Explosive Tear-Apart!

As Xiao Dongchen looked at the graceful woman standing not far away with a bamboo flute in hand, he could not help but curl his lips, a trace of surprise flashing through his eyes.

That look was pretty unique!

She was practically possessed by Huai Zhu. He almost could not bear to make a move!

"Are you going to use a weapon?"

Ruo Lin held the bamboo flute and smiled gently.

"No need. One fist is all I need!"

Xiao Dongchen lightly clenched his fist, a smile slowly curling across his lips.

"Then, let's begin."

Taking a deep breath, Ruo Lin's expression became serious.

"Please."

Xiao Dongchen spread a hand with gentlemanly grace, one hand behind his back and no pressure visible on his face.

"Do you think he really became a Dou Ling at such a young age?"

Xue Ni seemed not to have recovered from her shock yet. She glanced at the godlike youth, her eyes flickering.

"Brother Chen's strength is beyond your comprehension. Just watch carefully."

With his arms folded, Xiao Yan stood calmly to one side, though a hint of eagerness flashed through his eyes.

To be honest, he had wanted to exchange a few moves with Instructor Ruo Lin too, but she had beaten him to it.

This kind of crushingly one-sided spar was truly dull.

The discussions outside the arena did not disturb the two opponents. Ruo Lin tapped her toes and retreated two steps, bringing the flute to her lips. A melodious, winding tune began to flow from it.

"Xuan Rank Low-Level Dou Technique—Water Wave: Water Dragon Bullet!"

As water Dou Qi surged and intensified, a huge sphere of water condensed out of thin air before Ruo Lin. Then, the water ball took shape, and an enormous water dragon roared out from within, howling as it flew furiously forward.

The water dragon swept across the bluestone floor, leaving behind a straight trail of water.

Watching the water dragon rush at him in the blink of an eye, Xiao Dongchen remained utterly calm. A streak of golden light quietly emerged in his eyes.

"Mysterious Sect of Heaven and Earth, the root of all Qi!"

"Cultivate through countless calamities, attain my divine power—Golden Light Mantra!"

The water dragon raised its head and dove down, carrying immense wind pressure as it swiftly reached Xiao Dongchen. It crashed fiercely into him. In an instant, the ground trembled slightly and water sprayed high into the air.

Looking at the area shrouded by the curtain of water, confusion appeared on Ruo Lin's gentle face. Why had this little fellow not even tried to dodge? Was he taking her attack head-on? Or was his Dou Ling strength fake?

However, just as her gaze flickered, a tall figure radiating golden light slowly walked out of the water mist. He finally stopped with a smile, and upon closer inspection, not even the corner of his clothes was wet!

"Instructor Ruo Lin, you need to try harder. This Dou Technique feels rather mediocre to me."

Xiao Dongchen grinned faintly, looking exceedingly mocking.

"This little fellow truly has some skill. Next, your instructor will get serious!"

Her gaze becoming increasingly solemn, Ruo Lin's rosy lips curved slightly. Then, her slender hand rapidly tapped the bamboo flute. The flute music abruptly changed, becoming sharp, urgent, and piercing.

"Xuan Rank Mid-Level Dou Technique—Extreme Break: Ten-Direction Water Arrows!"

At once, water Dou Qi surged. One water arrow after another rapidly condensed in the sky, densely packed together. In the blink of an eye, there were no fewer than a hundred.

The tip of every water arrow carried intense water Dou Qi. They looked capable of piercing gold and shattering stone!

"Let's see how you take this!"

Accompanied by a shrill flute note, Ruo Lin waved her delicate hand. The water arrows, condensed to their limit, seemed pushed by an invisible force as they tore through the air at extreme speed, raining down on Xiao Dongchen like a torrential storm.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The long arrows tore through the air with unstoppable force!

Faced with this all-encompassing assault, Xiao Dongchen merely curled his lips and chose to confront it head-on.

He flicked his sleeve, stood with his hands behind his back, and smiled at the heavens. The golden light surrounding his body suddenly blazed brightly.

Let the storm rage even harder!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sharp arrows containing water-attributed Dou Qi struck directly against the golden light, producing the sound of metal clashing and splashing up clouds of water mist. Yet even so, that thin layer of golden light stood as immovable as a mountain!

Watching the golden youth bathed in the rain of arrows, the students observing from outside the arena all looked at him in disbelief. They had not expected Xiao Dongchen's promise to give her three moves to mean standing there and forcibly enduring Instructor Ruo Lin's three full-power attacks!

Helplessness!

Before such a heaven-defying youth, that feeling was deeply carved into their hearts and impossible to erase.

Seeing the terror of that golden defense, surprise flashed through Ruo Lin's eyes. Her willow brows furrowed slightly as her delicate hand tightened around the Blue Sea Tide-Rising Flute. Surging water energy filled it, and she gently closed her eyes, carefully sensing the fluctuations of water Dou Qi.

"Little fellow, big sister is about to use her strongest attack. Are you ready?"

As she slowly opened her eyes, Ruo Lin's aura climbed to its peak in that instant!

"Bring it on!"

Faced with her warning, Xiao Dongchen merely smiled faintly. Then he extended a hand and crooked a finger provocatively at her.

"Good!"

Ruo Lin parted her lips slightly and continued playing the bamboo flute. With light taps of her slender hand, the flute music gradually became low and deep, as though undercurrents were surging within it.

"Xuan Rank High-Level Dou Technique—Reverse: Water Dragon Tornado!"

A gust of wind suddenly swept through the arena. Then, vast amounts of water vapor continuously surged and condensed, rapidly gathering between the two of them into a water tornado that reached from heaven to earth. Water-wave energy raged as the violent gale howled and spun.

Under that terrifying tearing force, the surrounding bluestone floor cracked apart one after another, turning into countless small stones that were swept into the wildly rotating tornado.

"Go!"

A flute note like a phoenix's cry rang out. Ruo Lin pointed her jade flute forward, and the raging water tornado roared toward Xiao Dongchen, spinning violently with the force to tear apart everything in its path.

"Good!"

Faced with the towering water tornado, Xiao Dongchen finally moved. Smiling at the corners of his mouth, he merged with the golden light and, rather than avoiding it, charged directly toward the violently spinning water tornado!

Holy shit!

What was going on?

Was he courting death?

Watching the golden figure charge straight into the heart of the storm, the watching students could not help opening their mouths wide, their eyes filled with disbelief.

Charging head-on into such a terrifying Dou Technique would probably injure even a Dou Wang. Was this guy insane?

"The instructor must have been pushed too far to use even this move. Xiao Dongchen, you absolutely must not be hurt!"

Xiao Yu's willow brows knit together as she looked at that unhesitating figure, her heart filled with deep concern.

"Brother Chen really loves showing off."

Xun'er, standing nearby, was not worried in the slightest. After all, she knew exactly how powerful the youth was at this moment!

Under everyone's gaze, Xiao Dongchen became like a bolt of golden lightning in the next instant, crashing fiercely into the wildly spinning water tornado. Then, a scalp-numbing tearing sound rang out as dense water mist burst forth, obscuring everyone's vision.

Only a moment later, when clarity returned to their eyes, they witnessed an utterly inconceivable scene.

That golden figure had actually torn the water tornado apart from the middle with his bare hands before everyone's eyes. As he shot out from it, the tornado behind him exploded, turning into a massive wave that crashed onto the ground and splashed water high into the sky.

The sight was utterly terrifying, shocking the entire audience!
