"What are you talking about? Spiritual energy?" Wu Tian was stunned when he heard Yagami Yuriko's words.
He never would have imagined that Yagami Yuriko's challenge would be this. It was too unexpected.
Yagami Yuriko continued, "That's right, spiritual energy."
"If I'm not mistaken, the Saintess placed the token of her favor on you back then."
"And since you already possess such medical skills, it means you have taken the inheritance within. You possess the inheritance of the God of Medicine. In terms of medical skills, I cannot be your opponent, so I want to compete with you in spiritual energy. What do you think?"
Wu Tian felt that Yagami Yuriko really didn't consider the occasion when she spoke, revealing his secret so casually. For this, he nervously glanced around. Seeing that no one else had understood, he said, "I have already given you the decision-making power. If you want to compete in spiritual energy, then I have no problem with that."
"But I must warn you first. If you think my spiritual energy cultivation is low, then you are mistaken."
"In terms of spiritual energy, I am not that easy to deal with."
Yagami Yuriko nodded and said, "That's for the best. Otherwise, this competition would be too boring."
Speaking of this, she turned to the referee and said, "Please bring two silver needles."
The referee was stunned and couldn't help but say, "Two silver needles? Miss Yagami, did I hear correctly? What can two silver needles do?"
Wu Tian knew what Yagami Yuriko meant, so he also said, "We have already agreed on the competition content. Just bring the silver needles."
The referee looked at the two of them, his face full of confusion. But he didn't ask any further questions. Soon, he had someone deliver two silver needles and gave one to Wu Tian and the other to Yagami Yuriko.
Everyone had no idea what these two people on the stage were trying to do.
Wu Tian played with the silver needle and said, "Are you sure you want to compete with this?"
"Spiritual energy combat is not easy to control. If anything happens, don't blame me."
Yagami Yuriko nodded and said, "Don't worry. If you injure me, it will be your strength. I won't be unreasonable."
"Are you ready? If you are ready, then... let's begin now."
As her voice fell, a sharp coldness suddenly erupted from Yagami Yuriko's dark eyes! Immediately, she shot the silver needle towards Wu Tian!
Wu Tian's reaction was also extremely fast. The moment Yagami Yuriko made her move, his wrist flicked slightly, and he sent out the silver needle in his hand. The two silver needles collided in mid-air in an instant!
At the same time, a powerful aura erupted from both of them! Wu Tian's body lit up with dazzling golden light, while Yagami Yuriko's body also flashed with black light. With a bang, the entire venue was swept by this fierce aura! Everyone lost their footing and was sent flying! A strong wind howled through the venue, as if the entire ceiling would be blown away. They barely managed to stand by holding onto the pillars, and when they saw the state of Wu Tian and Yagami Yuriko, their eyeballs almost popped out! Intense light enveloped both of them! The light collided with each other, and at the point of impact, the two silver needles sparked fiercely! Everyone felt like they were dreaming. Was this still a medical competition? Wasn't this a magical battle?!
In the center of the venue, Wu Tian was also somewhat surprised. He hadn't held back, so the amount of spiritual energy he exerted was not low. Yet, in such a situation, Yagami Yuriko could still match him evenly. This was unexpected. He looked at Yagami Yuriko and said, "It seems that your Yagami family doesn't just train you as a doctor."
"Your strength is already that of an eighth-level spiritual cultivator, right? To reach such strength at this age, you truly live up to being the strongest genius of the Yagami family."
Yagami Yuriko said softly, "Since I want to test you, I must show corresponding strength. Otherwise, how can I be at ease?"
"This level is just a prelude. Don't waste time. Let's decide the winner directly, or the venue will collapse."
Wu Tian smiled and said, "No problem, but... if you are only at the eighth level, you might not be my opponent."
Yagami Yuriko did not reply. She slowly closed her eyes, and a condensed fluctuation immediately emanated from her body. A few seconds later, her eyes snapped open, and the black light on her body flared up intensely! Everyone felt their hearts stop, because they saw that behind Yagami Yuriko, a three-meter-tall figure had appeared! The figure was entirely black, with three heads and six arms, and its solid muscles were like rock! Its six hands held different weapons, looking extremely terrifying, like a demon god emerging from the night! Such a sight was truly horrifying! It could appear in any terrifying place, but it should never appear in reality!
"My heavens..." the referee exclaimed in horror, his mouth agape, "That's... a Yagami? How can something like this happen?"
Wu Tian heard the referee's words. He looked up at the figure and said, "Yagami? Could this be the ultimate technique of your Yagami family?"
Yagami Yuriko replied, "That's right. This is the 'Yagami Code' of the Yagami family, and it is the top-tier spiritual skill I have mastered."
"Yagami is the god our family worships. If you can withstand the attack of the Yagami, then you win."
"Is that so?" Wu Tian's lips curved slightly, revealing a battle-hungry smile. "As expected of a top-tier spiritual skill, its aura is indeed extraordinary."
"By my estimation, an attack like yours, let alone killing an eighth-level spiritual cultivator, even a ninth-level early-stage spiritual cultivator, without a top-tier spiritual skill, would probably not be your match."
Yagami Yuriko remained silent, while Wu Tian continued, "To be honest, among the people I've fought, you are the second most powerful."
"If it were in the past, I really wouldn't be your opponent."
"But now... it's hard to say."
As his voice fell, Wu Tian took a deep breath. Instantly, within the golden light that had enveloped him, lightning began to flicker. This lightning was different from usual; it even faintly contained the sound of dragon roars. Wu Tian's expression became serious. This was the first time he had used the power of the Sacred Dragon! He was also very curious about how this power would manifest.
