Being toyed with by someone as insignificant as Bai Jing, Leng Wei's anger was understandable. Without any warning, he let out a cold laugh and made a feint with his body. With a swift motion of his right hand, he grasped the air, shattering the Stone Wall that stood between him and Bai Jing as if it were made of tofu. Fiery True Qi surged from his palm, transforming into a massive fire hand Phantom.
This fire hand Phantom was nearly ten feet in size, flames raging above and below, resembling the hand of a giant set ablaze. Just a glance at it was enough to instill fear.
"This must be the Cold Family's ancestral skill, Flame Transformation Palm. I didn't expect him to have cultivated it to such a level," someone quickly noted Leng Wei's actions and recognized the origin of his palm technique.
"It is said that when Flame Transformation Palm is cultivated to its peak level, the fiery giant hand created using Fire Element True Essence can be as large as a small mountain, capable of killing countless people with a single strike. Leng Wei is merely an Origin Martial Realm expert; for him to cultivate this technique to such a level is already quite impressive. It seems that kid is in serious trouble. If Rescue Disciple doesn't show up in time, that kid's life may be in danger."
Facing the fire hand Phantom was Bai Jing, who had only reached the First Level of Yuan Martial Realm. Confronted with the full-force attack from a Peak of the Ninth Level of Yuan Martial Realm expert, he could not react at all and could only stare in shock as the enormous fire hand Phantom surged toward him.
"Hmph, only able to bully those weaker than you; what kind of skill is that? If you have guts, come at me!" A figure suddenly appeared before him—it was Leihong, who was closest to him.
With a crackle, Leihong unleashed a heavy punch enveloped in purple lightning, directly countering Leng Wei's Flame Transformation Palm.
Bang!
The clash of electricity and fire generated a massive shockwave that shattered the large wall separating the two. The Defensive Spirit Pattern on the wall lost its effectiveness and could not withstand the full-force attacks from two late-stage Origin Martial Realm experts. In an instant, it crumbled into dust.
Bai Jing retreated swiftly with Wang Qin's assistance, while other nearby members of the Demon Squad hurriedly moved back to avoid the residual shockwaves.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Leng Wei did not expect that Leihong, merely at the Eighth Layer of Yuan Martial Realm, would stand up to his palm strike head-on. Although he hadn't used his full strength for this attack, being blocked by someone clearly much weaker made him feel somewhat embarrassed.
Originally intending to intimidate the Demon Squad, he was surprised to find that there was actually a formidable character among them besides the legendary captain Zhou Jun.
As the dust settled, Leihong grinned widely.
"What Flame Transformation Palm? Turns out it's nothing special; it seems it's still quite inferior to my Thunder Fist!"
The level of Thunder Fist naturally cannot compare to Leng Wei's family heirloom, Flame Transformation Palm. However, in terms of raw power and dominance, Fire Elemental Energy cannot match Thunder Elemental Energy. Moreover, Flame Transformation Palm requires the use of True Essence to unleash its true power. It is a top-tier Martial Technique of the Xuan rank, and Leng Wei can only exert about ten percent of its power, putting him at a disadvantage.
When the first strike was blocked, Leng Wei immediately charged forward, engaging in close combat with Leihong. The two exchanged blows continuously, with the explosive sounds of their clashes echoing like thunder, leaving the onlookers astonished.
"How is this possible? Isn't Leihong only at the Eighth Layer of Yuan Martial Realm? How can he match Young Master Leng blow for blow?"
"Attribute suppression is one aspect; after all, Thunder Elemental Energy naturally counters Fire Elemental Energy. However, the most important reason is that Leng Wei is somewhat unfamiliar with Flame Transformation Palm and has not fully grasped it. This top-tier palm technique is not suitable for battles at the Origin Martial Realm level. Without True Essence, the fire palm cannot solidify, significantly reducing its power. In contrast, Leihong, although using only a mid-level Xuan rank Martial Technique, has trained to such a high degree of proficiency that he can exert over a hundred percent of its power!"
The crowd gathered outside the base consisted of individuals who had survived the trial and were just one step away from becoming official Outer Sect Disciples of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect. Most of them were well-informed and had considerable talent in martial arts, so they quickly recognized the reasons behind the battle dynamics.
When warriors with clearly different levels of cultivation can fight evenly, it is influenced not only by their innate talents and the Martial Techniques and Supreme Techniques they use but also by their combat experience.
Leihong has always been combative. Before joining the Heavenly Mechanism Sect, he frequently challenged experts of similar levels to gain experience and continuously improve himself.
Leng Wei possesses considerable talent; however, due to his noble status within his family, he rarely participates in real combat. In terms of fighting experience alone, Leng Wei is several tiers below Leihong.
After their final exchange of fists and palms, both retreated to their respective teams behind what remained of the Stone Wall.
"Your fist technique is good, but I am not proficient with Flame Transformation Palm. I was merely testing you earlier. Once I draw my weapon and use my well-practiced Martial Technique, you will undoubtedly lose!" Leng Wei said grimly.
"Is that all you can do—talk big?" Leihong replied mockingly. Seeing his opponent draw a long sword from his waist, he unhesitatingly gripped the long knife strapped to his back.
"Arrogant! Today you will learn that the gap between us is beyond your imagination!"
