Yan Feiluan was in the early stage of Lv Eight.
Xiong Qisheng was also in the early stage of Lv Eight, but he was defeated by Ye Xing with one punch. Therefore, Yan Feiluan admitted defeat without hesitation.
Ye Xing entered the top five without drawing blood. Now, the top five were all announced.
Ren Xiuwu, Bu Haoling, Wei Qingxuan, Li Pengfei, and Ye Xing.
Among them, Ren Xiuwu was at the peak of the eighth level. Bu Haoling and Li Pengfei were at the middle of the eighth level. Wei Qingxuan and Ye Xing were both at the seventh level. The former was at the peak of the seventh level and the latter was at the middle of the seventh level.
Among the top five, there were actually two seventh-level grandmasters. This result was probably something that no one had expected.
Before the assessment, who would have thought that Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan, two seventh-layer Grandmasters, would be able to make it to the top five when even a mid-eighth-layer Grandmaster was eliminated?
Moreover, one of them had already declared that he would take the first place and received the support of most students. This change was unexpected.
In the fourth round, three out of five would advance. One of the remaining four would fight against each other. The winner would advance and the loser would be eliminated.
After the academy's research, Ren Xiuwu, who was in the peak of Lv Eight, would have a bye in the fourth round. As the student with the highest cultivation in the advanced class, Ren Xiuwu's strength was naturally not weak. His bye was expected.
As for the remaining four battles, many people were surprised. The academy did not arrange for Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan, who were in the seventh stage, to fight against each other. Instead, they each fought against a middle stage of Lv Eight.
In the first round, Bu Haoling would fight against Wei Qingxuan. In the second round, Li Pengfei would fight against Ye Xing.
In the last round, Chou Tianda, who was in the middle stage of Lv Eight, was defeated by Wei Qingxuan with one punch. Therefore, the outcome of the first battle was already expected. The students were looking forward to the battle between Li Pengfei and Ye Xing.
Everyone wanted to know if Ye Xing could defeat a Lv Eight mid-stage grandmaster like Wei Qingxuan. If that was the case, the battle for the top three would be extremely exciting and full of suspense.
The first battle ended quickly. Wei Qingxuan was indeed much stronger than a mid-eighth-level grandmaster. Even though Bu Haoling didn't fight Wei Qingxuan head-on, he was defeated by Wei Qingxuan within a few moves. Wei Qingxuan entered the top three.
Bu Haoling sighed in his heart after being eliminated. He felt that he was unlucky. His opponent was Wei Qingxuan, but Li Pengfei's luck was much better than his. Ye Xing's battle prowess was clearly much weaker than Wei Qingxuan's. He was in the middle stage of the eighth stage, so he could definitely fight with Wei Qingxuan. He had a high chance of winning, and if he won, he could enter the top three.
"Senior Brother Ye, you can do it!"
…
"Senior Li, defeat him!"
…
When Ye Xing and Li Pengfei walked into the arena, the scene suddenly became lively.
The freshmen naturally stood on Ye Xing's side, hoping that Ye Xing could win this battle. After all, Ye Xing was a true freshman in name, and Wei Qingxuan was already a student of the advanced class. Only if Ye Xing defeated the genius of the advanced class would the freshmen feel the greatest sense of honor.
The advanced class students, without a doubt, all stood on Li Pengfei's side.
Wei Qingxuan defeating the genius of the advanced class was one thing, because although she was a new student, she was still a student of the advanced class. On the other hand, Ye Xing was a true freshman of the ordinary class.
The students of the advanced class were absolutely unwilling to see a new student of the ordinary class step on their heads, no matter how outstanding this new student was.
Xiong Qisheng's defeat, Yan Feiluan's admission of defeat, and Ye Xing's advancement into the top five had already made the students of the advanced class very unhappy. They felt that they had lost face, so naturally, they were now united against a common enemy. They all hoped that Li Pengfei would be able to eliminate Ye Xing.
Otherwise, with Ye Xing, a new student, in the advanced class's assessment, the older students would feel very uncomfortable, sullen, and ashamed.
"Brat, you're just a new student who's only been here for three months, yet you're here to participate in the seniors' assessment. Are you trying to bully our advanced class?"
Li Pengfei was just like his surname. His expression was cold and stern, giving people a feeling of callousness. He coldly stared at Ye Xing and said, "You — — stop at the top five!"
Ye Xing smiled and imitated Wei Qingxuan's tone. "Top five? I still want to take first place? "
Listening to this sentence, which was almost exactly the same as what Wei Qingxuan had said before, and in the same tone, all the new students naturally laughed, and their confidence in Ye Xing increased a lot.
All the students of the advanced class were stunned and felt that something was wrong. Wei Qingxuan, who was among the students of the advanced class, smiled slightly when she heard this, and the corners of her mouth curled up.
At this moment, Ren Xiuwu's face became gloomy. Another person had threatened to take first place, and he was also a seventh-level master. In his opinion, this person did not put him, a peak eighth-level master, in his eyes at all. He could not help but snort coldly.
Li Pengfei was not as broad-minded as Chou Tianda. Even Chou Tianda was unhappy when he heard Wei Qingxuan's words, and Li Pengfei was even more furious.
"Arrogant!"
Li Pengfei shouted coldly. "Don't think that you can be arrogant and conceited just because you have the strength to challenge those of a higher level. I'll let you know the gap between you and me now!"
As soon as his voice fell, Li Pengfei's figure flashed, and in an instant, he turned into a phantom and disappeared.
