Volume 1 Chapter 54: Lianyan Gun, Scorching Fury Tides

  "In the fifth round, Tian Zi No. 5 Xu Zhengchun will be competing against Di Zi No. 5... Xu Yang!" Xu Qing slammed his fist on the table and said loudly.

  "What's going on? Xu Yang has already had one match, how can there be another one, and even the number plates have changed!" Xu Changling furrowed his white eyebrows.

  Xu Qingyue walked back with a bitter smile and said, "Father, this time it was Xu Yang who voluntarily swapped name tags with Xu Zhengchun."

  "What audacity!" Patriarch San of the Xu family slammed his hand on the high chair and shouted, "This little beast is really courting death, actually daring to challenge Zhengyuan?"

  "Arrogant! Ignorant! Just like his father!" The third ancestor of the Xu family cursed in anger, "Quickly, tell Zhengchun not to hold back, beat him to death for me!"

  "Lao San!" Xu Changling stopped him, saying sternly, "Qing E, go and tell Qing Peng to hold back a bit. After all, this is an internal family competition, there's no need to be overly aggressive."

  Xu Jiasan's ancestor angrily said: "No way!"

  The old man with a goat beard and a hunched back stood up straight, facing Xu Changling: "Master of the house, I absolutely disagree with what you said! If we should hold back because of the family competition, then what about Xu Yang's first match, where he crippled my grandson Zhengming? What crime is that?"

  Xu Qingliang was somewhat embarrassed and glanced at his father.

  It's not just Xu Qinglian, Xu Changling is also in a dilemma. If the family rules are to be followed strictly, Xu Yang's first move was indeed excessive and should be penalized; but if he doesn't intervene, allowing Xu Zhengyuan and Xu Yang to exchange blows freely, he worries about Xu Yang's safety.

  The second ancestor who had been silent all along stood up and said, "Big brother, I think we old guys shouldn't just sit around anymore. This might be the most exciting match of this grand competition. Why don't we go watch?"

  Xu Changling nodded slightly, quickly understanding the meaning of Lao Er's words. He stroked his beard and smiled: "That's right, sitting here for a long time is also boring. Let's go! Qing Jie, don't stop them."

  Xu Changling had his own plan, as long as he was observing the battle near the arena, even if Xu Yang encountered a life-threatening injury in an instant, with his Xuanzong's strength, he could easily step in and rescue Xu Yang.

  Under the stage, with Xu Qing's declaration, a loud laugh erupted.

  "I've waited for a long time!" Xu Zhengchun stepped forward, one step at a time, as if walking on invisible stairs, his white clothes fluttering, making him look even more extraordinary.

  "Ah... indeed, a talent that can rival the great Longfeng Xushi! This move of manipulating the void is something that none of our younger generation in the Xu family can match!" an astonished Xu clan member exclaimed.

  "All bark and no bite." Xuyang made a decisive judgment.

  Xu Zhengchun is using his Xuanli to support himself from the outside, holding onto the ground with every step, consuming Xuanli and testing his control over it.

  A true master of the void is a strong practitioner at the Xuan Jun level, who has control over themselves and naturally possesses the ability to reach the "see micro" realm. Xu Zheng Chun being so cautious every step of the way really loses the face of the two words "void".

  However, being able to pull off this move at the Xuan Shi stage is indeed extraordinary, and even Xu Qing's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.

  "A family internal trial, just a test of skills, you don't have any deep grudges," Xu Qing said, although he hadn't received the master's instructions, but made an exception and spoke up, looking at Xu Zhengchun and Xu Yang on the stage, "Do you understand?"

  Xu Zhengchun's eyes flashed with a hint of ridicule, and he said: "Qing Leng Shu, I dare not agree with you on this. If we just stop at the point of being adequate, how can we improve our skills? Cultivating the mysterious is about seeking breakthroughs and explosions at the boundary between life and death. If one doesn't even have the courage for that, then it's better to admit defeat and go farm or work instead! Why bother participating in the family competition?"

