Chapter 238: Deadlock

No one knew what Xiao Ming was thinking about, and when Yun Yun saw that he didn't seem to care about the fight, she gave up the idea of asking.

However, as soon as she turned her head, she heard a delicate voice coming from the other side of Xiao Ming, which made her turn her head again to look.

Xiao Yi Xian and Zi Yan were wearing white dresses today, one looking curvy and charming, and the other cute and delicate.

Yun Yun saw Xiao Yi Xian smile and say, "Xiao Ming, who do you think will win today?"

Although he wasn't really paying attention to it, Xiao Ming could only watch the square carefully since Xiao Yi Xian had asked.

After a moment, he spoke, "If no special means are used, Xiao Yan is still slightly weaker than Nalan Yanran."

Nalan Yanran had entered the Dou Grandmaster realm before Xiao Yan, so she had a better understanding of it, moreover, her Dou Techniques also restricted him.

She had been cultivating arduously in the Misty Cloud Sect and had cultivated more Dou Techniques than Xiao Yan, who spent his time traveling back and forth.

Although Xiao Yan had devoured a Heavenly Flame, and as long as he took it out, Nalan Yanran's advantage in Dou Techniques would be countered, but would he dare to use it?

This was really hard to say, that was why Xiao Ming said that, without the use of special means, Xiao Yan would be a bit weaker.

Xiao Yi Xian nodded slightly when she heard this, she had seen Xiao Yan's Heavenly Flame and having a Heavenly Flame herself, she understood its terrifying nature very well.

But she was also a little confused, Xiao Ming seemed to think that Xiao Yan would be apprehensive about using the Heavenly Flame, could it be that this Heavenly Flame had something to do with the Misty Cloud Sect? If so, it was no wonder that that shameless old man would ask Xiao Ming to protect Xiao Yan.

Seeing that Yun Yun was on the other side, Xiao Yi Xian did not ask Xiao Ming about the details of it, instead, she laid her head on his shoulder as she watched the battle silently.

Zi Yan, meanwhile, yawned in boredom, when suddenly she seemed to sense a familiar aura and hurriedly looked in all directions.

...

The scorching sun stood tall in the sky, its brilliant rays shining down upon the earth, dispelling the faint mist that had enveloped the square and warming the bodies of all those present.

The square was filled with the sounds of intense fighting as Xiao Yan clashed once again with Nalan Yanran. Their powerful energies pushed them away from each other, both of them panting heavily.

Xiao Yan realized that the Little Sect Leader of the Misty Cloud Sect was not to be underestimated.

He could sense that Nalan Yanran's Qi Method was of a higher level than his current Flame Mantra, and if the battle were to continue for much longer, he would be at a severe disadvantage.

'I must end the battle quickly.' With a sigh in his heart, the aura on Xiao Yan's body surged violently as the earthy yellow Dou Qi penetrated his body. In an instant, a set of ancient and majestic armor condensed on the surface of his body.

"Blazing Steps!"

With a powerful shout, Xiao Yan took a fierce stance, his feet slightly apart as he charged towards Nalan Yanran with peerless power.

This sudden display of strength stunned the entire crowd, who would have thought that the once-wasted young man could have broken through to become a Dou Grandmaster in just three short years?

The Misty Cloud Sect Elders on the stone platform and even Yun Yun, standing next to Xiao Ming, were all surprised by Xiao Yan's sudden surge of power.

Nalan Yanran's eyes narrowed in surprise, but she remained undaunted. She knew that in order to face Xiao Yan, she must bring out her full strength.

As a subtle whistling sound echoed throughout the arena, Nalan Yanran's aura swelled within her body, causing her light green Dou Qi to surge and merge into a delicate and refined light green armor that encased her voluptuous and delicate form.

Although both possessed Dou Qi armor, it was clear that Nalan Yanran's was far more refined than Xiao Yan's more rustic armor, showing a gap in their respective strengths.

With a quick tap of her toes, Nalan Yanran's body was surrounded by a stream of green air, making her appear weightless as she shot towards Xiao Yan with an unconventional speed.

"Wind Spirit Fractal Sword!"

The whirlwind of pale green wind that was wrapped around the sword blade suddenly quickly rose to a meter in size before detaching from the sword blade and attacking Xiao Yan.

"Hundred Flames Strike!"

Fiery Dou Qi energy flowed out from the Heavy Xuan Ruler as a sizzling wave of Qi spread out, and with Xiao Yan's swing, the Heavy Xuan Ruler swiftly crashed towards Nalan Yanran.

Boom!

The wind whirlwind and the Heavy Xuan Ruler collided violently, and in an instant, a huge sound was heard throughout the square.

The wind whirlwind shattered into pieces and the violent recoil also made Xiao Yan's hands holding the Heavy Xuan Ruler a little sore and numb.

"Thousand Wind Blade!"

When Xiao Yan interrupted the attack, Nalan Yanran was not surprised in the slightest and her jade palm swirled rapidly, five spiral sword diagrams made of wind attributed Dou Qi took shape on her fingertips in the blink of an eye, and with a sharp shout, the five rough sword diagrams shot out from her fingers, twisting and converging into a small, bright green line that shot towards Xiao Yan with the speed of lightning.

The five sharp spiral sword diagrams pierced through the air obstruction and appeared in front of Xiao Yan almost in an instant. The green light trembled violently, and then the five spiral sword diagrams separated from the center and shot out towards the five critical points of his body, and the fierce wind that was generated by the shots caused Xiao Yan's eyes to narrow slightly.

'What a fast speed!' The Thousand Wind Blade's attack speed was so fast that even Xiao Yan was surprised.

The first thing that came to his mind was to use his Heavenly Flame to resist the attack, but with worries in his mind, Xiao Yan had to give up using it and instead tried his best to raise his sore and numb arm to try to resist the attack with the Heavy Xuan Ruler's huge body.

Unfortunately, the Heavy Xuan Ruler was so named precisely because it was quite heavy, and it was completely impossible to use it to repel the attack that was quickly fired at him.

Even with Xiao Yan's full strength, he could barely block one attack, while the remaining four mercilessly struck his left and right arms, as well as his left and right calves, piercing through his Dou Qi armor. Sparks and screeching friction could be heard. After a moment, as the energy depleted, the sword Qi slowly dissipated, leaving four sizable holes in Xiao Yan's Dou Qi armor. Although the holes were gradually being repaired by his Dou Qi, some blood could still be seen. It seemed that Xiao Yan had suffered some external injuries from this attack.

Xiao Yan did not seem to feel this external injury, and instead, he once again rushed at Nalan Yanran and fought with her hand-to-hand.

As the Heavy Xuan Ruler swung, it unleashed a whistling wind that struck Nalan Yanran, being repelled by the longsword in her hand.

With each clash, the longsword in Nalan Yanran's hand twisted in an arc and almost fell off several times.

Clearly, Xiao Yan was superior in terms of strength.

In response, Nalan Yanran used a siege-based attack method, taking full advantage of her Qi Method and wind attribute Dou Techniques.

For a while, both parties remained in a deadlock.
