“Right… right…”
Gu Tianqing was already stunned.
What surprised him was not Fang Yuan subduing Junior Zhou with one move.
But…
Fang Yuan could actually control the Gold quality Gu worm!
Gu Tianqing could not accept it immediately.
But the reality was right before his eyes.
To be able to subdue Junior Zhou who was at the fourth layer of the Enlightenment Realm with one move, even though they were both prodigies, it could only mean that the Gold quality Gu worm’s abilities were too
monstrous.
Moreover, to be able to subdue a Gu worm with such an abnormal ability, it also indirectly meant that even though they could be called prodigies, they were actually not prodigies of the same level.
What kind of concept was this?
This meant that Fang Yuan’s aptitude was even higher than the eight people present combined!
Everyone was completely shocked by Fang Yuan’s revealed method.
They could not speak for a long time.
However, Fang Yuan continued to sum up his evaluation with a serious expression.
“Your defense is not bad, but taking a beating will only turn the battle into a tug-of-war of spirit essence intensity. If you encounter a Gu worm that can devour spirit essence, you won’t be able to do anything about it.
In the end, you won’t be able to enter the upper class.”
Fang Yuan looked at him, “Fortunately, you’re only at the Enlightenment Realm now. In the future, you can balance your abilities and make up for your shortcomings. There’s still hope.”
“Senior, you taught me a lesson…”
Junior Zhou was also desolate.
His long-standing perseverance had been shattered by someone in one day. This kind of feeling was really not good.
The female disciples in the distance heard the commotion and hurried back to ask what had happened.
Gu Tianqing’s face was gloomy and he didn’t want to speak. Junior Zhou and Junior Qin had closed themselves off, and it was still another male disciple who told them what had happened.
With just a few words, the few female disciples revealed shocked expressions.
“Senior Fang defeated Senior Brother Zhou and Senior Brother Qin in one move?”
The two unlucky fellows on the side had pale expressions, and their hearts were stabbed again.
Fang Yuan did not want these two to be unable to recover from the setback and affect their performance in the Gu Dao convention, so he spoke. “Their strength is not bad, but I found their weakness. If they are
careful, I will not be able to take them down easily.”
The two had a guilty expression.
Junior Zhou cupped his hands. “Senior’s strength is exceptional. I, Zhou Chang have lost. In the future, if you have any orders, just give them.”
“I, Qin Han, am the same!” Junior Qin also expressed his stance.
Gu Tianqing did not say anything. He was still not convinced.
The other male disciple who did not speak seemed like he was with Gu Tianqing.
A female disciple suddenly asked, “Then what about Senior Gu? Did Senior Gu and Senior Fang spar? Who won?”
Gu Tianqing immediately choked.
“I… L.. This spar is to let the leader understand what we are good at. There’s no such thing as winning or losing.”
“So that’s how it is.”
A beautiful female disciple blinked her eyes and looked at Fang Yuan. She asked sweetly, “Senior, can I try?”
“Of course you can.”
Fang Yuan did not reject.
He could see that the female disciples were not that serious. It was just that his introduction was too exaggerated, and they could not believe it.
They were not that competitive, and they did not want to fight for the position of team leader.
Now that he had shown his strength, that little misunderstanding was naturally resolved.
This young lady in front of him was really planning to spar.
She did not even release her protective spirit essence, summoning Gu worms one by one.
She even reminded him when she attacked.
“Senior, this is only an offensive type Gu worm, it is called the Wood Charm Gu, it can use green vines to harm enemies, be careful!”
Saying so, hundreds of green vines shot out like giant pythons, attacking Fang Yuan.
Fang Yuan’s acupoints lit up, and the fire was burning brightly. Before the Sunlight Gu flew out, the Yang Flame incarnation had already formed a barrier in front of him, protecting him.
There was no need to attack at all.
The green vines were burnt upon contact, dissipating on their own.
But Fang Yuan also held back, only maintaining thirty to forty percent of his spirit essence strength. Otherwise, if the Yang Flame incarnation used all of its strength and deflected the attack, the green vines summoned
by the Wood Charm Gu would probably burn up.
“Ah… Senior is so strong!”
The young girl exclaimed, changing her method and calling out another Gu worm. “Go!”
The Gu worm that flew out was blue in color. With a flash of light, the surrounding temperature dropped drastically, and cold air spread in all directions.
The pure white ice blade formed a storm that charged towards the Sunlight Gu’s Yang Flame Incarnation. Fang Yuan thought about it, but still did not increase his spirit essence strength, and still used less than half of
his strength to deal with it.
Sizzle sizzle…
One could imagine the temperature of the Yang Flame.
Even if this was an ice blade condensed from spirit essence, it would still melt in the high temperature.
However, due to Fang Yuan going easy on her, the Yang flame barrier was also rapidly weakening.
By the time it was completely gone, there was only one ice blade left in the air.
Fang Yuan raised his hand to hold it. The ice silk glove was extremely tough, so the blade did not cause him any injuries.
“Hu…”
The young girl panted lightly. It was obvious that the ice blade storm had consumed a lot of spirit essence. For a moment, she felt as if her spirit essence was not connecting at all.
“The timing of the attack and the strength of your spirit essence are both pretty good.”
Fang Yuan commented. “It’s just that Junior seems to be lacking in actual combat experience. Although you know how to use ice to dissolve my Yang Flame, when both parties are maintaining their condition pretty
well, in case releasing a large-scale elemental killing technique fails to injure the enemy, you won’t be able to follow up. Wouldn’t that be giving others a chance?”
The young girl pursed her lips, “Didn’t an ice blade pass through? Who would have thought that Senior would have a treasure to defend against it… you are cheating! Hmph!”
“Junior Ruan, you have already lost. Senior Fang did not use his full strength.” Gu Yuange suddenly said.
“Ah?”
The young girl turned to look at Gu Yuange. “Senior Gu, How can you tell?”
Gu Yuange’s gaze was like water as she calmly said, “Senior Fang’s spirit essence was only at the second layer of the Enlightenment Realm. With his level, he was probably afraid of hurting you, so he held back most of
his strength.”
“Is that true…”
The young girl blinked her eyes. “If he could still block my ice blade storm with half of his spirit essence, that Senior Fang should be a sixth layer Enlightenment Realm Gu master.”
Saying so, she looked at Fang Yuan excitedly. “Senior, tell me honestly, are you hiding your strength?”
“lam not. My physique is special, umm… and I have some powerful Gu worms, so in terms of spirit essence strength, I am much stronger than Gu masters of the same realm.” Fang Yuan was influenced by her lively
personality, and he said a bit more.
The young girl firmly believed him and asked, “Then, then those things you introduced in the hall earlier… that you are proficient in frontal combat, defense, elemental control and all sorts of other things, is it true!”
Fang Yuan said modestly. “I am not proficient, I only know a little about them.”
“Wow! Senior, don’t you have any weaknesses?”
“Ido.”
Fang Yuan thought seriously. “Right now, I only have one rank four Gu worm. If I can raise two more… | should not have any weaknesses in the Enlightenment Realm.”
