Chapter 231: The Battle Ends

With Tang Hao losing an arm and Tang Xiao clearly seriously injured, the two of them from the Clear Sky Clan were now in dire straits. In contrast, Yang Podi seemed completely unharmed and had yet to reveal the full extent of his strength.

Tang Xiao, looking distressed, helped support Tang Hao. Seeing Tang Hao's severed arm made him even more sorrowful. "Hao, how are you feeling now? Is there anything wrong with your body?"

Tang Hao shook his head. Judging by the current situation, this Yang Podi could easily take on the two of them simultaneously. It was unlikely today's matter would end so easily.

Yang Podi casually approached and said, "The Clear Sky Clan sure has a prestigious reputation. But if the so-called 'Clear Sky Twin Stars' only have this level of strength, you'd better just stay here at Heavenly Academy."

At this, Tang Xiao appeared furious. "What exactly do you want?"

Yang Podi spoke calmly, "This is interesting. It was a disciple of your Clear Sky Clan who infiltrated Heavenly Academy in secret, and it was also your people who provoked us first. Now that things have come to this point, there's no reason to let you leave."

In the distance, Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Xue Qinghe were all stunned. They hadn't expected Yang Podi to defeat the Clear Sky Twin Stars single-handedly. Both Tang Xiao and Tang Hao were renowned for their astonishing strength, far beyond ordinary spirit masters of the same level. Especially Tang Hao, who had evaded Spirit Hall for years despite them deploying both Qianjun and Jiangmo, two peak-level Rank 96 Titled Douluo, to capture him.

Xue Qinghe's gaze flickered as he asked, "Teacher, should we intervene? After all, the Clear Sky Clan is our ally. We can't let Tang Hao and Tang Xiao die here."

Ning Fengzhi shook his head lightly. "It's too late. With our strength, we're in no position to mediate. Among the known figures in the world, only Spirit Hall's Grand Priest Qian Daoliu surpasses Yang Podi in power."

"Uncle Jian, what level has this Yang Podi's strength reached?"

Sword Douluo's expression was also grave. "I can't be sure of Yang Podi's exact strength. My power is roughly on par with Tang Xiao's, and even if I teamed up with Uncle Bone and you, our result would likely be no different from the Twin Stars. Furthermore, I feel that Yang Podi hasn't used his full power yet. At the very least, he hasn't displayed his ninth spirit ability."

"Given Yang Podi's talent and vision, I'm sure his ninth spirit ability is no simple matter. Besides, he's already at Rank 98. It won't be long before he reaches Rank 99. At that point, he might truly be invincible in the world."

Ning Fengzhi sighed. "With talent like Yang Podi's, he may well become another Tang Chen, or even more terrifying. After all, he's only twenty-four years old. Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan ultimately missed out."

Xue Qinghe's eyes flickered as he heard this but said nothing further. Speaking more might arouse suspicion.

On the sidelines of the battlefield, Tai tan, Bai He, and Tang San were all stunned. They never imagined that in the years since the single-attribute clans had parted ways, Yang Podi's strength would grow to this extent. Heavenly Academy's power seemed to have already reached the peak of what the Clear Sky Clan once was. They couldn't help but wonder whether the old patriarch Tang Chen could still suppress this Yang Podi.

The three of them seemed ready to act, their spirit energy fluctuating. Tang San, in particular, appeared furious and grim. His hand moved slightly as if preparing to take something out. However, before they could make a move, a tremendous surge of spirit energy suppressed them. It was none other than Dugu Bo.

Dugu Bo spoke indifferently, "I advise the three of you not to act recklessly. My poison doesn't discriminate. I wouldn't mind killing the three of you minor players."

On the battlefield, as Yang Podi approached Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, Tang Hao's expression grew resolute.

With his left hand gripping the Clear Sky Hammer, the eight spirit rings on Tang Hao's body detonated in succession. The Clear Sky Hammer instantly became enormous—it was the secret technique of the Clear Sky Clan: the Great Sumeru Hammer—Ring Explosion.

