Chapter 30 - Chapter 30:Melee

Two identical attacks collided in mid-air. Everyone heard a loud bang as air scattered, countless powerful gusts shattered walls, and even crushed a bridge. The ground where they clashed fractured, and streams of air churned upwards before dispersing a hundred meters in the sky.

Willow looked at Lu Yin in surprise, "You can actually use the Cracking Sky Palm?"

Lu Yin's gaze was calm. He had heard Granny mention that Willow could use the Cracking Sky Palm, so he wasn't surprised by that. What surprised him was that Willow's Cracking Sky Palm seemed a little weak, because Willow's right hand was trembling at this moment, which was the consequence of forcibly using the Cracking Sky Palm.

Bailey also looked at Lu Yin in surprise. The Cracking Sky Palm was not something anyone could use. This person was not inferior to Willow.

At the same time, on the steel city wall, Zhang Ding Tian and Bai Xue simultaneously looked towards the inner city, leapt up, their eyes icy cold.

Bai Xue's eyes were filled with killing intent. The disaster caused by Heaven-level powerhouses fighting in the city was immense. These students completely disregarded the lives of Earthlings; they had to be killed.

In the inner city, Granny exclaimed, "Zhang Ding Tian has arrived, and there's also a Lust Realm power beside him."

Lu Yin didn't care. Across from them, Bailey frowned, "Quick battle, quick victory. Zhang Ding Tian is here."

Willow's eyes narrowed, his body covered in ring armor, as he leapt towards Lu Yin. He unleashed a kick, its speed imperceptible to ordinary people.

Lu Yin lifted his foot and kicked Willow's foot. The ground cracked and sank as an air wave pushed out. Willow roared, his Star Energy erupting from his body, crushing towards Lu Yin. The ground trembled. He wanted to determine the victor using pure Star Energy.

Lu Yin sneered. His internal Star Energy was certainly not as much as Willow's, but his Star Energy absorption rate was twice Willow's. Even in a battle of attrition, he wasn't afraid.

Granny rapidly retreated. She didn't want to endure this direct Star Energy clash.

In the distance, Bailey's eyes were cold as he lunged towards Granny, reaching out to grab her.

Granny gritted her teeth, crushing several Flame crystals. Swelling flames burned on the ground. "Flame Palm!" she softly shouted, her palm condensing flames as she struck at Bailey. Bailey's eyes were arrogant and cold, his movements unchanged. Granny's Flame Palm was shattered by Bailey's single strike; the difference was too great.

Granny's flames were too weak for Bailey.

Lu Yin watched as Granny was caught by Bailey, then sent out his right hand. A visible shockwave of air blasted towards Bailey. Bailey turned and shattered the Cracking Sky Palm with a punch. "Willow, go!"

Willow laughed loudly, his body swaying as he sped off into the distance, his speed increasing once again.

Lu Yin snorted, using his Floating Body Step to directly pursue Willow. He raised his palm, and a Star appeared as his palm struck. Willow's eyes changed, an inexplicable sense of crisis rushing over him. Staring at Lu Yin's palm, he dodged without hesitation. Unfortunately, the Heavenly Star Palm was not so easily dodged. The original operation of the Star contained immense suction, centering on Lu Yin's right hand, everything in this space seemed to be absorbed by the Star.

Bailey was shocked; Lu Yin's single palm strike terrified even him.

Bang!

With a loud bang, the Cracking Sky Palm that Willow finally unleashed before him was completely shattered. His body, like a meteor, was violently embedded into the earth, utterly destroying the broken bridge again. A massive crater was smashed into the ground. Inside the crater, Willow spat out blood violently, looking at Lu Yin in disbelief.

He had not expected to be severely wounded by a single palm strike. That palm strike was too powerful; even his ring armor was shattered.

Granny was shocked. Willow was the strongest person in the academy, yet he was severely wounded by a single palm strike. It was incredible.

"How dare you fight in the city, you seek death!" A loud roar came from afar, followed by a fierce slash that tore through the sky and descended, aiming directly at Bailey.

Bailey ignored Granny and dodged himself.

The slash cut through the earth, creating countless sharp gusts of wind.

Bailey immediately donned his ring armor, looking grimly at Zhang Ding Tian.

In the air, Zhang Ding Tian scanned below, his gaze sweeping over Bailey and Granny. He saw Lu Yin standing on the ground and Willow, clearly injured, in the crater. His heart sank. He had already exchanged blows with Bailey and Willow; both were very strong. Today, one was severely wounded, and an unfamiliar person had appeared. That person was obviously the one who injured Willow, and this person was even stronger.

This was difficult to handle. At this moment, even Zhang Ding Tian had this thought. More importantly, there were only four of them here, and another four Heaven-level powerhouses hadn't shown themselves yet.

Cough, cough.

Willow covered his body and emerged from the crater, looking warily at Lu Yin. He walked to Bailey's side, "The situation is unfavorable."

