The mans chest tightened. He barely managed to stabilise himself and stop himself from turning anymore rounds in the air. Wiping off the blood from his lips, he turned to face Shen Ying and said, You really are quite capable. He had been negligent. But His face split into a grin once again. As long as she took action, she was bound to lose. Then, his body swayed and he disappeared into thin air.

A moment later.

A power that did not lose to Shen Yings charged at her. It brought with it a sense of destruction. The surroundings turned dark It was almost as if the chaos in the air sensed danger and knew to retreat. The mans voice sounded all around her. Ill let you see what it means to be a true judge.

The moment he finished speaking, the power engulfed Shen Ying and spun around her, closing in by the second. With each round, the power in Shen Yings body lessened by a fraction.

He was absorbing all her powers!

Hahaha Your powers are mine now! Im the only judge here! The mans voice sounded increasingly arrogant. The invisible force tightened around her. There was not much power left in Shen Yings body. Even the light walls around them began to flicker. They looked like they were about to fall apart at any second. Once the power had finished sucking up all her powers, it headed straight for her.

Swoosh. It brushed past her face and left behind a wound. Fresh blood began to flow out of the cut on her cheek.

Shen Ying stared blankly at the man. She subconsciously touched the scar on her face, then looked at the strange red of her fingers. Her eyes narrowed. Her black pupils seemed to have been dyed by the blood on her face there was a tinge of red in them.

The mans attacks were getting increasingly vicious. Shen Ying felt the power around her intensify. She was wiped out of all her powers. She was like an empty oil lamp now. The final layer of defence around her body gave way and shattered to pieces. A crazy energy rushed toward her, threatening to kill her right there and then.

Suddenly, red light burst forth from her body. They resembled thousands of sharp blades, attacking the energy that the man had released against her. The light shone through the energy, looking almost like it was going to pierce through the entire Chaos Void.

Ah The man screamed out in pain. All the energy that he had released began to stir, as if they had been attacked by something. What is this?! Thats impossible. He had already absorbed all of her powers. How could she still have powers? Even then, how could she be powerful enough to defeat someone like him the essence of power!

Before he could figure it out, Shen Ying reached out and grabbed something from the top. There was nothing in her hands, but he felt like he was being restricted. Huge gusts of wind blew past his ear. The sky and earth began to spin. With a loud smash, he was thrown against the light wall.

Ah! The man shouted in pain once again. The power that he had released against Shen Ying seemed to be held back and torn apart by something. This is impossible! How can you subdue me Ah!

Shen Ying grabbed the ball of gases and threw it around in all directions. There was a series of crashes. With each crash, the power that the man just absorbed reduced by a fraction. In just a minute, Shen Ying managed to empty out the mans powers with pure brute force.

The man did not even have time to react. He only felt the power draining ot of his body. But this was what snapped him out of his daze and got him to start defending himself again. Suddenly, the ball of gases dissipated and retreated, forming a human figure once again. But he no longer looked as arrogant as he did before. Instead, he looked especially pitiful.

He glared at Shen Ying intently. There was an uncontrollable fear in his eyes. Ive belittled you. I didnt think that you would have advanced to this stage. He was not even able to absorb her powers at this stage.

He continued looking fearfully at Shen Ying, before turning to scan the light walls around them. Something flicked across his eyes. But there is plenty of time. One day, all the powers in your body will belong to me.

He turned to fly upward. He had miscalculated this time. He did not dare to do anything else. It was best that he retreated first.

Can you run? Shen Ying lowered her gaze. The light walls lit up once again, suddenly blocking the mans way.

The man laughed mirthlessly. He raised his hand and shot a beam of energy toward her. Hmph, how dare you try and stop- Before he could finish speaking, there was a loud crash. The beam of energy he just released was swallowed by the light wall at once. How How can this be?

His eyes widened in disbelief. Didnt Shen Ying set up these light walls in order to protect all the other planes from getting destroyed in the course of their battle? How could they fend against a blow that took all of his power?

Before he could give this any further thought, Shen Ying raised her hand. On top of the light walls, a hundred thousand beams of red light appeared. They were very densely packed together, and all headed toward the man. He was not prepared. The beams of light pierced right through his body.

He instinctively tried to turn into a formless energy once again, but he was stuck. Something had sealed all the powers in his body. He could not change forms anymore. All he could do was watch as the red beams of light pierced through his body and drew blood. Whats more, he was helpless as he felt his powers flow right out of his wounds. He felt like a deflating balloon there was nothing he could do to stop the power from leaking out.

This This is impossible! Why is this happening? My powers No, No! He was beginning to panic now. His eyes widened in terror as he tried desperately to close up the holes in his body. But he found he could not move at all. Something was locking him in place. There was really nothing he could do to stop this from happening.

What kind of light is this?! His face drained of all colour as he glared at Shen Ying, refusing to take his eyes off her. He seemed to think of something. Eyes widening even more, he exclaimed, This isnt a judges power Judges cant do this! Who are you? What kind of person are you?!

Shen Ying did not answer him. All she did was walk slowly toward him, her expression icy and unflinching. Her red eyes were especially frightening. They alone threatened to destroy everything around her.

The man tried to defend himself, but now that he was unable to move, all he could do was watch her inch closer to him until she was standing right beside him. She reached out and grabbed his neck, then lifted him up.

She had her hands around his neck, but he felt somehow like his entire body was being squeezed by her. The pressure was increasing by the second. Suddenly, he felt a god-like force squeeze his innards. An unthinkable pain shot across his entire body.

THe mans eyes grew wider and wider. There was absolute fear in his eyes as he began to twist and turn in pain. He flickered back and forth between a formless ball of energy and a man. No No, dont kill me! I was wrong Please I beg you!

But Shen Ying did not let go. She just tightened her grip around his neck and narrowed her eyes. Emphasising each word, she muttered, I dont care what you do to me. But my older sister I wont let you touch even a strand of her hair!

The moment she finished speaking, she clenched her fist and crushed the mans soul. With a loud bang, the man exploded into a myriad of energies.
