Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

As soon as Su Qian finished speaking, Xiao Yan suddenly stomped on the gravel in the air. As the gravel turned into powder, he rushed towards Zi Yan at a speed that could not be captured by the naked eye, causing Zi Yan's expression to change drastically.

His speed?!

Bang!

Zi Yan followed her instinct and hurriedly raised her hand to block. Her arm trembled continuously after being hit hard. It was obvious that Xiao Yan's strength was not at the same level as before. This was not something that could be solved by just adding a little more strength.

At this moment, Zi Yan vaguely understood in her heart what Xiao Yan's purpose was in scattering these rubbles around her.

Puff!

Another heavy blow hit Zi Yan's back, and before Zi Yan could react, another kick hit her shoulder hard.

And he himself was unable to even catch a glimpse of Xiao Yan's figure!

At this moment, Zi Yan finally understood why Xiao Yan put away the Purple Cloud Wings.

Although they both fly in the air, the help they bring to the battle is completely different. Not only are they more flexible, they are also faster and more elusive.

In the eyes of the audience, Xiao Yan was like a black feather arrow, stepping on the gravel and shuttling back and forth around Yu Ziyan. Zi Yan's petite body was like a fallen leaf swaying in the wind, being hit back and forth and left and right, and she had no strength to fight back.

I can't find him. I can't find him at all.

Zi Yan, who was constantly being beaten, was terrified. It was not so much that she could not find Xiao Yan, but rather that she could not catch his trajectory. His speed was so fast that she could not follow him with her naked eyes.

No! If we continue like this, we will lose!

Zi Yan's heart trembled, and she simply gave up her vision and hearing, closed her eyes and followed her instinct.

A few seconds later, Zi Yan suddenly opened her eyes, turned around without thinking, raised her fist and smashed out.

And the person her fist was facing was Xiao Yan who attacked from behind!

This is the intuition of being a Warcraft!

Just when Zi Yan thought that this attack would hit the target, her fist went through Xiao Yan's body without any hindrance. In her surprised eyes, Xiao Yan's figure turned into a wisp of black smoke and slowly dissipated.

(This is a phantom?!)

Zi Yan reacted immediately and looked around suddenly.

Where are the people? Where are the others???

Suddenly, a strong sense of crisis came from above. Zi Yan's heart trembled. She looked up suddenly and saw a huge stone made of rubble from the arena hovering above her. Xiao Yan had stood steadily on the stone without her knowing when.

When was that?!

Zi Yan couldn't help but ask herself this question, and then immediately recalled the chain that was swinging around before Xiao Yan engaged her in close combat.

So the main purpose was not to attack himself, but to cast this stone? !

But so what!

I even broke the arena, so how hard is it to break a pile of broken stones?!

Zi Yan was so excited that Xiao Yan, who was standing on the boulder, slowly raised his knee and then stomped down hard. The rock rushed towards Zi Yan below like a meteorite.

Zi Yan did not dodge or evade, but looked confidently at the boulder that was getting closer and closer to her.

When the boulder was only five meters away from him, an indescribable feeling of uneasiness suddenly surged in his heart.

I even broke the intact arena, so what could a huge rock made of rubble mean to me?

How could Xiao Yan not know what he knew? Did he spend so much effort to create such a huge rock that he could break again?

Zi Yan's mind had never worked so fast before. She finally decided to follow the uneasiness in her heart and flapped her wings of fighting spirit to hide aside.

However, it's too late!

The boulder was already close to her head, leaving Zi Yan with no way to avoid it. She could only use all her strength to smash against the boulder.

Just as she thought, this boulder was even more fragile than the previous arena and was easily pierced by her small fist.

However, the next moment, Zi Yan immediately felt the suffocating and terrifying aura mixed in the center of the boulder. The purple and azure flames continued to collide violently in the center of the boulder and were about to explode.

The premonition of death instantly flooded Zi Yan's mind!

Zi Yan didn't know what death was, but at this moment she experienced it firsthand, the feeling of powerlessness of being unable to do anything.

As long as those two flames erupt, even the remains of him will be evaporated in an instant.

