Capítulo 1036: Chapter 437: Wrath of the Light Hawk! (Food Poisoning, Full Attendance Guaranteed)
Might even comprehend a couple of powerful moves!
“Hiss…”
“Whoosh!”
In the next second.
The blood-red mist spreading in all directions formed a massive vortex like homing swallows. It was as if there was a black hole at the center of the pool, rapidly devouring the Master’s Enlightenment.
“Ding!”
“Bang!”
The pool water suddenly exploded, splashing everywhere.
A figure of golden light shot skyward like a missile, reaching the peak of Qunxiang Mountain from the mountainside in no time.
“Crack!”
Bai Xiao floated quietly like a rigid, cold statue.
The bottleneck within him shattered, his aura surged.
Unknown grounds, master foundation.
From the platinum seed evolved robust foliage, with four buds beginning to grow crazily. One glowed with golden light and dragon-elephant patterns. Another mixed yin and yang, covered with scales and feathers. One exuded celestial air, surrounded by white mist. The last seemed to bear pavilions and towers, a mystical celestial mountain island.
“Roar!”
Bai Xiao’s Dragon Elephant Will evolved again, overwhelmingly powerful.
With a single step, he suddenly entered the Peak Flow Master Middle Stage!
And not just that.
Bai Xiao’s fourth Forbidden Secret Technique, Yellow Court Scripture, its forbidden path was instantly seized and refined by him. Unlike other peak flow masters who spend significant time, risking backlash to seize the forbidden, he created the Yellow Court Scripture, the cause and effect are with him.
“Buzz…”
In an instant.
Bai Xiao felt the feedback from the fourth Forbidden Secret Martial finally appeared. The master foundation was once again blessed with boundless vitality, growing swiftly. Originally tightly closed buds began to slowly open, petals bearing Martial Arts mysteries bloomed inch by inch.
Additionally, the lingering effect of three-year-old Enlightenment Tea Leaves.
“Sizzle…”
A scorching white stream diffused from his mouth and nose.
Bai Xiao progressed rapidly, just stepping into the Peak Flow Master Middle Stage is close to the Late Period, a remarkable leap. This is the result of thick accumulation. He has the support of four Forbidden Secret Martial techniques, possibly the first in history. Seizing four forbidden paths, indeed a boundless creation!
Such terrifying endowment allows him to hold an advantage in the Peak Flow Master realm. Moreover, not just peak flow masters, but masters too! Not long ago, Bai Xiao consulted Chairman Ouyang about the master realm.
Chairman Ouyang’s answer was unusually concise.
The master level has no realm distinction, only the strength of the foundation.
The more formidable the foundation, as vast as the ocean, even newly entering the master realm, can surpass experts who have been masters for hundreds of years. From peak flow master to master, it’s the ultimate leap of a martial artist’s life. Before becoming a master, the deeper the foundation, the more profound the enlightenment, when the qualitative change occurs, the power gained is frightening.
Almost deciding your combat power within the master realm.
Subsequently, masters with weak foundations can also, through long time, further dig into martial enlightenment, becoming stronger. Even if exerting all effort, it can only barely contend against masters with strong foundations.
“The ultimate leap, huh?”
Bai Xiao’s eyes flickered, muttering to himself.
He floated above Qunxiang Mountain peak, slightly turned his head, glanced in the direction of Yunshan Valley. With a thought, his entire being sped forward like a platinum long arc, breaking the sound barrier, flying like a fighter jet.
Taking a car is too slow; flying is faster.
…
One o’clock in the afternoon, Yunshan Valley.
The competition site and viewing platform had already opened, and numerous spectators resting in the resort streamed in, sitting with anticipation.
Morning’s competition was divided into two segments.
Bai Xiao left after his match, not watching the subsequent games. But he guessed that nine out of ten who progressed to the semifinals were Sword Demon and Light Eagle. The ultimate result was the same, Sword Demon and Light Eagle won that debate.
And relatively easily.
Besides them, the strongest was only Seraphim of the third tier.
The other was purely lucky in achieving the top eight.
So everything was as expected.
…
“Tap, tap, tap, tap…”
In the waiting hall resembling a modern airport.
