Chapter 44
As soon as these words were spoken.
Everyone present was shocked.
Facing an inner disciple of the Dragon Tiger Sect, the Ninth Princess was being so audacious. Did she not know how powerful the young talents of the three great sects were?
“Hmph! That brat doesn’t even know how she’s going to die later!”
The yellow-robed old man said coldly.
“The Ninth Princess is overestimating herself. The outcome of this battle is hard to predict.”
Lin Zhengquan shook his head slightly.
“Big sister will definitely win, she will!”
Ye Ruoshui looked at the figure in bright red on the field, her eyes filled with trust.
Having been repeatedly met with cold words, Wang Bao, as a sect genius, could no longer contain his anger. He let out a cold snort.
“Hmph! You arrogant little girl, you’re digging your own grave!”
As soon as the words fell.
A massive hammer appeared in Wang Bao’s hand, heavy and imposing, with purple arcs of electricity swirling around the hammerhead, exuding an extraordinary aura.
Without a moment’s hesitation, Wang Bao took the initiative, charging toward Lin Wanqiu.
Although he was tall and burly, wielding a heavy weapon, his movements were extremely swift. In the blink of an eye, he charged in front of Xiao Minghuang.
The massive hammer, weighing ten thousand pounds, was raised high, seemingly capable of smashing mountains. Faint arcs of light flickered at the hammer’s head, crackling in the void with a continuous “crackling” sound.
“Martial Nephew Wang’s cultivation has already reached the seventh level of Qi Refining, just one step away from the eighth level. Moreover, he has immersed himself in the Lightning Hammer Technique for many years and is on the verge of achieving minor mastery. How can a mere young girl resist? The outcome of this battle is already decided!”
The yellow-robed elder stroked his beard, a look of satisfaction on his face.
Although he had paid the price of a Tiger Bone Strengthening Pill to secure Wang Bao’s assistance, if he could use this opportunity to return to the sect and even establish a connection with the True Disciple, then no matter the cost, it would be worth it.
Not only the people of the Golden Elephant Kingdom but even those from Beiyang City did not believe that Xiao Minghuang could win.
Lin Zhengquan’s steps faltered slightly, his eyes flickering, fists clenched tightly, as if he were about to rush forward at any moment to save Xiao Minghuang from being crushed.
However.
Just as the massive hammer was about to descend.
Xiao Minghuang moved.
In a flash, she appeared behind Wang Bao, a radiant golden sword materializing in her hand. The sword was three feet long, its entire body flowing with mysterious patterns, like a star projected onto the ground, dazzlingly beautiful.
“Seven Star Sword·Yaoguang!”
Xiao Minghuang shouted softly, and a golden sword qi, over ten feet long, suddenly appeared in the void, stirring up countless spiritual energy, causing rocks to fly and dust to fill the air.
The moment this sword qi appeared, Wang Bao’s expression changed drastically. He felt as if his entire body was locked by a cold, desolate aura, as if he would be shattered into pieces in the next moment.
“What kind of technique is this!”
Wang Bao frowned, immediately stepping forward, trying to escape the lock of the sword qi.
But.
The golden sword qi was extremely fast, slicing through the void, suddenly descending.
Wang Bao had only taken a few steps when he felt the sword qi closing in on his back. With no other choice, he turned around.
He roared, gathering all his spiritual energy into his palms, and fiercely swung the hammer!
“Lightning Strike!”
In an instant.
Boom!
Sword and hammer collided!
The two clashed, producing a violent explosion, the sound resonating for dozens of miles. Countless trees were snapped in half, rocks tumbled, streams churned, and sand and stones flew everywhere.
As the dust settled.
Xiao Minghuang stood calmly in place, her robes as pristine as ever, untouched by dust.
Wang Bao, however, was not so fortunate.
He was covered in dust, his clothes tattered, his entire body filthy, his face pale, clearly having suffered greatly in the clash.
Seeing this.
The yellow-robed elder’s eyes widened, filled with disbelief.
“How is this possible?”
On the side of Beiyang City, everyone’s faces lit up with joy, especially Ye Ruoshui, who was practically jumping up and down to cheer for Xiao Minghuang.
“Your Highness, keep it up!”
In the arena.
Xiao Minghuang remained focused, unaffected by the outside chatter. She spoke calmly:
“This is the strength of an inner disciple of the Dragon Tiger Sect. It seems I overestimated you after all.”
Wang Bao’s face turned red and then white, looking extremely unpleasant. He never expected that a wandering cultivator girl from the Thirty-Six Kingdoms, seemingly no more than ten years old, could possess such formidable strength.
“I was careless just now, but next time, you won’t be so lucky!”
Wang Bao took a deep breath, and an even more ferocious aura surged through his entire body.
In the void, a series of crackling sounds erupted, resembling the roar of thunder in the sky, striking fear into the hearts of all who heard it!
“Thunderous Hammer Strike!”
As the words fell.
Wang Bao’s face turned pale, and all his spiritual power was instantly drained!
