Chapter 268 -0264: Temporarily First
On the challenge stage, black evil winds swirled around.
Duan Hao and Chen Yu both utilized powerful movent techniques, neither gaining the upper hand over the other.
Suddenly, Chen Yu’s speed increased again, rendering his figure indiscernible.
"Devilish Evil Frenzy Shadow’s third form?”
Inside the pavilion, many instructors showed looks of astonishnt.
This secret technique was of extrely high level, and its speed was among the top of various movent techniques. However, it demanded a lot from the body, and ordinarily, few could cultivate it.
Yet, Chen Yu, who was rely at the Postnatal Late Stage, had already managed to use the third form.
"It took nearly three years to cultivate to the third form,” Liu Xuanzong sighed inwardly.
Moreover, when he had originally cultivated this secret technique, his cultivation level was higher, giving him so advantage.
"We underestimated this kid, the outco of this battle is hard to predict,” so instructors said with a smile, shaking their heads.
"These new students are all extraordinary,” a gray-haired instructor remarked.
Originally, Duan Hao defeating the senior student Cao Zhongtian had been unexpected.
But now, Chen Yu’s displayed strength was on par with Duan Hao’s, and he might even replace him.
Roar! Roar!
A ten-zhang long black wind domain ford on the challenge stage.
Within the black wind domain, Chen Yu’s figure rged with the black fierce wind, elusive and hard to track.
Boom! Hiss!
An ink black Iron Sword, carrying the Devilish Evil Frenzy Wind, swept across.
Duan Hao imdiately reacted, throwing a punch.
Boom Bang!
But due to it being a spontaneous reaction, lacking in stored energy, his punch light was destroyed by Chen Yu.
Thud! Thud!
Duan Hao’s fists vibrated, his arms felt numb, and he took several steps back.
Before he could regain his composure, Chen Yu had appeared behind him, sweeping with his sword again.
Boom Bang Boom!
Within the black evil wind domain, sounds of collisions and explosions were continuous.
At one mont, Duan Hao’s figure was sent flying out of the black wind domain and slid a distance before stabilizing.
"Damn!”
Duan Hao licked the blood from his lips, his eyes dark and ominous.
Had he not also cultivated this secret technique and understood it to so extent, as well as had the enhancent from his Bloodline Power, he might have already lost.
Fortunately, he had left the black wind domain; otherwise, he would not have lasted a few monts and still would have been defeated.
Moreover, after Chen Yu had perford the third form of the secret technique, his body would likely enter a weakened state, giving him a great chance to win.
Roar Huhu~
The black evil wind domain gradually faded.
"Opportunity!” Duan Hao’s eyes flashed with intensity.
The third form of the Devilish Evil Frenzy Shadow put a huge strain on the body, leading to a weakened state afterward. He just needed to seize this mont to launch an aggressive attack and regain the upper hand.
However, contrary to his expectations, though the black evil wind domain had dispersed, Chen Yu was still using the movent secret technique.
Roar~
A shadow rapidly surged forth from within, like a peerless evil demon, stirring up a terrifying black evil wind.
"Evil Qi takes form!”
Chen Yu’s arms flowed with a pitch-black python snake, emitting a daunting dark halo.
With this strike, Chen Yu combined a movent technique charge with a heart burst, making it extrely powerful.
"Tiger Roar Nine Heavens!”
Duan Hao’s eyes focused, instantly stimulating his Bloodline Power and using his unique skill.
A trendously huge black evil tiger, carrying a shocking fierce wind, roared forth.
Boom Bang!
The Black-Scaled Python and the evil tiger collided instantly, their Evil Qi and True Qi tearing at each other and stirring up a black storm.
Boom!
Suddenly, a faintly black giant python burst out of the black storm, striking Duan Hao’s chest.
Clearly, in this showdown, Chen Yu had the upper hand.
Though Duan Hao had the enhancent from his Bloodline Power, Chen Yu’s speed and power amplified by the secret technique, and his grasp of the true essence of evil made his Evil Qi transforming technique even stronger.