Among the students, except for a few who could roughly see Li Pengfei's figure, most of the students lost track of Li Pengfei at this moment.
They could not even see where he was, so how could they fight?
After half a blink of an eye, Li Pengfei appeared. He was like a roc spreading its wings, appearing in the air behind Ye Xing. His palms stretched out and turned into sharp claws.
The sharp claws stretched out as fast as lightning, aiming to grab Ye Xing's head.
Upper Grade Body Movement — Roc Steps!
Upper Grade Martial Technique — Roc King's Claws!
They were both upper Grade Martial Arts, and they were even a set of Martial Arts. If they were used at the same time, their power would be even greater. If this claw were to hit Ye Xing's head, five holes would be clawed out.
Ye Xing seemed to be unaware of Li Pengfei's sudden appearance in the air behind him. His body did not dodge in the slightest. Li Pengfei's Roc King Claw was like a spark from a flint, grabbing the top of Ye Xing's head.
The internal strength claw that penetrated his body had already grabbed Ye Xing's head. However, Ye Xing's head seemed to be especially sturdy, and the claw did not cause any damage.
But a real claw was much stronger than the claw's attack power. If one was to be caught, the consequences would be extremely serious.
"Hiss —!"
"Senior Brother Ye —!"
…
At this moment, the faces of the freshmen changed greatly. Some people sucked in a breath of cold air, and some people cried out in alarm.
Some of the advanced class students, who longed for Ye Xing to be defeated, sneered at this moment.
Li Pengfei also sneered in his heart. His speed was unparalleled. As expected, Ye Xing could not react in time. Thinking of Ye Xing's heavy injury to Xiong Qisheng, he did not show any mercy. The strength of this claw did not decrease in the slightest. He wanted to claw out five holes on Ye Xing's head and heavily injure him.
However, just when he thought that he was one hundred percent sure that he would grab Ye Xing's head, Ye Xing seemed to have grown eyes at the back of his head. His head suddenly tilted to the side, avoiding this claw that he was almost certain would succeed.
At the same time, Ye Xing's shoulder pushed upwards, and his body leaned backwards.
Ye Xing's dodge surprised Li Pengfei, but it did not arouse his vigilance. His Roc King's Claw just happened to grab the shoulder that was pushed upwards. He thought to himself,
"That's good. If I grab your head, I might accidentally kill you. I'll grab your shoulder, crush your bones, and cripple your arm. Not only will it not harm your life, but it will also teach you a lesson for your arrogance. It can also be considered as revenge for Xiong Qisheng! Heh …! "
Li Pengfei began to sneer in his heart, but suddenly there was a miserable cry!
His claw accurately grabbed Ye Xing's shoulder. However, the bones on Ye Xing's shoulder were not broken. What was broken were his finger bones.
Ye Xing's shoulder was as solid as a piece of steel. Moreover, the strength of that strike was extremely terrifying. When Li Pengfei's claw grabbed it, the strong collided with the strong. The difference in the hardness of the body was obvious.
Ye Xing's Upper Grade Body Refining Technique, Silver Body Technique, had been cultivated to perfection. The hardness of his body was much higher than Chou Tianda's.
Body collision?
Even if Chou Tianda collided with him, his bones would be broken, let alone Li Pengfei.
However, the shattering of Li Pengfei's finger bones was just the beginning. While he was screaming, Ye Xing's body leaned back, and just happened to lean in front of him.
Li Pengfei only felt that he was hit by a mountain. His miserable cry suddenly turned into a scream.
This collision broke countless bones in his body. His body was instantly knocked back more than ten feet, and fell to the ground far away. He could no longer get up and kept screaming.
Ye Xing's principle had always been that if someone respected him, he would return the favor tenfold. If someone offended him, he would return the favor tenfold!
If Li Pengfei was afraid of hurting Ye Xing when he grabbed at Ye Xing's head and restrained his strength, then Ye Xing would definitely not be so ruthless to him.
However, Li Pengfei did not care about Ye Xing's life. If that claw had hit Ye Xing's head, it would have made five holes. Ye Xing would have been seriously injured, or even killed because the head was an absolutely vital area.
Since Li Pengfei didn't even care about Ye Xing's life, why should Ye Xing care about his life or death? Ye Xing's sturdy body collided with Li Pengfei's without restraint. Naturally, Li Pengfei was in an incomparably miserable state.
Of course, in the end, Ye Xing still cared about Li Pengfei's life. This collision did not hit his vital parts. If he had deliberately hit his vital parts, this would definitely have taken Li Pengfei's life. It was completely possible to make his heart burst in an instant.
After all, this was the academy's assessment. Although the other party did not care about his life, Ye Xing still could not deliberately take the other party's life.
Looking at Li Pengfei's figure that was sent flying, at this moment, the whole place was silent.
All the students were stunned. Seeing that Ye Xing was about to be seriously injured by Li Pengfei's claw, they never thought that at that critical moment, the result would actually be such a reversal.
The person who was seriously injured was not Ye Xing, but Li Pengfei. This result was simply unimaginable.
Even now, when they recalled the scene of Li Pengfei's claw grabbing at Ye Xing's head, the students could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. Of course, they were even more shocked.
How calm and how good of a judgment did one have to be to be able to not panic under that kind of situation, and to be able to make an accurate counterattack?
What kind of brain could be so calm and have such frightening judgment?
They did not dare to imagine.
