In front of the two houses, there is a wide view, with schools of colorful Dragon Carp swimming in the azure lake that is as blue as a jewel.

"Please!" the White-clothed Youth said, his black hair fluttering in the wind, his eyes deep, his left hand behind his back, always composed and confident.

The grass where Wu Yaozu stood was lush and green, but now it exploded with a bang. He suddenly rushed forward, the force of his feet was too strong.

In an instant, the two collided, displaying no skill whatsoever, and immediately seeking a head-on collision.

Wu Yaozu was extremely Qi Ingestion. These people were being too hypocritical. How did he become a madman? If that's how it is, then he'll show them what madness is all about.

The White-clothed Youth, confident in his status, naturally agreed to fight to the end, seeing the other party's attitude. There was no reason for him to avoid others directly; it was always his opponents who avoided him.

With a deafening roar, it was as if thunder had exploded over the area. The grass beneath their feet was not only cracked open as if struck by a meteorite, but also scorched black.

"How is this possible?!" The dozen or so teenagers were stunned.

Because the White-clothed Youth's sleeves were torn, he was constantly retreating, and his expression was extremely solemn. Had he encountered a truly formidable opponent? Wu Yaozu was also retreating, but he had a smile on his face, full of confidence.

In the eyes of the group of teenagers, the two newcomers were just nameless nobodys, utterly insignificant, and how could they compare to the White-clothed Youth?

"This... it's a draw!" The senior student leading the way was dumbfounded. He hadn't brought two greenhorns, but two formidable dragons crossing the river?

It should be noted that only the underlings have made a move; the elder brother hasn't even joined the fray yet! Qin Ming nodded secretly, not worried at all.

"Come on!" The White-clothed Youth attacked again.

He uses the New Life Path as a secondary path, mainly following the God Path of the Esoteric Sect. Now, as he raises his hand, his palm emits an extremely dazzling light, and a bolt of lightning flashes across the void.

He was actually a born ability user, and someone who wielded lightning—no wonder he was so confident! Because, there's a saying that when the power of lightning is accumulated to its extreme, it can "punish" opponents from all walks of life, making it an incredibly domineering ability.

After the White-clothed Youth used the methods of the New Life Path to directly confront Wu Yaozu, he used his "ultimate move" the second time, which shows that he attaches great importance to Wu Yaozu and wants to end the battle quickly.

His companions all showed joy. Now that he had unleashed such power, it was probably a good chance to defeat this strange boy as soon as possible.

Wu Yaozu's pupils contracted, but he did not panic. A Rainbow Light that flew out from his body was very special and extremely bright. It transformed into an arch bridge and drew the lightning across!

However, the lightning did not strike the bridge. Instead, just before it made contact, it changed direction and disappeared into the lake not far away. With a loud bang, the lake surface exploded, water vapor billowed up, and some brightly colored Dragon Carp turned belly up, all of them cooked.

"The transformation of Yin and Yang?!" The White-clothed Youth was taken aback, his expression turning solemn. The bridge formed from Rainbow Light initially simulated his lightning.

Then, it went a step further and underwent changes in Yin and Yang.

Wu Yaozu remained silent. The Rainbow Light transformed into an arched bridge, drawing in a large amount of water mist from the lake, which rose around him in preparation for using it to fight the enemy.

Qin Ming exclaimed in admiration, "The Rainbow Light within Little Wu's body is indeed extraordinary; it just now even manifested Yang Thunder!"

Naturally gifted individuals are extremely rare, and whenever one appears, they are highly valued and carefully nurtured by all parties involved.

The White-clothed Youth was now glowing, crackling with lightning, and the grass beneath his feet smelled burnt, already completely black.

In his hand appeared an irregularly shaped spear formed from condensed lightning. He charged towards the Little Wu ahead, the spear crackling and carrying terrifying flashes of thunder as it pierced his opponent's chest.

In this area, a large amount of water mist surged, as if a river was flowing from the blue lake ahead. Wu Yaozu used Divine Rainbow bridge to connect with the water and submerge the spear of lightning.

