Chapter 12

"Is it the Spirit Dynamic Realm?"

Around the stands, many people let out low exclamations of surprise at this moment, then looked at Tan Qingshan on the stage with astonished eyes. No wonder he dared to challenge Liu Yang; it turned out he had advanced to the Spirit Dynamic Realm.

"Amazing..." Su Ling was also full of amazement, looking at Tan Qingshan's back with some envy. Among the current Earth Rank, only Mu Chen, Liu Yang, and Mu Yuan had advanced to the Spirit Dynamic Realm. Now, Tan Qingshan was the fourth.

Mu Chen also nodded slightly. Tan Qingshan's ability to become the top person in the East Academy previously clearly indicated he had considerable talent. Most importantly, his family was not well-off, and all his achievements were the result of his hard work. Therefore, Mu Chen actually had some good feelings towards him. A person who earns pride through their own efforts deserves respect.

"Hehe, no wonder he has the nerve; it turns out he has broken through to the Spirit Dynamic Realm." Liu Yang was also slightly taken aback by Tan Qingshan's aura, then a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Tan Qingshan remained silent, but his gaze on Liu Yang gradually became sharper. Deep yellow spiritual energy swirled and rose around his arms, emitting a heavy wave.

Liu Yang stared at Tan Qingshan with a cold and gloomy gaze, extended his palm, and gently bent it: "Make your move, don't say I didn't give you a chance."

"Really arrogant!"

When Su Ling and the others saw Liu Yang's attitude, they were immediately angry and cursed.

Peng!

As Su Ling was angrily cursing, Tan Qingshan suddenly stomped his foot hard on the ground, and his figure shot out like a leopard. Deep yellow spiritual energy surged on his palms, mixed with a heavy force, and directly struck Liu Yang's chest.

Heng.

Liu Yang stared at the charging Tan Qingshan, let out a cold snort, and fire-red spiritual energy roared out from his arms. He did not dodge at all, clenched his fingers into a fist, and delivered a heavy punch to Tan Qingshan's palms.

Dong!

A low sound echoed, and a wave of energy swept out from around the two. Dust on the ground instantly stirred up, and both figures trembled. However, Liu Yang remained unmoved, while Tan Qingshan took a step back.

Tan Qingshan stabilized his body with a serious expression. The deep yellow spiritual energy on his arms became even more concentrated, and his entire arm turned deep yellow, like rock.

"Mountain Fist!"

Tan Qingshan charged out again. The speed of his arms became slightly slower, but the heavy force was like a rock falling, making many people around look more serious.

Peng! Peng! Peng!

Tan Qingshan's fists, like rocks, quickly and fiercely struck out, wave after wave of attacks sweeping towards Liu Yang. Liu Yang, however, had a cold expression, and fire-red spiritual energy, like flames, wrapped around his arms, forcefully blocking all of Tan Qingshan's attacks.

The energy waves formed by the collision of the two spiritual energies swept the stage clean, and even those nearby felt a pain on their faces.

"Tan Qingshan is really good, he can actually match Liu Yang!" Su Ling, watching the intense battle, could not help but exclaim with joy.

"Tan Qingshan has just entered the Spirit Dynamic Realm; it might be difficult for him to win Liu Yang." Tang Qian'er shook her head slightly. Although she also disliked Liu Yang, she had to admit that the guy had some skills.

"Tan Qingshan is likely practicing the Mountain Decision, which is a North Spirit Academy spiritual technique, but only a high-grade ordinary one. Liu Yang, on the other hand, might be practicing the Flame Sun Technique from their Liu Domain, which is a low-grade spiritual technique..." Mu Chen, staring at the scene, said.

"So, if we compare the strength of their spiritual energy, Liu Yang still has the upper hand. This situation probably won't last long."

Hearing this, Su Ling sighed in regret. He clearly hoped that Tan Qingshan would win. If that happened, Liu Yang probably wouldn't dare to be so arrogant anymore.

As they were talking, the battle on the stage became even more intense. Tan Qingshan's face turned slightly dark red, indicating that he had pushed his strength to the limit, and his attacks became increasingly fierce.

Shou!

