Both individuals were exerting their full strength, and they began to attack each other from a distance of about five hundred meters.
Although in a rage, Guan Yue knew that Lu Tao was a very difficult opponent, but also a rare challenger. Having already experienced the full power of the Nine Pulse Will, he was now going to test the might of the Wuji Battle Technique.
As Guan Yue's use of the Wuji Battle Technique gradually intensified, Lu Tao also increased his output. He regarded Guan Yue as a worthy opponent to hone his skills against. He was concerned that Guan Yue might not allow him to fully unleash his potential. Therefore, he adjusted his Combat Power according to Guan Yue's situation, aiming to sustain their battle.
His mindset perfectly matched what Guan Yue needed. Guan Yue first attacked Lu Tao with Mental Strength. Lu Tao was startled; it was the first time he felt such a powerful Mental Strength attack from a student of Qilin Academy. A sharp pain surged through his mind, particularly affecting his spirit. However, Lu Tao's Mental Strength was not weak either; he exerted all his effort to organize his mental energy and counterattack Guan Yue. After a minute, Guan Yue switched tactics and used Divine Sense Ability to attack Lu Tao. The Divine Sense Ability was originally meant for perceiving the surrounding environment, while Spiritual Attack targeted specific points within an opponent's Divine Sense for focused strikes. This was a contest of their Divine Sense powers, which most people would avoid due to the risk of mutual destruction.
However, Guan Yue was fearless like a young calf; since the Wuji Battle Technique had such capabilities, he wanted to give it a try. Moreover, he knew he had formed a Sea of Awareness, so his Divine Sense Ability should be formidable. As expected, Lu Tao began to sweat under Guan Yue's Spiritual Attack, showing signs of distress. Nevertheless, Lu Tao held on; his personality would never allow him to admit defeat.
After about a minute, Guan Yue switched to the Mental Illusion Array. This Mental Illusion Array could be clearly explained as a Mental Cage. It utilized the principles of Illusory Array and employed strong Mental Strength to draw the opponent into the formation, thereby locking them down and winning without battle!
This was precisely Guan Yue's forte. As Lu Tao was gradually pushed into this mental prison, he resisted and struggled fiercely. He Bi, Du Diwei, Jiang Tianlan, Xiahou Xiong, and others noticed the fear on Lu Tao's face and the extreme pain in his eyes. In contrast, Guan Yue appeared excited and intrigued.
Only Du Diwei understood the pain that Lu Tao was enduring; he firmly believed that Guan Yue had held back against him earlier; otherwise, it would have been him who made a fool of himself just now. His interest in Guan Yue deepened.
He Bi's expression was filled with confusion—what kind of person was Guan Yue? How could he inflict pain on Lu Tao? Was his master Futian Shangren really that terrifying? Perhaps this was also the true reason why the dean was reluctant to cultivate Guan Yue; he feared that Guan Yue would become too powerful and unmatched!
At this moment, only Lu Tao truly felt fear; he deeply realized that he had underestimated Guan Yue. Any attack he had launched earlier would have led to his defeat if sustained for half an hour. How could a second-year freshman possess such formidable Combat Power? He felt frustrated; he had always considered himself second in Qilin Academy, with no rivals except for his brother. But reality brought him immense pain; he knew that there would definitely be a place for Guan Yue in Qilin Academy in the future—besides his brother Lu Xiao, no one else could match him. To win against him, he would have to ask his brother for help.
After another minute, Guan Yue employed Willpower enhancement using Gao Yuxin's ability. Gao Yuxin had often claimed that with her involvement, the power of Nine Pulse Will would increase by at least twenty percent. This time, Guan Yue used only one type of Willpower: Water's Will. He agreed for Gao Yuxin to utilize technology to improve Will Attack.
Once the attack commenced, Guan Yue kept a close eye on Lu Tao's reactions. He wanted to see if combining the enhancements from Wuji Battle Technique with Willpower and Gao Yuxin's modifications—using just one type of Willpower—could defeat Lu Tao at the Peak of the Human Realm.
After Lu Tao retracted Mental Cage, he immediately felt a profound relaxation of his spirit. He took a deep breath, and at that moment, he vaguely sensed a gentle tapping coming towards his Palace Sea. The tapping was very soft but gradually quickened, and slowly, with this tapping, the Palace Sea began to oscillate, becoming increasingly intense. Lu Tao felt a severe pain in his abdomen. He did not understand that this gentle tapping was searching for a frequency; when the frequency of the tapping perfectly matched the inherent frequency of the Palace Sea, that was when he would feel discomfort. This was a manifestation of Water Willpower, and it was a very successful attempt under Gao Yuxin's control.
Throughout the entire process, Lu Tao completely lost his ability to attack and could only passively endure the blows. For Lu Tao, this was the first time he had experienced such a situation. Deep resentment towards Guan Yue arose in his heart; he vowed to take revenge. Although Lu Tao's brother was already a half-step Guardian Realm Disciple, Lu Tao still did not want to rely on his brother to deal with Guan Yue; instead, he wanted to rely on his own strength for revenge! So he struggled desperately; he would not give up!
Lu Tao slowly crouched down amidst the intense pain in his Palace Sea and then lay on the ground; he had lost all fighting power. He could no longer use Inner Strength for defense or Origin Energy for counterattacks. He had suffered a crushing defeat!
