Doupo: Who is Yandi? He should call me brother.

Chapter 54: No, buddy, you are also speed running in the inner courtyard!

Zhu Yunqing was defeated. The expert ranked 46th on the strong list was defeated by Xiao Li. Wang Kunyue felt that his worldview had collapsed.

I went through so much trouble to get into the inner courtyard, and practiced like an ox or a horse for three years, and now you tell me that the outer courtyard is stronger than the inner courtyard?

Xiao Li shook off the frost and snow on his gun and said in a calm voice, unable to tell whether he was happy or angry. "Can you all move aside now?"

Wang Kunyue gritted his teeth, knowing that he was no match for his opponent. The strongest one here was Zhu Yunqing.

Wei Ming, who had been frowning, suddenly felt a familiar breath. He was startled and turned his head to look back.

"Boss."

"Ah."

Fu Ziyi nodded, signaling him not to worry, "Your talent is truly extraordinary, the only one I have ever seen in my life. If you are willing to join my Sunset Sect, I will let you be the deputy sect leader. How about that?"

Xiao Li looked at it and his pupils shrank slightly. It was an eight-star fighting spirit.

"That's wrong. If this fellow student is willing to join our Hongxia Gang, he will be more than qualified to be the deputy leader."

A soft voice was heard and a charming figure appeared, making the eyes of all the men present brighten.

Xiao Li remained unmoved and looked to the other side. Wang Kunyue was standing behind that man, obviously in awe.

The person who came had loose black hair and was wearing a red dress that looked like clouds in the sky. She was quite beautiful.

It’s a pity that Xiao Li has now decided to spend his life with Xiao Yixiang, so naturally he won’t have any bad thoughts about other women.

"Your Excellency is..."

"Fourth on the Strongest List, Liu Hongxia."

Before the woman could respond, Fu Ziyi on the other side of Xiao Li had already called out her name.

Liu Hongxia covered her beautiful red lips and giggled, "Fu Ziyi, you are not thinking of winning all the freshmen in this class by yourself, are you? I tell you, it's impossible."

At the end of her words, there was no smile in Liu Hongxia's voice, only coldness in her expression.

Fu Ziyi smiled faintly and didn't take it to heart, "Fang Ao and Sima Ling are in seclusion. I am the strongest in the inner courtyard now, so of course I get more."

Liu Hongxia sneered, "When there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey becomes king. Others are in seclusion to break through and become Dou Wang, and you are still here to snatch the new students. You deserve to be ranked third on the strong list."

Fu Ziyi shook his head and chuckled, not caring at all. He turned to look at Xiao Li, "I wonder what you think of my proposal, junior. I will graduate in another year, and by then, Sunset Gate will be yours."

Xiao Li shook his head and just swung the Thunder Scale Spear in his hand. His meaning was very clear. He wanted me to agree, but he had to beat me first.

There was an uproar at the scene, and Wei Ming's eyes widened.
"This kid is not kidding, he just came to the inner courtyard and challenged the third place on the strong list, stop it."

The old students around were also whispering, "Yes, it's incredible to beat Zhu Yunqing. How is it possible to beat the third on the strong list across five levels?"

Lin Xiuya and the others looked at each other in bewilderment, some of them speechless. A year ago, they witnessed with their own eyes that Xiao Li won the first place in the qualifiers as soon as he arrived at the outer courtyard. A few hours ago, they also saw him sweep the Fire Energy Hunting Competition.

The current scene looks so familiar...

Li Hao and Chu Junliang, who were hiding in the crowd, had strange expressions on their faces. They had just heard that a freshman had defeated Zhu Yunqing, but they didn't expect that it was Xiao Li who came.

As freshmen of the same class, Xiao Li is already a powerful Dou Ling. On the other hand, the other two, seeing Fu Ziyi and Liu Hongxia, don't even have the confidence to go out and meet Xiao Li. It's really frustrating to compare yourself with others.

Seeing Chu Junliang looking distressed, Li Hao was a little curious, "What's wrong? You look like you're going to die."

Chu Junliang raised his head abruptly, wanting to cry but unable to, "If Xiao Li had gone with us to participate in the Fire Energy Hunting Competition, would we not have been beaten so badly?"

