Chapter 142: Chapter 123: Retreat from the House (3) Chapter 142: Chapter 123: Retreat from the House (3) Everyone was astonished when Su Yuan and Zhou Hao clashed.

“Clang, clang, clang…”

Swords and sabers continuously collided.

Zhou Hao kept retreating, never expecting that Su Yuan, who could summon terrifying Hellfire, was actually a warrior with superior physical strength to himself!

It was not unusual for warriors to embed summoning skills; after all, they could aid in combat.

If the summoning skills were powerful enough, sacrificing one or two skill slots wouldn’t be a loss.

But the issue was, how did a warrior find the time and energy to practice a summoning skill to such a high level while neglecting their basic combat skills?

Su Yuan, of course, wouldn’t explain to him.

With another slash, he sent Zhou Hao stumbling back again.

Su Yuan opened his left hand, and under the effect of Overload, Gray Flame Strike rapidly condensed.

Zhou Hao grunted as he was knocked back by Su Yuan’s immense strength.

Just as he steadied himself, he felt a strong fluctuation of Fire Element emanating from the front.

He looked up to see the Azure Blue Flames in Su Yuan’s hand flickering violently, almost about to burst out!

Zhou Hao instinctively wanted to dodge, but at this moment, a gray light encircled Su Yuan’s body.

An overwhelming pressure suddenly descended upon Zhou Hao!

“This was the move that caused Cai Fanghua’s downfall earlier!” Zhou Hao immediately realized.

Even with all his Star Power, he could barely move under such terrifying pressure.

No wonder Cai Fanghua was slammed to the ground earlier without any warning!

In a critical moment, Zhou Hao activated his mind.

Frost Flowers fluttered at his feet, and a massive prismatic Ice Crystal sprang up, pushing him out of the range of Elemental Magnetism Pressure.

The Gray Flame Strike hit the prismatic Ice Crystal, causing it to shatter instantly.

Zhou Hao, out of the pressure zone, landed steadily on the ground.

Su Yuan’s eyes flickered slightly, and he praised, “Impressive.

No wonder you dared to approach.”

But Zhou Hao’s face was not relaxed at all.

After witnessing Su Yuan use Elemental Magnetism Pressure to overpower Cai Fanghua, Zhou Hao planned to use an Ice Crystal to move within the pressure zone.

He originally planned to use this method to close the distance quickly after sealing off Hellfire and subdue Su Yuan, but he didn’t expect Su Yuan’s close combat capability to be so strong.

“In that case, let’s attack from a distance!”

Among Zhou Hao’s Six-dimensional Qualifications, his defense was 62 points, and his Star Power was as high as 66 points.

His Strength, Agility, and Constitution were relatively average.

So most of his chosen skills were inclined towards Star Power attacks, making him quite adept at long-range combat.

At this moment, Zhou Hao’s eyes focused, and a massive amount of Cold Ice Qi surged out from within him and entwined his sword.

“White Snake Sword Dance!”

Zhou Hao swung his sword repeatedly.

Each swing infused Ice Qi into the sword, transforming into tangible Ice White Snakes that shot out.

Facing the incoming Ice White Snakes, Su Yuan remained calm.

With a flick of his long saber, Dark Space Power flowed along the blade.

With agile footwork, he effortlessly slashed the incoming Ice White Snakes into pieces with casual strikes!

Zhou Hao was greatly surprised by this.

The Ice White Snakes, formed from Cold Ice Qi, were fast, penetrative, and extremely hard, comparable to some low-grade materials used to forge Star Devices.

Yet they were so easily destroyed by Su Yuan!

ƝοѵǤօ.сօ

“Space Skill, huh?

Quite overbearing…”

Zhou Hao looked at the black light with Space Power flickering faintly on Su Yuan’s saber and quickly understood.

With a swift thought, Zhou Hao swung his sword again.

This time, he poured all the Cold Ice Qi into his longsword.

In an instant, the frost on the sword surged.

With a powerful slash, a lifelike, extinction-imbued snow-white Ice Chi flew towards Su Yuan!

Clenching his longsword, Zhou Hao focused intensely as the snow-white Ice Chi approached Su Yuan.

In an instant, it was about to hit.

“He can’t easily withstand this move, so the best choice would be…”

At this moment, a faint fluctuation of Star Power appeared behind Zhou Hao, and with a flash of silver light, Su Yuan had instantly teleported over, raising his Dragon Armor Saber enveloped in Dark Space Power and slashing down!

Zhou Hao’s eyes lit up.

Without turning his head, he immediately formed a seal technique.

“Ice Chi Shadow Transformation!”

A brilliant white light shone, and Zhou Hao’s entire body transformed into an ice statue emitting terrifying cold.

“Boom!”

In an instant, the ice statue exploded!

