Chapter 22: A Duel Beyond Grandmasters

High above the sky.

The Source Power in Qin Changhe's body was unleashed to the extreme.

He looked at Lu Li, who was like a flat boat in the vast pressure, his old face showing a bit of arrogance.

"Kid, you and I are both Grandmasters; we should fight fairly. I didn't want to bully you by relying on my status and unleash Source Power, but since you don't know how to advance or retreat, you must be defeated today."

"Must be defeated!"

Lu Li's eyes narrowed slightly, erupting with a trace of strong cold light.

First, four Grandmasters joined forces.

Then, a Grandmaster like Qin Changhe came.

For the sake of a Tiansheng Academy Vice Principal position that didn't belong to them, they actually bullied him to this extent. If he really lost here, I'm afraid endless trouble would follow.

The Martial Dao Qin family is truly domineering!

In Lu Li's eyes, that trace of cold light turned into a strong murderous intent.

Inside his body, his aura surged instantly!

Qi and blood rushed to the sky, like a rainstorm washing out, stirring the entire sky.

"It's useless. I have surpassed everything; this is a difference in the essence of life. Don't struggle anymore."

Qin Changhe's expression was cold.

Taking a step, he arrived in front of Lu Li, raised his right palm, and slammed it down.

"Bang!"

The palm wind was like thunder!

Vast power swept out.

But in the end, that palm stopped three inches away from Lu Li, blocked by layers of defense, unable to move forward any further.

"Hmm?"

Qin Changhe's face sank.

Although he didn't use martial skills for this palm, he unleashed origin power. With the power of Source Power that surpassed essence, no matter how talented the kid in front of him was, he couldn't block it!

But now, how could there be such a powerful force blocking him?

"Are you surprised?"

Lu Li raised his head, looking over with cold eyes.

"In Martial Dao cultivation, Source Power is also just a starting point. You have only just completed the first evolution and dare to talk about surpassing everything. You are truly fearless!"

"Presumptuous! I have cultivated for nearly a hundred years; it's not your turn to lecture me."

Qin Changhe was furious.

He waved his palms suddenly, and that vast Yin and Yang power appeared again, black and white colors flowing, spirit and energy combined, like Taiji manifestation, blooming with waves of terrifying origin power.

The Eight Extremes Palm was unleashed again!

And this time, Qin Changhe unleashed it with Source Power, perfect and flawless, surpassing the previous ten times over.

"Go!"

Qin Changhe roared, and that supreme strike blasted toward Lu Li.

But Lu Li remained unmoved.

Around his body, three meridians flashed with spiritual light, vast power flowing, gathering at his fingertips, a point of golden light condensing. The moment it appeared, heaven and earth dimmed.

Extinction!

Slaughter!

Like a peerless Fierce Beast gestating within, it made people have the thought of being unable to compete.

Diamond Finger!

After several evolutions, Lu Li had already deduced it to the extreme. In those three meridians, he could gather all his strength, and the star point unleashed could pierce through everything.

"Break!"

Lu Li shouted lightly.

That point of golden starlight shot out, like cosmic aurora, piercing through the endless sky.

"Gah!"

Qin Changhe stopped his figure, his aura dissipating.

He lowered his head, looking at his pierced heart; the last bit of power of the Eight Extremes Palm also dissipated.

Staggering!

He painfully arrived in front of Lu Li.

"So, you also broke through to this step!"

After a light sigh.

Qin Changhe's body softened, and he fell toward the Martial Arena.

"Clan Uncle!"

"Senior!"

Several exclamations sounded one after another.

Endless fear also arose in their hearts at the same time.

Qin Changhe was defeated!

Defeated in the hands of a young man who had broken through to Martial Master for less than half a month!

That was Qian Cheng's number one Grandmaster!

That kid was young; did he really have such terrifying combat power?

Just as they found it hard to believe, from far beyond the sky, a roar suddenly came.

"Dare to kill my Qin family member, looking for death!"

The voice was majestic!

A terrifying pressure swept over.

That pressure spanned the sky, coming from a thousand feet away, overwhelming, vast and infinite, instantly enveloping the entire Martial Arena, and behind that endless pressure, an old man in hemp clothes stepped out.

As soon as the old man appeared, the pressure between heaven and earth was like a monstrous wave, rolling and rising, constantly squeezing toward Lu Li.

In an instant, Lu Li felt his body was about to be completely torn apart.

"Qin Muzhi, you dare to take action without authorization!"

Deep in the academy, a roar suddenly came.

Where the voice passed!

That terrifying pressure dissipated.

"Zhao Xuanfeng, you dare to protect him!"

"Hmph, dare to run wild in Tiansheng Academy, get out."

Two cold shouts came out.

Another giant palm came across the void from afar, the giant palm constantly extending, covering the sky and the sun, as if breaking the sky, falling directly on the old man in hemp clothes with terrifying power.

"Pfft!"

The old man in hemp clothes spat out a mouthful of blood, his figure retreating rapidly.

Seeing that palm still chasing, he couldn't help but let out a strange cry, turned around, and fled in a hurry.

A moment later, Zhao Xuanfeng's figure appeared above the sky. He looked at Lu Li, his eyes showing a bit of complexity.

The previous battle!

After Qin Changhe unleashed Source Power, he thought Lu Li would definitely be defeated.

Lu Li's talent was excellent!

But it was a pity that the time since breaking through to Martial Master was too short.

Wanting to defeat Source Power by talent alone was simply impossible.

He was already prepared to take action at any time.

But he didn't expect that in the final strike, it was Qin Changhe who was killed. This far exceeded his expectations, making Lu Li's status in his heart rise by a large margin again.

"Kid, you are very good." Zhao Xuanfeng praised sincerely.

"But in the end, the Principal still had to take action."

Lu Li smiled bitterly.

Although he didn't know who that Qin Muzhi was, at the moment of contact, he already knew that the person's combat power far exceeded Qin Changhe's, having broken through to the true Martial Spirit realm.

Such a powerhouse, he was temporarily unable to deal with.

"Haha, if even Qin Muzhi didn't have the need for me to take action, then you kid would really be going to heaven."

Zhao Xuanfeng laughed.

Turning around, his origin surged, and a grand voice came out.

"From today on, Lu Li is the Vice Principal of Tiansheng Academy, in charge of the academy library. Anyone who dares to disobey is an enemy of me, Zhao Xuanfeng!"

The voice was magnificent.

It spread throughout the entire academy.

Suppressing all opposition in the academy!

Beside him, Lu Li felt grateful. With this shock, his status in the academy was completely solidified.

After a long time.

That voice gradually dissipated.

Zhao Xuanfeng flashed and brought Lu Li to the Martial Arena.

He waved his hand and threw Qin Changhe's corpse in front of Qin Wanli.

"Qin Muzhi has already rolled away, do you still need someone to send you off?"

"We wouldn't dare, we wouldn't dare!"

The four shook their heads repeatedly.

Martial Masters might be strong outside, but facing the Tiansheng Academy Principal, they were simply not enough. They hurriedly took Qin Changhe's corpse and fled toward the outside of the academy in a panic.

After the four completely disappeared, Lu Li thanked him and returned to the library.
