Chapter 595 - 590: Words of Tigers and Wolves
In the sky, Xiao Rulong and Chi Jien were both extremely solemn, neither holding back; from the get-go, they fully unleashed their power, each wanting to gauge their true strength.
The silver dragon and the tornado intertwined, sending out shock waves and a continuous roaring and dragon chanting that lasted several seconds before, boom!
The two violent energies exploded midair, the astonishing light illuminating the entire sky as if a blazing sun had burst in the heavens, so dazzling that ordinary people could hardly keep their eyes open.
Below, Ye Feng couldn't help but nod.
"Now, Xiao Rulong's strength seems to be nearly indistinguishable from Chi Jien's. It's probably not going to be easy for these two to determine the winner."
Ye Feng muttered softly. Xiao Chuanqi and Sima Zhantian were also watching intently, feeling the energy that had exploded, all with serious expressions on their faces.
"As expected of the two great Ancient Clans' Heaven's Proud Sons. I feel like they could end in a draw!"
"Was Brother Xiao really ranked only eleventh on the Talent list before? How come I feel like Brother Xiao should be at least seventh? He hardly seems any different from Brother Chi."
"This time, for the top ten of the Talent Ranking, Brother Xiao might just break into the top five. Even that Hong Tianyu from the Hong Family might not be a match for Brother Xiao."
"Top five? Brother Xiao is so strong yet only in the top five? Then who's first?"
The discussion among them was unceasing, and Gai Jiuyou raised such a question.
At that moment, Long Nannan beside them jumped up and said, "You moron, the first is obviously Little Martial Uncle. With how strong Little Martial Uncle is, wouldn't he easily take first place at the Talent Ranking martial contests?"
Long Nannan grinned mischievously, occasionally glancing at Ye Feng with a playful smile.
"Exactly, Nine Netherworlds what's with you? Do you even need to ask such a simple question? With our lord so strong, he's bound to rightfully claim first place when the time comes, isn't it obvious?"
Xiao Chuanqi went along with Long Nannan's words and began teasing Gai Jiuyou.
Being ganged up on by the two of them left Gai Jiuyou temporarily at a loss for words, his gaze sullen as he glanced at Xiao Chuanqi. How come it seemed like you had already thought of that?
If it weren't for Long Nannan speaking first, would that bastard Xiao Chuanqi have come up with it?
Gai Jiuyou was so irritated he almost cursed out loud, but as the two were discussing their lord and hadn't said anything wrong, he couldn't really object. He could only silently stew in his irritation, his face somewhat discontent.
Seeing this, Xiao Chuanqi couldn't help but smirk.
Long Nannan then ran over to Ye Feng and latched onto his arm.
"Little Martial Uncle, you're definitely going to take first at the Talent Ranking martial contest, right?"
Long Nannan blinked her big eyes, her adorable face looking earnestly at Ye Feng.
Ye Feng couldn't help but smile wryly; these folks had been having a good chat, so how did it suddenly turn to him?
Ye Feng cleared his throat, "Don't underestimate the other great powers. Everyone has considerable strength. Although I'm quite strong, to say that I can definitively dominate over all the talents under thirty-five from the entire Outer Battlefield—that's uncertain."
"The Outer Battlefield isn't short of geniuses. Everything has to be truly tested in battle to know."
Ye Feng said with a light laugh, and Long Nannan and the people like Xiao Chuanqi all closed their mouths. They knew that what Ye Feng said was the truth.
What place is the Outer Battlefield?
It's where the earth's various great powers' Heaven's Proud Sons gather, along with the strongest members of those great powers. What they would face was not just the geniuses from Xuanyuan Nation, these young powerhouses.
They would also be up against the talent of other powers, like the previous session's Talent Ranking first-place holder in the Half-Step Golden Core Realm from the Yin-Yang Temple, a person Chi Jien couldn't withstand a single move against.
Compared to three years ago, by now that Yin-Yang Onmyoji from the Yin-Yang Temple had probably become a Great Yin-Yang Master, capable of summoning three Shikigami as powerful as themselves. Such a formidable person was not to be underestimated.
And what about some other powerhouses from previous Talent Rankings? Since Xiao Rulong and Chi Jien had improved so much, what about the rest?
Would there also be one or two dark horses?
And there was one more person...
Ye Feng thought of a name, but soon shook his head lightly, not dwelling on it any further. These matters could be considered when the upcoming Talent Ranking Martial Dao Conference came. There was no rush.
In the sky, following the explosion of the tornado and the silver dragon, Chi Jien and Xiao Rulong clashed once again.
Xiao Rulong shot up, his large folding fan in hand, which he used the Power of Spirit Essence to transform into a Giant Hand of Spirit Essence.
That Spirit Essence Hand clutched the giant fan tightly and swung it towards Chi Jien with immense speed and ferocious wind, incredibly astonishing.
"Damn you, Xiao Chubby, are you really planning to bully the small?"
Seeing the giant folding fan sweep towards him, Chi Jien was so furious he almost cursed out loud. Was this not bullying?
He knew Xiao Rulong's folding fan was a Top-Level Magic Treasure, but he hadn't expected it to be able to enlarge like that. Honestly, even he was surprised when Xiao Rulong enlarged the fan just then.
