Chapter 18

Here is the second update. After you finish reading, don't forget to bookmark and recommend it. Thank you! Thank you!

Xu Ziyi focused her aura in one direction, directly pressing towards Xu Hualing, without spreading her aura out. Therefore, only Xu Hualing felt the heavy pressure, while the others did not sense the twelfth-layer aura of the Later Heaven stage.

"This... This isn't the aura of the seventh layer of the Later Heaven stage!"

Xu Hualing was greatly alarmed, her aura suppressed by Xu Ziyi's combat intent, falling two layers, and she could only exert six layers of her cultivation. In this situation, how could she be a match for Xu Ziyi?

Taking advantage of Xu Hualing's weakened aura, Xu Ziyi stomped her feet and shot forward like an arrow. Water patterns rippled on her fists, bringing a whistling wind as she punched towards Xu Hualing.

Although Xu Hualing's combat intent was weakened, her pride made her unwilling to retreat. A ninth-layer Later Heaven cultivator retreating or dodging in front of a seventh-layer Later Heaven cultivator would lose all face in the world.

Gritting her teeth, Xu Hualing swung her fist to meet Xu Ziyi's punch.

"Bang!"

The two fists collided, and both figures retreated. However, Xu Ziyi retreated five steps, while Xu Hualing only retreated one step.

Seeing Xu Ziyi retreat four steps more than herself, Xu Hualing felt a moment of joy, but then she saw Xu Ziyi's right foot stomp the ground, and her figure charged forward like a galloping horse, delivering a powerful punch. Xu Hualing's eyes widened, and she thought:

"Do I fear you?"

She swung her fist to meet Xu Ziyi's punch.

"Bang!"

Another sound, and both retreated again. Xu Ziyi still retreated five steps, while Xu Hualing retreated one step.

At this moment, the teachers on the balcony also ran down. They were about to stop Xu Ziyi and Xu Hualing, but they saw Xu Ziyi charge towards Xu Hualing again, delivering a fierce punch. The teachers were greatly surprised. Could this little girl dare to attack again?

However, the scene before them almost made their eyes fall out. Not only did Xu Ziyi take the initiative to attack, but she continued to attack, as if she had an inexhaustible supply of true qi.

"Bang! Bang~!"

Continuous punches, continuous retreats. Xu Hualing's true qi rapidly depleted. This hard-hitting, no-trick fighting style made her true qi deplete even more.

Xu Hualing's true qi naturally could not compare to Xu Ziyi's. After a hurried twenty or so exchanges, the difference between the two became apparent.

Xu Hualing retreated one step, Xu Ziyi retreated five steps.

After another twenty or so moves, Xu Hualing retreated one step, Xu Ziyi retreated four steps.

After another ten or so moves, Xu Hualing retreated one step, Xu Ziyi retreated three steps.

After another ten or so moves, Xu Hualing retreated one step, Xu Ziyi retreated two steps.

After another ten or so moves, Xu Hualing retreated one step, Xu Ziyi also retreated one step.

Then, in the shocked gaze of the teachers and the cheers of the new disciples, Xu Ziyi fought more bravely, delivering punch after punch. Her right fist had not retracted when her left fist was already out. Her fists alternated, each punch faster than the last, like waves, each wave higher than the last, gradually accumulating power, and finally struck Xu Hualing with a thunderous impact.

At this moment, Xu Hualing's true qi was almost depleted. How could she withstand Xu Ziyi's powerful strike?

"Spit~"

A mouthful of blood spurted out, and she staggered back. Finally, she could not hold on, and another mouthful of blood spurted out. Her body softened, and she fell to the ground.

The entire square outside the hall fell silent, even the birds and insects stopped chirping, as if intimidated by Xu Ziyi's aura. The senior disciples were stunned, completely speechless, and even the teachers stared at Xu Ziyi in the arena with wide, shocked eyes. Only the new disciples, after a brief silence, suddenly erupted like a volcano, all jumping up from the ground, screaming their lungs out:

"Yay~"

"Win! Win!"

"Sister Ziyi won!!"

"Leader Ziyi won!"

Xu Ziyi did not cheer. She only wanted to avoid trouble and show the senior disciples her strength. She only wanted a quiet environment to cultivate, so she did not cheer or further provoke the senior disciples. She did not want to provoke the anger of the crowd. If she did, even if she were made of iron, how many nails could she crush?

Therefore, Xu Ziyi only cast a cold glance at the senior disciples and slowly walked forward.

Step by step, she approached the senior disciples, with the thirty or so new disciples excitedly following behind. Soon, Xu Ziyi reached the senior disciples. This time, no one came out, not even the ninth-layer Later Heaven disciples.

Whoever was foolish would come out!

Clearly, Xu Ziyi had consecutively defeated several senior disciples, including eighth-layer and ninth-layer Later Heaven cultivators. It seemed that Xu Ziyi had not consumed much of her true qi. Although they did not believe it, no one was willing to be the one to step forward. Besides, the teachers were standing right in front of them. Although the teachers had not interfered with their actions, it did not mean they could do such things in front of the teachers. Doing so behind the teachers' backs was one thing, but doing it in front of them was disrespectful. If they provoked the teachers' anger, they would only be asking for trouble.

Therefore, when Xu Ziyi approached the senior disciples, even though they were unwilling, they had to step aside, clearing the path. Xu Ziyi steadily walked through the senior disciples, moving quietly and steadily, as if strolling in a garden. The new disciples followed closely behind, and the senior disciples, who did not dare to provoke Xu Ziyi, cast fierce glares at the new disciples behind her.

The new disciples felt immense pressure, keeping their heads down and closely following Xu Ziyi.

When they finally walked out of the senior disciples' encirclement, the new disciples collectively exhaled, and the air was filled with a synchronized:

"Phew~"

The senior disciples glared at Xu Ziyi's back, then glanced at the teachers, and quickly dispersed to report to their gang leader.

The teachers also exchanged glances and turned to walk back to the pavilion.

Seeing the teachers and senior disciples disperse, the new disciples could no longer contain their excitement. They ran towards Xu Ziyi, lifted her up, and threw her into the air while cheering. Xu Ziyi understood their excitement and did not want to dampen their spirits, so she allowed them to keep throwing her into the air. After a while, the new disciples carried Xu Ziyi, cheering and running towards the new disciples' living quarters.
