930 One Versus Three

The spear was also known as the king of melee weapons!

The general that was famous for defeating big groups of pirates, Qi Jiguang mentioned the usefulness of the spear in his book, New Treatise on Military Efficiency. He said that spear was an unpredictable melee weapon; it could charge at the enemy with extreme speed and be withdrawn to the wielder's liking. It gave a person a sense of good protection when the person did not wield the spear. However, the moment the person wields the spear—all the enemies shall tremble before him!

The way Xiangyu wielded his spear had managed to fully utilize it. He gained the experienced of wielding spear from when he was involved in the war during ancient times. During that time, the reason why he wielded the spear was to shed blood! It did not require fancy or complicated moves. Xiangyu was the master at using spears to slaughter enemies. He summarized the ways to master wielding spears into three simple words—shatter, drag, and arc!

Right now, the technique that he was using was called shatter! What he needed to do was gather all his strength at the sharpest point of the spear and swung at his enemies with all his might.

Bam!

The golden True Qi that gathered at the top of the spear consisted Xiangyu's most powerful might and it came in contact with one of Su Dongruo's Ifrit's Claw!

70,000 combat power versus 70,000 combat power!

Logically speaking, Su Dongruo should have more knowledge and experience about manipulating the fire element. According to the law of nature, the fire element was supposed to overpower the gold element. Even if Su Dongruo failed to defeat Xiangyu with it, he should be able to gain the upper hand of the fight!

But!

Along with the loud noise, Su Dongruo's Ifrit's Claw was destroyed by Xiangyu's spear. Immediately, Su Dongruo was forced to take a couple steps back. As for Xiangyu, he was still standing his ground, unmoving.

"How is that even possible?"

Su Dongruo had his eyes wide open, he did not expect that he failed to suppress Xiangyu with his power.

"What the hell is going on? How did Xiangyu manage to suppress Grand Elder Su?"

At the same time, Yue Changkong and Zhuang Bihuang were embarrassed by the thing that they just commented on their battle. Seconds ago, both of them assumed that Xiangyu would definitely be defeated by Su Dongruo. Now, the two of them were being slapped by the fact that Xiangyu actually managed to gain the upper hand in the battle. The most frustrating part for them was they could not understand how in the world did Xiangyu managed to suppress Su Dongruo with his strength.

"One has to practice a lot to master the art of wielding spear! Xiangyu had gone through hundreds of battles, the spear had become part of his body! Though Xiangyu might look young from the surface, the knowledge that he has on Golden celestial phenomenon has surpassed Su Dongruo after living for a long time in this world!"

"Lastly, the Obsidian Spear in his hand is why he can defeat Su Dongruo with ease!"

Upon hearing that, everyone placed their attention on the powerful Obsidian Spear that Xiangyu was holding.

"I remember that! Chen Xiaobei once said that it is a True Combat Spear! It was made with Obsidian Golden Enigmatic Metal! And it is a Spiritual Item! Its weight is 8,100 pounds! Because of its sharp head—those who hit by it will definitely lose their lives! Its weight is powerful enough to generate a huge amount of force to send someone to hell as well!" said Murong Xiaoyao.

"That's right! The special ability of this True Combat Spear is its terrifying destructive power! Xiangyu, himself has 70,000 combat power. With the help of the spear, he can easily boost his combat power to 73,000! And that was how he defeated Su Dongruo!" said Jiang Ziya.

"73,000 combat power! That's extremely powerful! It was no wonder that he managed to suppress Su Dongruo!" said Tai Yitan in an exciting manner.

"Don't let the joy blinds you! Xiangyu is powerful but his enemy was just as powerful! Judging from how they charge at the Thunder Pool Formation just now, I can roughly estimate that Zhuang Bihuang combat power is 70,000 and Yue Changkong's combat power is at least 73,000! It will be extremely difficult for Xiangyu to fight with all three of them at the same time!" said Zhao Ritian with his eyes narrowed.

"That's right! Now we can only hope that Faction Leader Chen will wake up in time and save us! If he doesn't wake up in time, Xiangyu will definitely be defeated by them!" said Jiang Ziya while nodding.

Upon hearing that, the members of Bei Xuan Faction went back to serious mode once again. After all, they all had spent some time in Jianghu, they knew that it was almost impossible for a person to defeat three persons when they all were equally powerful!

"Faction Leader Yue! What are you waiting for? Call Grand Elder Zhuang together to strike him!" shouted Su Dongruo in a hysterical manner.

Knowing that he would never be able to defeat Xiangyu, he shamelessly went and ask for help from Yue Changkong and Zhuang Bihuang to attack Xiangyu together.

"Alright! Let's attack him together!"

Yue Changkong and Zhuang Bihuang were not exactly the men of honor. The hidden rule of Jianghu was nothing to them! When it came to things that could benefit that, they would do whatever it takes to achieve their goals.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Immediately, the three of them started to trigger their signature celestial phenomenon to attack Xiangyu. Yue Changkong manipulated hundreds of swords behind him into a dragon to attack Xiangyu. Its terrifying force was not to be messed around.

On the other hand, Su Dongruo came up with all his strength to form Ifrit's Claw again. This time its power was boosted by at least 30%. Lastly, Zhuang Bihuang did not dare to let his guard down. Immediately, he summoned a giant hand that was made of soil. Everyone could feel a minute tremble when he triggered his celestial phenomenon!

It was quite a scene when all three of them attacked Xiangyu at the same time.

"Three of you attacking me at the same time? Heh! This is exactly what I wanted!"

Immediately, Xiangyu turned around and fled. While he was running, he drove his spear into the ground forming a large ditch.

"What happened? Afraid of us? I have to say that running away is a smart move! However, we will never let you flee from us!" said Yue Changkong.

"Let's charge at him from three different directions! We can never let him run away!"

Zhuang Bihuang shouted and charged at Xiangyu from the right side.

"You coward! You thought you can defeat us easily right? Why are you running away from us?! I dare you to stand where you are right now! Let me teach you how to spell the word, death!"

It was apparent that Su Dongruo hated Xiangyu a lot. He charged at Xiangyu from the left side. He would never let Xiangyu escape from him no matter what.

"Who told you that I'm running away? I learnted this drag technique when I was riding a horse to run away from my enemies! It's super effective against people like you!" said Xiangyu.

"What?!"

Upon hearing that, the three elite with Celestial cultivation were taken aback. They thought they could surround Xiangyu and defeat him. To their surprise, Xiangyu was actually trying to come up with one of his skill to defeat them.

"The technique, drag is best used against enemies that come after me! It's also known as back thrust!"

Suddenly, Xiangyu let out a loud shout, turned around, and thrust Yue Changkong after channeling enough force to his spear.

Drag!

Retreat for the sake of advancing!
