Chapter 254: Lu Yin’s Tyranny (2/2)
“Can the Daynight clan win with Feng Shang on their side? He’s not in the top four.”
“Feng Shang’s not weak either. If he hadn’t run into Starsibyl, then he would have battled against Grandini Mavis. Amongst the ten student leaders, he’s probably in the upper half.”
…
Wu Da muttered to himself as he recorded down all the comments being exchanged around him.
“Hey, do you think that Feng Shang and Nightqueen Yanqing had an affair? If not, why would he help her?”
When Wu Da heard that conjecture, his eyes lit up as he immediately wrote it down. This gossip was related to the battle, and there was definitely something newsworthy among all this gossip.
“Don’t talk crap. How is that even possible? The Daynight clan members don't marry outside of the clan. That rule has been passed down for ages.”
“Feng Shang is the third son of the Feng family, and he doesn’t have a weak position himself. Despite that, he still can’t match up to Nightqueen Yanqing. It’s impossible.”
…
Amidst the ongoing discussions, a heavy feeling of oppression suddenly swept across the area, causing everyone to look up and see Lu Yin appear.
All of the Daynight clan members rose up from the Heavenly Drum and stared at Lu Yin with fury carved in their faces.
Nightqueen Yanqing’s gaze was cold.
Feng Shang’s was helpless.
Lu Yin towered above them in the sky and looked down as his gaze swept across all the Daynight clan members before finally stopping on Feng Shang. “Brother Feng, you’re helping the Daynight clan?”
Feng Shang smiled bitterly. “I’m sorry, Brother Lu. I owe Nightqueen Yanqing a favor, and I have no choice but to repay it today.”
Lu Yin nodded. “It’s just a duel, so I won’t bear any grudges against you.”
“Of course, I, Feng Shang, have no enmity with you either,” Feng Shang shouted back.
Nightqueen Yanqing frowned and looked at Lu Yin with her cold and arrogant purple eyes. “You actually dared to appear here and challenge the Daynight clan. This will be the last bit of regret you feel in your life.”
“Just try and make me feel regret,” Lu Yin savagely barked back. A purple aura marked with dark-gold lines shrouded his body. His five-lined battle force burst forth from his body as he ferociously dropped down towards the Heavenly Drum.
At the same time, Feng Shang waved his hand and caused the entire area to turn green; this was his domain. Nightqueen Yanqing also activated her four-lined battle force as she yelled out, “Nightking’s Body.”
Around the two of them, more than twenty Daynight clan members leapt up to attack Lu Yin.
Boom!
A shockwave pulsed through the Heavenly Drum, creating a visible hurricane that swept outwards from the Heavenly Drum. A portion of the nearby mountains collapsed, and a sinkhole appeared in the ground as more than ten students were instantly shredded to pieces.
The force of this collision was astounding.
Seven Daynight clan members had already been obliterated; their participation had not made much a difference in this battle. The main force that was contending against Lu Yin was formed from the combined forces of Feng Shang and Nightqueen Yanqing.
There were only a few instances in the Astral Combat Academy’s history of two Realm Masters uniting to fight against one person, but another case was happening right now.
Lu Yin swept out with one leg and directly sent Nightqueen Yanqing flying. He then turned around to swat at Feng Shang with his palm, who had also thrust out with his palm. “Cyclone Strike.”
The sheer force of this hurricane had defeated Sha during the tournament, and today, this same vortex was now colliding with Lu Yin’s Nine Stacks, Seventeenfold Shockwave Palm. The first blade of wind was instantly crushed while the second blade could only resist eight stacks. The strength of the ninth stack completely dissipated the third wind blade and went on to crash into Feng Shang’s body, forcing him to slam into the Heavenly Drum, which emitted a thunderous noise.
Lu Yin’s five-lined battle force was invincible, or at the very least, it was against these two; Lu Yin had only made one move, but Feng Shang was already heavily injured. Even though this was not as shocking as when Starsibyl instantly wiped Feng Shang out, it was similarly horrifying.
The dozen or so remaining Daynight clan members all used their own battle techniques to attack Lu Yin.
Lu Yin snorted and vanished with Flash. He then slammed down on the various Daynight clan members with a palm attack that engulfed them all. He instantly closed his hand, disregarding the fact that there were even some Area Masters among his targets. Still, they were nothing to him, and were utterly unable to escape their fate of being crushed to death.
Outside the Heavenly Drum, Xia Ye was shocked. This was Lu Yin? Five-lined battle force was just too overpowering! Even though they had awakened their battle force at around the same time, the disparity between them had become too great.
At that moment, Nightqueen Yanqing appeared behind Lu Yin and violently shouted, “Go die!” She then instantly let loose a Nightking Punch.
Lu Yin turned around and raised his hand. A shockwave pulsed straight down into the ground, splitting it open. The shockwave itself was an attack, and it shattered the void, causing a long spatial crack to extend into the distance.
Everyone stared at the sky in amazement; Lu Yin had single-handedly received Nightqueen Yanqing’s strongest blow, but he hadn’t even taken a single step yet.