  Xu Zhengchun guessed Xu Qinggong's mind, he was worried that Xu Yang would be beaten too badly, so he specially warned in advance, but Xu Zhengchun hated Xu Yang extremely and of course wouldn't listen.

  Xu Qinggong looked deeply at Xu Zhengchun, took a few steps back, made way for him and said: "Let's begin."

  As soon as the three words fell to the ground, Xu Zhengchun quickly jumped back and opened up a distance with Xu Yang! He had seen Xu Yang punch and disable Xu Zhengming, so he wouldn't make the same mistake.

  "Ransei Gun!" Xǔ Zhēngchún was a Huojī Xuánshì, he opened up the distance and quickly formed a seal, casting this long-range attacking mystic technique.

  A surge of intense, mystical flame energy burst forth from Xu Zhengzhi's palms and shot straight towards Xu Yang, vaguely taking the shape of a flaming spear.

  Xu Yang had seen the mysterious master Wei Haoshan perform the Lianyan Gun Xuan Shu at the Huoyun Daochang, and in comparison, although Xu Zheng's profound energy was slightly inferior to Wei Haoshan's, his purity was a notch higher, revealing the extraordinary talent of a noble-born son.

  His left hand suddenly shot out, and Xu Yang took a deep breath. The suction force from his palm surged out, shooting towards the flame spear that was heading for his chest, but it was forcibly pulled off course, stabbing straight into Xu Yang's palm instead.

  Xu Yang's left hand suddenly exerted a burst of force, and the grey-brown covering on his left hand was like a boulder, pinching that one shot of "Lan Yan Gun" into a sky filled with fiery red.

  "Good grief, this physical strength is unreal!" exclaimed the second ancestor of the Xu family from his high chair near the arena. "I really don't know how that little brat Xu Yang cultivated his body, he's simply like a young beast from the wilds!"

  Xu Jiasan's face turned slightly sour, and he hummed: "The foundation of a cultivator is their cultivation base, it's their cultivation! If you abandon the fundamentals to pursue superficial things, there won't be a good outcome."

  On the stage, Xu Zhengchun's eyes also flashed with a look of shock, only by facing the enemy head-on could he feel the extent of Xu Yang's physical strength.

  That last shot of Raksha's Flame Spear contained a power that absolutely exceeded 150 kilograms! Xǔ Yáng was able to crush it with just one hand, what does this imply? It implies that Xǔ Yáng's physical strength is above 150 kilograms!

  Xu Zheng's cultivation in the middle period of Xuan Shi was already quite good, with a physical strength of 50 jin, but this physique was still not even comparable to Xu Yang's toe.

  "Alright, I admit it, your physical strength is indeed formidable. I'm starting to take you seriously now, this is an honor for you!" Xǔ Zhēngchún said, "Go all out! I'll let you know that having a strong physique is fundamentally useless!"

  Xu Yang shook his head and said lightly: "You don't understand what I mean."

  "What do you mean?" Xu Zhengchun frowned.

  "I took the fifth wooden plaque, not because you're qualified to be my opponent, but because I don't want to hear your voice anymore, like a fly buzzing in my ear," Xǔ Yáng said quietly, as if stating a fact. "Regardless of whether or not you take me seriously, just knowing that I've never taken you seriously is enough."

  Xu Zhengchun's face turned extremely ugly, it turned out that Xu Yang had never taken himself seriously!

  The thunderous laughter from below was like a needle piercing into Xu Zhengchun's innermost heart.

  "Roar! Xǔ Yáng, I'm going to kill you!" Xǔ Zhèngchún suddenly bellowed, his forehead bulging with veins, "Blazing Fury Wave! Go die!"

  Scorching and oppressive fire essence, from every single meridian on Xu Zheng's body, spewed out violently, almost materializing into a sea of flames, rolling waves of fire like ocean tides, furiously surging towards Xu Yang.
