Capítulo 671: Chapter 609: Kuang Tianqing, Enjoy It to the Fullest

An Zhen True Monarch watched the live battle and thought to himself, “Zhang Yu is actually taking the initiative to confront Kuang Tianqing? Is it to gain more screen time?”

“It’s a bold choice, but also very risky.”

An Zhen True Monarch knew that if Zhang Yu performed well next, managing to hold off Kuang Tianqing even for a short time, even if he was severely injured, he could earn considerable acclaim and gain significant exposure and attention.

“This is a kind of advantage for the underdog. Against an opponent like Kuang Tianqing, as long as it’s not a crushing defeat, it would be beneficial.”

“But for a top student like Kuang Tianqing, facing a weaker opponent, unless it’s a quick victory, some might start to lower their evaluation of him.”

“However… there’s a significant risk for Zhang Yu as well.”

An Zhen True Monarch understood that if Zhang Yu didn’t just suffer a defeat but was instead toyed with by Kuang Tianqing, he would become a laughingstock, a clown on today’s battlefield.

Like being forced to kneel by Kuang Tianqing, having humiliating marks or inscriptions left on him, enduring powerful practices from Corpse Demons or Demon Descendants, with demon seeds injected into his body, or even worse scenarios…

“The students from Sky Demon University excel at insulting and mocking their opponents to enhance their own fame and suppress their opponents’ Immortal Path potential.”

“On the other hand, those humiliated will garner massive attention and negative publicity, only to be repeatedly exploited by sharp critiques from the media, while failing to earn any money and instead ruining their reputation, making the path of the Immortal Path difficult.”

At the same time, countless viewers watching the live stream had similar thoughts as An Zhen True Monarch.

In their view, Zhang Yu’s outcome at this moment only had two possibilities.

A crushing defeat!

Or a crushing defeat accompanied by harsh humiliation!

Director Gao watched the live stream, feeling tight-chested, as concern arose for the young talent he had nurtured for so long, now facing the impending storm.

Magnetic Pole True Monarch received a notification from the Artifact Spirit, furrowing his brows as he watched Kuang Tianqing and Zhang Yu on screen, “What is Tao Qiankun doing? How did Zhang Yu end up facing Kuang Tianqing?”

On the construction site, Yu Xinghan was giving Shi Huaiyu a massage, feeling tense inside and unconsciously increasing his pressure.

At the same time, countless viewers watching the live stream learned that Zhang Yu was about to battle Kuang Tianqing.

Jiutian Liu, who was engaged in a fierce battle with students from the Finance Department, tightened his brow as he saw the video sent to his ocular frame.

“Zhang Yu is fighting Kuang Tianqing?” Jiutian Liu wondered, “How much money did this kid take to play this risky game?”

The video Jiutian Liu saw was the one Zhang Yu shared in the four-school group.

Zhang Yu: I found Kuang Tianqing [Video Link]

Ye Xingli quickly messaged Zhang Yu: Run towards me, forget about the captives

In the eyes of many students in the four-school group, Zhang Yu was already considered a dead man. They merely marked Zhang Yu’s location and began to speculate and discuss Kuang Tianqing’s next move.

Meanwhile, facing Kuang Tianqing head-on wasn’t limited to Zhang Yu alone.

Zhao Tianxing felt the terrifying pressure emanating from Kuang Tianqing, his mind blank and nerves stretched to the limit.

“I… I’m just a college student, how did it come to this point? Why am I about to fight the strongest opponent across all ten schools?”

Hu Yuntao, feeling his emotions surge, found his thoughts fluctuating between fast and slow, making the entire world seem surreal.

“Don’t be nervous, damn it! We have to fight!”

Feeling the tense atmosphere in the air, Zhang Yu looked at Kuang Tianqing and calmly said, “I’ve been looking for an opportunity, seeking your weaknesses, searching for an area… where I can defeat you.”

But without giving Zhang Yu a chance to say more, Kuang Tianqing had already transformed into a blur, directly shooting towards Zhang Yu.

Like two meteors, they collided fiercely, and the battle erupted dramatically.

“Humph, trying to say more in the live stream?” Kuang Tianqing sneered internally, “Why should I give you more screen time?”

Of course, beyond this reason, Kuang Tianqing understood that Tao Qiankun and other opponents might arrive at any moment, requiring her to resolve the battle as quickly as possible.

Zhang Yu cursed inwardly, “This guy, after bragging so much himself, won’t let me speak? Afraid of others stealing your spotlight?”

Zhang Yu certainly wouldn’t follow Kuang Tianqing’s pace. He knew that their clash meant fighting for the rhythm of the battle.

Moreover, this battle demanded the absorption of each other’s exposure and attention, necessitating the need for speech.

Sometimes, speaking was more important than the battle itself.

Amid the intense battle with Kuang Tianqing, Zhang Yu spoke through the Spirit Realm, leaving text projections in the air.

“Kuang Tianqing, you roam the battlefield with illusions, controlling the rhythm. Not only do you maximize each ally’s power, but you also guide the opponents’ pace, trying to bring everything under control.”

“But to achieve this, you’ve maneuvered all the forces on the battlefield.”

“As a result, at this very moment, in the next brief moment, you have only yourself to rely on… this is your weakest moment.”

While speaking, flames suddenly surged on Zhang Yu’s body, seemingly engulfing his flesh entirely.

