Invincible Little School Doctor

Chapter 970: Chapter 969: I’ve Given You Enough Face! (5 more)

Suddenly, a magical cauldron soared into the sky, radiating a bright glow.

”I will grant you your wish!” Ye Haochuan roared and, using the cauldron to lead the charge, launched an attack.

”Clang!”

The Golden Moon Spear shone brightly, its tip revealing a sharp edge as it struck the Strange Fire King Cauldron, instantly producing a shrill metallic clash and sparking a series of sparks.

Ye Haochuan’s Strange Fire King Cauldron was in no way inferior to Xue Tao’s Golden Moon Spear; naturally, the latter gained no advantage.

As the prolonged assault failed to prevail, impatience grew within Xue Tao.

”Hundred Shadows Thousand Illusions!”

Xue Tao immediately employed the Ruins Spear Technique, and the Golden Moon Spear burst into brilliance, the spear thrusting like a dragon, suddenly transforming into countless spear shadows, fantastical and dreamlike.

Those spear shadows, formed from spiritual energy, were incredibly realistic, making it impossible to discern the true from the false.

The longsword attacked in rapid succession, like meteorites falling from the sky, filling the air with piercing whooshing sounds.

Ye Haochuan promptly recalled the Strange Fire King Cauldron, suspending it above his head, and casting down a series of light barriers.

”Ting Ting Dang Dang!”

The barrage of spear shadows struck the light barriers, exploding into a succession of deafening noises and scattering radiant light.

However, the dense spear shadows were unable to penetrate the defensive array of the Strange Fire King Cauldron. Xue Tao immediately took a step forward and struck again.

”Hundred Shadows Return as One!”

The longsword in his hand suddenly flew out of his grasp, speeding towards Ye Haochuan.

”Ding!”

In the blink of an eye, the Golden Moon Spear had already hit Ye Haochuan’s light barrier, erupting in a violent blaze of light, dazzling to the eyes.

The two stood locked in a stalemate, neither able to gain the upper hand.

Just then, the dense cluster of spear shadows in the sky converged like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, all merging into the Golden Moon Spear.

After a moment, the Divine Might of the Golden Moon Spear was fully revealed.

”Boom!”

A resonant blast sounded, and ultimately, Ye Haochuan’s defensive light barrier was shattered by the Golden Moon Spear, sending him flying back with a powerful force.

Xue Tao’s face lit up with pleasure as he followed up firmly, with a single wave of his hand, the Golden Moon Spear flew back into his grasp.

Twirling to create another flurry of spear movements, the Golden Moon Spear emitted a series of tremors.

”Golden Moon Slash!”

With Xue Tao swinging the longspear, a series of golden crescents tore through the air.

”Boom!”

One crescent struck a rock, instantly shattering it.

”Stab!”

Another crescent hit a towering ancient tree far away, slashing it cleanly in half as if it were slicing through grass.

This move boasted unstoppable might.

”Dragon Soaring in the Sky!”

Ye Haochuan steadied himself and executed a mysterious technique, and immediately, a True Dragon roared forth, coiling around him with streams of spiritual energy cascading down.

”Go!”

Following that, Ye Haochuan controlled the Strange Fire King Cauldron, sending it breaking through the air, and the cauldron suddenly enlarged, falling from the sky like a small mountain.

Protected by the True Dragon, Ye Haochuan headed straight for the cascades of golden crescents, holding in his hand an ordinary longsword and continuously slashing.

Ye Haochuan did not wish to reveal the Divine Concealment Sword in front of so many people, so he merely launched standard attacks, keeping the splendor of the Divine Concealment Sword concealed within, hiding both thunder and fierce flame.

Still, even without employing its thunder or fire attributes, the Divine Concealment Sword was more than sufficient to deal with those golden crescents.

Advancing despite obstacles, he cut through everything in his path, an unstoppable force, the distance between him and Xue Tao closing step by step.

The Heavenly Cauldron descended from the sky, and Xue Tao felt a sudden surge in pressure, forcing him to split his attention to deal with the Strange Fire King Cauldron.

However, at that moment, Ye Haochuan moved like a ghostly specter, suddenly striking, thrusting his sword towards Xue Tao’s chest.

