Chapter 83: Fierce Duel

  Seeing the Thunder Element wrapped around Du Fei's hands, Nian Sheng also became vigilant and shifted his footsteps. Du Fei, however, looked at Nian Sheng with a confident expression as he slowly moved forward.

  "What's wrong? I thought you weren't afraid?" Du Fei asked.

  "Less nonsense, watch this." Nian Sheng said as he launched an attack on Du Fei. He sprinted towards Du Fei's position and unleashed a flurry of punches and kicks. Unbeknownst to Nian Sheng, Du Fei reveled in the back-and-forth exchange of blows, using his lightning-fast limbs to deflect Nian Sheng's attacks without showing any intention of counterattacking. In reality, Du Fei had simple intentions - he just wanted to have fun with Nian Sheng, engaging in a playful fight. He said as much, claiming that among their peers, he was willing to admit being second-best, but no one dared claim to be first. Although Nian Sheng's cultivation level was several ranks higher than Du Fei's, and even surpassed him by an entire realm, Du Fei's innate talent and the skills he had honed in the Demon Mountain Range allowed him to hold his own against Nian Sheng without falling behind.

  Nian Sheng saw that he couldn't defeat Du Fei, so he gave up on the close combat and flew back to the ground, panting heavily. Du Fei looked at Nian Sheng's sweaty face and smiled slyly: "Hehe, you're satisfied now, right? Now it's my turn, watch out!" As soon as he finished speaking, Du Fei jumped forward quickly and arrived in front of Nian Sheng, punching him with a loud crash. Nian Sheng was shocked and flipped backward several times to avoid the punch. Just as he stabilized his body, Du Fei kicked again, sweeping horizontally across the ground. Nian Sheng couldn't dodge in time and was kicked to the ground by Du Fei. However, Nian Sheng was no ordinary cultivator and quickly used one hand to prop himself up and jump back up. He then kicked at Du Fei, and a gust of wind elements wrapped around his leg transformed into a sharp blade shooting towards Du Fei. Du Fei was startled by the sudden attack and swung his right hand, which was covered in lightning elements, to block the incoming wind blade. The two opposing elements collided violently, producing a loud "bang" sound. Du Fei raised his left hand to cover his face, and at this moment, the lightning element on his right hand had disappeared, leaving his sleeve torn into shreds. His entire right arm was exposed in the air. Du Fei lowered his left hand and glared fiercely at Nian Sheng, who stood opposite him, also furious. Although the explosion earlier had blown Du Fei back, its power was actually quite weak and couldn't harm him at all. Nian Sheng's leg, which had been kicked by Du Fei earlier, now felt unresponsive and kept trembling. This was why Nian Sheng didn't continue to attack Du Fei. He never expected that the force of Du Fei's kick would be so great. If it weren't for Nian Sheng being several levels higher than Du Fei, the kick would have been enough to shatter his leg bones.

  "Your close combat skills are not bad, if it were just a one-on-one fight, I wouldn't be able to beat you. But don't forget, a true controller is not just a martial artist." Nian Sheng said through gritted teeth, his hands constantly changing gestures. Du Fei saw the movement of Nian Sheng's hands and was taken aback, quickly flipping backwards to create distance between them. At this time, Nian Sheng's martial skills had already reached their peak. Du Fei shouted loudly: "Look out, Water Prison Blast!" Suddenly, water began to seep out from around Nian Sheng, flowing rapidly towards Du Fei's position. Du Fei saw the water flow coming and dodged it with a few flips, but the water instantly transformed into snake-like shapes that seemed to have eyes, chasing after Du Fei. Du Fei quickly escaped again, but the water snakes continued to pursue him, no matter how he tried to evade them. Just as Du Fei jumped into the air, Nian Sheng rapidly launched another attack, a small tornado striking towards Du Fei. Du Fei dodged it with a quick movement, but Nian Sheng quickly controlled the water snakes, which suddenly multiplied into dozens of snakes that wrapped around Du Fei's body, forming a huge water ball that trapped Du Fei inside.

  Du Fei was trapped inside, Du Fei kept rolling around in the water ball, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't cause any damage to the water ball. At this time, Nian Sheng was also constantly injecting water elements into the water ball from the side, making the volume of the water ball bigger and bigger, and the water pressure inside the water ball was also getting bigger and bigger, pressing Du Fei to the point where he could hardly turn over, his painful expression told everyone that he was in trouble.

  "Haha, little brother really didn't disappoint me. I see this kid is in a predicament now, even if I were to be imprisoned in the water dungeon, it would still be hard for him to break free. I wonder if you're going to die this time." The annual champion on the stage saw Du Fei being trapped by the water ball and revealed a sinister smile. Those people who usually fawned over the annual champion also had a schadenfreude expression as they looked at Du Fei wrapped in the water ball in the arena.

