Myth Beyond Heaven

"Hey. I don't think it is your duty to teach him. What he wants to do has nothing to do with you. Besides, he's a sword practitioner. If he's being restrained, how could he walk further in the path of the sword?" Chi Xiong leaned against his broadsword and said calmly. He was genuinely treated by Yang Chen as a worthy opponent. He felt uncomfortable seeing the latter get scolded by Yun Lintian like a kid.

Yun Lintian glanced at him and said. "Of course, I'm not his father and have no duty to teach him. However, as a friend and someone he owed his life to, I don't want him to throw his life that I am painstakingly saving it away in such a useless way."

Yang Chen's body trembled slightly when he heard this. That was right. Yun Lintian had tried to save his life so many times, yet he kept throwing his life away. This made him realize how shameful and stupid he was.

Chi Xiong's brows knitted together in puzzlement. He didn't expect the relationship between them would be like this. From the information he got, he only knew that they were good friends and nothing more than that.

  He took a deep look at Yun Lintian and said. "Since you've ruined my battle with him, shouldn't you compensate me?" Without waiting for Yun Lintian to respond, he said further. "How about you come up and fight me?"

The hell? Have I avoided the cliche situation earlier just to meet a new one? Yun Lintian said inwardly. He sighed and said. "Are you sure you want to fight me? You should know that your Master, the surname Wang, didn't even dare to fight me."

Since Yun Lintian couldn't avoid it further, he might as well fight it this time.

Chi Xiong's face turned gloomy as he said. "He is not my master… Come here if you have the gut."

"Brother Yun…" Yang Chen raised his head and wanted to say something. However, he was immediately interrupted by Yun Lintian.

"Stay here and watch how I beat him." Yun Lintian said and jumped onto the platform.

The crowd immediately became excited when seeing this. Were they going to see the famous Yun Lintian fight this time? Before this, they heard a lot about Yun Lintian's legendary deeds, but they remained skeptical. Coupled with the recent news about him cheating on the Forest Maze, they didn't believe Yun Lintian's strength was great as people claimed previously.

"Come." Yun Lintian said while beckoning Chi Xiong to attack with his finger.

Chi Xiong's eyes narrowed, releasing killing intent. He grabbed his broadsword and stomped on the ground, rushing at Yun Lintian at full speed. 

Even though his body was enormous, his speed wasn't low at all. In a split second, he had already arrived before Yun Lintian and swung his giant broadsword down at the latter's head.

Bang!

Everyone had imagined Yun Lintian being crushed under the Chi Xiong's strike, but the reality was entirely different. When they regained their sense, they immediately saw Chi Xiong fly away like a cannonball before falling heavily on the ground. Meanwhile, Yun Lintian stood calmly in his position without moving an inch.

The academy elders nearby glanced at each other in shock. These students might not see it, but they could vaguely see many things that happened earlier. 

The moment Chi Xiong swung his broadsword down, Yun Lintian suddenly transformed into a shadowy figure, moving to Chi Xiong's side, and struck out a punch before returning to his position. This insanely swift movement technique was utterly beyond the academy elders' comprehension.

"It seems the rumors are true. His movement technique isn't something we can understand. I wonder which hidden family did he come from?" One of the academy elders said in amazement. Everyone also had the same question as him.

Below the platform, Fei Mao's mouth widened open in shock. Although he was aware Yun Lintian was strong, the move Yun Lintian displayed earlier was obviously out of his expectation. At this moment, he realized how wise Wen Xing was to make that decision. Otherwise, Wen Xing wouldn't even know how he died.

Meanwhile, Yang Chen stared at Yun Lintian with admiration. At the same time, he had realized there was a terribly huge gap between Yun Lintian and him. His hands subconsciously clenched into fists as he vowed to get stronger in his heart.

Chi Xiong got up from the ground with difficulty. Currently, a storm was set in his heart as he was extremely shocked by Yun Lintian's strength. 

One had to know he had the Earth Shaking Bear bloodline, which was regarded as one of the strongest in terms of physiques, yet Yun Lintian's simple punch could send him away at ease. What did it mean? It meant Yun Lintian's physique was even stronger than his!… How could it be?

"Are you ready? I'm going to make another attack now." Yun Lintian said calmly.

His words immediately brought Chi Xiong back to his sense. Humiliated feeling gradually rose in Chi Xiong's heart. From young to the present, he had never felt like this before.

Chi Xiong tightly grabbed his broadsword, and all of his muscles instantly bulged up. His entire body gradually turned brown, and fuzzy hairs grew out of his skin crazily. His current appearance was akin to a grizzly bear.

"Roar!" Chi Xiong let out a furious roar. As he flashed forward, the howling of a savage storm resounded intensely, accompanied by horrible pressure rushing toward Yun Lintian.

"What creature is that!?" The students exclaimed in shock when they saw Chi Xiong's appearance. They had never seen this kind of transformation before.

Facing this terrifying force, Yun Lintian stood rooted to the ground and didn't move at all, as though he had been struck dumb with shock. As Chi Xiong's giant body approached, Yun Lintian suddenly let out a loud shout and stuck his fist forward at Chi Xiong.

"Idiot!" This word popped up in the students' minds upon seeing Yun Lintian's action. This time they could obviously see Yun Lintian didn't even use any profound energy. How could he suppose to crash head-on with a truck-like Chi Xiong?

Seeing Yun Lintian's fist coming, Chi Xiong sneered and ruthlessly cleaved his broadsword at the opponent. He admitted Yun Lintian's body was strong; he believed there was no way Yun Lintian could handle this attack.

Roar—

Before Chi Xiong's broadsword could touch Yun Lintian, the latter's fist abruptly transformed into a virtual fire dragon, followed by a mighty dragon's cry reverberated throughout the entire arena.
