Chapter 221: The Power of Xun'er, The Fall of the Sea God Trident
The fierce collision caused a deafening explosion, shattering the stone platform beneath their feet. Debris flew in all directions, and even the sturdy stone slabs cracked like fragile tofu, reduced to mere fragments. The intense battle aura released by both fighters disintegrated the airborne debris upon contact, a sight so terrifying that it sent chills down the spines of onlookers.
Fu Ao's strength was undeniable. As a formidable Dou Ling ranked in the top 80 of the Strong Ranking, he was undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with. However, the fact that his powerful attacks were being countered so effortlessly by this delicate looking girl left the audience stunned.
The moment their battle began, all other fights in the arena halted. Even those engaged in their own duels stopped mid action to witness the spectacle. It wasn't every day that they saw a beautiful young woman going head to head with a Dou Ling powerhouse.
All eyes were locked on Xiao Xun'er.
Even Hu Jia, who had expected Xun'er to be strong, was shocked beyond words.
"How can she be this powerful?"
"Is she really a freshman?"
"This isn't arrogance… this is pure strength!"
Meanwhile, cold sweat trickled down Fu Ao's forehead.
The moment he locked eyes with Xun'er, he felt an overwhelming sense of fear. The golden flames in her gaze seemed to burn straight into his soul, suffocating him.
Fu Ao gritted his teeth.
He couldn't let this continue. He needed to end this fight quickly.
If this dragged on… he would lose.
"Sea God Trident!"
With a roar, Fu Ao spun his blue trident, channeling all his Dou Qi into it. In an instant, it transformed into a colossal blue energy whale, charging fiercely toward Xun'er.
Wu Tian smirked.
This guy was done for.
Did Fu Ao really think his pathetic water attributed attack could stand against Xun'er's Golden Emperor Flame?
How naive.
Xun'er elegantly raised both hands, her delicate fingers moving gracefully like a blooming lotus.
The moment the trident attack reached her, she swiftly waved her hands forward.
Boom!
A surging wave of golden Dou Qi erupted from her palms.
Before Fu Ao could even react, his so called Sea God Trident shattered into dust, disappearing without a trace.
"Pfft !"
Blood sprayed from Fu Ao's mouth as he was blasted off the platform.
His body flew through the air, tracing a beautiful arc before crashing to the ground below. His eyes rolled back, and he immediately fainted on the spot.
Xun'er calmly reached out and retrieved a golden glow that had returned to her palm, as if nothing had happened.
The entire sequence had unfolded in the blink of an eye.
The audience, still reeling from the intense clash of energy, had barely recovered before Fu Ao was already lying unconscious.
His prized weapon had been obliterated.
And this girl what kind of monster was she?
Despite releasing her Dou Qi, no one could gauge her true strength.
Fu Ao, ranked within the top 80, had been instantly defeated.
The members of Bai Gang were completely dumbfounded.
Was this girl… even stronger than Wu Hao?
Just how many monsters did Ri Yan Alliance have?
At first, they thought Wu Tian was the only anomaly.
But now it seemed that his presence had merely overshadowed the others.
These people weren't weak they had simply chosen not to reveal their true strength.
And now?
They were baring their fangs.
Ri Yan Alliance was no longer just some random new faction.
It had firmly secured its position among the top tier powers.
Some individuals who had previously mocked them shut their mouths.
They realized that picking a fight with Ri Yan Alliance would be no different from self destruction.
Xun'er ignored the stunned gazes around her.
Her golden eyes only sought one person
Wu Tian.
She looked up at him, stuck out her tongue playfully, and gave him a cheeky, proud smile.
The sight was devastatingly charming.
The once elegant and untouchable goddess now radiated the aura of an adorable girl next door.
She was completely different from the powerful warrior who had just crushed Fu Ao.
The audience was filled with resentment.
"How the hell is Wu Tian so lucky?"
"He has a ridiculously strong girlfriend, and she's this cute?"
"This is unfair!"
Wu Tian smiled at Xun'er and motioned for her to come back.
But Xun'er shook her head playfully, her hands behind her back.
No.
She wasn't done yet.
She needed to prove herself to show her true strength.
Ever since Zi Yan appeared, she had felt a sense of crisis.
For the first time, she felt threatened in her position as Wu Tian's most trusted woman.
Zi Yan was Strong Ranking #1.
And now, she seemed inseparable from Wu Tian.
If Zi Yan was always by his side, then Xun'er had to be there too.
And to do that she needed overwhelming strength.
These so called top students of the Inner Academy?
They would be nothing but stepping stones for her.
Wu Tian watched her, quickly realizing what she was doing.
She's jealous… of a baby dragon?
Xun'er, isn't this a little too early?
Zi Yan might be ancient, but she was still in her child form.
But oh well.
If Xun'er wanted to make a statement, then let her.
At least it would show these so called "geniuses" what a real genius looked like.
Besides, there were no rules against using secret arts or powerful techniques in the arena.
The students of Bai Gang were about to suffer miserably.
Wu Tian had considered stopping her…
But then he shrugged.
Let her do as she pleased.
Xun'er smiled in delight, noticing Wu Tian's silent approval.
For years, she had never used her full strength.
But now, it was time to unleash her true power.
She would prove her worth just like Qing Lin, who protected the Snake Tribe for Wu Tian.
If Qing Lin could do it, so could she.
Her battlefield was this Inner Academy.
Xun'er turned to Bai Gang's side, her expression turning cold.
"Bai Gang's leader, Bai Cheng, do you dare face me?"
Bai Cheng's expression darkened.
A mere girl was challenging him?
This was humiliating.
If Wu Tian refused to fight and sent a woman instead, then Bai Cheng had no reason to hold back.
With a sneer, he leaped onto the platform, his hands behind his back.
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
"If Wu Tian is too much of a coward to protect his woman, then don't blame me for teaching you a lesson."
Xun'er's lips curved into a faint smirk, her golden eyes flashing.
"If you want to bully me, then come try."
The arena fell into absolute silence.
A storm was brewing.
