Chaotic Battle

Li Wei scanned the surroundings, her right hand forming a finger sword and her left hanging naturally at her side. She then pouted slightly…

"Sip, sip, sip~"

Huang Lei: "..."

Everyone else: "..."

The scene fell silent for a moment.

"How dare you!"

The short, stout middle-aged man was the first to react, letting out a furious roar. His fists, engulfed in thick, blood-red light, shot straight towards Li Wei's face!

The instant he moved, from his right, the muscular old man descended like a fierce tiger, his palm as large as a fan carrying a wind that tore through the air, reaching for Li Wei's shoulder.

From the rear left, the unremarkable middle-aged woman suddenly crouched low, like a snake slithering close to the ground. Her five fingers formed claws, targeting Li Wei's ankle.

The sharp-tempered young man moved silently behind Li Wei, his fist clenched, taut like an arrow loosed from a bow, aiming directly for her back's vital point!

Four people, four directions. Their coordinated attack was surprisingly seamless, blocking almost all of her escape routes.

At least, that's what they thought.

The short, stout middle-aged man's tactical thinking of "strong fighters engage, weak ones harass" was correct, but he completely underestimated Li Wei's speed.

In martial arts, nothing is indestructible, only speed is unbeatable!

Li Wei's smooth toes lightly tapped the ground, and her entire body vanished. Only a blurry afterimage remained where she stood, flickering slightly before dissipating.

All four attacks missed simultaneously!

Among them, the short, stout middle-aged man and the sharp young man's fists nearly collided. They narrowly avoided each other at the risk of twisting their wrists, their movements becoming somewhat clumsy.

"Such fast footwork!" the middle-aged woman exclaimed, her voice filled with surprise.

She was the strongest among the four.

When observing earlier, she had only thought the girl's speed was outrageously fast. Now, experiencing it firsthand, the pressure had increased exponentially, and she was already having second thoughts about retreating.

"Surround her!" The short, stout man stabilized himself. Seeing his companions momentarily distracted, he shouted urgently.

Unfortunately, it was too late.

The moment she broke free from the encirclement, Li Wei, like an unrestrained fish, plunged into the group of restless First and Second-Order Martial Artists on the periphery!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Her finger sword flickered, her attacks like a torrential downpour.

She didn't even look at who she was attacking, relying entirely on combat instinct. Vitality surged to her fingertips, and she struck at any opening!

To maximize efficiency, she even abandoned the "Cold Pond Sinking Jade" technique that suppressed sound.

Her fingertips broke through the air, creating sharp whistling sounds.

Wherever she went, people were sent flying!

"Ah!"

"My hand!"

"Ugh..."

Screams, groans, and the crisp sound of bones dislocating echoed through the entire waiting area in an instant!

Those First and Second-Order Martial Artists couldn't react at all.

In their field of vision, it was often just a white blur flashing past, followed by intense pain or numbness in some part of their body, instantly rendering them incapable of resistance.

Li Wei's bare, snow-white feet trod on the cold, hard floor, her speed so great that only fleeting white streaks remained.

Occasionally, she would stop, her finger sword making precise strikes, her skirt swirling open like a blooming white lotus.

The four Third-Order Martial Artists chasing behind her were roaring in anger.

"Get out of the way! Damn it, get out of the way!" The short, stout man shoved aside several obstructing First-Order Martial Artists, yelling hoarsely.

The muscular old man was also anxious.

He suddenly leaped up, flipped, and stomped heavily on the ceiling panel, more than four meters high. Using the rebound force, he descended like a meteorite towards Li Wei's likely position!

BOOM—!

With a deafening roar, the solid floor was smashed into a spiderweb-like crater, and shattered floor tiles flew in all directions.

However, the landing spot was empty. The flying debris instead struck several unfortunate First-Order Martial Artists nearby.

Fortunately, Martial Artists had tough bodies; otherwise, several would have been incapacitated by this impact.

On the other side, the young man tried to blend into the crowd, intercepting Li Wei based on prediction.

But Li Wei's footwork was too elusive. She would often make sharp, unexpected turns while moving at high speed, causing him to miss his ambushes several times.

As for the middle-aged woman, she merely circled the periphery, not exerting herself much at all.

In just twenty to thirty seconds, nearly a third of the more than two hundred people had fallen!

Cries of agony rose one after another, and the scene descended into utter chaos.