In a fit of rage, Leng Wei flicked his wrist, unleashing hundreds of Sword Lights from his long sword. Each Sword Light was entwined with raging flames and covered in dense Fire Elemental Energy, instantly sealing off Leihong's space and forcing him to clash head-on!
"The Forged Fire Sword Technique is a high-level Xuan rank Martial Technique. It is said that this sword technique requires extremely high Vital Energy from its user. Only those who cultivate Fire Element Supreme Technique and possess exceptionally rich Fire Elemental Energy can master this sword technique. When perfected, it can unleash hundreds of Sword Lights in an instant. Each Sword Light can be enveloped in Fire Elemental Energy, greatly increasing its power and solving the problem of diminished strength due to excessive Sword Lights. Furthermore, with as many as a hundred Sword Lights, it often blocks an opponent's retreat in advance, leaving them no choice but to confront this move head-on without any chance to evade," one of Leng Wei's friends said proudly. In his view, as long as Leng Wei executed this move, Leihong would undoubtedly lose.
"Do you really think Leihong will back down against someone wielding Thunder Elemental Energy? Cold Wind's combat experience is simply too shallow, and he knows too little about Leihong," another Trial Disciple shook his head skeptically, not optimistic about Leng Wei's chances.
Sure enough, facing the incoming Forged Fire Blade, Leihong showed no intention of dodging at all. He simply channeled all the Thunder Elemental Energy within him and raised the Thunder Blade high.
With his tall and robust figure, Leihong's stance with the Thunder Blade resembled that of an ancient war god, exuding an imposing presence. The surging Thunder Elemental Energy around him continuously flowed into the Thunder Blade held aloft, completely engulfing this Mid-Grade Mystic Treasure.
At a glance, it seemed as if the blade in Leihong's hand had suddenly vanished; what was raised above his head was a sword made of countless condensed Thunder Lights.
One force breaks a thousand tricks! Leihong's thought was simple: if the Sword Light scattered, its power would inevitably diminish. As long as he unleashed the full might of his Martial Technique, he could easily break through.
Generally speaking, when ordinary warriors saw a torrential rain of fiery swords sweeping toward them, their first instinct would be to turn and evade. This would allow the multitude of sword lights to take the initiative, attacking from various angles and ultimately shredding the person to pieces.
Due to the vast coverage area, it was nearly impossible to evade. Once one began to dodge, they would inevitably face wave after wave of continuous attacks.
Leng Wei expected Leihong to evade, but Leihong had never considered this option.
“Thunder Blade Technique! Condensed Thunder Slash!”
With a furious shout, Leihong finally moved. The long blade raised above his head descended with an unstoppable momentum, accompanied by swirling purple arcs of lightning that danced amidst the sword lights. The sound of explosions echoed in the void as the Forged Fire Blade approached Leihong, only to be directly shattered into countless sparks that scattered in all directions.
“Did it really just break like that?” Aside from a few Trial Disciples, many could hardly believe what they were witnessing.
In their view, the gap in cultivation would lead to a one-sided battle; although Leihong was powerful, there was no way he could win.
Puff!
Having fully unleashed his sword technique only to be countered in one move, Leng Wei felt a surge of anger. His mind was affected and he was caught off guard by the residual force of the Condensed Thunder Slash, causing him to stumble back and kneel on the ground, spitting out several mouthfuls of blood.
The residual power of Thunder Elemental Energy was extremely formidable. In combat, one had to not only defend against the attack from the Martial Technique itself but also remain vigilant against the dispersed Thunder Elemental Energy being controlled by the opponent and flowing into their own body.
Leng Wei overlooked this point once again. With one move defeated, the entire arena erupted in commotion.
Everyone's gaze towards Leihong instantly changed.
Fighting above one's level was not uncommon in the Divine Martial Continent. In fact, many exceptionally talented martial artists had achieved such feats, but it was their first time witnessing someone defeat an opponent of higher cultivation with a single move.
A solitary round of applause rang out, sounding particularly harsh.
Feng Jia pushed through the crowd and stepped forward, narrowing his eyes into slits. After glancing at Leng Wei, he turned his attention to Leihong.
"Although your cultivation hasn't improved, you have indeed made significant progress in certain aspects," Feng Jia said. He was somewhat familiar with Leihong, having interacted with him a few times.
"So, Feng Shao is also here. Are you interested in our points materials?" Leihong asked, his expression slightly changing. He had nearly exhausted all his Vital Energy to defeat Leng Wei with that one move. Although he had won by a stroke of luck, his Vital Energy was now somewhat muddled and unstable. If Feng Jia were to suddenly attack, he might not be able to withstand it.
He understood very well that although both were at the Peak of the Ninth Level of Yuan Martial Realm, Leng Wei's strength was on a completely different level from Feng Jia's. Leng Wei could be considered a young master, while Feng Jia was a true Martial Arts Genius. Whether it was in the cultivation of Martial Techniques or Supreme Techniques, or in combat experience, he was far beyond what Leng Wei could compare to.
Moreover, Feng Jia was very familiar with him; trying to win by trickery like before would be nearly impossible.
"There are more than just me who want those points materials," Feng Jia said with a half-smile, occasionally glancing at the faces of the Demon Squad members. He was quite curious about this team that seemed to lack combat power but was currently displaying immense confidence under the leadership of that so-called waste.