Li Hao was speechless, and twitched his lips. "You are so arrogant that you went straight to the old man, but ended up running into the Black Evil Team, and my fire energy was also robbed." Chu Junliang smiled awkwardly and stopped talking about this topic. "Look, Fu Ziyi has taken action!"

Chu Junliang exclaimed, and Li Hao immediately noticed the situation at the scene.

Fu Ziyi, the third on the strong list, fights against the freshman Xiao Li!

"Great Wilderness Wind-tearing Hand!"

Li Hao took a deep breath, "Fu Ziyi actually used a killing move right at the start. This move, the Great Wilderness Wind-tearing Hand, is a high-level Xuan-level fighting skill. It defeated many people in the competition for the top ranking."

When the Eight-Star Dou Ling took action, the powerful aura made everyone retreat far away for fear of being accidentally injured. Only Liu Hongxia could stay within a hundred meters to watch the battle.

Xiao Li snorted coldly, and the spear in his right hand emitted a flash of lightning. The phantom of a thunder dragon appeared behind him, and a bloody murderous light shot up into the sky.

"Mysterious Thunder Flashes!"

Both were high-level Xuan-grade fighters. When the sharp green wind handprint and the blood-colored dragon collided, Xiao Li groaned and retreated violently, leaving dozens of meters long marks on the ground with his feet. In contrast, Fu Ziyi only took a few steps back.

In the crowd, Zhu Yunqing's face turned pale. "This kid just fought with me, and now he is definitely no match for Fu Ziyi. He is such a reckless boy."

The more Zhu Yunqing looked, the uglier his expression became. Fu Ziyi's speed and strength were both better than his, but his attack was weakened by Xiao Li, and only left a few shallow scars on his body.

"Freak, what a freak! I'm afraid that even if he is hit head-on by me, he will only suffer minor injuries." Zhu Yunqing murmured.

After a collision, Xiao Li raised the lightning spear in his hand high, and the door in front of him opened wide.

Fu Ziyi's eyes condensed, and he slammed out with his right palm, "Great Wilderness Wind-tearing Hand!"

"puff!"

A stream of blood splattered, and Xiao Li staggered back a hundred steps before he recovered his strength. With the Thunder Scale Spear resting on the ground, Xiao Li's breathing became a little heavy.

He is indeed a genuine eight-star Dou Ling, with powerful skills and fighting techniques, as well as excellent combat experience. He is the most difficult opponent Xiao Li has ever met.

“Admit defeat. Your current strength is at most equivalent to a six-star Dou Ling. You can fight across levels at the level of a three-star Dou Ling. I admit that you are very strong. What I said just now is still valid,” Fu Ziyi said in a deep voice.

The way of cultivation has one level after another. At the Dou Ling level, Xiao Li was able to jump five levels and fight against a genius like himself, which was enough to show his talent.

Xiao Li wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his voice still calm, "Come again!"

As soon as he finished speaking, footsteps were heard, and as he took a step forward, Xiao Li's aura suddenly surged.

"Nine Steps to Heaven, First Step."

Xiao Li's aura suddenly surged, and the aura of a five-star Dou Ling dissipated, making Zhu Yunqing, who was also a five-star Dou Ling, feel a little depressed.

"This kid said he used all his strength in the battle with me, but what's going on now? Don't tell me he made a breakthrough in the battle!" Zhu Yunqing roared in his heart, his face full of disbelief.

Xiao Li frowned. It was not enough. The five-star Dou Ling might be slightly stronger than Fu Ziyi, but what he wanted was a big victory so that he could gain a firm foothold in the inner courtyard, not a miserable victory.

"Nine Steps to Heaven, Step Two!"

The nine steps to ascend to heaven are more difficult with each step. Every step will put a greater burden on the body. However, the nine steps to ascend to heaven are also stronger with each step.

With Xiao Li's current physical condition, taking two steps is not a difficult task.

The aura surged again, and Xiao Li's figure seemed to have grown several inches taller.

Five-star Dou Ling... Six-star Dou Ling... Seven-star Dou Ling... Eight-star Dou Ling!
"Now, we two are on the same level."