The stout, short man's lungs felt like they were about to explode. He yelled at the top of his lungs, "Get down, everyone! Get down for me!"

As a result, no one listened to him...

The crowd continued to scatter like headless flies, bumping into each other and blocking the way.

Li Wei, meanwhile, took advantage of the chaos to efficiently "clear out" her opponents.

Can't find the book title? You can try searching for the author, maybe they just changed their name!

At the same time, she also noticed the rapid depletion of Vitality within her body.

With a thought, her status panel appeared.

[Vitality (Special Effect: Purify): 48.7/500.3]

"I'm running out!"

Without hesitation, she immediately mobilized four points of Abyss Essence.

An incredibly pure energy instantly surged into her limbs and bones. Her depleted acupoints were immediately filled, and her entire being felt invigorated.

"Keep going!"

Her speed didn't slow down at all. In fact, with her Vitality restored, her attacks became even more swift and sharp!

Chiff, chiff, chiff—

Another wave of people was knocked down.

At the entrance to the waiting area.

Besides Huang Lei and the group he brought, a large, dark crowd had gathered to watch the spectacle, their presence unnoticed until now.

Everyone was so stunned by the scene in the arena that they couldn't speak.

"Hiss— Who is that woman? She's so fierce! Fighting hundreds of people by herself?"

"Is that for real? Am I dreaming?"

"Holy crap! That movement technique! That finger technique! It's absolutely outrageous!"

"Didn't they say private fights are forbidden inside the building? With all this fighting, why isn't anyone stopping it?"

"Shhh— Keep your voice down! Don't you see Commander Huang standing there? The big shots haven't said anything, so we should just watch the show!"

The sounds of discussion, gasps, and the clicking of many people taking photos with their phones blended into a cacophony.

Huang Lei still had one hand in his pocket, holding Li Wei's pair of small, white high heels in the other. He remained oblivious to the surrounding commotion and didn't stop anyone from watching or filming.

In a corner of the crowd, Lu Feifei stared intently at the white figure in the arena, her temples throbbing painfully.

Two minutes later.

The battle began to subside.

Of the originally dense crowd of examinees, nine out of ten were now lying on the ground, groaning or unconscious.

The only ones still standing, besides the four Third-order Martial Artists with ashen faces, were the dozen or so "lucky ones" who had been hiding at the very edge since the beginning.

Li Wei finally stopped.

She stood amidst the mess, drenched in sweat, her chest heaving with rapid breaths.

A pure, ethereal fragrance emanated from her, blanketing a small area around her.

Although extremely fatigued, her eyes remained bright, her fighting spirit undimmed.

[Consumed 8 points of Essence, Vitality remaining: 91... That's okay.]
[The remaining Third-order fighters feel much weaker than Gu Jinzhi.]
[However, if I continue to use my fingers as swords, it might be too much.]

Thinking this, Li Wei subconsciously touched the belt at her waist with her right hand, her consciousness focused on the panel, preparing to recover her energy.

At this moment, the four Third-order Martial Artists regrouped. Looking at the "bodies" littering the ground, and then at Li Wei, whose aura was chaotic but who was completely unharmed, they felt a chill creep up from the bottom of their hearts.

What kind of monster is this young girl?!

Huang Lei's eyes were also filled with astonishment.

The Jiang Family's "Nine Moon Reflection Swords," first style, "Cold Pond Sinking Wall," was indeed known for its low consumption and effectiveness in group combat.

But that was with a sword!

She was using her fingers as swords, without the aid of divine weapons. To break through the defenses of Martial Artists of the same tier solely with her own Vitality, could the consumption be the same?

Where did a young girl who looked at most like a Second Order Sinew Bone Realm cultivator get such monstrous stamina?

No! Stamina...

She might not even be Second Order!

A flash of inspiration struck Huang Lei.

If she broke through to First-Order Martial Artist with Great Perfection in Blood Nourishing, her Vitality intensity at First Order would rival a Second-Order!

Her recovery speed would be no less than a Third-Order!

Just like Shen Yaochi back in the day...

Great Perfection...

Thinking of this possibility, Huang Lei's expression instantly turned serious.

He abruptly raised his hand, his voice no longer calm, carrying an unquestionable authority.

"That's enough! Clear the area!"

Li Wei, who was just reaching a critical moment: "..."
