X-Dragon Era-Chapter 585 - s Formidable Ming Xuan
Time slipped by, second by second, and in the blink of an eye... ten seconds had passed since the competition started. Although it wasn't a long time, for Ming Xuan, it felt as though a century had gone by!

On the other side, Xin Yun had already hurried back to Po Kong's side, watching the battle from a distance. Neither Po Kong nor Xin Yun had any intention of helping out. They both understood all too well that one had to deal with their own issues, and any interference at this time would not only fail to earn gratitude but would also disrupt the team's unity and stability. Whoever intervened would offend Ming Xuan.
From another perspective, if Ming Xuan couldn't handle such an opponent, then he really had no reason to exist. Although this opponent was his nemesis, it was certain that there would be many more people at least ten times more formidable in the future World Academy challenge. If he couldn't even get past this, was there any point in talking about the future?
Indeed, Xin Yun and Po Kong, as well as Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, and even Ming Xuan himself, were all very clear about this. But clear as they might be, the audience didn't understand.
For Xin Yun and Po Kong's performance, everyone was nothing short of awe-stricken by the furious combat unfolding before them. However, what followed baffled them completely.
After easily dealing with their respective opponents, the audience expected Xin Yun and Po Kong to join forces with Ming Xuan and swiftly crush the last opponent, thereby overcoming the challenge. After all... this wasn't just a duel between individuals; it was a decisive battle between teams, with no room for personal whims!
But in reality, after dispatching their opponents, Xin Yun and Po Kong casually gathered together and began watching the competition just like the rest of the audience, as if the person fiercely battling on the field wasn't their teammate.
For a moment, all the spectators began to speculate, the murmurs growing louder and more widespread. In just a short while, the entire spectator stand was blanketed in discussion.
As the noise grew louder and more clamorous, Xin Yun and Po Kong were unfazed because everyone was talking, and no one could make out what was being discussed. But for Ming Xuan, it was a whole different story.
Listening to the ever-increasing, raucous din of the crowd, Ming Xuan's face rapidly paled. Even though he couldn't make out what everyone was saying, his mind nevertheless conjured up all sorts of conclusions.
"What kind of trash is this, to be in the same team as Xin Yun and Po Kong with such ability? He's bringing shame upon shame. Does he even deserve it?" In his mind, vicious curses echoed violently.
"This trash will never amount to anything in his life. I despise such people who only know how to pretend to be something they're not. Why doesn't he just die? Besides dragging his teammates down, what can he even do?" This was another voice that arose in Ming Xuan's mind.
Many horrific voices echoed intermittently in his mind. As he stared at his opponent, resisting the onslaught, Ming Xuan's eyes grew emptier. Was he... about to return to a time when he would be despised, endure hardship, and be utterly unable to attain dignity and glory?
"No... no... no!" Amid his inner turmoil, Ming Xuan's eyes grew even more hollow. The next moment... Ming Xuan suddenly raised his head and let out a frenzied shout—Peacock Screen... open for me!
As Ming Xuan's hysterical roar echoed, the Peacock Dragon's body trembled violently. The next moment... a majestic aura spread from the Peacock Dragon's body, and as the five-colored light flickered, the tail feathers behind the Peacock Dragon stood upright one by one, unfolding like the most dazzling fan in the world, and the stunning Peacock Screen finally opened!
"Wow!" As this stunning scene unfolded, all the audience members stopped their noisy discussions. Everyone stood up, gawking at Ming Xuan in the arena, watching the slowly unfurling Peacock Dragon.
"Not enough! The power isn't enough..." Although the Peacock Screen had successfully opened, Ming Xuan still hadn't received enough power to instantly crush his opponent. Trembling wildly, his eyes grew even emptier. Upon closer inspection, his pupils turned a dead gray. Indeed... at this moment, Ming Xuan was gambling with his life, even his soul. Desperate for power, he was willing to sacrifice everything. He could not and would not return to the dark times of his past, not even in death.
"Ahh!" Finally, Ming Xuan's body stiffened sharply. In an instant... a cyan beam of Rainbow Light shot straight into the sky from behind him! Yet, this was just the beginning.
As the first pillar of light ascended into the heavens, Ming Xuan's roar had not ceased. It was as if he was building up something, and the next moment... a second pillar of light rose, a brilliant, golden beam of golden Rainbow Light!
Following the golden Rainbow Light, a crimson pillar and then a blazing white column subsequently shot up, piercing the sky. Witnessing this, Po Kong's eyes shone brightly as he roared, "Good! Truly formidable, to have broken through in such a situation!"
In response to Po Kong's praise, Xin Yun smiled proudly. This pride was not for himself, but for his brother, for Ming Xuan. To have such a brother was surely something to be proud of.
Casting a sideways glance at Po Kong, Xin Yun proudly declared, "Po Kong, remember this well. In this world, if there must be one person in the future who even you cannot contend with, then that person is him – Ming Xuan!"
