"You?"
Instructor Ouyang looked at Lu Fan, "Even if you awakened the Tai Xu Sword, what can you do? In front of true powerhouses, everything is like an ant!"
"How will you know without trying!"
Lu Fan's expression was indifferent, Tai Xu Sword intent circled his body, carrying an supreme aura. Now that he had awakened the Tai Xu Sword, his overall combat power had ascended a level. Even against a Battle Emperor, Lu Fan wanted to test his might.
"I'll go with you!"
Lin Ke stood up, holding the Ice Sword in his hand, and came to Lu Fan's side. Instructor Ouyang was powerful, and relying on Lu Fan alone might be insufficient. With his assistance, they might stand a chance.
"Even if you two join forces, what can you do to me!"
Instructor Ouyang laughed, his disdain evident. As a Battle Emperor, he was a top-tier combatant. These people were like ants in his eyes, and he would not take them seriously.
"Xiao Fan, his strength is formidable, far from ordinary!"
Lin Ke said softly, "You must be careful!"
"Don't worry, with the Tai Xu Sword in hand, I will have the power to fight!"
Lu Fan said solemnly, "With our combined efforts, we can surely suppress him!"
Lin Ke nodded slightly, and the Ice Sword in his hand shot out instantly, carrying a formidable aura. Wherever it passed, it brought forth a thousand miles of ice.
The onlookers retreated rapidly, knowing that a momentous battle was about to unfold.
"Seeking death!"
Instructor Ouyang's expression turned cold as he strode towards Lin Ke, his aura surging. As a Battle Emperor, why would he retreat?
Boom...
With a thunderous sound, Lin Ke was sent flying back, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth. In the face of a true Battle Emperor, he was still struggling to resist, even with the protection of the Ice Sword.
Seeing Lin Ke in a precarious situation, Lu Fan also made his move, the Tai Xu Sword intent surging from his hand, carrying an supreme momentum.
Instructor Ouyang's expression was icy, and he did not dodge, striding directly towards Lu Fan. Even with the Tai Xu Sword, he remained unafraid. A Battle Emperor was not someone to be trifled with.
"Tai Xu Sword Intent!"
Lu Fan shouted, soaring into the sky, his formidable sword intent accompanied by an ancient aura. Even within the Dragon Capital, powerful sword intent was palpable.
"What powerful sword intent!"
The Great Elder was shocked, "Is this the might of the Tai Xu Sword?"
"As expected of an ancient artifact!"
The other elders were astounded. To possess such power was truly awe-inspiring.
Alas, Lu Fan was facing a Battle Emperor. Otherwise, within the Dragon Country, who could contend with Lu Fan?
Instructor Ouyang dared not be careless. Although he was a Battle Emperor, the aura displayed by Lu Fan had deeply shaken him, even instilling a sense of apprehension.
Boom...
Another deafening roar echoed, and Instructor Ouyang was forced back, blood also seeping from his arm.
Lu Fan, too, suffered a severe blow, retreating rapidly with blood trickling from his lips. Even with the Tai Xu Sword in hand, he found himself somewhat outmatched against a Battle Emperor.
"Xiao Fan!"
Lin Ke cried out, his worry evident.
"It's nothing!"
Lu Fan waved his hand, gripping the Tai Xu Sword tightly, his eyes glinting with coldness. "I truly did not expect that even a mere instructor in Cang Long Academy would possess such strength!"
"Nor did I expect!"
Instructor Ouyang said coldly, "However, a mere Battle Emperor, to actually injure me!"
"With the Tai Xu Sword in hand, let alone injuring you, I might even be able to keep you here today!"
"What audacious words!"
Instructor Ouyang's aura surged, his displeasure palpable. As a Battle Emperor, when had he ever endured such an insult?
The elders present also showed looks of astonishment. They had not anticipated Lu Fan's arrogance, treating Instructor Ouyang with such disdain. This was a Battle Emperor, and under normal circumstances, his defeat today seemed inevitable.
"To not even regard a Battle Emperor with respect, what kind of methods does he possess!"
"Who can say? Battle Emperors are such formidable existences, yet he can still contend with them. He truly has some skills!"
From the shadows of the Dragon Capital, many experts from ancient sects spoke out, their eyes filled with surprise and even confusion. In their eyes, Lu Fan was still just a Battle Emperor, how could he contend with a Battle Emperor?
However, Lu Fan had indeed injured Instructor Ouyang just now, which made everything seem plausible.
"With your arrogance, if I don't deal with you today, won't my reputation suffer!"
Instructor Ouyang sneered, a dark energy surging around him, imbued with killing intent.
"You must be careful."
Long Yi quickly warned, "He is about to unleash his full power. If anything goes slightly wrong, you will surely meet your end!"
"I want to see if he truly has that capability!"
Lu Fan also charged into the sky with the Tai Xu Sword, his eyes gleaming with sharp light, his expression quite displeased.
Witnessing this scene, the crowd became instantly excited. They knew that this battle was of great importance. If Lu Fan lost, the Tai Xu Sword would fall into Instructor Ouyang's hands.
If Lu Fan won, the future would likely be far from peaceful, as Cang Long Academy was not to be trifled with.
A ferocious tiger surged behind Instructor Ouyang as he charged towards Lu Fan, no one daring to block his path, his aura overwhelming.
Gazing at the scene before him, Lu Fan's sword intent blazed. Within the Tai Xu Sword intent, a phantom of a true dragon coiled around the Tai Xu Sword, accompanied by the sound of dragon roars, making it appear particularly fearsome.
One aura was powerful and seemingly unparalleled, while the other was imbued with ancient power, causing one to tremble.
The two figures collided, unleashing boundless power. The sky above the Dragon Capital was filled with a colossal beam of light, radiating an immense aura that sent shivers down one's spine.
Apart from Instructor Ouyang, Lu Fan was also exerting his full strength, his gaze solemn. He understood that if he could not defeat Instructor Ouyang in this battle, it would lead to unforeseen troubles.
Seeing the two sides locked in a seemingly equal confrontation, Lin Ke did not hesitate. He soared into the sky, his aura immense, the sword in his hand surging forth, captivating all.
"Thousand Miles of Ice!"
Lin Ke shouted, unleashing an intangible momentum. Wherever it passed, an icy chill permeated, and even the spring water within the Dragon Spring instantly transformed into glaciers, evoking a sense of profound cold.
Instructor Ouyang, fully engaged in countering the Tai Xu Sword intent, felt a chill from his back, his face instantly turning ashen. He had never imagined that Lu Fan could push him to this extent, leaving him with no spare power to deal with Lin Ke.
In that instant, Instructor Ouyang's body turned into an ice sculpture, and before the eyes of all, he was directly defeated.
At this very moment, Lu Fan's Tai Xu Sword intent had reached its zenith, and he himself felt utterly drained.
"Defeated! A Battle Emperor has actually been defeated!"
A cry of astonishment erupted, and numerous experts were filled with disbelief.
