Battle Through the Heavens - chapter-424

The faint voice slowly reverberated across the stadium. After which, the
skinny, black-robed, young man pulled Xun Er behind him under the focus
of a countless number of gazes. He raised his head slightly, and his
indifferent gaze stopped on the faces of Bai Shan, Hu Jia, and Wu Hao.

“This fellow is finally awake…” Instructor Ruo Ling and Xiao Yu on
the viewing gallery finally let out a long sigh of relief as they stared
at Xiao Yan, who had exited his training mode at a crucial moment.

As they watched Xiao Yan, whose aura had become much stronger than
before, Bai Shan and the two others clearly understood that the current
Xiao Yan had already successfully increased his strength. The fight after
this might really be unexpectedly fierce.

There were no ripples in Xiao Yan’s dark black pupils, which were like
old wells. Xun Er, who was by his side, however, could clearly sense the
brutal emotion that faintly seeped out from within his body. Clearly, the
actions of Bai Shan and the other two joining hands to surround and
attack Xun Er had enraged Xiao Yan.

“Xun Er, you should withdraw a little first. Let me handle the rest of
them.” Xiao Yan said faintly.

“Xiao Yan ge-ge, the three of them all possess the strength of a five
or six star Da Dou Shi. The Qi Methods that they practice are also not of
a low class. Moreover, they also have powerful Dou Techniques . If it is
you alone…” Xun Er said hesitatingly.

“Leave it to me.” Xiao Yan repeated once again. A faint,
green-colored flame began to slowly seep out from within his body. The
high temperature caused the air around him to become blurry until it
appeared illusionary.

“Then… alright. I will stand by the side to watch the fight. If there
are any unexpected changes, Xiao Yan ge-ge should not blame Xun Er for
acting.” When she heard Xiao Yan repeat himself, Xun Er could only nod
her head. She slowly pulled back while speaking softly.

Xiao Yan nodded. He once again turned his gaze back to Bai Shan and the
two others. A long while later, he slowly said, “If you all walk out of
this arena unscathed today, then I, Xiao Yan will never take another step
in Jia Nan Academy again!”

Xiao Yan’s words caused the expressions of the three of them to change
slightly. They could clearly sense the coldness and the suppressed fury
contained within these words that the former had spoken.

“Humph, just boast. Although you have currently advanced by one star,
you only have the strength around that of a six star Da Dou Shi. This
level is just enough to contend with any one of us alone. However, if you
want to fight all three of us by yourself, I think that you are only
looking to be humiliated!” Bai Shan waved the long lance in his hand
and coldly laugh.

“My original intention was not to hurt Xun Er. After you are defeated,
I will let Bai Shan pay the price for the kick of his earlier.” Wu Hao,
whose entire body was wrapped in a blood-colored robe, eyed the calm Xiao
Yan as he spoke.

“Hee hee, you must count me in.” Hu Jia laughed lovingly.

When he heard the words of the two of them, Bai Shan’s expression could
not help but change slightly. However, he smiled instead and said, “I
also feel extremely guilty of accidentally hurting Junior Xun Er earlier.
Later, there is no need for the both of you to act. I will withdraw by
myself in order to apologize to Junior Xun Er. However, before this, we
must first defeat Xiao Yan before we discuss anything more.”

“Isn’t it a little late to talk about all this?” Xiao Yan waved his
hand and ignored Bai Shan, who wore a cold smile on his face. His hands
slowly formed some strange seal in front of him. Following the forming of
the seal, the green-colored flame that shrouded the surface of Xiao
Yan’s body suddenly coagulated. Immediately, it completely entered his
body with a ‘suo’ sound.

Following the disappearance of the green-colored flame, a green-colored
flame gradually swarmed into that pair of dark black eyes of Xiao Yan. In
an instant, a pair of dark pupils turned into a pair of eyes that were
now filled with a green colored flame.

“The First Change of the Sky Fire Three Mysterious Change: Green Lotus
Change!”

