“Alan’s shield techniques have definitely reached the fourth level.” Xu Jingming unleashed his spearmanship, one move after another, but all were futile against that round shield. Not only were they easily blocked, but the force was also borrowed against him.

Xu Jingming felt as if he were trapped in a siege of countless circles! Layers upon layers, rendering him helpless and unable to break through.

“No wonder he has a perfect record and even defeated Fang Yu. Although Fang Yu is physically strong, his forceful attacks… simply can’t break through a fourth-level shield technique. Shield techniques alone can completely tear apart Fang Yu’s halberd techniques, easily killing him.” Xu Jingming mused, still feeling quite relaxed.

After all, his evolution method had already reached the transcendent level!

At the transcendent level, every aspect of his body—strength, speed, agility, resilience, neural response, etc.—completely surpassed his opponent. Thus, he had to restrain himself, wanting to defeat the enemy with skill.

This was also to hone his own Starry Sky Spear Technique! Although some moves of the Starry Sky Spear Technique could exhibit fourth-level power, there were still parts that hadn’t broken through, so he naturally couldn’t fully master it.

“This Xia country’s Xu Jingming is much stronger than the previous Fang Yu,” Alan Emelianenko realized as well. “My shield keeps disrupting his spear techniques, but he’s also defending against my attacks.”

“This Xu Jingming… seems to be on the defensive, but his every move is incredibly solid, like a mountain, no, like a rolling star!” Alan Emelianenko could sense Xu Jingming’s terrifying strength.

Techniques infused with mental will could vaguely sense each other.

Xu Jingming’s moves were solid, seemingly restrained, but in reality, like a star slowly rolling, hard to resist.

“My saber techniques are still a bit weak. If my saber techniques reach the fourth level, I believe I can cleave through this rolling star.” Alan Emelianenko also felt immense pressure.

Indeed, Xu Jingming’s Starry Sky Spear Technique was only half-finished. The defensive moves had already broken through, but most of the offensive moves hadn’t. Perhaps ‘Heart Like the Celestial Stars’ was better suited for defense.

But a celestial star in motion was unstoppable. It also possessed an extremely powerful offensive side, but Xu Jingming hadn’t truly integrated it into his spear technique.

“Bang, bang, bang…”

Alan Emelianenko and Xu Jingming engaged in a fierce battle, their figures blurred, weapons clashing, fighting for several minutes and exchanging hundreds of moves.

This scene amazed audiences worldwide.

Fighting for several minutes?

“The Xia country’s Xu Jingming can actually fight Alan for so long?”

“During the Fire Seed Cup, Xu Jingming was stronger than Fang Yu. More than a month has passed, and Xu Jingming is even better.”

“This battle… it’s impossible to determine who will win or lose.”

“Their strength is too close; the fight is too intense.”

Viewers from around the world watched excitedly.

Suddenly—

“Bang!”

Accompanied by a loud bang.

Alan Emelianenko flew backward like a cannonball, crashing into the city wall before landing with blood at the corner of his mouth. This scene stunned audiences worldwide. What happened? How was Alan suddenly sent flying?

“Alan, if this is all you’ve got, then this battle should end,” Xu Jingming, in his dark-red armor, said calmly, no longer wanting to continue the fight.

He had figured out all of Alan’s combat moves. They had indeed stimulated the improvement of his Starry Sky Spear Technique, but only to that extent.

“End?” Alan Emelianenko stared at Xu Jingming. “Shield techniques are good for defense; it won’t be easy to defeat me.”

At that moment, Alan Emelianenko was completely focused on defense.

“Then I’ll have to give it a try.”

Boom!

Xu Jingming’s speed clearly increased significantly, his dark-red afterimage rushing straight at Alan Emelianenko. A spear shadow streaked across the sky and came crashing down.

“Whoosh.” Alan moved his feet, his left-hand shield colliding with Xu Jingming’s spear shadow. The power of the spear shadow was much stronger than before, and even with Alan’s shield deflecting the force, he couldn’t help but retreat continuously.

The spear shadow then turned, as if swirling out of the water, and attacked.

“Clang.” Alan, while retreating, blocked the attack with his shield again, his whole body flying backward with the momentum.

Swoosh.

Xu Jingming leaped forward and followed up with another attack, the spear shadow chasing after him.

“Bang.” The round shield in Alan’s hand blocked it once more. As he gave up on offense and focused entirely on defense, he was constantly forced back by Xu Jingming’s attacks, but he defended perfectly.

“Xu Jingming, are you toying with me?” Alan roared angrily.

Xu Jingming paused slightly.

