66 -66: It Should Be a Draw
Huang Xiaolong arrived at Star Sky Academy and had just entered the square when he encountered Li Lu.
“Xiao Long!” Li Lu, spotting Huang Xiaolong from afar, called out in delight and rushed over to embrace him as she had done before, catching the attention of passing teachers and students, while Huang Xiaolong gave a wry smile.
“Alright, everyone is watching,” said Huang Xiaolong.
Only then did Li Lu let go.
Having not seen each other for several months, Li Lu had grown significantly taller and her pretty face was even more delicate and charming.
Her smile showed enchanting dimples, her eyes sparkled, and her curved eyebrows exuded playfulness and adorability.
Feeling Huang Xiaolong’s gaze, Li Lu’s face turned slightly red and she looked down shyly.
“Xiao Long, the class competition and the grade competition are tomorrow.
You should be cautious of Jiang Teng,” Li Lu raised her head and said after a while.
“After you severely injured him last time, he was healed by the dean and the vice-dean, and he has been crazily cultivating for the past few months.
His strength has increased rapidly and he has already reached the Fourth-stage Late Stage Peak!”
Fourth-stage Late Stage Peak?
Huang Xiaolong was somewhat surprised.
He hadn’t expected that the kid had also reached Fourth-stage Late Stage Peak.
Suddenly, Huang Xiaolong’s eyes narrowed when he saw Jiang Teng approaching with a group of people in the distance.
Li Lu turned her head and saw Jiang Teng.
Her face changed and she moved behind Huang Xiaolong, which showed she was somewhat wary of Jiang Teng.
Seeing Li Lu’s reaction, Huang Xiaolong frowned.
Jiang Teng came up to Huang Xiaolong and glanced at Li Lu behind him.
A sneer appeared on his lips as he said to Huang Xiaolong, “I just heard from others that you were back, and it turns out to be true.
Tomorrow is the class competition, Huang Xiaolong, this time, I will make you regret it, deeply regret it!” And then, pointing at Li Lu, he added, “In tomorrow’s class competition, I want to see if you can save her like last time!”
By the end, Jiang Teng’s eyes twinkled with a fierce and deep animosity toward Huang Xiaolong.
Last time, at this very spot, Huang Xiaolong had defeated him in front of everybody, turning him, the so-called once-in-a-century superb genius of the academy, into the academy’s laughingstock!
Moreover, the entire Royal City had turned him into a subject of ridicule to chat about over meals.
Over these five months, he had lived every day amidst mockery and discussions from others, full of hatred—hatred for Huang Xiaolong and everything related to him!
He had spent every day and night of these five months in frenzied cultivation, all for the end-of-year class competition, to defeat Huang Xiaolong in front of everyone, to utterly crush him!
Huang Xiaolong looked at Jiang Teng, who seemed almost ready to swallow him whole with hatred, and coldly said, “Tomorrow?
There’s no need to wait until tomorrow!
Summon your sick cat Martial Soul.”
Sick cat Martial Soul!
The people who had come with Jiang Teng couldn’t help showing a mix of expressions.
Jiang Teng’s face turned furiously red as his eyes flashed coldly.
“Alright, Huang Xiaolong, if that’s how it is, then there’s no need to wait until tomorrow.
I will cripple you right now!” he declared, as his whole body surged with Bright Fighting Energy, summoning his Martial Soul, the Bright Holy Tiger.
Jiang Teng’s aura kept soaring—Fourth-stage, Fourth-stage Middle, Late Stage, Late Stage Peak, and suddenly, as his aura reached Jiang Teng at Fourth-stage Late Stage Peak, it surged violently, and he broke through to the Fifth level!
“Fifth-level!
Wasn’t Jiang Teng at the Fourth-stage Late Stage Peak?
Heavens, he actually broke through to the Fifth level!”
“That’s terrifying!
To break through from Fourth-stage to Fifth-level in less than half a year!”
Everyone, including Li Lu, was shocked.
The academy rumors had indicated that Jiang Teng was at Fourth-stage Late Stage Peak, but no one knew that Jiang Teng had actually broken through to the Fifth level!