But sadly, he did not know what exactly he had lost to!
Just as Lu Tao fell to the ground, Guan Yue kicked him: "You bastard, you think you can rise up with such ability? You really don't know your limits." Under Guan Yue's kick, Lu Tao rolled over ten meters away.
Zihongfang could hardly believe her eyes; the existence she regarded as god-like—Lu Tao—had actually been kicked over ten meters by Guan Yue? Was that still Lu Tao? Seeing him in such a sorry state caused Zihongfang's immense image of him to collapse. At that moment, Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian also opened his eyes, looking at everything in confusion, unsure of what was happening. When he saw Guan Yue standing arrogantly in the center of the arena, he looked up at Zihongfang in bewilderment. Zihongfang did not speak but nodded heavily to confirm that all of this was caused by Guan Yue. Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian felt as if struck by lightning and fainted again.
Meanwhile, an endless rage grew in Lu Tao's heart. No, today's humiliation must be repaid, and it must be repaid a hundredfold. His eyes were bloodshot because he had never suffered such humiliation in his life!
Then, Guan Yue looked at Jiang Tianlan again: "Now it's your turn. Let's have a battle."
At this moment, Xiahou Xiong first sensed something was wrong; were they all just going to stand there waiting for Guan Yue to beat them one by one? So he immediately turned around and ran away. However, as soon as he moved, Guan Yue was faster and kicked him down while binding his acupoint, rendering him unable to move.
Jiang Tianlan's face gradually turned red; he was completely enraged. A soldier can be killed but cannot be humiliated; even if he died here, he would fight Guan Yue! So he slowly stepped forward and said to Guan Yue: "Guan Yue, come on; let's fight. I cannot bring shame to our Inner Courtyard or our Southern Source royal family."
At this moment, He Bi knew from Guan Yue's gaze towards her that Guan Yue might have misunderstood her intentions. She hesitated about whether to stop him; she truly did not want Guan Yue to offend the royal family, as it would lead to endless troubles.
Du Diwei sneered secretly at Jiang Tianlan's words: "You consider yourself part of the royal family? You can only be considered a hair on the tail of the royal family at most." Seeing Jiang Tianlan challenge Guan Yue made him somewhat admire Jiang Tianlan's courage.
Guan Yue snorted; he felt no fear towards the royal family and continued walking towards Jiang Tianlan without any hesitation.
"Guan Yue, you cannot fight Jiang Tianlan; the royal family is truly formidable." He Bi once again pleaded with Guan Yue, knowing well the power of the royal family. She did not want Guan Yue to offend them.
Guan Yue smiled strangely, "I can let this bastard Jiang Tianlan go, but he won't let me off. So I might as well fight him to the death. Life and death are in the hands of fate."
Guan Yue understood very clearly that since others wanted him dead, there was no way to escape even if he knelt down; it was better to bravely confront it and fight for survival!
He Bi fell silent, while Lu Tao felt immense shame, standing up silently and looking at Guan Yue with an unusual calmness. His resolute face was filled with resentment. Xiahou Xiong could no longer move, and Xuan Yuan Shuang Tian had also fainted. Apart from Ruo Yi and others who were hiding away, only Zihongfang remained unharmed in the center, but her heart was already filled with despair; she realized she seemed to have followed the wrong person!
Jiang Tianlan walked toward Guan Yue with a belief in his inevitable death. This was the first time he faced such a life-and-death test. He never expected that the one who could evoke such feelings in him would be Guan Yue, whom he had always looked down upon. He intended to deal with Guan Yue simply because of his disrespectful words that embarrassed the disciples of the Inner Courtyard. He did not anticipate that Guan Yue would be so powerful, which greatly surprised him. However, thinking of his royal background boosted his confidence as he raised his head again while approaching Guan Yue.
Guan Yue and Jiang Tianlan drew closer.
At that moment, Dean Kintian and Grand Historian Vice Dean, who had been hiding in the higher clouds, finally revealed themselves.
"No need to continue fighting. It’s all over." With a powerful pressure of Origin Energy, Nantian and Tai Shi Xiao Xiao appeared before everyone. The immense pressure they exerted restrained all actions of Guan Yue and Jiang Tianlan.
Jiang Tianlan finally breathed a sigh of relief; these two old foxes could no longer hold back. It seemed they still valued his royal status and dared not let him come to harm. "Guan Yue, just wait; as you said, you can let me go, but I will never let you off! We will meet again!"
Guan Yue was firmly suppressed by the pressure from the two deans and could not move at all. He had no choice but to accept it. However, his anger toward Jiang Tianlan continued to grow and would not extinguish. He knew this guy would become a lifelong enemy!
Dean Kintian first went over to comfort Lu Tao; he feared that Lu Tao, who had been sailing smoothly until now, would become despondent after this setback. This was something he did not want to see, so he encouraged his disciple to lift his head high and face his shortcomings with courage. Dean Kintian was also very shocked; this Guan Yue could actually defeat Lu Tao now—only his eldest disciple, Lu Xiao, could suppress Guan Yue at this point. What a prodigy! It seemed he needed to have a serious talk with Futian as well.