With the situation at a critical juncture, Xue Tao had no choice but to use his Golden Moon Spear to block, but in that moment of distraction, the cauldron from above descended with unchecked force, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood in reverse.

”Buzz!”

Ye Haochuan vibrated the longsword in his hand, emitting a buzzing sound and launched another attack.

In the midst of the battle, Xue Tao was hard-pressed, barely blocking Ye Haochuan’s sword; however, he was then sent flying by a palm strike.

”Pfft!”

Xue Tao felt his internal organs churning, again spitting out a mouthful of blood in reverse.

However, Ye Haochuan suddenly vanished on the spot like an apparition, and when he reappeared, he was already standing in front of Xue Tao, his Divine Concealment Sword at Xue Tao’s throat.

”You’ve been considerate,” Ye Haochuan said.

In the end, Ye Haochuan still did not strike a killing blow, with many fellow sect cultivators watching, he did not wish to break sect rules.

”Clang!”

The longsword fell from Xue Tao’s hand, and he suddenly felt utterly powerless: ”I... lost?”

He couldn’t accept this reality; why, even with the power comparable to the Foundation Establishment Mid-Stage granted by the Golden Moon Spear, was he still no match for Ye Haochuan?

Moreover, Ye Haochuan seemed to do it effortlessly.

”I’ve been fighting you for so long, I’ve given you enough face! Next time, be smart and don’t come looking for trouble!”

With those words, Ye Haochuan, brimming with confidence, turned and left with an air of nonchalant grace.

”Fighting for so long... He was giving me face?” Xue Tao’s mind buzzed, going blank, as he murmured, ”Impossible, how can he be that strong!”

Observing Xue Tao’s crazed demeanor, many were shocked, ”No way, it was just a lost duel, is he going mad?”

”Alas... In cultivation, the hardest demons to overcome are those within our hearts. It seems Xue Tao has been left with a great psychological shadow this time!”

”Young Master Xue!” Seeing Xue Tao was not himself, a group of cultivators from the Human Sect quickly stepped forward to take him away from the scene.

Upon returning to Long Piaoying and the others, Ye Haochuan raised his eyebrows proudly: ”I’m pretty amazing, right?”

Long Piaoying said, ”Not bad, having just broken through to the Foundation Establishment Realm and being able to defeat Xue Tao, barely satisfactory.”

Hey! Immortal Aunt, are you praising me? It sounds a bit off!

Zhu Tian commented, ”During your fight with Xue Tao, it seemed like you were still holding back.”

Ye Haochuan’s eyes lit up, he clapped Zhu Tian on the shoulder and said, ”Senior Brother Zhu has a keen eye to recognize a hero! No matter what issues I have with Xue Tao, we’re ultimately both from the Ancient Martial Arts Sect. In front of so many Xuanmen Cultivators, I couldn’t let him lose too badly.”

Long Piaoying nodded, ”Rarely do you have such awareness?”

”Oh?” Ye Haochuan chuckled, ”So, does Immortal Aunt intend to invite me for a meal to reward me?”

”Don’t even dream about it.”

”...”

After the duel between Ye Haochuan and Xue Tao, it immediately sparked heated discussions, although in the crowd, Li Mei’s expression was particularly ugly.

Initially thinking that Ye Haochuan would die at the hands of Xue Tao, she never expected such an outcome.

Previously, Li Mei intended to use the body of this Foundation Establishment Mid-Stage cultivator to kill Ye Haochuan, but after watching the duel, she immediately discarded the thought!

”This fellow brother, that battle just now brought Ye Haochuan to the forefront!”

Li Mei’s eyes shifted cunningly, as she suddenly said to a middle-aged man beside her, who was a disciple of the Institute of Extensive Learning and had not left with Bai Qing, staying to enjoy the commotion.

”Hmph, just making a show within the sect is also considered taking the spotlight?” the man disdainfully said.

Li Mei smiled, ”That may be, but everyone has seen Ye Haochuan’s strength in the fight just now, it was quite eye-catching!”

”What do you mean?”

”Hehe...” Li Mei’s eyes shone with craftiness, ”If you challenge Ye Haochuan now, the spotlight will naturally belong to you, belong to our Institute of Extensive Learning!”
