take is much lesser compared to her siblings.
A couple of her bones were actually broken, she started coughing up more blood as she forced herself to stand, the little monk raise his hand once again and the Buddha image behind him follows his action.
He suddenly froze and kneels, his smiling expression changed, he started frowning as he touch the part where Yan² stabbed him, he realized that it was leaking out dark energy more than usual and the sword intent is still present.
He looks at his opponent, knowing that he needed to recuperate for a bit before he is able to attack, he quickly sat down in a meditative position, he started chanting, a Buddha image appeared behind him.
This time the bull headed Buddha image was no longer furious, it look so gentle, gentle golden light filled with vitality started to rain down towards the little monk, Yan² saw this and she started smiling.
The black tiger once again appeared behind her, she then opens her mouth and large amount of energy started converging towards her, even the golden motes of lights that the Buddha image was producing was being absorbed.
Shadowslash nodded when he saw this, Feng Shin and Mei² have a shocked expression, both of them knew what was their sister was using, the technique that their father have popularized, the Heaven Swallowing Technique.
Even though their sister was only using the lowest or weakest version of it, the technique is still considered quite perverted, it is able to utilized the energy from the surrounding to quickly recover or even cultivate at rapid pace.
If one was able to train the true Heaven Swallowing Technique, they could also absorb the energy of their opponent, one could even absorb the cultivation of their target, this is one of the reason why their father didn't release the true version.
Other than the requirement to one's physique, it is also very dangerous if it landed to the hand of the wrong person, other than using the Tree Swallowing Technique, Yan² was also stimulating her primordial bloodline to quickly recover her wounds.
Gongniu Jinde started clapping, he knew that if his disciple lose, it was a defeat that wouldn't embarrassed their sect, he acknowledged that Yan² is a battle genius, not because of her strength but because of her intellect.
