The cheers for Cangmu Ling disappeared in an instant, and silence befell the square.

This fight was merely a friendly bout between military academies, was it necessary to let it continue at the cost of these two, both of whom were federal treasures? At this level of competition, once they started fighting it would often be difficult to stop, and even if they didn't fight to the death, it would still come at great expense.

Before the local government could react, Cangmu Ling took the initiative. Her body slightly swayed, and the wrist armor—pulled out from the Space Crystal—was instantly worn on her hand. With successive leaps, she swung her arm and directly struck at Feng Yi in the imposing manner of a tiger descending a mountain: "Huh! Martial God Strike."

True to her reputation as a quasi-Martial God, she threw a punch with a light grunt, exuding an aura as if she could demolish mountains and rivers. The intense pressure she emanated cut through the tumultuous air like a sharp knife, who could possibly withstand this pure and simple attack?

Facing this seemingly slow but inescapably direct punch, Feng Yi's deep eyes suddenly widened. If he couldn't dodge it, all he could do was take it head-on.

Smack!

He successfully blocked the attack, a whirlwind radiated from their center and spread far away... But, their touch was momentary, and in the very next instant, Feng Yi's body was sent flying by the latent force within the punch, crashing into the perimeter wall of the ring...

There was a loud crash, the wall collapsed, and Feng Yi was buried within.

Cangmu Ling didn't pursue, she knew this attack wouldn't seriously harm her opponent.

After Feng Yi was buried, there was seemingly no reaction. But just a few breaths later, before he could stand up, he swiftly waved his claw-like hand in the direction of Cangmu Ling, "Huh!" The turbulent battle momentum directly shattered the broken wall, and a torrent of dark energy surged towards Cangmu Ling.

Boom! Now it was Cangmu Ling's turn to fly. Unlike Feng Yi, there was nothing behind her to cushion the blow, she was directly blown back into the spectators' area of St. Calina.

The fighters close to Cangmu Ling could feel the pressure emanating out of her, it was absolutely terrifying. This overwhelming aura made it impossible for them to breathe, feeling just like a gust of wind rushing at them as they rode on a maglev train.

Neither of them had an advantage. Cangmu Ling attacked for the second time, trying to get close to Feng Yi. If he relied on the momentum of the storm, then she could use her close combat skills to finish the fight.

However, seeing Cangmu Ling trying to get close, Feng Yi was not frightened at all. In mid-jump, he swiftly executed the Falcon Three-Stage Kick.

This is a high-level military tactic, destructive yet controlled. In the hands of others, the move could have been easily countered, but with attack power at Feng Yi's level, even Cangmu Ling did not dare to take it head-on.

After all, while the Falcon Kick had impressive destructive power, the rigidity of its ending stance was its biggest weakness. It required significant physical resilience to transition from the Falcon Kick to other moves, making it a difficult technique to execute, even for a martial arts master.

Making the transition was not difficult for Feng Yi due to his exceptional resilience. As he landed, he quickly switched his move and transitioned into a swirling killing maneuver, stirring up a whirlwind around him.

Cangmu Ling had no choice but to guard against this force that could twist steel. She quickly retreated and waited for Feng Yi to return to position. As she saw her opening, Cangmu Ling once again jumped forward with a punch. Clash! Their weapons clashed...neither of them gained an advantage in the confrontation.

Redirecting her punch, Cangmu Ling targeted Feng Yi's throat. But Feng Yi was faster, he blocked it and counter-attacked, lunging towards Cangmu Ling's neck while forcefully thrusting his knee upwards, bringing with it gusts of fierce wind.

"Huh, Severing Wrist Slash." Cangmu Ling aimed at Feng Yi's wrist and brought down her hand. It looked like she was attempting to sever Feng Yi's wrist while simultaneously maneuvering to counter his move.

But Feng Yi wouldn't give her that chance. He quickly pulled back his hand and their lower bodies clashed, causing a muffled sound as dust rose from beneath their feet. Due to her inferior physical attributes, Cangmu Ling was forced back several steps by the knee strike…

Amid the rising dust, Feng Yi didn't stop. Just like a human battle tank, he pushed forward and charged at Cangmu Ling with an extreme speed.

Caught by this powerful collision, Cangmu Ling, now devoid of balance, uncontrollably flew backwards.

Feng Yi swung his military blade in an attempt to check Cangmu Ling's throat. But at this moment, five masked guards rushed into the ring. They were too fast, like five afterimages, seemingly attempting to prevent Feng Yi's dangerous move.

The faces of these five individuals were covered by golden veils. Ordinary people could only tell from their graceful figures that they were women, but beyond that, their identities remained unknown. However, their deceptive, beguiling appearances should not be underestimated. The higher-ups knew very well who they were; these were the Five-pointed Star guards of the Cangmu family. They had served the Cangmu family for generations and were highly proficient in various killing techniques, making them a terrifying force. Any of them could easily defeat Kuang Qi, a high-level Martial Artist.

However, they were dealing with Feng Yi. Before the five graceful forms had the chance to get close, a wave of stormy turbulent air mixed with dark power rushed over them. One after another, the five women were pushed away, not given a chance to even get close.

The fact was, even martial artists of this level couldn't break Feng Yi's full-force attack; there was absolutely no chance.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh... Their clothes were torn, their combative stance ripped open their bodies to display their pale skin, which was then dyed red with blood.

Nevertheless, even with the entrance of these individuals, Feng Yi's actions didn't change. However, due to the disrupted attack rhythm, his blade swing turned into a punch, which mercilessly landed on Cangmu Ling's defensive arm.

This punch too was imbued with hidden force. Nobody could perceive how many punches Feng Yi had thrown. An ordinary person would think it was one punch, someone with sharp eyesight could tell it was two, Zi Mou and Apophis thought it was five, but the strongest among them, Kuang Qi, believed it to be thirteen.

It could be confirmed that Cangmu Ling's attack method leaned towards the ninja-style of early years, while Feng Yi's was a blend of ancient Huaxia and modern military combat.

The impact sent Cangmu Ling crashing outside the ring, resembling a puppet whose strings had been cut. She slowly got up and rigidly clutched the disordered clothing at her chest. Everyone immediately understood why she did so, the reason was not hard to guess, Cangmu Ling's clothes had probably been torn too. Under the tumultuous influence of the stormy air, even she could only defend her skin.

There was no doubt that the winner of this fight was Feng Yi. In fact, the fight ended when the five personal guards jumped into the ring—no, it ended even earlier. In fact, Cangmu Ling had been knocked out of the fighting ring before that. It's just that everyone had momentarily forgotten about this boundary rule.

Cangmu Ling conceded gracefully, "I lost."

Feng Yi had a natural dislike for these self-righteous people of ancient Eastern bloodline. Did his previous 13 attacks prove inconclusive, oh well. He would not deliberately make fun of them, he simply shook his head: "The so-called Martial God, heh."

This light remark sounded soft, yet was just audible enough, presumably, what he didn't say might have been nothing special.

For no reason at all, Cangmu Ling's body seemed to shudder...
