Chapter 427: Burning Solitude
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The light blade pierced the air, crashing down with the power of the burning heavens. The Sky Blood Spear unleashed a fierce strike, releasing a powerful ray of spear attack that charged at the sword blade wildly. Two rows of ripples rose up violently.
Boom!
The two attacks collided, causing a frightening explosion when the two weapons made contact with each other, sending out a fearsome shockwave.
This shocking show of power attracted everyone’s attention, people looked on, excited.
“Haha, interesting.” Wang Tianxiao sneered. “Explains your arrogance – you’ve got some moves hidden up your sleeve.”
He drew his Spirit Weapon – a treasure sword – from his back.
“Heaven’s Strength Burning Solitude, Day as Lightning!”
Boom!
When he shouted, the top-tier spirit weapon in his hand – the Burning Solitude Sword – started to slowly rise, like a second sun in the sky.
The Lightning of Burning Solitude surrounded the sun, giving off screeching noises as the fiery glow and the lightning came into contact.
The Burning Solitude Sword Aura formed into the Bright Sun, shining brightly in the sky. The hundred-meter tall Burning Solitude Sun resembled the center of a formation as rays of Burning Solitude Lightning sparkled unusually, shaking the earth and the heavens.
“Wang Tianxiao can utilize his Heaven’s Strength powers to such perfection,” one of the elites of the Luosha Kingdom said. “The combination of the Burning Solitude lightning, fire and Heaven’s Strength Force is extremely powerful.”
In the whole arena, only fighters in the Heaven’s Strength Realm or above could see the actual technical breakdown of Wang Tianxiao’s attack.
“Heaven’s Strength Force?”
Ye Mo noticed it immediately – Wang Tianxiao had already unleashed all of his powers, even the Heaven’s Strength Force. He frowned.
What’s more, his opponent had already displayed the heaven and earth-moving illusion, a technique that only fighters in the Explosive Energy Realm were able to use.
The Explosive Energy Realm was achieved when one exploded their True Energy, causing an earth-shaking illusion. Using that technique, one would be able to access a hint of nature’s powers.
Stop him immediately. The thought flashed across Ye Mo’s mind. His light blade attacked the Bright Sun in the sky with a spear strike. Piercing it only caused the smallest of ripples.
“I was going to save this move for the fight for the top 10,” Wang Tianxiao said. “But you’ve made me mad. I’ll show you what happens when you’re burnt with the Lightning and Flame of Burning Solitude.”
He unleashed a fiery red glow that scattered in all directions. Rays of Lightning of Burning Solitude jumped around like poisonous snakes as the glowing rays engulfed Ye Mo. With lightning surrounding the glowing light, anyone trapped inside was destined for a painful death.
“I’ll break through this glowing light of yours!”
Withdrawing his Sky Blood Spear, Ye Mo combined his Bright Dragon Powers with the Light of the Bright Dragon and launched his attack.
Boom!
A single attack caused the glowing light to start twisting and bending.
“The Light of the Bright Sun is the true Bright Sun. That Burning Solitude Sword of yours is a mere pretender.”
Ye Mo unleashed another punch, causing a huge hole in the unbreakable glowing light. He flew out of the enclosure.
“How is that possible?” Wang Tianxiao’s eyes widened. “How did you break through my glowing light?”
“Who’s this teenager dressed in black?” The Luosha Emperor stared icily at Ye Mo from the guest-of-honor section. “Even Wang Tianxiao has no idea how to handle him.”
“If my predictions are correct, even Wang Tianxiao might not be a worthy opponent for him.”
The elder in Chinese attire held his breath, feeling extremely nervous. He sighed in relief when he saw Ye Mo break free from Wang Tianxiao’s glowing light.
The Luosha Institution students Ye Mo had defeated were left speechless as they witnessed the fight. If Ye Mo was certain to be killed facing Wang Tianxiao before, they were no longer so confident. They watched on in disbelief.
In the air, Ye Mo exploded upwards. The Sky Blood Spear unleashed its spiritual powers for the first time!
“Sky Blood Spear, Second Style: Bloody Battle of the Heavens!”
Boom, boom boom!
With everyone watching, a bloody glow that read “Battle” descended from the sky, charging violently towards Wang Tianxiao.
The frightening dominance of the attack pressed down on Wang Tianxiao to the extent that he couldn’t even open his eyes. All he could do was to awaken his True Energy Armor and use his Burning Solitude Sword to block in front of his chest.
Before the “Battle” word had even finished descending, the whole stage started to collapse. Multiple huge explosions were heard. Unstable, Wang Tianxiao found it extremely difficult to jump off the stage. With a roar, the Burning Solitude Sword in his hand started to give off a fiery glow as he unleashed a sword strike.
A hundred-meter long Burning Solitude light blade formed a vacuum, seemingly trying to split the “Battle” word into half.
Boom!
The light blade from the spear was unstoppable. The Burning Solitude sword strike dissipated.
A giant storm of dust and debris formed, blurring the crowd’s vision of the fight. Everyone was focusing on the battle stage where Ye Mo and Wang Tianxiao were in.
The crowd was as excited as if this were a fight for the top 10.
But everyone in the crowd knew that there was only one outcome to this battle – regardless of whether or not he had blocked Ye Mo’s Bloody Battle of the Heavens, his defeat was already guaranteed.
Whoosh!
A breeze blew by as the dust cleared up. One man was standing proudly, the other lay across the ground, distraught.
Woah!
The crowd gasped collectively. Even participants who had finished competing could not help but be shocked.
Everyone watched on, eyes wide, jaws dropped.
Luosha Institution’s fifth strongest fighter, Wang Tianxiao, had just lost to an unknown fighter. No one in the crowd could understand it.
Ignoring the stares from the crowd, Ye Mo slowly walked off the stage.
“That’s the guy who struck the fighters of our institution?”
In the waiting area, a teenager looked at Ye Mo with a stern look on his face.
This man was tall and well-built and carried a long spear on his back. There was a scary-looking Luosha tattoo on his bare right arm.
“Prince Luo Hun, he’s the one who attacked our institution’s student,” the man behind Luo Hun said under his breath. “No wonder he’s so arrogant – he was able to defeat Wang Tianxiao.”
“Based on his strength, if nothing goes wrong, he should be able to make it into the top 10.” Luo Hun laughed coldly, a dark look in his eyes. “If he matches up with me, I’ll show him that Luosha Institution’s students aren’t all pushovers.”
After the conversation, the battle drums sounded again, marking the start of the fight for the top 50.
Afterward, Ye Mo attracted plenty of attention every time he competed. His next opponents weren’t as strong as Wang Tianxiao, and Ye Mo continued to defeat them each with a single move.
There were also a few fighters with impressive performances. Luo Hun did well, as did other elite fighters of the Luosha Institution. So did Zi Yi.
But Luo Hun and the rest were all well-known elite talents in the Luosha Kingdom. Ye Mo and Zi Yi were two dark horses that had emerged from nowhere.
