X-Dragon Era

Xin Yun silently observed as the referee of the current challenge match started to announce the rules. The clear voice echoed throughout the valley, "Both parties, pay attention. The time limit for this match is ten minutes. Within these ten minutes, if the challenger fails to defeat the opponent, it will be considered a loss.

If the match ends in a draw, or the challenged still has the ability to fight, then the challenger will be deemed the loser!"

"Hiss…" Despite already knowing the rule, everyone still felt surprised upon hearing the referee's announcement. Under such rules, unless one's strength was far superior to the opponent's, it would be impossible to achieve victory.

Under these circumstances, unless Po Kong could completely defeat his opponent within ten minutes, the moment the time was up, as long as Lan Ya still had the capacity to fight, Po Kong would have lost. This condition was really too harsh.

However, Xin Yun knew that for Po Kong this wouldn't be an issue. Although Lan Ya was powerful and excellent, compared to Po Kong, the gap was just too wide. If they indeed fought, Po Kong could definitely end the match within a few seconds.

Although there was a gap of nine stars between the two, first of all… Po Kong used a Ninth Grade Dragon Creation Stone, while Lan Ya only used a Seventh Grade Dragon Creation Stone. Secondly… the battle wasn't truly one-on-one; it should be considered two against one.

Po Kong's strength wasn't just because the Emperor Sword Dragon was indeed powerful. The iron chain wrapped around the Sword Dragon was the real killer, as well as the foundation of Po Kong's strength!

That iron chain, although it looked like iron, wasn't actually iron but a kind of extremely rare dragon—a Chain Dragon! This dragon was very powerful, with its most significant characteristic being the eighty-one Dragon Balls condensed within its body.

If it were just that, it would have been fine, but under the Break the Sky Clan's Cultivation Secret Technique, merging the Chain Dragon with the Emperor Sword Dragon into one entity, Po Kong, thus, would have near-infinite energy. Each attack only needed a bit of energy to initiate, and the Chain Dragon would automatically segment out energy to boost the attacks.

Once the Chain Dragon and the Emperor Sword Dragon fused into one, possessing nearly limitless energy, the style of attack still followed the Emperor Sword Dragon's patterns, with the Emperor Sword Dragon leading and the Chain Dragon as the main force. And that Chain Dragon had the same strength as Po Kong himself.

To merge the Chain Dragon with the Emperor Sword Dragon, one first had to obtain a Chain Dragon Egg. Then, during the condensation of Dragon Balls, the Chain Dragon Egg would be integrated into the surface of the Dragon Balls.

This secret method was only known to the Po Kong Clan, and only the direct descendants who were super geniuses had access to it—not for any other reason but because the Chain Dragon was too rare.

The Chain Dragon's attacks were relatively simple, consisting of whipping and entwining, it didn't even have Dragon Breath. But its features were the fast absorption of energy, rapid energy recovery, and the ability to store a great amount of energy within its body. Each chain link could condense a Dragon Ball, allowing it to condense a total of ninety-nine Dragon Balls.

Its realm was the same as Po Kong's own. When the Chain Dragon and the Emperor Sword Dragon merge into one, in addition to Po Kong's own energy, there would be eighty-one same-grade Dragon Balls' energy at his disposal, which laid the foundation for his later status as the number one in the world.

Of course, with so many Dragon Balls, cultivation was very challenging. If it had been an ordinary person, even a breakthrough to the bronze level would be difficult. But Po Kong was the future head of the world's number one ranked clan; he had anything he wanted. With the accumulation of a significant amount of Dragon Crystals, his strength improved rapidly.

Possessing a total of 82 Dragon Balls, his cultivation speed was even faster than normal people's, which showed that their clan must have related Cultivation Secret Techniques.

Putting aside Xin Yun's contemplations, on the other side… the referee finally finished announcing all the rules, and the Combat Dragon Academy's dean slowly stood up, declaring in a deep voice, "I announce, Combat Dragon Academy's main seat challenge match, now... begins!"

With the dean's command, instantaneously… Lan Ya immediately sprung into action. The Ice Blue Angel spread her wings, and her figure soared upwards, dominating from on high. With both hands clasped in front of her chest, dazzling blue light radiated out from between her hands.

"Diamond Starfall!" Accompanied by Lan Ya's sharp cry, in an instant… countless blue light spots started to fall from the sky. As they drew closer, the blue spots condensed into diamond-shaped ice spikes, roaring down like blue fangs.

"Hiss…" Seeing this, all of the spectators drew in a breath of cold air. Truly befitting the power of a two-star crystal level, this single move demonstrated her strength.

Not only were there many diamond-shaped ice spikes, but they were also highly concentrated, covering a vast area. At a glance, it seemed as if the sky was completely obscured, with potentially millions of them. Such a scale of attack could only be executed by one with crystal level strength or higher.

Hovering mid-air, the Ice Blue Angel stayed poised, hands clasped in front of her chest in a prayer-like gesture. The six ice wings on her back slowly fluttered, breathtaking and majestic. Around her, the endless Diamond Starfall roared downwards.

Facing the overwhelming barrage of Diamond Starfall, Po Kong coldly curled the corner of his mouth. Standing tall against the wind, he neither dodged nor defended, letting the cold breeze play with his black robe and his long silver hair.

Under everyone's gaze, the countless Diamond Starfalls finally descended right above Po Kong. Facing the sky-filled Diamond Starfall, Po Kong let out a cold laugh, casually extended his right hand, and with a gentle push, a faintly dark shield appeared around his body.

"Ding ding ding…" The next moment… to the astonishment of all onlookers, Po Kong stood there proudly at the end of the sword hilt, reaching forward with his right hand, and projecting a perfectly round shield about two meters in diameter, intercepting all the Diamond Impacts.