At this moment, all the strength in Zi Yan's body seemed to be drained away. She stood still in mid-air, instinctively closing her eyes, her heart filled with deathly silence.

However, the expected pain did not come, and after a long time Zi Yan opened her eyes in confusion.

What he saw was Xiao Yan gasping for breath and rubble falling around him. The fire that frightened him was also slowly flowing into Xiao Yan's body.

Zi Yan raised her little head and looked at Xiao Yan's indifferent face, staring at him blankly for a long time.

Finally, the little mouth opened and closed, expressing what was in her heart.

"I lost"

"The victory is decided!"

At the same time that Zi Yan admitted defeat, Su Qian immediately appeared between the two of them and announced it so loudly, his face covered in cold sweat, and he looked at Xiao Yan with shock in his eyes.

Two kinds of strange fire! At such a young age, he actually possessed two kinds of strange fire! If it was him, he wouldn't be able to take the boulder without any injuries, let alone Zi Yan!

He almost couldn't help but take action just now. If the huge rock had exploded, not only Zi Yan, but the entire venue would have been sucked into it!

The students in the audience didn't dare to breathe, even though Xiao Yan dispersed the boulders and took back the flames entangled in them at the last moment, and Zi Yan seemed to admit defeat inexplicably.

However, no one raised any objection.

Everyone could feel that if Xiao Yan had not dispersed the huge rock and taken back the flame, none of them would have been spared!

Xiao Yan's condition at this moment was not very good. He was gasping for breath violently, and his strength quickly dropped from Dou Wang to one-star Dou Ling. He barely flapped his purple cloud wings to stay in the air, looking quite embarrassed.

But in the entire arena, no one dared to underestimate him!

Xiao Yan took a deep breath, trying his best to calm his breath, and smiled softly at the dazed Zi Yan. Su Qian's eyes flickered, and his love for talent rose in his heart, and he said to Xiao Yan.

"Xiao Yan, I will now allow you to enter the inner courtyard as an exception. Do you agree?"

Although Su Qian's words were sudden, none of the inner courtyard students who came to watch the game protested, including Lin Xiuya and other three who were ranked high on the strength list.

Xiao Yan had even defeated the female Tyrannosaurus who was ranked first on the power list. If he was not qualified to enter the inner courtyard, then all the inner courtyard students present would have to go back to the outer courtyard.

"I am extremely grateful to Elder Su Qian for his appreciation of me." Xiao Yan raised his hand and saluted Su Qian solemnly, then changed the subject, "But, please allow me to refuse. Xiao Yan's purpose in participating in this competition is not to enter the inner courtyard, but to prove my strength to everyone, for my own purpose."

"Your purpose?"

Su Qian raised his eyebrows in confusion. Xiao Yan did not answer immediately. He turned to face the students in the audience and spoke calmly in a voice that everyone could hear.

"Everyone, I am dueling with Zi Yan here today in order to win over students to help me with what I am going to do next."

When Xiao Yan was in Wutan City, he understood that without strength, no one would listen to him.

The reason why he agreed to duel with Zi Yan and asked Xiao Mei to spread the news in the inner courtyard was to let everyone know that he was stronger than Zi Yan, who was ranked first in the inner courtyard! His words would also carry enough weight!

"Why do you all become stronger? Do you really want to become stronger? Or are you forced to become stronger in order to protect yourself?"

Xiao Yan's question made everyone confused at first, and then they fell silent.

There are people who want to become stronger just for the sake of becoming stronger, and Wu Hao is a living example.

But this is by no means the majority.

Wu Hao can find pleasure in becoming stronger. His life is about becoming stronger, but other people are different.

Why become stronger?

Because everyone around you is getting stronger, you have to become stronger too.

You can call it a lack of security or call it a herd mentality, everyone is swept up by the environment and forced to become stronger.

Geniuses are a minority. How many mediocre people are physically and mentally exhausted on the road to becoming stronger, and don’t know where their future should go.

Before, no one had ever thought about this issue because there was no such awareness.

