The fist intent of Zuo Dao had now reached a remarkable level, incomparable to what it was during the Moling Star incident. Jiang Yuqi and Snow Red Swallow felt as if they had stepped into an unfamiliar world, their hearts filled with joy; they had stumbled upon a treasure.
It was Jiang Yuqi who struck first. As a body cultivator, he had only one solution to any attack—violence.
With a punch that illuminated the air, his immense power tore through everything around him without exception. Body cultivators revered the aesthetics of violence; to them, everything existed solely for destruction.
As the intent was shattered, Zuo Dao's boxing technique was laid bare under the light of day. It was a restrained punch; Jiang Yuqi could hardly feel any power in it, which only heightened his excitement.
He hadn’t expected Zuo Dao to also be a body cultivator, and not a weak one at that. Judging by the might of this punch, it was at least on par with thirty percent of his own strength.
Thirty percent against thirty percent—Zuo Dao also unleashed thirty percent of his power, something entirely beyond Jiang Yuqi's expectations.
With a resounding crash, their fists collided, producing a sound akin to two massive hammers striking each other. If Snow Red Swallow hadn’t been prepared and shielded her ears with spiritual energy, she too would have been stunned by the impact.
After the blow landed, Zuo Dao frowned slightly.
"Not enough, let's go again." Jiang Yuqi was surprised by the strength of his opponent. The combat power of a body cultivator at thirty percent of the Hundred Tribulations Realm still didn’t satisfy him; it seemed that the cultivator before him was quite formidable.
"Child, don’t regret this."
With that, Jiang Yuqi no longer held back his overwhelming strength. It surged forth like a hurricane, an unending stream of power radiating from within him.
The might of body cultivators needed no explanation. At thirty percent strength, Jiang Yuqi could rival top-tier cultivators in the Void Realm; however, at five layers of strength, he had completely transcended the constraints of this world.
"I never expected our Supreme Academy would gain such a monster like you this time. I believe our rewards will be substantial!" With a hearty laugh, Jiang Yuqi launched his first attack.
Before Zuo Dao could react, he was already sent flying into the air by his opponent's strike.
Absolute power could break through anything; even if such force were diminished, it was not something an ordinary person could withstand.
Swift as lightning, heavy as a mountain.
In mid-air, Zuo Dao began to reflect. Whether this punch could potentially kill him was uncertain, but it served as a wake-up call for Zuo Dao.
Since the Moling Star incident, Zuo Dao had maintained an image of ignorance. Even among the realms of Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Divine Realm, and Void Realm, no one had been able to touch him.
Jiang Yuqi's punch came at just the right moment.
Watching Zuo Dao, who lightly floated back while wiping a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth, both Jiang Yuqi and Snow Red Swallow's expressions changed.
"Who exactly are you?" Jiang Yuqi asked in a low voice, abandoning her previous arrogance.
"I am Zuo Dao. Thank you for that punch; to show my gratitude, I would like to return the favor with one of my own."
What! He had suppressed his own strength; could it be that the other party had done the same? If that were the case, he was no longer just a monster but a non-human entity.
Step by step, Zuo Dao approached Jiang Yuqi, and a faint power seemed to awaken with each step he took.
"I have walked this path, deceived infants, tormented gods, and battled phantoms without a single failure. Gradually, I lost some of what I once possessed. Your punch today has allowed me to rediscover myself, so I must thank you!" It seemed he was explaining something; each step accompanied by a sentence moved both Jiang Yuqi and Snow Red Swallow deeply.
What kind of person is this! Deceiving infants, tormenting gods, battling phantoms. Good Son! Below the Robbery Realm, he was already invincible.
"I always thought I was invincible. Even when facing certain individuals in the past, I never doubted myself for a moment. But today, I truly want to thank you; it turns out I can still be hurt. It turns out I've been sitting in a well and watching the sky."
In that instant, Zuo Dao suddenly understood much more. Although he possessed things others did not, they were not his true foundation. In the end, one must rely on oneself. Despite his increased strength, it was still far from enough. From Jiang Yuqi, he saw some dark aspects.
The so-called darkness here did not refer to Jiang Yuqi but rather those intangible things that had always surrounded him. Perhaps the appearance of the Great Dream Elder was an opportunity that allowed him to glimpse a hint of unease. However, the Great Dream Elder's arrival magnified his ambitions while also clouding his mind.
It turned out that in the face of true strength, what he thought was invincible was actually so fragile. The Formless Five Elements True Martial Body was not omnipotent; even powerful Spiritual Awareness wasn't always useful.
All things are born and perish in opposition, always balanced in contrast, with neither absolute light nor absolute darkness.
At this moment, the spiritual energy around Zuo Dao had solidified into a tangible form. Apart from the demon cave, Zuo Dao had not used his own power since his advancement.
Looking into Zuo Dao's eyes, which burned with endless fighting spirit, Jiang Yuqi chose to trust him. A person who fights for the sake of battle would never engage in underhanded actions.
