"You?"
Instructor Ouyang looked at Lu Fan. "Even if you awakened the Taixu Sword, what can you do? In front of true powerhouses, everything is like ants!"
"How will you know if you don't try!"
Lu Fan's expression was indifferent, surrounded by the Taixu sword intent, carrying an supreme aura. Now that he had awakened the Taixu Sword, his overall combat power had risen a notch. Even against a Battle Emperor, Lu Fan wanted to give it a try.
"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 it would be difficult for Lu Fan alone. With him joining, they might be able to fight.
"Even if you two join forces, what can you do to me!"
Instructor Ouyang laughed, full of disdain. As a Battle Emperor, he was considered a top-tier combatant. In his eyes, these people were like ants, and he wouldn't take them seriously.
"Xiao Fan, his strength is formidable, by no means an ordinary person!"
Lin Ke whispered, "Be careful then!"
"Don't worry, with the Taixu Sword in hand, I will have the power to fight!"
Lu Fan said solemnly, "With our combined strength, we can definitely suppress him!"
Lin Ke nodded slightly and unleashed the Ice Sword, carrying a formidable aura. Wherever it passed, it caused a thousand miles to be frozen.
The crowd present retreated rapidly, as they clearly understood that a magnificent battle was about to commence.
"Seeking death!"
Instructor Ouyang's expression was cold as he strode towards Lin Ke, his aura surging. As a Battle Emperor, why would he retreat?
Boom...
With a deafening roar, Lin Ke was sent flying back violently, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth. In the face of a true Battle Emperor, he was still unable to resist, even with the protection of the Ice Sword.
Seeing that Lu Fan was in a precarious situation, he also attacked first, the Taixu sword intent surging from his hand, carrying supreme momentum.
Instructor Ouyang's expression was icy, and he did not dodge at all, striding directly towards Lu Fan. Even with the Taixu Sword, he remained unafraid. Battle Emperors were not to be trifled with by just anyone.
"Taixu Sword Intent!"
Lu Fan shouted, soaring into the sky, his powerful sword intent emanating an ancient aura. Even within the Dragon Capital, there was a powerful sword intent.
"What a powerful sword intent!"
The Grand Elder was shocked. "Is this the might of the Taixu Sword?"
"Indeed worthy of being an ancient artifact!"
The other elders were astonished, as such power was truly awe-inspiring.
Unfortunately, Lu Fan was facing a Battle Emperor. If not, who in the Dragon Kingdom could contend with Lu Fan?
Instructor Ouyang dared not be careless. Although he was a Battle Emperor, Lu Fan's displayed aura had deeply shaken him, even instilling a sense of apprehension.
Boom...
Another massive sound echoed. Instructor Ouyang was forced back, and blood also seeped from his arm.
Lu Fan also suffered a severe blow, retreating rapidly, blood trickling from his lips. Even with the Taixu Sword in hand, he was still somewhat outmatched against a Battle Emperor.
"Xiao Fan!"
Lin Ke cried out, his concern evident.
"It's nothing!"
Lu Fan waved his hand, gripping the Taixu Sword tightly, his eyes glinting coldly. "I truly did not expect that any random instructor in Canglong Academy would possess such strength!"
"Nor did I expect it!"
Instructor Ouyang said coldly, "Yet a mere Battle Sovereign could injure me!"
"With the Taixu Sword in hand, not to mention injuring you, even keeping you here today seems not impossible!"
"What audacious words!"
Instructor Ouyang's aura intensified, filled with considerable displeasure. As a Battle Emperor, when had he ever suffered such an insult?
The elders present also showed expressions of shock. They had not expected Lu Fan to speak so arrogantly, not taking Instructor Ouyang seriously. This was a Battle Emperor-level expert, and under normal circumstances, this battle would undoubtedly end in defeat.
"He doesn't even regard a Battle Emperor as a threat; what kind of methods does he possess!"
"Who can say? How powerful is a Battle Emperor? That he can still contend with him proves he has some skills!"
From the shadows of the Dragon Capital, many experts from ancient sects spoke, their eyes filled with surprise, and even some doubt. In their eyes, Lu Fan was, after all, only a Battle Sovereign, so how could he contend with a Battle Emperor?
However, Lu Fan had indeed injured Instructor Ouyang just now, which made everything seem more plausible.
"With you being so arrogant, if I don't deal with you today, wouldn't my reputation suffer!"
Instructor Ouyang sneered, a dark energy surging around him, carrying killing intent.
"You must be careful."
Long Yi quickly warned, "He is about to use his full power. If there is the slightest misstep, you will surely meet your end!"
"I want to see if he truly has that capability!"
Lu Fan also surged into the sky with the Taixu Sword, his eyes gleaming sharply, his expression rather displeased.
Witnessing the scene, everyone was instantly excited. They knew very well that this battle was of great importance. If Lu Fan lost, the Taixu Sword would fall into Instructor Ouyang's hands.
If Lu Fan were to win, it was likely that the future would not be peaceful, as Canglong Academy was not to be trifled with.
Behind Instructor Ouyang, a fierce tiger surged forth, and he charged towards Lu Fan. No one dared to block his path, and his presence was filled with an overwhelming aura.
Gazing at the scene, Lu Fan's sword intent boiled. Within the Taixu sword intent, there was the phantom of a true dragon, coiling around the Taixu Sword, accompanied by dragon roars, making it appear particularly terrifying.
One aura was powerful and seemingly unparalleled, while the other was filled with ancient energy, causing people to tremble.
The two figures collided, unleashing boundless power. The sky above the entire Dragon Capital was pierced by a massive beam of light, radiating an overwhelming aura that sent shivers down one's spine.
Besides Instructor Ouyang, Lu Fan was also exerting his full strength, his gaze solemn. He knew very well that if he couldn't defeat Instructor Ouyang in this battle, it would lead to unnecessary trouble.
Seeing the two sides locked in a stalemate, seemingly evenly matched, Lin Ke did not hesitate. He ascended into the sky with his supreme aura, his sword surging forth, captivating all who witnessed it.
"Thousand Miles of Ice Seal!"
Lin Ke shouted, carrying an intangible force. Coldness permeated wherever he passed. Even the spring water within the Dragon Spring turned into glaciers, giving one a sense of immense chill.
Instructor Ouyang, who was fully engaged in confronting the Taixu sword intent, felt a chill from his back, and his face turned ashen. He never imagined that Lu Fan could push him to this extent, leaving him no extra strength to deal with Lin Ke.
In that instant, Instructor Ouyang turned into an ice sculpture and, under the eyes of all, was directly defeated.
At this very moment, Lu Fan's Taixu sword intent had been pushed to its limit, and he himself was becoming exhausted.
"Defeated! A Battle Emperor is actually defeated!"
A cry of astonishment rang out, with countless experts filled with disbelief.
