Outside Xuantian Academy, countless gazes were focused on Aotian.
Xue Haoyang's palm had already struck towards Aotian, and it was about to be revealed whether Aotian could withstand it.
At this moment, Aotian's face was pale. Although Xue Haoyang's strike had not instantly broken through the defense set up by Aotian's Transformation Technique, he was still in a difficult position.
This was because Xue Haoyang's strike appeared extremely domineering and vast. While Aotian's Transformation Technique was filled with assimilative power, the destructive force contained in Xue Haoyang's palm was far more ferocious than the assimilative power.
Before the assimilative power of Transformation Technique could neutralize Xue Haoyang's palm strength, it seemed likely that it would be shattered by that fierce palm force.
Therefore, Aotian could only gather as much of the Transformation Technique from his Dantian as possible and then form a defensive layer on his body using the condensed Transformation Technique to engage in a prolonged battle against Xue Haoyang's palm strength.
While Aotian struggled under the pressure of Xue Haoyang's palm strength, the surrounding martial artists were filled with shock.
Xue Haoyang was the head of Xuantian Academy, and his strength was undoubtedly terrifying. Although he was only using half of his power, it was enough to obliterate an average Half-Step Human Spirit martial artist completely.
However, the clash between him and Aotian had led both to a stalemate. This made everyone realize that this young man could not be judged by common standards.
Seeing that his Ocean-Subduing Palm had been temporarily resisted by Aotian, a hint of appreciation appeared in Xue Haoyang's eyes as he thought to himself:
"There is a reason why the Grand Elder values him. However, as a high-grade martial art, Ocean-Subduing Palm has powers beyond just this..."
At that moment, Aotian felt as if he were submerged in an endless ocean; a heavy pressure enveloped him from all sides, causing his heart to feel slightly suffocated.
The Ocean-Subduing Palm that Xue Haoyang executed was derived from the form of the sea. Once pushed to its limits, it would trap enemies in boundless pressure, making them feel as if they were at the bottom of the ocean, experiencing extreme discomfort throughout their bodies.
Aotian was no exception; every movement felt exceedingly difficult for him now, and mobilizing the Transformation Technique from his Dantian was more than ten times slower than before.
Previously, Aotian could withstand Xue Haoyang's palm strength because he had an endless supply of defense from the Transformation Technique in his Dantian.
However, now that the pressure on Aotian had increased significantly and the speed of mobilizing Transformation Technique had become incredibly slow, this meant that the layer of defense provided by Transformation Technique could not be fully utilized. As a result, Aotian's situation had undoubtedly become much more dangerous.
At that moment, Xue Haoyang's palm force began to slowly penetrate through Aotian's Transformation Technique defense layer, undoubtedly making Aotian's situation even worse.
As time passed, the palm force that seeped through the Transformation Technique defense layer increased, causing Aotian's second layer of defense to completely lose its effectiveness and ultimately dissipate.
At this moment, Aotian could only rely on the defensive power of the Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon Body to withstand Xue Haoyang's palm force.
In the main hall, Aotian had managed to advance from the early stage to the mid-stage of the first transformation of the Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon Body. Although it was only a one-level breakthrough, the energy contained within had surged several times.
Moreover, when Xue Haoyang's palm force broke through Aotian's soul defense and the Transformation Technique defense, it also consumed a significant amount of power. Therefore, Aotian still had a chance to compete with Xue Haoyang using the Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon Body.
Aotian's skin glowed with an icy blue color that gathered together like lightning, firmly protecting his chest.
Xue Haoyang's fierce palm force struck down on Aotian's chest like an enraged divine dragon.
"Boom!"
Immediately, a dull crashing sound echoed through the air.
Then, everyone noticed that Aotian's shirt was directly blown apart, exposing his fair skin to the air.
However, the icy blue beneath his skin acted as if it were the strongest defense in the world, firmly resisting Xue Haoyang's palm force invasion.
Time continued to pass as both energies remained in a stalemate.
Although Xue Haoyang's palm force was strong, it only gathered half of his strength. Thus, as it began to erode Aotian's flesh, it started to show signs of diminishing power.
Meanwhile, the icy blue beneath Aotian's skin shone like a brilliant gem. It conveyed a sense of defiance against any palm force that dared to challenge it!
The surrounding martial artists once again displayed expressions of disbelief. They could see that Xue Haoyang's palm force was beginning to show signs of weakness. This also meant that Aotian had successfully withstood Xue Haoyang's powerful strike.
Xue Haoyang saw this and felt a surge of joy instead of fear. The admiration in his eyes grew even stronger as he exclaimed loudly:
"Aotian, I am going to unleash my final strike. If you can withstand it, then everything the Grand Elder promised you, I can promise as well!"
Aotian was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. He had thought the outcome was already determined, but seeing Xue Haoyang's demeanor suggested he still had a trick up his sleeve, which heightened Aotian's vigilance to its peak.
"Explode!"
Xue Haoyang shouted lightly, and in an instant, the vast palm force exploded like a bomb.
At that moment, the overwhelming palm force was pressed against Aotian's chest. It was too late for him to evade. He could only rely on the formidable defense of the Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon Body to withstand the impact of the palm force explosion.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The power of the exploding palm force was ten times more ferocious than before. The icy blue color on Aotian's chest began to fade into darkness. A muffled groan escaped from his throat.
Aotian staggered back several steps, his gaze dimmed, and the blood and energy within him surged chaotically. His chest was left mangled and bloody from the explosion.
Fortunately, Aotian's Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon Body was extraordinary; he managed to withstand Xue Haoyang's explosive palm force thanks to his strong physical defense.
"Aotian, are you alright?" Snow Qincheng, standing nearby, immediately stepped forward to support Aotian's arm and asked softly.
Aotian unconsciously coughed twice, a trace of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, his face pale as if it were made of paper.
When he heard Snow Qincheng's words, he weakly replied, "I'm fine!"
With that, Aotian turned to Xue Haoyang and respectfully asked:
"Dean, I wonder if I have passed your test?"
Xue Haoyang smiled slightly and then announced loudly:
"From now on, Aotian will be the Core Student of Xuantian Academy!"
As soon as Xue Haoyang finished speaking, the entire venue erupted in an uproar. Everyone looked at Aotian with envy and jealousy.
"Dean, I don't need to be a Core Student; just giving me the title of Inner Academy Student would be enough!" Aotian said lightly.
Xue Haoyang was momentarily taken aback, then waved his right hand, and a green pill the size of a longan shot from his palm to Aotian's front. He said:
"This pill will greatly aid in your healing. As for your request, I grant it! Kong Qiu, you will be responsible for Aotian's admission process from now on!"
With that, Xue Haoyang's figure shot out towards the depths of Xuantian Academy...