“You fought hundreds of moves with me earlier, just to practice? And now you still refuse to show your true strength? Are you trying to humiliate me!” Alan glared at Xu Jingming. “Use your true strength to defeat me!”

…

Global livestream rooms went wild.

When Xu Jingming unleashed his power and suppressed Alan Emelianenko, countries were in disbelief. The people of Russia stopped shouting “Ura” and stared blankly at the fight. The people of Xia country were equally stunned.

Xu Jingming could suppress Alan Emelianenko? The surprise was too sudden; the people of Xia country were bewildered.

But at that moment, Alan’s words truly ignited the emotions of audiences worldwide.

“What, this isn’t the Xia country’s Xu Jingming’s true strength?” The host of the India livestream room was stunned. “Just how strong is this Xia country’s Xu Jingming?”

“Alan Emelianenko, what did he say? Did I hear wrong?” The two hosts from Japan couldn’t believe it.

In the official Xia country livestream room, countless people heard the automatically synchronized sound from the virtual world. Alan Emelianenko’s words filled them with surprise, joy, disbelief, and anticipation!

Li Miaomiao was in the stands, watching the scene, her eyes full of expectation. “Jingming, go for it!”

“Captain!” Wang Yi, Yang Qingshuo, Liu Chongyuan, and Heng Fang were also watching.

…

On the ancient battlefield.

Xu Jingming looked at the angry Alan Emelianenko before him.

“Show my true strength?” Xu Jingming looked at him.

With a transcendent-level body and the Rainbow Spear Technique! Alan Emelianenko wouldn’t be able to withstand a single move.

“Let’s end this.”

At that moment, Xu Jingming truly unleashed the full power and speed of his transcendent-level body. He was still using the Starry Sky Spear Technique! Because… there was really no need to use the Rainbow Spear Technique.

“He’s finally using his real strength?” Alan Emelianenko, at his level, had long sensed Xu Jingming’s restraint. Now, as Xu Jingming unleashed his power, the suffocating aura made Alan excited instead.

Boom!

The dark-red figure was incredibly fast, exceeding a hundred meters per second.

“Rumble~~~” A spear shadow came crashing down, like a rolling star crushing everything!

Alan Emelianenko’s eyes burned with passion. Instead of retreating, he advanced, charging forward with his shield.

The spear shadow carried a strange rotational force, coupled with Xu Jingming’s terrifying physical strength. Upon contact, it sent Alan Emelianenko’s shield flying. The spear shadow swept across Alan’s body, causing his body to turn into a phantom and disappear.

With one spear strike, Alan Emelianenko was reduced to nothingness.

Xu Jingming stood there calmly, holding his spear.

Not everyone was worthy of making him use the Rainbow Spear Technique! If the Starry Sky Spear Technique couldn’t defeat them, then he would use the Rainbow Spear Technique! Although Alan was strong, with his transcendent-level body fully unleashed, the Starry Sky Spear Technique easily crushed him.

“Looking at the entire world, how many are worthy of making me use the Rainbow Spear Technique?” Xu Jingming wondered.

“Whoosh.”

Suddenly, an arrow shot from behind. Xu Jingming’s mental awareness was extremely sharp, detecting the vibration in the air. He turned his head and saw an arrow shot by the Russian archer. That archer must have just broken through to the third level and was far inferior to Yi-jie.

In terms of perception, Xu Jingming was much stronger than Lei Yunfang during the Fire Seed Cup. Even at a distance of twenty meters, a newly-advanced third-level archer wouldn’t be able to hit him, no matter how fast he fired.

“Shooting a cold arrow?” Xu Jingming reached out and grabbed the arrow traveling at twice the speed of sound. The shaft shattered, and Xu Jingming held the arrowhead in his hand, the arrowhead twisted and deformed.

With a casual flick.

The arrowhead flew back at an even higher speed! With Xu Jingming’s current control over his body, even a casually flicked arrowhead was incredibly precise. The terrifying speed meant that the archer didn’t have time to dodge and was pierced through the head, vanishing into thin air.

“Go,” Panda Zhang Qian roared. “Take care of them, Jingming. Leave these small fry to us.”

“Great God Xu, you don’t need to deal with these small fry,” the other three Xia country teammates shouted, charging towards the remaining Russian teammates. Previously, everyone had been concentrating on watching the battle, not wanting to miss a moment, so they hadn’t acted.

Now, Panda Zhang Qian and the other Xia country experts were fighting the remaining three Russian teammates.

Xu Jingming didn’t make a move, only watching from the side.

…

The livestream rooms in Xia country, Russia, India, Japan, the White Eagle Federation, New Korea, and other countries were all focused on Xu Jingming standing on the ancient battlefield. The other seven people fighting were just background noise; no one cared about them.
