Azure Dragon Sword Appears

The entire venue fell silent.

Everyone stared blankly at He Hong, helplessly swaying from the ceiling, then looked at Ye Tianxing standing on the arena with an utterly harmless expression. They truly did not know what to say.

Hu Liena fought back the urge to laugh and directly declared Ye Tianxing the winner.

That was too underhanded, too ruthless!

The corner of Bibi Dong's mouth twitched. She had nothing to say to Ye Tianxing.

She admitted that she had underestimated Ye Tianxing before, but even so, could he still win against Huyan Bo, who possessed two Spirit Rings at level twenty?

Most of the Elite Class students nearing graduation had only recently broken through level twenty. Reaching the Soul Grandmaster level at eight or nine years old was exceptional even on Douluo Continent.

Ye Tianxing stepped down from the arena and exchanged looks with Huyan Bo, who sat below. The blazing fighting intent in their eyes was impossible to conceal. The nearby students quickly moved aside to avoid getting caught up in it.

Several elders eventually pulled He Hong down. He had already fainted and seemed to have lost his ability to fight. Only Ye Tianxing and Huyan Bo remained for the next match.

Both went to rest and recover their Soul Power as quickly as possible.

Among the spectators, Huyan Zhen looked at Huyan Bo with satisfaction. He then beckoned him over and said with a smile, "Bo'er, our Elephant Armored Sect is determined to obtain this Spirit Bone. Don't disappoint your teacher!"

The Elephant Armored Sect was passed down through family lines. Men of the sect married ordinary women, giving their descendants a high chance of awakening the Diamond Mammoth Martial Soul. From the moment Huyan Bo awakened his Martial Soul at age six, with Innate Soul Power at rank nine, his future high status had already been foretold.

"Teacher, I heard Ye Tianxing is the disciple of Spirit Hall's Fifth Offering. Is that true?" Huyan Bo was worried that if he injured Ye Tianxing, it would be difficult for his teacher to explain himself.

Huyan Zhen burst out laughing and patted Huyan Bo's thick arm. "Don't worry. Even if Radiant Feather Douluo is the Fifth Offering of the Elder Hall, he won't do anything to our Elephant Armored Sect. We belong to His Holiness the Pope. This is a normal competition, not some wanton act of vengeance. Just hold back a little later. As long as you don't cripple Ye Tianxing, leave the rest to your teacher."

"Yes!" With Huyan Zhen's reassurance, Huyan Bo returned to the arena to prepare for the upcoming final.

Inside the VIP room.

Ye Tianxing arrived here and met the other five offerings besides his teacher. Aside from First Worship Qian Daoliu, the group led by Second Worship Golden Crocodile Douluo was all present.

"Ye Tianxing greets my martial uncles."

"Tianxing, no need for formalities. Rise."

"That arrow just now was pretty good! It had Old Five's style. As expected of the disciple he taught! Hahaha!"

"Exactly! Fifth Brother has always been the most childlike among us, and his disciple has surpassed him!"

As the group of friends and brothers laughed, Radiant Feather Douluo shook his head helplessly. Then he revealed his Martial Soul, which was also a bow. Frost dotted its body, and a chilling aura swept through the room, causing the temperature to plummet.

"Who wants to be turned into a human arrow? I can grant that wish!" Radiant Feather Douluo smiled brightly, but everyone wore strained smiles and hurriedly refused.

"Enough, business first." Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke, and everyone turned their attention to him.

"Tianxing, your opponent this time, Huyan Bo, is very strong. Not long ago, Huyan Zhen, the sect master of the Elephant Armored Sect, officially bestowed upon Huyan Bo the inherited head Spirit Bone of their sect. That is why he was able to break through to Soul Grandmaster. His Second Soul Skill is also a full-area attack, so you must be especially careful," Golden Crocodile Douluo said.

That wasn't right. Didn't Huyan Zhen have a grandson named Huyan Li? Shouldn't that inherited Spirit Bone have gone to Huyan Li? Why had it been given to Huyan Bo instead?