He swung the massive hammer in his hand, striking out with lightning speed.
The giant hammer transformed into a thick purple lightning bolt, as thick as a barrel, roaring through the void with a destructive force that overwhelmed the entire scene, causing everyone to widen their eyes in astonishment!
“Although Nephew Wang is only at the seventh level of the Qi Refining Realm, by fully utilizing the Yellow Tier high-grade treasure, the Thunder Hammer, with the 《Dragon-Tiger Body Tempering Technique》, he unleashed a full-powered strike. Even a martial artist at the peak of the Qi Refining Realm would find it difficult to resist. The Ninth Princess of Xia is undoubtedly doomed to lose!”
The old man in yellow declared decisively.
On the side of the Golden Elephant Kingdom.
“I must take action!”
In this situation, Lin Zhengquan tightly gripped his spear and stepped forward, ready to strike down the thunderous attack.
But the next scene made him halt in his tracks. He gazed at the distant sky, his face filled with astonishment, his pupils brimming with disbelief.
For there, in Xiao Minghuang’s eyes, a golden light suddenly appeared, as if stars were shining. She raised her hand and pointed to the sky, as if she could summon the stars themselves!
“Stars in broad daylight! Yaoguang!”
In an instant.
In the vast, cloudless blue sky, a faint glimmer suddenly appeared. Even the radiant sun could not overshadow its brilliance. It traversed the endless void and directly descended upon Xiao Minghuang.
This starlight was infinitely dazzling, carrying an indescribable, supreme power—ancient and mysterious, radiant and beautiful, yet filled with boundless killing intent. In a single moment, it amplified Xiao Minghuang’s aura by more than tenfold!
Under the astonished gazes of countless onlookers, Xiao Minghuang gently raised her hand. At the tip of her slender, jade-like finger, a three-foot-long golden sword beam suddenly appeared.
The next moment.
The golden sword beam expanded several times, reaching several zhang in length, and in an instant, it slashed down through the air!
“Seven Stars Yaoguang Sword!”
Xiao Minghuang softly chanted, as if singing. Her voice, clear and melodious like a flowing spring, carried within it an undercurrent of boundless killing intent.
Boom!
The Yaoguang Sword’s golden radiance illuminated the heavens, its pressure completely overwhelming the purple lightning.
Hum!
The moment the two collided, the lightning completely dissipated. The black-purple hammer fell to the ground, its spiritual essence dissolved.
The sword beam’s residual power did not diminish, and it continued to slash toward Wang Bao.
Wang Bao’s face turned deathly pale. He had already exhausted all his spiritual power by fully activating his top-grade Yellow-tier treasure. Now, he was at the end of his strength and could no longer continue the fight.
Of course, he was utterly incapable of withstanding this unstoppable sword strike!
Moreover!
Even if he were at his peak, facing this sword strike imbued with the power of the stars, he would have no chance of victory!
Because the power of this strike far exceeded the realm of Qi Refining. Even an ordinary Spring Realm martial artist would have to avoid its sharp edge!
But at this very moment.
A brilliant golden light suddenly erupted, and a surge of vigorous blood energy surged forth, overshadowing the dazzling golden sword beam.
Boom!!!
A massive explosion suddenly rang out. The Yaoguang Sword beam that had slashed down through the air was actually shattered mid-flight!
In the blink of an eye.
The light dissipated.
There stood the old man in yellow, his peak Spring Realm aura fully unleashed. His solid protective spiritual energy shielded Wang Bao behind him. His upper robe had completely exploded, revealing his muscular physique. His entire body was suffused with a faint golden light, exuding an extraordinary and divine aura.
But what drew even more attention.
Were the two particularly striking bloodstains on the old man’s palms.
These two wounds ran through his entire hands, and fresh blood continuously dripped to the ground, staining the earth crimson.
Although he had crushed Xiao Minghuang’s Yaoguang Sword beam with his bare hands, his palms had been pierced, and blood flowed from the wounds.
At this moment.
The old man’s expression turned extremely grim, and he coldly spoke:
“You little brat, how dare you injure me!”
Hearing this.
Xiao Minghuang remained calm and composed, a smile on her face, though her eyes showed no joy. She softly replied:
“So what if I injured you? Today, I will slay you!”

But I still want to save myself. Below is a PY book:
《Starting in the Hidden Cloud Village, Building Gundams with a Simulator》
Arrived in the Naruto world, and I have a cheat, but why is the cheat a Gundam world simulator?
Moreover, why the Hidden Cloud Village? Don’t normal transmigrators go to the Leaf Village?
Ah, whatever!
Fake Gundam, Susanoo; real Gundam, Ball (crossed out) Zaku (crossed out) Unicorn. What kind of sparks will these two things collide with?
“I’ll control the firepower, Han will control the mobility, Yugito, the power is up to you!”
“Ha, we of the Hidden Cloud are not like you sneaky Akatsuki, we are the righteous villains!”
“Ore wa! Gundam da!”
