Chapter 86: Tenth Stage, Nothing More

Others remarked, "Even if their skills are inferior, at least in this moment, Red Flag High School is united."

But Little White Dragon in the Waves Shen Yan didn\'t say a word. He simply clenched his fists tightly, staring intently at the broadcast screen. He seemed even more nervous than the members of Red Flag High School\'s team. The scene had an inexplicable humor to it. A commentator not commentating and fully immersed in watching the game. Many people in the livestream burst out laughing on the spot.

***

In the light core virtual world, on the battlefield.

"Li Xiaofei, you didn\'t expect this, did you? I\'ve already reached the tenth stage of the Qi Refining Realm," Xing Yuantao boasted with a triumphant laugh. "This is Longteng High School. Everyone here is filled with a sense of urgency, and spares no effort to improve their cultivation. As a member of the school team, I dare not relax even for a moment."

He sneered at Li Xiaofei, "This is the foundation of Longteng High School. And you? What about your Red Flag High School? What do you have? A mediocre reputation? Scarce resources? Or outstanding students?"

Li Xiaofei remained silent.

Xing Yuantao thought he was scared. "Hahaha, don\'t randomly imitate others, especially someone as exceptional as Senior Zheng Shou."

He continued, becoming more complacent. "Because you don\'t deserve it. One move? Are you saying you want to kill me with one move? Haha, do you still dare to say such things now?"

"Are you done showing off?" Li Xiaofei suddenly spoke.

"Huh?" Xing Yuantao was taken aback.

Li Xiaofei grinned and said, "If you\'re done, then it\'s my turn."

Li Xiaofei was a blur as he used the Three Steps Cicada Catch. It was three times faster than when he fought against Swift Blade Gao Shen. Xing Yuantao only saw Li Xiaofei vanish before him. In the next moment, Li Xiaofei\'s Vajra Earth-Shaking Blow was already buried into his abdomen.

Boom!

The immense power was like a mountain flood, devouring everything in its path. Xing Yuantao\'s protective starforce qi was instantly shattered.

"Gah..."

He immediately curled up like a cooked shrimp.

"What are you showing off for when you’re this weak?" asked Li Xiaofei, looking down at him.

In that instant, he unleashed all the latent energy in his fist.

Bang.

Xing Yuantao\'s body exploded, turning into a mist of blood and bone fragments. Then, it transformed into shimmering streams of data and disappeared into the air.

"Tenth stage, nothing more," said Li Xiaofei, slowly retracting his fist.

His mastery of the Great Strength Vajra Fist had reached perfection. Not only had he brought the technique’s power to the utmost level, but he could also control the force of his punches, making them light or heavy, present or absent at will.

He had trained the martial technique, characterized by its extreme hardness, to a level that combined both hardness and softness. He had indeed reached the pinnacle of his training.

He took out a white handkerchief and gently wiped his fist as if it had been dirtied by the mere act of striking Xing Yuantao. He slowly raised his head to look at countless cameras. He opened his mouth... But he didn\'t utter any words of rebuttal or mockery. Instead, he simply smiled silently. Then, he teleported away from the battlefield.

***

If the Longteng Stadium had been a boiling volcano a moment before, it was now an iceberg. Tens of thousands of people were frozen in place as they stared. It was as if the scene from a movie had been suddenly paused.

Xing Yuantao stumbled out of the light core mainframe cockpit. His mind was still in a state of shock, unable to understand what had just happened.

I lost. How did I lose?

He had just barely advanced to the tenth stage. The moment that was supposed to belong to his glory had turned into a public humiliation. He turned his head to look. The light core mainframe cockpit behind him slowly opened.

Li Xiaofei walked out gracefully. He stood outside the cockpit, smiling and surveying his surroundings. The round stadium was now completely silent. Li Xiaofei smiled and cupped his ears with his hands.

Where were the sounds? The proud and arrogant, the noisy and cursing sounds? Come on! Continue, don\'t stop. Continue.

This simple gesture had an enormous effect on the audience. It was like he had tossed a match into a barrel of oil.

Boom!

The crowds of Longteng Stadium instantly burst out in fury. Countless spectators jumped up from their seats and cursed furiously like enraged roosters. A deluge of boos flooded toward the boy standing in the center of the arena, who was holding a hand to his ear. Numerous objects were hurled at him like raindrops.

Some of the more radical fans even tried to jump down from the ten-meter-high platform to fight Li Xiaofei. Fortunately, the event security responded quickly, immediately activating a magnetic shield to block the crowd.

Xing Yuantao, who was on the scene, felt blood rush to his head. His ears were buzzing. Instinctively, he dashed forward to fight Li Xiaofei to the death... But the referee on site stopped him.

Li Xiaofei smiled as he looked around the stands. He shrugged at the cameras and made a silly face. Then he walked leisurely toward the visiting team\'s preparation area.

"Ahhhh..."

Ren Dong, the big-headed lolita, was the first to rush out with open arms. She jumped up and clung to Li Xiaofei\'s right shoulder like a koala. The other team members also screamed as they ran over.

"We won!"

"Haha, you won, you really did it!"

"This is so satisfying, how did you do it?!"

"From now on, I’m going to call you Senior Li!"

"Damn, you really know how to show off. As a fellow good-looking person, you\'re putting a lot of pressure on me."

The members of the Red Flag High School team lifted Li Xiaofei and tossed him into the air.

"Damn it!" Li Xiaofei flailed his arms and legs. "I told you I\'m afraid of heights!"

"Hahaha... "

His response was met with laughter. On one side, Yan Chiyu stood quietly, a pure smile gradually spreading across his face. Principal Chen Fei and Grandpa Qin exchanged glances, holding back their laughter.

Ever since they found out that Li Xiaofei was the top-ranked demon king Your Grandpa on the leaderboard, nothing about this boy\'s actions surprised them anymore. The only discomfort was that holding in their laughter really strained their abdominal muscles.

On the other side, the members of the Longteng High School team didn\'t look so good in the home team\'s preparation area. No one comforted Xing Yuantao upon his return.

"Foolish." Zheng Shou reprimanded harshly.

Xing Yuantao opened his mouth but eventually lowered his head. Any excuse was meaningless in the face of failure.

Zheng Shou continued his merciless scolding. "In battle, you must always be one hundred percent vigilant against any opponent. Once you make a move, you must give it your all without holding back. You were foolish enough to try to scare your opponent by revealing your ten vortices? If that method worked, we might as well just compare our realms every time and skip the fight."

"I\'m sorry, Senior Zheng. I was wrong." Even someone as proud as Xing Yuantao admitted his mistake immediately when facing the school\'s top star.

"Your main battle position on the school team is suspended for a week," Zheng Shou declared.

Xing Yuantao did not dare to argue.

"In the upcoming team battle, I will not tolerate any mistakes," Zheng Shou’s eyes were filled with unwavering determination. "Zero casualties. Sweep that group of trash."

"Yes."

"Sweep that group of trash."

The anger in every team member\'s heart ignited. Zheng Shou glanced toward the visiting team\'s preparation area.

At that moment, Li Xiaofei also looked in their direction and their gazes met. A cold smile appeared on Zheng Shou\'s face as he drew his hand over his throat.
