In the Arena, two teams stood at a distance from each other, their eyes filled with a flickering murderous intent as they gazed at one another.
"Brother Aotian, I will rely on you this time," Xiao Ya said softly to Aotian.
"Hehe, Captain Xiao is too polite. I am friends with Senior Tan and Hong'er. When friends are in trouble, how can I stand by and do nothing?" Aotian replied with a smile.
"Haha, in that case, just call me Uncle Xiao. Calling me Captain Xiao feels too formal," Xiao Ya laughed heartily.
"Uncle Xiao, then I feel like I'm reaching too high. Just call me Aotian!"
"Big brother, why haven't I seen big sister?" Xiao Hong'er asked, her large innocent eyes scanning the crowd as if searching for Aoyan.
"Your big sister has something to attend to, so she couldn't come. Next time, I'll definitely bring her to see Hong'er!"
Aotian seemed particularly fond of the innocent and lively Loli, gently patting her head as he spoke softly.
"Mm! Big brother, you must bring big sister to see me!"
"Haha, alright..."
At that moment, Tan Qianqiu sighed and said, "Young Hero, I didn't expect that just a few months have passed and you've already broken through to the innate level. Such a terrifying cultivation speed truly makes this old man feel embarrassed."
Aotian smiled and replied, "It's just luck, just luck!"
"There is no such thing as luck in this world. However, I hope Young Hero can help stop that Amusement later!" Tan Qianqiu said as he cupped his hands toward Aotian.
Aotian pondered for a moment and slowly shook his head. Instantly, the atmosphere around them turned icy cold.
Could it be that this kid is just playing us Wolf Fang Adventure Team?!
As they thought about this, Xiao Ya and the others looked at Aotian with cold flashes in their eyes.
Tan Qianqiu also had a grim expression. If Aotian did not help fend off Amusement, then they would undoubtedly lose this gamble!
“Big brother, why aren’t you participating in the competition? Don’t you want to protect Hong'er anymore?”
Although Xiao Hong'er was young, it did not mean she was unaware of the world. Therefore, upon seeing Aotian shake his head, her eyes immediately turned red, and tears streamed down her tender face, making her look truly pitiful.
“Uh…”
Seeing the tears continuously falling from Xiao Hong'er, Aotian felt as if his heart was being pricked by needles, and he quickly said:
“Hong'er, what are you thinking! How could big brother not protect Hong'er? Big brother thinks it's better to deal with that Rogue's wife, Shangguan Jin.”
Upon hearing Aotian's words, the members of the Wolf Fang Adventure Team stared at him in shock.
Xiao Hong'er also stopped crying and smiled, saying:
“Really? Big brother?”
“Really! Anyone who dares to bully Hong'er is a big bad guy. Big brother will definitely help Hong'er chase those bad guys away!”
“Aotian, what are you saying? You want to fight Shangguan Jin?” Xiao Ya said incredulously.
“Uh, is that not okay?” Aotian asked with some confusion.
“Hehe, proud Young Hero, that Shangguan Jin has an Innate Fivefold cultivation level. With your current strength, I’m afraid…” Tan Qianqiu said hesitantly.
Aotian immediately understood what they were worried about. So he shouted at Tan Qianqiu:
“Senior Tan, watch out!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Aotian stepped forward with one foot towards Tan Qianqiu. The Transformation Technique surged within him and quickly gathered at the tip of his index finger, which was enveloped in a layer of gold as he pointed it towards Tan Qianqiu.
Tan Qianqiu was also excited and seemed eager to test Aotian's true strength.
He gathered all the Mystical Energy within him into a single fingertip and suddenly collided it with Aotian's index finger.
Both seemed to have concentrated their power to the utmost, resulting in no residual waves spreading out. Only after the clash did Aotian and Tan Qianqiu take several steps back to dissipate each other's force.
Instantly, the members of the Wolf Fang Adventure Team looked at Aotian in shock, seemingly not expecting that this young man could truly match Tan Qianqiu evenly.
