Chapter 143: 123: A Favor for a Grown-up! Number One in Jiangbei!_3

"A sudden enlightenment?" Li Yuan couldn't help but smile, as he had already felt Tian Dazhuang's sword technique was undergoing a rapid transformation.

Subconsciously.

Li Yuan's long spear moved even faster, spear shadows intertwined, completely suppressing Tian Dazhuang.

The build-up of the Twelve Continuous Strikes had already reached its apex, but Li Yuan controlled the spear momentum to switch and did not fully release it, instead applying full pressure on Tian Dazhuang, trying to give him even greater stress.

Finally.

Li Yuan felt Tian Dazhuang's sword technique gradually becoming stable; it was clear the breakthrough was nearing its end.

Tian Dazhuang's eyes also became brighter, fixed on Li Yuan, as if seeing the hope of victory.

"Haha."

"Be careful, Dazhuang," Li Yuan suddenly laughed, spear shadows bursting forth like rollicking waves.

Like a breached dam.

"Boom!" The terrifying long spear tore through the vast sky, like a boulder whistling down, containing an unbelievable impact force.

As fast as lightning, as heavy as a mountain.

"Not good." Tian Dazhuang, who had just broken through, felt his joy not yet dissipated when his face drastically changed, sensing Li Yuan's aura completely transformed, with an unshakeable presence.

Subconsciously he raised his sword to counter.

After one collision, Tian Dazhuang was blasted back several steps, his internal energy roiling uncomfortably.

"Retreat!"

Fighting the discomfort, Tian Dazhuang tried to dodge.

"Dawn Piercing Clouds." Li Yuan, however, was on a roll, unleashing the Galaxy Waterfall and instantly following with the "Dawn Piercing Clouds" technique.

"Whoosh!" Another dreadful spear light tore through the vast sky, its speed reaching the extreme, faster than the previous move.

This was Li Yuan's burst of maximum speed.

"This quick?" Tian Dazhuang found it difficult to believe, barely able to see the burst of this spear thrust.

He could only swing his sword subconsciously.

"Pfft!"

Before the broadsword could block the attack, the spear light had already swept past his neck, blood flowing.

Tian Dazhuang felt his body becoming ethereal, understanding that this swift spear thrust had directly taken his life.

He lost.

It was an unquestionable defeat.

But Tian Dazhuang harbored no feelings of defeat; he was utterly convinced by his loss and filled with gratitude. seaʀᴄh thё Nôvel(F)ire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Tian Dazhuang understood, if Li Yuan had fully erupted from the start, he would have been defeated in just tens of moves.

The other party had seen his sword technique breakthrough and had consciously aided him, not exploding in full force.

...

Whew! Tian Dazhuang's figure completely vanished.

"I won." Li Yuan revealed a smile, as he had just received the system prompt.

Points reached 1000, and he could now enter the promotion match.

"A fight, and my movement technique improved by 2%?" Li Yuan was slightly surprised, instantly understanding that this was because of greater control over his body.

Suddenly.

"Hmm?" Li Yuan sensed something, it was a V-message from Tian Dazhuang.

Just two words: "Thank you."

This was their first exchange since adding each other on V. Li Yuan smiled and replied with three words: "You're welcome."

He closed the communication.

"I won."

"Back at the Jiangbei recruiting event, I was the number one in the combat assessment," Li Yuan thought, "The then universally acknowledged strongest skill holder Tian Dazhuang, now, has also fallen to my hands."

"Of the million senior high students in Jiangbei Province," Li Yuan muttered to himself, "I, now, should truly be considered the number one in Jiangbei, right?"

The number one in real combat!

The number one in skill!

"On this long Martial Path, surpassing each opponent, becoming stronger," Li Yuan grasped a hint of accomplishment.

Martial Path, constantly surpassing, becoming ever stronger!

"Confirm, participate in the Bright Moon promotion match," Li Yuan said deeply, instantly transforming into a streak of light and scattering away.

...

"I won."

"This Li Yuan, is truly remarkable, seeing Tian Dazhuang's breakthrough, he actually allowed his opponent to break through," two observers in the Observation Space expressed their surprise.

"He's very confident," said the observer in black robes with a smile, "Such magnanimity is also very rare."

"Indeed, it's rather exceptional for Kunlun Martial University to produce such a student," the observer in white robes also nodded in approval.

Some ten minutes later.

"Oh, he won his Bright Moon promotion match, he won quite cleanly and decisively."

"It wasn't a challenge for him."

"I'll check... including those from the three top-tier famous schools, there are only 17 Bright Moon stage students of this year's first-year students globally, adding him, and well, Tian Dazhuang should be able to reach it in a few days too."

"Yes, but Li Yuan is very young."

"He's our Xia Country's first to reach Bright Moon stage before turning 18 this year, and the third globally."

"Let's issue the rewards, and also notify Starfire Martial Hall and Kunlun Martial University directly, don't wait for the Starry Skies Fighting Network to do it."
