Boom!
Xiong Ba's aura exploded outward, his cultivation surging violently. The arena stones cracked beneath his feet as his muscles bulged, veins popping across his skin.
The crowd gasped.
"He was holding back this whole time?!"
Ling Xuan's face paled as she realized the truth—Xiong Ba had been toying with her.
"Damn you!" Long Chen shouted from the stands, his voice raw with rage.
Xiong Ba grinned savagely. "This is what happens when you cross the Blood Axe Sect, boy!"
His axe came down with terrifying speed, far faster than before. Ling Xuan barely raised her sword in time—
Clang!
The impact sent her skidding backward, blood trickling from her lips.
Qingqing's eyes widened. "Oh no! She's really in trouble now!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
In the arena, Ling Xuan struggled to defend against Xiong Ba's relentless assault. Each strike sent shockwaves through her body, her arms trembling from the strain.
He swung horizontally, aiming to bisect her at the waist.
