I Break through Crazily

Bai Ye blurred into a white afterimage as he rushed toward Tang Yi at incredible speed.

He thrust out his hands, and with a SWISH, his arms were instantly covered in countless green scales.

At the same time, Bai Ye’s eyes turned green. His appearance, so different from his previously handsome features, had become unsettlingly demonic.

CLANG! CLANG!

Bai Ye pulled his hands back, crossing them in front of his chest. As the scales scraped together, they threw off a shower of sparks, as if they were made of steel.

His scaled hands looked incredibly hard, as if they could resist blades and spears without any issue.

"Oh?"

Tang Yi had originally planned to strike immediately, defeat Bai Ye, and end the match quickly.

But seeing Bai Ye’s technique, he suddenly grew curious. He held back, wanting to see what Bai Ye would do next.

In that instant, Bai Ye closed the distance and was right in front of Tang Yi.

WHOOSH!

"Green Demon Hand!"

Spreading his claws, Bai Ye swiped at Tang Yi’s face.

Seeing Bai Ye’s claws coming, Tang Yi used his superior Speed to tilt his head just slightly, easily dodging the strike.

But even though Bai Ye’s claw had missed, his arm trembled slightly, and a faint mist unexpectedly billowed from it.

It looked as if his arm were smoking—it was an incredibly bizarre sight!

Though Tang Yi was curious, he didn’t dare let the green mist enter his body. He twisted and shot backward, putting distance between them.

"What is..."

The citizens of Fengyue City were shocked to see a man’s arm grow green scales and emit smoke.

"Never seen it before, right? This is the Bai Family’s signature move, the Profound Tier Upper Grade Martial Technique, Green Demon Hand! When used, the arm becomes hard as iron and releases a toxic gas. Anyone who inhales just one breath will grow weak and be unable to muster any strength."

A participant from Wind Rain City stood up and declared smugly, as if he were the one performing the Martial Technique, not Bai Ye.

"A Profound Tier Upper Grade Martial Technique!"

"It can even release poison! Heavens, what’s Tang Yi going to do?"

"I don’t care if he wins or loses, I just hope our Tang Yi is okay. *Sob sob...*"

Amidst the shock of the Fengyue City crowd, Bai Ye moved with incredible Speed. The instant Tang Yi pulled back, he was on him, hand thrusting out to grab for Tang Yi’s neck.

Five green afterimages of his hand appeared in the air, all striking at Tang Yi’s neck simultaneously.

A toxic wind emanated from Bai Ye’s arm. The poisonous mist coalesced into a swirling vortex that swept toward Tang Yi along with the afterimages of his hand.

A strange, choking odor from the toxic mist filled the entire arena stage.

It looked as if Tang Yi was about to be caught by Bai Ye’s green arm and assailed by the toxic mist and wind—his life hung in the balance.

And at that moment...

"Interesting."

Tang Yi just chuckled. He pushed his Speed, and his already incredible pace became even faster.

His figure flickered. No matter how terrifying Bai Ye’s arm was, or how potent the toxic mist and wind became, they couldn’t get within an inch of Tang Yi.

The whole time, Tang Yi used his Speed to maintain a perfectly safe distance between them.

And so it went—Bai Ye attacked relentlessly while Tang Yi continuously retreated. For a moment, they seemed to be at a stalemate.

Of course, this was only because Tang Yi had yet to make a move.

Otherwise, the moment Tang Yi attacked, this match would be over.

"Hm?"

Bai Ye frowned. He hadn’t expected that, as a Nine-star Battle Grandmaster, his Speed would be inferior to Tang Yi’s. He couldn’t keep up with his movements at all.

This was not good news for Bai Ye.

’Right now, what does it matter how fierce my attacks are, or how potent my poison mist is?’

’If I can’t even hit Tang Yi, it’s all pointless.’

Thinking of this, Bai Ye made a decision.

"Illusion Spirit Body Technique!"

"Swift!"

Bai Ye’s expression turned ferocious. With a long cry, his body shuddered. His footwork changed, his form flickering in and out of view as his speed suddenly surged, more than doubling his previous pace.

He had actually matched Tang Yi’s Speed and caught up to him, appearing right in his face!

"Tang Yi, you can’t escape this time!" Bai Ye laughed smugly.

Bai Ye had intended to save this move as a trump card for when he reached the West Mansion.

But Tang Yi’s Speed was so great that he had no choice but to use it now.

"A Body Technique Martial Technique!"

Seeing Bai Ye’s movements, a sharp-eyed participant immediately recognized it.

Everyone thought to themselves, ’He really is the number one genius of the younger generation in the Thirty-Six Cities!’

’His repertoire of Techniques is so vast. He even possesses one of the rarest Body Technique Martial Techniques and has mastered it!’

"Oh?"

Tang Yi watched Bai Ye with great interest. He hadn’t expected Bai Ye to actually have a Body Technique Martial Technique.

Among the opponents Tang Yi had faced were Battle Spirits and even Battle Kings. Yet these figures, far stronger than Bai Ye, didn’t possess a Body Technique Martial Technique. The fact that Bai Ye did was truly surprising.

Prompted by curiosity, Tang Yi began to observe it carefully.

After a moment of observation, however, he realized that Bai Ye’s Body Technique Martial Technique was of a rather low grade. The Speed Bonus was a mere one-fifth, and the movements weren’t dreamlike or illusory like his Phantom Step, which made it difficult to tell the real from the fake. Compared to Tang Yi’s Phantom Step, the difference was night and day—like that between a mud turtle and a phoenix.

"So, it’s just a low-grade Body Technique Martial Technique!"

Tang Yi said with a smile.

’Still, it’s not bad for Bai Ye,’ he thought. ’Even if it’s a low-grade Body Technique Martial Technique, it’s still a Body Technique Martial Technique!’

’Most people can only dream of having one!’

Having seen enough, Tang Yi lost all interest in Bai Ye’s Body Technique Martial Technique.

As Bai Ye used his Body Technique Martial Technique to close the distance to Tang Yi, a victorious smile spread across his proud face.

It was as if he believed Tang Yi would be defeated in the very next moment.

When Tang Yi saw that smile, he was filled with contempt.

’You think you’re the only one with a Body Technique Martial Technique? You think I don’t have one?’

Returning a mocking smile, Tang Yi activated Phantom Step. Instantly, his Speed became lightning-fast, and he quickly widened the distance between himself and Bai Ye.

He moved like a gust of wind, weaving across the stage so quickly it was dizzying to watch.

SWISH! SWISH! SWISH!

Once he activated Phantom Step, Tang Yi’s figure became a complete blur. The crowd could barely make out a faint shadow flickering back and forth across the stage.

"This..."

Tang Yi’s sudden burst of speed left Bai Ye completely stunned.

’How is this possible!’

’How can he be so fast!’

’My eyes can’t even follow his movements, let alone catch up to him!’

Several times, Tang Yi deliberately appeared right beside Bai Ye to make a face at him. But just as the infuriated Bai Ye would try to strike, Tang Yi would already be on the other side of the stage. Bai Ye couldn’t even touch a hair on his head, let alone land an attack!

’This kind of Speed... it’s simply unparalleled.’

’How am I supposed to fight this??’
