Chapter 572: Training Body Skills
The servant who was in charge of registering bets looked at the space rings of Gu Li and others in his hands, and couldn't help but have a bold guess in his mind.
Could these people really be the young people who spent a lot of money at the Colosseum a few days ago?
The boldness of this bet is exactly the same as those of the previous people.
Thinking of this, after registering them, he quickly left to report.
The quarter of an hour of betting time passed quickly in the noise, and the audience's emotions became increasingly heated.
Everyone can't wait to see how this unprecedented high-stakes competition will develop.
A quarter of an hour passed in a flash, and the competition officially began.
Cao Yun stared at Gu Li in front of him with his eyes fixed, his heart full of vigilance.
As he was not sure of her true level of cultivation, Cao Yun planned to keep his troops in place for the time being.
Wait for her to take the first move while he focuses on defense and tests her strength.
Gu Li saw through his thoughts.
She didn't intend to waste any more time with Cao Yun, so she released her spiritual power immediately.
In an instant, the spiritual energy around his body surged like a raging tide.
The air around her was vibrating slightly due to this powerful spiritual power, revealing her cultivation level of the middle stage of the Spiritual Sea Realm.
Seeing her cultivation level, Cao Yun's eyes lit up.
He was secretly proud of himself. Sure enough, this woman's cultivation was not higher than his. She must have used some magic weapon to hide her strength before.
He himself is also in the middle stage of Linghai Realm and has been in this realm for a long time, with profound accumulation.
He has full confidence in opponents of the same level and firmly believes that he will not lose.
Gu Li didn't give Cao Yun too much time to think. She kicked the ground with her legs and jumped in front of Cao Yun in an instant like a black lightning.
Then, he threw a punch mercilessly, straight at Cao Yun's face.
Cao Yun also reacted extremely quickly. He quickly stretched out his hand and firmly grabbed Gu Li's fist.
At the same time, the other hand instantly condensed a sharp spiritual power and hit Gu Li's crown without hesitation.
If this attack landed, Gu Li would definitely be seriously injured.
"Spiritual shield."
At the critical moment, a faint halo suddenly appeared on Gu Li's body, protecting her entire body.
The spiritual power released by Cao Yun hit the shield, causing a dazzling burst of light. The huge impact force caused the shield to tremble slightly.
Just when the spiritual shield was about to break, Gu Li seized the opportunity, raised his foot suddenly, and kicked Cao Yun away fiercely.
Cao Yun was kicked and flew backwards. He somersaulted several times in the air before he managed to keep his balance.
After Cao Yun stabilized his body, he quickly formed a seal and chanted, "Thunder Rain Technique!"
As he moved, the spiritual energy around Gu Li changed instantly and turned into drops of purple water.
Seeing this, Gu Li quickly retreated a distance.
However, these purple water droplets seemed to have tracking ability and followed her closely.
Although Gu Li dodged very quickly, a drop of water still touched her hand.
In an instant, a burn mark appeared on the back of her hand, and a wave of intense pain came over her like a tide.
Seeing this scene, Cao Yun couldn't help but sneer: "Let me see how arrogant you can be."
At this time, Gu Li was completely surrounded by purple water droplets.
Gu Li used his body skills to quickly shuttle through the circle of purple water droplets, constantly dodging the attacks of the water droplets.
However, as time went on, despite her exquisite body movements, she still found it difficult to completely avoid all the water droplets, and she was hit by several large and small water droplets.
Each time she was hit, a burn mark was left on her body and the pain became more intense.
Seeing that Gu Li was at a disadvantage, Cao Yun snorted coldly and increased the output of his spiritual power.
In order to maintain the power of "Thunderstorm Art", when his spiritual power was consumed too much, he would take out a Soul-Restoring Pill and swallow it without hesitation.
Although the elixir was very precious, he won the competition and got the 500 million crystals. He could buy any elixir he wanted, so he didn't care about a mere Soul-Restoring Pill at all.
The friends in the audience saw that Gu Li was temporarily at a disadvantage, but they were not anxious at all.
Su Yiyun said calmly: "Ah Li is practicing his body skills again."
"Are you practicing your body movements?" It didn't take long for Cao Yun to realize something was wrong.
Originally, the spiritual power he emitted could occasionally hurt Gu Li, but gradually, his attacks could not even touch the corner of her clothes.
Gu Li moved around in his attack range with ease, as if he was using his attack as a sparring partner.
Seeing this, Gu Li raised the corner of his mouth and revealed a faint smile: "Not too stupid."
She had just broken through the second level and was worried about not having a suitable opponent to help her consolidate her strength in the new realm, and Cao Yun just happened to come to her door.
After hearing this, Cao Yun was so angry that his lungs were about to explode.
It was so frustrating that I was used as a target by this woman.
But he also knew that such continuous output of spiritual power would not only fail to cause fatal harm to Gu Li, but would instead consume a large amount of his own spiritual power, which would not be worth the loss.
In desperation, he could only take back his spiritual power.
Gu Li flexed his wrists, feeling the surging spiritual power in his body, and said with satisfaction: "It's almost done, time to change."
Before Cao Yun had time to figure out what she meant, he saw Gu Li rushing towards him like a flash of black lightning.
He was startled and quickly tried to block it.
At the moment the two fists collided, powerful spiritual power spread out in all directions like surging waves, splashing spiritual power and shining brightly.
Cao Yun only felt a force like an overwhelming force coming from Gu Li's fist.
He couldn't resist at all and was knocked flying, falling heavily to the ground.
"Cough, cough, cough." Cao Yun struggled to get up from the ground, coughing violently and uncontrollably, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
Gu Li looked at him, with a hint of teasing in his tone: "Be careful!"
Cao Yun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and for the first time he felt like retreating.
This woman was so powerful that he felt he was no match for her.
But when he thought about the huge debt of 500 million crystal stones he would have to bear if he lost the competition, he had no choice but to continue fighting.
"Red Wind Tiger." Cao Yun gritted his teeth and chanted the spell loudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a majestic contracted beast appeared out of nowhere in the competition venue.
This red wind tiger is huge in size, surrounded by red flames, and exudes powerful oppression.
Gu Li stopped and looked calmly at his contracted beast: a ninth-level divine beast.
Even though he had a contracted beast, Cao Yun didn't dare to say that he would definitely win.
What if she has it too?
Seeing the ninth-rank divine beast, there was no intention of retreating in Gu Li's eyes, but instead he was full of fighting spirit.
She didn't intend to ask the contracted beast for help.
She can still fight against the ninth-level divine beast.