Furthermore, with Chen Yu’s heart burst, his True Evil Qi far surpassed others at the sa level, making it hard for Duan Hao, despite his deep martial understanding, to resist.
Splat!
A gush of fresh blood erupted, and Duan Hao’s figure rapidly retreated, leaving the challenge stage.
"Duan Hao has lost!”
The surroundings erupted in noise.
As a prodigy among the new students, having unexpectedly defeated the senior student Cao Zhongtian, he had not held onto the first position for long before it was snatched by another new student.
This year’s competition among the new students was beyond everyone’s expectations.
Of course, the most surprising was that Chen Yu had taken the top spot.
Before the competition, fellow students speculated about the chances of victory for several hot contenders for first place, so even gambled on the outco, but Chen Yu was not ntioned at all.
"I noticed that Duan Hao’s injuries from his previous fight with Cao Zhongtian had not fully healed, otherwise he wouldn’t have lost!” a senior student comnted regretfully.
But regardless, Duan Hao had lost, and that was a fact.
"Could this competition’s first place be Chen Yu?” soone wondered aloud.
Indeed, Cao Zhongtian had lost to Duan Hao, and Duan Hao had lost to Chen Yu.
In this competition, Duan Hao was very likely to finish first.
"This… it’s impossible, Duan Hao actually lost to this kid!” Cao Zhongtian gaped, sowhat unable to believe.
After all, Duan Hao was the one who had defeated him, yet he had imdiately then lost to another, making it hard for Cao Zhongtian to accept.
Below the challenge stage.
"I lost to him!” Duan Hao’s eyes appeared vacant.
He had always regarded Situ Lin Yu as his real rival, while Chen Yu was just a secondary opponent.
But now, he had been defeated by his secondary opponent.
However, Duan Hao’s eyes soon regained their luster.
"Though I lost today, next ti, I must defeat him!”
Duan Hao clenched his fists tightly, hands trembling slightly, a firm belief taking root in his heart.
In the center of everyone’s attention, Chen Yu took the first seat.
Imdiately, he sat down cross-legged, consuming several Elixirs to conceal the secret of his exceptional physical strength.
anwhile, Duan Hao approached the stone platform where Chen Yu had been sitting and temporarily occupied the sixth place.
"The second round of the ranking competition has ended. The third round begins now.”
The Black-armored Middle-aged Man announced again.
In the ranking competition, each participant had two challenge opportunities. A defeat would cost them one, while a victory wouldn’t deduct any.
Although two rounds had passed, many still had one challenge opportunity left.
And people like Chen Yu, Duan Hao, and Situ Lin Yu all still had two challenge opportunities.
The third round of challenges began.
Since so participants had already lost their two challenge opportunities, this round progressed more quickly.
During this ti, a few attempted to strike for higher rankings, resulting in both failures and successes.
Nie Xuan remained in the seventh position.
Ahead of him were Chen Yu, Situ Lin Yu, Cao Zhongtian, Luo Yongguang, Zhang Nan, and Duan Hao.
Soon it was Duan Hao’s turn again.
"Situ Lin Yu, it’s our turn to clash!”
This ti, Duan Hao challenged Situ Lin Yu.
Among the new students of the academy, he had two rivals, naly Chen Yu and Situ Lin Yu.
He had already faced Chen Yu, leaving only Situ Lin Yu now.
"Hehe, just sitting here since the start of the competition is really boring,”
Situ Lin Yu said with a nonchalant smile, his figure leaping up and landing on the challenge platform.
"This Situ Lin Yu is as troubleso to deal with as Duan Hao and Chen Yu.”
Cao Zhongtian couldn’t help shaking his head.
What’s with this year’s new students? Each one is incredibly strong, leaving no face for the seniors.
You should know, in previous competitions, a senior always ranked first, and it was considered good if a newcor made it into the top three.
Whoosh!
Duan Hao moved first, swift like a fierce cheetah closing in rapidly on Situ Lin Yu, sweeping out with a punch.
Swoosh!
