C49 Lunatic

"Alright, let's see what this self-proclaimed genius can do." Wu Hui showed no fear, and an equally strong aura was emitted from his body. In terms of aura, he was not one bit inferior to Wu Zejun.

"How is this possible? How can Wu Hui have such a powerful aura?" In the instant that Wu Hui's aura surged, the surrounding people were all shocked. Just from his aura alone, Wu Hui actually was quite close to Wu Zejun. Could it be that Wu Hui's cultivation had also reached Five-star?

Wu Hua, who was standing in the crowd, felt somewhat stunned. When he sensed the aura from Wu Hui, he also felt that Wu Hui's cultivation was no longer lower than Wu Zejun. "Wait. Although the aura from Wu Hui's body is strong, his real cultivation is only at the Two-star level. But I'm afraid that he will soon reach Three-star." After evaluating Wu Hui's cultivation carefully, Wu Hua's shock slowly weakened. He could tell that Wu Hui's true cultivation had yet to reach Three-star. The strong aura coming from his body should be related to the cultivation method he took to acquire his martial skills. Wu Zejun, who was standing opposite to Wu Hui, similarly felt that Wu Hui did not lose to him in terms of aura, and his face revealed extreme shock. He thought to himself: “What level of cultivation is Wu Hui at right now? How can he have such a strong aura? Although the intensity of one’s aura does not entirely depend on the level of his cultivation, it is directly related to the intensity of the Martial qi in his body. This means that the intensity of the Martial qi in Wu Hui's body now is not inferior to me at all."

The contempt in Wu Zejun’s gaze now had already been replaced by shock. He thought of the trial among the disciples of the clan a month ago, when Wu Hui had not yet broken through to the Profound Grade and was just a piece of trash in his opinion, so Wu Zejun did not have the least interest to pick on him. However unexpectedly, in just one month, Wu Hui now had the ability to fight against him. Could it be that the gifted youth from seven years ago had returned?

Though shocked, Wu Zejun did not believe that Wu Hui now had the cultivation as intense as his. Wu Zejun was now at Five-star of Profound Grade, how could Wu Hui catch up with the gap of five stars within just one month? No matter how talented he was, it would be impossible, even for the Heaven’s Pride Girl Su Qingxue.

"Hmph, I don't know why your aura is so strong. But your cultivation, in my opinion, is only around the level of Two-star. If you want to defeat me, you still have a long way to go."

Wu Zejun let out a cold snort. And with a flash, he had already gotten close to Wu Hui. With a palm strike, a golden light flashed.

"Golden Sword Palm!" With a low growl, Wu Zejun's palm pounced straight towards Wu Hui's chest.

"Golden Sword Palm! A medium martial skill of Yellow Grade!" Wu Hui's gaze sharpened as he recognized the martial skill Wu Zejun was using. It was the exact same martial skill Wu Zejun had used when he had clashed with Su Qingxue back then in the Wu family hall. At that time, when Wu Zejun used the Golden Sword Palm, he did not even manage to touch Su Qingxue's clothes, and was kicked away by Su Qingxue instead. The level of the martial skill had no role to play when the gap in strength was so wide.

But to Wu Hui, Wu Zejun's Golden Sword Palm was still quite powerful, and the yellow light released by it was dazzling and sharp - it was the state of a Level Two Golden Sword Palm. Wu Zejun had already cultivated the Golden Sword Palm to Level Two, which meant it was even more powerful than in the Wu family hall that day.

Facing Wu Zejun's vicious palm, Wu Hui was not afraid at all. He drove the Five Elements Arts rapidly and the Wood Martial Qi converged onto Wu Hui's fists along a specific route.

"Green Wood Fist!" With a low growl, a towering ancient tree was materialized in front of everyone's shocked eyes. The tree was sturdy and tall, as though it was real, and it directly smashed towards Wu Zejun.

"Level Three Green Wood Fist!" The crowd could not help but exclaim out loud, looking at Wu Hui with shocked eyes. Some of the disciples had seen some clan elders use a Level Three Green Wood Fist, which was to create a towering ancient tree to attack the opponent. It was extremely powerful.

The appearance of the tree did astonish Wu Zejun. There was a pause for a second in his pouncing towards Wu Hui and he appeared to be a bit hesitant from his look. He did not think that Wu Hui had already cultivated the Green Wood Fist to Level Three, which was simply unbelievable. In the Wu Family, even if some disciple with wood attribute chose to cultivate the Green Wood Fist, it would be impossible to acquire Level Three before reaching the Earth Grade. But it had been done by someone who was considered as a piece of trash! How could Wu Zejun not be shocked? If he could successfully manage the Level Three Green Wood Fist, the intensity of Wu Hui’s Martial qi would not be inferior to his. Wu Zejun was puzzled - what Wu Hui had done was merely activating the secondary fire attribute when breaking through to the Profound Grade, how could he become so strong?

But at this moment, Wu Zejun knew that there was no point in overthinking. If he lost to Wu Hui today, not only would it be a matter of losing a pill, but his status in the Wu Family would also plummet and his reputation would be severely damaged in the future.

"Hmph, I never thought that you could really acquire Level Three Green Wood Fist. That’s something. But Golden Sword Palm of Medium Yellow Grade is not inferior to it. If you want to defeat me, it won't be that easy." Wu Zejun's face revealed a trace of malevolence, the yellow light in his palm shone bright again, directly striking at the ancient wood in front of him.

Splash!

