Chapter 1177: His Era Is About to Arrive
How could Xiao Chuihuo possibly stop him in time? Jiangnan had already charged forward!
Wei Teng said nothing, his long blade slashing down fiercely!
"One Line Sky!"
The blade light fell like autumn water, and Jiangnan simply raised his hand to catch it!
Glazed Armor gathered on his palm as he grabbed the blade edge!
In an instant, shockwaves exploded!
How could Wei Teng accept this?
"Crescent Moon Like a Hook!"
His other blade, like a crescent moon, traced a half-circle through the air, slashing viciously toward Jiangnan's shoulder!
Jiangnan lifted his hand and flicked it, a bone blade extending from his palm like a jade knife!
"Clang!"
Sparks flew everywhere, and the powerful recoil sent Wei Teng's long blade flying from his hand!
Wei Teng's eyes bulged wide, his face full of shock!
ﾞ━=͟͟͞͞(Ŏ口Ŏ‧̣̥̇)
What the hell was that bone blade?
What kind of trick was this again?
But I still have one more blade!
His mouth-held long blade slashed fiercely!
Jiangnan withdrew his left hand, his eyes fixed firmly on the blade edge, using two fingers to catch it!
The blade was firmly pinched between two fingers, then Jiangnan lifted his leg and kicked straight, planting his foot squarely on Wei Teng's chest!
His body was sent flying like a cannonball, and Jiangnan flicked the blade aside, sticking it into the steel plate!
The old students watched this scene, their hearts surging with excitement!
"Hahaha! Brothers and sisters, what are you hesitating for? Go up and beat him!"
"Even if we can just give Boss Nan Shen a black eye, that's fine too! The Pioneer Academy's graduation ceremony ought to be like this!"
"Right! What's with all the crying? Boss Nan Shen, catch this!"
Xiao Zhen raised his fist and punched, the vibration incredibly powerful!
In an instant, Jiangnan covered his entire body in Glazed Armor, trading blows with Xiao Zhen!
"Bam!"
Their fists each slammed into the other's chest!
Jiangnan stood firm, the Glazed Armor on his chest shattered by the shock!
But Jiangnan's fist, like a heavy hammer, forcibly broke through Xiao Zhen's vibrational armor!
His fist was torn open by the shock, but the bone was unscathed, sending Xiao Zhen flying with one punch!
"Haha! Much stronger than last time!"
As he spoke, the injury on his hand had already healed!
He raised his hand, releasing a Spatial Barrier to block an incoming fireball, then teleported in front of Qi Delong Dongqiang, who was just about to start singing!
Jiangnan pushed both hands upward fiercely!
The two men's jaws, just opened, were forced together by Jiangnan's push, spinning upward like a spiral!
Just then, the long-haired enchantress Liuli's black hair surged toward Jiangnan like tentacles!
Jiangnan didn't dodge; he raised his hand and shot out tens of thousands of Spirit Silk!
They tangled with the strands of black hair, blocking the attack and wrapping Liuli up like a silkworm cocoon!
Then he swung her like a meteor hammer, sending several people flying!
At this moment, Jiangnan charged and fought through the crowd of over two hundred old students, ruthlessly blasting away anyone who crossed his path!
The commotion of battle and alarms drew countless students to watch!
The new students also ran over to join the fun!
Watching Jiangnan take on over two hundred old students alone, fighting fiercely and exhilaratingly, they got goosebumps all over!
=͟͟͞͞(꒪ᗜ꒪‧̣̥̇) "Holy crap? Isn't this supposed to be a graduation ceremony? Why are they fighting?"
‼(•'口'•۶)۶ "Is Boss Nan Shen this beastly? I thought he could only bully new students, but who knew he'd fight old students the same way?"
(˵¯͒﹏¯͒˵) "Speaking of which, isn't Boss Nan Shen graduating with the seniors? How is he this freakishly strong? Why bother with school at all?"
˚₊*(ˊॢO̶̶̷̤₃O̴̶̷̤ˋॢ)*₊˚ "˚wow~ This is way too cool! Totally worth the effort to get in!"