Could his arrival have caused the Butterfly Effect?

"Then he got the short end of the stick." Ye Tianxing felt no pressure at all.

"He got the short end of the stick?"

"Yes, he did. I once heard that Huyan Bo is Huyan Zhen's disciple, but he also has a grandson named Huyan Li. That is Huyan Zhen's true heir. I think Huyan Zhen did this to claim the Spirit Bone from this competition for himself, but unfortunately, the person he met is me!" Ye Tianxing clenched his right fist. He had long since told Radiant Feather Douluo about his Twin Martial Souls. Otherwise, Qian Daoliu would not have intervened in this matter.

The Skull of Wisdom was precisely the head Spirit Bone Tang San obtained after the spirit fighting tournament in the original story. It was sixty thousand years old, and its value was in no way inferior to that of a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone.

It condensed spiritual power. That was the effect of the Spirit Bone in Bibi Dong's possession.

It was also highly useful to Ye Tianxing. He was an archer, and no matter where he was, the first person enemies often targeted was the archer. Therefore, Ye Tianxing was determined to obtain this Spirit Bone.

"Tianxing, never let your guard down."

Golden Crocodile Douluo asked, "Can you tell us? Your teacher said you have a trump card. What exactly is it?"

Under the puzzled gazes of Golden Crocodile Douluo, Xiongshi, Qingluan Douluo, and the others, Ye Tianxing exchanged a smile with Radiant Feather Douluo.

"You'll find out soon enough."

The final of the Spirit Hall Academy Elite Class Competition had begun!

At the center of the arena, Ye Tianxing and Huyan Bo faced each other. Their eyes brimmed with fighting intent, and both possessed a maturity and steadiness beyond their age.

Ye Tianxing's maturity came from his previous life on Blue Star. Although he had physically crossed over, with his body now reduced in age, being in the unfamiliar world of Douluo Continent was little different from living another life.

Huyan Bo, meanwhile, was Huyan Zhen's disciple. As a future pillar of the sect, he had been raised from childhood for this purpose.

"Ye Tianxing, Withered Wood Bow, level thirteen power attack-type Battle Spirit Master," Ye Tianxing introduced himself.

Huyan Bo was slightly startled, then said, "Huyan Bo, level twenty-one power attack-type Battle Spirit Grandmaster."

A level twenty-one Soul Grandmaster, Huyan Bo.

Ye Tianxing clenched his left hand in the air, and the Withered Wood Bow appeared in his grasp. A Spirit Ring lit up beneath his feet.

Huyan Bo's body was enormous, his muscles bulging. Those who possessed the Diamond Mammoth Martial Soul were usually several times larger than ordinary people. Ye Tianxing was fully three times smaller than him. Curved tusks gleaming with crystalline light protruded from the corners of Huyan Bo's mouth, and every step he took shook the arena.

Two hundred-year Spirit Rings flashed, and the powerful pressure made it hard to breathe.

Hu Liena looked between the two sides and declared, "The final begins!"

"First Soul Skill, Guard."

Huyan Bo's entire body shone with an earthen-yellow light as his defense rapidly rose. He had begun by stacking his defenses, clearly having studied Ye Tianxing closely beforehand.

He intended to bulldoze Ye Tianxing off the arena.

Yet Ye Tianxing showed no fear at all. His First Spirit Ring lit up beneath his feet.

Whoosh!

The arrow tore through the air, and a violent wind rose.

But to Huyan Bo, that little commotion was all thunder and no rain.

The arrow struck Huyan Bo but caused no damage, leaving behind only a faint white mark.

Huyan Zhen, seated beside the arena, smiled knowingly at the sight. "It seems the Spirit Bone from this competition is mine for the taking. Li'er, your grandfather made a wise decis... Wait—what's that?!"

A streak of azure light appeared in Ye Tianxing's right hand, followed by an Azure Dragon Sword appearing before everyone.
