Nurturing an Opponent
The flames arrived instantly, crashing down on Bai Yushan.
The orange-red flames instantly engulfed his upper body, and the fabric of his black tracksuit instantly carbonized and curled up, turning to ashes when blown by the airflow.
As the flames subsided, Bai Yushan's robust body was revealed.
The muscles were sculpted with fluid lines, each inch brimming with explosive power. The skin was pale and cold, yet beneath it shimmered with faint black and red electrical currents, as if lightning snakes were slithering through the flesh.
The flames burned the skin, leaving not even a red mark.
The body, tempered by 380,000 volts of Electric Current Push, cannot be harmed in the slightest by ordinary fire.
Just as Bai Yushan's throat moved, about to utter a sarcastic remark...
call--
A fierce gust of wind swept across the ground.
Gu Yue didn't give him a chance to speak at all.
Before the smoke from the exploding flames had even dissipated, she had already used the smoke as cover, and with the wind element empowering her feet, she stretched herself into a taut longbow in mid-air.
Her waist was stretched to its limit, and her long, silvery-white hair stretched into a straight line behind her.
His right fist was clenched, the knuckles covered with a layer of pale blue Wind Blade, and also entwined with tiny sparks.
A punch was thrown!
There wasn't a single unnecessary movement.
"Bang!"
Bai Yushan reacted swiftly.
He didn't even bother to get into a fighting stance; he simply raised his right hand and threw a punch.
Fist against fist.
A muffled thud exploded.
Gu Yue felt a tremendous force surge up her arm, instantly making her entire arm go numb.
She flew backward like a kite with a broken string.
But in mid-air, she suddenly twisted her waist and abdomen.
Wind elements exploded behind them.
The figure, which should have been flying backwards, paused in mid-air for a full half second.
Then, using the recoil, she touched the ring shield with her toes.
Bang!
A ripple appeared on the protective shield.
Gu Yue was like an arrow released from a bow, but instead of being shot, she bounced back towards Bai Yushan even faster.
Bai Yushan's eyes suddenly lit up.
It sparkled with immense excitement.
What an incredibly strong will!
What a swift change of tactics!
This is the kind of opponent I've been looking for!
A surge of wild joy welled up inside him.
From the moment they became disciples of Leng Yaozhu, he had been constantly feeding her moves and sparring with her.
He wanted to personally cultivate an opponent who could rival him!
Otherwise, what's the point of constantly beating up those guys who can be knocked down with a single punch?
The thought flashed through his mind in an instant, and Gu Yue had already rushed in front of him.
She feinted with her left hand in front of her.
The fist was enveloped in dazzling light elements, so white it was blinding.
This is for dazzling purposes.
Bai Yushan didn't even blink.
Under the Electromagnetic Clarity, all her movements were clearly visible.
The left hand is empty.
The real killer move is in the right hand.
Sure enough, the next second...
Gu Yue flipped his right hand up from his waist.
His fist was covered with an inch-thick ice spike, and sparks crackled at the tip of the ice spike.
Ice and Fire Explosive Fist!
The angle was tricky, heading straight for the waist of Bai Yushan.
He took a slight step at the foot of Bai Yushan.
He shifted half a foot to the side.
Just in time, I dodged the sharp edge of the icicle.
At the same time, he cut his left arm horizontally.
He slammed his elbow hard into Gu Yue's forearm.
A crisp "click" sounded.
The ice cone shattered instantly.
Ice shards flew everywhere.
Gu Yue felt a numbness in her forearm.
But instead of retreating, she advanced.
Using the force of the impact on his forearm, he spun around.
Sweep your left leg backward.
His legs were covered in a layer of Wind Blade, like a sharp longsword of wind.
It swept across the back of Bai Yushan's knees.
Fast and cunning.
If this blow lands squarely, even someone made of steel would have to kneel.
Bai Yushan slightly bent his knees.
Just in time to avoid the Wind Blade.
The Wind Blade grazed his knee, cutting a bit of his skin.
The next second, he reached out and grabbed Gu Yue's ankle.
The fingers were like iron clamps.
Gu Yue reacted extremely quickly.
The earth element beneath their feet exploded instantly.
A column of earth shot out from beneath her feet.
Using this force, she was lifted half a foot upwards.
They dodged Bai Yushan's grasping hand.
