Qiu Changfeng felt uneasy, wondering where the young master had gone. Had Ning Rong really gotten a hold of him?

Still, it was good that he hadn't returned. Qiu Changfeng had been secretly observing Ning Rong these past few days and noticed her state was very unusual. She had been asking people to search for Xiang Tian's whereabouts, likely still unwilling to give up.

On the vast training ground, only Sinan Yao stood alone. Under the scorching sun, sunlight streamed down, bathing him in a glow that made the young girls below's eyes sparkle.

"Is this Xiang Tian afraid to come? It's been all morning, and the sun has made me foolish."

"I bet he is. He dared to provoke Ding Yang, but he might not dare to provoke Sinan Yao."

"All of you, shut your mouths. You can't afford to offend either of them."

Discussions began to erupt below, with many anticipating Xiang Tian's appearance. After all, spectators never minded a bit of drama.

As it was already noon, Sinan Yao frowned. Could it be that this guy really wasn't going to show up? He had arrived early in the morning and had been standing here all morning!

From a distance, Ning Rong, who had been secretly observing, curled her lips in disdain. "So that's all you've got. You dare to act but not take responsibility."

Meanwhile, Xiang Tian had slept until the sun was high in the sky. Seeing that he hadn't come out, Meng Wei didn't dare to knock and could only wait.

After waking up, he simply washed up and tidied himself. He just greeted Meng Wei and left.

Unlike his arrival, this time Xiang Tian directly sat at the entrance of the Changning Immortal Academy station. Less than a hundred meters away was the magnificent school gate.

As soon as Xiang Tian got off the carriage, the students on duty at the gate widened their eyes.

"Good heavens, Xiang Tian really came back."

"Holy crap, I'm on duty. No, I have to immediately message my brothers and tell them to turn on the projection. I can't miss this fight."

Xiang Tian greeted the few people with a smile and headed straight for the training ground.

"Holy crap, Xiang Tian's here!"

The training ground was packed with people. Someone shouted, and the crowd instantly exploded, looking around.

Xiang Tian leaped directly onto the training ground, his long robes fluttering elegantly. It had to be said that if not for the terrifying impression he had previously made on his classmates, he wouldn't have lacked admirers. After all, Xiang Tian never thought he was unattractive.

He looked at Sinan Yao and smiled slightly. "Sorry, I overslept."

His words almost made Sinan Yao explode with anger.

I spent all night preparing yesterday, thinking of countless ways to defeat and humiliate you. You show up today and tell me you overslept? Who are you looking down on!

"If there's nothing else, shall we begin?"

Xiang Tian said it so casually that Sinan Yao's face turned black. Wasn't this too much of an insult?

"Fine, prepare to be a dead dog!"

As soon as Sinan Yao finished speaking, a phantom image of a green dragon appeared behind him without any warning, opening its massive maw and lunging at Xiang Tian.

The momentum was so great that it caused gasps of astonishment.

He was already in the Deity Transformation Realm, and his control over his spiritual power was so meticulous that the entire sequence was seamless and fluid.

Xiang Tian simply smiled, formed a sword finger, and a majestic sword energy shot up into the sky. With a single downward slash, he split the green dragon in half, completely neutralizing its power.

From afar, Qiu Changfeng, who had been surprised by Xiang Tian's return and had been observing, nodded. Very good. It seemed Xiang Tian had almost fully comprehended the sword intent of the Sword Insight Stone. Using his finger as a sword was fierce and domineering.

The surrounding students exclaimed in admiration. Xiang Tian's technique was truly enviable. It was so cool!

I'm a swordsman, but I don't use a sword. Heh, I just use my fingers. How intimidating is that!

"You really refined the sword intent!"

Sinan Yao was furious. This thing, under normal circumstances, should have belonged to him!

Xiang Tian smiled faintly, not answering him, and charged forward, striking at him with his bare fists.

There was no fighting passion in the clash of spells and divine abilities. Xiang Tian preferred direct, hard-hitting confrontations.

Sinan Yao retaliated, and the two were locked in a fierce struggle. They exchanged blows, their fists and feet colliding like metal, making booming sounds and kicking up clouds of dust.

In the shadows, Ning Rong, who had been intently watching the battle, narrowed her eyes. "You escaped last time. This time, I absolutely won't let you get away."

On the training ground, the two separated after exchanging punches, both slightly sweaty. Sinan Yao frowned, looked at his fists, which were slightly red, and his legs felt like they were filled with lead, aching.

This guy looked delicate and fair-skinned, but his physique was like that of a steel behemoth. This puzzled him.

Xiang Tian stared at Sinan Yao, his lips curving upward slightly. He was starting to feel it – the desire for battle was gradually rising.

"Don't stop. Once you stop, it'll be hard to pick it up again."

With that, Xiang Tian charged again.

Sinan Yao sneered and calmly took out a red controller, tapping it lightly.

Instantly, Xiang Tian, who had rushed in front of him, was sent flying by a surge of red waves. His entire body felt like it had collided with steel, causing him some pain. After stabilizing himself, he saw that Sinan Yao had summoned a set of red Divine Armor, which floated quietly beside him.

"Rainbow Piercing the Sun, Scorching Blazing Sun!"

As a system voice announced, Xiang Tian couldn't help but let out a chuckle amidst the serious battle scene.

He said to Sinan Yao, "I say, young master, next time you summon Divine Armor, please turn off this system voice. It's quite embarrassing."

As soon as he said that, many people below couldn't help but laugh along.

Sinan Yao's face darkened further. He looked at Xiang Tian with a hint of anger in his eyes and suddenly struck the Divine Armor floating beside him. The Divine Armor rapidly disintegrated and covered his body.

He had absolute confidence in his Divine Armor; it was his ultimate trump card, with combat power far exceeding the Deity Transformation Realm.

He had heard that Xiang Tian had once crushed Ding Yang's Life Immortal Sword with his bare hands, so he naturally wouldn't dare to be careless.

Fully armed, Sinan Yao said to Xiang Tian, "You should also use your trump card moves. I've been waiting for you all morning and don't want to waste any more time."

Xiang Tian rubbed his arms and legs, looking at the Divine Armor that exuded a ferocious aura all over his body, and chuckled.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, he slowly raised his hand, and a silver-white controller appeared in his palm.

"You!"

Sinan Yao, clad in the Divine Armor, was shocked. This item was clearly the controller for another set of Divine Armor, though he couldn't tell its level.

Moreover, how could Xiang Tian possess Divine Armor? Weren't these things always controlled by their Riyao faction?

"My goodness, is that a Divine Armor controller?"

Below the stage, someone's jaw had already dropped in disbelief, letting out an astonished cry.

From the shadows, Ning Rong's eyes widened. Could this Xiang Tian also be from Riyao? What was the meaning of Changning Immortal King's actions?

Looking at Sinan Yao, Xiang Tian smiled slightly, "I'm very sorry, but I also have the trump card treasure you thought was yours alone!"

With that, he activated it.

Silver Divine Armor quickly covered his body. On the stage, one silver and one red stood in opposition, creating an unprecedented scene.
