Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xiao Lei and Xiao Zhuobin exchanged a glance, then nodded emphatically without further hesitation, and retreated dozens of feet away.
Standing still, Xiao Yan turned his head and glanced at Xiao Dingtian, who was frowning and staring at them from the stands. A smile appeared on his lips, and then he suddenly waved his hand in the air. In an instant, the huge black ruler appeared in his hand.
The heavy ruler came into view, bringing with it a powerful, oppressive sound. Pointing it diagonally at the ground, a strong gust of wind whipped up the dust on the ground. Then, with a violent jerk, a loud "poof" was heard, and in the blink of an eye, a raging flame covered the entire giant ruler. The temperature in this area also suddenly increased in that instant.
"It really is Heavenly Flames..."
On the stands, Xiao Dingtian stared at the raging flames covering the entire ruler, a look of surprise immediately appearing in his old eyes. Even the other elders present were also staring at the flames attached to the ruler with astonishment, their eyes revealing a burning passion.
His expression gradually returned to indifference, and Xiao Yan's grip on the giant ruler tightened. A moment later, he took a step forward, and the extremely hard black rock slab was cracked under his foot. At the same time, a surging aura of pressure swept outward from Xiao Yan's body, and his indifferent cold shout echoed throughout the entire area.
" Xiao Yan, Three-Star Yuan Zong, humbly request your guidance!"
"Whoosh!"
Upon hearing this, everyone present couldn't help but gasp in surprise, and a commotion resounded throughout the venue. Countless gazes instantly focused on Xiao Yan, their eyes filled with horror.
"Is this guy crazy?! He's going to take on two opponents by himself?"
"A few years ago, Xiao Lei and Xiao Zhuobin were not much inferior to him. Now, Xiao Yan dares to be so arrogant, taking on two opponents at once. He's simply overestimating himself!"
"They probably know they're doomed to lose, so they're using this as an excuse."
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, a murmur of discussion immediately arose among the elders. As Xiao Dingtian's advisors, they naturally expressed their disdain for Xiao Yan's actions. On the other hand, Xiao Yan Xiao Yan looked at him with astonishment, unable to believe that he would be so reckless.
"Hey, could it be that he's given up entirely? Or perhaps, like his ancestor, he has a deadly trump card?"
Xiao Qian made a seemingly joking comment, but when these words reached Xiao Dingtian's ears, the latter's heart skipped a beat. The cold smile on Xiao Yan's face when he looked in their direction flashed through his mind, and an uneasy feeling involuntarily welled up in his heart.
"Hmph, if he wants to go all in, let's see how he ends up losing!"
After a long pause, Xiao Dingtian snorted coldly, then ignored him and sat back down, gazing indifferently at the scene before him.
At this moment, when Xiao Lei and Xiao Zhuobin felt the powerful aura emanating from Xiao Yan, they couldn't help but nod slightly. Putting aside everything else, this domineering aura alone was enough to make them take him seriously.
"Okay, coming!"
With a hearty shout, the two men took a step forward in unison, and with a wave of their hands, their weapons were thrown out. At the same time, two powerful auras swept across the entire area once again.
" Xiao Zhuobin, Four-Star Yuan Zong, requests to fight!"
" Xiao Lei, Five-Star Yuan Zong, requests to fight!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the crowd erupted in uproar once again. Xiao Yan's cultivation alone was enough to crush most of the younger generation of the Xiao Clan present. But what they did not expect was that Xiao Zhuobin and Xiao Lei's cultivation was even more terrifying!
One is Four-Star Yuan Zong, and the other is Five-Star Yuan Zong Master. Both of them are stronger than Xiao Yan. At this moment, Xiao Yan has to face both of them at the same time. Given the absolute disparity in strength, the outcome of this battle is self-evident.
At this moment, when Xiao Yan felt the even more astonishing aura emanating from Xiao Lei's body, his heart sank slightly. The current situation was naturally the last thing he wanted to see. If the opponent was two Four-Star Yuan Zong, it would be fine, but if there was an additional Five-Star Yuan Zong, then the whole situation would be difficult to control!
Although the difference between the two may seem to be only a thin line, in actual combat, the gap is like an insurmountable chasm. Moreover, Xiao Yan's current cultivation level has only just broken through to the Three-Star Yuan Zong Sect.
On the field, as the auras of the three continued to rise, the atmosphere on the huge stone platform instantly became tense. The surrounding clamor gradually quieted down, and everyone's eyes were focused on the three of them, waiting for the moment of explosion to arrive.
"Drink!"
In the center of the martial arts arena, Xiao Yan slowly closed his eyes, exhaled a long breath, and then suddenly opened his eyes. A raging flame flashed in his dark eyes, and surging Origin Qi suddenly burst out of his body. Almost at the same time, he let out a low shout, stomped his feet on the ground, and his figure instantly broke through the void, rushing straight towards the two opposite him!
