Liu Yang is at least at the Sixth Seal stage of resonant power. Even if he was caught off guard for a moment, Li Luo shouldn't have been able to win against his resonant power defense, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did that guy Liu Yang take money to throw the match?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If so, this fake is too insulting to our intelligence, isn't it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\".\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over at the First Academy, Ti Faqing’s rosy little mouth opened slightly, and question marks seemed to appear over her head. A moment later, she frowned and said, \"What is that guy Liu Yang doing? This is too pathetic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Yunfeng also frowned, then said indifferently, \"He must have underestimated his opponent too much, so he didn't even have time to unleash his resonant power.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too stupid.\" Ti Faqing shook her head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He probably won't be so lucky next time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside her, Lu Qinger gazed at the slender figure standing proudly in the arena holding the iron staff, feeling slightly dazed. It was as if she were seeing the boy from her time in the First Academy—the one full of spirit, smiling as he teased her for her non-standard resonant arts, while simultaneously correcting them for her bit by bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next time...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Qinger’s red lips parted slightly, and she whispered, \"I'm afraid he will win again. He might even win the remaining two matches.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as these words were spoken, many excellent students from the First Academy looked at each other, and some of the boys, in particular, immediately felt dissatisfaction and jealousy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Impossible... You think so highly of him, do you have a thing for Li Luo?\" someone in the crowd jeered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Song Yunfeng’s expression darkened immediately, and he shouted, \"Who is talking nonsense?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swept his sharp gaze across them, and everyone fell silent, not daring to provoke him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Song Yunfeng then looked at Lu Qinger, who was ignoring the jeers, and said indifferently, \"Qinger, he cannot win.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Li Luo, well done!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the astonishment of the First Academy, Zhao Kuo was the first to shout excitedly, followed by cheers from the Second Academy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless of whether Li Luo won because Liu Yang was too careless, the Second Academy had won the first match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The surrounding clamor made Liu Yang’s face turn pale. He struggled to climb to his feet, muttering something about \"I was careless, I didn't dodge,\" but no one paid him any mind now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Idiot.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the cheers from the Second Academy, Bei Kun’s expression became much uglier. He glared angrily at the pale-faced Liu Yang lying on the ground, then said to another person, \"Lu Tai, you go. Be careful not to capsize in the gutter again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boy named Lu Tai was somewhat thin, but he exuded a sense of shrewdness. He didn't say much, merely scanned Li Luo, picked up an iron sword, and stepped into the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the high platform, Xu Shanyue praised with a smile, \"Li Luo’s resonant arts are indeed quite skilled and refined. It’s a real pity; with his mastery of resonant arts, if his resonant power could reach the Fifth Seal, he would likely be able to challenge the vast majority of Sixth Seal opponents.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Feng’s expression was flat as he said, \"It doesn't matter how much of a pity it is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Begin the second match.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it was clear that because of Liu Yang’s crushing defeat, Lin Feng was in a foul mood, so he couldn't be bothered to argue with Xu Shanyue and directly announced the start of the second match.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his voice fell, Lu Tai in the arena did not hesitate to mobilize his resonant power. Fire-red resonant power rose from the surface of his body like a thin layer of flames, emitting a scorching heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the Fifth-grade Fire Resonance that Lu Tai possessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the cautionary tale of Liu Yang, Lu Tai clearly dared not underestimate his opponent again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his flame resonant power rising, Lu Tai gripped his long sword and dashed forward without hesitation. Crimson resonant power flickered on the blade, resembling flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish! Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Streaks of crimson sword shadows directly enveloped Li Luo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Li Luo, no matter what tricks you have, as long as I crush you with my Sixth Seal resonant power, you will undoubtedly lose!\" Lu Tai shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo’s refined resonant arts were no secret at Nanfeng Academy, but no matter how refined the arts were, without sufficient resonant power to support them, they were just like the moon reflected in water—shattering at a single touch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scorching sword wind whistled toward him. Li Luo slowly gripped his iron staff, then retreated with agile steps, dodging the sword wind entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you dodge it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Tai sneered. The next moment, he flicked his wrist, and crimson light surged, transforming into streaks of firelight that whistled toward him like a rain of fire—gorgeous and dangerous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was a mid-grade resonant art, Fire Rain Sword, which was also the resonant art Lu Tai was most proficient in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the many streaks of firelight shot toward him, Li Luo’s iron staff suddenly spun like a windmill, forming an impenetrable defensive barrier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Without resonant power, how can you block my resonant art?\" Lu Tai said dismissively at Li Luo’s actions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang! Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The many streaks of firelight exploded before the iron staff. With the high temperature eroding it, the iron staff in Li Luo’s hand quickly became scorching hot, but just then, a blue light emerged from the staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sizzle!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Smoke rose, obscuring Lu Tai’s vision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet in that very instant, the steam-like smoke was violently torn apart. A staff flashing with a blue luster thrust out, and with lightning speed, it pointed directly at the center of Lu Tai’s brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sudden attack startled Lu Tai. His resonant art had actually been completely blocked by Li Luo?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That’s impossible!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though shocked, Lu Tai was not slow. Crimson resonant power surged on his long sword, and he poured all his strength into a head-on collision with the thrusting staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of metal striking metal rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But something shocking happened: under this collision, the crimson resonant power on Lu Tai’s long sword seemed to be heavily suppressed, and in an instant, it dimmed completely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The iron sword shattered instantly under the erosion of the high temperature and moisture. As the fragments flew, the staff flashing with a blue luster stopped right at the center of Lu Tai’s brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling the stinging pain at his brow, Lu Tai’s face turned deathly pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This exchange happened in the blink of an eye. By the time the crowd regained their senses, Li Luo’s staff was already hovering at Lu Tai’s brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Luo won again?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the crowd had only felt astonishment during the previous match, this time it was truly, genuinely unbelievable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because this time, Lu Tai had not underestimated his opponent at all, and his Sixth Seal resonant power had been used without reservation—yet even so, he had lost to Li Luo?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could this be?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst the many disbelieving gazes, the steam-like smoke lingering at the other end of the staff gradually dissipated, and Li Luo’s figure appeared in full view of everyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hiss!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Long-forgotten sounds of people gasping in cold air, filled with shock, rose one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over at the First Academy, Ti Faqing and Lu Qinger’s beautiful eyes were both wide open. Beside them, Song Yunfeng slapped the wooden pole in front of him, cracking it with a series of fissures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the high platform, Xu Shanyue, Lin Feng, and the other instructors of Nanfeng Academy also had looks of astonishment on their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The old Dean in front narrowed his eyes even further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because they all saw that at this moment, blue resonant power was slowly rising from Li Luo’s body, like layers of green waves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With their discernment, they could naturally tell at a glance that it was the power of Water Resonance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it was common knowledge that Li Luo was born with an Empty Resonance, making it very difficult to cultivate resonant power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But right now...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How had that Water Resonance power appeared?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or could it be... that the current Li Luo was no longer an Empty Resonance, but had instead birthed a Water Resonance?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1488,"2026-06-20T03:27:18.369Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","060b956e4c707e20f014042b580ee89ef5247ace45a94081947f7580fabd059f","king-of-all-manifestations-chapter-20","king-of-all-manifestations-chapter-18",999,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fking-of-all-manifestations-cover.jpg"]
