Chapter 139: Ultimate Combo! Complete Domination!
The second phase is the more powerful form that a monster BOSS in a dungeon only activates once its HP drops to a certain threshold.
Using it to describe Xu Jingming and Kilan on the arena at this moment was unexpectedly fitting.
"This......"
Kilan on the arena was dumbfounded—how come you have a form change too?
Feeling the overwhelming pressure radiating from Xu Jingming, he instinctively asked:
"An S-rank combat technique?"
"You guessed right, but unfortunately, there's no reward......"
Not a single trace of emotion could be seen in Xu Jingming's dragon-like vertical pupils wreathed in Lei Ting.
He raised his left hand, gently clenched it slightly toward Kilan, and a voice as majestic as a god's rang out:
"Lei Prison!"
Crackle!
In an instant, blue-purple Lei Ting formed a cage, pinning Kilan in place on the spot!
"It's a restraint-type combat technique! Not good! He's about to prepare and unleash that S-rank Heavenly Lei combat technique!"
Kilan's expression changed drastically—if he let Xu Jingming unleash it successfully, then the match would really be over.
"Go all out! Qi-Blood Armor!"
Kilan's entire body's qi and blood surged, and astonishingly, a defense resembling armor formed on the surface of his body!
Immediately after, his massive frame, towering at two meters and twenty centimeters, forcibly shot out from the Lei Prison!
Crackle-pop-pop——
Despite the double protection of the Qi-Blood Armor and the B-rank combat suit.
The powerful Lei Ting formed by the prison bombarded his body, still hurting him so much he was baring his teeth!
He felt his whole body go numb and tingling, and his movements had slowed somewhat.
However, before he could even catch his breath, he heard a sudden boom of a sonic explosion, and sensed a lethal danger approaching from ahead!
"Dash!"
Kilan hurriedly used a movement-type combat technique to dodge to the side.
The next moment,
a Lei Mao streaked past the edge of his body!
Boom-boom-boom!!
The Lei Mao struck the arena floor behind him and exploded with a thunderous blast!
A large crater was blasted into the ground, and as it trembled slightly, a mushroom cloud brimming with violent blue-purple Lei Ting slowly rose on the spot!
"What a terrifying Lei Mao!"
Kilan swallowed hard with difficulty—if that had hit him directly.
Even if he didn't die, he'd be heavily injured!
But just at this moment, Xu Jingming flashed with Lei Guang in his peripheral vision and had actually vanished from the spot!
The next moment,
the tall figure wreathed in lightning appeared right before his eyes.
At the same time, a black-green spear also wreathed in lightning thrust forth like a flood dragon:
"Lightning Shandian Jifeng Po!"
"This fast?"
The movement-type combat technique had just been used, and with his qi and blood churning, he couldn't use it again.
So, facing this thrusting strike, he could only hastily hold his long saber horizontally in front of him!
Clang!
The spear thrust against the great saber, instantly producing a deafening sound!
The tremendous force transmitted from the great saber actually made Kilan unable to fully withstand it, tilting backward!
It's over!!
The moment this thought flashed through his mind, the tall figure resembling Lei Shen before his eyes once again brandished his spear!
"Chain Lei Spear!"
Spear shadows carrying terrifying Lei Ting came sweeping in, and Kilan, whose center of gravity had been broken, simply couldn't defend!
He could only watch helplessly as the spear thrust toward him!
"As long as I withstand this one strike, I still have a chance!"
Kilan's face turned vicious, preparing to tough it out and take this strike head-on!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!......
In less than 0.5 seconds, Xu Jingming had thrust out seven spears in rapid succession!
By the time Kilan came back to his senses, seven blood-soaked holes had already appeared on his body!
But under the double stimulation of the S-rank enhancement-type ability and adrenaline, Kilan actually couldn't feel too much pain!
At this moment, he finally stabilized his center of gravity, and his face couldn't help but turn savage as he violently swung his saber:
"Now, it's my turn!"
Facing Kilan who was about to counterattack, Xu Jingming's resolute face showed not the slightest fluctuation in expression—he merely uttered a single word:
"Detonate!"
As his voice fell, Lei Guang actually flickered within those seven wounds on Kilan's body!
The next moment,
There was a loud bang as seven wounds on Kilan's body suddenly exploded open!
Under the powerful explosion of Lei Ting, his body was as if struck head-on by a high-speed train, blasted flying!
Only when he hit the boundary's mist barrier did his flight come to a stop.
"Puh—"
Lying on the ground, Kilan's front was a bloody mess; he immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.
The next instant,
he felt a sharp spearpoint press against his third eye.
One more inch forward, and it would pierce his skull, completing the kill.
"I… surrender."
Feeling this lethal threat, Kilan spoke with difficulty.
Though he hated to admit it, he had truly lost.
And he lost with no room for protest.
Before Xu Jingming's formidable physique and mastery of lightning-based abilities and combat techniques,
he had not the slightest resistance!
Perhaps his fate had already been sealed the moment both entered their special states...
"Winner: Xu Jingming!"
Jiang Mo, vice principal of Jin, announced the result with slight surprise.
Thus, this S-class versus S-class direct clash came to an end.
Kilan, the veteran third-rank S-class, had been mercilessly crushed by Xu Jingming in near-total domination!
"Sss…"
"That's terrifying."
Only when Vice Principal Jiang Mo declared the winner did the freshmen in the audience snap out of their shock.
Their faces were filled with stunned awe.
Fast! Too fast!
They had expected this S-class versus S-class battle to last over ten minutes, even half an hour.
Yet in reality, it ended in under two minutes!
And Xu Jingming's posture of near-total domination throughout left a deep impression on everyone.
Could a lightning-ability user really outmatch a strength-enhancement user in raw power?
How was that even possible?
They couldn't understand.
"I have to say, Brother Ming's technique transitions were perfect—he gave Kilan not a single opening!"
"Yeah, if it were me, I could never have done it so cleanly."
"Heh, if it were you, you couldn't even block Kilan's casual slash."
Though the freshmen didn't understand what techniques Xu Jingming used,
they could still see how fluidly the techniques flowed together.
They gave Kilan not a single breath of space!
"Use Lei Yu to restrict movement, then Lei Mao to force Kilan to expend his mobility techniques.
Then use Lei Shan to close in, link into Lightning Gale Break to disrupt Kilan's balance, and finish with a chain of Lei Qiang."
This sequence of techniques was perfectly interlocked—any single mistake in between would have ruined such a clean victory."
The three-school instructors in the front row nodded repeatedly.
Compared to the freshmen, they could analyze far more details.
But the more they analyzed, the more terrifying Xu Jingming seemed.
On one hand, executing this sequence required extremely strong combat awareness!
On the other, it demanded high proficiency in each technique.
So the question arose:
So far, they knew Xu Jingming had trained two S-class combat techniques.
And the Lei Shan, Lei Qiang, and others he just used were all A-class techniques.
How had Xu Jingming achieved such high proficiency in so many high-rank techniques?
