Chapter 420: Not Worth a Blow
In the blink of an eye, the two met in the center of the arena carrying strong winds, and two fists, one large and one small, collided without any fancy moves!
“Boom!”
A muffled thunderclap sounded out of nowhere, and a powerful force erupted between the two fists, transforming into a gale that swept out in all directions. Cultivators in the stands who were close by were swept away like falling leaves.
The next moment, Xiao Wei’s expression changed, and he retreated four or five steps consecutively.
“How is this possible? You are only at the second layer of the Huashen Realm, and you are a woman, yet you can keep up with my speed and possess such strong physical strength?”
Xiao Wei said incredulously, his face slightly pale, clearly at a disadvantage.
“She’s indeed not simple!”
Cheng Hong Ling, watching from below, saw this scene, and her pupils contracted slightly, her expression becoming unprecedentedly solemn.
“A princess of the dynasty, a big spender, it’s not surprising. I wonder if she used any body-tempering spirit medicines.”
Qi Huang, however, still said calmly.
“It seems you still don’t understand me enough!”
Lin Ran’s expression on the stage remained unchanged, her long legs tensed, and the next moment she disappeared from her original position again, charging at Xiao Wei like a female leopard.
Xiao Wei’s expression sharpened. His spiritual sense, at the fifth layer of the Huashen Realm, emerged from his body and swept towards Lin Ran like a tidal wave. At the same time, he stomped on the ground and charged forward again like a bull, thinking, “With my spiritual sense! I don’t believe I can’t suppress you!”
Lin Ran did not dodge or evade, letting the spiritual sense crush her. Her feet sank slightly into the ground, but her speed did not decrease at all. Her small fists tore through the air like arrows released from a bow, making ear-piercing whistling sounds.
“Boom!”
The two fists, one large and one small, collided again, erupting with an even stronger force than before. The ground beneath their feet also exploded with a loud bang, and碎石 flew out in all directions.
“Stomp, stomp, stomp…”
This time, Xiao Wei retreated at least ten steps backward. His feet trembled slightly, and an unnatural flush appeared on his face.
“This is impossible. My spiritual sense at the fifth layer of the Huashen Realm actually did not restrict your speed and strength at all.”
Xiao Wei said with a solemn expression. Although he pretended to be calm, his unstable breathing caused a trace of blood to flow from the corner of his mouth.
“What a naive fellow. If spiritual sense were effective against her, why would I have to fight her for so long every time?”
Cheng Kang mocked from below.
“Your Excellency seems to be injured? Do you want to rest before continuing? Since you are a guest from afar, I will give you a chance for a mid-match break.”
Lin Ran raised an eyebrow indifferently.
“Nonsense, who is injured!”
Xiao Wei immediately retorted hysterically.
“Still playing tough even with a bleeding mouth. You should wipe the blood from the corner of your mouth before speaking!”
Qi Huang egged him on from below. She had figured it out; even if she wasn’t on the stage, she had to steal the spotlight.
“Wh-what blood? Where is the blood?”
Xiao Wei frantically wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
“Isn’t that red on your lips blood? It can’t be menstruation, can it?”
Qi Huang said aggressively.
“Pfft!”
Several senior sisters around them spurted out, and Cheng Hong Ling also showed a strange expression, clearly trying hard to hold back.
“Haha, the cultivators of the Gaosheng Kingdom are truly eye-opening. Men also get menstruation!”
“His physical strength as a grown man is inferior to the Sixth Princess. If it’s not due to menstruation, what else could it be?”
“Considering you’re a eunuch and a sissy, hurry up and get down! We won’t hold you accountable for what happened before.”
…
The local cultivators below took the opportunity to amplify the situation, and the atmosphere in the plaza became lively.
“Senior Brother, do you want us to help?”
The faces of other disciples of the Xing Lie Sect on the stage were a little unable to contain themselves, so they quickly stepped forward to inquire.
Lin Ran’s expression flickered slightly. If the opponent swarmed them, she might not be able to handle it, after all, the disciples of the Xing Lie Sect were no match for the rookies of the Longchang Sect behind her.
“What? The dignified master at the fifth layer of the Huashen Realm, do you need help to fight our Sixth Princess?”
“And he’s a grown man, isn’t that embarrassing!”
“It seems that the cultivation world of the Gaosheng Kingdom is nothing more than this. The Xing Lie Sect, one of the Ten Great Immortal Sects, can only produce such guys who are strong on the outside but weak on the inside!”
