Could he win?

That was Mo Shans.h.i.+'s question.

However, Yan Yin, who was wrapped around in the golden light, soon got the answer to this question.

At that instant when the golden light wrapped around him, Yan Yin felt a terrifyingly strong force.

That feeling was as though as an ocean surrounded him, an vast ocean raging with turbulent waves.

Most importantly, he could clearly see his injuries heal at the speed of lightning.

“This brat… is really powerful!” In the past, Yan Yin's impression of Fang Zhengzhi was that he was a shameless and arrogant person. Now, Yan Yin was genuinely impressed by him.

Impressed beyond words.

Nevertheless, Fang Zhengzhi did not have the time to notice Yan Yin's change in expression and thoughts. He struck his sword without any hint of panic or fear.

It was confidence, confidence that originated from his own capabilities. It was like how as the owner of a gold mine, you are not afraid of ordering a plate of dumplings.

Boom! The sword light and Monster Emperor Baizhi's claw collided, producing a ear-deafening sharp metal sound.

Afterwards, a violent air wave exploded.

The air wave tumbled continuously, causing the fur on Monster Emperor Baizhi's head to stick to he back. Her sharp fox ears kept moving as the eye-blinding lightning shone.

Fang Zhengzhi's blue robe also made flapping noises as it was blown by the wind. His hair-tie was blown off, leaving his long hair flying in the air.

However, this did not affect Fang Zhengzhi's next move.

He did not choose to continue defending on the spot. Instead, tightening his grip on the Traceless Sword, he ran towards Monster Emperor Baizhi for an attack.

“This brat really survived the attack of Monster Emperor Baizhi!” Mo Shans.h.i.+'s eyes were about to pop out as he watched Fang Zhengzhi approach Monster Emperor Baizhi.

“No, not only did he survive, he had obtained the capabilities to fight one on one with Monster Emperor Baizhi!” Mu Qingfeng was equally stunned.

Just not too long ago, Fang Zhengzhi could not even defend a single attack. Yet after a few months, he had shockingly discovered that Fang Zhengzhi had managed to gain so much power.

Luck?

Mu Qingfeng wanted to credit everything to luck. However, thinking of Fang Zhengzhi's encounters in the past few months, he could not bring himself to link his encounters to luck.

After he entered the Holy Region, he had suffered severe injuries like Yan Xiu.

Afterwards, he was caught in the Yin Yang Hall and had to exchange his life for Yan Xiu's survival. Then, he was thrown into the Middle Stream Cauldron of the Nine Pinnacles Mountain.

How could this be luck?

Furthermore, although Mu Qingfeng was not entirely clear about what happened in the Ling Yun Tower, he believed that Fang Zhengzhi must have had something to do with the sudden death of Qian Ye and the inc.u.mbency of Qian Yu as the new tower master of the Ling Yun Tower.

Most importantly, earlier on…

Fang Zhengzhi clearly was not able to match up to Monster Emperor Baizhi. However, after several miss and hits, he “revived” and his powers increased tremendously.

Could all this be luck?

No, this was opportunity!

To be fair, the same opportunity had appeared for Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shans.h.i.+. However, the only person who was able to catch it was Fang Zhengzhi.

It was his bravery and aggressiveness that gave him the confidence to try.

Yet in Mu Qingfeng and Mo Shans.h.i.+'s heart, they had already lost the confidence to try and only knew how to stick to the rules.

Mu Qingfeng looked at Fang Zhengzhi and the sword light that was emitted from his traceless sword and sighed to himself, perhaps, he was really old…

The sword light crossed in the sky.

Fang Zhengzhi's strikes were not too impressive, but every strike was extremely sharp such that even Monster Emperor was not able to block the strikes with her body.

“This brat seemed to have… changed!” After continuously blocking three strikes from Fang Zhengzhi, this thought popped up in Monster Emperor Baizhi's mind.

This was not because of the sudden sharp moves of Fang Zhengzhi. Rather, it was because of the tremendous change in the vibes that Fang Zhengzhi gave off when he attacked.

In the past, Fang Zhengzhi's strikes were urgent and ruthless, as though he wanted to end the battle in the fastest time possible.

Yet now, his strikes were no longer urgent and ruthless. In fact, they were sharp and stable like ripples of waves that flowed continuously.

This was a change in his aura. Similarly, it represented a change in his state of mind.

Urgent and ruthless represented Fang Zhengzhi's state of mind when he wanted to take advantage of opportunities to find the weakness spot and attack it.

Yet now, he no longer took advantage of such opportunities. This proved that Fang Zhengzhi;s state of mind had become extremely confident. Only such confidence could allow Fang Zhengzhi to take on a battle with Monster Emperor Baizhi.

Boom! The sword light and claw collided once again. Then, the air wave violently twirled in the sky, forming a gigantic tornado.

This scene stunned the sages and the monster kings. Fang Zhengzhi had made too many strikes.

More than five strikes!

Five strikes and had had yet to retreat at all. In fact, he continued closing in and attacked Monster Emperor Baizhi continuously as though he had no intention of escaping.

Most importantly, Monster Emperor Baizhi did not counterattack.

“Fang Zhengzhi, he… he could break a tie with Monster Emperor Baizhi alone?”

“Terrifying! How could this happen?”

“She is the Monster Emperor, the most powerful in the Holy Region! Whereas Fang Zhengzhi is only eighteen years old! How could an eighteen year-old tie with Monster Emperor Baizhi?”

The sages were initially proud of themselves for having reached the Sage State. Yet, after seeing Fang Zhengzhi's battle with Monster Emperor Baizhi, they lost their pride.

It was a blow to their confidence!

It was as though you had worked hard for your entire life for something which another person managed to accomplish in one or two years' time. They definitely felt indignant and salty over that.

“Lady Empress!”

Roar!

Roar!

The monster kings were equally shocked. After all, in their heart, Monster Emperor Baizhi was like G.o.d who was a superior figure that would definitely not lose in a battle.

Yet now, Monster Emperor Baizhi was hindered by an eighteen year-old human.

How could they not be shocked?
