Chapter 392: Turn the Tide

The familiar sense of Ma Xiaoru's soul energy had caught Wang Tong by surprise. From the corner of his eyes, he caught her approaching the stage, and was frightened.
Wang Tong's slight distraction had given the fiery bird advantage, and allowed it to press forward by another few inches. Wang Tong would lose the fight if he couldn't stop the bird.
By then, the oxygen around Wang Tong had been sucked clean by the vacuum. He conceded that the only way of surviving was to shield his sea of consciousness with his GN force. Even then, Wang Tong fingered that the odds of surviving the attack were extremely small. What was worse was that the shockwave from the impact would kill Ma Xiaoru as well.
Suddenly, Wang tong realized that Ma Xiaoru had walked to the stage because she wanted to die with him.
Wang Tong never feared death, not even during the moment of life and death. He would always remain calm until he found out a solution. However, there and then, Wang Tong found that he could hardly think straight.
Li Feng used to say that emotion was the source of the strongest power in humans. But, how could one harness the power?
Wang Tong rounded his eyes as he doubled down his defense. For the sake of Ma Xiaoru, he could not lose the battle.
Suddenly, Wang Tong's eyes started to burn with a golden luster. Ma Xiaoru's danger had triggered and unleashed Wang Tong deepest emotion and given him strength.
A burst of golden whirlwind appeared around Wang Tong. However, the fiery bird didn't waver.
Seeing Wang Tong's unyielding fighting spirit, a sense of respect suddenly rose inside of Michaux. However, he knew that his coup de grace was unstoppable, and Wang Tong had already reached his limit.
”Kom!”
Wang Tong struggled to resist the force from above, but he could barely lift his arm above his shoulder. Truth be told, what he wanted to do was practically impossible.
Wang Tong knew that if he still wanted to win the fight, he would have to find out a way to turn the tide right now.
Inside Ayrlarng, a fist-clenching, teeth-gritting quietness fell in the campus. Everyone's thoughts were the same.
Wang Tong pushed himself closer to a trance as the situation became more urgent.
Finally, a golden energy burst out from Wang Tong and shot straight up into the air. Wang Tong pushed his arms up slowly as his eyes turned into a mixture of gold and blood. Suddenly, the energy in the air stopped moving about, and even Michaux sensed the sudden change in the flow of energy.
”Kom!”
The golden energy flowed anew and took on a snake-like shape as it shot higher up into the air, then released a deafening roar.
A dragon slowly rose from the ground and pushed its head against the Undying Phoenix. The phoenix's movement was slowed down already. Despite the temporary setback in Michaux's attack, no one had thought that Wang Tong had a chance of turning the tide of the battle. However, only three seconds later, the audiences learned that they were wrong. The golden dragon opened its mouth and swallowed the Undying Phoenix, then soared into the sky towards Michaux. Michaux was ready to defend against the incoming dragon, but so powerful was the attack that the golden dragon shredded Michaux's defense and blew the young master away.
The giant dragon continued soaring higher until it blended into the starry sky.
”Kom!”
The entire arena trembled, and suddenly the floor caved in. When the dust finally settled, the stage had turned into ruins.
Wang Tong held Ma Xiaoru in his arms and shouted, ”Are you out of your mind? Why did you come so close?”
In the distance, Li Shiming paused before he could reach Ma Xiaoru. His eyes glinted as he felt something was amiss.
Losing control of his body, Michaux was about to thud onto the ground, but was rescued by Lie Jian. If Michaux fell from such height, he would be gravely injured. Nevertheless, when Lie Jian looked down on Michaux's face, he noticed the young master was unconscious.