Watching Zhang Yu, who engulfed the humanoid shell and wrapped himself with Heavenly Sun Divine, Kuang Tianqing thought to himself: “Hmph, using Heavenly Sun Divine as armor, huh?”

“But why is my Heavenly Demon Illusion Body Technique not working?”

Kuang Tianqing knew his Heavenly Demon Illusion Body Technique worked through Spiritual Mechanism, distorting perception abilities whether it be the human body, Magic Remains, or Magic Treasure. All would fall prey to his Illusion Technique.

“Unless they don’t contact Spiritual Mechanism.”

“But to make the Heavenly Demon Illusion effective, I polluted the Spirit Vein early on.”

In Kuang Tianqing’s view, the gigantic fortress beneath his feet was a useless cage, and the influenced Spirit Vein made it easier for him to pollute, letting all opponents fall for his Illusion Technique.

“It’s too late to stop Breathing Spirit Mechanism during the battle; you were already caught in my Heavenly Demon Illusion Body Technique before the fight started.”

Kuang Tianqing understood that this was the fearsome aspect of the current beta version of the Heavenly Demon Illusion Body Technique; almost indefensible through Spiritual Mechanism, far beyond defense just by stopping Breathing Spirit Mechanism during the fight.

However, Kuang Tianqing knew that after this exposure, someone would soon think of the Spirit Vein and realize that her Heavenly Demon Illusion Body Technique worked through the Spirit Vein, thus reducing her information advantage.

“This Immortal Path trash avoided the illusion; the only possibility… is constantly refining mana by burning matter.”

Information about Heavenly Sun Divine flashed through Kuang Tianqing’s mind, as he continued to ponder: “Despite having a more efficient Spirit Vein, still insisting on using puppets to burn matter for Mana.”

“This indicates that this Immortal Path trash has been guarding against me these past two days, unwilling to have even the slightest chance of falling into an illusion.”

Thinking of this, Kuang Tianqing felt ridiculous.

The opponent’s cautiousness and prudence only disgusted her.

“Guard against me? Spending so much time to guard against me?”

“Do you really think you have a chance to fight against me?”

The Sky Demon Void Technique turned Kuang Tianqing into an illusionary shadow, effortlessly dodging the opponent’s attack.

Cangming Returning Void Technique activated, swallowing Zhang Yu like a black hole, followed by Heavenly Sun Divine blasting out Constant Sun Flame.

With the support of these two Cultivation Techniques, Zhang Yu’s every attack seemed easily countered, allowing Kuang Tianqing to stand undefeated.

And in this short instant of their battle, they had already exchanged dozens of blows, each engaging in numerous rounds of lightning-fast thought in their minds.

Yet, just after this instant of opening battle, the surrounding ground and walls trembled and moved violently.

Kuang Tianqing was stirred inside: “The walls are moving on their own? My Heavenly Demon Banner should have suppressed the surrounding equipment, how did the mana circuits here activate?”

Zhang Yu coldly stated: “Kuang Tianqing, are you wondering why this place is activating?”

“Because I knew long ago that competing in Spirit Realm technology, even with Array support, I couldn’t dominate alone in such a complex battlefield.”

“Therefore, inside this prison, I abandoned information technology and employed a large amount of pure mechanical force, using Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power to activate and complete the terrain alteration…”

At this moment, layers of armor and walls surged toward the positions of Zhang Yu and Kuang Tianqing, like waves of mudflows, threatening to bury and trap them completely.

One thing Zhang Yu didn’t mention was that to strengthen the structures near the captives, he borrowed many Magic Remains and ashes from the prisoners to complete a blood sacrifice, greatly enhancing the building’s toughness.

Why would the opponent’s captives have ashes?

Who doesn’t produce a bit of ashes?

And aside from these, with the activation of Heaven and Earth Destruction Invisible Heart Soldiers at this moment, the mana circuits inside the walls sparkled with spiritual light, transforming into temporary Magic Treasures, elevating the defensive strength one more notch.

Zhang Yu coldly stated: “Kuang Tianqing, now you are already trapped by me.”

The buzzing vibration reverberated through the air.

Kuang Tianqing squinted, noticing numerous holes on the walls.

The next moment, black rays poured out from the holes, a seemingly endless stream of flying swords.

In almost every moment, hundreds of flying swords poured out.

Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power exploded, under Zhang Yu’s command, hurling the storm of flying swords fiercely towards Kuang Tianqing.

Zhang Yu shouted: “Kuang Tianqing, enjoy the Ten Thousand Swords Formation I created for you.”

Each flying sword pouring out at this moment was produced by Zhang Yu consuming a large amount of metal material.

The elongated ones he named Flying Sword, used to orchestrate the Ten Thousand Swords Formation; the round ones he named Sword Marbles, reserved for subsequent use.

And these elongated flying swords produced by Zhang Yu numbered a full ten thousand!

Though called flying swords, their form remained simple sword-shaped, with decent strength after his processing.

But with the activation of Heaven and Earth Destruction Invisible Heart Soldiers, each sword shape temporarily transformed into Magic Treasures, and propelled by Heavenly Kunlun Mountain Shifting Divine Power, they advanced at high speed, wielding true flying sword power within these brief moments.

“Kuang Tianqing, I will use absolute quantity and matter to break your Cangming Returning Void Technique!”