Xiao Chuihuo, sitting in his wheelchair, covered his face. The alloy training ground had been smashed into a huge crater by them!
They're leaving the country tomorrow!
On this final day of staying here, are they determined to wear out the academy's durability?
Luo Tianqing smacked her lips in admiration: "Completely powerful in every way! Space System is really just icing on the cake!"
For Jiangnan, supernatural abilities were never the only source of strength!
He had too many methods, so many that they left opponents feeling hopeless and desperate!
Xiao Chuihuo watched the figure moving energetically across the field, his eyes full of emotion: "This little brat is already showing signs of invincibility!"
"It's truly not easy to reach this level at Platinum, but the time for him to truly shine and step onto the world stage hasn't come yet!"
"Once he really breaks through to Diamond and Starlight, Jiangnan will truly come into his own!"
And that would be when Jiangnan's era officially arrived!
Because of the alarm, Zhong Yingxue, Xia Yao, and the others, who had been holed up in the training room cultivating, rarely came out!
The moment they arrived, they saw Jiangnan beating up the seniors!
And he said he didn't know martial arts?
Zhong Yingxue covered her small mouth: (*ﾟლﾟ)!! "Pl... Platinum peak? That fast?"
Since returning to the academy, she hadn't seen Xiao Nan cultivate much. How did he reach Platinum peak just from invigilating an exam?
Xia Yao pouted: (￢₃￢｡) "Stinky Xiao Nan! Do you have to be this fast? Leveling up just by wandering around? When will I ever catch up?"
During this time, the team members had been cultivating madly to improve their strength!
Zhong Yingxue and Xia Yao had even pushed straight to Platinum Eight!
But there was still a considerable gap from Jiangnan, and Wu Liang was at Platinum Seven, needing even more effort!
"Siiigh~ Bone claws are so cool! Ahhh! What's that? I want one~"
It would go perfectly with her own abilities, wouldn't it?
Zhong Yingxue was even more stunned. Xiao Nan was even stronger than before!
And he had so many terrifying methods. How could he be this fierce?
Wu Liang covered his face, then immediately sat cross-legged on the ground and started absorbing Spirit Beads!
"Boom!"
As the sun set in the west, Jiangnan wiped the sweat off his face, raised his hand, and ate a Small Ginseng!
His complexion flushed, then he pulled out his Blood-Drinking Blade, with a bone blade in the other hand, and clashed them together violently!
The surging physical strength flowed into his body through the blades—exploiting bugs was his favorite!
Jiangnan clapped his hands!
(๑͡°ٹ͡°)人 "Looks like you all definitely received my gifts!"
"Don't think that just because you're graduating, you can slack off! You need to work even harder!"
At that moment, all over the academy, 278 old students lay sprawled on the ground, bruised and battered, with looks of utter despair on their faces!
(#)≖◞‸◟≖(#)
Who would dare slack off?
Even with this kind of pressure, the gap was still this huge. If they slacked off, they'd be left in the dust!
This motivation was really quite profound, wasn't it?
The crowd smiled bitterly as they got up, one by one stepping forward to embrace Jiangnan and say goodbye!
Under the setting sun, the old students stood at the academy's gate, bowing deeply to the academy!
"Thank you for your teachings, your earnest guidance will remain in our hearts!"
"For the rest of our lives, we will dedicate ourselves to this era, giving our all and forging ahead!"
The neat cries echoed over the academy, a vow and a promise to themselves!
Xiao Chuihuo rubbed his eyes and smiled calmly!
(◞ꈍ◡ꈍ◟) "Children! Go! The world is vast, let you fly freely!"
The dusk was like blood. Xiao Zhen, Mo Tian, and the others pulled their suitcases and walked out of the academy, embarking on a new journey.
Their shadows stretched long and long. Jiangnan stood at the gate for a long while, until he could no longer see their backs.
Seeing that Zhong Yingxue, Xia Yao, and the others were also there, Jiangnan smiled and teleported over!