Situ Lin Yu’s body jumped up, soaring into the air to dodge the strike and countered with a palm.
A mass of grey ghostly fog drifted ominously towards Duan Hao.
"Shatter!”
Duan Hao swept his leg out, repelling it.
However, a sinister and eerie spiritual power burst through his leg in an instant, affecting Duan Hao’s ntal realm.
"Get lost!”
Duan Hao’s expression twisted in struggle, he roared furiously, an astonishing surge of fierce Evil Qi bursting forth, scattering it.
Roar~
Duan Hao’s gaze sharpened, quickly executing “Devilish Evil Frenzy Shadow” hoping for a swift decisive battle.
However, he only perford the first move, since in previous fight sessions he had already used this Secret Technique, and his body hadn’t fully recovered.
Duan Hao’s speed surged, approaching Situ Lin Yu once more.
But Situ Lin Yu just gave a faint smile, his movent technique becoming mysteriously unfathomable.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
His figure flickered, shrouded with grey fog, turning into several ghostly shadows, flitting unpredictably around the challenge platform.
"Ghost Shadow Step, third level!”
Many students showed expressions of shock.
Although “Ghost Shadow Step” wasn’t as powerful as “Devilish Evil Frenzy Shadow,” it was still a top-tier movent technique.
Situ Lin Yu had cultivated “Ghost Shadow Step” to such a level, he didn’t need to fear Duan Hao.
"Hmm!”
Duan Hao frowned, a layer of black wind patterns erged on the surface of his body, his speed increasing once again.
Situ Lin Yu was proficient in spiritual secret techniques, and Duan Hao was reluctant to be entangled with him for long, preferring a quick and decisive battle!
The two figures intertwined back and forth on the platform.
Duan Hao’s moves were fierce and straightforward like lightning, whereas Situ Lin Yu was like an evil specter, his movents unpredictable and elusive.
Boom!
Duan Hao fiercely swept out a leg, a black wind evil dragon charging directly at Situ Lin Yu.
Situ Lin Yu stretched out his palms, striking out a mass of sinister ghost fog.
Bang!
The ghost fog shattered against the dragon shadow, creating a True Qi explosion, the shockwave spreading out.
Thud thud!
Situ Lin Yu staggered back several steps, employing defensive maneuvers to block the residual attacks.
"Alright, warm-up’s over, ti for you to taste my techniques!”
Situ Lin Yu still maintained a casual stance, revealing a subtly confident smile.
Hum~
Situ Lin Yu’s eyes emitted bizarre fluctuations, turning ominously black as if depicting an endless abyss.
The mont his gaze made contact, Duan Hao felt an overpoweringly terrifying spiritual power sweep towards him.
Everything in sight beca dim, and the figure of Situ Lin Yu blurred.
"Get out!”
Duan Hao bellowed fiercely, his ntal realm emitting a trendous surge of murderous Qi.
"Hehe, not bad!”
Situ Lin Yu smiled lightly.
Swoosh!
His figure drifted unpredictably, his hand waving and sending a mass of grey fog flying from his sleeve.
When the fog dispersed, a grey creature appeared, small in body but with a disproportionately large head, pointy long ears, and a pair of large eyes that swirled with dark light.
"This is… ‘Evil Spirit’!”
Cao Zhongtian’s eyes widened in shock.
"Situ Lin Yu has already cultivated an ‘Evil Spirit’?”
Several instructors showed expressions of astonishnt, looking towards the instructors from Evil Spirit Institute.
Evil Spirit is an extrely powerful and profound secret technique from the evil path, usually beyond the reach of ordinary Evil Cultivators.
Those who successfully cultivate it can condense an Evil Spirit and continuously nurture and strengthen its power.
So practitioners on the evil path even have Evil Spirits whose strength surpasses that of the cultivator themselves. They themselves need not act, as the Evil Spirit can handle all enemies.
"A true genius of the evil path!”
Even the instructors and several students from Yunyang Academy showed expressions of surprise, scrutinizing Situ Lin Yu.
