Chapter 79 - 79 76 Disadvantaged Duel

79: Chapter 76: Disadvantaged Duel 79: Chapter 76: Disadvantaged Duel “Jun Wuming and Xie Cangsheng joined forces, forming a fearsome duo of Seventh Grade Martial Masters. Together with Jun Kui and others, their ranks included two Sixth Grade Martial Masters and three Fifth Grade Martial Masters. Such a lineup was terrifying, and now, they were all out to confront just him alone—an ordinary person wouldn’t even have the courage to fight them.” “This is probably going to be a fierce battle.” “Ye Xuan was confident he could defeat either Jun Wuming or Xie Cangsheng alone, but now that they stood together, the outcome was uncertain.” “At that time, he had too many concerns. He should have killed Xie Cangsheng at the start to eliminate future troubles.” “However, he considered the likely conflict between the Jun and Xie families and the complications killing Xie Cangsheng could bring, so he had stayed his hand. Now, vengeance came swiftly.” “Xie Cangsheng’s strength wasn’t a concern, but from Jun Wuming, Ye Xuan sensed a dangerous aura—not an objective presence, but his subjective intuition signaling a potentially dangerous individual.” “No need for idle talk with him, this kid is cunning. This time, everyone charge at once; don’t give him any chance! Attack!” Xie Cangsheng, bearing a deep-seated hatred for Ye Xuan from being previously outsmarted by him, vowed not to make the same mistake twice. With a wave of his hand, he led the young elites of the Xie family in a fierce attack behind Ye Xuan. On the other side, Jun Wuming frowned slightly, apparently disdainful of this mass attack method, but then quickly decided that the urgency was to kill Ye Xuan regardless of the process. “Make your move!” He commanded in a low shout, leading the charge himself with Jun Kui and Wuyan following closely, their expressions fierce. In the face of such a united assault, even if Ye Xuan had extraordinary abilities, he was bound to succumb. “Think overwhelming numbers will give you an advantage? You’ve miscalculated.” Facing the assault from both the Jun and Xie families, Ye Xuan’s eyes became fiercely sharp.

In that instant, his full power finally burst forth like a flood and volcanic eruption. His long, dark hair fluttering, his robe billowed from the force of his Qi. Ye Xuan appeared possessed, his aura rising to an unprecedented height—knowing the situation he was in, he knew he had to fight with all his might or else face certain death today. “Back off!” Gathering his True Qi, when the elites of both families were within just five steps, Ye Xuan suddenly bellowed and struck out in both directions. In that moment, the very ground under his feet cracked and shattered, stones swept up into a storm. The force of the palm hit was massive, as if nearly a thousand wild horses were stampeding, the power shockingly immense. Heavenly Water Palm Skill, fourth form—Mountain Collapsing, Sea Overturning! “Boom! Boom! Boom!” As the force of the palm skill emitted, true to its name—overturning mountains and decimating all in its path—in an instant continuous grunts were heard. The elites attacking Ye Xuan were immediately impacted by the terrifying wide-range palm force, each of them sent flying and vomiting blood, staining the sky. Seven young elites were blown away by Ye Xuan’s terrifying palm, leaving only Jun Wuming and Xie Cangsheng to withstand it; the others were all knocked back without exception. “How is this possible?” Both Jun Wuming and Xie Cangsheng’s complexions changed, looking visibly upset, clearly not expecting Ye Xuan to have held back his real strength until now. Even Jun Wuming felt slightly inferior to Ye Xuan’s current momentum! Moreover, no one expected Ye Xuan to have such a move—his palm strike created a devastating area effect, instantly defeating the other five and catching them completely off guard. “Hmph, such a wide-ranged move must drain a lot of True Qi, even if you managed to push the others back, the result is still the same, and I want to see how you can fight against the two of us!” Xie Cangsheng’s face darkened and he burst forward, his True Qi exploding out as he threw a punch. On his fist was a glove with five slender, sharp blades, piercing through the air towards Ye Xuan’s throat like lightning. Concentrated True Qi swirled around the glove’s blades, quickly forming tiny whirlwinds—this strike could even penetrate solid iron. Before, when he had fought against Ye Xuan, his full strength had not come into play before Ye Xuan had broken his hand bones. It had cost him quite a