Instructor Xue slightly nodded, the spear tip still directly pointing at his opponent, and said in a deep voice, "I thought so."

As soon as the words fell, Terreda suddenly threw his head back and roared, his Qi and Blood instantly surged, and the originally faint blood-colored aura became dense and tangible. The demon battle patterns on his chest, arms, and back suddenly lit up, and red flames erupted unexpectedly from the tattoos, enveloping his entire body. The high temperature instantly dispersed the surrounding snow and wind, even the air was distorted from the heat.

"This is the Battle Pattern Secret Technique of the Barbarian Race, Instructor Xue, be careful!"

Meanwhile, Instructor Xue took a deep breath, and the cyan-purple Spiritual Energy around him suddenly exploded, the wind howling and purple lightning crackling within the Spiritual Energy.

His muscles bulged visibly, cyan Dragon Scales spread from his neck, covering most of his body, his pupils transformed into elongated gold, majestic and cold, with a faint cyan dragon shadow appearing behind him, the sound of wind and thunder grew louder, he seemed like a Divine Beast returning from ancient times, his aura overwhelmingly grand.

Azure Dragon Transformation, activated!

"Boom!"

The two moved almost simultaneously, red flames and cyan-purple wind and thunder collided on the arena, generating a deafening roar. Terreda’s sword techniques became increasingly violent, flames clung to the blade, each stroke carried the power to burn mountains and boil seas; Instructor Xue utilized the force of wind and thunder to greatly increase his speed, spear shadows poured down like torrential rain, lightning sometimes entwining the spear tip, sometimes striking at the opponent, combining offense and defense.

The specially constructed arena was overwhelmed by their clash, stone fragments flying, quickly becoming riddled with holes.

The violent energy waves spread in all directions, the Barbarian Warriors and Zuiyu soldiers below the arena retreated in fear of being affected, the once fervent cheers turned into suppressed amazement.

On the podium, the Poisonous Widow frowned slightly, looking again at Qin Tian, her voice still gentle: "Boss, who do you think will win?"

Qin Tian said calmly, "Instructor Xue."

That answer didn’t surprise the people around him.

It’s clear that Instructor Xue’s control in battle far surpassed Terreda.

He was a veteran who had fought on the battlefield for over twenty years, having gone through countless battles big and small. His combat experience had long been integrated into his bones, every move precise and fierce, no excess actions.

While Terreda’s fighting style was bold and fierce, it was ultimately somewhat crude, relying solely on passion and brute force, revealing weaknesses against an experienced opponent like Instructor Xue.

Sure enough, on the arena, Instructor Xue had already discerned Terreda’s attack rhythm and weaknesses amidst their successive clashes.

His gaze focused, the wind and thunder power around him suddenly converged, all infused into his spear, his spear technique instantly transitioning from defense to offense, the spear tip transformed into a cyan-purple lightning bolt, piercing through the red flame barrier, straight at Terreda.

This round of attacks was extremely fierce, the changes as swift as lightning, Terreda couldn’t react in time, his previously violent sword techniques became chaotic and exposed frequent flaws, gradually showing signs of distress.

Even those ignorant of battle could see he was completely suppressed.

"Watch out!"

Instructor Xue shouted low, his figure gracefully evading Terreda’s final stroke like a dragon’s tail, his long spear skillfully lifted, performing his signature move "Azure Dragon Fetches Water," the spear tip precisely struck the connection between the Zhanshou saber’s hilt and blade.

"Clang!"

Terreda felt a numbness in his wrist, the saber could no longer be held, flying out of his hand, landing and trembling at the edge of the arena.

Before Terreda could recover, Instructor Xue’s long spear was already pointed at his chest, the spear tip mere inches from his heart, cyan-purple Spiritual Energy swirling, but no further step taken.

The entire scene fell silent in an instant, everyone’s gaze focused on the arena.

Terreda looked down at the spear tip at his chest, paused for a moment, then shook his head and admitted calmly:

"I lost."

Although he still had trump cards unused, this was a spar, clearly the other side wasn’t using full strength either.

Thus, he accepted defeat for this round of battle.

"Wow—!"

The scene fell into a dead silence, then erupted in turmoil.

The Barbarian Warriors opened their eyes wide, faces full of disbelief. In their hearts, Terreda was a powerhouse comparable to a Legendary Warrior, with an unmatched formidable body, an elite leader in their homeland’s top tribe.

However, such a powerhouse was defeated so simply.

The outcome was decided too swiftly and cleanly, lacking the expected bloodbath showdown until the last moment, the desperate conclusion, as if once the opponent got serious, victory was determined instantly.

On the podium, everyone showed varied expressions, waves stirring within their hearts.

Xiong, Li Qi, Old Ghost, Poisonous Widow, knowing Terreda’s true strength well, seeing Instructor Xue defeat Terreda so effortlessly, it meant—Xiong had no chance if engaged directly; Li Qi excelled in stealth assassination but truly lacked confidence in a direct confrontation; only Old Ghost, relying on the advantages of Tier Six Eight Star cultivation, plus the Soul Master’s unpredictable soul techniques, might stand a chance.

But regardless, this sparring had thoroughly proven Instructor Xue’s strength.

"Clap clap clap!"

Kane was the first to react, enthusiastically clapping, his face full of excitement and admiration.

Zhou Ziming’s gaze remained locked on Instructor Xue on the arena, his eyes slightly flickering, pondering something unknown.

Beside the arena, the Zuiyu soldiers also stood up and applauded, the applause thunderous.