With a huge sound, both of them were forced to take few steps back from each other. Wu Zejun couldn't help but retreat five or six steps back before he could stop himself. His inner qi rolled haphazardly due to the impact. He forced himself to calm inside, which caused his face to turn red and white. He stared into the front in a vicious manner, only to see that Wu Hui had retreated about ten steps and the tree had disappeared. Wu Hui had somewhat lost the temper of his breath. He was looking at his fist and had fallen into deep thoughts.

"Hmph, Wu Hui, aren’t you going to give me some advice? Is this all you’ve got?” Seeing Wu Hui's stunned look, Wu Zejun laughed out loud. He’s in an exceptionally good mood.

Without noticing the ridicule from Wu Zejun, Wu Hui was thinking about what had just happened. According to his knowledge, his Level Three Green Wood Fist should not be inferior to Wu Ze’s Level Two Golden Sword Palm. But when their martial skills clashed against each other, Wu Hui could feel that his Green Wood Fist was at a disadvantage, as though it was being suppressed by the Golden Sword Palm.

"What's going on?" Wu Hui couldn't think of an answer at the moment. It was as if the key was there beside his hand but he couldn’t grab hold of it. Wu Hui clenched his fist, starting to materialize the ancient tree. He could feel the power in his fists. Wu Hui looked at Wu Zejun and shouted. “One more time!”

Wu Hui took the initiative and rushed forward.

"Maniac." Wu Zejun was still regulating the rolling qi in his body. But before he could calm it down, he heard the words from Wu Hui. For a moment, his was so bothered that he couldn’t help but curse, “Wu Hui, don't think that I am the same as Wu Kai. I will take all of your attacks today." The sharp yellow light flashed past again, landing on Wu Hui's materialized ancient wood.

This time, Wu Hui could carefully sense the metal martial skill used by his opponent. When it came into contact with his fist, the sharpness of its qi unscrupulously destroyed that of the ancient wood he had created, and unexpectedly, the qi of the ancient tree could not resist for a moment. Wu Hui felt as if his fist was slashed by a blade, and was in extreme pain. However, the Five Elements Arts in Wu Hui's body continued to circulate and the Wood Martial Qi continued to nourish his skin and meridian channels. So the damage caused by the opponent could nearly be ignored.

Seemingly, it was a tie between Wu Hui and Wu Zejun. But Wu Hui knew in his heart that in the last two rounds of direct confrontation, he was at a disadvantage. If not for his body of five elements being so powerful, he would have been injured.

Although Wu Hui was not satisfied with the power of his Green Wood Fist, but to the surrounding crowd, it was shockingly amazing. They had not anticipated that Wu Hui could truly fight with the genius disciple Wu Zejun to a draw. This time, they looked at Wu Hui with true reverence. In just one month, he had grew from a trash to the level of a genius. If they had not seen this with their own eyes, they would never believe it.

In the crowd, Wu Yong and Wu Kai's faces were pale white. They stared blankly at the calm cyan-robed youth, and their eyes were filled with deep fear and dread. "Heavens! What kind of monster is this? Why did I pick on him back then?"

“Cousin Wu Kai, which one of them do you think is more powerful?” Wu Yong's gaze shrunk as he asked Wu Kai with a trembling voice.

Wu Kai recalled what Wu Zejun had told him before - "Don't mess with Wu Hui". Only now did he understand the meaning of those words. With Wu Hui's talent, his future achievements were unpredictable. The funny thing was that even though Wu Zejun had said so, he still messed with Wu Hui. Although in the current situation, it looked like they were on a tie, and Wu Zejun seemed to have a slight advantage. But with Wu Hui's abnormal cultivation speed, it would only be a short period of time before he could catch up with Wu Zejun.

Wu Kai suddenly regretted making enemies with Wu Hui. Turning his head, Wu Kai looked at Wu Yong with a serious gaze. His voice carried a hint of coldness: "Wu Yong, as your cousin, I will give you a piece of advice. We definitely cannot offend Wu Hui again, never. Do you hear me? "

Seeing Wu Kai's expression, Wu Yong shrunk his neck and nodded. Without Wu Kai needing to say anything, Wu Yong knew that the current Wu Hui was way above his level, and even some distance above Wu Kai’s. He was now among the ranks of the clan's most talented disciples. Just thinking about how he fought to a draw with Wu Zejun who was at Five-star and fought head-on with Wu Hua who was at Seven-Star had made Wu Yong tremble.

Nearby, Wu Hua was watching the confrontation between Wu Hui and Wu Zejun with a gloomy face. He had not expected that Wu Hui's strength could increase yet again, to the extent where he was comparable to Wu Zejun. Wu Zejun's cultivation was at the peak of Five-star, and he had raised his Medium Yellow Grade Martial Skill - the Golden Sword Palm to the Level Two. Wu Zejun was now quite powerful - if he wanted to defeat Wu Zejun, it would not be easy. But what he had not expected was that Wu Zejun would actually be unable to defeat Wu Hui. Judging from the situation, although Wu Zejun had some advantages, but these could not lead to his winning of the fight. It looked like that they were going to end up in a draw.

"Five Elements Arts. The five elements generate one another. The five elements destroy one another. When they generate one another, they cultivate their own attributes as well. When they destroy one another, they overcome their enemy in together. The generation and destruction work in circle and will never cease.” After a second deep thought, an idea flashed through Wu Hui’s mind. He remembered a saying in the Five Elements Arts - “The five elements generate and destroy one another”. Wu Zejun’s physique was of metal attribute and he cultivated metal martial skills. In terms of the relation between the five elements, metal overcame wood - which was the attribute of his martial skill. Thinking of this, Wu Hui's heart immediately brightened up. He raised his head to look at Wu Zejun, with his eyes burning with passion.