Jiang Teng fully displayed his aura, and as he listened to the shocked and astonished discussions around him, a sense of pride and smugness crept into his heart.
To redeem himself at the end of the year and to shock the entire academy, he had even swallowed a Rare Spiritual Medicine, cherished by his family for a century, to forcibly break through to the Fifth-level.
“Huang Xiaolong, I’ve broken through to the Fifth-level, are you shocked?” Jiang Teng looked at Huang Xiaolong and sneered, “I don’t believe you can break through to the Fifth-level too!” Generally, even with an Eleventh Level Top Martial Soul, it would be difficult for Huang Xiaolong to break through from the Fourth-stage Late Stage Peak to the Fifth-level within five months.
In Jiang Teng’s view, unless Huang Xiaolong swallowed a Rare Spiritual Medicine like he did.
However, that should be impossible.
Jiang Teng’s eyes flashed fiercely, “Last time, you hit me with fifteen palm strikes!
This time, I will return thirty, a hundred palm strikes!” After speaking, Jiang Teng suddenly leaped forward and struck towards Huang Xiaolong with a palm, embedding all his hatred of the past five months into it.
“Tiger Flame Palm!”
“Tiger King Descends!”
A gigantic tiger followed the handprint, tearing through the sky.
In a distant corner, Sun Zhang and Xiong Chu stood there, surprised and taken aback by Jiang Teng’s displayed power.
Both had not expected Jiang Teng to break through to the Fifth-level before the class match.
In fact, they had been at the square early and had witnessed everything from the beginning but had not planned on intervening.
Xiong Chu exclaimed, “Jiang Teng really didn’t disappoint us, breaking through to the Fifth-level in just five months.
Originally, we thought Huang Xiaolong would take first place in the freshmen class competition, but now it seems uncertain!”
Sun Zhang’s gaze deepened as he said, “I’ve always been curious about what kind of Martial Soul Huang Xiaolong has.
With Jiang Teng breaking through to the Fifth-level, Huang Xiaolong will likely be forced to summon his Martial Soul!”
“Dean, who do you think will win this time between the two of them?” Xiong Chu asked.
Sun Zhang pondered for a moment, “It should be a tie!”
Meanwhile, Huang Xiaolong stood there, watching Jiang Teng’s palm strike approaching through the air, his eyes turned cold, and without much movement, he pressed his own palm into the void, his Mian Palm power colliding with the opponent’s Tiger Flame Palm.
In mid-air, Jiang Teng suddenly felt an overwhelmingly powerful force surge towards him like a giant wave.
“Boom!” With a loud crash, like stones shattered by great waves, Jiang Teng’s body violently shook, then he was sent flying.
Seizing the moment before his opponent’s body hit the ground, Huang Xiaolong’s figure flashed, positioned above him, his eyes icy as he pressed down another fierce palm strike.
“Stop!”
Sun Zhang and Xiong Chu shouted in alarm, rushing over with great speed, but they were still a step too late.
Huang Xiaolong’s handprint once again landed accurately on Jiang Teng’s chest, causing a dull booming noise.
Jiang Teng’s body plummeted straight from the sky into the ground, causing the entire square to tremble, the Star Light Stones around it cracking inch by inch, a sight both shocking and appalling.
Jiang Teng lay there like a dead dog, convulsing, mouth agape, emitting a feeble, squeaky sound.
Two figures descended swiftly from the sky; Sun Zhang and Xiong Chu finally arrived.
Seeing Jiang Teng lying there like a dead dog, their faces turned pale as they hurried forward, channeling their Fighting Energy, pouring it into Jiang Teng’s body, and began emergency treatment like the last time.
The surrounding freshmen and past students who had come with Jiang Teng watched Huang Xiaolong with faces filled with horror.
A few of the new students close to Jiang Teng were so frightened they panicked and fled, not daring to remain there.
After Huang Xiaolong slammed Jiang Teng into the ground, he landed, coldly watching his opponent.
This time, he had struck hard, intending to let his opponent fully understand the gap between them so that he would stop being pretentious in front of him in the future.
(Brothers, where are your recommendations?)
