Chapter 513 - 510: Liu Miaomiao Goes to Battle
The match begins!
Jin Tong unleashed his Fire Superpower at the first possible moment. Combined with his Blazing Divine Body, the instantaneous burst of flame from the two abilities stacked together caught many people’s attention.
Even Kong Haozhong showed a hint of surprise in his eyes, but he didn’t hesitate for a moment. He immediately activated his own Superpower and Divine Demon Body and charged straight at Jin Tong.
The two closed the distance rapidly. Just as they were about to clash, Jin Tong swung his Great Saber, swiftly executing the Bloodthirsty Blade Technique, a skill renowned for its ferocity.
To maximize the technique’s power, Jin Tong poured all 100 points of his Blood Qi Power into the single move, as if it were free.
In an instant, the power of his Bloodthirsty Blade Technique multiplied several times over.
With these three abilities stacked, Jin Tong’s Attack Power at that moment reached the level of the Peak of Blood Qi Realm.
Though it was only for a single strike, the Attack Power Jin Tong unleashed shocked not only Kong Haozhong, who was facing him directly, but also the other students watching from below the stage.
Even a few of the instructors looked surprised.
To unleash such an attack with the strength of the Blood Qi Realm Middle Stage was truly impressive.
One could only imagine what terrifying power he could unleash with a full-force burst if his own strength was at the Peak of Blood Qi Realm.
If an opponent of the same rank failed to dodge in time, Jin Tong’s explosive power could potentially kill them in a single blow.
Of course, taking such an extreme path had obvious pros and cons, so it was difficult for anyone to judge whether Jin Tong’s choice was good or bad.
However, one could surmise that the Rules of this battle were advantageous for him.
At this moment, the two finally collided. Jin Tong had only executed his Bloodthirsty Blade Technique at the last second before impact, catching his opponent completely off guard.
But even in this situation, Kong Haozhong remained calm, instantly bolstering his defenses with Blood Qi Power.
BOOM!
Before everyone’s eyes, a ball of fire and a ball of black light crashed violently into each other, followed by a tremendous roar.
The next instant, a figure was sent flying backward, landing directly off the stage.
It was Jin Tong. After he landed, his right arm was twisted at an unnatural angle. It must have been fractured by the immense force of the impact.
The referee waiting at the side seemed to have anticipated this. The moment Jin Tong landed, the referee was at his side, and a ball of green light emanated from his palm, instantly enveloping Jin Tong’s body.
Of course, no one was focused on Jin Tong right now. All eyes were on Kong Haozhong, who was still on the stage.
As the flames dissipated, Kong Haozhong withdrew the black light surrounding him. His upper body was completely unharmed, but his face was grim.
Everyone’s gaze shifted downward, only to discover that on his pant leg, not only had his Combat Suit been burned away, but the skin underneath was also charred black.
Of course, an injury like this wasn’t severe. It could only be considered minor and wouldn’t have much of an impact on his combat effectiveness.
However, this battle wasn’t about determining a winner and a loser.
Another examiner on the stage immediately went over, checked Kong Haozhong’s injury, and quickly gave a score.
With that one exchange, Jin Tong scored a high of 85 points, even surpassing Little Fatty.
In contrast, Kong Haozhong only received 50 points, not even a passing grade.
"Well done." Before long, Jin Tong’s injuries were healed and he returned. Lin Xinghai couldn’t help but praise him.
"I didn’t expect to get such a good score either," Jin Tong said, scratching his head in embarrassment. In truth, this was the best outcome he had hoped for.
And only after trading blows with someone from the Hero Ranking did he understand just how terrifying these top-tier geniuses truly were.
His opponent had managed to perfectly parry his all-out strike even under such urgent circumstances.
However, Jin Tong had a trick up his sleeve. As he unleashed his Bloodthirsty Blade Technique, he simultaneously manipulated his Superpower and Blazing Divine Body to form a Flaming Dagger and stab it toward his opponent’s calf.
In a real life-or-death battle, such a little trick would only serve to distract an opponent, but using it here unexpectedly earned him a high score.
"Have more confidence. Your Cultivation Speed might be a bit slower than theirs, but your combat power is definitely not lacking, especially your instantaneous burst. As for the slow Cultivation speed, that can be completely compensated for with resources," Lin Xinghai encouraged him again before turning his gaze back to the stage.
Soon, all the members of the Xinghai Squad had completed their challenges, leaving only Lin Xinghai and Liu Miaomiao.
"You go on up," Lin Xinghai said to Liu Miaomiao with a smile.
"Okay." Liu Miaomiao nodded obediently and stepped onto the stage.
"I wish to challenge Senior Yan Sha," Liu Miaomiao announced, her voice cool and clear.
"Huh? You’re challenging me? Your specialty isn’t Defense, is it?" Yan Sha, from the other side, quickly mounted the stage. He looked at the Foil in Liu Miaomiao’s hand and asked with some confusion.
The male-to-female ratio at East Sea Academy was severely skewed, at almost ten to one. As a result, most students were quite friendly toward the female students.
This was especially true for a girl as beautiful as Liu Miaomiao. If it weren’t for the presence of so many instructors, he would have been considering whether or not to go easy on her.
"That’s right. My specialty is offense, but my Superpower is rather special—it can ignore Defense. Senior, I look forward to your instruction," Liu Miaomiao said.
Hearing that her Superpower could ignore Defense, a look of astonishment immediately appeared on Yan Sha’s face.
However, he had no chance to ask anything more. As the instructor acting as referee gestured for both of them to get ready, he could only shut his mouth, retreat to the edge of the stage, and prepare himself.
"Three, two, one, begin!"
As the words fell, Liu Miaomiao immediately unleashed her Life Control Superpower.
At the same time, she also activated her Cyan Wood Divine Body. However, unlike most people whose bodies would transform when they activated their Divine Demon Body, when Liu Miaomiao released hers, only the skin of her arms became as white as jade.
A ribbon of faint green light coiled around her, lending her already beautiful face a touch of divinity.
This was a special method for using the Cyan Wood Divine Body that Liu Miaomiao had learned from Wen Qiuying.
It was a unique state that, in comparison, would weaken her Defense Power and Attack Power.
But for girls who valued their appearance, they would rather weaken the power of their Divine Demon Body than undergo some unsightly physical transformation.
Under the dual amplification of her Cyan Wood Divine Body and her Wood Element Affinity Physique, the power of her Life Control Superpower instantly doubled.