٩(๑•ㅂ•)۶ "Let's go, let's go~ Go home and eat. I'll make you something delicious!"
Xia Yao leaned in excitedly!
(ʃƪ⁰̷̴.̫⁰̷̴) "Can you teach me that bone claw trick? It's super cool. I'll warm your bed!"
Jiangnan chuckled: "I was planning to teach you all anyway!"
Back at Sky Island, Jiangnan cooked a whole table of food!
He taught the complete Spirit Muscle Jade Bone and Spirit Power Garment to Wu Liang, Xiong Er, and the others!
For tanks and melee fighters, the benefits went without saying!
The biggest help was for Zhong Yingxue; improving her physical stats would make her combat more flexible!
Jiangnan had also informed Chen Daoyi about the Spirit Garment matter!
Of course, that guy didn't care, since the Chen Clan was flourishing in the Western Frontier thanks to Jiangnan.
"Go pack up tonight, we're heading to Yu Guo together tomorrow?"
"It's a sanctioned shakedown, definitely profitable! I..."
Before Jiangnan could finish, everyone at the dinner table had stopped their chopsticks!
Zhong Yingxue shook her head: (･᷄～･᷅) "We're not going this time. We'll stay home and cultivate!"
Xia Yao looked upset!
୧(◍˃̵͈̑~˂̵͈̑)୨ "I really want to go! Yu Guo's beaches are beautiful, we can dive, eat crab and seafood, surf—ahhh~"
"But I can't go. If I play anymore, I'll never catch up to you!"
Jiangnan was stunned. They were all not going?
Usually, they fought to come along!
He turned his gaze to Wu Liang and Xiong Er!
But they also shook their heads, and even Xiao Jiuwo was staying home to cultivate!
Jiangnan was dumbfounded: "No way? I'm going alone? It'll be so boring!"
"Aren't you afraid some pretty princess will steal me away?"
The moment he said that, Zhong Yingxue and Xia Yao's eyes flashed red!
(｡͡’～͡’)ᵒ̌~ᵒ̌)ง
Jiangnan's eyes darted: (๑◔₃◔ิ๑) "I... I was just kidding. No princess could ever steal me away!"
But Xiao Mila pounced over!
٩(๐˃᷄ꇴ˂᷅)۶ "Giggle~ Mila will go! I don't need to cultivate!"
Right now, Mila was at Gold peak, and because of her Time System, her body was under great strain!
Leveling up too fast could cause problems!
Zhong Yingxue smiled: (๑ᵒ̌◡ᵒ̌) "Alright, it's not that we don't want to go with you, it's just that if we get left behind, we'll never catch up!"
"At the very least, we need to raise our ranks to Diamond!"
As she said this, determination filled Zhong Yingxue's eyes!
If they went this time, next time they might truly not be able to keep pace with Jiangnan.
Especially after seeing Jiangnan's recent battle, if the strength gap was too large, even coordination would be impossible!
Xia Yao stomped on the stool, full of spirit!
✧*｡٩(❛ั口❛ั*)੭✧*｡ "I, Da Lang Mie, swear!"
"By the time you get back, I'll have reached at least one of Diamond or you!"
Wu Liang spat a mouthful of rice all over Xiong Er's face!
Pfft ꉂꉂ(˃᷄(ｴ)˂᷅๑)
Xiong Er: (‧̣̥̇≖‧̣̥̇㉨‧̣̥̇≖‧̣̥̇)...
Brother Bear! Do you think you're being funny?
"Ahem~ Those two things don't actually conflict. Kids make choices; adults want both!"
Jiangnan covered his face!
You said the same thing when you were at Gold!
And you chose to reach Platinum!
Jiangnan looked helpless. He could tell Zhong Yingxue and the others were truly trying their hardest to keep up!
Even though they never said it, Wu Liang was even absorbing Spirit Beads while eating!
So he would have to go alone this time?
At least he still had Mila going with him! So he clapped his hands!
"Alright, then! Everyone come here! I'll give you all some big treasures!"
Everyone looked forward to it expectantly!
