Murong Xue didn't reply. Instead, she silently manipulated the roots she'd planted in the ground.
Halfway through Shanghai Xiayan's journey, the ground began to tremble.
Immediately afterwards, the ground began to shatter, and sharp wooden spikes began to grow from the ground. In the blink of an eye, Shanghai Xiayan was engulfed in a forest of sharp wooden spikes.
However, not a single one of these wooden spikes managed to harm Shanghai Xiayan. They were all blocked by Shanghai Xiayan's Flame Armor.
In the blink of an eye, the sharp wooden spikes blocking Shanghai Xiayan's path were burnt to a crisp by the Flame Armor's golden flames.
Shanghai Xiayan smashed through the charred wooden spikes, then charged through the forest of sharp wooden spikes. All the spikes in his path were burnt to a crisp.
When Shanghai Xiayan reached Murong Xue, they were still five or six meters apart. Murong Xue could already feel the terrifying heat radiating from him. She was on the verge of passing out.
She immediately manipulated the wooden spikes to form a wooden shield in front of her.
However, Shanghai Xiayan didn't even make a move. He only took two steps forward. When he was half a meter away from the wooden shield, it automatically burst into flames.
Murong Xue staggered back, then fell to her knees, gasping for breath. "I … I admit defeat."
After she finished speaking, she fell onto the martial stage and lost all signs of life.
The referee immediately announced the result of the match.
Shanghai Xiayan immediately withdrew his martial soul, and the Flame Armor on his body disappeared as well. The temperature of the arena plummeted.
Everyone couldn't help but gulp as they gasped in shock.
"He didn't even use a single move. He only used his martial soul to defend, yet he defeated his opponent. What terrifying strength!"
"If he were on the battlefield, he wouldn't even need to use a single move. He could just charge straight into the enemy's midst and burn them to a crisp! "
"If Shanghai Xiayan is this strong, how strong can Prince Namgong be? I can't even begin to imagine! "
After defeating Murong Xue, Shanghai Xiayan refused to rest. He immediately requested for the next match.
The 38th match was between Li Yifeng and Shanghai Xiayan.
Facing Shangguan Xiayan, Li Yifeng removed his wristguards in advance, intending to use his fastest speed from the very beginning.
"I heard you haven't awakened your martial soul, but you're very fast. In this duel, I won't use my Martial Spirit. I'll fight you in close combat. I hope you won't disappoint me. "Shangguan Xiayan looked at Li Yifeng and said, his face filled with excitement.
Among his peers, other than Prince Nangong and Hua Meinan, Shangguan Xiayan could not find any other opponents.
Being undefeatable was always lonely. He had been alone for too many years. He wanted to fight.
Hearing Shangguan Xiayan's words, everyone felt a deep admiration for him. To be able to promise his opponent that he wouldn't use his Martial Soul in such an important match, how heroic and confident was that?
"Then I apologize for offending you." Li Yifeng cupped his fists at Shangguan Xiayan, then appeared in front of Shangguan Xiayan in a flash, and punched at Shanghai Xiayan at lightning speed.
Shanghai Xiayan was caught off guard and was hit by Li Yi Feng's punch. His figure was directly sent flying backward and fiercely hit the barrier wall, causing a clear ripple to appear on the barrier.
In the next second, Shangguan Xiayan immediately climbed up from the ground and rubbed the bruised corners of his mouth. Not only was there no pain on his face, but he was even more excited than before.
Mental Profound – Hyperfocus!
Shangguan Xiayan blinked his eyes and instantly activated the state of Minute Subtlety.
The three monstrous geniuses of Royal City had all mastered the Minute Subtlety ability, and Shanghai Xiayan was no exception.
"Come on, let's fight to our hearts' content!" Shanghai Xiayan shouted hot-bloodedly. Then, he jumped up from the ground and turned into a blur as he charged at Li Yifeng.
Although Shanghai Xiayan wasn't as fast as Li Yifeng, he was still very fast. He was almost as fast as Lin Yun. In the entire Southern Summer King, apart from Li Yifeng and Lin Yun, it would be very difficult to find a genius that was faster than him.
In the blink of an eye, Shanghai Xiayan had already arrived in front of Li Yifeng and was exchanging blows with him.
Although Li Yifeng's speed was much faster than Shanghai Xiayan's, Shanghai Xiayan was still able to resist Li Yifeng's attacks. With the help of Minute Subtlety, Shanghai Xiayan was able to resist Li Yifeng's attacks.
Li Yifeng took the initiative to attack, while Shanghai Xiayan was passively defending. Just like that, the two of them exchanged hundreds of blows on the martial stage.
For a moment, the entire martial stage was filled with the blurry blur of the two people. It was as if there weren't two people fighting, but dozens of people fighting.
Even though Shanghai Xiayan was beaten black and blue, he didn't seem to be in pain. Instead, he became more excited and agitated. He even started laughing crazily, as if he was enjoying being abused.
At the beginning, Shanghai Xiayan couldn't even retaliate after being beaten by Li Yifeng. However, as the fight went on, Li Yifeng's stamina became weaker. On the other hand, Shanghai Xiayan became braver and more energetic as he fought. His speed also became faster and faster.
After exchanging hundreds of blows, Shanghai Xiayan was actually suppressing Li Yifeng.
Some of the people in the audience saw the clues and asked curiously.
"What's going on? Why do I feel that Shanghai Xiayan's speed is getting faster and faster? Could it be that I'm seeing things? "
"You're right, I think so too. Just now, Shanghai Xiayan's speed was indeed much slower than it is now. "
"This doesn't make sense. The longer the fight, the more tired he will be. His stamina should also be getting worse. How come this Shanghai Xiayan is doing the opposite?"
A young man from the Shangguan family stood out at this time and said to the puzzled onlookers, "It seems that you still don't know? Our Young Lord has actually already mastered the 'Bloody Bravery' cultivation technique. "
"What? Mastered it? "
Everyone showed a shocked expression. Obviously, they had a certain understanding of the 'Bloody Struggle'.
'Bloody Struggle' was a kind of strange cultivation method that could make the cultivator become stronger and stronger during the fight.
It was said that this was an ancient inherited cultivation method. Its rank should have reached the Earth rank. After mastering this cultivation method, one would have almost endless stamina. Moreover, the longer the fight, the better the stamina would be, and the stronger the strength and speed would be.
This cultivation method was brought out by the Country Guarding Emperor, Nangong Bubai, from a secret realm when he was young.
Although the Country Guarding Emperor brought this cultivation method out, he couldn't master it himself.
Not only him, but even the other two sovereigns, as well as the many martial arts experts of the Southern Summer King Country, couldn't master this cultivation method.
Later on, the Country Guarding Emperor taught this cultivation method to the three great monsters to practice.
To this day, even the leader of the three great monsters, Prince Namgong, couldn't master it.
