Godslayer: The Progenitor of Symbiotes

"Senior Li, could you please stop constantly relaying messages to your disciple? This whole thing was just about assessing Qin Xue's talent, and you've made a mess of it."

Hong Hao looked at the screen, at the scene inside the formation where streaks of lightning and ice flashed.

No matter how powerful Qin Xue is, with her peak strength at the "Zhan" realm, she could never be a match for Li Daoxuan, who is comparable to the "Chuan" realm.

Senior Li stood up from his chair and walked to a seat closer to the screen.

"Don't worry, among Wei Ziwei, Wang Gang, and Dao Xuan, Dao Xuan has the least destructive power when it comes to using lightning techniques."

"His fighting style mainly relies on the diversity of formations, combined with the assistance of lightning magic."

"Based on my observation, this girl's fighting power is enough to easily deal with even Wang Gang, so she won't be easily injured by Dao Xuan."

Wei Ziwei uses lightning magic on her weapons, achieving a surprise and unpredictable effect when attacking, which can effectively improve the utilization of weapons.

Wang Gang summoned thunder and lightning, using heavenly lightning to power his body, allowing him to unleash extraordinary combat power in a short period of time.

Li Daoxuan used the thunder seed within his body to communicate with the thunder of heaven and earth, creating a thunder array. "Within my array, I am the master," he said, and fought against his enemies within the array.

Hong Hao's lips twitched, inwardly exclaiming at the shamelessness of this Senior Li in front of him.

"Senior Li, there's a hidden meaning in your words... Why do I keep getting the feeling that you're praising your disciple in a roundabout way?"

"Instructor Hong is joking. It's the truth. My beloved disciple is indeed the weakest in terms of killing power." Senior Li stroked his beard and smiled, looking every bit like he was showing off.

“…Yes, yes, he’s the one who plays the most fancy tricks.” Hong Hao nodded in agreement.

He was telling the truth; he really does play fancy tricks. His combat skills are like that, and so is his personal life. He's the first person in the training camp to call someone "wife."

……

Amidst the dense lightning and icy chill, Li Daoxuan suddenly felt an itch in his nose.

"Ah sneeze~"

Who misses me?

"ah?!……"

The moment he sneezed, Qin Xue's figure flashed in front of him. Li Daoxuan cried out in surprise as he was struck hard in the chest by a heavy punch.

However, the next second, Li Daoxuan's figure disappeared.

Qin Xue's gaze was steady as she slashed her straight blade towards a certain spot behind her, the fierce blade energy sending Li Daoxuan flying.

"It would be better to fight Zhao the Monkey King..."

Li Daoxuan's figure disappeared again. In the subsequent attacks, Li Daoxuan would always unexpectedly switch the positions of the two, but Qin Xue would always block the attacks, and there were even occasional instances where he would be hit by a knife or two.

This time, Li Daoxuan switched their positions again, and Qin Xue's gaze darkened. "Freeze!!"

The moment Li Daoxuan heard Qin Xue's voice, he realized something was wrong. However, he had no time to react. A stream of water suddenly appeared, enveloping him and freezing into ice.

Qin Xue flashed in front of Li Daoxuan and struck him hard in the chest with the hilt of her sword!

The moment the dragon soul took over Qin Xue's body, the bloodline fusion level of this body had already reached 23%.

Even with Li Daoxuan's body tempered by lightning magic, it would be difficult for him to completely withstand this attack.

And that was indeed the case; as the hilt of the knife struck Li Daoxuan's chest, a scream echoed through the air.

As Li Daoxuan staggered back in pain, Qin Xue whispered, "A cold front!"

Whoosh! ! !

A cold current gathered and, in the blink of an eye, condensed into the shape of a dragon, rushing towards Li Daoxuan.

...! We're doomed!!

Li Daoxuan was shocked. It was too late to use the lightning seed within his body to communicate with the formation.

