"But I refuse!"

As Xiao Yuan's figure fell, he reached out and suddenly grabbed the student who was about to strike Xiao Yu down. Black ice crystals landed on his body, sealing him in an ice coffin almost instantly.

The next moment, Xiao Yuan's figure floated out like a flying catkin, dodging Hu Jia and Wu Hao's pursuit, and at the same time, he kicked out with a Wind Eagle Leg.

Click!

With the support of terrifying physical strength, even this Yellow Rank High Level Dou Technique actually unleashed the power of Mysterious Rank Dou Techniques. After kicking the ice layer and cracking it, it also kicked the student inside, causing him to vomit blood, fly backward, and fall to the ground unconscious.

Wow, that's fast!

In the distance, Hu Jia and Wu Hao's attacks missed, and they were quite shocked as they watched Xiao Yuan retract his long kick.

That speed before was probably comparable to some Dou Ling experts!

Such speed, actually possessed by a Four-Star Dou Grandmaster? Looking at Xiao Yuan's aura, it remained remarkably long, clearly indicating he had a large reserve of Dou Qi! Could this guy be cultivating an Earth Rank Cultivation Method? The two were also shocked. They knew that many Dou Emperor- level experts might not even have a suitable Earth Rank Cultivation Method to cultivate, Xiao Yuan, at the Da Dou Shi level, already possessed such a technique—the advantage was unimaginable! But what truly alarmed them was Xiao Yuan's seemingly endless reserve of Dou Technique, honed to an astonishing degree!

It should be understood that even if an ordinary person possesses a great many Dou Technique, it is impossible for them to reach a very high level of proficiency in all of them. They will generally focus on honing one or two Dou Technique as their trump cards.

However, Xiao Yuan had already used no fewer than five different Dou Technique, and the level of proficiency in each one was terrifyingly high.

For an ordinary person, it is already extremely difficult to release Mysterious Rank Dou Techniques quickly, but Xiao Yuan did it as smoothly and naturally as if he were walking, using his Dou Technique with ease!

Just how much cultivation technique has Xiao Yuan devoted to training his Dou Technique? "Should we continue?"

After glancing at the battle between Xun'er and Xiao Yan, which was almost over, Xiao Yuan looked at Hu Jia and Wu Hao and asked casually.

However, before Hu Jia and Wu Hao could respond, Xiao Yan's aura suddenly became quite chaotic, and the space around him fluctuated rapidly. Strands of pure energy were pouring into his body in a surging manner. Judging from this, it was clearly the kind of movement that occurs when one advances to a higher level! This unexpected situation immediately made the scene somewhat delicate.

Xun'er rushed towards Xiao Yan immediately, shielding him behind her. Golden light flashed around her, pulsating like flames.

Her delicate face was now filled with seriousness, and golden Dou Qi condensed into two balls of golden light in her palms, like miniature suns.

"Smack!"

At this moment, Xiao Yuan casually snapped his fingers, and two more ice coffins appeared in the arena. However, Xiao Yan and Xiao Yu were frozen inside them.

"Xun'er, don't worry about Xiao Yan's safety. Just take care of them as soon as possible!"

Xiao Yuan's voice rang out calmly. After sensing the indestructible ice coffin, Xun'er breathed a sigh of relief, and then her gaze toward the four people in front of her became quite unfriendly.

Before Xiao Yuan could act, a bloody aura suddenly rushed towards him, and a blood-red figure flashed in front of him. Wu Hao waved his hands, creating a blood-red mist, and blasted towards Xiao Yuan.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Facing Wu Hao's direct attack, Xiao Yuan's face remained unchanged. His palm, shrouded in black ice mist, directly clashed with Wu Hao's in a head-on manner. Each time the two palms collided, a piercing energy explosion rang out.

After exchanging nearly ten blows, Xiao Yuan suddenly unleashed another Mystic Ice Palm, sending Wu Hao staggering back dozens of steps.

Just as Wu Hao retreated, a whip shadow descended from the sky with a thunderous sound. However, Xiao Yuan's hand, covered in icy energy, accurately caught the whip. Then, the black ice layer spread along the whip and, in an instant, reached Hu Jia's palm.

The biting cold made Hu Jia, who was protected by Dou Qi, shiver. Xiao Yuan had already seized the opportunity and appeared in front of Wu Hao in a flash. His body spun rapidly like a top, and in an instant, he condensed the Ice Blade Storm from before and attacked Wu Hao.

