Xue Ming, nicknamed the Flying Snow Sword, was ranked in the top ten of the Honor Roll of the Academy. His powers had already reached the upper level of the Origin General Stage a year ago and he had now reached the peak of the Origin General Stage. He was only one step away from breaking through to the Xiantian Stage.
Not only was he powerful, but he was also handsome and confident. He was the idol of many female disciples in the Academy!
However, he was dismissive of these female disciples and had even rejected the advances of Bai Ruoxue, who was ranked fourth among the Five Beauties of the Academy.
Bai Ruoxue was an extremely beautiful woman and was the granddaughter of an ordinary Elder in the Academy. She had countless suitors!
Xue Ming had actually rejected her and everyone was taken aback.
However, when everyone found out that the person Xue Ming was pursuing was Cymbidium Purpurea, everyone was filled with admiration.
Cymbidium Purpurea was the most beautiful woman in the Academy and was also the noblest woman in the Empire. Naturally, there were countless people who had a crush on her but there were not many who dared to pursue her!
This was because her status and beauty were enough to make many people feel inferior and caused most men to lose the courage to pursue her.
Unfortunately, Xue Ming's pursuit for two years had not paid off.
This was Xue Ming's only regret in these two years!
However, he did not want to see anyone else get the woman that he could not get. That would make him seem too useless and a failure!
However, Yao Yue's sudden appearance had made him extremely jealous!
This was why Xue Ming had been targeting Yao Yue!
Yao Yue was younger than Xue Ming by a year. After a year of cultivation, he had completed his transformation and looked even more handsome than Xue Ming. His demonic aura was even more imposing than Xue Ming's.
The only thing Yao Yue lacked was that his reputation was not as resounding as Xue Ming's. Otherwise, the gazes of the female disciples below the stage would all be focused on him.
On this World Star, handsome men were not the most popular. Only the most powerful men were the most popular among women!
As the saying goes, beauties love heroes. This is the truth!
When Xue Ming and Yao Yue stood on the stage at the same time, it was as if the sun and the moon were competing with each other. This caused the male disciples below the stage to feel inferior. As for the female disciples, they couldn't help but exclaim and express their admiration for them!
"Xue Ming already has a devilish appearance, but Yao Yue is even more perfect. She's probably even more beautiful than a woman!"
"It's one thing for him to be handsome, but he is also so strong. How are we supposed to survive?"
"Xue Ming, I love you! You must defeat Yao Yue!"
"I prefer Yao Yue's type. She's so cute. I hope he doesn't lose too badly."
"Even the seventh princess has chosen Yao Yue. I also think that Yao Yue is better. He will definitely be an upset!"
The battle on the stage hadn't started yet, but the audience was already in an uproar.
In their eyes, the previous two battles were only warm-up matches. This battle was the main event!
If it were any other new disciple challenging Xue Ming, they wouldn't even need to come and watch. They would think that Xue Ming would definitely win.
However, this time, Yao Yue was challenging Xue Ming. This was because Yao Yue was not only the champion of the new batch of disciples, but he had also defeated a high-grade Origin General deacon not long ago. Therefore, they felt that Yao Yue was indeed qualified to challenge Xue Ming.
On the stage, Yao Yue said to Xue Ming, "I originally respected you as my senior brother and didn't want to bicker with you. However, you are too shameless. Not only did you frame us, you even harmed Senior Brother Qiu. In this battle, I will make you regret everything you have done. I will take all your glory for you!"
Yao Yue spoke very calmly, but everyone present could hear him clearly.
Xue Ming sneered, "You are the one who harmed Qiu Chen. You are all deserters. This is an undeniable fact!"
"Is that so?
Everyone has seen it. The strength of my two brothers is enough to prove everything. We are all stronger than them, so why would we desert?
I hope everyone can use their brains and think carefully! "
Yao Yue said to the crowd. He paused for a moment before continuing, "There are many things that I don't want to explain because the truth will prove everything. Xue Ming, you are the one who framed us. The deaths of the other disciples are also your fault. I will seek justice for them!"
After saying that, Yao Yue walked towards Xue Ming step by step. A powerful demonic aura rose behind him, as if there were many demonic beasts roaring behind him.
Yao Yue didn't use any weapons, but he was as domineering as a demon king.
"Another disciple who has condensed his aura. This is amazing!" Skysplitter praised.
Back then, he had wanted to take Yao Yue as his disciple. If Situ Qing hadn't interfered, he would have had a share of Yao Yue's achievements.
"Haha, what arrogance. Then let's see if you are qualified to do so!" Xue Ming laughed.
He saw that Yao Yue didn't use any weapons, nor did he take out his Flying Snow Sword. He was waiting for Yao Yue to attack him.
No matter what, he was still one of the top ten on the ranking list. He wouldn't casually make the first move against a new disciple.
Yao Yue didn't hold back. He said, "I only need five moves to defeat you. If I can't defeat you in five moves, I will admit defeat and be expelled from the academy."
Yao Yue's words immediately caused an uproar. Every disciple cried out in alarm.
