"How is this possible? Senior Aotian is actually this strong?!"
"This is terrifying! The first and second on the Inner Courtyard Rankings were defeated by Senior Aotian in one blow?!"
"Oh my gosh! Just how terrifying is Senior Aotian's strength?!"
The audience was in an uproar, while the three on stage were also unsettled.
Especially Luo Yiqiang and Han Kong. Although they knew that Aotian's strength was formidable, they never expected it to be to this extent.
Both of them were ranked first and second on the Inner Courtyard Rankings, yet they had both suffered defeats at the hands of Aotian, and not just once but twice in a row. This severely wounded their pride.
In particular, Aotian's strike had inflicted significant injuries on both of them. This led them to simultaneously consider joining forces against Aotian.
As this thought crossed their minds, Luo Yiqiang and Han Kong exchanged glances, recognizing the same intention in each other's eyes.
Join forces!
Now both of them had sustained considerable injuries from Aotian's attacks. Aotian's advantage was evident at this moment.
If they continued to attack each other in a free-for-all, it was highly likely that Aotian would emerge victorious. After all, Aotian had not sustained any serious injuries so far.
Thus, only by joining forces as the first and second on the Inner Courtyard Rankings could they hope to turn the tide.
Deciding quickly, the two of them mobilized their Mystical Energy and launched an attack towards Aotian.
At that moment, Aotian did not feel joy from his advantage because he knew that his previous strike had effectively formed an alliance between Luo Yiqiang and Han Kong.
Sure enough, when he saw the two attacking him, he felt a bit helpless but had no choice but to brace himself and "meet" their assault head-on.
Aotian was unaware of the immense shock his actions had caused among the crowd below.
Who are Luo Yiqiang and Han Kong? To put it bluntly, they are considered invincible figures among the Inner Academy Students, and in the younger generation of Fengyun Nation, they are undoubtedly leaders.
These two must be quite proud. However, the fact that they have joined forces against Aotian indicates what?
It indicates that in the eyes of these "invincible individuals," Aotian's strength has posed a significant threat to them, which is why they have been forced to team up.
Moreover, having suffered losses at the hands of Aotian twice only adds to the astonishment of the onlookers.
On the high platform, everyone exchanged glances. The names of Luo Yiqiang and Han Kong were known even to these "big shots." But now, the fact that these two must join forces to remain undefeated against Aotian has left them with much surprise.
To be valued by the higher-ups of Xuantian Academy, and to have Xuantian Academy step in to support Aojia, was initially seen as an overreaction. But now they understand that Aotian is indeed worthy of such investment from Xuantian Academy!
He is worth this price!
Some individuals even began to contemplate poaching Aotian for their own sects. Of course, there were also factions that believed Aotian's potential was too great and would pose a threat in the future, thus he must be eliminated!
The thoughts of those in the Duel Arena varied greatly, while Aotian found himself in a tough battle.
The strength of Luo Yiqiang and Han Kong was already formidable. Although they had sustained some injuries, it did not negate their combat capabilities.
When they teamed up, their fighting power became extraordinarily terrifying. Therefore, from the very beginning, Aotian had not gained even a slight advantage.
One could see Luo Yiqiang and his partner coordinating their attacks; one struck towards Aotian's left side while the other attacked from the right.
Under their relentless assault, Aotian was forced to retreat step by step. If it weren't for their injuries preventing them from exerting their full strength, it's likely that Aotian would have already been defeated.
Suddenly, Aotian executed a Whirlwind kick, forcing both Luo Yiqiang and Han Kong to take several steps back due to the strong wind generated.
Aotian took advantage of the opening, pushing off the ground with his toes and retreating swiftly, escaping the attack range of the two.
Luo Yiqiang and his companion stepped back a few paces and, after steadying themselves, did not immediately launch another attack on Aotian. Instead, there was a rare seriousness in their eyes.
Most people would have already been defeated under their combined assault, yet Aotian managed to hold on and even counterattack from time to time. This made them realize that Aotian was far more formidable than they had imagined.
"Don't engage him in close combat; his physical strength is terrifying. It will be difficult to defeat him up close," Luo Yiqiang said gravely to Han Kong beside him.
"You're right. Let's use our martial arts power to crush him in one go!" Han Kong nodded and said with a hint of excitement in his voice.
As soon as Han Kong finished speaking, both of them simultaneously formed intricate hand seals. With the formation of these seals, the Heaven and Earth Profound Qi on the Dueling Platform began to show signs of agitation.
Clearly, they did not intend to drag this out with Aotian, aiming instead to defeat him decisively.
Seeing this, Aotian understood that the two were about to unleash their martial arts. This made his heart sink slightly. He knew that the upcoming battle might be the real main event and also the most dangerous.
However, fear was not a word in Aotian's vocabulary. Thus, he continued to wave his hands, forming seals filled with a sense of destruction.
At the same time, Aotian's eyes seemed to transform into bottomless black holes, causing anyone who met his gaze to feel a sense of dread.
Luo Yiqiang and his companion could clearly sense that the dangerous aura emanating from Aotian was more than ten times stronger than before!
Although Aotian felt somewhat eerie at this moment, they had no choice but to act. Therefore, Luo Yiqiang and his companion began forming complex hand seals at an even faster pace.
Suddenly, two loud shouts erupted from Luo Yiqiang and Han Kong:
"Mountain-Shaking Fist!"
"Collapse Heavenly Seal!"
Before the sound faded, a massive Earth-Colored Fist suddenly appeared in the air. The fist was as large as a mountain, and one punch seemed capable of shattering a small hill.
Beside the giant fist was a palm-sized seal, covered in intricate and mysterious runes that emanated an aura of destruction.
Though small, the seal possessed considerable power, seemingly able to withstand even the heavens.
"These two martial arts have already reached a high-grade level; it will be difficult for Aotian to resist," said Little Black with some concern from the high platform.
The Grand Elder remained calm and composed, stating lightly, "At this point, there is no turning back. We can only hope that the little fellow has some shocking trump card."
Little Black looked at the Grand Elder in front of him, feeling somewhat puzzled. Even now, the Grand Elder still appeared to have everything under control, which left Little Black quite astonished.
Could it be that even if Luo Yiqiang and the others unleashed their ultimate moves, they still could not do anything to Aotian?
