Qian Renxue's calm and composed demeanor seemed quite extraordinary to outsiders, but in reality, beneath her serene facade, turbulent waves of shock were hidden.
"It really is that guy from back then. I never imagined we'd meet again here in this way."
Looking at Quan Yi, Qian Renxue felt a mix of emotions.
Given that they had only met once, there was no real romantic connection, but Quan Yi's talent and strength at the time, as well as the resonance symbolizing a martial soul fusion technique, were unforgettable for Qian Renxue.
Yesterday, when she learned Quan Yi's name and that he was participating in the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament, Qian Renxue, with her resilient nature, couldn't resist coming to the Great Spirit Arena to confirm it with her own eyes.
"After not seeing each other for several years, let me see how much you've improved!"
In the eight years since they last met, Qian Renxue's strength had reached an incredibly terrifying level.
Especially spurred on by Quan Yi, even though she was in the enemy camp, she didn't slack off in her training.
In those eight years, Qian Renxue's spirit power level broke through the Spirit Saint realm.
Reaching the Spirit Saint realm at the age of twenty-four, her talent was a level above Feng Xiaotian's.
In fact, this was the fundamental reason why she could remain calmer than others when facing the two young Spirit Emperors, Huo Wu and Feng Xiaotian.
However, to everyone's disappointment, Quan Yi, full of mystery, slowly walked to the back of the team during the brief moment of summoning his martial soul.
We were all ready, and this is what you show us!
Feelings of dissatisfaction surged, but due to Quan Yi's still-powerful aura and the blazing aura emanating from the Blazing Academy team as a whole, they couldn't express it.
Replacing Quan Yi, Huo Wu walked to the front of the formation from the middle.
A bright smile appeared on her lips, but her eyes were like snow-capped mountains, releasing extreme coldness.
She stared coldly at Feng Xiaotian and said in a chilling tone, "Finally, I have a chance to face you head-on.
Over the years, you've been like a slippery loach, making it impossible to find an opportunity to personally teach you a lesson.
Remember, my husband has a gentle personality and would hold back against you, but I won't."
Feng Xiaotian was immediately dumbfounded. He had never anticipated that things would unfold in this way.
Where's Quan Yi?
What about a duel between men?
His hard-earned composure seemed to be undergoing violent fluctuations again at this moment.
"Hey, Quan Yi, are you planning to hide behind a woman?"
Feng Xiaotian loudly provoked Quan Yi in the rear. He would rather be beaten to death by Quan Yi than face Huo Wu.
Quan Yi chuckled and shook his head, saying, "You should first think about how to survive in Little Wu's hands."
The preparation time ended.
Just as the match officially began, a crisp yet heavy and strange whip sound reverberated throughout the arena, drawing everyone's attention back.
"Ah!"
Along with it was Feng Xiaotian's scream, as well as the sound of flesh colliding with the fast whip, which made people frown.
Just as the match began, a red whip, as fast as lightning, lashed fiercely at Feng Xiaotian's chest.
The source of the whip was the Fire Shadow behind Huo Wu.
The Fire Shadow martial soul held a long whip formed from high-temperature flames that could distort the air, and made the after-motion of swinging it.
Huo Wu in front of the Fire Shadow crossed her arms with a cold expression, staring directly at Feng Xiaotian, who was heavily injured and fell to the ground.
As the sound of the whip ended, the entire arena fell silent.
The team members behind Huo Wu all had a feeling of empathy on their faces.
Those familiar with Huo Wu knew that the current Huo Wu was the Flame Queen who had led them to dominate the Great Spirit Arena.
Her attack methods, devoid of sympathy for the enemy, inevitably made them break out in cold sweat.
"Sigh, who told you to anger Little Wu by repeatedly provoking Quan Yi?
I hope you can survive the time ahead."
Huo Wushuang put away his fighting stance and sincerely prayed for Feng Xiaotian deep down.
The Flame Queen's reputation was built on the wails and pain of countless opponents.
Sure enough, Feng Xiaotian, who was knocked to the ground by the sudden heavy blow, began to let out a terrifying scream of pain.
"Ah, ah, ah, it hurts, it hurts!"
Feng Xiaotian even began to scratch at the wound on his chest with his sharp wolf claws, not even caring about the severity of his injuries.
"Pfft!"
Conspicuous blood flowed into the ground due to his own crude movements.
Feng Xiaotian's teammates only reacted at this time, but just as they were about to make a move.
A sonic boom that seemed to shatter eardrums rang out, and then they felt their bodies being struck away by a thick metal rod.
The irresistible force swept them, a group of flying-type spirit masters with flying abilities, off the stage without any resistance.
Six humans, like sandbags, fell heavily outside the arena, completely dizzy.
"Such fast speed, such domineering power, it actually made Feng Xiaotian unable to react."
On the spectator stand, Tang San's eyes glowed with purple light, but with his current eyesight, he couldn't see when Huo Wu launched her spirit skill at all.
By the time he reacted, Feng Xiaotian had already fallen.
Even with the second whip strike, he couldn't see the trajectory clearly. If it were him, the same force would likely have directly resulted in death.
"This isn't a simple whip technique. This girl uses highly compressed firepower to propel the overall acceleration of the fire whip, which allows it to exert a super-strong strike beyond its own level, beyond the limits of the spirit skill.
This method of controlling fire while maintaining the overall balance of the whip and accelerating it, combined with her Spirit Emperor-level spirit power, makes this strike enough to threaten a Spirit Saint.
Even I would need to deal with it seriously to dodge it."
The speaker was Flender, who was a Spirit Saint in the late stage and specialized in agility-based attacks.
Only Spirit Masters at the Spirit Saint level in the arena could see Huo Wu's attack just now.
However, as soon as Flender finished speaking, the situation in the arena changed again.
Four more thick, orange-red whips emerged from the Fire Shadow behind Huo Wu.
In the next second, the four whips shot towards Feng Xiaotian like four flashes of light.
"Snap!"
This time, Huo Wu didn't attack directly. The whips actually replaced Huo Wu's limbs, tightly entangling Feng Xiaotian's limbs and pulling his body into the air, quickly tightening his limbs and hanging him in the air.
His claws, which were still scratching at his chest, were also firmly controlled by Huo Wu.
"Hey, hey, I didn't allow you to commit suicide."
Huo Wu stared emotionlessly at Feng Xiaotian, who was constantly twisting his limbs in pain.
"Snap!"
Another whip shadow landed on Feng Xiaotian's body. This time, Huo Wu completely slowed down her speed, making it clearly visible.
The scene before them made the audience realize the coldness hidden beneath Huo Wu's beautiful appearance.
