Chapter 269: Single-Handed Annihilation! Is This Really Mo Da

The Bai Shan team's elemental wind-type adept, though at peak third-rank, possessed only a B-grade ability.

It was expected that Xu Jingming, a third-rank upper adept with an S-grade ability, would block the wind blade.

But what stunned everyone most was the final wind blade—the S-grade combat technique "Dimensional Wind Blade"!

Yet it too was blocked, which was utterly absurd!

Dozens of high-definition cameras simultaneously filmed around the arena.

They replayed the entire process of Xu Jingming blocking the Dimensional Wind Blade on the holographic projection.

The massive wind blade, seemingly capable of tearing apart space, was clearly visible.

When it struck the golden thunder defense shield, it vanished silently, like a drop of water sinking into the ocean.

"To me, it looks just like a regular elemental defense net—how could it block damage from an S-grade combat technique?"

The audience seats held no shortage of elemental adepts.

In fact, any elemental adept

could form a defense net around their body to block damage.

Such a net might still offer some effect against weak attacks.

But no one had ever directly negated an S-grade combat technique!

"Is this 'liquid condensation' proficiency?"

"Indeed, the energy fluctuation on the thunder net is too intense."

"No wonder it could block an S-grade combat technique—this isn't an ordinary thunder net!"

"......"

Compared to ordinary spectators, the sharp-eyed coaches from other schools in the inner zone spotted something unusual.

Xu Jingming's thunder defense net wasn't ordinary energy form!

It was compressed to the extreme, resembling liquid!

Naturally, its defensive power was immensely formidable.

"Xu Jingming is only a freshman, yet he's already reached liquid condensation—how terrifying is his comprehension?!"

The coaches from other schools couldn't help but silently marvel.

If a fourth-year student had reached liquid condensation, they wouldn't be surprised.

But Xu Jingming is only nineteen, and still just a freshman!

Even more astonishing, his cultivation hasn't lagged—he's reached third-rank upper!

"His rank and ability proficiency are both this high—how the hell did he manage it?!"

"Boundless potential! Truly boundless potential!"

Hearing the continuous exclamations of admiration from coaches of other schools about Xu Jingming,

Vice Principal Ling Shuang of Mo Da's coaching area slightly lifted her crimson lips.

Are you surprised now?

Wait till you see what comes next!

"Holy shit!"

On the arena,

the Bai Shan team's wind-type adept was stunned—his S-grade combat technique had just been nullified?

It was unbelievable!

Fortunately, at this moment, Captain Ji Hui and the others had reached Xu Jingming's front.

He shifted his target and began unleashing abilities and combat techniques toward Kong Shi and the others behind.

"Xu Jingming, if you'd charged with your team, I might not have been able to handle you.

But unfortunately, you left your team—don't blame me then! Frenzied Slash!"

As captain, Ji Hui held no contempt for Xu Jingming—he opened with an S-grade combat technique—Frenzied Slash!!

His right-hand greatsword seemed engulfed in blazing fury as it slashed toward Xu Jingming!

At that exact moment, a dark-gold spear wreathed in golden thunder shot out!

The spear began at incredible speed, then slowed slightly.

Yet that slight hesitation—

when the spear tip struck the greatsword—produced a deafening "CLANG!"

Instantly, the entire greatsword flew from Ji Hui's grip!

Spinning as it crashed far away onto the ground!

A single strike—directly disarmed him!

"How is this possible?!"

Ji Hui no longer cared for the searing pain in his right hand—he was utterly stunned by this sudden turn.

In fact,

Xu Jingming had just poured all his ability into the Flowing Cloud Golden Blade Spear, increasing its weight to its maximum limit of six tons!!

The immense weight, combined with Xu Jingming's terrifying kinetic force, produced this result.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

At this moment, Vice Captain Ke Liang, wielding a longsword, and another assassin with a dagger also rushed forward!

One attacked from the front, the other from behind.

No matter which side he defended, the other would strike!

A normal adept would be overwhelmed by such a killing tactic.

This is precisely the challenge of one-vs-many!

Yet Xu Jingming's expression remained calm—he didn't even bother to use his spear.

With a thought, the golden thunder net surrounding his body suddenly expanded outward!

Crackling!

The instant Ke Liang and the other man touched the golden thunder net, they were blasted backward six or seven meters as if struck by lightning!

"Third-rank peak adepts... still too weak..."

Xu Jingming didn't even glance at Ke Liang and the other.

He raised his left hand and clenched it slightly toward the wind-type adept and the support adept releasing wind blades at a distance:

"Thunder Prison!"

As ranged casters,

these two Bai Shan team members weren't standing still—they'd been constantly moving.

Yet endless golden thunder still locked onto their positions and swallowed them whole!

When the golden thunder dispersed, both were enclosed in energy shields that activated upon detecting life-threatening danger.

Of course, this meant they were both eliminated!

Whoosh!!

When this scene appeared before the entire audience, a wave of stunned shouts erupted.

"I thought Xu Jingming leaving his team was suicide—turns out I'm the fool!"

"One spear knocks the Bai Da captain's weapon away, his ability surge knocks two others back—what kind of power is this?"

"I thought he was charging toward the front row, but a single 'Thunder Prison' eliminated two from the back!"

"My god, is there anything more absurd than this?"

"......"

A chorus of incredulous shouts erupted across the massive stadium seating.

Instant kill!

They had just witnessed an almost-instant kill in the National University League, a tournament gathering the nation's top talents!

And it wasn't even a one-on-one instant kill!

It was one man, enduring multiple opponents' attacks, single-handedly eliminating two in an instant!

"Damn..."

"This is Mo Da's S-grade? So brutal!"

"Whoa, did Bai Da get completely overrun by Xu Jingming alone?"

Even though the Bai Shan Institute of Ability team ranked last among all ten universities,

they were still selected from thousands of ability universities.

Yet now, Xu Jingming had single-handedly crushed them with near-total dominance!

"Mo Da's Kong Shi and the others have moved up too, but they don't even need to do anything—they just clean up the mess."

As the audience said,

Bai Da's captain Ji Hui, having had his S-grade technique nullified by disarming, was in a state of existential shock.

As for the other two, though they'd only briefly touched Xu Jingming's Dou Tian Divine Thunder,

they were now charred black all over, severely injured, lying on the ground barely breathing—incapable of further combat.

Thus, Kong Shi and the others eliminated them effortlessly, without lifting a finger.

"All members of Bai Shan Institute of Ability have lost combat capability..."

"This team match is won by the Metropolis Institute of Ability!"

With the last contestant from Bingshan Institute of Esoteric Abilities eliminated, the league referee promptly announced the results.