In an instant, a massive explosion occurred here.

The water vapor boiled, lightning flashed, one after another, and a golden arch bridge stretched across the sky, seemingly able to guide all things and dismantle divine magic.

Two figures moved swiftly amidst lightning and Divine Rainbow, colliding repeatedly with deafening explosions. In front of the house was a lake, constantly being churned into huge waves.

The houses are flanked by lush bamboo and Golden Vine Tree swaying in the rosy light, creating a beautiful scene. However, some of the trees are now bursting open and breaking apart.

The beautiful scenery was ravaged, and the two fought True Fire, their passion running high. The dozen or so men and women nearby were all shocked.

What's going on? They're just two nobodys, never heard of them before, and I've never even seen them before. How could this be so outrageous?!

The younger of the two can rival the most celebrated figures!

The senior student leading the way was so shocked that his scalp tingled. He felt that something terrible was about to happen today. If the White-clothed Youth was defeated here, there would be no way to end the night...

The dozen or so teenagers were extremely nervous and anxious; they couldn't afford for anything to go wrong here.

The two figures in the arena seemed to be constantly teleporting, like two ghostly figures traversing the night fog. They were moving at extreme speed, and were entangled with lightning and Rainbow Light, all of which were extremely dazzling and exuded an incomparably dangerous aura.

Thunderclouds erupted and Divine Rainbow burst forth between them from time to time. They clashed fiercely many times, and the intertwined light could easily tear apart others of the same realm.

Qin Ming nodded inwardly; this White-clothed Youth was indeed extremely strong! Thump!

From the torn parts of the White-clothed Youth's clothes, a small, silvery-white bell appeared in his hand, gleaming and crackling with electricity. He wielded it and struck his opponent in front of him.

Qin Ming frowned slightly, because it was not formed from lightning, but a physical object, a rare treasure, that could amplify the power of thunder.

However, Wu Yaozu didn't need him to worry.

At this moment, instead of retreating, Little Wu advanced, showing no intention of dodging, and charged forward without fear, determined to shake the silver Bell Body.

At the last moment, people realized that he had taken out Yellow Bronze Pestle, more than half a foot long, from his pocket and smashed it down with all his might. Boom!

Sparks flew, accompanied by a crisp metallic clanging sound.

All the lightning was dispersed by the Yellow Bronze Pestle, which was also a rare and powerful treasure. With a soft crack, a fissure appeared in the silver Bell Body held by the White-clothed Youth.

At the same time, he was struck by the Rainbow Light emanating from Wu Yaozu's body, and his whole body flew out, blood gushing from his mouth and nose, and he fell onto the scorched black grass by the lake.

"Brother, are you alright?" Little Wu asked, without giving chase.

The scene was completely silent. The dozen or so young men and women were all dumbfounded, never expecting that the White-clothed Youth seemed like Bright Moon in their eyes would be injured by an unknown nobody.

Soon, the girl in yellow ran over and shouted, "How are you?" The others also snapped out of their daze and rushed over.

The White-clothed Youth swiftly stood up, shaking his head and saying, "I'm fine, my injuries aren't that serious."

His expression was complex, a mixture of shock, helplessness, and heartache. He was hailed as Heavenly Prodigy, yet today he had inexplicably been defeated by an unknown young man.

This made his chest tighten; his journey had been too smooth, and he had never tasted such defeat before. "Who are you? With skills like this, you can't be nobody!" the girl in yellow shouted. Now, no one would consider these two to be nobodys anymore.

"I am Wu Yaozu, and some people also call me Little Ancestor," Little Wu said.

Then, he pointed to Qin Ming and said, "This is my elder brother, Shen Wubing. One day, the two of us brothers will be famous throughout the Night Mist World."

Those present exchanged bewildered glances, having never heard of either of them.

But that night, they remembered the two men vividly.

"I've lost. This place is yours now. But please wait a moment while I tidy up!" The White-clothed Youth readily agreed, turning and walking into the room.

"We..." The others clenched their fists, extremely unwilling, but then they relaxed them. What else could they do? Even the strongest among them was no match for them.