The icy dragon disappeared into Li Daoxuan's body in the blink of an eye, and Li Daoxuan's body was visibly covered with frost, as if he had been frozen into an ice sculpture.

Holy crap! I can't move!

Li Daoxuan maintained a terrified expression, his body completely out of his control.

The only way to prevent the internal organs from being completely frozen into ice is by relying on the flow of the lightning seed through the meridians in the body.

"The rest is up to you; I can't help you anymore."

Dragon Soul hurriedly gave a word of instruction, and control of the body returned to Qin Xue's hands.

"Qin Xue, stop fighting, I'll concede in his place..."

Bai Lingmo's shout came from outside the formation. Upon hearing it, Qin Xue withdrew her bloodline power and walked towards Bai Lingmo.

At the same time, Li Daoxuan severed the communication between the lightning seed and the formation, and Qin Xue successfully walked out of the formation's range.

"Qin Xue, are you alright?" Bai Lingmo grabbed Qin Xue's hands, asking her with concern, but her eyes remained fixed on Li Daoxuan's direction.

"...I'm fine, you should go see your...fiancé first," Qin Xue said awkwardly. She couldn't believe that the reason Zhao Yuan didn't protect Bai Lingmo was because of her fiancé.

"Okay!" Bai Lingmo glanced gratefully at Qin Xue, decisively let go of Qin Xue's hand, and ran towards Li Daoxuan.

Beside him, Zhao Yuan, whose Zhenxu Stele had been lifted and the forbidden area returned to normal but had not been able to play its role, looked slightly embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, he still braced himself and walked to Qin Xue's side.

“That…Qin Xue…”

"Don't come any closer, I have a boyfriend."

After learning that Zhao Yuan had also pursued Bai Lingmo, Qin Xue naturally lost the desire to speak kindly to him.

Interrupted by Qin Xue's words, Zhao Yuan felt somewhat embarrassed.

"This competition was unfair to begin with. Li Daoxuan has cultivated lightning techniques for half a year longer than me, so it's normal that I couldn't beat him. Next time, I will definitely..."

"What do you mean, 'definitely'? I didn't even use my full strength when I fought you, Zhao Monkey, you're so shameless."

Li Daoxuan's voice came from behind, and Bai Lingmo was helping him walk towards Qin Xue.

His use of the word "shameless" is not only due to Zhao Yuan's arrogance, but also because Zhao Yuan had previously pursued his fiancée.

How could this not anger Li Daoxuan? If Zhao Yuan hadn't stopped in time, Li Daoxuan probably wouldn't have held back at all in the fight just now.

"Li Daoxuan! What nonsense are you spouting? You think I have no shame? If you're so capable, let's fight again. Do you think your formation-breaking technique will still be effective this time?!"

Enraged, Zhao Yuan slammed his long staff into the ground.

Qin Xue glanced at Zhao Yuan with annoyance. Although she hadn't defeated Li Daoxuan on her own, she still disliked Zhao Yuan's excuses and current behavior.

"Zhao Yuan, if you're angry because you want to pursue me, then forget it. I have a boyfriend."

“If it’s for other reasons, I still don’t want you to fight with Lingmo’s fiancé, because you’re just taking advantage of his vulnerability.”

Zhao Yuan frowned slightly, glanced at Li Daoxuan with dissatisfaction, and then looked at Qin Xue, "I won't give up easily. Your boyfriend can't even get into the training camp. I hope you'll reconsider."

Upon hearing this, Qin Xue's eyebrows furrowed, she gripped her straight knife tightly, and rebuked, "I won't allow you to speak of him like that. You're not even one percent as good as him."

Hmph, everyone in the training camp knows that Li Daoxuan is the disciple of the head of the "Thunder Magic Department". Who knows what secret techniques his master has taught him.

He has always relied on himself; external forces are ultimately just external forces and cannot compare to talent.

Zhao Yuan showed no emotion this time, simply saying, "I'm not out yet, the competition continues."

After saying that, he turned around and left.
