At the same time, Bai Yetian also arrived at the back mountain. Looking at the scene before him, his heart was even more touched. He could now be sure that both Lu Fan and Lin Jiutian were superior to him in strength.
This meant that in tomorrow's battle, he would not need to participate, nor could he be Lin Jiutian's opponent.
The top expert of the East Courtyard would ultimately become a laughingstock, and his heart was filled with unwillingness.
He had been in the East Courtyard for a long time, trying to forcefully break through to the Saint realm. Even some fellow disciples in the West Courtyard feared him, but he never expected to be surpassed by someone now.
"Saint realm, I'm still one step away!"
Bai Yetian smiled wryly. Although he was very unwilling to admit it, the facts were laid out before him, and he had no choice but to admit it.
At the same moment, Lu Fan and Lin Jiutian collided, engaging in a direct physical combat. Each blow carried the essence of the Heavenly Dao, which was also a mark of a Saint. Only by reaching the Saint realm could one wield the power of the Heavenly Dao. The fact that they could unleash it was enough to show their immense strength.
Meanwhile, the East Courtyard was already filled with people, all of whom were exclaiming in shock as they watched the scene. Many young girls were captivated by such a fierce battle, something they had never witnessed before.
After hundreds of rounds, Lu Fan and Lin Jiutian were evenly matched. Many disciples from the West Courtyard also came to watch, and their perception of the East Courtyard was completely overturned.
In the past, the East Courtyard was like a weakling in their eyes, easily defeated. But now, it seemed that even the strongest in the West Courtyard might not be able to suppress them.
"I truly didn't expect there to be such strong individuals in the East Courtyard. It won't be long before they enter the West Courtyard and even stand on equal footing with the strongest in the West Courtyard!"
Many disciples from the West Courtyard spoke, their hearts filled with immense shock. After all, the West Courtyard had Saint disciples, so they had always looked down on the East Courtyard. But after this event, perhaps no one would dare to think that way anymore.
"It seems our strengths are comparable!"
Lu Fan said, "Why don't we stop here? Let it be a draw!"
"In my mind, there has never been such a thing as a draw!"
Lin Jiutian sneered, "So you should understand that today, it's either you die or I die!"
"Is this your Dao heart?"
Lu Fan suddenly smiled, "If that's the case, you might not be able to reach a very high realm in the future! To become the ultimate powerhouse, one must have an unbreakable Dao heart, which you lack!"
"I don't need you to lecture me!"
Lin Jiutian said coldly, "Since I challenged you, I naturally have the confidence to win. If I fail, my cultivation will be difficult in the future!"
"Since that's the case, then I admit defeat!"
Lu Fan shrugged slightly. He did not wish to fight again. Their strengths were comparable, and if they continued to fight, it would only result in both sides being injured. At that time, neither side would benefit.
"I don't need others to pity me; I only need you to fight me!"
Lin Jiutian's voice was indifferent, "Even if I die here today, it is my fate!"
Lu Fan felt a moment of helplessness. He did not want to fight, but unfortunately, Lin Jiutian was persistent and would not back down.
"Since that's the case, then don't blame me for being ruthless!" Su Dan Xiao Shuo Wang
Lu Fan soared into the air, his surrounding flame power reaching its peak. He had not wanted to use his full strength, so he had been holding back. With Lin Jiutian's relentless pressure, he could only fight back forcefully.
"I knew you had a trump card!"
Lin Jiutian immediately sneered, "It's just that you haven't reached the Saint realm yet. Even if you use your true means, you won't be my opponent!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful force surged from Lin Jiutian's body and pressed down towards Lu Fan. As a peerless prodigy, he had already reached the Saint realm, and his aura was exceptionally terrifying.
"This is, Domain power!"
The crowd was stunned and incredulous. This was the first time they had witnessed Domain power, and it was the Saint's Domain.
"Saint's Domain, I truly didn't expect that in our East Courtyard, there is such a peerless figure!"
Thirteenth Elder laughed heartily. Under normal circumstances, reaching the Saint realm offered a chance to awaken the Saint's Domain, but very few true Saints could awaken it. Only peerless prodigies who appeared once in a hundred years could control the Saint's Domain.
More importantly, the Saint's Domain was extraordinary. Once one could control the Saint's Domain, they would be more powerful than ordinary Saints. This would allow them to gradually dominate the path to the peak in the future.
"I admit you are very strong!"
Lu Fan said coldly, "However, your Saint's Domain can only restrict my speed, but it cannot restrict my thunderous flames!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the flame power controlled by Lu Fan became even more potent. The combination of thunderous flames, Green Lotus Sacred Fire, and White Lotus Sacred Fire unleashed a power that made the entire Tongtian Academy feel scorching hot.
Many elders quickly took action, attempting to isolate the flame power to prevent it from harming other students within the academy.
At the same time, the students present were also greatly astonished. They never expected that under the suppression of the Saint's Domain, Lu Fan's surrounding power could still be so terrifying.
Rumble...
The two massive energy spheres collided, and the two figures were violently blasted away. The entire back mountain was filled with flame power and the aura of the Saint's Domain.
Everyone looked towards the back mountain, only to find two figures lying on the ground, seemingly unconscious, as if neither had gained an advantage.
The war between Saints was also extremely terrifying. If this were not the Tongtian Academy, protected by powerful formations, this place would have long since turned into ruins, without a doubt.
"Who won? Who won in the end?"
In the East Courtyard, many people spoke, filled with anticipation. However, they found that both figures were lying on the ground, with no clear winner.
"A draw?"
Many disciples looked bewildered and somewhat unsatisfied. They rarely saw such a battle, especially one so terrifying.
It was a pity that Lu Fan and Lin Jiutian were equally matched and no victor was decided. Thus, the title of East Courtyard's number one remained undecided.
Liuli and Shen Yehong rushed forward to help Lu Fan up, but Lu Fan was unconscious, clearly having sustained some injuries from the earlier impact.
At the same time, Lin Jiutian was also helped up, still unconscious. The epic battle in the East Courtyard today had not yielded a victor, which left people somewhat speechless.
"So strong, such a powerful aura!"
Bai Yetian smiled wryly, "I'm afraid I have no chance of winning against either of them."
"Senior brother, you shouldn't be so self-deprecating!" Bi Qing said with a light smile, "After all, you are also close to the Saint realm!"
