Terrifyingly Strong!

"Lingling, what... what are you doing?"

"..."

Ye Lingling's large eyes curved into two crescent moons. Although her expression was hidden behind her veil, her voice carried a rare hint of teasing.

"Nothing, I just think... even if Qin Feng has a sharp tongue, some of the things he said aren't necessarily wrong."

"However, he does deserve a lesson, and it's only right that you get to vent your anger."

"..."

Dugu Yan was left dazed by this sudden ambush, her cheeks flushing red as she shot a reproachful glare at Ye Lingling.

"You've been brainwashed by that scoundrel too!"

The two exchanged a knowing look before simultaneously turning their gazes toward the arena.

There, the battle was on the verge of breaking out.

On the arena stage.

Qin Feng stood still, yet he felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand up.

He rubbed his nose, feeling somewhat bewildered.

Just a moment ago, he clearly felt two incredibly complex gazes land on him.

One came from Dugu Yan; it was filled with killing intent and shame, as if she wanted to swallow him whole.

The other came from Ye Lingling.

That look... how to put it?

It held a sense of curiosity as if she wanted to see right through him, yet it was also tinged with shyness, and perhaps even a little... anticipation?

Did these two girls take the wrong medicine today?

Qin Feng muttered to himself, but he quickly gathered his focus.

Opposite him, Yu Tianheng had already made his move.

"Qin Feng, since Yan-yan told me not to hold back, you had better pray for your own luck."

Yu Tianheng let out a cold shout and suddenly spread his arms wide.

BOOM!

An incomparably violent aura of thunder erupted from his body.

Blue-purple electric arcs danced wildly around him, emitting crackling, explosive sounds.

His right arm expanded rapidly, shattering his sleeve as it became covered in a layer of fine, blue-purple dragon scales, his hand transforming into a ferocious dragon claw.

Two yellow and one purple soul rings rose slowly beneath his feet, pulsing with a heart-stopping radiance.

Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon martial soul!

The pressure of a top-tier assault-type beast martial soul was revealed in its entirety at this moment.

"Is this the power of a thirty-ninth-level Soul Elder?"

The students off-stage gasped in unison, looking at Qin Feng as if he were a dead man.

Facing Yu Tianheng in his prime, let alone lasting for the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, he probably couldn't even withstand a single move, right?

However, Qin Feng, standing at the center of the storm, showed no signs of panic on his face.

He simply watched the aggressive Yu Tianheng, the mocking curve of his lips gradually widening.

"Is this your pride?"

"Just a giant lizard covered in electricity, and you dare call yourself a dragon?"

Before the words had even faded, Qin Feng took a sudden step forward.

THUD!

The entire arena seemed to tremble with that single footfall.

A terrifying aura suddenly spewed forth from his body.

A cyan lotus quietly bloomed behind him.

The lotus was chaotic in color, with thirty-six petals, each one flowing with profound, mystical patterns of the Great Dao.

The moment it appeared, the surrounding violent thunder seemed to encounter its natural predator, instantly wilting away.

Even the phantom of the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon that Yu Tianheng took such pride in trembled before this aura, letting out a mournful wail.

All members of the Heaven Dou Royal Team were frozen in place, their eyes locked firmly onto the arena.

Yu Tianheng's figure surged forward, the blue-purple dragon scales on his right arm glowing brilliantly as his already thick arm expanded once more.

His first soul ring flashed.

"Thunder Dragon Claw!"

With a fierce shout, a massive dragon claw formed entirely of violent lightning whistled through the air, heading straight for Qin Feng's face.

The might contained within that lightning was enough to make any Soul Elder of the same rank tremble with fear.

However, facing this heavy and powerful strike, Qin Feng did not release his Martial Soul Avatar, nor did he even light up a single soul ring beneath his feet.

He simply reached out his right hand in a casual manner.

With five fingers spread and his palm facing outward, he made no flashy movements, as if he were merely trying to catch a tossed hydrangea ball.

Dugu Yan, standing on the sidelines, felt her heart skip a beat.

Is this bastard crazy?

Although she had seen those wild and arrogant ravings in Qin Feng's diary and knew that since he dared to accept the assessment, he must have his own trump cards.

But that was the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon!

The number one beast martial soul on the continent, known for its tyrannical attack power, especially since that thunderous force carried a strong paralyzing effect; soul masters of the same rank would never dare to catch it with their bare bodies.

Ye Lingling's large eyes, hidden behind her veil, were also filled with worry.

Although the two of them felt ashamed and annoyed by the off-color fantasies in Qin Feng's diary and wished he would suffer a little on stage.

That was based on the premise of "teaching him a lesson," not watching him go to his death or end up severely injured and crippled.

"This arrogant fool, does he really think his body is made of iron?"

Dugu Yan couldn't help but curse under her breath, though sweat had unconsciously begun to seep from her palms.

On the arena stage.

Seeing Qin Feng's actions, the anger in Yu Tianheng's eyes grew even more intense.

"Bare-handed, trying to catch my Thunder Dragon Claw without using soul skills?"

This was contempt!

It was a trampling of the dignity of the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon family!

"Since you are seeking your own death, don't blame me!"

Yu Tianheng no longer held anything back; his soul power surged wildly, and the might of the Thunder Dragon Claw instantly climbed a few notches, slamming fiercely toward Qin Feng's palm.

Just as everyone thought Qin Feng's arm would be reduced to charcoal in the next second.

Snap.

A dull sound of impact rang out.

There was no expected scream, nor was there a scene of flesh and blood flying everywhere.

That seemingly ordinary palm had steadily clamped onto the lightning-wreathed dragon claw.

The violent electric current raged madly the moment it made contact, trying to burrow into Qin Feng's body to completely destroy his meridians and flesh.

But Qin Feng's palm was like a towering primordial mountain; no matter how the lightning bombarded it, it remained completely motionless.

A faint bronze luster flowed across the surface of his skin, isolating all the thunderous power entirely.

"How is this possible?!"

Yu Tianheng's pupils contracted violently.

He felt as if his hand wasn't gripped by a human hand, but locked tight by a pair of iron pliers.

What shocked him even more was the power transmitted from the opponent's palm.

Vast, heavy, and tyrannical!

It was impossible to shake!

"Is that all the strength you have?"

Qin Feng looked at Yu Tianheng, who was inches away, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

The next moment, his arm gave a sudden jolt.

BOOM!

A massive, irresistible force surged through Yu Tianheng's arm and into his body.

In the face of this power, the physique of the Blue Lightning Overlord Dragon that Yu Tianheng took such pride in was like a joke.

His body instantly lost its balance.

Qin Feng swung his arm in a wide arc, as if tossing a rag sack, directly lifting Yu Tianheng into the air before slamming him heavily into the ground.