But now that Xiao Rulong had enlarged the fan, to actually swing it in full force like this—it felt like bullying. His long spear wasn't as big, right?
Hearing Chi Jien's cursing, a smile spread across Xiao Rulong's face.
"Your spear isn't as big; who can you blame for that, Brother Jerk? It looks like you're the one who's lacking."
Xiao Rulong's words hinted at more than they said, teasingly speaking out.
Below, the onlookers listened to the exchange between the two, their expressions growing slightly odd.
Xiao Chuanqi raised an eyebrow and said, "Why do I feel like the conversation between these two guys is kind of strange, is there something not quite right?"
Gai Jiuyou laughed weirdly at this moment, "Legendary, do you feel like something isn't quite right? Is it just that Chi Jianren can't make his long spear bigger?"
Gai Jiuyou intentionally emphasized the words "can't make bigger" at the end, his face conveying a playful meaning.
The silent Leng Wuming glanced at the two of them, exasperated that they had said it all.
Sausage Sister, initially a bit puzzled, thought it over carefully, and her pretty face suddenly blushed with two spots of crimson. She spat out, "Two hooligans."
Gai Jiuyou continued to look up at the sky as if the previous conversation had nothing to do with him, while Xiao Chuanqi gave an embarrassed smile and looked up as well.
Sima Zhantian, on the other hand, was somewhat clueless. He didn't understand what everyone was talking about and asked in a confused tone, "What are you guys talking about?"
Hearing Sima Zhantian's question, Xiao Chuanqi was about to explain with a strange smile, but before he could approach Sima Zhantian, Sausage Sister had already stepped forward.
"What's being said is none of your business, just keep watching the fight above."
Sausage Sister spoke coldly, giving Xiao Chuanqi a chilling glance.
Xiao Chuanqi was startled by the cold look, and simultaneously, a voice rang out in his ear.
"Say a few more words and see what happens."
Xiao Chuanqi shuddered and went back to where he was, seriously watching the fight in the sky.
Try? He didn't dare to try. Sausage Sister's message was clear: if he tried, he would certainly be dead. And that wouldn't do—he didn't want to die young.
Ye Feng watched them all, speechless. He had also picked up on the special meanings in the conversation.
He hadn't expected Xiao Rulong to tease Chi Jianren like this.
Chi Jianren, not at all as naive as Sima Zhantian, was extremely astute and immediately caught the implication in Xiao Rulong's words, instantly becoming angry.
Chi Jianren shouted loudly, "Xiao Chubby, what bull are you spinning with me? You want to compete in size? Your Grandpa Chi will show you what big really is!"
Chi Jianren's words immediately made the expressions of people like Xiao Chuanqi below even weirder. Ye Feng had to press his forehead slightly; these two guys, fighting and using such lewd rhetoric.
Glancing at Long Nannan beside him, he saw she was still attentively watching the battle. He breathed a sigh of relief—fortunately, Nannan was still quite innocent and didn't read any other meanings into the conversation.
"Mad Dragon Break of Ten Thousand Heavens!"
Chi Jianren bellowed. His silver spear was already extended, powerful Spirit Essence energy beginning to gather. Above his head, two silver dragons appeared, their size dwarfing the silver dragon from the tornado confrontation by several times.
As the two silver dragons manifested, they let out sky-shaking roars, and it seemed as if the entire secret realm was trembling. The two dragons began to intertwine and spiral towards Xiao Rulong's gigantic folding fan.
Xiao Chuanqi and others were surprised when they saw this move.
"Isn't this the exact move Brother Chi used during the Spirit Essence Pool selection? I remember it was two golden dragons before, how did it become two silver dragons now?"
Sima Zhantian posed the soulful question. He distinctly remembered gold dragons during the Martial Arts Training Plaza event, wondering why they had changed to silver.
"Dense, aren't you? There were no weapons allowed during the Spirit Essence Pool selection, didn't you see the silver spear in Brother Chi's hands now?"
Xiao Chuanqi rolled his eyes in response.
Suddenly realizing the point, Sima Zhantian nodded earnestly, "Ah, that makes sense."
Sausage Sister, standing next to Sima Zhantian, was completely speechless. Why were all their focus points so odd?
At that moment, another loud noise erupted from the sky.
Boom!
The huge folding fan clashed with the two silver dragons, as roars reverberated non-stop. The two silver dragons fiercely tried to break open the gigantic fan.
But the Giant Hand of Spirit Essence holding the gigantic fan was just as unyielding. Under Xiao Rulong's vigorous urging, the Spirit Essence Hand became more solid, and the overwhelming power of Spirit Essence left the audience below in awe.
Bang!
Another explosion echoed as the huge folding fan was blown away, and the two silver dragons let out one last roar, struggling as if in their final moments before exploding and turning into a shower of silver light that scattered across the sky.
Xiao Rulong's face paled slightly, and he took three steps back, then lifted his hand to recall the folding fan, which shrank rapidly and returned to its original size in Xiao Rulong's hand.
Also grunting, Chi Jianren stepped back two paces, his face grave.
"Brother Jerk, you win."
What do you think?
