Chapter 248: Duel of Two Dragons
After exchanging a few words, the final battle finally began with the referee's announcement.
At this moment, Yu Tianxin had already completed Martial Soul Possession. Blue-purple serpentine currents continuously coiled around his body. What stood out the most were his arms, which were covered in blue-purple dragon scales. They had also grown thicker and stronger, while 4 Spirit Rings, 2 yellow and 2 purple, swirled around him.
Well, everything looked normal.
A normal Spirit Master's Spirit Ring configuration. A normal Spirit Master's dual-arm dragon transformation. He was a standard Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit Master.
If Yu Tianxin were facing someone else, that would actually have been enough. After all, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul was extremely powerful, known as the number 1 offensive Beast Martial Soul in the world, and it feared no one.
But if the opponent was Yu Tianlin, then it was far from enough.
Both possessed the same Martial Soul, but Yu Tianlin had higher Spirit Power, a deeper level of dragon transformation, and a better Spirit Ring configuration. Yu Tianxin had no advantage over Yu Tianlin in any aspect. Under normal circumstances, there was no real suspense in a fight between them.
It was only because Yu Tianlin had been "worn down" through the previous battles that Yu Tianxin could glimpse a sliver of hope for victory.
Seeing that Yu Tianxin was ready, Yu Tianlin remained calm. He neither released his Martial Soul nor entered a dragon transformation state. Still, Yu Tianlin was not so arrogant as to do nothing at all. He directly used his self-created Spirit Skill, [Thunder Dragon Armor]. His entire body was wrapped in dazzling lightning, greatly boosting his attack, defense, and speed.
After a brief standoff, Yu Tianxin let out a low roar and launched the first attack. With serpentine electricity surging around him, he rushed straight at Yu Tianlin.
As a powerful offensive Spirit Master with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul, Yu Tianxin believed in overwhelming offense. He had no interest in tricks or feints. He charged straight in and intended to end things head-on.
As he closed in, the yellow Spirit Ring around Yu Tianxin's right dragon arm suddenly lit up brightly. Then the serpentine electricity around his body rapidly flowed toward his hands, quickly condensing into 2 lightning claws over his dragon-transformed palms.
Clearly it was only a 100-year Spirit Skill, yet the pressure it gave off was comparable to a thousand-year skill. This was the strength of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.
The 1st Spirit Skill, [Thunder Dragon Claw], combined with dual-arm dragon transformation, possessed astonishing destructive power.
With his Spirit Skill amplifying his attack, Yu Tianxin rushed in front of Yu Tianlin without any mercy and slashed down with both dragon claws.
Facing his imposing cousin, Yu Tianlin neither retreated nor dodged. He met him head-on with force against force.
In a clash between offensive types, the one who backed down first was practically already defeated. Even if Yu Tianlin had been weaker, let alone stronger, he would never have chosen to retreat.
Boom!
The next moment, Yu Tianlin's hand, wrapped in [Thunder Dragon Armor], violently collided with Yu Tianxin's lightning-enhanced dragon claw, producing a deafening explosion. Then one figure, entwined with electric snakes, was sent flying backward, while the other figure, cloaked in lightning, remained standing exactly where he was.
It was obvious that Yu Tianxin had been driven back, while Yu Tianlin had not moved at all.
In this collision, Yu Tianlin had the upper hand.
"So strong!" After stabilizing his retreating body, shock flashed across Yu Tianxin's eyes.
He had seen Yu Tianlin use this self-created Spirit Skill, [Thunder Dragon Armor], during Thunder Academy's battle against Elephant Armor Academy. But he had not expected Yu Tianlin's self-created Spirit Skill to be this powerful. Even his own dual-arm dragon transformation plus [Thunder Dragon Claw] could not match it at all.
And that was not all.
Yu Tianxin looked at his dragon-transformed palms and discovered that the dragon scales on them, which should have been blue-purple, had turned somewhat scorched black.
Those were burn marks from the lightning.
In that fierce exchange, Yu Tianlin's lightning had actually broken through Yu Tianxin's [Thunder Dragon Claw] and even affected his dragon scales. In other words, although both of them were lightning-attribute, Yu Tianlin's lightning power was far stronger than Yu Tianxin's.
"Brother Tianxin, use [Thunderous Fury]." Yu Tianlin stood where he was and quietly watched his cousin retreat. "Otherwise, you're not my match at all."
"Hmph!"
Although Yu Tianlin's words sounded arrogant, Yu Tianxin knew they were true, so he did not argue. He simply snorted and activated his 3rd Spirit Skill, [Thunderous Fury], without hesitation. His lightning power and Spirit Power were both increased by 100 percent.
Although it was the same skill, Yu Tianlin's was a 10,000-year Spirit Skill, while Yu Tianxin's was only a thousand-year one, so the degree of enhancement was naturally lower. Even so, it was still extremely powerful and fully displayed the might of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul.
As the skill was released, the electric currents that had previously crawled across Yu Tianxin's body like small snakes suddenly solidified, transforming into a layer of lightning armor that covered him. His dragon claws also swelled again, becoming even more ferocious, while the slightly scorched marks on his dragon scales vanished completely.
Having used a powerful body-amplifying Spirit Skill, Yu Tianxin's aura rose drastically. He immediately pushed his Spirit Power to the limit and then unleashed his 2nd Spirit Skill as well.
[Thunderous Power]!
Since the strength of both lightning and Spirit Power had been greatly amplified, of course this was the best moment to make full use of it. Now was the perfect time to activate the 2nd Spirit Skill.
Countless blue-purple lightning arrows condensed around Yu Tianxin, then shot toward Yu Tianlin in the distance.
Although it was only a 100-year Spirit Skill, it was being released under the enhancement of a thousand-year amplifying Spirit Skill, so its power was quite astonishing. Countless blue-purple lightning arrows crossed half the arena, and the huge Spirit Power fluctuations they emitted caused many people outside the arena to change expressions.
Yu Tianxin wanted to prove to everyone that among the younger generation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, aside from the monstrous Yu Tianlin and the genius Yu Tianheng, he, Yu Tianxin, was also absolutely not someone to be overlooked!
"Clan Master Yu, your clan truly has no shortage of talented people."
In the VIP section, after seeing Yu Tianxin's outburst, Ning Fengzhi could not help but sigh enviously toward Yu Yuanzhen, who sat not far away, "I am truly envious."
"Clan Master Ning, you flatter me." Yu Yuanzhen simply smiled and said, "They are all still children, too young. It will take at least another 20 years before they truly grow up."
Hearing Yu Yuanzhen say that, Ning Fengzhi felt a little better.
A genius was still only a genius, not a true powerhouse. If one really compared the strength of top experts, Ning Fengzhi was confident that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan was still much stronger than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Still, this battle had also served as a wake-up call for Ning Fengzhi. It made him even more determined that in the coming period, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan also had to place greater emphasis on nurturing the younger generation.
