**Chapter 172: One Man Annihilates the Team**
Zhong Yingxue's heart leaped into her throat!
The blade was about to stab Jiangnan!
But at that very moment!
Jiangnan extended a hand in front of him, blocking the attack!
The Space Wormhole expanded to its maximum!
Ma Hao's heart jolted as he instantly realized something was wrong!
But by now, it was too late to pull back!
He turned his head and roared, "Watch out!"
The next second! The blade thrust fiercely into the Space Wormhole!
It suddenly emerged from behind, cutting across!
Heading straight for the two girls providing backup!
Panicked, the two girls quickly retreated!
One of them accidentally stumbled off the ring!
Ma Hao breathed a heavy sigh of relief, knowing Jiangnan had held back!
If not, it wouldn't have been just a fall off the ring—blood would have been spilled!
But just then!
Ma Hao felt a sinister wind blowing from behind!
He looked up and saw a humanoid meteor hammer smashing toward him with unstoppable force!
"Dammit!"
Ma Hao couldn't react in time, so he could only cross his arms in front of his chest!
He extended blades all over his body at full strength, turning himself into a porcupine-like creature!
Lu Ming:!!!
"Xiao Hao! Are you trying to stab your big brother?!"
"Clang!"
Sparks flew, accompanied by the sound of metal clashing!
Ma Hao's body was blasted away like a cannonball, flying over a hundred meters!
He landed in the audience section! Coughing up blood, he fainted on the spot!
As for Lu Ming, he screamed miserably as Jiangnan swung him into the sky!
Flying 300 meters away!
The Void Chain stretched taut!
Jiangnan grinned. "Big Skill: Humanoid Armor-Piercing Bullet!"
With that, he yanked hard on the Void Chain!
A tremendous force was instantly applied to Lu Ming's body!
His speed was like a silver lightning bolt, smashing heavily into the ground!
"Boom!"
Rocks and dirt flew everywhere, and cracks spread like a spider web in all directions!
Lu Ming was planted headfirst into the ring!
His body was covered with blades, and he was scorched by fireballs and blasted by water cannons, a miserable sight!
He had completely lost consciousness!
At that moment, the entire venue fell silent!
Everyone gasped!
Jiangnan had taken on four opponents at the limit?
Had he really single-handedly wiped out Lu Ming's team?
The battle had lasted less than three minutes!
Even more terrifying was that Jiangnan had stood in the same spot the entire time, never moving a step!
"One man annihilates the team? This... is this guy even human?"
"Nan Shen is a true god!"
"Humanoid meteor hammer restricting Lu Ming's team's movements, disrupting their rhythm, using their own blades against them, then clearing out the support, taking advantage of the gap to blast Ma Hao away, and finally finishing off Lu Ming!"
"Damn! What kind of terrifying combat instincts is that? Are all the Dark Night Army guys this scary?"
"Jiang the Grim Reaper is just too brutal!"
"Absolutely amazing! Brother Nan Shen! Want to go on a date? The kind where you don't go home at night!"
Zhong Yingxue covered her mouth, utterly stunned. She had known Jiangnan was strong since Beishan!
But she never expected him to be this strong!
One against four? And it was a total crushing victory!
Xia Yao widened her eyes, staring at Jiangnan in disbelief!
He really won? Just like that?
She knew that Jiangnan still had many tricks up his sleeve that he hadn't used!
In other words, this was far from Jiangnan's limit!
She muttered in a daze, "Xiao Xue... this time, we might actually make it to the nationals!"
Zhong Yingxue smiled. "I'm looking forward to it!"
Wu Liang was still lying on the ground, vomiting.
The teacher was also stunned, looking at Jiangnan in surprise. This transfer student was unexpectedly far too strong!
Principal Sun, however, was beaming with delight!
He knew Jiangnan's true identity, and now he was actually glad that such a treasure had been shoved into his school!
This All-Star Game... Songjiang Spirit Martial was about to rise!
Jiangnan laughed and ran over to Zhong Yingxue and Xia Yao.
"So? Don't I get a kiss?"
Zhong Yingxue's pretty face blushed, and Xia Yao glared at him. "Kiss my ass! You wish!"
Jiangnan rolled his eyes, then looked speechlessly at Wu Liang, who was still lying on the ground, vomiting what looked like the dinner from two days ago.
He'd have to find a chance to stuff a Pacifier into the big guy's mouth too.
...
While on Jiangnan's ring, the other two rings also had teams fighting!
The battles there were incredibly intense!
In contrast, Jiangnan's ring was eerily quiet!
After Lu Ming's team had gone up and lost—crushed by Jiangnan alone—how could anyone else dare to challenge?
They could only fight for the other two spots!
Jiangnan and his three teammates were so bored that they sat by the edge of the ring cracking sunflower seeds!
The other students were dumbfounded!
Seriously?
Can you be any more arrogant?
It was worth mentioning that after Qin Shou woke up, he led his Ice Peak Team to try and snatch a spot again!
Qin Shou snapped his fingers!
A massive iceberg rose out of nowhere, dozens of meters high!
Frigid air spread across the entire venue! The defending team was pushed off the ring!
They also won in a crushing fashion!
Beneath his chuunibyou exterior lay overwhelming strength!
They reclaimed their spot!
As for the third team, it was the one led by Lin Chuqing!
Her ability was also beast transformation, a Nine-Tailed Fox!
Those fluffy white fox ears and nine fluffy fox tails made Jiangnan's heart melt!
He stared without blinking!
Then he was pinched hard by Xia Yao, wincing in pain!
"What are you looking at? Don't you have one at home?"
Jiangnan: ???
Xia Yao pouted, her face all puffed up in annoyance.
Was she jealous?
"Yours only has one tail! She has nine!"
Xia Yao exploded!
So what if she has more tails?
Does having more tails make her better?
At least I have bigger ones than her!
[From Xia Yao: Resentment +1000!]
Seeing Xia Yao's little fangs gradually bared, Jiangnan immediately backed down!
"Hey... let's talk this out! No biting!"
Xia Yao: "As the old saying goes: A gentleman uses words, not fists! Aah!"
Jiangnan: ???
"Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!"
Chinese teacher, come here!
I swear I won't kill you!
Is that really what that saying means?
...
In the end, Lin Chuqing's Demon Emperor Team barely managed to secure the third spot!
Honestly, if Lu Ming's team hadn't fallen to Jiangnan, Lin Chuqing's team might not have gotten the chance!
The spots were confirmed!
Principal Sun stepped forward to speak. "I've seen all the students' hard work!"
"The All-Star Game will be held two days from now at the Baishan Qiandao Lake Ling Xu!"
"This time, there are 33 Spirit Martial schools from the province participating! Each school will send three teams!"
"That's 99 teams in total! Last time, our school achieved third place in the All-Star Game and advanced to the nationals!"
"As you all know, how much entering the Spirit Pool can boost a Spirit Warrior!"
"This time, I also hope that you will strive to do your best while ensuring your own safety, and bring honor to the school!"
"The school will also provide a portion of scholarships as rewards!"
"The All-Star Game will take place in two days! For students who have secured a spot, the school will arrange transportation to Baishan Qiandao Lake tomorrow!"
"Please prepare in advance!"
Xia Yao's eyes lit up. "Xiao Nan! Xiao Nan! Did you hear that?"
"I want to eat barbecue! And sleep in a tent!"
Zhong Yingxue sighed helplessly. "Are we going on vacation?"
Jiangnan grinned wide:
"Follow your Nan Shen!"
"Traveling is just a side gig!"
"Don't ask a thing!"
"Skewers and iron pot stew—let's dig!"