…
The other immortal seeds from the Longchang Sect also taunted them. Their low strength meant they could only be cheerleaders, and they naturally didn’t want the match to turn into a ten-on-ten team battle.
“What man? What man experiences menstruation? It’s fine to help, there’s no shame, after all, it’s her physiological period today!”
Qi Huang used the trick of provocation again, which immediately caused a burst of laughter from the surroundings.
Lin Ran glanced at Qi Huang indifferently. She couldn’t figure out why the other party was helping her. Wasn’t this like nurturing a tiger that would cause trouble later?
“No need! I’m enough to deal with her!”
Xiao Wei indeed fell for the bait and angrily rebuked the senior and junior brothers who wanted to help.
“Again!”
Xiao Wei roared, and with a thought, dozens of shining swords appeared before him, then swept towards Lin Ran like a storm. Having learned from his previous lesson, he did not dare to engage in close combat.
Lin Ran instantly disappeared from her original position. She stepped out with mysterious footwork, dodging the dense sword rain like a phantom, leaving behind gusts of airflow.
“Let’s see how long you can dodge!”
Xiao Wei’s face showed a ferocious smile. He took out all the weapons stored in his storage ring and threw them into the pursuit.
At this moment, Lin Ran suddenly stopped and then shouted, “Swift Wind Step, activate!”
At the same time, the airflow she left behind began to intertwine rapidly, forming a violent tornado in the blink of an eye, engulfing all the swords.
The next moment, Lin Ran charged at Xiao Wei again.
Xiao Wei’s lips curved slightly. His spiritual sense emerged from his body, and his body also soared into the sky, shouting with great pride, “On the ground, we compare physique; I am inferior to you. In the sky, we compare spiritual sense; what will you use to compare with me!”
After speaking, Xiao Wei roared, “Come out! Mountain Crushing Hammer!”
At the same time, a rusty iron hammer appeared before Xiao Wei.
Xiao Wei held the iron hammer with one hand and madly injected the ferocious True Qi within his body into it. The iron hammer rapidly expanded like a balloon, becoming as large as a mountain in the blink of an eye. The rust on its surface fell off, revealing a gleaming exterior, with runes flashing on it, filling the entire space with a mysterious and ancient aura.
“Suppress!”
Xiao Wei’s spiritual sense transformed into two large hands, firmly grasping the large handle of the iron hammer, and then smashing it down towards Lin Ran below.
“Sixth Princess, quickly dodge! That’s the sect-protecting treasure of the Xing Lie Sect, the Mountain Crushing Hammer, which once killed a Golden Corpse!”
Someone exclaimed from below.
Lin Ran, however, seemed not to hear. She stomped on the ground, and her body sprang up like a cannonball. Her small fists, carrying an unstoppable momentum, met the Mountain Crushing Hammer.
“Is she crazy? This hammer can’t be withstood by the physical body alone!”
Cheng Hong Ling frowned slightly.
Qi Huang’s nerves also tensed, as the Sixth Princess was now fighting for all the cultivators of the Xihui Dynasty, and if she lost, it would be a disgrace to her.
“Should I help her secretly?”
Qi Huang had such a thought in her mind.
“Resisting the Mountain Crushing Hammer with the physical body? Truly overestimating oneself! It seems that the royal family of the Xihui Dynasty will lose an offspring today.”
Xiao Wei laughed maniacally, releasing all his spiritual sense and wildly swinging the Mountain Crushing Hammer down.
Lin Ran charged towards the Mountain Crushing Hammer, like a moth flying into a flame, small and fragile. But just as the two were about to make contact, a blood-colored treasure sword suddenly appeared in her hand.
As soon as this treasure sword appeared, a monstrous killing intent spread out.
Xiao Wei, caught off guard from above, was immediately panicked, and his spiritual sense dispersed.
Without the control of spiritual sense, the Mountain Crushing Hammer flew out like a kite with a broken string, and Xiao Wei himself staggered and fell from the sky, unable to maintain his posture.
Lin Ran had already rushed to the front. She did not use the sword but turned and kicked Xiao Wei in the chest.
“Crack!”
A crisp sound of bone cracking echoed. Xiao Wei flew out like a broken sack, smashing a pit with a radius of three zhang at the edge of the plaza like a meteor!
“Cultivators of the Gaosheng Kingdom, not worth a blow!”
Lin Ran said, looking down at the large pit.