The girl in yellow, her face dark, went to her house to pack her things. She was angry, but there was nothing she could do.

"This... this is terrible!" The senior student leading the way was completely stunned. Tonight was supposed to be the focus of everyone's attention, a showdown of epic proportions—could it still proceed smoothly?

"Can you fight tonight?" The girl in yellow asked anxiously. "It's alright, my injuries aren't serious. I can recover immediately after taking the elixir." The White-clothed Youth took out a clear crystal containing a golden liquid that emitted a soft glow.

A moment later, his whole body glowed, Golden Haze flowed around him, his complexion quickly became rosy, and his body was full of vigorous vitality. He had returned to his strongest state.

Qin Ming already knew that Little Wu would win.

Because he knew very well that Wu Yaozu was hiding his true strength and had not shown his full power.

Most importantly, he sensed that Little Wu's cultivation level was rather strange and there were some problems. The White-clothed Youth and the yellow-robed girl and their group departed.

"This is quite a commotion..." Qin Ming and Little Wu exchanged glances, because after their exchange, they had already guessed the identity of the White-clothed Youth.

"How about we beat up the other one too? That would be fair," Little Wu suggested.

Beside them, the older students who were leading the way stared at the two from a distance with the look of someone looking at monsters, before finally steeling themselves and walking over.

"Gentlemen, the lawn, bamboo, and Golden Vine Tree have been severely damaged. According to the academy's regulations, you are one of the parties involved. You not only have to compensate for half of the Day Gold but also pay a fine."

Instantly, both of them stared wide-eyed at the astonishing amount of Day Gold involved, feeling as if they were already bankrupt before even paying their tuition.

In the evening, the Heavenly Prodigy took place as scheduled.

Kun Jun has more than a dozen top-level training grounds and academies. A large number of disciples flocked to the Mountain River Academy, and the arena was already overcrowded.

Many other Consciousness Spirit Light intertwined in the night sky, observing the battle from above.

The entire Kun Jun City was abuzz with discussion, and many were eagerly awaiting the outcome of the battle. Even the Night Report sent messengers to provide follow-up reports.

At the Mountain River Academy, the arena for the duel was packed, with even some senior figures in the VIP section. Many people without tickets listened outside to hear the results of the battle.

The crowd erupted in thunderous cheers, clearly indicating the match was incredibly exciting. "Both are exceptionally talented, incredibly strong, and among the best of this year!"

"Both players are running on two separate tracks, there are many interesting things to see..." someone commented. Boom!

A tremendous roar, seemingly piercing the clouds, signaled the end of the great battle. "The result is in: Xin Youdao lost!"

"Alas, what a pity! Our strongest New Life this year at the Mountain River Academy is ultimately no match for Ling Yu of the Hundred Cities of Trial Swords." Soon, dissenting voices seemed to rise from the scene.

"Breaking news! The Heavenly Prodigy Xin Youdao was already injured before even making his appearance!"

However, this voice was quickly suppressed and did not cause a major stir before the relevant parties swiftly "debunked" it.

People from various academies and universities are discussing it enthusiastically, especially the New Life of this year, who feel incredibly excited and mesmerized. Many are extremely thrilled.

"This is truly a showdown between two geniuses of Heavenly Prodigy; the vote was well worth it!"

"Ling Yu incredibly powerful. He maintained an overwhelmingly dominant stance from beginning to end. He truly lives up to his reputation as the Young Ancestor destined to Sword Testing Under the Heavens!"

At this moment, Ling Yu looked at the girl in yellow beside Xin Youdao and asked, "Are you saying that Brother Xin was injured and was severely wounded by someone beforehand, and that you suspect I arranged it?"

"That's right, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence!" the girl in yellow said indignantly.

Xin Youdao waved his hand and said, "A defeat is a defeat, there are no other reasons!" "Take me to see those two!" Ling Yu said.

"Alright, let's go!" Ignoring Xin Youdao to stop her, the girl in yellow turned and walked away, leading the way.

(There's more to come!)
