Chapter 433: Chapter 433 Temporarily Ranked First!

With a slight exertion of his hand, he shook the Wolf Fang Club away, Fang Chao’s left hand forming a blade across his chest, and his right hand sweeping up from below, aiming a tricky angled slash at Jin Gang’s neck.

The blade carried full force and came at a cunning angle—if it had been Jin Gang from before, even if he could dodge, he would have found himself in a perilous situation.

But having undergone Li Xiaoyao’s training, Jin Gang’s reflexes and combat ability had already reached a high standard.

Faced with this strike, Jin Gang sidestepped half a step, twisted his waist, and with a follow-through motion, smashed his Wolf Fang Club at Fang Chao’s waist.

Fang Chao’s expression changed, having thought his blade would throw Jin Gang into confusion, but Jin Gang’s response greatly surprised him. The Wolf Fang Club moved with such speed that it was even faster than his own strike, and had he continued with his attack, he might have wounded Jin Gang, but he would have been injured as well.

Hesitating for half a second, Fang Chao clenched his teeth and withdrew his blade, sidestepping to block Jin Gang’s attack.

“Bang!”

The immense force transmitted through the Wolf Fang Club sent Fang Chao recoiling several meters, and Xia Ao, who had been closely watching the fight, displayed a hint of surprise in his eyes.

“This youngster has a weaker cultivation than Fang Chao, yet he is gaining the upper hand in battle!” Xia Ao’s gaze shifted to others, and when he saw that the Dragon Soul Troop was being pressured by the Long Chi Troop, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

“How is this possible?” Xia Ao, with his superior cultivation and combat experience, was not comparable to the likes of Fang Chao. With a single glance, he knew that if things continued this way, it wouldn’t be long before the Long Chi Troop would win all around, vastly different from his initial expectations.

“I can’t wait any longer.” Xia Ao ran his hand over his Storage Ring, and a Long Spear was already in his hand. His palm caressed the spear shaft, and he gripped one end, gently shaking it to whirl out a spear blossom.

“I should not need to use a spear against you, but to boost morale, you’ll have to suffer a bit,” Xia Ao said.

Li Xiaoyao replied indifferently, “Come on, then.”

“Hmph!” Enraged by his tone, Xia Ao twisted his feet on the ground, shooting towards Li Xiaoyao like an arrow leaving the string.

The spear tip pierced the void, aimed straight at Li Xiaoyao, with the sound of the blade cutting through the air echoing continuously. It was like an eagle’s screech, intent on devouring Li Xiaoyao.

In the face of this ferocious strike, Li Xiaoyao stood his ground, not moving an inch.

Xia Ao’s eyes hardened, a ferocious light flashing by, and in the next moment, the spear tip was about to penetrate Li Xiaoyao’s neck.

If the Dragon Soul Troop had the upper hand, Xia Ao might not have made such a ruthless move, but at this moment, he could not afford to hold back. Only by killing Li Xiaoyao with a single strike could he stir up everyone’s spirits; thus, Li Xiaoyao must die.

“Die!”

Li Xiaoyao’s eyelids lifted slightly, and in Xia Ao’s incredulous stare, he slowly raised his right hand, and against seemingly impossible odds, pinched the spear tip with two fingers, halting Xia Ao’s advance.

“Speed, too slow; strength, too weak. Is this all the strength a Dragon Soul Troop instructor has?” The casual words carried no intentional mockery, but they struck Xia Ao’s ears like a hammer, pounding his heart mercilessly.

“You bastard, you are only in the Qi Refining Realm; how can you be so powerful?” Xia Ao ground his teeth, questioning in despair.

“Qi Refining Realm?” As if hearing a ridiculous joke, Li Xiaoyao shook his head: “How could someone like you even begin to comprehend my cultivation level?”

Li Xiaoyao applied a slight pressure with his two fingers, and with the sound of a “ding!” the spear tip, forged from Kro alloy, snapped just like that.

Breaking Kro alloy with his flesh, this spectacle caused Xia Ao’s eyes to bulge with fear rapidly spreading through his chest.

“Spare me!” Coming to his senses, Xia Ao immediately begged for mercy.

He finally realized that Li Xiaoyao was not merely in the Qi Refining Realm but a terrifying cultivator whose cultivation level surpassed his by an unknown magnitude. To be an enemy of such a formidable figure was digging one’s own grave.

“Spare you?” A trace of a cold smile appeared on Li Xiaoyao’s face, his fingers coming together as a strand of Vigor shot out instantly, piercing Xia Ao’s forehead and drawing a trail of blood.

Xia Ao’s eyes were wide open with anger as his life slowly drained away, his body stiff as he fell backward.

“Bang!”

Xia Ao’s corpse smashed into the desert, stirring up a cloud of yellow sand.

Fang Chao, who was fiercely battling Jin Gang, was filled with rage. The opponent before him, Jin Gang, clearly had a lower cultivation level than him, yet he was constantly suppressing him, which infuriated Fang Chao.

He turned his head to look towards Xia Ao, intending to urge him to quickly take action and deal with Li Xiaoyao, but instead, he saw only Li Xiaoyao standing there, with no sign of Xia Ao.

“What’s going on?” His gaze swiftly searched the area and finally rested on Xia Ao’s body lying at the feet of Li Xiaoyao. The face of the corpse, with hardly closed eyes, still bore traces of fear.

“Dead… He’s dead!” Fang Chao’s heart trembled, revealing a moment of vulnerability, and Jin Gang took advantage of it by smashing his Wolf Fang Club onto Fang Chao’s shoulder, forcing him to kneel with both knees hitting the sand, his entire body now prostrate in the yellow sand.

Blood spurted from his mouth, staining the sand in front of him red.

Jin Gang, excited by his successful strike, stepped forward and viciously stomped on Fang Chao’s back.

“Crack!”

This stomp directly broke Fang Chao’s shoulder blade, robbing him of his ability to fight.

Jin Gang scanned the battlefield and bellowed, “Fang Chao has been defeated, will the rest of you not surrender?”

“What, Fang Chao has lost?”

“Impossible, that big guy must be lying.”

Upon hearing this, the others couldn’t help but glance over, and when they saw that Fang Chao was indeed under Jin Gang’s foot, they felt a jolt in their hearts. They then turned their hopeful gazes to Xia Ao.

“The instructor… he’s dead!”

This scene was even more shocking to everyone than if Jin Gang had killed Fang Chao.

Xia Ao was a genuine Spirit Cultivation Realm powerhouse, yet now, he was dead. Moreover, they didn’t even know when Li Xiaoyao had made his move and killed him.

“The instructor is dead, the boss is defeated, how the hell are we supposed to fight this?”

The morale of the group plummeted, and in truth, they were never a match for the members of Long Chi. They had initially thought Long Chi was the weakest team among the top ten military units, but who could have imagined that the team they perceived as the weakest would beat them without them having any power to resist? Such a massive disparity made them feel both angry and helpless.

When the last person dropped their weapon and surrendered, the victory in the first match of this year’s military competition for Long Chi Troop was finally secured.

Jin Gang quickly glanced at his watch, his eyes flickering with excitement: “Five minutes, we only used five minutes! Yes!”

And it was at that moment, a lifeless voice slowly resonated above the desert.

“Dragon Soul Troop, defeated!”

“Long Chi Troop, victory!”

“Long Chi Troop with one win and zero losses, temporarily in first place!”