A fist like a rock suddenly shot out, heavily striking Liu Yang's abdomen. However, just as the fist was about to touch Liu Yang's body, the latter moved his steps and strangely took a diagonal step, perfectly dodging Tan Qingshan's well-prepared fierce punch.

When this punch was dodged, Tan Qingshan felt a sense of unease. Then he saw the cold smile on Liu Yang's lips.

"Flame Sun Palm!"

Liu Yang's fingers formed a palm, and he suddenly slapped diagonally. Fire-red spiritual energy exploded like flames, releasing a scorching and powerful force that directly penetrated Tan Qingshan's defense and struck his chest.

Peng!

Fire-like spiritual energy exploded at the point of contact between Liu Yang's palm and Tan Qingshan's chest. The powerful force directly sent Tan Qingshan flying, and he landed heavily on the stage under the watchful eyes of many, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Hua.

Seeing the sudden change in the situation, the crowd around the stage burst into a wave of exclamations.

Tan Qingshan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, gritted his teeth in frustration. Liu Yang's spiritual energy was domineering and scorching, much stronger than his own.

Shua.

Liu Yang, with a cold gaze, stared at the somewhat disheveled Tan Qingshan. He had no intention of stopping. His toes touched the ground, and his figure shot out like an eagle, delivering a kick towards Tan Qingshan.

Tan Qingshan rolled to the side, narrowly avoiding Liu Yang's attack. His face turned somewhat ashen, clearly not expecting Liu Yang to pursue him so relentlessly even after gaining the upper hand.

However, he was also stubborn. Liu Yang's relentless pursuit made him even more unwilling to admit defeat. He just stared at Liu Yang with a fierce gaze.

"Quite a bit of pride, huh?"

Liu Yang, seeing this, shook his head with a cold smile, a hint of malice flashing in his eyes. His figure moved and appeared to the right of Tan Qingshan. His leg shadowed, mixed with scorching spiritual energy, and fiercely struck Tan Qingshan's chest.

Peng!

Tan Qingshan's body slid back over ten meters, and another mouthful of blood rose in his throat, but he swallowed it down.

"Damn, do you have any shame? He has already lost, and you are still attacking him!"

The many students from the East Academy, seeing Liu Yang's relentless pursuit, were also enraged and shouted in anger.

"This bastard!" Su Ling also cursed in anger.

Liu Yang, hearing the curses from the East Academy, became even more gloomy. Not only did he not stop, but he took a large step towards Tan Qingshan, delivering another kick to the disheveled Tan Qingshan as he retreated.

Peng!

A low sound echoed, but this time Tan Qingshan did not retreat. A slender figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and Liu Yang's fierce kick was firmly caught by a hand.

"Mu Chen?"

Tan Qingshan, looking at the familiar figure, was somewhat stunned.

"Are you okay?"

Mu Chen turned and looked at him, asking.

Tan Qingshan shook his head, his gaze on Liu Yang still filled with wolf-like ferocity.

"You can fight him to this extent just after advancing to the Spirit Dynamic Realm, which is already very strong. With more practice, catching up to him won't be difficult." Mu Chen smiled and said.

He knew that Tan Qingshan was outwardly silent but had a stubborn and proud personality, so he did not tell him to admit defeat. Instead, his words gave Tan Qingshan considerable affirmation.

"Thank you."

Tan Qingshan's heart eased a bit because of Mu Chen's words. He looked at the handsome face of the latter, filled with a warm and radiant smile, and said gratefully, "Leave this guy to you, but I will defeat him with my own hands in the future."

He paused, staring at Mu Chen, "You are stronger than me, so... please help us take back the top spot in the East Academy!" With that, he did not stay any longer, turning and leaping off the stage.

Mu Chen, watching Tan Qingshan leap off the stage, turned to look at Liu Yang with a gloomy gaze and said, "Next, let me be your opponent."

Liu Yang stared at Mu Chen, his lips curling into a sinister smile, his eyes filled with malice.

"I will treat you well!"

On the stage, the two faced off, and the atmosphere instantly became tense. The many students from both academies also focused their gazes on them. This was the strongest confrontation among the current Earth Rank of the North Spirit Academy!