Tan Qianqiu's heart was also stirred with tumultuous waves. From the earlier clash of fingers, he sensed that the opponent's strength was indeed not as robust as his own. However, that power was extremely peculiar; it seemed that the opponent's Mystical Energy could devour his own Mystical Energy...
As soon as this thought emerged, Tan Qianqiu suppressed it. He had never heard of Mystical Energy being able to consume another Mystical Energy, so he attributed it to "the delusions of age."
After Aotian steadied himself, he cupped his hands toward Tan Qianqiu and said:
"Senior Tan's strength is indeed terrifying; I was overly arrogant before."
Tan Qianqiu smiled wryly, gazing deeply at Aotian before saying:
"Young Hero Aotian's strength is already on par with this old man; even against Shangguan Jin, you may not necessarily lose!"
Upon hearing Tan Qianqiu's words, the members of the Wolf Fang Adventure Team were immediately in an uproar.
Xiao Ya was slightly taken aback by Tan Qianqiu's statement and then said with great interest:
"Haha, it seems this gamble truly favors our Wolf Fang Adventure Team. In that case, let Aotian test that woman's strength against Shangguan Jin..."
"I'll personally take charge of this first match; Rogue, come out!"
Xiao Ya kicked off the ground and soared like an eagle to the center of the Arena, her gaze piercing like an arrow straight at Rogue from the Breaking Army Adventure Team.
Rogue narrowed his eyes, revealing no concealment of his chilling killing intent.
In an instant, Rogue's figure flickered and appeared about three meters away from Xiao Ya. Both locked their gazes tightly on each other.
The previously noisy discussions around the Arena began to quiet down. Everyone's gaze was fixed intently on the two figures on the stage.
"Whoosh"
The two figures charged towards each other simultaneously, and along the way, two powerful waves of Mystical Energy surged from their bodies, enveloping each other.
"Bang bang bang"
Xiao Ya and Rogue unleashed their attacks like a torrential storm, targeting each other's vital points.
Fists, fingers, legs, and palms rolled over the Arena in a flurry. Cheers and gasps erupted from the audience below.
"Boom"
With a loud crash, both fighters were sent flying backward.
At this moment, Xiao Ya's clothes were torn, revealing patches of her bronze skin, with traces of blood on her face. On the other side, Rogue looked no better; his face was as pale as paper, breathing erratic, clearly having taken some impact from Xiao Ya's strike.
Wiping the blood from her face with one hand, Xiao Ya sneered:
"We've fought more than ten times; we know each other's techniques inside out. How about we settle this with one final move?"
Rogue grinned wickedly:
"That's exactly what I had in mind!"
With that, powerful waves of Mystical Energy began to gather within both of them, clearly preparing for an extremely terrifying attack...
"Breaking Army Fist!"
"Dragon-Tiger Destruction Palm!"
The two shouts echoed simultaneously throughout the Arena.
Suddenly, Rogue launched a powerful punch towards Xiao Ya. To the spectators, it seemed as if Rogue's Mystical Energy transformed into a fierce weapon, filled with the intent to kill.
Xiao Ya's lethal move was clearly extraordinary as well. That seemingly simple palm strike completely obliterated Rogue's Mystical Energy. In the ears of the crowd, there was a faint sound of Dragon's Roar, echoing and shaking their hearts.
The two powerful attacks collided simultaneously, raising a cloud of dust that obscured everyone's view.
Members of the Breaking Army Adventure Team and Wolf Fang Adventure Team looked on with tense expressions at the dust-filled area, praying for their captain's safe return. After all, if anything happened to their captain, their Adventure Team's name would be replaced by others.
"Shh..."
In the midst of everyone's gaze, two figures flew out from the swirling dust, blood spraying into the air. They then landed simultaneously, causing the Arena's surface to shake violently.
Both sides were injured?!
In the Arena, those four words rose simultaneously in everyone's minds...
