Arrogant, tyrannical, this was the current Luo Qianqiu.
He directly agreed to Qin Wentian's request, and even made the decision on behalf of Chu Tianjiao. Because he had the qualifications to do so, Chu Tianjiao wouldn't have any objections.
Naturally, Chu Tianjiao also believed in Luo Qianqiu. As he watched Luo Qianqiu walk out, he was filled with confidence.
The soldiers surrounding Qin Wentian all retreated, and very soon, only Luo Qianqiu and Qin Wentian remained on the snowy path.
"Kacha …" A bolt of lightning flashed, and Luo Qianqiu's body was bathed in the glow of the lightning. His Astral Energy contained the power of lightning, and his Constellation was a lightning-type Constellation.
With Luo Qianqiu at the center, the surrounding snow was all shattered into pieces. That aura caused many in the crowd to sigh in admiration at how tyrannical Luo Qianqiu was.
"As expected of a Heaven's Chosen from the Emperor Star Academy. With a cultivation base at the 8th level of Arterial Circulation, Luo Qianqiu is already qualified to be one of the 10 prodigies of the Royal Capital. Three moves, to Qin Wentian, would definitely be a nightmare."
The hearts of the spectators mused, only to see Qin Wentian keeping the ancient halberd in his hands. Since they had agreed on three moves, there was no need for him to borrow the power of a Divine Weapon.
Streaks of lightning illuminated the entire space, and with every step Luo Qianqiu took, the spectators felt that he could destroy Qin Wentian at any moment. That kind of aura was too tyrannical.
Finally, Luo Qianqiu's five fingers struck out, and his silhouette appeared in front of Qin Wentian. In that instant, the spectators only saw an innumerable number of lightning pythons lunging towards Qin Wentian, wanting to devour him. That kind of tyrannical aura seemed to be able to destroy everything.
At the same time, Qin Wentian also responded. Using his Divine Energy, he blasted out with his Arterial Circulation Imprint, his palm imprint drowning out everything. The spectators only saw the mountain-toppling, sea-overturning palm imprint being entangled by the lightning, before exploding apart bit by bit. Qin Wentian only felt his entire body going numb as a huge force slammed into him. His feet slid across the snowy ground as he retreated over 10 metres.
However, Qin Wentian's body remained ramrod straight as he stared straight at Luo Qianqiu.
"The first move." Luo Qianqiu retracted his five fingers as he took another step forward. His long hair fluttered in the wind, and his robe was as white as snow.
He was Luo Qianqiu. The Qin Wentian in front of him was merely a stumbling block in his path. He would use his most domineering attitude to kick him away. Qin Wentian wasn't qualified to obstruct his path.
It was impossible for the Emperor Star Academy to support a demon-level character to obstruct his plans.
There were less than two months left. The end of this year would be the time when his radiance would shine. At that time, he would fulfill the promise he had made and step into the 7th level of the Heavenly Star Pavilion. This was something his father had accomplished before. Naturally, Qin Wentian's goal wasn't limited to this.
Luo Qianqiu's eyes were filled with arrogance and disdain. In his eyes, there was no Qin Wentian.
Since he couldn't even withstand the first move, Qin Wentian's ending was already set in stone.
When Luo Qianqiu once again descended in front of Qin Wentian, snowflakes danced violently in the air. Luo Qianqiu's eyes contained the might of lightning, piercing right into Qin Wentian's eyes. His palms blasted out once again, and this time around, his entire being was akin to a god of lightning. Everything in his path would be destroyed.
The arterial pathways in Qin Wentian's body were already roaring. His eyes no longer feared Luo Qianqiu's gaze, and a surge of energy frenziedly gathered in his palms.
"Forgotten Imprint." Qin Wentian's palms blasted out, executing the third stance of the Thousand Hands Imprint, the Forgotten Imprint. This palm imprint seemed as though it wanted to draw out all the Astral Energy in his arterial pathways. This palm imprint wanted to break apart all illusions and shatter everything in its path.
As the attacks of the two collided, a terrifying shockwave swept outwards. With the two of them at the center, the accumulated snow in a circumference was swept up into the air, transforming into a hurricane that danced chaotically in the wind.
This time around, Qin Wentian's footsteps were as firm as a mountain.
"SCRAM!" Luo Qianqiu roared in rage.
"SCRAM!" Qin Wentian similarly roared, and both of them were simultaneously forced backwards. However, Luo Qianqiu only retreated a single step, while Qin Wentian retreated over ten steps. The disparity between their cultivation bases was clear for all to see.
Qin Wentian only felt his insides trembling, as though a terrifying lightning energy was rushing into his body, wanting to destroy it.
However, the moment he raised his eyes, there was an unshakable determination and stubbornness in his clear gaze. At the same time, there was an indomitable determination to move forward.
The spectators felt their hearts surging with emotions. Who would have thought that Qin Wentian would actually be able to withstand Luo Qianqiu's second strike? That terrifying attack earlier, even those at the 8th level of Arterial Circulation would have been easily annihilated. Yet, Qin Wentian had actually managed to withstand it.
There was no longer any snow beneath the feet of the two of them.
A cold wind gusted by, fluttering Luo Qianqiu's white robes. He had actually retreated a single step. To him, this was a humiliation.
Even if it was only a single step.
Even if Qin Wentian's innate technique was extraordinary, and might even be an Earth-grade innate technique.
But so what? He was Luo Qianqiu, and his innate techniques were all tyrannical as well. His Astral Souls contained explosive power. There was no reason for him to retreat.