However, after the "Biography of Xiao Ying" was broadcast in the inner and outer courtyards, this question naturally emerged in everyone's mind, and they began to slowly doubt the matter of "strength".

Is it really meaningful to spend your entire life trying to become stronger?

Qiu Feng from the Admiring the Strong faction and Ye Nuan from the Fearing the Strong faction also remained silent and looked at Xiao Yan quietly. They vaguely guessed that Xiao Yan would give them the answer that he had not given them before.

Xiao Yan glanced at the silent arena and spoke again.

"For a long time, I have hated the law of the jungle in this world, and I hate the fact that the strong can arbitrarily deprive the weak of everything."

"The weak hope to have their own life, but in order not to be arbitrarily deprived by the strong, they work hard to become stronger. No matter how hard the weak try to accumulate everything in their life, it may vanish because of the strong's arbitrary thoughts."

"This is all because everyone in this world assumes that the law of the jungle is right!"

Xiao Yan spoke passionately, revealing the essence of the matter.

The strong-loving faction said that because this is how the world is, improving strength is everything.

Those who fear the strong say that since the world is already like this, we cannot just improve our strength.

There is nothing wrong with either of them. The problem itself is in this world! This is the environment of this world!

Except for those who truly want to become stronger, everyone else becomes stronger just to protect the life they don't yet have.

In their view, it is natural for the strong to deprive the weak of everything, so they should not have their own life before they have enough strength, otherwise it is likely to be burned to ashes in an instant.

Su Qian stood beside Xiao Yan, listening quietly without stopping him.

After the broadcast of "The Biography of Xiao Ying", he and Hu Qian had also reflected deeply on why their Canaan Academy had educated batch after batch of students.

Will these students wantonly bully the weak when they become strong? Or do they simply want to avoid being bullied by the strong?

If it was the former, wouldn't the Canaan College that he had been defending become a hotbed for evildoers? Then was there really any need for the Canaan College to exist?

At this time, Xiao Yan's voice echoed in the arena again.

"It is a truth that the strong are respected in this world, and the strong should be noticed and respected."

"But, we should never look down upon the weak! The weak deserve to have a life that they can be proud of! The strong have no right to deprive the weak of everything at will!"

This was the reason why Xiao Yan had to defeat Zi Yan in front of so many people.

When a weak person says these words, it will only make people laugh, but when a strong person in their mind says these words, their hearts will be touched!

"I will never claim that I am right, but I will never admit that the law of the jungle is right!"

"I will do my best to deny the facts generally acknowledged by the world. I sincerely hope that friends with the same aspirations will join me in changing the law of the jungle in this world."

"Even if I may end up with nothing, I will never back down until I have squeezed my last drop of blood out of this journey!"

“This is my righteous path!”

Chapter 415 Two Years

Jia Ma Empire, Yun Lan Sect.

In the dim hall, a delicate little girl hid behind a stone pillar with her mouth tightly covered. Her eyes were full of tension and her heart was tight.

Suddenly, heavy footsteps were heard at the door of the hall, causing the little girl to tremble and her breathing to stop, for fear of being discovered by the other party.

The hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

After a while, the heavy voice of an older man echoed in the hall.

“It’s not here.”

Soon after, the footsteps left the hall, moving farther and farther away, and the hall returned to silence again. After a long time, the little girl let down her guard slightly, carefully poked her head out from behind the stone pillar, and glanced at the empty hall.

Immediately, he breathed a sigh of relief.

And at the moment when the little girl relaxed, two big hands suddenly stretched out from behind and grabbed her two little arms.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

The sudden fright made the little girl scream, and then she was lifted up.

After screaming, the little girl turned her head slightly, pouted her lips and looked at the man behind her unhappily.

The former great elder of the Yunlan Sect, Yun Leng.

"Grandpa Yunling, how did you find me?"

"Haha~ Grandpa Yun Leng is a Dou Wang. How can you hide your little tricks from Grandpa?" Yun Leng laughed loudly, his eyes full of kindness, looking at the little girl in front of him, "Xiao Xiao, dear child, it's time to go to bed. Don't run around."

"No no no! I don't want to sleep yet!"
