Chapter 35: Chapter 35: The Might of the Di Class Dou Technique

    ?

    When the bystanders learned about the task Lu Xing had accepted in the Outer Academy and understood the situation, they couldn''t help but cast some ''admiring'' glances toward Xiao

    Yan.

    However, there was also a hint of mockery in their eyes.

    It was an annual tradition for new students to challenge the older ones upon entering the Outer Academy. Hence, when Lu Xing and others made the new students sunbathe, it was indeed a tradition.

    Yet, for someone like Xiao Yan to challenge a Xuan Rank class student was unprecedented in many years.

    "Hmph, I don''t know what backwater this bumpkin crawled out of, thinking this is his backyard."

    "Idiots like him often tend to die the most miserable deaths."

    Some first-year students who had come from elsewhere said with a cold snort, "Tch, he really sees himself as some big shot. He ought to take a long hard look in the mirror first!"

    Many new students were quite dissatisfied with Xiao Yan''s unconventional behavior! After all, most new students were hoping to stand out a bit. Now, on the very first day, he had already stolen the spotlight.

    As for the person in question, Xiao Yan, he simply didn''t seem to care at all. He stood on the square with his hands behind his back, his face still wearing his usual confident smile.

    For Xiao Yan to act in such a manner, in the eyes of others, he was either an idiot or even something that did not know how to die!

    Xun Er''s gaze turned cold upon hearing those murmurs. A flicker of golden flame flashed through her autumn water-like eyes. She wished she could step forward and shut those people up herself.

    "If the senior brother is proficient with weapons, you may use one," Xiao Yan kindly reminded.

    Lu Xing''s lips curled into a cold smile. "No need. If I had to use weapons against a student who has just entered the Outer Academy, I wouldn''t know where to put my face. Let''s not waste any more time and get started."

    Xiao Yan nodded, his expression remaining calm. However, his body was already tense as he secretly circulated his Dou Qi. He knew that someone whose cultivation had reached the 6- star Dou Master stage could not be taken lightly, even if he himself possessed many trump cards.

    As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xing''s right foot exerted force and stomped on the ground, leaving a series of long-lasting afterimages.

    "It''s the High Huang agility-type Dou Technique, Remnant Shadow Step. I didn''t expect Senior Lu Xing to have cultivated it to such an extent that it could produce three afterimages!"

    Lu Xing quickly approached Xiao Yan with a thud. The afterimages swung their right fists toward Xiao Yan''s face, chest, and abdomen.

    Even though the afterimages were able to confuse one''s vision, such tricks were child''s play for Xiao Yan, who possessed strong Spiritual Strength.

    He dodged the punch by sidestepping, then grabbed Lu Xing''s right hand and with a gentle push and pull, using the principle of using a minimum amount of force to move a heavy weight, he threw Lu Xing away. Not stopping there, he took advantage of Lu Xing''s unstable center of gravity and kicked him right in the butt!

    "Ah!" Lu Xing fell face-first to the ground, performing a textbook face plant.

    it was impossible for him to dodge with his agility-type Dou Technique. Therefore, he had no choice but to deal with the attack head-on.

    Lu Xing quickly took out a long spear from his storage ring, grabbed it with both hands, and executed a Dou Technique called ''Immovable Spear Mountain!''

    The silver-white spearhead of his spear pierced into the ground, transforming the spear shaft into a shield that merged with the ground to withstand the attack. Not feeling secure enough, pale yellow earth-attribute Dou Qi gradually emerged from his body and eventually formed a thin layer of Dou Qi cloak around him.

    Catalyzing Dou Qi into an energy cloak that adhered to the body was a hallmark of a Dou Master. This kind of energy cloak not only enhanced the user''s defense, speed, and attack, but also amplified the power of Dou Techniques.

    A 6-star Dou Master going so far as to use a weapon and unleash a Dou Qi cloak against an 8- star Dou Practitioner showed just how terrifying Xiao Yan''s Octane Blast was.

    Xiao Yan''s lips curled into a cold smile as he continued to push forward before his strike

    landed squarely on the long spear.

    Eight layers of hidden force burst forth!

    The Octane Blast was a High Xuan Dou Technique and was Xiao Yan''s most proficient

    technique. When fully mastered, the power of the Octane Blast could be compared to the

    weakest Di Class Dou Technique.

    Clang, clang, clang...!

    The terrifying force of the impact caused Lu Xing to retreat step by step, the long spear digging a deep trench in the ground as waves of hidden force transferred to his body. Xiao Yan shook his head inwardly as he saw Lu Xing almost step out of bounds. Although the other party used a weapon to defend himself, the main reason was his own weaker cultivation. If they were at the same cultivation level, the aftermath of the Octane Blast alone could

    shatter the Dou Qi cloak.

    Even Instructor Ruo Ling couldn''t help but change her expression. No matter who it was, no one could deny the strength of Xiao Yan''s attack. He was clearly overpowering his opponent! The fact that Lu Xing had to resort to using a weapon to block this punch spoke volumes. If there hadn''t been a weapon, wouldn''t the opponent have been seriously injured?! Suddenly, a pitch-black giant ruler fell to the ground with a heavy thud, causing the ground to shake. Xiao Yan grabbed the handle of the Heavy Xuan Ruler with both hands, his gaze

    sharpening as he forcefully pulled it out.

    "Senior, since you''re using a weapon, then I won''t be polite."

    There was no trace of respect in his words!

    Buzz! The mysterious patterns on the Heavy Xuan Ruler suddenly lit up, and a terrifying heat

    rose from within the ruler. The temperature of the entire square unexpectedly rose by one

    degree!

    Flame Splitting Tsunami!
