High Martial Arts Era

Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Moving Like a Dragon, One Spear to Kill

As the Wolf King lunged, its low growl sounded like an attack command.

"Howl!" The Moon Demon Wolf pack, which had initially retreated due to Li Yuan's cold-blooded slaughter, once again frenziedly attacked Li Yuan.

In their pack, the Wolf King held unquestionable authority.

"Die!" A murderous intent flashed in Li Yuan's eyes.

He knew that the most dangerous moment had arrived.

Although he was prepared to call for help at any time, Li Yuan was reluctant to give up the 'first place' he had already secured unless it was truly a desperate situation.

After all, there was a difference of 500,000 Blue Star Coins and 2 million Blue Star Coins at stake.

"Boom!" The spear in Li Yuan's hand suddenly erupted with power.

His powerful mental energy completely penetrated the weapon, feeling the subtle force flows within it.

Body, mind, and weapon, the three became one, unleashing total power.

"Rip~" The spear danced, its tip drawing dazzling arcs around Li Yuan, moving unpredictably, subtly enveloping him like stars twinkling in the night sky.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The spear's light filled the air, tearing through it.

"Thud~" "Thud~" "Thud~" The first Moon Demon Wolves that lunged at him were pierced through their bodies and heads by the spear, collapsing to the ground with blood splattering.

First move of the Starry Spear Technique—Star Illumination!

After advancing to the fourth grade in spear technique, even Li Yuan's casual strikes held immense power.

But the true deadly moves were the five special techniques of the Starry Spear, which could harness his body's latent strength to the maximum.

Although performing these techniques consumed a great deal of mental and physical energy, their power far surpassed ordinary moves.

In the blink of an eye, six Moon Demon Wolves lay dead at Li Yuan's feet, including one that had reached level 10.

The overwhelming power struck fear into the remaining Moon Demon Wolves.

At this moment!

"Roar~" The Moon Demon Wolf King finally closed in, its speed surpassing Li Yuan's by far.

"Die." Li Yuan shifted his stance, the spear tip flicking like a snake's tongue, thrusting toward the Moon Demon Wolf King with lightning speed.

"Whoosh!" The Moon Demon Wolf King, despite its massive size, was incredibly agile. With a twist of its body, it easily dodged Li Yuan's fierce thrust.

In terms of technique, it was far inferior to Li Yuan, relying mostly on battle instincts.

However, its life level, reaching up to level 12, meant its speed and strength were far superior to Li Yuan's.

The foundation determines the limit.

"Whoosh!" The Wolf King lunged again, probing Li Yuan, while the other Moon Demon Wolves attacked crazily, trying to distract him.

"Clang!"

"Thud!" "Boom!!"

In each clash, some Moon Demon Wolves fell under Li Yuan's spear.

But under such fierce siege, Li Yuan was gradually losing ground.

Several times, to avoid the Wolf King's direct attacks, Li Yuan had to brace himself against the impact of other Moon Demon Wolves' bodies, causing his blood to churn from the tremendous force.

"The Wolf King is too fast."

"The difference in physical strength is too great." Li Yuan struggled, narrowly avoiding the Wolf King's attacks, pushing his agility to the limit.

Occasionally, his sharp spear left small wounds on the Wolf King's body.

Both sides were in a frenzy.

The Moon Demon Wolf King relied on its powerful body and the assistance of many ordinary Moon Demon Wolves.

Li Yuan relied on his technique, the sharpness of his weapon, and the toughness of his protective clothing.

"My stamina..."

"Is starting to run out." Li Yuan appeared frantic, but his mind was extremely calm, precisely calculating his stamina: "I need to find an opportunity."

"This Wolf King keeps hiding its weaknesses, probing me. I need a chance."

One crucial strike, could kill the Moon Demon Wolf King.

...

In a conference room in the war fortress.

Dozens of officers were attentively watching the giant screen showing the fierce battle between Li Yuan and the Moon Demon Wolves.

Li Yuan was originally the top scorer and had always been the most watched.

The Moon Demon Wolf King he was facing was also the strongest Moon Demon King in the entire field exercise.

The only level 12 Star Realm creature.

"What an amazing spear technique."

"Truly beautiful."

"His defense is flawless! In previous battles, we could only see his strong attacks. Now, it's clear that his real strength lies in defense."

"Fourth-grade spear technique? A high school student?"

"I've been practicing the spear for over ten years and only reached the mid-third stage. Compared to him, I've wasted my life."

"The key is, he's able to fully unleash his skills in his first life-and-death battle. Truly a combat genius!" The officers were all amazed.

Perhaps Li Yuan's physical attributes were not high, but his spear technique was indeed pleasing to the eye.

"Old Wang, should we save him?"

The tall, thin officer named Ji asked in a deep voice, "This kid's spear technique is impressive, but the field exercise has been going on for over six hours. I'm afraid his stamina can't hold out under such intense fighting."

"There are too many Moon Demon Wolves, he can't kill them all. Besides, that Wolf King is far stronger than him."

"I'm worried..." The tall, thin officer seemed concerned.

They had indeed activated 'Absolute Protection,' but given the Moon Demon Wolf King's speed and lethality, it wasn't foolproof.

"No rush."

"Look, those two girls are already approaching." The burly officer named Wang pointed to another screen, "If we save Li Yuan now, he won't get first place."

"Oh?"

...

In the forest, two black figures, one big and one small, were moving at high speed.

"Yue Yue, there are many wolf corpses. It seems the battle extended to that wasteland." Wu Dongdong said quickly.

"Yes."

