“It’s fine even if you lose, Mr. Lu! You’ll be able to win in the future!” Coco grabbed Lu Yin by the arm as she preemptively comforted him.

Lu Yin was struck speechless by her response. “I’m not guaranteed to lose!”

Coco pursed her lips. “Even Ms. Michelle’s terrifying attacks didn’t do anything to him. I don’t think anybody here can beat him.”

Lu Yin burst into a fit of laughter. He wasn’t sure how many people had noticed it, but Michelle’s attack had actually been blocked by Darkvoid. There had been a thin layer of defense on his back and the arrow hadn’t touched him at all. Or to be precise, the arrow hadn’t been able to penetrate through that layer of protection.

Additionally, Michelle had overestimated herself. The reason why her attacks were able to shatter space was mostly because the space had already been weakened by Darkvoid’s innate gift. She wasn’t able to cause such cracks unassisted; otherwise, she would not have spent that much time to see through the rain and find the Rainmaster’s gift. However, Lu Yin didn’t see any need to explain all of this to the small girl beside him.

“Cough cough. To avoid wasting too much time, the competition will continue. Round seven, Xia Luo versus Lulu Mavis. Begin,” Big Pao announced.

Xia Luo walked out and gently gazed at Lulu.

Lulu knocked her fists together, letting out a dull thudding noise each time. She was such a cute girl, but her actions were extremely brutish. Every time Lu Yin saw Lulu eagerly anticipating a fight, he would be reminded of that turtle back on Earth. The girl really did not fear anything.

“Be careful. This isn’t a friendly duel, so I won’t hold back,” Lulu said provokingly.

Xia Luo laughed in response. “You don’t even hold back in our friendly duels. But you’ve since become a Melder and gotten much stronger, so I will need to be careful.”

With a flip of her hair, Lulu charged towards Xia Luo, the ground splitting underneath her forceful movement in an impressive explosion. Xia Luo’s eyes sparkled and he took two steps backwards to perfectly dodge the attack. Lulu hit nothing but air, but the air formed into a conical shockwave that shot off into the distance. The air was distorted, and the shockwave ruffled Xia Luo’s hair as he was forced to take several more steps back.

Lulu snorted and used White Flash to disappear. When she reappeared, she viciously kicked out at Xia Luo, who lifted a leg to block the kick. There was a tremendous crash, and the ground beneath them collapsed, causing both of them to fall to the bottom of the pit. Massive cracks began radiating out from the hole and toward Lu Yin and the other onlookers.

Everyone was surprised by the amount of force the two could use even without any battle techniques. How was this possible?

Michelle was shocked as well. She could feel a sense of pressure just from the aftershocks of this battle, which showed just how powerful these two were.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The earth trembled and the cracks spread even further. Lu Yin and the rest had no choice but to take to the air as the ground beneath them ruptured. The level of destruction in this match was surprisingly not any less than Michelle and Darkvoid’s. The major difference was that those two had fought each other from a distance while Xia Luo and Lulu were fighting in close combat, which made their feat only more impressive.

Boom!

After landing a punch, Lulu felt surprised. From the very first encounter in this battle, she could tell that Xia Luo had a technique that forced his opponents to use up their star energy. She could also tell that he was much stronger than their last duel. Because of this, she didn’t bother using any of her star energy and relied solely on her physical body to attack. But even though she was using pure physical power, Xia Luo was able to take her attacks. Lulu was from the Mavis family and was still annoyed that she had lost to Lu Yin in terms of strength. If even Xia Luo was stronger than her, then her humiliation would double. The Mavis family’s name couldn’t be disgraced like this.

She shouted, and the image of a towering tree appeared behind her, causing her strength to increase greatly. With this timely powerup, Xia Luo was sent flying by her next attack. With a White Flash, she appeared behind him and directly punched him again. Xia Luo was bashed into the ground so forcefully that the earth was pulverized for a kilometer in all directions. With Xia Luo at the center, the destruction rippled out like waves. It was an incredible sight. The damage done to the ground with this single punch was far greater than the previous battles combined. It was impossible for anyone to remain standing in the mess, as there was now a huge pit in the center of the arena while smoke and dust rose into the sky.

Coco covered her mouth in shock. “She’s terrifying.”

Lu Yin raised his eyebrows in surprise as well. Lulu had become much stronger. The Mavis Family truly did consist of human dinosaurs!

Hovering up in the sky, Lulu looked at everyone with a grim face and said in frustration, “I lost.”

Everyone was surprised. She had lost? How?

At that moment, Xia Luo dusted off his clothes with a wry smile and looked at her, “Can’t you be a bit more gentle? I was nearly smashed to bits.”

Lulu rolled her eyes at him. “What’s with this bullshit even after you won?”

Amidst the masses, Big Pao announced, “The seventh match’s winner is Xia Luo.”

Many people were confused by the outcome, and even Michelle didn’t understand.
