Fictional Transcension System - Chapter 60 Battling Lu Xun 1
“Shit!”
With the all so familiar condensing of energy, Lu Fengyi’s body seemed to glow a hazy orange before his cultivation began to rise crazily.

At that moment, every single person’s eyes were on Lu Fengyi, and not only that, but a good portion of them were bulging from their sockets. Smiling to himself, Lu Fengyi did not relent at all, unlocking the cultivation sealing application levels one by one, causing his displayed cultivation to become increasingly higher.

Eyes gleaming with excitement, Lu Fengyi decided that he could leave it at that. If he were to go any higher, it would only become suspicious.
“W-what? How is… impossible!” Lu Xun thanked the gods that he had not attacked first. If he had even dared to engage, not only would be experience the intense rending from the spiralling break through energies, he would most definitely be blasted back by the extreme power that Lu Fengyi was currently radiating.
One must know that although a cultivator would need to consolidate their cultivation after a break through, if their break through was completely successful, not only would the person gain strength from the increase in cultivation, the surrounding energies would also be absorbed, temporarily buffing the cultivator. Of course, this situation was rare, even amongst the higher kingdoms and would only happen to the cream of the crop.
Seeing that the system had not yet notified him of the quest completion, Lu Fengyi felt quite confused. From what he knew, the actions he just did should be counted as a face slap. Even though it wasn’t as resounding as the ones Zhang Xuan performed, it still shouldn’t be omitted.
Shaking his head, Lu Fengyi stepped forward with a smile, “Am I competent enough to fight you yet?”
Finally awakening from their stunned states, the audience erupted into loud discussions all around.
“How is this possible? He cultivates as easy as I eat everyday. No, even easier!”
“This is the power of an Elite Student? Isn’t this too terrifying?”
“No, even Elite Students shouldn’t be this powerful. Lu Fengyi must a special case that exceeds the boundaries of ordinary understanding!”
Lu Xun felt quite stifled on the inside. Moments ago, he had thought that Lu Fengyi would be crushed by his hands, and yet now, the situation was completely reversed. If it were any other student, Lu Xun would be burning up in embarrassment, however since it came from the Elite Student of the academy, even if it were a little exaggerated, such was only expected from Lu Fengyi.
Clearing his mind of the negative thoughts that swarmed him, Lu Xun gathered up his courage before moving into a battle stance once more. Even though Lu Fengyi had indeed powered up, that did not mean that he knew how to wield his new found cultivation. If he was able to capitalise upon this fact, there was a chance that he could catch the Elite Student off guard and possibly win the duel by a hair’s breadth.
Without a word, Lu Xun channelled energy into his meridians before muttering under his breath, “Twin Dragon’s Strike!”
Almost instantaneously, Lu Xun’s figure disappeared from his original position, launching through the air as he lunched towards Lu Fengyi.
“Lu laoshi initiated!”
“Such a powerful move. Even if I were to spend my life studying, I wouldn’t be able to comprehend it.”
“It looks like Lu Fengyi may be in trouble.”
Although Lu Fengyi did have a cultivation of a Zhizun level expert, for the sake of a fair fight, he had suppressed his cultivation down to that of a Pixue realm pinnacle. If he were to use the full extend of his cultivation, it wouldn’t even be a question of whether he could defeat Lu Xun or not, but rather how far he could blow Lu Xun back with an attack.
Seeing the attack before him, Lu Fengyi’s instincts told him to back away, however knowing that there would be a catch to the attack, he decided to hold his ground. While it was true that Zhang Xuan had imparted him the kicking technique, if he were to use it here, who knew if Lu Xun could even live after taking the attack. Rather, Lu Fengyi made use of his natural instincts and skills that he had developed during his taekwondo classes to fight.
Sending a powerful kick towards the fast-approaching Lu Xun, Lu Fengyi could only hope that his martial arts could hold up against the refined techniques of a true cultivator.
As he had expected, Lu Fengyi’s kick was not able to last against the Twin Dragon’s Strike, causing him to be knocked back several steps and forced into a defensive position. Seeing Lu Fengyi fall back, Lu Xun was filled with confidence as he found his opportunity to victory. It was obvious by sight that Lu Fengyi had not learnt any martial techniques to complement his cultivation, meaning that his fighting prowess would be many folds weaker than normal cultivators of the same realm.
Taking the initiative to launch a counter attack, Lu Fengyi dashed forwards before sending a waist height kick towards Lu Xun, this time infusing his attack with a larger portion of his energy. Sensing the imminent danger, Lu Xun did not dare to let down his guard, quickly rotating his hands before forming an energy barrier around him.
“That’s the famed defensive technique, Coiling Dragon Hands!”
“To think that Lu Xun would use it on a student.”
“How powerful is Lu Fengyi for him to force out such a technique?”
As expected, Lu Fengyi’s leg rebounded right off the barrier, the excessive force spinning him around. Lu Xun smiled as he prepared to counterattack, however his gut tightened once more with that anxious feeling that he had felt before. Stopping himself from dispelling the Coiling Dragon Hands, Lu Xun tensed his muscles, ready for the danger he felt from his instincts.
After years of training, Lu Fengyi knew that if one’s attack was blocked, they would be left vulnerable to counterattacks, however if one was able to manipulate the reflexive force from the blocked attack to form a second attack, if would be extremely devastating to the opponent. Making use of the inertia from rebounding off the barrier, Lu Fengyi swung his leg in a powerful roundhouse kick, heading towards Lu Xun’s left side.
Just before his leg hit, Lu Fengyi noticed that the shield had not be dispelled. Sighing to himself, he could only reflect on the difference in experience between those who cultivated and fought everyday, and those who sat in a chair, writing about cultivators.
Swinging his leg into the shield, an enormous dent appeared before the barrier collapsed under the intense pressure, forcing Lu Xun back several steps and a trail of blood appearing at the corner of his mouth.
The originally lively audience was silenced immediately by the scene before them.
