The contestants on the high platform and the students watching in the arena were all shocked by Qin Xin's powerful attack. Even Huo Sheng, who was wearing a blue Taoist robe, couldn't help but look over, a look of surprise on his face.
Qin Xin's attack, seemingly a simple forward thrust, was actually a result of the Nine Flames Battle Immortal Staff being swung rapidly. With the continuous enhancement of true energy, pale yellow flames rose from the staff, transforming into several figures. This made the staff's wind as sharp as a blade, swift and carrying a somewhat profound quality.
Heng Hua, who was knocked to the ground by a blow, was not injured, but his eyes were bloodshot and had a hint of ferocity in them. He gripped his long sword tightly, and as the red light flashed, the heat radiated outwards, making the surrounding students feel waves of heat. His eyes were filled with anger, as if he felt insulted by Qin Xin's seemingly casual strike.
"I'll fight you to the death!"
As Heng Hua shouted, his three true acupoints circulated rapidly around his body, and the long sword in his hand hummed before shooting out, pointing directly at Qin's head. This move was extremely ruthless, showing no intention of holding back.
Seeing Heng Hua's all-out attack, Qin Xin dared not be careless. At this moment, his right hand, strengthened by the Desolate God Battle Body, trembled, and the Nine Flames Battle Immortal Staff was held horizontally in front of him to block the long sword. However, the powerful true energy fluctuations contained in the long sword made him feel slightly uncomfortable.
"burst!"
Without any hesitation, Qin Xin unleashed the Crimson Flame Blade, infusing it with his spiritual power. Instantly, the pale yellow flame blade exploded.
Although Heng Hua had anticipated this and even used his True Qi Gauze Robe to block most of the damage, he did not expect that Qin Xin's strength was even greater than in their previous battles, and he began to lose confidence.
After the fire blade exploded, Qin Xin retreated. When he landed, he looked up and found that Heng Hua was faintly emitting blood energy. Even the three true acupoints around his body, which were radiating light, had turned blood red.
"You actually forced me to use this move! Today I will cripple you!"
Heng Hua's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared at Qin Xin with a somewhat ferocious expression.
The students watching Heng Hua's actions began to whisper among themselves, seemingly unaware that he had such a hidden trump card. If Qin Xin hadn't pushed him to the limit, he probably wouldn't have used it.
"Blood sacrifice to the sword! I never expected Dean Jia to have spread such a secret technique."
Seeing Heng Hua's appearance in the arena, Mo Fufen, the dean of the Beast Martial Arts Academy, smiled lightly.
Jia Yan ignored him, as if he had tacitly agreed, but kept his eyes fixed on the two fighting on the stage.
“Secret technique…”
Qin Xin frowned, sensing Heng Hua's powerful surge. With his internal blood and qi burning, his true qi robes billowed, and blood-qi currents flowed within them. Clearly, at this moment, Heng Hua's true qi was something he feared none, even against ordinary fifth-level Opening Qi Realm experts.
"Nine Nirvanas of the Heavenly Phoenix!"
Without any hesitation, Qin Xin activated the Martial Spirit runes on his Martial Spirit. Instantly, golden runes climbed up the Nine Flames Battle Immortal Staff, and a surge of battle intent suddenly erupted.
"Martial Spirit Mark? It seems this kid has quite a bit of talent."
Upon seeing Qin Xin's appearance, Huo Sheng's eyes, which had been slightly lowered, flashed with a hint of amazement, and he murmured to himself.
When the deans of the three academies heard Qin Xin being praised by Huo Sheng, they looked at the martial arts students in the arena again, their eyes filled with caution, as if they were all observing them.
As Qin Xin activated his Martial Spirit Pattern, his internal energy surged dramatically, and for a moment, his aura even surpassed that of Heng Hua.
"It seems this secret technique will have a significant impact on the body."
Qin Xin quickly noticed something amiss in Heng Hua Body; the secret technique seemed to require an enormous amount of blood energy.
With a light step, a silver light flashed beneath his feet, and Qin Xin's voice followed, before his figure vanished from the spot.
The instant Qin Xin disappeared, a figure shrouded in a veil of true energy flashed over like a ghost, followed by two metallic sounds.
The battle on the field was decided in an instant. The collision caused the fiery true energy fluctuations to overflow across the entire arena. If it weren't for the academy's deacons at the edge of the arena to neutralize these fiery true energy fluctuations, they might have directly set some of the surrounding buildings on fire.
"I hope the boss is alright!"
Looking at the flames sweeping across the arena, Jin Yuanbao on the high platform had some worry in his eyes.
"I didn't expect Heng Hua to be so well hidden. It won't be easy for the boss to win."
Shangguan Lingyan, standing beside Jin Yuanbao, looked at the situation on the arena with a somewhat bitter expression.
"Don't worry, your boss won."
Jiang Xinghai showed a hint of surprise on his face. Although his voice was calm, he frowned, as if he was very familiar with the secret technique that Heng Hua had used.
It's called a secret technique, but in reality, it involves sacrificing one's life essence to a martial spirit in order to gain greater strength, instantly boosting one's power by several levels. However, this has significant side effects and may even damage a martial artist's foundation, preventing them from making any further progress in their cultivation. Unless facing a life-or-death situation, no martial artist would be willing to use it.
As Jiang Xinghai's voice faded, the flames on the arena subsided, revealing a figure holding a long staff, his robes bearing some burn marks. Before him, a broken longsword lay scattered on the stone slabs of the arena, and a figure on the ground, his chest rising and falling slightly, his breath weak.
"So strong..." The onlookers were stunned for a moment, then burst into cheers. This powerful battle scene made their blood boil.
Of course, some were happy while others were sad. On the other hand, Lin Jinglei and the Sword Gang members had dark faces and were glaring angrily at Qin Xin on the arena. For a moment, no one paid any attention to Heng Hua, who was lying on the ground.
"Useless! People like this shouldn't stay in the Sword Gang!"
Seeing Heng Hua's defeat, Jia Yan looked displeased and glared at Lin Jinglei behind him, who immediately shivered.
"yes!"
Lin Jinglei dared not say more.
Deans Mo Fufen and Wei Ji exchanged a smile when they saw that Jia Yan was somewhat angry, and did not provoke him. As for Huo Sheng, he stared at Qin Xin with great interest, seemingly pondering something.
"Qin Xin has won this battle!"
After the results were announced, Heng Hua was carried off the stage, while Qin Xin took a Qi-restoring pill and slowly left the stage, heading towards the high platform.
Hearing Jia Yan pull out a bamboo stick again, Qin Xin's lips twitched slightly, because at that moment Lin Jinglei deliberately walked past him.
"You won't be so lucky in the next round!" a cold voice rang out.
"Since senior wants to offer his guidance, then junior will naturally accompany you to the end!" Qin Xin was not afraid and looked directly at Lin Jinglei, attracting many gazes to the two of them.