  At this time, Dufei in the water was also being compressed by the water pressure, making him more and more uncomfortable. His expression was one of pain, and he couldn't breathe at all in the water. Some water elements under Yangsheng's control began to enter Dufei's body, and Dufei could feel those water elements entering his body, so he used his internal energy to resist them. At this time, Dufei's face had become somewhat flushed, but this redness was not natural - it was caused by the water ball that Yangsheng had used to suffocate him. In fact, Dufei's ability to hold his breath was quite good, but Yangsheng kept pouring water into Dufei's breathing space, making him feel so uncomfortable that he thought he was going to die, which is why Dufei looked like this.

  At this time, Du Fei felt his breath getting weaker and weaker, and the water pressure inside his body was constantly increasing. However, he didn't panic at all, and instead closed his eyes, sat cross-legged in the air, and floated within the water sphere. He circulated the Tianyuan Jue technique's internal energy throughout his body, allowing his vital energy to tour his entire body under its guidance. His vital energy continuously countered the water pressure, and gradually, a layer of pale blue light enveloped Du Fei, forming a protective membrane that blocked out the massive water elements surrounding him.

  Yan Sheng was shocked by Du Fei's strange appearance at this time, and he gritted his teeth as he continued to inject water elements into the sphere. The sphere had already grown to over ten meters in diameter, but its expansion showed no signs of stopping. Yan Sheng's intentions were clear: he wouldn't give Du Fei any chance, and he wanted to strangle him within the water sphere. Du Fei also understood Yan Sheng's intentions, and he continued to release his vital energy to counter the water pressure.

  "Ah!" Du Fei let out a loud roar, his hands suddenly stretching out, and the faint blue glow around him surged instantly. With a "bang", the water ball burst open, and Nian Sheng was also forced to retreat several meters before stabilizing his figure, revealing an incredulous expression as he stared at Du Fei. However, Du Fei didn't pay any attention to Nian Sheng's gaze, instead panting heavily on the ground for a few breaths. The burst water ball instantly turned into flowing water that flowed across the arena, and at this moment, the entire arena was filled with water that had risen to chest level between the two men.

  "Good kid, you're really something, actually able to forcefully break open all of my Water Prison Bullets." Yanshen said begrudgingly.

  Du Fei was now in a state of exhaustion, looking at Nian Sheng. Indeed, just now Du Fei had to use this move to forcibly break through Nian Sheng's water prison, but it also consumed most of Du Fei's yuanqi. If not, Du Fei would have been suffocated to death in the water prison within tens of seconds. There was no other way, and he had to choose this extravagant method to deal with it. As for Nian Sheng, his situation was not much better either. Being forcibly broken out of the water prison by Du Fei, Nian Sheng was also severely injured by his own martial skills and did not dare to make any rash moves.

  "This kid still has some skills, he can even force his way through his brother's water prison, it seems that he also has a brush, but now he is just the last straw, his energy consumption is almost gone, although his brother was injured, but dealing with him should not be a problem." At this time, Nian Jue was also shocked by Du Fei's performance earlier.

  Both of them were panting heavily to catch their breath, and they stood still for about a minute. Yang Sheng's complexion was slightly better than Du Fei's, but Du Fei's breathing had also become much more stable. However, Du Fei suddenly burst out laughing: "Hahaha..."

  "You can still laugh when death is imminent, then die!" Nian Sheng said viciously. But how could Nian Sheng know what Du Fei was thinking in his heart? At this moment of life and death, Du Fei had experienced too much. In the past, when he was tempered in the Devil's Mountain Range, he often experienced such scenes, but Du Fei had never been afraid, instead, it made the blood in his body boil, and he would burst out with unimaginable strength. At this moment, Du Fei also completely suppressed the fear in his heart, and his beastly nature was ignited. His body seemed to have endless energy, and he suddenly jumped out of the water, charging towards Nian Sheng. Nian Sheng was shocked by Du Fei's transformation, but at this time, Du Fei had already rushed to Nian Sheng's face. The two began to fight continuously in the water, and Nian Sheng was not willing to show weakness either. His hands were instantly wrapped in wind elements, and he struck Du Fei fiercely. But Du Fei only used his fists with a ferocious beast-like expression to strike back at Nian Sheng. The two fought so hard that the surrounding water splashed everywhere, and the audience could only see the water splashing around them, unable to see what was happening to Du Fei. They fought like this for about two or three minutes, and the water in the arena finally stopped splashing.

  At this time, the audience in the field were shocked by the two men's fierce battle and stood up, the whole field was silent and watched the situation of the two men. This can be said to be the most intuitive and cruel confrontation they have ever seen in a match. At this time, the two people on the stage were quietly watching, motionless. Du Fei was already in tatters, covered in bloodstains, and the blood flowing out made the water on the stage slightly reddish. Just now, in the fierce battle with Nian Sheng, Du Fei was cut all over by Nian Sheng's wind blade, but these were nothing new to Du Fei. And Nian Sheng was not much better off, being beaten by Du Fei, at this time Nian Sheng's whole body was bruised and swollen.

  "With a splash", only to see that Nian Sheng, due to his severe injuries, could no longer support himself and fainted into the water. Du Fei saw Nian Sheng fall down and also burst out laughing: "Hahaha..."