Bailey's eyes narrowed. He took a deep breath, his expression becoming calm. "Not necessarily. It's a three-way melee; find a way to get out yourself." With that, he suddenly lunged towards Granny, and before anyone could react, he threw Granny towards Zhang Ding Tian.

Zhang Ding Tian subconsciously raised his saber and slashed. Granny screamed in fright, her face turning pale.

Lu Yin ascended, pushed Granny aside, and met Zhang Ding Tian's slash with a palm strike. The Cracking Sky Palm vibrated against the slash, clashing in mid-air. The air twisted, bearing the immense force of the collision. Lu Yin was forced to land, his feet sinking deep into the ground, shocked. This was Zhang Ding Tian's power.

After Bailey threw Granny, he immediately left. Willow did the same. One Zhang Ding Tian was already difficult to deal with, plus an unknown enemy. Even if they were arrogant, they weren't foolish.

But they weren't foolish, and neither was Zhang Ding Tian. After slashing at Granny, he unhesitatingly delivered another slash to Bailey. The two slashes had almost no time interval. Bailey had only taken a few steps when he encountered the slash and hastily dodged, his face grim. "We don't want to fight, let us go."

Zhang Ding Tian forcefully lunged at Bailey, "Not a single one of you will leave!" He said, raising his saber to slash. The close-range slash's pressure infuriated Bailey. "Heavy Punch!" Bailey roared, clenching his right fist, layers of vibrations pushing out the air as he unleashed a punch.

Boom!

The ground trembled. Heavy Punch was Bailey's combat technique. He originally thought this punch would be enough to injure Zhang Ding Tian, but the result shocked him. Not only was Zhang Ding Tian not injured, he pressed forward even more fiercely, directly forcing Bailey into the ground. The air current, like a tsunami, swept in all directions, completely destroying an area of a thousand meters. Willow reluctantly acted, sending a Cracking Sky Palm towards Zhang Ding Tian.

Zhang Ding Tian casually tore apart the Cracking Sky Palm with a slash, and his long saber once again swept horizontally towards Bailey. He was fighting two people alone.

Lu Yin was about to attack Willow when ice suddenly appeared under his feet. Not far away, Granny's legs were frozen. Bai Xue emerged from behind her, staring coldly at Lu Yin, "Don't be reckless."

Lu Yin looked at Bai Xue, a look of astonishment flashing in his eyes. There was actually such a beautiful woman.

"Are you, Luo Sheng Bai Xue?" Lu Yin guessed.

Bai Xue said coldly, "It seems you alien disciples have investigated very thoroughly."

Lu Yin said calmly, "Zhou Shan told me. She said your beauty makes you recognizable at first glance."

Bai Xue's eyes were icy cold, "You harmed Zhou Shan?"

Lu Yin was about to explain when a slash streaked past. Zhang Ding Tian tried to drag him into the battlefield as well. Lu Yin dodged, glancing to see Bai Xue directly freezing Granny. He frowned, and with a Floating Body Step, appeared beside Granny, grabbing Bai Xue's palm. Her palm was fair and very cold. "You want to kill her?"

Bai Xue said coldly, "So what?" As she spoke, extreme cold emanated from her body.

Lu Yin's eyes changed, "Talent, you possess the Ice Talent."

Bai Xue said nothing. The hand she held tightly with Lu Yin directly froze, spreading towards Lu Yin's arm. She wanted to freeze both Lu Yin and Granny.

Lu Yin's eyes were stern. The frozen palm erupted with Star Energy, and the circulation of Stars was faintly visible. As his palm struck, a Star appeared. With the Heavenly Star Palm, the ice shattered. Lu Yin exerted a little force and easily pushed Bai Xue away, sending her reeling back over 10 meters.

Bai Xue's arm ached, and her heart trembled. This was the first time someone had so easily shattered her ice.

Perhaps seeing Bai Xue pushed back, Zhang Ding Tian abandoned Bailey and Willow, and slashed at Lu Yin.

Lu Yin was impatient. He dodged Zhang Ding Tian's slash and took out Zhou Shan's identification, throwing it to him. "I'm Zhou Shan's friend, not an alien."

Zhang Ding Tian took the identification, his eyes surprised. "You're from Earth?"

Lu Yin nodded, glancing around, his expression changing. "Not good, those two want to run, chase them!" With that, he used Floating Body Step to pursue Willow, who was closest to him.

Zhang Ding Tian didn't have time to think much and slashed at Bailey.

Among those present, Zhang Ding Tian was the strongest. Even a Confinement Realm powerhouse like Bailey was at a disadvantage. Lu Yin's Heavenly Star Palm, though powerful, still hadn't allowed him to break through to Integration Realm combat strength. Firstly, because his own battle strength was too low, just over a thousand. Secondly, because the Heavenly Star Palm only utilized two Stars. If it were three Stars, it might be able to raise Lu Yin to Confinement Realm strength.

Willow was originally no match for Lu Yin, and after being severely wounded in the battle with Zhang Ding Tian, he was easily caught by Lu Yin.

Bailey also fell defeated under Zhang Ding Tian's relentless attacks, struck in the chest by a saber and collapsing.