"Clang!"
Without much fanfare, the collision between the two sides was a violent and explosive one!
The enormous ruler, enveloped in flames, collided violently with the purple spear wreathed in lightning. The deafening roar caused the invisible void to tremble instantly.
"What a powerful force!"
Sensing the astonishing force descending from the giant ruler, Xiao Lei's expression changed slightly. He then abruptly retreated, followed by brandishing his spear, which, enveloped in lightning, fiercely thrust towards various parts of Xiao Yan's body.
"Ding ding ding ding..."
The spear was sharp and the attack was swift, but compared to that, the massive ruler in Xiao Yan's hands was no less formidable. The ruler's edge spun, one strike after another, deflecting all the spear shadows. At the same time, the fierce force on it caused Xiao Lei's hand, which was gripping the spear, to feel a sharp pain.
After a hundred clashes, the two fought with increasing ferocity, their movements becoming incredibly fast. Some of the Xiao Clan disciples in the stands could no longer make out their exact figures, while the rest stared intently, their faces burning with excitement, not wanting to miss a single moment, and exclaiming in amazement from time to time.
At the same moment, Xiao Zhuobin, on the other side, gripped his longsword and swung it. Afterimages gradually solidified in the void and then transformed into countless sword lights. As he swung his longsword horizontally, the sword lights, accompanied by a sharp whooshing sound, shot towards Xiao Yan.
"Brother Xiao Yan, be careful! This is his signature move, the Falling Wind Shadow-Splitting Sword!"
Xiao Lei repelled Xiao Yan in one fell swoop and laughed as he gave a reminder.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan didn't even turn his head. He simply covered the entire area with his immense Spiritual Strength, letting the sword shadows shoot towards him. He held the giant ruler above his head, flames condensed, and then he slashed down fiercely!
"Try my move, Sevenfold Heaven-Breaking Ruler!"
A terrifying beam of light suddenly shot out. Xiao Lei was surprised. He didn't expect Xiao Yan to disregard his back and attack him instead. He didn't dare to hesitate any longer. He spun his spear, lightning flashed, and surging Origin Qi gathered wildly in it. In the blink of an eye, it had condensed into a lightning dragon on the spear, and then he thrust it forward!
" Thunder Shakes the Nine Heavens!"
"Boom!"
The two Dou Technique collided, and an explosion resounded. Xiao Lei retreated quickly and looked up. He still couldn't see the specific situation at the center of the energy explosion, but he could clearly see that in the center of the energy-filled field, streaks of light shot out and made a series of collision sounds, shattering all the sword shadows that fell like a rainstorm.
In the center of the arena, Xiao Zhuobin looked at Xiao Yan, whose figure was flashing rapidly towards him, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes. He himself was of the wind attribute, so he was quite sensitive to speed. However, Xiao Yan was able to unleash such amazing speed with the cultivation of Three-Star Yuan Zong, which really surprised him.
Even so, just as Xiao Yan approached within ten meters of him, he lightly touched the ground with his toes, his figure flashing instantly, appearing beside Xiao Yan in a flash, passing by the figure that had rushed forward earlier.
In an instant, Xiao Zhuobin swung his longsword horizontally, the sharp sword energy tearing through the void and shooting straight at Xiao Yan's vital points.
"Laugh..."
However, just as the sword light was about to strike Xiao Yan's body, the latter's body was mysteriously submerged in the void before his shocked gaze.
The next moment, a hand slowly pressed against Xiao Zhuobin's back, gave a gentle tremor, and his body shot forward, only stopping dozens of feet away with an incredulous expression. He immediately turned back to look at the scene and exclaimed:
"You haven't comprehended the Great Dao of Fire, but rather the Great Dao of the Void?"
"Heh, I never said that I had comprehended the Great Dao of Fire."
Just then, a faint, mocking laugh suddenly came from behind Xiao Zhuobin. When he turned around, he immediately saw Xiao Yan with a smile on his face, and he was once again filled with horror.
"Tsk tsk, it seems we all underestimated you."
At this moment, Xiao Lei stepped forward again, raised his hand and glanced at the bloodstain on his palm. He couldn't help but grin. The two of them had been training outside for so long, but they never expected that they would suffer a setback because they underestimated the strength of others. Although Xiao Yan's combat strength was undoubtedly a factor, this fact still made the two of them feel rather uncomfortable.
"Hey, in that case, we'd better show some real skill!"
Xiao Zhuobin flashed and appeared beside Xiao Lei in the blink of an eye. The two exchanged a smile, then looked at Xiao Yan in front of them and said teasingly:
"Hehe, I've heard that Brother Xiao Yan has also cultivated one of the Three Gods' Wraths, the Fire God's Wrath. How about we give it a try today? Your Fire God's Wrath God is far superior to our Thunder God's Fury and the Wind God's Fury!"
