"Senior Brother Wei, please!"
"Junior Brother Fang, please!"
Fang Qianyuan and Wei Qingxuan saluted each other on the platform, then stood facing one another.
The clamor around them gradually subsided, for the match was about to begin.
Looking at his opponent, Fang Qianyuan recalled what Gong Yuan and the others had told him when he had asked about the prodigies of the various academies.
"Wei Qingxuan is Taiyang Academy's most outstanding prodigy in recent years. His primary Spirit Creature is the Windhowl Lion, and his mastery of Transformation Dao arts is both polished and profound. Combined with the mortal martial art Lion King Fist, it gives him considerable combat strength."
How should I deal with an opponent like this?
Clang!
The gong rang, and Fang Qianyuan moved instantly.
In that brief instant, he had decided to throw all other considerations aside and defeat his enemy at his own pace.
Endless variations and adapting to the enemy really aren't my strengths. As things stand, I don't have enough time to build that kind of foundation, either. Better to master one winning trick and use it to conquer the world.
As long as I'm faster and fiercer than my opponent, I can win!
"So aggressive?" Seeing Fang Qianyuan take the initiative to attack, Wei Qingxuan was startled-and a little annoyed.
You're a junior who joined after me. Just standing here is impressive enough. Do you really think your senior brother is such a pushover that you can knock him down at will?
Wei Qingxuan channeled Spirit Essence throughout his body. His movements quickened until he actually matched Fang Qianyuan's Shadow Step.
Their fists and palms collided. After a few quick probing exchanges, each found the other difficult to handle.
Raising your cultivation really does make up for your shortcomings!
That thought flashed
