When the spatial formation was complete, Shang Xia and the other four Martial Intent Realm disciples moved at the same time.

The moment they did, the only thing Shang Xia wanted to do was to curse out loud. All four of them chose him as their first target! 

Shang Xia would rather beat himself to death than to believe that the four of them didn’t plan it in advance.

Shang Xia wasn’t the only one who was surprised by the sudden assault. The disciples crowding the plaza broke out into clamor.

It was especially so for the disciples of the Tongyou Institution. Even those who didn’t like Shang Xia to begin with, couldn’t help but curse out loud.

The four of them attacked Shang Xia together the moment it started. Didn’t that show that they wanted to kick him out immediately?

Naturally, there was a reason behind their actions. His position was too sensitive. He stood in the middle of the four before the battle started. If all of them chose to attack the closest target, he would be the best choice.

Luckily for Shang Xia, he would only have to take a single strike due to the rules of the duel. The four of them wouldn’t be able to continue their joint assault on Shang Xia if he managed to hold on. Well, at the very least they couldn’t do so in the short term.

The key to the entire thing was whether Shang Xia could take on the combined strike of the four. Unlike most of the Martial Intent Realm cultivators Shang Xia ran into in the past, those four were the elites of the other institutions. They were nurtured using a lot of effort and resources. Almost all of them could leap ranks and defeat those with cultivation bases slightly higher than themselves. At the very least, they were comparable to Dongfang Mingyu of the Rose Party.

In such a critical situation, Shang Xia forced himself to remain calm.

His divine sense that had spread in all four directions earlier returned to him.

With his divine sense concentrated in one place, he quickly regained his mobility. The four of them felt as though he became as slippery as a fish in the water. Even with their divine sense operating at full power, they couldn’t lock on to him.

“He is extremely adept with his inner qi and the use of his divine sense. How can someone who just entered the Martial Intent Realm do that?” 

The same thought flashed in the minds of the four.

It was the exact same moment Shang Xia made his move. Stabbing Tan Xinya with his Waning Moon Spear, he released his divine sense to lock on to her at the same time. His inner qi raced through his body and he quickly entered a miraculous state. He became one with his spear, and he ignored the others. 

With the way he was acting, it seemed as though he was going to drag one of them down with him no matter what happened.

At that instant, the battle became less about pure strength. It became one of willpower! 

It would be difficult for him to fight all four of them alone. However, it was certain that he could take any one of them down if it was just them alone. 

With his complete focus on her, Tan Xinya eventually decided to retreat.

Because of that short hesitation from her, the cooperation among the four broke down instantly.

That was what he had been aiming for in the first place.

Tan Xinya wasn’t willing to be sent out of the battle by Shang Xia immediately, but the same went for Shang Xia. There was no way he could accept being defeated the moment the battle started.

Shang Xia finally comprehended the first move in his Providence Spear Art!

Piercing the void, a ray of light was left behind. The strike he just unleashed had reached the peak level! It also traveled extremely quickly. 

With a trace of hesitation from Tan Xinya, the sword light forcefully tore a void through their fighting formation.

The heaven and earth qi contained in their spatial battlefield trembled violently as ripples appeared on the surface of the barrier separating them from the outside world.

In the eyes of those in the plaza, the five figures contained within started to distort. However, no one dared to chuckle. Instead, they were feeling a little resentful about the fragility of the barrier.

They weren’t the only ones as the Martial Extermination Realm experts were also feeling a little annoyed due to the lack of visibility.

With the Martial Extermination Realm elders stepping in to stabilize the protection screen, it quickly regained its calm. No matter how much the heaven and earth qi fluctuate, the protection screen didn’t waver in the slightest. The battle between the five unfolded clearly in front of everyone’s eyes.

Inside, Shang Xia seemingly managed to take advantage of the gap to escape. However, the truth was that he only avoided Tan Xinya’s hooks. The three other weapons were still flying his way.

With his previous actions, he only managed to change the situation from a four-on-one to a three-on-one!

There was no hiding or running away, he had to take the three of them on at the same time.

Waving his spear, another ray of spear light emerged. It was the second move he comprehended, but it hadn’t been perfected yet. 

His attack was fast, but it was different from his first.

His first attack was called Rift Crossing, and he was able to find any weakness in his opponent’s stance.

His second move was called the Lightning Stonefire. The principle behind it was brute force. It allowed him to use his Origin True Qi to its greatest strength.

This time, he was going to meet their attacks head-on!

A massive spear light bloomed in front of him like a flower, forming three separate offensives.

Three loud blasts rang through the air as the spear light slammed heavily into Song Yushu’s sword, Qin Daxing’s mace, and Ma Jianfan’s axe.

All three spear lights he summoned were real. Moreover, all of them contained a strand of his Origin True Qi!

It was terrifying enough that he managed to repel all their attacks! With the three of them being flung through the air from the recoil, an uneasy look appeared in their eyes when they looked at Shang Xia again. 

Stopping all three of them at the same time proved how powerful he was. His tyrannical strength caused them to look at him in a different light.

Naturally, Shang Xia exerted a lot of energy in order to release his second strike. When he took several steps back, he turned deathly pale. However, he quickly recovered.



The spectators surrounding them released several cries in shock, and chaotic discussions broke through the crowd. 

A portion of them was shocked that Shang Xia could hold the three of them back alone. After all, the three of them were elite cultivators at the Martial Intent Realm! They wondered how powerful Shang Xia truly was. If the strength he displayed was something he could unleash at will, his chances of winning just skyrocketed!

The other portion was extremely suspicious. In fact, they were also starting to panic. The bulk of disciples who made up that group were the disciples of the other four institutions. However, they rejoiced when they saw his reaction after taking on the three’s combined strike. They felt that he was an arrow at the end of his flight.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from "pawread dot com".



“Damn, that’s an amazing strike!” Several Martial Extermination Realm experts managed to see through the intricacies of his previous strike.
