Chapter 525: The Spiritual Root Has Sprouted!

~6 min read 1,124 words

So in today's match, they can only win; they cannot lose!

"Charge!"

After Nanguo Buxie finished speaking, both of them exerted force with their feet and charged at Ye Xiaohu and Ye Xiaochen.

Beneath their feet, the formation moved along with them.

As long as they are not too far apart, they maintain the formation.

Facing Nanguo Buxie and Nanguo Qingyuan, who had just taken the True Yuan Pill, Xiao Hu and Xiao Chen chose to avoid their sharpness; when the attacks came, they chose to retreat as a way to advance.

Before their strike could land, other attacks came down like a sudden rain.

Xiao Hu and Xiao Chen exchanged a glance, and their auras shifted.

"Charge!"

Their auras were quite complex, seeming to be a synthesis of various previous skills.

But not entirely.

"This is... the Western Extremity Myriad Methods Flow!"

The so-called Western Extremity Myriad Methods Flow is not a specific technique, but a style.

As the strongest region of the Xuanmiao Continent, Western Extremity's cultivators excel at taking strengths to offset weaknesses, integrating and penetrating.

After mastering some schools' skills, they blend them with other schools' to create new techniques.

This is the core of the Myriad Methods Flow.

Xiao Hu and Xiao Chen, who displayed the Myriad Methods Flow, took the various skills they had shown before, integrated them, and created new techniques and a new style.

With the Myriad Methods Flow's support, even Nanguo Buxie and Nanguo Qingyuan, who had taken the True Yuan Pill and were bolstered by the formation, had little advantage.

For a moment, on the battle platform, four figures darted up and down, back and forth, dazzling the onlookers.

Attacks continually struck the ground or the boundary walls, producing echoes and kicking up dust.

In this melee, all four displayed abilities beyond ordinary humans.

Whether in explosive power or speed, among their peers, none could surpass them!

"Damn it, we can't keep dragging this out!"

The True Yuan Pill's effect is limited; they must defeat Ye Xiaohu and Ye Xiaochen before it wears off.

"Brother, let's unleash our ultimate move!"

"Alright!"

Just as they were about to unleash their so-called ultimate move, a voice stopped them.

"I suggest you guys just hold back."

These words were spoken by Xiao Hu.

"What do you mean?" Nanguo Buxie shot a fierce glare at Ye Xiaohu.

"It means your ultimate move is useless against us."

"Blatant lies!"

"Don't believe me?"

Xiao Hu and Xiao Chen revealed a wicked smile; instantly, their forms vanished from the spot, their ghostly footwork making it impossible to track them.

In the next instant, they appeared within the formation.

They stood behind Nanguo Buxie and Nanguo Qingyuan.

Those outside had no time to warn them; each delivering a kick, they sent Nanguo Qingyuan and Nanguo Buxie flying, then they fell off the platform.

The outcome was decided.

Watching those two sorry figures tumble down beneath the platform, covered in dust, the Academy disciples present could not recover for a long time.

Is it really over just like that?

The turn of events far exceeded their expectations.

They all firmly believed that the Nanguo siblings, who had taken the Ninth Grade True Yuan Pill, and Ye Xiaohu and Ye Xiaochen still had a tough battle ahead.

Who would have thought it would end in just a moment?

"Wow, Xiao Hu and Xiao Chen, you're amazing!"

Hong Wu leapt three feet high, more excited than anyone.

On the contrary, Gu Wuyou standing nearby had a blank expression, feeling as if he had been deceived...

"Ye Xiaohu and Ye Xiaochen, you're utterly shameless, actually hiding your strength!"

Ling Xueyao noticed the clue.

With that final move, Ye Xiaohu and Ye Xiaochen deliberately revealed their true strength.

They are certainly not a low-grade Xuan Sect; they are a high-grade Xuan Sect!

"Is there a rule against hiding one's strength? If your child has the capability, feel free to let them conceal it whenever they want."

These words were spoken by Ye Qingran.

It sounded quite familiar.

These were exactly the words Ling Xueyao had said when Hong Wu earlier questioned whether the Nanguo Buxie siblings' pill consumption was a violation.

Now, she questioned Ye Xiaohu and Ye Xiaochen for hiding their strength, but Ye Qingran retorted with a similar tone, leaving her speechless for a moment.

"Are you playing with us?!"

Nanguo Buxie sat up, clutching his chest, his face full of anger.

"If you don't hide your strength, would you still agree to fight us?"

Nanguo Buxie felt like vomiting blood.

"Everyone saw, right? We brothers didn't enter through the back door; we got into the Heavenly Class by our own strength. From now on, whoever dares to question us again will not be treated politely!"

Upon hearing this, the Academy disciples' expressions varied.

Even though Ye Xiaohu and Ye Xiaochen lost to the Nanguo Buxie siblings today, the abilities they displayed were already enough to explain everything.

They have enough qualifications to enter the Heaven Class!

Even one could say, the Heaven Class being able to recruit students with such extraordinary talent is a blessing for the Academy.

"Ah!"

At that moment, Nanguo Buxie cried out in pain, his face suddenly turning deathly pale.

"My son, what's wrong with you?" Ling Xueyao's face drained of color, and Nangong Han flew toward Nanguo Buxie without a word.

"My stomach hurts so much!"

Nanguo Buxie spoke weakly, biting his lip.

"Ye Xiaohu Ye Xiaochen, what did you do to my attendant?"

Ling Xueyao bared her teeth in a savage glare as she demanded.

Xiaohu Xiaocheng looked utterly innocent: "We didn't do anything."

"If he didn't do it, how could he be like this? Ye Xiaohu Ye Xiaochen, if anything happens to my attendant, I'll have you bury yourselves with him!"

Killing intent spread everywhere.

Ye Qingran's face suddenly darkened.

Her eyes were as cold as ice.

She flew to Xiaohu Xiaocheng's side and gently stroked their heads.

"Mother, we didn't lay a hand on him."

"Mother knows." Ye Qingran's gentle voice seemed capable of dispelling all gloom.

"Ling Xueyao, your son's Spiritual Root is merely growing; he won't die."

Ye Qingran's tone was as cold as frost.

What?

Ling Xueyao stared in shock.

The other Academy disciples were also stunned.

Ye Qingran said, Nanguo Buxie's Spiritual Root is growing?

"Imperial Attendant, embrace the primordial and guard the unity—quickly, let the Spiritual Root grow as lush as possible!" Nangong Han reminded Nanguo Buxie in his ear.

Upon learning that his Spiritual Root was growing, Nanguo Buxie no longer had any worries, sat cross-legged, and began to guide his Spiritual Root.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on Nanguo Buxie, wanting to know what level his Spiritual Root could reach.