At the same time, she pressed her right hand down.
Several ice spikes shot out from his palm, heading straight for Bai Yushan's face.
The distance was extremely close, and the speed was extremely fast.
Bai Yushan peak is slightly off-center.
Ice spikes grazed his cheek as they flew past.
A very shallow cut was made on his face.
The blood streaks that had just seeped out were burned and healed by the electric current that circulated under the skin.
Bai Yushan licked the corner of his mouth.
The smell of blood.
Strong enough!
He became even more excited.
An electric arc exploded beneath his feet.
He instantly lunged forward.
It moved so fast that it left a trail of afterimages.
His right fist aimed straight for Gu Yue's lower abdomen.
There were no fancy tricks.
It's fast, it's heavy.
The Gu Yue has just set, the old forces have just departed, and the new forces have not yet arisen.
There's no way to avoid it.
She could only cross her arms in front of her lower abdomen.
Earth elements coalesced into thick Rock Armor on his arms.
"Bang!"
A solid punch landed.
The Rock Armor was instantly covered in cracks.
Gu Yue slid backward about ten feet.
The soles of the shoes wore two deep grooves into the stone bricks.
A sweet taste rose in my throat, and I almost spat out blood.
She swallowed it back.
In his silver-purple eyes, the fighting spirit burned even brighter.
She knew Bai Yushan was holding back.
If that punch had been delivered with full force, her Rock Armor wouldn't have been able to withstand it.
But the more this happened, the more resentful she became.
Gu Yue took a deep breath.
Six elements are circulating wildly within the body.
Wind element enhances speed, earth element enhances defense, fire element enhances attack, ice element enhances sharpness, light element disrupts vision, and spatial element fine-tunes movement.
All six elements are bestowed upon him.
Her speed instantly increased again.
His figure blurred, transforming into a silvery-white afterimage.
They charged towards Bai Yushan once again.
This time, she was even faster.
Moreover, his body movements shifted erratically from left to right.
A burst of light erupted around her.
It was as if several Gu Yue were attacking from different directions at the same time.
It's difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.
Bai Yushan stood still, his eyes closed.
Electromagnetic Clarity is fully activated.
No need to look.
Every movement around him, the flow of his Soul Power, the twitching of his muscles, was clearly imprinted in his mind.
The left side is virtual, and the right side is also virtual.
The real body is directly behind.
Wait, there's also... underfoot?
Gu Yue actually used earth element to pierce from underground?
No, it's a feint attack.
The real body is to the left rear!
Bai Yushan suddenly turned around.
His right hand reached out precisely.
It caught Gu Yue's wrist perfectly.
This is it!
Gu Yue was startled.
How could her true identity, which she had hidden so well, be caught red-handed?
Without a second thought, she threw a punch at Bai Yushan's ribs with her left hand.
His fist was engulfed in flames.
Bai Yushan neither flinched nor avoided.
He took the punch.
A muffled "thud".
Flames exploded beneath his ribs.
The skin didn't even turn red.
Bai Yushan grinned.
"Is that all the strength you have?"
He tightened his grip.
He grabbed Gu Yue's wrist and pulled her into his arms.
He placed his other hand on her shoulder.
I'm about to give him an over-the-shoulder throw.
Gu Yue reacted extremely quickly.
The wrist that was grabbed instantly became slippery.
Water element!
She secreted a film of water onto the surface of her skin.
Slippery as a fish.
Bai Yushan felt his hand slip.
Gu Yue had already used the slippery force to break free.
At the same time, she lunged forward and pressed herself close to Bai Yushan's arms.
His head slammed forward.
His forehead was covered by a thin layer of ice armor.
Headbutt!
Heading straight for the bridge of Bai Yushan.
It was both ruthless and sudden.
Bai Yushan tilted its head back.
He rubbed his forehead against his forehead as they passed by.
We almost crashed.
Gu Yue's attack missed.
Lift your knee up.
Knee strike!
Heading straight for the lower abdomen of Bai Yushan.
The angle is sinister.
Bai Yushan pulled in his lower abdomen.
He took that knee head-on.
A muffled thud.
Gu Yue felt as if his knee had hit a piece of steel.
It hurts terribly.
She gritted her teeth and took half a step back.
Just as I was about to charge again.
