Battle Through the Heavens: Flame Emperor, Please Restrain Yourself—Your Brother Is Truly Quite Simple

Zhang Yuan nodded calmly and said, "Whatever you like."

"Xiao Zhan, you're not planning to interfere, are you?" Jia Lie Bi looked at Xiao Zhan and threatened, "If you make a move, I don't think Brother Ao Ba Pa would mind sparring with you."

Ao Ba Pa wore a genial smile and was about to speak in agreement with Jia Lie Bi.

But Xiao Zhan did not even glance at him. He simply stepped back and yielded the space to Zhang Yuan and Jia Lie Bi.

Not many people knew that Zhang Yuan had broken through to Da Dou Shi, but Xiao Yan had informed him in advance.

He also knew that Zhang Yuan had possessed the strength to kill a late-stage Da Dou Shi while still at the peak of Dou Shi, let alone now.

As long as it was not a fight to the death, he had no intention of stopping it.

The smile on Ao Ba Pa's face stiffened, and he could only say, "Brother Xiao is magnanimous."

"Heh." Jia Lie Bi sneered and raised a hand, signaling the Jia Lie family members to retreat.

"You still dare laugh? I'll make you cry soon enough."

Jia Lie Bi kicked off with both feet, and Dou Qi instantly covered his entire body, forming a bluish-green suit of armor.

Whoosh!

Without any warning, his figure transformed into a gale and arrived before Zhang Yuan in the blink of an eye.

Few people present could clearly see his movements. They only felt that after a blink, he had already appeared before Zhang Yuan and struck with his palm.

Green Dou Qi transformed into a raging wind, compressing the air around Zhang Yuan and restricting his movements.

This palm carried an intense tearing force, all of it concentrated in Jia Lie Bi's left hand, aimed directly at Zhang Yuan's head.

This was the Jia Lie family's strongest Dou Technique, the Mysterious Tier Mid-grade Gale Palm!

"Ah!"

Some of the weaker juniors of the Xiao Clan cried out in alarm.

No one had expected Jia Lie Bi to use his full strength from the outset and directly go for the kill.

They could practically see the image of Zhang Yuan's head being blown apart.

Kid, go repent for your arrogance underground. Jia Lie Bi laughed inwardly as he circulated his cultivation technique at full force and mobilized his Dou Crystal.

But in the next moment, his pupils suddenly contracted, and everyone heard the sound of a heavy hammer striking.

Zhang Yuan took a step back, causing Jia Lie Bi's palm aimed at his head to strike toward his chest instead.

At the same time, a silver-purple suit of Dou Qi Armor appeared over his entire body, forcefully enduring Jia Lie Bi's Dou Technique attack.

Zhang Yuan had no intention of concealing his true cultivation, because he would reveal it as soon as he returned to the army anyway. There was no need to pretend to be weak and play the tiger.

"Dou Qi Armor, Da Dou Shi!"

The Xiao Clan juniors cried out in shock, and their eyes immediately filled with admiration.

The smile on Xun Er's face deepened. She slightly lifted her chin, proud of the man she had chosen.

Master Gu Ni exclaimed in amazement. Although Ya Fei had been told beforehand, her heart still trembled when she saw it with her own eyes.

Zhang Yuan's figure imprinted itself upon her heart. It was as though she were witnessing the rise of an unparalleled powerhouse.

Ao Ba Pa wore a stunned expression, followed by intense killing intent flashing deep in his eyes. This boy cannot be allowed to live.

Jia Lie Bi was the most shocked of all. He had never expected his opponent to be a Da Dou Shi.

Although he was only one star, he was still in the same realm as him.

He could not underestimate him!

Jia Lie Bi's gaze sharpened as he focused with utmost seriousness.

But in the next instant, his pupils contracted again.

After forcefully enduring his attack, Zhang Yuan twisted to the side and kicked out.

Mysterious Tier Low-grade, Raging Thunder Strike!

Infused with Dou Qi, it could unleash lightning attacks through either the hands or feet. Its power depended on the user.

The thunderclap also carried a certain sonic attack effect.

Boom!

A thunderous roar erupted, causing Jia Lie Bi to lose focus for an instant. By the time he recovered, Zhang Yuan's foot, wrapped in purple lightning, had already reached the area before his Dantian.

