Chapter 996: Surge in Spiritual Strength
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
The spiritual attacks used by Zhiruo and Min didn't create any sounds after they clashed against each other, though both of them took a step back.
Min spat out a mouthful of blood that quickly dyed her clothes red.
Min was lost in this round of spiritual attacks. Meanwhile, some of the other female disciples were extremely confused since they had simply seen Min spit a mouthful of blood out after the flute's and bell's ringing sounds occurred.
Spiritual attacks were invisible and hard to avoid and some disciples had no clue what had just happened as if they were exposed to a brand new aspect of combat.
"Second round, Zhiruo won," announced the Hundred-Flower Palace Sect Master.
The third contestant was Rong Li and her opponent was Ziyi Wang.
After a short battle, the result came out with Rong Li as the victor.
So far, Flower Fairy, Zhiruo Zhao, Rong Li were the remaining three out of the six most powerful female disciples. The new Saintess for the Hundred-Flower Palace would be selected among them.
Qingfeng got the first draw since he had won the battle in the first round. His opponent was Zhiruo, the girl with the bell on her wrist that could cause tremendous spiritual damage.
Qingfeng was standing on the stage while looking serious. He barely knew anything about spiritual attacks since all that he learned was the practice of self-cultivation.
Zhiruo slightly shook the bell on her wrist and released a green stream of soundwaves. It was destructive enough to penetrate Qingfeng's brain, wanting to destroy his soul.
Qingfeng felt like his brain was splitting apart as if his spiritual energy was severely damaged, as sweat started to drip down along his pale face.
Flower Fairy started to worry and tightened her little hands when she saw Qingfeng was struggling.
Little Cui asked beside her, "Qingfeng is injured now, what should we do?"
Flower Fairy shook her head and replied helplessly, "This is a battle. I can't do anything unless Qingfeng gives in."
Would Qingfeng give in? Absolutely not! He was never a quitter.
Boom!
Qingfeng heard a tremendous rumble from within his soul as if his brain was splitting from deep inside. A Golden Dragon Phantom was shout out from the Golden Globe in his mind. This was the spiritual energy from the Fire Dragon.
The Fire Dragon hid deep inside Qingfeng's mind and wouldn't come out until he was in danger.
He opened his mouth as he ate all of the energy from Zhiruo's spiritual attacks directly and turned it into his own spiritual energy.
The Fire Dragon was one of the most formidable Godly Dragons in the world and was still a Godly Dragon even though he was severely injured and was only left with a remnant of a soul after the World War thousands of years ago. A lean camel was still bigger than a horse, and the remnant of the soul of the Godly Dragon could still devour Zhiruo's spiritual attacks.
Certainly, the Fire Dragon didn't just eat it all by himself. He left a part of the spiritual energy for Qingfeng after he swallowed Zhiruo's spiritual attack…
After, Qingfeng's brain also absorbed a part of the spiritual energy, and he suddenly felt his spiritual energy multiply.
There were different categories among spiritual energies. They varied from the lowest to the top of the first grade, to the second grade…third, fourth… up to the ninth grade.
The first grade was the lowest and ninth grade was the strongest. In addition, each grade was also divided into the beginner stage, middle stage, and advanced stage.
The higher the spiritual energy, the stronger the attack power, and the more powerful the person was.
Qingfeng's original spiritual energy stayed in the beginner stage, but he now had upgraded to the middle tier after absorbing Zhiruo's spiritual energy.
"Buddy, let me teach you a secret spiritual technique—the Spiral Waves," a voice spoke in Qingfeng's mind
"The Spirit is invisible, you can't see it but they are there in an ethereal form. You can navigate it with the Spiritual Secret Technique from your brain and form the Spiral Waves..." The Fire Dragon was teaching Qingfeng how to form the Spiral Waves.
Qingfeng picked this technique up in a second with his naturally strong comprehension skills. However, he still pretended to be injured to try and trick Zhiruo.
"Qingfeng, you are at the mercy of my Spiritual Attacks. Just give in," Zhiruo said.
Meanwhile, QIngfeng had already formed his Spiral Waves. He looked at Zhiruo with a weird, funny smile while calculating the trajectory of the Spiral Waves in his mind.
Zhiruo loosened her guard since she couldn't possibly have foreseen Qingfeng learning a spiritual attack during the fight. She had no clue that danger was coming for her at this exact moment.
Qingfeng formed a green spiral wave with the spiritual energy in his mind. It was a rapid spiritual attack that penetrated Zhiruo's brain in a flash.
Zhiruos' spiritual mind was smashed and torn apart. She screamed in pain as her soul was damaged.
She couldn't move since her spiritual energy was severely hindered so she now had no choice but to stay in the same spot.
Bang!
Qingfeng rushed up to her and kicked her butt off the arena without mercy nor hesitation.
How rude! All the disciples were shocked when they saw what Qingfeng did. This man was indeed brutal. He actually kicked their senior sister out of the arena on her butt.
What a poor girl, the spot where Qingfeng kicked her on her butt must hurt a lot. He was such a jerk! All the disciples were furious about his behavior.
Why would you have to kick our senior sister's butt when you could kick other parts? How would she get over this shame?
Besides those disciples, even little Cui was a bit mad. "Fairy, how could Qingfeng kick a lady's butt. He is such a jerk," little Cui complained angrily to Flower Fairy.
Flower Fairy also didn't know how to react to Qingfeng's rudeness, though she decided to ignore little Cui and not comment since Qingfeng was fighting for her.
Zhiruo, who had stood up after landing outside the arena, was filled with anger and shame. Her face had flushed red, like a glass of wine, because of her anger.
"How dare this stupid jerk hurt my butt," Zhiruo was pissed while rubbing her burning butt. She wanted to beat the crap out of Qingfeng but she had to calm herself down since she wasn't strong enough to do that.
She was livid once she recalled how Qingfeng had pretended to be injured and not know how to use spiritual attacks.
"You do know how to attack one's spirit. You are just a liar," Zhiruo yelled while controlling her frustration.
What an asshole, who had not only kicked her butt but also tricked her.
