But at this moment,
The Golden-Armored Earth Dragon's tail hammer screamed downward, unleashing successive blasts of terrifying air pressure.
At that moment,
"Nie Li, watch out!"
The Golden-Armored Earth Dragon's tail hammer was about to crash down on him. If that force connected, at Nie Li's current Silver Five Star strength, he would be seriously injured if not killed outright. Ye Han was holding nothing back.
Nie Li suddenly rolled sideways. The tail hammer scraped past his face so closely that he could feel a stinging sensation on his skin.
At that moment, a cold light flashed through Nie Li's eyes.
Gravity Field.
Nie Li suddenly imposed more than double the gravity on Ye Han. Ye Han's body plummeted uncontrollably toward the ground, and with a thunderous crash, dust erupted into the air.
Ye Han slammed into the ground and staggered back to his feet, shaking his head. Even though the Golden-Armored Earth Dragon had thick, tough skin, it couldn't withstand such an impact, and he was seeing stars. At this moment, Nie Li was standing barely a meter away from Ye Han, his palm force having been charged for quite some time.
After a period of comprehension, Nie Li had developed a rather deep understanding of the Tiger Fang Panda's various combat techniques. As his right fist charged, streaks of white vital energy condensed within it, and the blazing white light crackled like lightning.
Although the Golden-Armored Earth Dragon's body was covered in barbs, its lower ribs were still smooth. Nie Li had his target locked in.
Thunder Strike.
Nie Li threw a devastating punch that slammed into the Golden-Armored Earth Dragon's lower ribs.
Crack — the crisp sound of bone snapping echoed through the air.
Under the force of that blow, Ye Han's entire body was sent flying backward, crashing heavily to the ground.
Although the gap in raw strength between Nie Li and Ye Han was enormous, Nie Li's every dodge flowed like water, his timing precise to the last fraction. Every time he unleashed a combat technique, it was at the perfect moment. The Thunder Strike landed exactly where the Golden-Armored Earth Dragon was weakest.
From the very start of the battle, Nie Li had known all of Ye Han's combat techniques and every one of his weaknesses. Even after Ye Han's transformation, those vulnerabilities remained. And as for combat skill — Ye Han was not even in the same league as Nie Li.
Ye Han's ribs were shattered, and the pain twisted his face into a grimace. He clutched his injured side like a wild beast, his eyes burning with savage hatred as he glared at Nie Li.
"You're not my opponent. You should just concede," Nie Li said calmly, looking at Ye Han.
The watching students were stunned. They had never expected this outcome. They had assumed those words would have been spoken by Ye Han to Nie Li — not the other way around. Ye Han was a Gold Three Star Demon Spirit Master!
When everyone looked at Nie Li, their expressions were strange. They could clearly sense that Nie Li's strength was far inferior to Ye Han's. So why was Ye Han crumbling so easily under Nie Li's hands? Why had he been sent flying by a single punch even after his transformation?
What on earth was going on?
Xiao Ning'er, Lu Piao, and Du Ze had spent enough time around Nie Li that, after a moment's reflection, they understood how he had defeated Ye Han. Nie Li's specialty was catching opponents off guard in battle with a sudden Gravity Field, disrupting their movements, then striking directly at their weak points.
Even for those who knew his fighting style, Nie Li's approach was nearly impossible to defend against — let alone Ye Han, who had never encountered a technique like the Gravity Field before.
At that moment, whether it was Xiao Ning'er, Lu Piao, or Du Ze, they all gained fresh insight into their own combat techniques.
Ye Han raised his head to look at Nie Li, his eyes bloodshot, his heart filled with unwillingness. How could he have lost to Nie Li? He simply couldn't accept this reality. His strength was clearly several tiers above his opponent's.
All along, he had been the undisputed number-one genius of the
Why?
Why did I lose?