"What did Yao Yue say? He said he can defeat Xue Ming in five moves. Did I hear wrongly?"
"I don't think so. He also said he will be expelled if he can't defeat Xue Ming in five moves. What arrogance!"
"Among the top ten on the ranking list, apart from the three freaks in the top three, who else would dare to say such a thing to Xue Ming? Yao Yue is too conceited. He will have to pay the price for that!"
"Looks like he has grown too quickly. He has forgotten himself. However, I have a feeling that Yao Yue will be like Zhang Mengfei and create a miracle!"
No one thought that Yao Yue could win the battle. Now that he had said such a thing, everyone felt that it was unrealistic.
"Elder Qing, your disciple is really arrogant!" Skysplitter said to Situ Qing.
Situ Qing replied calmly, "If he is so confident, Xue Ming will be defeated in five moves!"
If she hadn't tested Yao Yue's strength, she wouldn't have believed that Yao Yue could defeat Xue Ming in five moves.
Now, she was very confident in Yao Yue's strength.
Yao Yue was able to condense innate fire when he was only a low-grade Origin General. Who could compare to him?
Perhaps I have nothing left to teach him! Situ Qing's beautiful eyes flickered with a complicated look as she thought to herself.
Xue Ming was infuriated by Yao Yue's words. His handsome face turned gloomy as he shouted, "Because of your words, I have decided to turn you into a cripple!"
By the time he finished speaking, Yao Yue had already launched a punch at him.
Demonic Astral Art, Form Attack!
Yao Yue directly attacked Xue Ming with his most domineering strength. With a bear paw fanning furiously and a tiger roaring, he attacked with both hands. His strength directly reached 1,800 kilograms, which was definitely the strength of a peak-level Yuan General.
Although Xue Ming was furious, he didn't let his guard down. On the contrary, he decided to cripple Yao Yue and let Yao Yue know the consequences of offending him.
Demonic Palm!
Xue Ming's palms glowed with a translucent cold air. A strong evil feeling floated out from his palms. His palms, which contained a powerful destructive power, met Yao Yue's attacks.
Demonic Palm was a high-grade general technique unique to the Glacial Dynasty's royal family. Apart from increasing the strength of one's palms, it also contained a cold demonic aura. Once struck, the cold demonic aura would enter one's body and destroy one's meridians and organs.
Bang!
Bang!
In an instant, Yao Yue and Xue Ming exchanged more than ten blows. Muffled sounds rang out one after another.
The two of them were actually evenly matched. Neither of them took half a step back, and neither of them was injured.
However, Xue Ming felt his arms becoming numb and uncomfortable. He was shocked. How could Yao Yue be so strong?
Yao Yue also felt Xue Ming's cold demonic aura. However, his physique was different from ordinary people, so he was able to withstand it.
"The first move is over. Look forward to the second move!" Yao Yue revealed a faint demonic smile.
Demonic Aura Tactics: Devour!
Yao Yue's aura increased once again. Groups of demonic shadows floated around him as if hundreds of demonic beasts were pouncing on their prey at the same time. The scene was so ferocious that it sent chills down people's spines.
Yao Yue's attacks also became denser with this move. His strength had increased by another 50 jin!
Xue Ming's eyes flashed with a cold light. White light flickered on his body. He crossed his palms and pushed the cold demonic aura to the limit!
Demonic Eighteen Palms!
Eighteen palm imprints blasted toward the demonic beasts' attacks that Yao Yue had sent out at the same time.
The collision of fists and palms, the turbulence of power, made the battle scene incomparably intense and exciting.
The people below the stage held their breaths and watched carefully. They wanted to take this opportunity to gain some experience. It would be very beneficial for them in future battles.
Ah!
A miserable cry rang out as a figure was forced to retreat in a sorry state.
The figure that was forced to retreat was Xue Ming. There were two red palm imprints on his face and his eyes had turned into panda eyes. His handsome appearance was immediately replaced by a comical appearance!
It could be seen that Yao Yue had made Xue Ming suffer a loss and gained the upper hand in the second move!
"Damn it. I will kill you!"
Xue Ming lost in the battle of palms and fists. However, he did not think that he would lose because he was good at swordsmanship. He shouted and the Flying Snow Sword on his back was finally unsheathed!
Swoosh!
A ray of light that was as clear as snow shot up into the sky. The sword aura was so strong that it was intimidating!
Flying Snow Sword Tactics: Ice Sealing Ten Thousand Miles!
This was an Imperial Skill. As soon as the sword was unleashed, cold air spread out in all directions. It was as if snowflakes were flying in all directions and freezing thousands of miles!
Xue Ming's sword was extremely overbearing. Its strength had reached 2,000 jin. He wanted to finish off Yao Yue in one move.
No wonder he was in the top ten of the Windcloud List. This sword was not something that an ordinary Yuan General at the pinnacle could withstand.
"Come on. It's more interesting to defeat you like this!" Yao Yue said indifferently. He pulled out the long sword from his waist and slashed out at the same time!
The Sword of Force from the Twelve Sword Manuals!
