Supreme Lord of Towers

”Duanmu Xiong, thinking you can defeat me with just your Bloodline Power is nothing but foolish dreaming.” On the Zodiac Battle Platform, Lin Zixuan couldn’t help but shout angrily, her expression extremely furious.

After all, she was a genius who had awakened an Eighth Grade Profound Level bloodline, and her cultivation had already reached the Half-Step Celestial Spirit Realm.

Yet, Duanmu Xiong was attempting to defeat her using only pure Bloodline Power.

He was underestimating her too much.

Roar.

In the next instant, the Purple Gold Thunder Leopard behind Lin Zixuan let out an angry roar, its body unleashing an immense amount of terrifying purple lightning, striking densely towards the Silver Sword Dragon.

With a loud bang.

However, the body of the Silver Sword Dragon was too strong, and the purple lightning striking on it couldn’t cause any damage.

Instead, it continued to charge towards Lin Zixuan’s delicate body at high speed.

”True Qi, circulate for me.” Lin Zixuan’s face changed slightly, quickly pushing the True Qi in her body to the extreme.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle.

In the next moment, a surge of violent True Qi erupted from Lin Zixuan’s body, enveloping her completely, mixed with a large amount of Gang Qi.

Like Liu Feng, Lin Zixuan’s cultivation was also just one step away from reaching the Gang Qi Realm, and she also had a Qi Sea Foundation twice as large.

So, just by leveraging her True Qi, she could unleash a force of about seventy tigers.

Of course, if she only relied on True Qi, Lin Zixuan would absolutely not be able to resist against Duanmu Xiong’s Silver Sword Dragon Bloodline.

Only by injecting True Qi into the Purple Gold Thunder Leopard Bloodline could she unleash her true power.

”Get out of my way!” Lin Zixuan shouted gracefully, instantly injecting all the True Qi around her body into the Purple Gold Thunder Leopard.

Rumble.

In an electrifying moment, the power of the Purple Gold Thunder Leopard suddenly surged up, even the purple lightning around its body increased several folds, becoming extremely violent, enough to make souls tremble.

”Look quickly, the Fifth Princess is finally getting serious.”

”With the addition of True Qi, her Purple Gold Thunder Leopard Bloodline can exert its full power. Duanmu Xiong dreaming of defeating the Fifth Princess with pure Bloodline Power alone is impossible,” the surrounding freshmen couldn’t help but discuss.

Originally, if Lin Zixuan hadn’t used True Qi, her Purple Gold Thunder Leopard Bloodline could at most unleash the power of about eighty tigers, far from a match against Duanmu Xiong’s Silver Sword Dragon Bloodline.

But now, with the massive addition of True Qi, the power of her Purple Gold Thunder Leopard Bloodline had more than doubled.

Even Duanmu Xiong felt a sense of threat.

”Kill it for me.” As Lin Zixuan’s mind moved, the Purple Gold Thunder Leopard behind her wrapped her body in the middle, leaving an afterimage, swiftly pouncing towards the Silver Sword Dragon.

At the same time, huge purple lightning bolts continued to be released from the Purple Gold Thunder Leopard’s body, containing incredibly fearful destructive power, striking towards the Silver Sword Dragon.

At this moment, the power Lin Zixuan unleashed reached about a hundred and sixty tigers, more terrifying than the power Ye Chen displayed when defeating Liu Feng.

And with the aid of the purple lightning, she could also weaken Duanmu Xiong’s power to some extent, creating a balance of power.

”I never said I would defeat you with pure Bloodline Power; only a fool would do that.” Facing Lin Zixuan’s full-force strike, Duanmu Xiong not only showed no panic, but even a hint of mockery flashed across his lips, as if everything was within his control.

Rumble.

The next instant, a surge of extremely violent True Qi surged out from Duanmu Xiong’s body, frantically injecting into the Silver Sword Dragon behind him.

His cultivation had already reached the Half-Step Celestial Spirit Realm, and he also had a Qi Sea Foundation twice as large, so his True Qi was no weaker than Liu Feng’s or Lin Zixuan’s.

The only difference was that his Silver Sword Dragon Bloodline was far stronger than the bloodlines of Liu Feng and Lin Zixuan.

”Oh no, Duanmu Xiong is also using True Qi.”

”Could he have been deliberately pretending to be weak earlier to lure the Fifth Princess into his trap? This guy is too despicable,” the bodies of the watching freshmen suddenly trembled, their expressions becoming extremely ugly.

Before, the reason Duanmu Xiong didn’t use True Qi, opting instead to attack Lin Zixuan with the pure power of the Silver Sword Dragon Bloodline, was likely to provoke Lin Zixuan into attacking him.

After all, Lin Zixuan’s Purple Gold Thunder Leopard Bloodline was known for its speed, and even if Duanmu Xiong wanted to hit her, it wouldn’t be an easy task.

But now, Lin Zixuan had taken the initiative to control the Purple Gold Thunder Leopard to attack Duanmu Xiong.