The calm voice slowly sounded in Xiao Yan’s heart. When the last word
sounded, the aura over Xiao Yan’s body was abruptly withdrawn. An
instant later, the aura appeared to be like a volcano, which had broken
through the restraint of the land as it erupted forth in all directions!

The green-colored flame Dou Qi hurriedly swarmed out from Xiao Yan’s
body. It immediately swept horizontally through the air. The hot flame
caused the temperature on the open ground to swiftly rise. Perspiration
involuntarily appeared on the faces of some of the students whose
strengths were weaker.

At this moment, Xiao Yan’s Qi had already far surpassed the Da Dou Shi
class. If one were to vaguely measure it, it was at least something that
could stand shoulder to shoulder with a strong Dou Ling!

The faces of a countless number of people in the viewing gallery were
shocked and dull as they stared at Xiao Yan in the arena, who was wrapped
by a large cluster of flame. They sensed the change in force, which had
suddenly soared explosively.

“Dou Ling?” Bai Shan’s expression could not help but change a
little as his gaze stared intently at Xiao Yan. A seriousness had
similarly surfaced on Hu Jia and Wu Hao’s faces by his side.

“Boom!”

Bai Shan’s voice had just left his mouth when the sound of an energy
explosion abruptly rang out from within the flame. A vague, green-colored
figure let out a ‘chi’ sound and tore through the hinderance of the
air. The ten plus meters between the figure and Bai Shan was shuttled
past in less than a second. This terrifying speed caused the eyes of Bai
Shan and the two others to be dazzled. A green-colored, flaming figure
that was around three meters tall brought a high temperature as it
appeared in front of them.

A fist abruptly shot out from within the flames. It turned into three
afterimages. Each of them carried the hot green flame and violently
smashed at the heads of the three of them.

The speed of Xiao Yan after he had activated the ‘Sky Fire Three
Mysterious Change’ had already risen to such a degree that even a Dou
Ling of ordinary strength would unable to match him. Therefore, only when
the fist was about to reach their heads did Bai Shan and the two others
sense something. Their expressions changed greatly In their haste, their
arms were swiftly crossed in front of their heads. Dou Qi flowed
immediately and repeatedly strengthened their defenses.

“Bang!”

The green-colored flame fists landed heavily on the crossed arms of the
three of them. Three muffled sounds immediately appeared in an orderly
fashion. A sleek redness rose onto the faces of Bai Shan and the two
others as their feet rubbed against the ground while they quickly slid
back.

After the three of them pulled back for more than ten steps, their feet
violently stomped against the ground and they finally managed to redirect
the force. They sensed their hands, which had nearly become numb from
being struck by Xiao Yan, and shock surfaced on the faces of the three of
them. They did not expect that Xiao Yan’s strength had actually soared
to such a powerful degree all of a sudden. One versus three. Not only did
he show no sign of losing, but he also suppressed them until they were at
a disadvantage.

“Go all out!”

Bai Shan clenched his teeth and shouted coldly. Silver-colored Dou Qi was
suddenly attached to his body. The long, silver-colored lance was shaking
in front of him. Dou Qi, like electric snakes, swiftly danced and flashed
from the tip of the lance. Following an intense tremble of the lance in
Bai Shan’s hand, the silver-colored Dou Qi began to agglomerate at the
tip of the lance, which emitted soft ‘Chi La’ sounds. From its
appearance, it was clear that he was preparing a Dou Technique with an
impressive force.

Beside Bai Shan, Wu Hao, and Hu Jia also hesitated for a moment before
their Dou Qi also began to swiftly gallop around their bodies. With their
reputation within Jia Nan Academy, their haughtiness caused them to be
extremely unwilling to be defeated by the hands of a young man, who was
around their age, at the same time with two others. At this stage, it was
naturally impossible for them to choose to hold anything back.

As they decided on this thought, a deep, green-colored and blood-colored
Dou Qi began to wildly surge out from within Hu Jia’s and Wu Hao’s
body respectively. On top of the whip and the heavy sword, strong
offensive type Dou Qi was swiftly being brewed. After their defeat
earlier, the current them had began to go all out to counter attack!

