Chapter 16 - What is that Spirit Skill??

Shu Yulin shifted in slight discomfort, remembering how Hai Xuanhao accidentally fractured Wu Lixue. Add to the fact that Wu Lixue was the one who instigated the fight, her losing must've bothered the little lady. It was clear that she was out for revenge.

"Alright, but be careful," Shu Yulin advised Wu Lixue with concern in her eyes. She then turned to look for the most good-looking child amongst class two of the first-graders and said, "Xuanhao, Wu Lixue has chosen you. Do well and fight for class two."

Xuanhao walked out with a miserable look on his face. He knew how good Wu Lixue was, topping all her academic subjects and actual combat class even as she was recuperating from her injury.

Him, on the other hand, was average at best. He might have learned a few practical combats and fighting techniques, but he knew that he was still going to lose against Wu Lixue.

"Hai Xuanhao, do your best! Xuanhao, do your best!" The students of class two cheered, gathering to support him.

His classmates all loved him. If it wasn't for his combat class results, he would have been appointed the class monitor for class two.

"You'll feel my full strength this time!" Wu Lixue raised her little chin arrogantly towards hai Xuanhao.

"Begin," the homeroom teacher of class one called.

Without preamble, Wu Lixue unleashed her spirit. A layer of faint bright light was released from her body, white scales surfacing out of the skin of her hands. The scales were in the form of rarely seen triangular shapes with a craggy protrusion at the center of every scale. Her pupils turned into sharp slits and her originally pitch-black eyes turned into a citrine color. A faint dragon roar resonated as she leaped forward, her whole form imposing.

Wu Lixue's spirit was exceedingly outstanding, best among her peers, and all the teachers were impressed. With her innate Spirit Power at rank eight, a rarely seen mutated spirit that was different from her parents, it took her merely a week to advance to rank 10.

A variant of the Earth Dragon Spirit, hers was the mutated Iron Dragon Spirit that has been promoted to the Celestial Dragon! From an inferior dragon, it had evolved into a true dragon. Although it was the weaker type amongst the true dragons, it was still a Dragon Spirit – one of the few strongest spirits in existence.

A yellow Spirit Ring surged from beneath her feet, the color that represented 100-year Spirit Rings. It was no wonder that Wu Lixue has so much confidence. Not only did she manage to gain a Spirit Skill, but she also bagged a 100-year one. Couple that power with her anger, she was unstoppable.

"Bring your spirit out!" Wu Lixue demanded at Hai Xuanhao.

Hai Xuanhao couldn't help but be anxious as he stared at her threatening pose. Shakily, he raised his left hand, bringing forth a Condensed pack of Air in front of his palm. Compared to the beginning of the term, the spirit he had produced did not appear to have any change.

he didn't yet use The Spirit's eyes, as his father instructed.

As soon as she saw the white Spirit Ring rising on Xuanhao's hands, Wu Lixue rushed towards him.

Hai Xuanhao panicked at the sight of Wu Lixue coming for him. He unconsciously took a step back, the white Spirit Ring he had lighting up. Immediately, the Air Condensed on his left hand emitted a Radiant Golden halo, the dewdrops on the leaves seemed to come alive as they converged into a river under his control. The river formed a whirlpool with a diameter of approximately one chi, But It looked somewhat Glowing In a radiance, shielding him from the front.

Despite its ordinary appearance, his Spirit was unique. After gaining his first Spirit Ring, it gave him the ability to control the element of water. However, his control wasn't strong yet and the most water that he could handle's roughly about 10 liters.

He was only able to manipulate the water into a beautiful but lethal spiral flow because of his diligent practice.

A dazzling luster blossomed from the Wu Lixue's yellow 100-year Spirit Ring, congealing around her. She then ran straight towards Hai Xuanhao's whirlpool, confident that her 100-year Spirit Ring would be able to break through his weak defense.

Everything happened in an instant. As both sides collided, it felt as time had frozen over. Both Hai Xuanhao's and Wu Lixue's faces showed panic and astonishment.

The instant Wu Lixue came into contact with Xuanhao's whirlpool, the white light around her body disappeared. Her body plunged into the whirlpool without a single defense. No matter how weak it was, it was still a Spirit Skill that could do considerable damage. Wu Lixue's small body was swept into the whirlpool for a few moments before the leaves from Hai Xuanhao's spirit threw her soaking wet body out.

Plop!

Wu Lixue fell onto the grass patch.

The students and the teachers were all stunned, confused as to what just happened.

"That's impossible! What Spirit Skill is that" Wu Lixue cried, staggering to her feet, drenched but otherwise unharmed.

She had a perfected Celestial Body, how could it just disappear all of a sudden? It should have been an easy collision into the whirlpool. She should've been able to go through his defense, knock Hai Xuanhao into the air, and throw him to the ground. How did it all backfire on her?

"Victory goes to Hai Xuanhao," Shu Yulin announced, still stupefied. She pulled Xuanhao back and walked him to his classmates who were rejoicing his victory.