A figure in a black and gold Dragon Elephant Fighting Suit seemed wrapped in wind and frost, fabric tightly clinging to a sturdy body, outlining a tall, mighty silhouette. His steps were steady and forceful, making muffled echoes on the marble floor.
In front, rows of shiny metal seats were now empty. Most of the dozens of contestants had been eliminated, leaving only four. And at the front row sat three people.
On the far left.
Light Eagle Feilin, with a delicate and beautiful side profile, slightly turned, seaweed-like white curls blocking half an eye, looked diagonally at Bai Xiao.
The far right.
The Spirit King, having changed into purple clothes, also turned to look over.
He, indeed, has a deep impression of Bai Xiao.
Only the central position.
The Sword Demon’s tall and black silhouette remained utterly still, eyes perpetually shut. The whole person seemed to exist in a realm transcendent to physical matters, where all joys and sorrows, fame, and interests no longer concerned him.
This person, nearing Grandmaster!
Bai Xiao gave the Sword Demon a profound glance.
He directly sat at the rearmost row, expressionless, looking forward.
The gazes of Light Eagle and the Spirit King also quickly retracted.
Because, on the battle square.
The host in a red outfit reappeared.
His gaze swept left and right, seeming to sense the excitement of many spectators in the audience. Thus, he directly announced in a voice like ringing a large bell.
“The Martial Arts Competition, the top four, commence!”
As the voice fell.
The uproarious noise surged and echoed, almost threatening to shake the whole valley down.
“Buzz buzz buzz…”
The glass in the waiting hall was trembling slightly.
In the spectator stands.
Amidst the dense seating, numerous audience members looked down and discussed in low voices, their words revealing an ardent, bloodthirsty excitement.
Some even stood up with reddened eyes, vigorously waving their fists.
“Even if I die, the ticket price would be worth it!”
“Watching the next two matches will be something I can boast about for a lifetime!”
In this growingly fanatical atmosphere.
At one-thirty in the afternoon.
The host directly announced the upcoming matchups of the top four.
“First match.”
“White Eagle Republic, Heavenly Country, Light Eagle Feilin!”
“Versus…”
“Tianxia Federation, Dragon Elephant Martial Arts Hall, Dragon Elephant Bai Xiao!”
As the words settled.
It was like mountains chanting seas roaring, all eyes focused, with eardrums trembling and shaking.
“Quack, I want to see, I want to see!”
“Hiss, it’s a duel of strong contenders, definitely a fight to the death!”
“It’s a pity it’s not the Sword Demon against Light Eagle, those two fighting would be even more exciting. Although Bai Xiao’s strength isn’t necessarily weaker than theirs, these two are the most famous worldwide, known as the most hopeful to step into Grandmaster…”
“I can’t wait any longer, bring it on quickly!”
In an instant, all kinds of voices mixed chaotically.
Everyone’s excitement shot up to the peak all at once.
…
“Please, both contestants, enter the arena!”
The host shouted loudly while quickly departing the battle square.
“Tap tap tap…”
In the waiting hall.
One black, one white; one strong, one thin; one masculine, one effeminate, two figures slowly approached. They stood on either side of the square, like two classical statues.
One possessed a breathtaking beauty, under the sunlight, elegant like a heavenly god in palace murals. Standing at about 1.77 meters tall, his figure was slim like refined silver blades, skin cold white, translucent like porcelain. His eyebrows and eyes were exquisitely detailed, blue pupils clear like frozen lakes, silver hair cascading to the waist.
In white full moon armor, all around intricately engraved with ornate heavenly kingdom reliefs.
The other bursting with masculine grandeur, like classical sculptors showcasing skill, dedicated to interpreting strength and beauty. Towering over 1.90 meters in height, muscular contours like axe chisels, swelling and hardened as if forged from steel. Golden veins emerged on the robust arms like oak.
His face cold and silent, yet between the brows, exuding an inexplicable dominance.
Both, regardless of appearance or aura, seemed like two extremes. Like the yin and yang of the world, unable to blend, only confront.
“Hoo hoo hoo hoo…”
Within the valley, gusts of wind thrashed, slapping against the two.
