I Am Overlord

Chapter 874: Looking Forward to Our Next Battle

Zhan Wushuang was using his strongest attack, and it was unlikely that Money could dodge it. However, Xiang Shaoyun surprised everyone and took on the attack on behalf of Money.

He activated his nine-colored fog while the saber in his hand vanished. He streaked forward like a gust of wind and brandished his bare hands with his hair whipping about, looking like a fiendgod that had descended upon the world. He looked valiant and carefree, his eyes were electrifying, and his fist intent was shockingly powerful. He shone with a brilliant radiance, causing all the stars in the sky to stir, creating a shocking phenomenon.

Cosmos Dao Destroying Fist!

Xiang Shaoyun had been gathering his strength for a while. He long had the intention of having a head-on clash with Zhan Wushuang once, testing the might of his nine-colored fog. The many disciples were astonished as they had not expected Xiang Shaoyun to have the courage to actually face Zhan Wushuang so decisively. But when they saw the nine-colored fog, their eyes widened with disbelief.

An energy with nine colors was most definitely a result of combining the nine powers. No other energy was known to have nine colors.

Zhan Wushuang's Unrivaled Sky Crushing Punch and Xiang Shaoyun's Cosmos Dao Destroying Fist were incredibly rare, powerful fist techniques.

Two fists met, and a blinding explosion erupted.

The surrounding disciples were forced to continually retreat. Even the stronger ones who had stayed relatively near no longer dared to stay, including Baili Yixiao.

Inwardly, Baili Yixiao praised, What a fine fist technique!

It was unknown if he was praising Zhan Wushuang or Xiang Shaoyun or the both of them.

Rumble! Rumble!

The collision of the two fists was akin to the collision of dozens of mountains. Numerous boulders tumbled down while one shockwave after another rippled out. Even far away, the disciples still felt a sharp pain on their faces from the spreading impact.

After wreaking havoc for a while, the energies of the two fists finally dispersed, revealing two figures that had both been blasted far away. It was unknown which of them was victorious.

"Very well, Xiang Shaoyun...and your mount as well. I, Zhan Wushuang, will remember both of you. After entering the Soul Foundation Realm, I will crush all of you!" roared Zhan Wushuang with an unwilling tone before dashing toward the people from the Crushing Sky. He then left with them.

"I look forward to our next battle," replied Xiang Shaoyun.

As for Money, he bared his fangs and brandished his claws as he said, "Kid, don't let me see you again. I will beat you up each time I see you."

The eyes of the numerous disciples nearly popped out from sheer shock when they heard Money's words. All of them thought, Probably only a fellow this fearless will dare to speak like that to Zhan Wushuang.

While Zhan Wushuang was leaving with his people, Xiang Shaoyun coughed out a mouthful of blood. A deep fist imprint could be seen on his chest, and it seemed deep enough to touch his bone. In fact, it was as though the fist had actually punched through his body.

But at the same time, the distant Zhan Wushuang also coughed a mouthful of blood. He could no longer suppress the roiling blood in his body.

"Chief!" shouted the Crushing Sky members worriedly.

"I'm fine. Let's go," replied Zhan Wushuang weakly as they left at an even faster speed.

Inwardly, he thought, There is actually such domineering power in the world? Is cultivating nine powers the actual true path to power?

One ought to know that Xiang Shaoyun was two stages lower than him, yet the two were evenly matched in a head-on clash. In fact, Zhan Wushuang was actually injured. Thus, he had no choice but to place more importance on the nine-colored fog Xiang Shaoyun used.

As for his injuries, nobody pitied him. Instead, they were filled with admiration toward him. A freak capable of fighting evenly against Zhan Wushuang was definitely among the top three disciples of the academy in terms of strength.

As Xiang Shaoyun's body started swaying, Money streaked over and supported him. At the same time, the Overlord Legion people also quickly came over and stood guard around him, protecting him from any sneak attacks.

"Just like that, this wondrous battle worthy of being etched into the annals of history has ended. But I wonder who's the actual victor."

"It is undeniable that Zhan Wushuang's fists are unrivaled. After all, he had fought Xiang Shaoyun after several intense battles. He definitely has the greater strength. Xiang Shaoyun loses out in cultivation level. If he is given two more years, perhaps he can catch up."

"Xiang Shaoyun has already merged the nine powers. The moment this news spreads, the many ancient organizations of the dominion will take note of him. Perhaps he can really create the strongest path of cultivation. I really look forward to the future."

"Alright, enough talking. We need to go. One day, I will catch up to them as well!"

...

Baili Yixiao, Lei Bao, Yu Ziyang, Xiao Xie, and the others left one after another. They all knew that the rankings on the Dragon Phoenix List would be reshuffled, and they needed to make use of the final months in the battleground to accumulate more points so they could obtain better rewards from the academy.

"The future is becoming more and more interesting," muttered Baili Yixiao with a smile.

Of the many disciples, he was the calmest. He seemed to be standing aloof from all worldly affairs, but in truth, he greatly longed to see the appearance of more freaks. Only then would he feel less lonely on the path of cultivation.

On the other hand, Yu Ziyang reacted differently. With his fists clenched tight, he declared, "I will enter the Soul Foundation Realm before any of them. Only then will I be ahead of them."

As for Xiao Xie, he was now an eighth-stage Dragon Ascension Realm cultivator. His mount, the black qilin, was a powerful helper of his. When the two worked together, they could even fight a ninth-stage Dragon Ascension Realm cultivator.

But witnessing the battle between Xiang Shaoyun and Zhan Wushuang had greatly impacted him, making him vow to increase his cultivation speed. After all, Xiang Shaoyun's rise had been too abrupt, giving everyone a repressive feeling. They did not want to be thoroughly surpassed.

Back when Xiang Shaoyun first joined the academy, although he had revealed an amazing physique, he was still a tiny King while they were all Emperors. In a few short years, he had actually caught up to them. That definitely didn't feel great.

After everyone left, Han Chenfei immediately sent some Overlord Legion members to clear a cave for Xiang Shaoyun to recuperate.

After the battle with Zhan Wushuang, Xiang Shaoyun had already used a large amount of spring water to relieve his injuries. Otherwise, the remnant fist intent in his body would have destroyed all his internal organs.

After entering the cave, he immediately activated the profundity of wood, causing a large amount of wood energy to converge on him. At the same time, he used the Secret Reversal Technique to heal himself.

If this was a regular injury, Xiang Shaoyun wouldn't need to enter seclusion to heal. But an injury caused by fist intent was an entirely different matter. He had to deal with it seriously to avoid leaving any concealed injuries in his body.