As the Mystic Ice Whirlwind Kill was released, Xiao Yuan's figure broke free from it. Then, he clenched his fist, and a small Ice Blade Storm condensed on his fist! Mystic Ice Whirlwind Fist!

Xiao Yuan threw a punch at Hu Jia without any mercy, and Hu Jia felt a chill run down her spine when she saw this.

Just how much Dou Qi does this guy have? How many times has he Mysterious Rank Dou Techniques? But she didn't dare to be careless at the moment, and quickly gathered energy to resist Xiao Yuan's powerful attack.

However, the Dou Technique she hastily condensed was only at the Xuan level, which was naturally slightly inferior to Xiao Yuan's. She was immediately blasted back by Xiao Yuan's punch, grunted, and blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

Wu Hao, who was not far away, was not faring well either. His robes were torn in many places, revealing wounds covered by black cold air. The dark red ice was shaken off by his Dou Qi and shattered on the ground.

"You're very strong!"

Wu Hao, feeling the pain and cold stinging sensation from his wounds, spoke expressionlessly.

Hu Jia also stared at Xiao Yuan with a serious expression.

The next moment, the two of them simultaneously unleashed a fierce aura, and their battle Dou Qi began to surge rapidly. Given Xiao Yuan's current combat power, if they continued to hold back, they would likely be defeated without a doubt soon! As soon as the thought was made up, deep green and blood-red Dou Qi began to surge out from Hu Jia and Wu Hao's bodies. Fierce offensive Dou Technique were rapidly brewing on their whip and heavy sword. After their previous defeat, they were now desperately fighting back!

"The Darkwood Poison Serpent Vine!"

Blood Cleaving Slash!

In the arena, Hu Jia and Wu Hao finally brought their powerful Dou Technique to their limit. Their weapons shook violently, and instantly, two fierce and incomparable energies, one green and one red, shot out. Wherever the energy passed, the hard floor cracked, and eye-catching cracks spread all the way to the edge of the square before stopping.

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan finally became interested and smiled slightly as he looked at the two sharp attacks in front of him.

The two Profound Rank High Level Dou Technique seemed quite powerful, but unfortunately, the two individuals were not strong enough, so the effect they achieved was only mediocre and did not reach an amazing level.

"Mystic Ice Dragon Soar!"

As he silently shouted, Xiao Yuan swiftly formed hand seals. Just a second before the two fierce energies were about to strike Xiao Yuan, a jet-black ice dragon roared out. At the same time, a profound and mysterious feeling surged into his heart, and Xiao Yuan couldn't help but open his mouth and let out a strange roar. It sounded somewhat similar to the roar of the ice dragon, but with a more vivid quality! Under the influence of this roar, Hu Jia and Wu Hao inevitably felt a wave of dizziness.

Just then, two streams of energy, one green and one red, finally collided with the ice dragon.

"Boom!"

In the instant of the collision, the three energies were silent for a moment, and then a deafening explosion resounded!

Immediately afterwards, thick dust rose from the square, and the entire square was completely reduced to ruins at that moment!

Looking at the square, which had almost turned into ruins, the stands were also silent as death!

But soon, the dust settled, revealing Xiao Yuan standing with his robes fluttering and his hands behind his back, the Mystic Ice Giant Dragon coiled around him. In the distance, Wu Hao and Hu Jia lay in the ruins, their breaths weak, clearly indicating that they were seriously injured.

"Hiss!"

Upon seeing this scene, everyone present couldn't help but gasp.

Under such a terrifying exchange of blows, Xiao Yuan actually achieved a complete victory?

In another direction, golden light shone, and Xun'er's figure gradually became clear. Beside her lay the three defeated students.

Click!

The ice shattered, and an aura of a Six-Star Dou Grandmaster erupted from it. Clearly, with the end of the battle, Xiao Yan's breakthrough was also successful.

Looking at the four members of the Xiao Clan standing in the arena, Vice Dean Hu Qian had a complicated expression.

His rule change actually gave these four Xiao Clan students a huge advantage! As for Hu Jia and Wu Hao... well, let's just assume they're tied for fifth place. The academy isn't short of a little reward!

Because of the explosion, many people couldn't see what happened clearly, but Hu Jia and Wu Hao, who were lying on the ground, knew clearly that Xiao Yuan's move was something even Dou Ling expert wouldn't dare say they could easily withstand. Such heaven-defying combat power was truly terrifying! Xiao Yuan's powerful attack almost made them forget that Xiao Yuan was currently at the level of Four-Star Dou Grandmaster! This result was unexpected by everyone. On the stands, Mentor Ruo Lin watched this scene and slowly covered her slightly parted red lips with her hand.