"Are you ready for the third strike?" Luo Qianqiu inclined his head, staring at Qin Wentian. His voice was filled with arrogance, as though announcing the end of the battle. His 2nd Astral Soul had already been released, and the lightning Astral Energy within his body was howling.
This strike would completely destroy Qin Wentian.
"Boom."
However, at this moment, Qin Wentian abruptly stepped out, releasing both of his Astral Souls. The six arterial pathways in his body began to seethe with power.
"Huh?" The countenances of the spectators froze. After which, they saw Qin Wentian's silhouette dashing out like a hurricane, as fast as lightning. His body leapt up into the air, akin to a great roc spreading its wings.
"How is this possible?" The eyes of the spectators narrowed. Only Yuanfu Realm cultivators could soar through the air, yet Qin Wentian could actually stride through the air?
Even Luo Qianqiu was stunned. However, he didn't even have the time to be stunned. At this moment, Qin Wentian descended from the skies. His eyes were resplendent, and his long hair fluttered in the wind. From those eyes, Luo Qianqiu could see a will that could destroy the Heavens and Earth with a single palm strike. This will directly entered his mind, transforming into images that were branded onto him.
"How fast." The countenances of the spectators froze. This time around, Qin Wentian didn't passively defend. He actually took the initiative to launch an attack.
The figure descending from the skies unleashed his strongest attack as he blasted out a palm strike. This palm strike was still the same Emptiness Imprint. However, this palm strike was as heavy as a mountain, akin to a mountain peak pressing down on Luo Qianqiu.
At this moment, Luo Qianqiu only felt the pressure of a mountain pressing down on him, causing his countenance to stiffen.
He was a prideful person, he had always believed that Qin Wentian would stand there and receive his strongest attack. His strongest attack would directly destroy Qin Wentian. However, he had clearly overestimated himself, and also underestimated Qin Wentian.
In that instant, Luo Qianqiu didn't even have the time to think. He could only lift his palms and blast out with them. Boundless amounts of lightning and thunder energy erupted forth, destroying everything in this space. Yet, it was unable to destroy Qin Wentian's determination.
"Peng!"
The terrifying might of the collision caused Luo Qianqiu's body to bend under the pressure, as though he was on the verge of collapse. Groaning in agony, Luo Qianqiu's body trembled violently from the pressure.
"Three moves." Qin Wentian was incomparably arrogant as he stared at Luo Qianqiu.
"SCRAM!" Luo Qianqiu howled in rage. Boundless energy converged into the form of the Thunder God's Sword, slashing down towards Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian's countenance froze. His left palm slammed downwards, causing rumbling sounds to echo out, akin to the pressure of a mountain. The crowd could even see the Shadow of a mountain, yet the mountain was actually split apart. Qin Wentian's body was flung through the air, landing a distance away. Groaning in agony, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
"This is the fourth move." Qin Wentian inclined his head, staring at Luo Qianqiu. The gazes of the crowd were all on him.
Three moves, yet Luo Qianqiu wasn't able to force him back. In fact, they were evenly matched.
Staring at the Astral Souls floating above Qin Wentian's head, the crowd couldn't help but feel a sense of surrealism. His combat prowess was already so tyrannical, yet he was still injured in the end.
Yet, it seemed as though it wasn't able to block out his radiance.
He was Qin Wentian. In this battle, he had made a name for himself.
Astral Souls from the 3rd and 4th Heavenly Layer, tyrannical combat prowess, and an indomitable character. In addition to the fact that the Emperor Star Academy stood behind him, it was as though they could see a resplendent star slowly rising up into the skies, radiating a radiance that belonged solely to him.
"You are very intelligent." Luo Qianqiu was silent for a moment, as he stared at Qin Wentian, his eyes filled with arrogance.
"You hid your strongest attack, and only used it at the last moment. Taking advantage of my unprepared state, I managed to avert your nightmare." Luo Qianqiu slowly continued, "I have to say, you already have the qualifications for me to take a serious look at you. However, the next time you face me, I will definitely not give you such an opportunity."
Even at this moment, Luo Qianqiu's tone was still as arrogant as ever.
The gazes of the crowd once again converged onto him. That's right, he was Luo Qianqiu, the demon-level genius Luo Qianqiu.
So what if Qin Wentian had an extraordinary combat prowess? Luo Qianqiu's radiance couldn't be overshadowed. If this was a real battle, the ending would definitely be Qin Wentian's miserable defeat.
Qin Wentian could feel the arrogance radiating from Luo Qianqiu, but his eyes were still as calm as ever.
"The first time I met you in the Emperor Star Academy, you were already so arrogant. The Blood Ember Fruits I snatched from the Dark Forest, yet you claimed that they belonged to you? Because, at that time, you could easily suppress me."
"The second time we met, in the Dark Forest, you were still as domineering as ever. You wanted my life, and the you back then was able to do so."
"Today, we meet again. Three moves, yet you were unable to defeat me. In fact, you even went against our agreement and used a fourth move, yet you are still as arrogant as ever."
"Since that's the case, the next time we fight, I will show you how laughable and pathetic your arrogance is."
Qin Wentian slowly spoke, his eyes filled with determination and determination.
He, too, had his own pride. This was the third time he had clashed with Luo Qianqiu. Next time, he would cleanse the slate clean, and Luo Qianqiu would pay the price for his arrogance.
This was his will, Qin Wentian's will!
The crowd stared at Qin Wentian. A hot-blooded youth with a heart of a ferocious tiger. Today, Qin Wentian was already worthy of pride!