Against everyone’s expectations, Xiao Yan did not choose to continue
attacking after defeating the three of them with one punch earlier. Under
the shroud of the green-colored flame, he had a cold face as he took out
a purple-colored Yaowan and stuffed it into his mouth. He began chew it
before spitting a mouthful of purple-colored flame, which he finally held
in his palm.

Xiao Yan glanced at the purple-colored flame. His right hand shook again
and a green-colored flame rose from within it. Xiao Yan slowly raised his
head and eyed Bai Shan and the other two who had prepared to go all out
just before their defeat. There was not the slightest emotion within Xiao
Yan’s eyes, which were filled with the green-colored flame. His hands
gradually moved closer together. The purple-colored and the green-colored
flames began to merge!

Looking at his manner, Xiao Yan was actually thinking of displaying a
small scale ‘Angry Buddha Lotus Flame’… It appeared that the
actions of Bai Shan and the two others had truly caused Xiao Yan to be in
a furious state.

“That Xiao Yan should have used a certain kind of Secret Technique that
can temporarily raise his strength, right? Otherwise, it is impossible
for his strength to rise by this much.” The Deputy Headmaster, Hu Gan,
on the organizer’s platform eyed the green-colored flame figure, who had
ceased moving within the arena, and then Bai Shan and the two others, who
were brewing their powerful Dou Qi on the other side before he slowly
spoke.

“The current Xiao Yan likely already possesses the strength of a strong
Dou Ling. However, looking at the Dou Techniques that Bai Shan and the
two others are displaying, it is clear that they aren’t ordinary
things. Under the combined strength of the three of them, even a strong
Dou Ling would not dare to carelessly slight them. If Xiao Yan doesn’t
intend on letting Xun Er participate in this competition, I’m afraid
that it may end up in a stalemate.” An elder in the academy by Hu
Gan’s side said with a smile.

“There won’t be a stalemate…” A faint voice was suddenly emitted.
The gaze of Old Huo, who sat off to the side, stared intently at the
green-colored flame which had wrapped around Xiao Yan as he softly said,
“If what I think is happening is not wrong, the competition will end
after this attack.”

“Oh?” When the others heard this, even Hu Gan felt a little
astonished. He threw his gaze into the arena and a moment later, he
suddenly sensed that there was an extremely wild and violent energy
ripple that had appeared from it. His expression immediately changed.
That sharp gaze of his directly shot toward the green-colored flame,
“Good fellow. Exactly what Dou Technique is this Xiao Yan actually
displaying? It is actually strong to such an extent?”

The silent atmosphere in the arena lasted for less than a minute before
it was abruptly broken!

“Glorious Thunder!”

“Quiet Woods Poisonous Snake Vine!”

“Blood Splitting Chop!”

Within the arena, the eyes of Bai Shan and the two others abruptly
widened. The powerful Dou Techniques within their hands were finally
brewed to their limits. They shook their weapons abruptly and in an
instant, silver, green, and red, three incomparably fierce and powerful
energies, Dou Techniques were shot out. Anywhere the three energies
passed through, the hard surface ended up completely cracked. Numerous
eye-piercing crack lines spread all the way to the edge of the arena
before stopping.

While the three ferocious energies were shooting explosively, an
indifferent voice also gently sounded from within the green flame human
figure not far away. Immediately, a greenish-purple glow shot out from
the green-colored flame in a lightning like manner. Finally, it quietly
carried a beautiful, green-purple trail, and suddenly collided with the
three energies under the focus of a countless number of gazes!

“Bang!”

The moment they collided, the four energies were at first silent for a
moment before an earth-shaking explosion suddenly appeared!

Quickly following this, dense dust rose and spread throughout the arena.
At this instant, the entire open ground was turned into ruins!

While they watched the arena, which had basically turned into ruins, the
viewing gallery of the arena also descended into a death-like silence!