"Condense!"

Jia Lie Bi immediately withdrew his attack, circulating his cultivation technique at full force and gathering Dou Qi before his Dantian, continuously reinforcing his Dou Qi Armor.

But when Zhang Yuan's kick landed, he still felt an overwhelming force strike him, nearly shattering his Dou Qi Armor.

"Puh!"

Jia Lie Bi violently spat out a mouthful of blood, but used the force to fly backward.

Before he could land, however, Zhang Yuan—seemingly bathed in lightning—was already chasing after him.

Yellow Tier High-grade movement Dou Technique, Divine Step Chasing Lightning.

If a Dou Shi mastered it perfectly, they could contend with a Da Dou Shi.

After mastering it perfectly, Zhang Yuan had secretly empowered himself with Two Dragon Thunder Gang Fire, allowing his speed to surpass a Mysterious Tier Low-grade movement Dou Technique and enabling him to kill low-level Da Dou Shi opponents.

Now, with the cultivation of a Da Dou Shi, he secretly empowered himself with Three Dragon Thunder Gang Fire, making him even faster.

Boom!

Zhang Yuan threw a punch, striking Jia Lie Bi's Dou Qi Armor on the right side of his chest and sending him flying in another direction.

Immediately afterward, he displayed his speed again and caught up. This time, he struck Jia Lie Bi's left chest.

Left arm, right arm!

Left leg, right leg!

Crack!

The Dou Qi Armor on Jia Lie Bi's body was shattered by Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuan caught up once more and threw another punch.

"Ah!"

The blow threw Jia Lie Bi's Dou Qi into disarray. He had no choice but to reinforce both hands with Dou Qi and forcibly block Zhang Yuan's Dou Technique, only to be sent flying again.

Zhang Yuan's eyes flickered. Without anyone noticing, he injected some Three Dragon Thunder Gang Fire through Jia Lie Bi's wounds.

Just as he was about to catch up and strike again, Jia Lie Qing, the Great Elder of the Jia Lie Family, appeared beside Jia Lie Bi and unleashed a move to clash head-on with Zhang Yuan. The powers of wind and lightning collided, erupting with immense might.

Jia Lie Qing caught Jia Lie Bi in his arms and rode the lingering shockwave backward into the midst of the Jia Lie Family members, watching the front warily.

Zhang Yuan flew back three zhang before landing lightly with nimble footwork. He casually flicked his sleeve and said indifferently, "What? After the little one got beaten, the big one came out? And after the big one got beaten, now the old one has come?"

"Pfft!" Jia Lie Bi spat out a mouthful of blood in fury.

Yet Zhang Yuan did not let him off, saying blandly, "Jia Lie Bi, didn't you say you would make ten moves against me? Why did you stop after just one? Even counting the six moves I used against you, that only makes seven in total."

"You!" Jia Lie Bi pointed at Zhang Yuan, spat out another mouthful of blood, and fainted.

"Boring." Zhang Yuan looked at Jia Lie Qing and asked, "Do you want to fight?"

Jia Lie Qing's face turned livid. Holding Jia Lie Bi, he said, "My Jia Lie Family admits inferiority. What happened last night is hereby written off. Farewell."

After saying that, he had two disciples carry Jia Lie Bi away and led his people directly out of the Xiao Clan.

Seeing this, Ao Ba Pa offered Xiao Zhan a sarcastic word of congratulations before leading his people away from the Xiao Clan as well.

"Cousin Zhang Yuan, long live!"

"Cousin Zhang Yuan is too strong!"

"My heavens, Cousin actually became a Da Dou Shi at sixteen!"

"He's not just a Da Dou Shi—he completely crushed the Jia Lie Family's clan head!"

"I think even the clan head might not be stronger than Cousin."

"I think Cousin is now the number one person in our Xiao Clan."

"."

The younger generation of the Xiao Clan erupted in cheers, which sounded unbearably harsh to the Jia Lie and Ao Ba Family members.

The Xiao Clan's guards, escorts, and some elite disciples did not shout and cheer, but they could not hide the smiles on their faces.

Who could have imagined that Zhang Yuan was not only a one-star Da Dou Shi, but could also beat Jia Lie Bi, a three-star Da Dou Shi, despite the difference in rank?

Their Xiao Clan was going to rise!