bit to heal over the past few days. This time, he held nothing back nor dared to reserve any strength. As soon as he made his move, he exerted his full power. Clang! On the other side, Jun Wuming was not a bit slower, coordinating with Xie Cangsheng’s attack, he drew the black saber from his waist. The astonishing murderous aura seemed to merge entirely into the light of the saber as he struck at Ye Xuan. “Break for me!” Ye Xuan, undisturbed by the imminent danger, with eyes like torches, unsheathed the Star-cutting Saber from his back. As soon as the saber light appeared, it compressed and stretched infinitely, finally forming a long saber about a fathom in length, flashing with lightning. The thunderous saber heavily chopped down, targeting the weak spots in the two attacks. Hissss! Like the sound of ripping fabric, the power of the thunderous saber was so formidable that it shattered the combined attack of Jun Wuming and Xie Cangsheng in one strike. “Damn it!” Red light flared in Xie Cangsheng’s eyes. It was their first joint attack, and inevitably there were some flaws. Unexpectedly, Ye Xuan’s move was so tricky, hitting the weak points with unerring accuracy, causing their first coordinated strike to be directly unraveled by Ye Xuan. “He really is a tough one. Without pulling an actual fight, today I fear it’s genuinely difficult to kill you!” Watching Ye Xuan shatter their combined attack with a single strike, a fierce killing intent flickered in Jun Wuming’s eyes as if he had lost all patience. His True Qi surged and exploded once again. This time, even the corners of his eyes turned a sinister black, as if he had demonized himself, and his aura exploded at the same time. Seeing this, Ye Xuan’s expression also subtly changed. The surged aura of the opponent was already not inferior to his in full-force state. This Jun Wuming truly was the most troublesome guy among these people. Noticing Jun Wuming’s aura climbing again, Xie Cangsheng’s expression also changed. Even he hadn’t known that Jun Wuming’s strength had already reached such a level. Among the three top contenders for the championship, although he and Jun Wuming were both included, it now seemed that Jun Wuming was significantly stronger than him. But at this moment, even if he felt some jealousy, it was not the time to show it. Instead, he felt a surge of exhilaration. The stronger Jun Wuming was, the higher their chances of killing Ye Xuan. Compared to pinning Ye Xuan to death, the title of the trial’s champion seemed trivial. Just securing a position in the top three was enough. “Ye Xuan, today you’re dead for sure!” Xie Cangsheng’s confidence swelled once again, the gloom from having their joint attack broken by Ye Xuan immediately dispelled. His True Qi crackled and gathered at his fist, creating fierce sparks, preparing for the next wave of attack. “Double-headed, block him!” Seeing the two trying to form a pincer attack again, Ye Xuan also shouted lowly. As his words fell, the ready Two-headed Demon Tiger immediately rushed out like lightning, with its sharp beast claws lunging fiercely at Xie Cangsheng. “Demon spawn, seeking death!” Seeing the Two-headed Demon Tiger pounce toward him, Xie Cangsheng sneered and met it with a punch. Although he admitted that he was no match for Ye Xuan, he thought it too belittling for Ye Xuan to try stopping him with just a demon beast. Boom! However, after the collision, Xie Cangsheng did not gain a clear advantage. At least from the current situation, he wouldn’t be able to end the battle quickly. But the Two-headed Demon Tiger had indeed just advanced to the late Second Rank not long ago. Handling a Seventh Grade Martial Master like Xie Cangsheng was still somewhat forced and wouldn’t last long. Ye Xuan had to defeat Jun Wuming before that, otherwise, once the two formed a pincer attack again, he wouldn’t have any more assistance, and his situation would become extremely difficult. “Even without Xie Cangsheng’s help, facing me as I am now, do you think you have a chance? These are nothing but the throes of the dying.” Jun Wuming sneered, acknowledging that even if Ye Xuan could contend with him in terms of aura, the gap in their cultivation was quite apparent. There were two minor grades difference, and even if it was left one-on-one, the idea of Ye Xuan defeating him was nothing but a fool’s dream. “How can I know if there’s a chance without trying?” Ye Xuan held his breath, staring at Jun Wuming in front of him. His True Qi surged rapidly around him. Life or death, success or failure, all hinged on this one move.
