Lai Yun didn't immediately make a move. She continually released her spirit Qi, exposing her current Spirit Cultivation realm.

"5th stage of the Spirit Core realm. It seems she recently made another breakthrough," one girl said.

Lai Yun continued to release her Qi until there was an abundant amount of it surrounding herself and her clones.

In the next moment, her brows began to wrinkle as her concentration deepened, then all the Qi she released began to quickly gather into her right hand.

Xiao Fang knew that she was preparing something, but he didn't know what.

Since he was blind growing up, he naturally developed the sense to detect Qi all around him, even if it was faint. However, it wasn't very useful in battle, because he could only vaguely guess the general location of the Qi when it was near him.

Unless he used his [ Spirit Perception ] technique, it would be difficult to properly fight against her. However, he knew that his eyes were still recovering after using it for so long during the lecture. So, he decided against it for now.

Lai Yun's spirit Qi was finally beginning to take shape.

For the girls who weren't new to the Phoenix-Class, they immediately recognized what it was.

"Illusory Silver Whip!" A few of the girls said in astonishment.

Although the Black Paradise sect had many spirit weapon techniques, the [ Illusory Whip of a 1000 Transformations ] was the only one that was a Divine Spirit realm technique.

...

"Lai Yun is amazing. She should have no problem making it into the 4th Division this year."

"Isn't that just overkill? Why is she using such a strong weapon technique against him?"

"Don't you remember how arrogantly he was acting earlier? I bet she wants to teach him a lesson. How else would he know how vast the gap is between Heaven and Earth?"

The other girls all seemed to agree with the one commentating over the fight.

...

Xiao Fang could hear the girls talking so he learned a bit about the technique Lai Yun was using. Still, he didn't think he needed to worry.

However, even though his cultivation was higher than hers, he couldn't use any of his secret Cultivation Methods or Spirit Attribute against her. Furthermore, since she was using the [ Illusory Body ] Method, he knew that her overall battle power would increase by another realm. Thinking about it like this made Xiao Fang realize that it wasn't going to be as easy as he thought.

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, Lai Yun and her clones began to move.

Since Xiao Fang was wearing a blindfold, he could only sense her real body coming at him, what he could only vaguely detect was that she and her clones were holding a spirit weapon.

When he was only 25 meters away from her, she used her whip. Sensing the motion of her arm, it wasn't difficult to predict the trajectory of the attack, so he ran towards her at a moderate speed then comfortably jumped over the horizontal strike as if it were a hurdle. However, before he could touch the ground, the hairs on the back of his neck suddenly rose up; It was his Swordsman's instincts.

There was no way to know the motion of her clone's arms so it was impossible for him to know where it was coming from. Without even a fraction of a second to think about it, he almost instinctively used his visual technique.

[ Spirit Perception ]

!!!

Suddenly, Xiao Fang felt a sharp pain in his eyes. The backlash was so strong, he didn't even attempt to dodge the incoming whip.

In the next moment he felt a whip wrapping around his body before being thrown across the room.

Boom!!!

Xiao Fang was pulled and sent flying across the room, only stopping when he viciously collided against the wall.

His head was still ringing from the backlash, so it took him a while to even realize what was happening. He eventually found himself at the center of a crater high up in the wall with the whip still tied tightly around his body.

The whip wasn't strong enough to keep him restrained, but before he could break out of it, a flurry of whip strikes came his way.

Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!...

Each strike hurt Xiao Fang quite a bit as it pushed him deeper into the wall till nobody could see him. Finally, she used the whip that was still tightly wrapped around him to pull him out of the hole and throw him to the ground.

"Eat shit!" She yelled as she tried to pull him out, but then she noticed that her whip was broken.

In the moment of confusion, Xiao Fang used a [ Solid Clone ].

Before she could turn around to look back up at the hole in the wall, she saw him standing on the ground just under it.

"No way," one girl in the crowd said in disbelief.

When the others eventually saw Xiao Fang too, they also shared her disbelief. He was completely fine, and there wasn't even a scratch on him.

...

"How is that possible!?"

"I don't understand. Didn't he get hit? How could there not even be a speck of dust on him?"

Su Lingxi couldn't even answer that herself, but then she realized something was a bit too strange.

'Could it be a clone?' She thought. 'That would mean...'

Su Lingxi couldn't see him, but she also couldn't tell how deep the hole went.

Bai Fan knew he was strong, but she also didn't believe it was possible to escape such a violent barrage of whips unscathed.

Zhao Pan simply frowned. That attack was definitely something she didn't think she could avoid or endure. So, the only thought running through her mind was, 'How?'

...

Meanwhile, Xiao Fang's real body was still up there in that hole, and he was pretty badly hurt. He wiped the blood from the corner of his lips then rubbed his 2 fingers together.

'If my Li Lian heard that a disciple here was able to make me bleed, I wonder if she would believe it,' he smirked at the thought.

He didn't know why he was thinking about Li Lian at a time like this, but now that he was, he began to wonder how she was doing, and if she was able to make any breakthroughs since the last time he saw her.

Xiao Fang eventually took out a healing-regeneration pill from his spatial ring then ate it as he walked to the edge of the hole while under [ Stealth ]. He then lifted his blindfold up, then looked down at his classmates in all their colours.

'There's quite a few gems amongst them. It's a shame that they hate my guts. Well, for now anyway...'

He sat down then noticed Bai Fan within the crowd. He couldn't see it before, but looking at her face now, he could tell that she had put on a bit of makeup. She was already a very beautiful woman, arguably even more so than Xun Wei, but seeing her the way she was now made her comparable to Li Lian.

'Bai Fan, Daughter of Supreme Elder Bai. Pursuing someone like her would be daring, even for me,' he thought.

What Xiao Fang didn't know was that Supreme Elder Bai was known to have a bit of an anger problem as well.

As attractive as Bai Fan was, Xiao Fang eventually looked away. He had fun stretching his arms and legs after such a long lecture, but he knew this fight had gone on for long enough.

'It's about time I end this.'
