War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Hong Jun was among the top five Ten Stars students in the Hidden Fog Academy. He was a descendant of the Hong clan, a small clan that was under the control of a king-rank force in Skywind City. For this reason, despite his strength, he did not dare to provoke the others with better backgrounds who were occupying the prominent-grade courtyards. After all, who knew if he would cause disaster to befall his clan as well if he provoked those people. He naturally did not wish for anything to happen to his clan; they had carefully cultivated him since he was young. Most importantly, he was the Second Young Master of the Hong clan, the second son of the Clan Leader of the Hong clan. For all these reasons, he did not dare to act selfishly and put his clan at risk.

Since Hong Jun did not dare to offend those with strong backgrounds who were occupying the prominent-grade courtyards and he was not a match for the one occupant of the prominent-grade courtyard who did not rely on his background to occupy the courtyard, he could only stay in a mediocre-grade courtyard.

Due to his helplessness, Hong Jun was filled with discontentment and frustrations.

Hong Jun was in the midst of comprehending the law of water earlier when he received Yuan Lei’s message. He was intrigued when he heard about the newcomer who had yet to turn 2,800 years old but had already comprehended four double Fused Profundities from the law of space. Apart from that, the newcomer had also defeated Ding Yan with a single strike.

Since Yuan Lei favored Ding Yan, Hong Jun was naturally acquainted with Ding Yan and was familiar with Ding Yan’s strength. Moreover, Ding Yan was among the strongest among those who occupied the primitive-grade courtyards. Once Ding Yan improved, he would be able to move to a mediocre-grade courtyard as well.

At this moment, Hong Jun said expressionlessly, “I don’t like long battles so attack with all your might.”

Yuan Lei who was standing next to Hong Jun moved to stand next to Chu Feng Yang before he asked with a smile that carried traces of disdain, “Teacher Chu, do you still think Duan Ling Tian will win?”

“Why? Do you want to bet with me?” Chu Feng Yang asked in return as he glanced at Yuan Lei.

Yuan Lei narrowed his eyes upon hearing Chu Feng Yang’s words. “Teacher Chu, does this mean you are betting Duan Ling Tian will win this challenge?”

“Yes. However, I’m afraid you don’t dare to make a bet with me,” Chu Yang Feng replied with a smile.

Yuan Lei hesitated. He did not dare to act rashly when he saw the smile on Chu Feng Yang’s face. As a teacher of the Hidden Fog Academy and an elder of the Hidden Fog Sect, he naturally would not act recklessly. Moreover, he knew the person in charge of the Ten Stars assessment was Yun Hui, Chu Feng Yang’s junior uncle.

After a brief moment, Yuan Lei asked pointedly, “It seems like Elder Yun Hui has mentioned Duan Ling Tian’s strength to you…”

“Teacher Yuan, you’re really wise,” Chu Feng Yang replied tonelessly.

Yuan Lei narrowed his eyes as he looked at the purple-clad figure standing in the distance. He wondered inwardly, ‘Is he really capable of defeating Hong Jun?’

In fact, the other four strongest Ten Stars students could not even defeat Hong Jun and could only fight to a draw with him. In other words, if Duan Ling Tian managed to defeat Hong Jun, Duan Ling Tian would become the strongest Ten Stars student in the Hidden Fog Academy.

“Attack with all my might?” Duan Ling Tian smiled faintly. “Why don’t you make the first move? I’d like to see you attack with all your might as well…”

“As you wish!” As soon as Hong Jun’s voice fell, a blue energy surged from his body. As the energy churned around him, they cast a blue light on him.

“I command the waves to rise!”

As the blue energy surged and churned, a dark blue energy suddenly shot out and fused with the churning blue energy that looked like a tsunami. With that, the strength of the tsunami-like energy rose tremendously.

“It’s the Tsunami Vein!” one of the Ten Stars students exclaimed.

The number of students who came to spectate the battle had grown bigger. They were not surprised when Hong Jun told Duan Ling Tian to attack with all his might. After all, in the past, one of the top five strongest Ten Stars students had held back while fighting Hong Jun. As a result, he was nearly defeated by Hong Jun. Fortunately, he managed to unleash all his strength at the critical moment and fought to a draw with Hong Jun.

“Senior Brother Hong Jun is still the same. He’s going to attack with his four double Fused Profundity after he uses his bloodline power, the Tsunami Vein.”

“Senior Brother Hong Jun’s strength is comparable to an intermediate god who has a triple Fused Profundity. If Duan Ling Tian didn’t hide his strength earlier, there’s no way Duan Ling Tian will be able to defeat Senior Brother Hong Jun.”

“Nonetheless, Duan Ling Tian would still cause an uproar in the academy even if he only manages to fight to a draw with Senior Brother Hong Jun!”

The students and teachers eyes shone with anticipation as Hong Jun attacked with all his might,

Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian’s Divine Energy that had been imbued with the Space Elemental Profundity began to soar. As the spatial energy appeared, the void began to ripple and twist causing Duan Ling Tian to look distorted.

All of a sudden, nine spatial tears appeared in the void above Duan Ling Tian. Nine sword rays from the Cross-Dimensional Slash Profundity appeared, ready to shoot toward Hong Jun.

The spectators held their breaths as the two opponents were about to collide.

“If you’re capable of blocking my attack, it’ll be considered as your win. I’ll challenge another person who occupies a mediocre-grade courtyard,” Duan Ling Tian said at this moment.

Duan Ling Tian’s domineering words naturally shocked the spectators. Even Chu Feng Yang was shocked. Although Yun Hui had told him that Duan Ling Tian was the strongest among the present Ten Stars students, he did not expect Duan Ling Tian was able to defeat Hong Jun with a strike, as Duan Ling Tian had just implied. After all, Hong Jun was one of the strongest Ten Stars students in the Hidden Fog Academy.

“Ridiculous!” Hong Jun roared.

Duan Ling Tian had successfully provoked the usually taciturn and aloof student.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The tsunami-like energy swept out toward Duan Ling Tian, causing the void to distort in its wake. Some of the students even had to retreat to avoid the backlash.

On the contrary, Duan Ling Tian remained calm. He did not move at all. When Hong Jun’s attack traveled halfway out, he finally waved his hand casually. An ear-piercing buzzing noise rang in the air as spatial energy swept out and the nine sword rays shot out.

Some students with weaker cultivation bases were even bleeding from their eardrums, injured by the buzzing noise. Upon seeing this, many people hurriedly activated their energy to protect themselves.

Yuan Lei was dumbfounded when he saw this. “How’s this possible?!”

The other teachers were in shock as well.

Chu Feng Yang who tried to remain calm outwardly was no exception. Nevertheless, his eyelids and the corners of his lips could not help but twitch.

‘Junior uncle didn’t tell me his comprehension of the law alone is so strong…’