This undoubtedly presented a God-given opportunity for Duanmu Xiong.

Roar.

Amidst the shock of the crowd, the Silver Sword Dragon, already standing as tall as a seven or eight-story building, absorbed Duanmu Xiong’s True Qi, and its body swelled once more, reaching a height of about ten zhang, like a towering silver Divine Mountain above the Zodiac Battle Platform.

A terrifying pressure emanated from the body of the Silver Sword Dragon, leaving everyone breathless.

”Lin Zixuan, you’ve fallen for my trap. Accept your defeat.” Duanmu Xiong’s mouth curled with a sinister smile, looking at Lin Zixuan as if she were a prey waiting to be slaughtered.

With a loud bang.

In the next instant, the Silver Sword Dragon’s tail, bristling with sharp spikes, lashed out at Lin Zixuan like a silver mountain range, causing even the air to explode, producing waves of white air currents.

”No!” Lin Zixuan’s face changed dramatically, and even the hair on her body stood on end involuntarily.

It was only at this moment that she finally realized she had fallen into Duanmu Xiong’s trap.

Originally, her Purple Gold Thunder Leopard, although not as powerful as Duanmu Xiong’s Silver Sword Dragon, was faster.

If she had employed evasive tactics to maneuver around Duanmu Xiong, it wouldn’t have been easy for him to defeat her.

But just now, she was blinded by anger and chose to attack Duanmu Xiong directly.

Even if she regretted it now, it was already too late.

Rumble.

In the blink of an eye, the massive tail of the Silver Sword Dragon dispersed the purple lightning surrounding the Purple Gold Thunder Leopard, then slammed into its body with a thunderous roar.

A piercing scream echoed above the Zodiac Battle Platform, chilling to the bone.

The Purple Gold Thunder Leopard’s body was sent flying, with huge cracks appearing on it, resembling a shattered ceramic.

It flew back dozens of zhang before crashing to the ground.

Although Lin Zixuan’s delicate body was protected by the Purple Gold Thunder Leopard, blood kept gushing from her mouth, her face losing all color, looking even worse than a corpse.

At this moment, she suffered a backlash from the Purple Gold Thunder Leopard’s Bloodline Power, causing many of her meridians to break instantly, her internal organs severely injured, leaving her completely incapable of fighting.

”Ha! Fifth Princess, you’re too naive. You may have strength, but you lack combat skills. Even someone weaker than you might defeat you, let alone me.” Duanmu Xiong couldn’t help but sneer, his expression exceedingly arrogant.

Not only is his talent exceptionally high, but he’s been fighting Demon Beasts all his life, possessing combat experience far surpassing what a pampered princess like Lin Zixuan could match.

Even if his bloodline was not as strong as Lin Zixuan’s, he had full confidence in defeating her.

”Defeated! The Fifth Princess was defeated just like that.”

”That was too fast.” The new students watching were all rooted to the spot, unable to believe their own eyes.

They had originally thought that even if Lin Zixuan wasn’t as strong as Duanmu Xiong, she should have been able to hold out against him for some time.

But unexpectedly, she was defeated by Duanmu Xiong within moments.

This completely shattered everyone’s expectations.

”Lin Zixuan possesses a decent talent, but unfortunately, her lack of combat experience led to her quick defeat by Duanmu Xiong.” Above the Zodiac Battle Platform, the Celestial Flame Peak Master shook his head.

”It seems that the champion of this new student competition is none other than Duanmu Xiong. Whether in strength or combat experience, he stands unparalleled among the new students.” On the side, the Soul Palace Master Chen Fei added in admiration.

”Senior Brother Chen, you’re too kind; Duanmu Xiong still has a long way to go!” Duanmu Ying smiled slightly.

Despite her words, she was quite satisfied with Duanmu Xiong’s performance.

Although the bloodline Duanmu Xiong awakened might be slightly inferior to Duanmu Jie’s, in due time, he holds great potential to become a Seed Student.

Winning first place in the new student competition was merely the beginning for him.

”I can’t believe I was defeated so quickly.” On the Zodiac Battle Platform, Lin Zixuan struggled to rise from the ground, her eyes filled with intense humiliation.

Not even she had anticipated being so easily defeated by Duanmu Xiong.

”Don’t feel disgraced for losing to me, the outcome would be the same regardless of who you faced.” Duanmu Xiong chuckled, exceedingly arrogant.

”Arrogant soldiers often fall. Duanmu Xiong, don’t gloat too soon, someone will defeat you eventually.” Lin Zixuan said, her face sullen.

”Oh really? I’m interested to see who could possibly defeat me.” Duanmu Xiong couldn’t suppress his sneer, maintaining an air of supremacy.

Immediately, his gaze fell upon Ye Chen, his tone dismissive, ”I didn’t expect a waste like you, unable to awaken your bloodline, to make it to the final two. If you don’t want to disgrace yourself, just admit defeat, I really couldn’t be bothered to deal with you.”