"Alright." Jiang Yuqi could no longer regard this young cultivator as an examiner; Zuo Dao was now his opponent.
"Swallow, reinforce the formation. I believe the current array cannot withstand our impact. Also, keep your distance. This is quite sinister."
Snow Red Swallow had never seen Jiang Yuqi so serious before. Even when facing the invading Alien Race, he had never shown such an expression. Sometimes, women would never understand the men around them, just as men could not comprehend women.
Watching Snow Red Swallow retreat while setting up the formation, Zuo Dao turned his gaze back to Jiang Yuqi. At that moment, only one word filled his heart.
Battle.
The surging fighting spirit ignited his True Martial Body. For a brief instant, Jiang Yuqi felt as if a powerful being stood before him.
Similarly, Zuo Dao's fighting spirit awakened the martial will within Jiang Yuqi.
Raging power surged forth from their bodies in waves, and their attacks grew increasingly ferocious. This was not an exchange of techniques but a clash of raw strength.
Onlookers outside were unaware of the scene unfolding within; they merely felt that Zuo Dao had been inside for too long. Could they really be watching a cultivator younger than themselves?
On the battlefield, the immense power even expelled the Spirit Energy from the surroundings, creating explosive reactions beside them. The Spirit Energy that could not escape was detonated by their combined might. If anyone were to witness this scene, they would find it hard to believe such beings existed in this world.
Body cultivators were indeed invincible in close combat, sweeping through all obstacles.
The two had already descended into madness in their battle. Though both were only at the fifth level of power, they possessed unwavering confidence in their physical forms. Zuo Dao was covered in wounds, and Jiang Yuqi was no exception.
Both of them were tattered and covered in countless wounds. During the battle, both sides surprisingly abandoned their defenses, focusing solely on offense. It was usually a case of one punch from me being met with a kick from the other.
Snow Red Swallow watched silently from a distance. The earlier thought of taking Zuo Dao as her student had long been cast aside; she realized she couldn't teach such a student, nor did she know how to approach it. Even most of the tutors in the mansion lacked the qualifications for such a task. Only a few hidden talents within the mansion might have that qualification.
In a world where Cultivators reigned supreme, techniques had already taken center stage, while physical cultivators mostly retreated to the sidelines. No matter how outstanding one was, they could only be considered qualified cannon fodder. In the Great Star Domain, someone like Jiang Yuqi was indeed a rare gem.
"Xi Shi, do you think Zuo Dao will fail?" Feng Miaomiao asked with concern as she looked at the area in the center of the square covered by formations.
Glancing at Feng Miaomiao, Huang Xishi remained silent. Confidence? She had never lacked it, but this time her opponent was simply too powerful—so powerful that she couldn't comprehend it.
Tai Shu Yun Pi's expression grew increasingly indifferent.
"Daozi, don't worry. If you fail, I'll set Supreme Academy ablaze," she said.
The thoughts of the three were unknown to Zuo Dao, who at that moment could only see Jiang Yuqi.
The frantic rhythm of attacks left Jiang Yuqi feeling somewhat flustered, but he still managed to maintain control. Snow Red Swallow, who had previously been unbothered, now began to move as well, continuously reinforcing the formation. At times, she almost couldn't keep up with the pace of the two fighters, nearly allowing the Great Formation to be destroyed by their hands. If that happened, how would she bear it?
"Comforting."
Suddenly, Jiang Yuqi's power surpassed Zuo Dao's; unbeknownst to him, he had raised his strength another level.
Six layers.
The moves of both fighters were chaotic; punches and kicks came straight at each other without any finesse.
Yet each strike could kill a Virtual Realm Cultivator and injure hundreds of Robber Monks.
Jiang Yuqi was a physical cultivator who combined skill and strength, but when facing Zuo Dao, he realized that all his techniques were mere clouds before his opponent. As soon as he executed a move, Zuo Dao could immediately learn it and apply it to himself. This frustrated him greatly; he didn't want to finish a fight only to find that all his techniques had been learned by his opponent.
One punch, two punches. In the end, Snow Red Swallow stopped counting how many punches Donald Duck and the others had thrown. She focused on maintaining her formation, all the while grumbling fiercely.
"I let you hit, I let you hit. Once you're done, you'll see what I can do. Here I am playing your babysitter while you create such a mess. Ugh!"
The two in the midst of their fight seemed to hear her words and shivered involuntarily. They exchanged a glance and, with an unspoken understanding, stepped back from each other.
At that moment, a voice as gentle and captivating as a soft breeze floated into their ears.
"Are you done fighting?"
Instinctively, both nodded in agreement.
"Once you're done, come over here. It's time to settle our accounts."
The previously enchanting voice suddenly transformed into a thunderous roar that echoed in their ears.
"If you don't want to die, hurry up and come over here!"
Snow Red Swallow was furious.
