Chapter 341: Yang Ma vs Wan Li
Chapter 341: Yang Ma vs Wan Li
The disciple from the Royal Fu academy that had the next match after Du Yuhan wasn’t very happy seeing him take the limelight. So, when he fought against his Honor sect opponent, He showed off his impressive 4th Mind Tempering realm cultivation base, as well as revealing the fact that he too had Sword Intent as well.
Seeing this, the audience was beyond excited to see a match between two weapon intent user in just the Quarter Finals.
After the Royal Fu Academy disciple won, it was time for the next match.
Yang Ma and Wan Li came out of the waiting area and entered the stage. They both went to the opposite ends and waited for the match to start.
Wan Li took out his sword in preparation, while Yang Ma took out his spear. They were both planning on giving it their all from the start.
“Who do you think will win?” Wen Cheng asked Alex.
Alex wasn’t expecting such a question so he thought for a little bit. Both the fighters were his fellow sect members, but it was clear who Alex liked more.
“Brother Wan Li has a higher cultivation base, but Brother Ma should have more fighting experience amongst the two. Brother Ma also has superior Fire elemental roots, so as much as I like brother Wan Li, I will have to go with Brother Ma,” Alex said.
“Good analysis. Now, let’s see how close your theory stacks up with the actual thing,” Wen Cheng said and looked back on the stage.
“BEGIN!”
Wan Li let no time go wasted and immediately launched a fire slash towards Yang Ma. Yang Ma sent a red slash of his own to stop the attack.
A small explosion rang out as the attacks collided and destroyed each other. Wan Li had the better Qi Density and amount, but Yang Ma had the higher Elemental strength, so the damage they dealt was almost equal.
Yang Ma smiled when he saw that. ‘An alchemist wants to win against me? Keep wishing,’ he thought and sent out a fireball towards Wan Li.
Wan Li also threw out a fireball of his own.
BOOM
Smoke filled the stage from the collision of these two fireballs and Yang Ma took the opportunity to throw in more fireballs and red slashes towards Wan Li.
Multiple explosions rang out in succession. More dust and smoke rose up covering the whole stage in it. Yang Ma relaxed and said, “It should be over right?”
Just then, a stone flew directly at him and nearly hit his head. Yang Ma managed to react in time and hit the stone away with his spear.
“What the hell?” he looked towards the settling dust and smoke. Behind it, he could see a silhouette of something square. When it finally became clear, Yang Ma saw a large wall that was charred black because of his attacks.
“The hell? An earth wall?” he thought. Just then another stone flew towards his head from the center of the wall. He blocked that, but another came as well. And another and another.
Wan Li had opened a small hole and started sending out a barrage of stones while he himself hid behind the wall.
Yang Ma’s face contorted when he realized he hadn’t managed to deal any damage to him. “Stop hiding and come fight me,” he shouted and suddenly sent out a massive flame attack into the sky.
The fire, as if getting sentience, suddenly manifested into a massive snake and flew down towards Wan Li. Wan Li could tell that this was a strong attack, so he didn’t hesitate any further either.
He dropped the sword and placed both of his hands on the ground and out of nowhere, the ground started melting. Wan Li was putting so much fire Qi into the earth that it started turning into lava.
He then controlled the lava and threw it at the sky, towards the incoming flame snake. Not only did the lava manage to destroy the flame snake, but it was also so strong that it wasn’t phased at all and made its way towards Yang Ma.
Yang Ma looked at the incoming lava and fear showed in his eyes. “Sh*t, he has a Fire-Earth spiritual root,” he said. Without a moment’s delay, he used his movement technique and went sideways to escape the lava.
When the lava fell onto the ground, instead of freezing, it melted the ground making a pool of lava on the ground.
Huff Huff
Wan Li was a bit out of breath. Pushing so much fire Qi into the earth has left him breathless. However, when he saw Yang Ma dodge, he immediately picked up his sword and got back into the fight.
Yang Ma sent forth a red slash to catch Wan Li off guard, but Wan Li was ready. His sword started glowing brown and he slashed as well.
The energy turned into the shape of a hammer as it flew towards the incoming slash. Yang Ma expected it to cause another explosion, but instead, the hammer destroyed his slash and kept moving forth.
Yang Ma’s eyes went wide. The Earth attack was empowered by Fire Qi. Yang Ma dodged the attack once again and moved to the side.
“Why the hell do I have to keep fighting people with complimenting dual elemental roots,” he complained. Suddenly, he saw another brown attack flying towards him.
He knew he couldn’t beat it, so he started dodging and moving sideways to get out of the way of the attack. ‘Keep throwing out attacks and get tired. Then I will beat you,’ he thought.
His plan was working perfectly fine for a minute or so, but then he realized something. At some point, Wan Li had started targeting the land instead of him.
Yang Ma stopped and looked around. When he finally saw what had happened, he was shocked. All of those attacks he thought he had dodged, had actually formed lava on the ground all around him.
“Oh no.”
Wan Li suddenly gestured both of his arms upwards and the lava followed suit and devoured Yang Ma.
The referee had to interfere and stop the lava before it actually hit Yang Ma, or the result would have been disastrous. He then looked at Wan Li and announced, “You Win.”
