The Dragon and Phoenix contestants also erupted simultaneously. Their hands clasped together, and those initially separate blue and red glows suddenly converged inward, turning into a massive green and red tornado that swept upwards. As the saying goes, wind aids the fire's intensity, and with wind and fire melding together, they transformed into a giant wind fire tornado that directly covered a large area around them.Before the battle began, they had already determined that they could not let Tang San get close to them at any cost. By maintaining a distance, they aimed to limit Tang San's capabilities. Both the Wind Dragon Clan and the Undying Fire Phoenix were adept at mid-to-long-range attacks, and their abilities were far more than just the sum of two when combined. Almost no Demon King Level strong individuals could compete against their joint efforts.
They had even anticipated that Tang San and Pretty Girl would choose to strike first. After all, only by getting close could Tang San and Pretty Girl find their opportunity.
Silver light flickered, and when Pretty Girl reappeared, she was right in front of the Wind Dragon tornado, holding not a Peacock feather in her hand. Yes, it had been switched. During her teleporting, the Peacock feather had been replaced.
She now held a slender silver-white feather peculiarly featuring three eyes at the rear—indeed the Heavenly Mechanism Feather.
At this moment, Pretty Girl's eyes had turned completely silver-white, as if she were the messenger of Space, with illusory yet real waves of silver radiance flowing out from the Heavenly Mechanism Feather, stacking upon each other in the air. Each glint of light flashing from that feather signified a Spatial crack, and when those cracks overlapped, it wasn't just Space that was being rent—it was creating strange spatial folds and variations.
This strike unleashed a massive Peacock phantom behind Pretty Girl, a Silver peacock crowned with gold, spreading its wings wide, revealing a splendid spectacle akin to a Peacock's tail fan, towering dozens of meters high, pressuring all surrounding Space, with only that overlapping series of Spatial cracks quietly slicing downwards!
In front of the wind fire tornado, a crevice appeared, that silver fissure silently devoured the violent wind and fire elements, and just like that, it forcefully carved out a crack. The folded Space continuously exploded, bursting with dazzling silver light, but the crack slowly expanded in a short time. Pretty Girl had managed, by her strength alone, to create a gap in the combined attack of the Dragon and Phoenix Combination.
The Dragon and Phoenix contestants couldn't help but show surprise, for even God level strong individuals found it hard to achieve this! Their eyes instantly blazed with light, daring not to hold back any longer.
But just as they were preparing to give it their all, driving the wind fire tornado to swallow the Spatial cracks and even devour Pretty Girl in the process, that streak of golden light had already arrived!
Teleporting is undoubtedly faster than flying, but the speed of the Golden Peng Transformation's flight over such a distance is scarcely slower than teleporting.
Facing a two-against-one, even with the powerful divine tool, the Heavenly Mechanism Feather, Pretty Girl could only keep the crevice in the wind fire tornado open for an instant. But that instant was already enough for Tang San.
Without slowing down in the slightest, as if unafraid that the wind fire tornado might close that moment and tear him apart, he charged forth recklessly. He burst through that crack, spinning rapidly as he did so. His wings became the sharpest of blades. Like an incredibly sharp golden wheel, he cleaved into the wind fire tornado, reaching the Dragon and Phoenix contestants in almost an instant.
All of this happened so quickly that the audience could only see flashes of light.
Only Cheng Zicheng, who never took her eyes off the contest, realized that what Tang San was using was the very Golden Wing Cloak Slash she had been painstakingly practicing! However, the speed, power, and explosiveness Tang San demonstrated were leagues beyond her own. It was the Golden Wing Cloak Slash bolstered by the Lion Tiger Golden Firmament!
In the instant Tang San charged in, Pretty Girl was surrounded by silver light, teleporting away. The fissure that had been cut open also closed instantaneously.
"Clang!" The ear-piercing sound of metal clashing suddenly erupted.
Nearly at the very next moment, the wind fire tornado was already dissipating in the air.
Those with keen vision among the spectators could see Golden light slicing through the wind fire tornado.
The Wind Dragon contestant threw himself in front to protect the Undying Fire Phoenix contestant, punching out as his fist and arm were completely covered in azure dragon scales. Each scale erupted with a terrifying storm's fury, colliding fiercely with the Golden Wing Cloak Slash that struck out of nowhere.
The golden figure was almost instantly repelled and sent flying backward. Even in that instant, the sound of breaking bones could be heard.
The Wind Dragon Clan contestant's body was frozen in place, immobile. It was at this moment that the Wind and Fire Tornado shattered.
The golden figure was abruptly rebounded upward, and as silver light flashed, Pretty Girl appeared in the inevitable path of the golden figure, catching him with both hands.
At this moment, Tang San's mouth and nose bled, and even his ears were bleeding from the shock. Both of his golden wings were broken, drooping limply by his sides. After being caught by Pretty Girl, he immediately spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his face pale as gold leaf.
"Brother, how are you? You..." The horror in Pretty Girl's beautiful eyes was palpable. She had never imagined that a single collision would inflict such damage on Tang San.
Tang San smiled and shook his head, "I'm all right. My task is done, now it's up to you."
It wasn't until this moment that changes began appearing on the other contestant from the Wind Dragon Clan.
Starting with the palm, the cyan dragon scales on the hand he had collided with Tang San began to crack, spreading along the hand to the arm. Accompanying the breaking scales were his own palm and arm, which continued to splinter upwards.
With a boom, the entire right arm of the Wind Dragon Clan contestant, together with his right shoulder and half of his chest, suddenly exploded, revealing glimpses of his internal organs, with too many ribs to count broken. He fell to the ground with a muffled groan, spewing out mouthfuls of fresh blood.
Though the Dragons possessed extraordinary life force, it was clear that even if he survived, he had no strength left to continue the fight.
The entire arena erupted into commotion in an instant!
Nobody had anticipated that this two-on-two match would commence with such a scenario.
A single collision, just one collision, and both sides suffered equally severe injuries. Tang San's intention to trade injury for injury had left his opponent severely wounded. But at the same time, he himself was gravely injured, with his wings broken during the execution of the Golden Peng Transformation; it rendered the transformation useless. At the very least, he shouldn't even think about using it again for a month.
The wings of the Golden Peng Transformation were transformed from the rib bones of the back, so broken wings meant broken ribs, and not just one! It was three on each side, amounting to six broken ribs in total.
But the results achieved were also excellent, it was obvious that the injuries sustained by the Wind Dragon Clan contestant were worse than those of Tang San.
If both sides were to be carefully assessed, Tang San might still have some strength to continue fighting, but the Wind Dragon Clan contestant definitely could not carry on.
In terms of strength, many in the arena were Demon Kings, even of the Great Demon King Level. But when it comes to combat experience, no one could be said to compare with Tang San. Sёarᴄh the novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Once Tang San saw that their opponents were a Dragon and Phoenix Combination, he knew they were in for a tough battle. The dragon and phoenix bringing auspicious omens is a legend from his past life. The Dragon and Phoenix Clans' synergy is naturally impeccable. He and Pretty Girl had some tacit understanding as well, but certainly not on the same level as their opponents.
Moreover, both the Dragon and Phoenix Clans boasted the most powerful first-level bloodlines. The fire and wind elements were also complementary. On top of that, their opponents were both at the Ninth Stage peak.
