69. Fighting one-on-one
Lu Zhi swaggered over to the larger spring and declared, "This is mine!"
Lu Zhi was the first to do it, and the others had different expressions. Shi Meng, Shi Han, and Wan Qing still had some struggle in their eyes, but in the end they did not react.
Xu Yingwu was about to speak when Xiao Yan stepped forward and said, "It's yours now? You, Lu Zhi, don't even deserve it!"
Seeing that Xiao Yan was the first to step forward, Lu Zhi's expression turned ugly, and his eyes were full of killing intent.
"Xiao Yan, do you really think you're someone special just because you gained an advantage through a sneak attack?"
Xiao Yan showed no fear in his eyes and calmly said, "Since when has the arrogant Lu Zhi resorted to intimidation?"
"You sharp-tongued brat, die!" After Lu Zhi's legs condensed into hurricane patterns, a series of wind blades attacked Xiao Yan.
The unidentified voice had previously mentioned that the ban on fighting was only for one day, and twelve hours had already passed. The ban on everyone had been lifted.
Xiao Yan casually dodged all the wind blades launched by Lu Zhi, and said, "I don't know if you listened to Lu Mingzhe and washed your neck clean."
Seeing Xiao Yan's casual demeanor, Lu Zhi knew that Xiao Yan's strength must have improved again during this period. The coldness in his eyes intensified. He was undoubtedly the number one young person in the Northwest Region. He would not allow anyone to show talent stronger than his own. If anyone did, they would have to be killed.
As soon as Xiao Yan and Lu Zhi started their battle, the people around them knew very well that this spiritual spring was not so easy to obtain. There were four large and four small springs, and the distribution was destined to be based on strength!
With a flash of green light from the Azure Scale Serpent's three-flowered pupils, the Nine Netherworld Python, over three zhang long, appeared behind Azure Scale. The chilling power emanating from the Nine Netherworld Python made the surrounding air seem to freeze.
The appearance of the Nine Netherworld Python also surprised Wan Qing and his companions: they had never seen such a serpentine demonic beast in the Northwest Region before, and judging from the chilling power it emitted, it was definitely not an easy opponent to deal with.
Under Qing Lin's command, the Nine Netherworld Python attacked Shi Meng, unleashing chilling breaths that sealed off Shi Meng's body.
When Shi Meng saw Qing Lin coming towards him, he laughed and said, "Little sister, don't be angry that I'm going to kill your toy later."
As he spoke, Shi Meng threw a punch at the Nine Netherworld Python that was charging at him. He was secretly pleased, after all, Xu Yingwu was no pushover. Xiao Xun'er's consistent dominance of the rankings was something that they all found unbelievable, and she was not someone to be trifled with.
Relatively speaking, although the power of the Azure Serpent's Three-Flower Pupil is enviable, the Azure Scale is still the easiest to deal with due to its level limitation.
However, when Shi Meng was swept by the chilling breath of the Nine Netherworld Python, his smile, which had lasted for several breaths, suddenly froze. Even with his physical strength, being swept by the breath made him feel as if his blood was about to freeze.
"Damn, what extreme cold and yin power!"
Before Shi Meng could react, a green light enveloped him.
"Isn't the Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil only effective against serpentine magical beasts?" Shi Meng thought to himself subconsciously.
The next second, an undeniable sense of submission welled up in his heart. After all, Shi Meng was a nine-star Dou Huang, and his mind returned to normal after two breaths.
But the ferocious head of the Nine Netherworld Python was already in front of him. "Damn it!" Shi Meng kept shouting in his heart.
Shi Meng was instantly frozen into an ice sculpture by the Nine Netherworld Python, while Qing Lin smiled and said, "Well done, Xiao Han!"
The Nine Netherworld Python, connected to its master's mind, intensified its freezing of Shi Meng.
However, Qinglin's joy was short-lived. The ice block that Shi Meng had transformed into shattered inch by inch, and Shi Meng's body suddenly swelled up, his excessively muscular body completely enveloping him.
The real battle has only just begun!
Just as Shi Han was about to challenge Xu Yingwu, Wan Qing burst out, wielding a blade in both hands, and attacked Xu Yingwu.
Xu Yingwu took out a folding fan and unfolded it, saying, "Wan Qing, are you still not convinced that you lost to me in alchemy?"
Wan Qing's blade flashed, locking down every vital point on Xu Yingwu's body.
"You're doomed to lose today!"
Xu Yingwu put away his signature nonchalant smile and said, "Then let me see if you, Wan Qing, who claims to be an expert in all military matters, are capable of winning a victory against me."
The Echo Sect's signature sonic combat techniques relentlessly attacked Wan Qing from both physical and spiritual perspectives. Wan Qing, a fifth-grade alchemist with a formidable soul, found himself evenly matched with Xu Yingwu in their battle.
Looking at the three battle groups, Shi Han secretly groaned inwardly.
Lu Zhi didn't expect Xiao Yan to dare challenge him. Of course, if he had a choice, he wouldn't want to face Xiao Yan either, since who knows if that guy can still unleash the skill that killed the Ping Shan Rhinoceros.
After that, Qinglin chose to fight Shi Meng herself, and Shi Meng probably wouldn't have been willing to switch opponents with her.
Only Xu Yingwu remained. Wan Qing and Xu Yingwu had a long-standing feud, and Wan Qing was too late; Wan Qing and Xu Yingwu were locked in combat.
Now, only one person remains on the field: the stunningly beautiful Xiao Xun'er, who stands gracefully to one side, her attention partially focused on Xiao Yan.
Seeing that everyone was fighting to the bitter end, Xiao Xun'er looked at Shi Han and slowly approached as the golden flames rose.
As Shi Han watched Xiao Xun'er approach him, his eyes were filled with struggle and hesitation.
Finally, just as Xiao Xun'er was about to attack, Shi Han sighed and said, "We'll give you the big one; there's no need for us to fight."
Xiao Xun'er, who had just finished gathering her strength, was also taken aback and did not understand what Shi Han meant.
Lion Fierce looked at Xiao Xun'er with a mixture of fear and hatred, but still patiently explained, "I admit defeat. You can go directly to the large spiritual spring later."
Lion Feared Xiao Xun'er from the bottom of his heart. When Xu Yingwu and Xiao Xun'er came to his door, Xiao Xun'er suppressed him at every turn and beat him up for half an hour.
The secret to Xiao Xun'er's ability to remain high on the leaderboard is something that Lu Zhi and the others still don't understand. They wonder why this girl who always follows Xiao Yan has such terrifying strength.
Although Lion Fierce had improved during this time, he had no chance last time and was thoroughly beaten up. Lion Fierce had no intention of using his own body to test Xiao Xun'er's strength, so he simply gave the spot to Xiao Xun'er.
Although Xiao Xun'er found it strange to look at Shi Han, she was very happy to be able to watch Xiao Yan fight without having to lift a finger. She nodded slightly and stopped paying attention to Shi Han.
Seeing Xiao Xun'er leave, Shi Han secretly breathed a sigh of relief; he was genuinely afraid of Xiao Xun'er.
Meanwhile, Xiao Yan and Lu Zhi also clashed head-on.