"Judging by the battle marks, someone is being chased." Lin Lanyue, holding a sword in both hands, scanned the surroundings and quickly analyzed the situation.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The two moved quickly, and soon, the wasteland came into view. They saw the fierce battle on the wasteland directly.

"It's Li Yuan!"

Wu Dongdong said excitedly, "Sis, there are so many Moon Demon Wolves, and that Wolf King is likely over level 12!!"

"Li Yuan." Lin Lanyue's eyes focused on Li Yuan, instantly noticing he was at a disadvantage.

A natural sense of worry arose in her heart.

"Hurry, Dongdong, let's save him."

Lin Lanyue sped up, moving like a phantom towards the battlefield.

"Got it!"

"Watch me kill the Wolf King and reclaim first place." Wu Dongdong was extremely excited, following closely behind.

Both of them had physical attributes that had reached the entry level.

...

"Clang!"

"Boom~" The cunning Moon Demon Wolf King kept testing with its sharp claws, which were extremely hard, unafraid of colliding with the spear or even the spear tip.

It gave Li Yuan no chance to strike at its vital points.

Other Moon Demon Wolves also kept attacking, trying to bite or pounce.

In contrast, Li Yuan's spear technique seemed to slow down.

"My stamina is decreasing, and my spear technique is slowing."

"I must hold on, I must defend." Li Yuan's mind was even more focused, fully immersed in the battle.

Li Yuan also realized his weakness.

Footwork!

After his fist technique and spear technique broke through, only his footwork hadn't advanced.

Fourth-grade footwork theoretically just involves the integration of body and mind.

But compared to fist techniques, footwork requires a keen perception and exploration of the surrounding environment.

Sensing and utilizing the environment, making every movement and dodge as efficient and precise as possible.

This is the fourth grade of footwork.

Given another month or two, with his strong mental energy and fist technique level, Li Yuan could definitely break through in footwork.

However, it had only been ten days since his fist technique reached the fourth stage.

Although Li Yuan had been practicing the "Dragon Movement Technique," he still lacked a bit of that feeling.

"If my footwork reached the fourth grade, I could handle the siege of so many Moon Demon Wolves more easily with my spear technique." Li Yuan's eyes were cold.

The pressure of a life-and-death battle.

Would stimulate the deepest part of the body, unleashing the most primal evolutionary force.

No evolution means death!!

The tension and excitement of walking the edge of life and death are incomparable to thousands of virtual battles.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Li Yuan and the Moon Demon Wolf King clashed fiercely.

Gradually, Li Yuan felt a mysterious sensation, vaguely grasping that fleeting inspiration.

Whoosh!

Whoosh! Li Yuan's steps changed, his movement speed unchanged.

However, dodging the Moon Demon Wolf King's attacks became more effortless and agile.

Like a gust of wind!

Every time, he seemed to narrowly dodge the Moon Demon Wolves' attacks.

"Roar~"

"Howl!" The Moon Demon Wolf King grew anxious. It had seen hope in killing Li Yuan.

But now, it felt that hope becoming dim, with every attack missing by just a bit.

Once could be a coincidence, but twice? Thrice?

How did this weak alien life suddenly improve so much?

"Boom!" The Moon Demon Wolf King couldn't hold back any longer, attacking Li Yuan with all its might.

"Dragon Movement."

"The wind follows the tiger, and the clouds follow the dragon. The fourth grade of the Dragon Movement Technique is transforming into wind." Li Yuan was completely immersed in this special state, feeling everything around him.

Instinctively, his body made the most advantageous choices.

Moving like a dragon, transforming into wind!

This is the essence of the Dragon Movement Technique.

"Roar~" The Moon Demon Wolf King roared, lunging forward, trying to corner Li Yuan with its massive body and explosive speed.

"After all these tests, it's finally here."

"Die!"

Li Yuan's eyes suddenly shone with brilliance, his entire body bursting with energy. His spine arched like a bow, all his power transmitted through his waist to his arms.

The spear moved like rolling stars!

The spear's speed exploded.

"Thud!"

A flash of cold light, the spear tip slashing a blood mark under the Moon Demon Wolf King's jaw, then piercing through its soft fur, directly into its heart.

This thrust almost pierced through the Moon Demon Wolf King's body.

It was Li Yuan's long-awaited outburst!

"Thud~~" Blood splattered.

Li Yuan swiftly retracted the spear, tossing the nearly thousand-kilogram Moon Demon Wolf King's corpse over his head, while dodging the attacks of two other Moon Demon Wolves.

"Boom~"

The massive corpse of the Moon Demon Wolf King crashed heavily onto a boulder, then rolled to the ground, still struggling, blood flowing.

"Wow!"

Li Yuan stood tall, his eyes cold, the spear drawing a semicircle, killing a Moon Demon Wolf that couldn't retreat in time.

Showing no signs of weakness.

"Howl~"

"Roar~" The remaining Moon Demon Wolves, their eyes filled with fear, growled and instinctively began retreating, wanting to distance themselves from the demon before them.

"Li Yuan."

"We came to save you."

Two voices called out suddenly. Li Yuan saw two black figures emerge from the forest, charging into the Moon Demon Wolf pack.

Sword light and spear shadows intertwined, blood splattered, and the Moon Demon Wolves fell one by one.

"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" The remaining hundred or so Moon Demon Wolves finally couldn't hold on, howling in panic as they fled into the distance.

Huff!

Seeing this, Li Yuan finally couldn't hold on any longer, collapsing to the ground, gasping for breath.

His stamina had long been near its limit; he had just been holding on to intimidate the wolves.

"Spiritual Awakening Level: 12.8% (Current maximum 20%, can guide source energy into the body once)." Li Yuan glanced at the column on the divine palace panel and pondered.
