Chapter 20 One-hit kill
Chapter 20 One-hit kill
Seeing the approaching lightning, the senior students involuntarily took two steps back.
Above the thunder, they sensed a destructive aura that made their hearts tremble.
"Is he really a freshman? I feel like even the top ten on the Divine Soul Ranking are far inferior to him."
"Shh! Keep your voice down, don't look intimidated. We are their seniors after all."
"That's right, we are their seniors. We've been in the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy for a year longer than them, so how could we be no match for them?"
"If you ask me, this should be some kind of illusion. Don't be fooled. That last attack was probably his limit. He should be powerless to fight back now. This is all an illusion."
The senior students, one after another, tried their best to maintain their last bit of self-respect and dignity as senior students.
"Shut up, all of you! If you're strong, you're strong; if you're weak, you have to accept it!" An Ran shouted at the group of senior students behind her.
She has always believed that strength is king, and now that Qin Hao has shown his strength, she has put away her initial contempt.
As fellow cultivators at the Fusion Heaven Realm, An Ran could clearly feel the pressure emanating from Qin Hao.
The pressure was making it hard for her to breathe.
Qin Hao, who had fully revealed his strength, didn't feel like a freshman at all to her; he seemed more like the oppressive force emanating from those guys on the academy's top ranking list.
This sense of oppression was even stronger than that of the guys on the academy's top ranking.
However, as a student of the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy, An Ran would not give up directly, much less surrender without a fight.
"Hey!"
A sharp cry suddenly rang out from An Ran's body, and the surrounding world was instantly covered by a layer of frost.
A chilling frost power erupted from his body, attempting to freeze everything.
Behind it, an icy blue phantom materialized.
This is a giant, ice-blue eagle, its entire body covered in thick ice armor, emanating an astonishing chill.
The Northern Darkness Golden-Striped Eagle ranks 65th on the List of Ten Thousand Beasts!
"The Golden-Striped Eagle of the Northern Night! I didn't expect Senior Sister An to activate the power of her divine soul so quickly."
"We can win, right? This guy is ranked 65th on the Beast Records Ranking."
A group of senior students discussed among themselves, their eyes filled with hope as they looked at An Ran, all hoping that An Ran could preserve the last vestiges of their dignity.
An Ran looked at Qin Hao and said, "I can sense that you are very strong, so I will use my strongest power to fight you. I hope you can do the same."
"Let's not, senior. If I really used my full strength, I'm afraid I'd just kill you."
Qin Hao said in a calm tone.
Upon hearing this, An Ran's eyelids twitched. She hadn't expected Qin Hao to be so disrespectful.
However, considering his previous remarks, he knew he had no choice but to bear the consequences himself.
She took a deep breath. "Let's see who's the best then."
An Ran made a sudden move, and a chilling aura surged toward Qin Hao. The Northern Darkness Golden-Patterned Eagle behind her also let out a loud cry.
The Northern Darkness Golden-Striped Eagle flapped its wings, releasing a dense chill, and its massive body instantly transformed into a streak of icy blue light as it sped away.
The air was chilling wherever it went, leaving a trail of frost on the ground.
Faced with this terrifying attack, Qin Hao slightly raised his palm, and lightning flashed, with terrifying thunder gathering in his palm.
In an instant, a powerful column of lightning erupted forth.
A terrifying aura of destruction erupted, and everything in its path was destroyed by the lightning.
The icy path left by the Northern Darkness Golden-Patterned Eagle was instantly destroyed, and its body was also swallowed by lightning in that instant.
Struck by the lightning, An Ran's spiritual power dissipated, and her body was blasted dozens of meters away, sliding on the ground for a long time before finally coming to a stop.
If Qin Hao hadn't stopped in time, that attack would have completely obliterated her.
Even so, An Ran was not in good condition at the moment, and she spat out a mouthful of bright red blood.
"Senior An!"
The senior students exclaimed in surprise and rushed over.
"How could you be so ruthless, freshman? Senior An only wanted to..."
Before the person could finish speaking, An Ran interrupted them with a sharp rebuke, "Enough! Shut up! Aren't you embarrassed enough already?!"
She took out a pill to alleviate her injuries, then cupped her hands in thanks to Qin Hao, saying, "Thank you for your mercy today, junior brother. I have learned a great deal from you."
This battle made her clearly understand what it means to be outmatched and to be in a world of endless possibilities.
He thought that he had gained some strength and confidence after cultivating at the Northern Cang Spiritual Academy for so long, but today's battle completely shattered his confidence.
Both being at the Fusion Heaven Realm, she was defeated in just one move.
If the other party hadn't held back, she would have been completely engulfed by the lightning by now.
The gap between them was so large that she saw absolutely no hope of catching up.
"Is it... over?" A freshman murmured in disbelief as he watched the scene unfold.
"This strength is too great! Both are at the Fusion Realm, yet this one defeated them in a single move without even using the power of a spirit beast's essence?"
"Ahem, quiet down."
Elder Bai coughed twice, signaling everyone in the hall to quiet down.
He looked at the group of senior students and said, "You have probably seen how big the gap is between you and true geniuses. I hope that from now on you will curb your arrogance and cultivate yourselves properly."
"Yes, Elder Bai." The group of senior students nodded in agreement.
Then, Elder Bai looked at Qin Hao with admiration in his eyes, "Your strength and talent are both very strong. The Northern Cang Spiritual Academy will be a stage for you to showcase your abilities. I look forward to the day when you become famous throughout the world."
After leaving the battlefield, Mu Chen immediately came over and said with some envy, "Brother Hao, your strength is too strong."
He killed that senior sister in the Fusion Realm with just one move.
"You've struck it rich! That's 50,000 spirit points!"
"Congratulations, with 50,000 spirit points, your cultivation path will be much smoother."
Even Luo Li, who had always maintained a cold and serious demeanor, offered her congratulations.
Her gaze lingered on Qin Hao for a long time.
She saw in Qin Hao what she had always longed for.
Strength, the strength to solve everything.
Although Qin Hao's strength was only at the Fusion Realm, Luo Li knew that this young man would surely become famous throughout the world and become a supreme being in the future.
And that is precisely what she is currently pursuing.
As the queen of the Luo Shen clan, she needs sufficient strength to solve the problems that the Luo Shen clan is facing.
Qin Hao displayed the strength she longed for, and even a single possibility made her take notice and be moved.
"The challenge continues. Who else wants to take on the challenge?" Elder Bai asked the group of new students with level seven spiritual power imprints.
"Master Bai, I want to challenge Senior An Ran," Luo Li said first.
She also wanted to challenge An Ran and see just how big the gap was between herself and the strength she aspired to.
An Ran looked at the white-haired girl in front of her with some surprise, then nodded, "Come on, I hope you have the corresponding strength."
Looking directly at An Ran, Luo Li said, "Senior, please fight me after you recover from your injuries. I don't want to take advantage of you in your weakened state."
Hearing this, An Ran's lips twitched.
For some reason, he felt like he was being used as a unit of measurement for combat strength.
