Chapter 751– The First Battle Begins

Yan Kailun had been looking at this impeccably handsome young man across from him. He looked to be about 16 or 17 years old and was probably in his fourth year.

Shrek Academy had always been a place he yearned to go to, and it was also a place he had to go to. He had already received news that as long as they could defeat Shrek Academy this time, they would have another spot. He really needed this spot, so he had to win no matter what.

An intense battle intent surged in his heart, and his blood seemed to be on fire. It was as if a ball of fire was about to spew out of his eyes, and his clothes were tense because of his firm muscles. He was like a volcano that could erupt at any time, waiting for the start of the match.

Over at the Federation’s Central Academy, Li Qiuqiu rubbed his chubby face and exclaimed softly, “Woah, Captain’s fighting spirit is so strong! I almost saw flames on him, I’ve never seen Captain like this before.”

An Yu scoffed. “That’s because you will never stand opposite him and be his opponent.”

Li Qiuqiu giggled. “Why should I stand opposite Captain? I will always be the man standing behind Captain.”

“Are you itching for a beating, Qiuqiu?” Qing Luo asked with a smile.

“No, definitely not. Sister Qing Luo, I was wrong.” Li Qiuqiu immediately shuddered and smiled widely.

“That’s right, he’s itching for a beating. He has thick skin anyway. Beat him up.” Qiangu Yourou fanned the flames at the side.

“Yourou, you can’t do this. On account of the fact that I’ve had a crush on you for so many years…” Li Qiuqiu looked at her resentfully.

Qiangu Yourou pursed her lips. “When will your two legs be as long as mine? You can tell me that again. I don’t have to think about guys who are shorter than me.”

Li Qiuqiu pouted and looked at Qing Luo. “Sister Qing Luo, look at her, she’s bullying me again.”

Right at this moment, a gigantic hand suddenly pressed down on Li Qiuqiu’s head and spun him around three times.

“Be quiet, it’s about to begin.”

The owner of the hand was Xi Chenluo. His hand was extremely big and almost covered Li Qiuqiu’s head. Li Qiuqiu was dizzy from being coiled by him and didn’t dare to speak.

Qiangu Yourou took a glance at Xi Chenluo and did not speak anymore. Everyone looked towards the competition grounds.

The referee was the Dean of the Federal Central Academy, Lin Mohua.

There was no doubt that whether it was the team members representing Shrek Academy or the seven representatives from the Federation’s Central Academy, they were all elites among elites and could not afford to have any mishaps. Hence, Lin Mohua was the referee for today’s sparring match in order to make a move at the crucial moment to prevent any casualties. Of course, it was also thanks to him that both parties would be able to display their strength better without any scruples.

“Begin!” Lin Mohua shouted expressionlessly, announcing the official start of the traditional sparring match between the two academies.

“AH!” Yan Kailun roared as all the blood in his body erupted and he shot forward like a cannonball.

His body was in the air as soul rings drilled out from beneath his feet. His body swelled up as his muscles bulged. The clothes on his upper body split open almost instantly, revealing his strong muscles. The surface of his skin emitted a layer of greenish-grey light as though it had an invisible armor.

Seven soul rings, three purple and four black. He was a seven-ring Soul Sage.

As the captain of the Federation’s Central Academy team, he was a Soul Sage.

“Yan Kailun! Yan Kailun! Yan Kailun!” On the spectator stand, the students of the Federation’s Central Academy cheered like a tsunami.

There was no doubt that as the team leader, Yan Kailun was extremely famous in the Federation’s Central Academy. When he was in the Outer Court, he had relied on his pair of iron fists to make a name for himself and eventually became one of the most representative figures in the academy. He was also the current president of the Federation’s Central Academy’s student union. Whether it was in terms of strength or character, he was recognized by all the teachers and students in the academy.

Just as Yan Kailun charged out, Lan Xuanyu moved as well. He flew out as well with a faint gold and silver glow in his eyes. But unlike Yan Kailun, he did not release his soul rings or Martial Soul.

The distance between them shortened instantly. The closer they got to Yan Kailun, the more Lan Xuanyu could feel the hot blood energy fluctuation from his opponent’s body. It was not only a manifestation of his own strength, but also a manifestation of his strong battle intent. Yan Kailun’s battle intent seemed to have completely merged with his spiritual power, and it was emitting immense pressure.

Lan Xuanyu’s expression was calm and he could clearly see the desire in Yan Kailun’s eyes.

Both parties arrived before each other in an instant.

Yan Kailun’s right fist flew towards Lan Xuanyu with an extremely strong momentum.

Lan Xuanyu’s Martial Soul was released at this moment and four pitch-black soul rings suddenly rose from beneath his feet. Lan Xuanyu extended both hands and the soul rings on his hands flashed.

The golden-patterned and silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass had leaves that drilled out and curled around his hands.

Four rings? Only four rings?

The entire audience was in an uproar and Yan Kailun was slightly taken aback.

From his point of view, Lan Xuanyu being the captain of Shrek Academy’s representative team meant that he was the strongest of the seven. Even if he wasn’t a seven-ring Soul Sage, he should be a six-ring Soul Emperor.

The opponent actually only had four soul rings. Although they were all black 10,000-year soul rings, there were only four of them after all! With just four soul rings he could represent Shrek Academy in the competition. Wasn’t this child’s play? Would he be able to kill the opponent with one punch?

These messy thoughts immediately surfaced in Yan Kailun’s mind, causing his powerful punch to be slightly affected and his momentum to weaken.

Right at this moment, Lan Xuanyu, who was also charging forward, suddenly slipped and his figure flickered like a ghost. At the same time, he opened his mouth and roared as a gigantic golden dragon head charged out.

Golden Dragon Roar!

The Golden Dragon Roar at such a close distance was deafening. In that instant, the cheers from the entire audience were suppressed. After all, that was a 10,000-year soul skill!

Yan Kailun’s entire body froze. The aura that was locked onto Lan Xuanyu dissipated instantly.

Lan Xuanyu took the opportunity to slide to Yan Kailun’s side. Before the roaring golden dragon disappeared, his right fist brazenly unleashed another golden dragon. The two dragons overlapped and smashed towards Yan Kailun’s waist.

Yan Kailun was taller than him and his waist was a vital point. This change happened extremely quickly.

Yan Kailun’s reaction was also very fast. Although his body was stiff, it was like an instinctive reaction. His body suddenly bent to the side, his muscles tensed up, and his waist avoided the attack. He didn’t have time to release his soul skill and could only use his shoulder to take Lan Xuanyu’s punch.

“Bang!” Amidst the valiant dragon roar, Yan Kailun was forced to the side by Lan Xuanyu’s punch.

Lan Xuanyu was shocked because he realized that when his fist landed on Yan Kailun’s shoulder, the triangular muscles on Yan Kailun’s shoulder instantly tightened and then relaxed. It was as tough as a ripe cowhide and even strangely vibrated continuously, neutralizing most of the force. If not for his bloodline suppressing the other party, this punch might not have been able to force Yan Kailun back.