White light surged, cold currents scattered, and the raging Ice Element roared continuously in the arena.

In the distance, the flying Ice Chi stopped, its ice crystals dissolving and transforming.

Moments later, Zhou Hao’s figure emerged from it as if he had always been inside the Ice Chi!

Turning around to see the Ice Element covering a radius of dozens of meters, Zhou Hao couldn’t help but be pleased.

“Plan successful!”

Su Yuan’s unexpected warrior identity had caused a fundamental problem in his tactic of “sealing the Stone Man, subduing Su Yuan.”

If he couldn’t quickly take Su Yuan down before the two Hellfires broke free, he would undoubtedly lose.

Thus, he took a risk, aiming for a quick victory.

Zhou Hao used himself as bait, unleashing the ultra-powerful Ice Chi attack.

Once utilized, Su Yuan, thinking from his perspective, would likely dodge and counterattack with Instant Movement.

This would allow Zhou Hao to escape using Ice Chi Shadow Transformation and leave an explosive amount of Ice Element in his original form, defeating Su Yuan in one strike!

Everything was progressing exactly as Zhou Hao had anticipated.

But just then, a subtle Space fluctuation appeared behind him.

Zhou Hao’s pupils contracted, about to act, when a black-glowing saber was already at his shoulder.

“Sorry, seems like your plan didn’t succeed.”

A calm voice came from behind.

Zhou Hao turned his head slowly, seeing the serene youth behind him, with only minor ice fragments on his body, entirely unharmed.

“How is that possible?!”

Zhou Hao’s face was full of shock, unable to understand how Su Yuan did it.

Su Yuan, with a calm expression, said, “Just a little trick.”

The process was not complex.

When Zhou Hao used Ice Chi Shadow Transformation, Su Yuan used Flashback to return to his previous position, avoiding the explosive center of the Ice Element statue.

Though he was still slightly affected by the scattered Ice Element, it was nothing to Su Yuan who, at the edge, had activated Hardened Iron Armor.

Su Yuan used the dispersed Ice Element as cover to disrupt Zhou Hao’s senses, and with a 3-second casting gap needed to reactivate Instant Movement, he teleported and placed his saber at Zhou Hao’s throat.

Space Skills are mysterious and domineering.

Flashback’s trait seemed ordinary but provided an extra margin for error during Instant Movement’s casting gap, even altering the battle’s outcome when used properly.

“Crack, crack, crack…”

At this moment, cracks from bottom to top appeared on the two ice pillars sealing the Hellfire, which exploded moments later.

“Roar!!…”

The two Hellfires roared furiously, their eyes ablaze with green flames, releasing even more flames burning incessantly!

Seeing this, Zhou Hao knew that even without Su Yuan’s blade to his neck, the battle was already decided.

The Hellfires broke free even faster than he expected.

Looking at the silver-eyed youth before him, Zhou Hao sighed heavily, “I concede…”

Su Yuan nodded, lowered his Dragon Armor Saber, and dissipated its Space Power.

“Su Yuan, I didn’t expect you to be a warrior,” Zhou Hao retracted his blue-and-white longsword and smiled, “Although I lost this time, it was great to fight against you!

I hope to duel with you again!”

Su Yuan smiled, “Sure, I’m at the Demon Capital.

You can come anytime.”

“Alright, I’ll be going down now.” Zhou Hao nodded and then left the arena.

Only then did the audience return from their shock.

“This Su Yuan is really powerful!”

“Besides summoning two invincible Hellfires, his personal combat ability is also terrifying!”

“Among the visiting academies, I doubt anyone can match him.

He’s too strong!”

“…”

In the Demon Capital Academy area, Xia Yue and others stared at Su Yuan on stage, speechless for a long time.

Nobody expected that disregarding the Hellfires, Su Yuan would also possess such tremendous strength!

Moreover, from defeating Zhou Hao, Su Yuan didn’t seem to have shown many means.

Primarily Instant Movement and the Dark Space Power on his blade that slices through anything.

“What kind of monster is he!” Du Tao swallowed, feeling significantly impacted.

Su Yuan’s strength originally lay in his ability to summon Hellfire.

Losing to a Summoner wasn’t a big deal.

But now, the Summoner himself easily defeated top talents from various academies…

How can anyone stand a chance?!

The crowd was bewildered.

Only Xiang Dingqian gazed at Su Yuan from a distance, fiery passion in his eyes.

“Indeed, he is not normal!

The more abnormal he is, the more it makes sense!

I made the right decision!”

…

Meanwhile, Su Yuan moved again in the arena.

With the two Hellfires flanking him, he walked to the center.

Holding his longsword, Su Yuan glanced at the top experts from various academies like Ling Long and Fang Mingyu.

He said calmly,

“One by one is too slow…

Anyone else wanting to fight can come together!”