This little guy actually did it!

Four of the top five spots were taken by their own students! On the judges' panel, the judges looked at each other in bewilderment and then turned to look at Hu Qian.

If Hu Jia hadn't been there, they wouldn't have been so worried. But unfortunately, that Little Demoness was among them, and she was being beaten particularly badly. In all their years at the Jia Nan Academy, to be honest, this was the first time they had ever seen anyone dare to beat Hu Jia so mercilessly.

It wasn't just because of the latter's background, but also because Hu Jia herself was an extremely beautiful girl. Although her personality was as unpredictable as a whimsical dream, her angelic face and devilish figure made her quite popular in the academy. When fighting against such a girl, many people in the academy would back down even if they could win. It was rare to see someone as domineering and merciless as Xiao Yuan, who showed no restraint whatsoever.

However, it's not entirely incomprehensible. After all, in terms of looks, Hu Jia is indeed no match for Xiao Yuan, but they rarely see a student who shows such a lack of chivalry towards women.

"Why are you looking at me? He won by his own skill. A dozen people ganged up on one person and were still killed. Who can he blame?"

Seeing this, Hu Qian rolled his eyes helplessly and said.

"Then, the top five."

Seeing this, a younger referee cautiously asked.

"Let's put them on equal footing."

Hu Qian waved his hand and sighed.

Upon hearing this, the referees exchanged glances and nodded. Then, an older referee stood up, surveyed the square, and loudly announced:

"This year's Inner Academy Selection Tournament has come to an end. After fierce battles, the top five have been determined: Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yan, Xiao Xun'er, Xiao Yu, and Wu Hao and Hu Jia are tied for fifth place!"

As soon as his voice fell, a deafening roar of cheers erupted across the square. The entire square trembled in the overwhelming sound, and countless people rose from the stands to look at the four figures amidst the rubble and ruins, their eyes filled with envy and awe.

Especially Xiao Yuan, dressed in flowing white robes and surrounded by a giant dragon, attracted the admiring glances of many female students. His perfect looks and powerful strength, along with his spotless white robes, made him their dream lover and ideal husband! And all of this was based on strength and power. In this academy where strength is paramount, only this is the most convincing principle! Xiao Yu, who walked over from the side, reached out and took Xiao Yuan's arm, a happy and proud smile on her face.

They easily secured fourth place!

Having a good boyfriend is so great!

Amidst the resounding cheers and applause, in the center of the ruins, Hu Jia and Wu Hao leaned against the stone wall, their slightly twitching faces revealing the intense pain emanating from their bodies. Xiao Yuan's earlier attack had completely rendered them incapable of fighting. Fortunately, Xiao Yuan had actually held back, and they would recover in just three to five days at most!

"That bastard, he hit so hard, he's not a man!" Hu Jia bit her red lips tightly, her originally bright and cunning eyes now showing a hint of grievance and moisture. In all these years, this was the first time she had been thwarted by a man, and this man was almost the same age as her, which made it hard for her proud heart to accept.

The worst part is that this man is even more handsome than him! That's just outrageous! "He's too strong, but I think I can surpass him!" Wu Hao coughed violently, clutching his chest. A flush rose on his pale face, and his eyes were filled with fervor. The setbacks he had suffered earlier had not made him dejected. On the contrary, Xiao Yuan's strength had ignited his fighting spirit. This resilience was almost an accelerator for becoming a strongman!

"Those two good-for-nothings!"

In a corner of the stands, Bai Shan's face was gloomy, a hint of resentment flashed in his eyes, and his fists were clenched. He was already furious at being easily defeated by Xiao Yuan, and now seeing that Hu Jia and Wu Hao, even when they joined forces, could not do anything to Xiao Yuan, and that Xiao Yuan had even gained popularity, made him even more angry!

Over the past two years, he has been propelled to the top of the most prominent figures in the Outer Academy by countless flattering voices. But today, this so-called prominent figure title has been shattered by Xiao Yuan's casual actions.

In the future, when people mention Bai Shan at the Jia Nan Academy, they will no longer do so with the same awe and reverence as before. Because, above him, there will always be someone who is more handsome and stronger than him, who also wears white, and is the one who truly inspires awe and reverence. For Bai Shan, who is exceptionally proud, this situation is undoubtedly more painful than losing his life.