Tang Hao let out a roar as the Clear Sky Hammer expanded to an incredible size, like a small mountain. The massive weapon crashed down toward Yang Podi.

Everyone around was shocked. The Ring Explosion technique of the Clear Sky Hammer was known as a divine skill, the foundation of the Clear Sky Clan's true strength. Back when Tang Hao had escaped Spirit Hall, it was by relying on the Ring Explosion technique.

Those familiar with the Clear Sky Clan's inner workings knew that Tang Hao had used the Ring Explosion to repel the Rank 98 Golden Crocodile Douluo. This technique could amplify Tang Hao's strength infinitely.

Tang Hao's injuries hadn't yet healed. If it weren't for such an extreme situation, he wouldn't dare to use the Ring Explosion, as it would worsen his injuries and might even leave him crippled. But now, with the situation so dire, he had no choice but to risk everything.

Yang Podi coldly watched the colossal Clear Sky Hammer descend. His ninth spirit ring lit up, and the Soul-Breaking Spear in his hand grew to an immense size. The spear blade glimmered with radiant light—it was Yang Podi's ninth spirit ability: "Shoot the Sun."

Yang Podi hurled the Soul-Breaking Spear, which seemed to pierce through the void itself. The spear carried various forces, including Ultimate Metal, Ultimate Strength, powerful wood and spatial attributes, and boundless killing intent. It was as if this strike could truly shoot down the sun.

The Soul-Breaking Spear collided with the mountain-sized Clear Sky Hammer, piercing it directly and seeming as though it would pierce through the heavens and earth as well.

At that moment, Tang Hao's spirit energy was severely depleted, and he fell unconscious. If things continued, this strike could kill both Tang Hao and Tang Xiao.

Suddenly, the sky changed. A massive dragon claw emerged from the void, seizing the colossal Soul-Breaking Spear. The claw and the spear clashed, triggering a massive explosion. The shockwave forced Yang Podi several meters back.

When the area finally calmed, only a large crater remained. Tang Hao, Tang Xiao, Tang San, Tai tan, and Bai He had all vanished. Yang Podi could distinctly sense a powerful force that had whisked the five of them away in an instant.

Shaking his head, Yang Podi decided not to pursue. It seemed the one who had intervened was Di Tian. His strength was likely still slightly inferior to Di Tian's. If they fought, the entire Almo Mountain range might be reduced to rubble.

Judging from the previous clash, though his ninth spirit ability had been countered, Di Tian should also be injured. It was clear the beasts were plotting something significant.

Yang Podi retrieved Tang Hao's severed arm from the snow and, after some thought, handed it to Dugu Bo without saying much.

Dugu Bo asked curiously, "Little monster, who was that just now? Their strength seemed terrifyingly strong."

Yang Podi shook his head. "It was a powerful opponent, likely slightly stronger than me. I'm not looking to provoke them for now, but I'll settle this score eventually."

Yang Wudi chimed in, "Podi, who was that enemy? Are there other Rank 99 Extreme Douluo in this world?"

Yang Podi thought for a moment before replying, "In this world, there are only three Extreme Douluo: Tang Chen, Bo Saixi, and Qian Daoliu. The one who appeared just now was a high-ranking spirit beast, the ruler of the Star Dou Forest—Di Tian, the Black Dragon."

"Recently, unless absolutely necessary, avoid going near the Star Dou Forest's core area. It's likely to be very dangerous."

The group was shocked. They hadn't expected spirit beasts to possess such power. Still, Yang Wudi remained puzzled. "Who is this Di Tian? And why would they rescue the Clear Sky Clan's people?"

Yang Podi explained, "Di Tian is an 800000-year-old Black Dragon. In terms of raw strength, he surpasses even Qian Daoliu. However, Qian Daoliu is invincible within Spirit Hall due to his ability to draw upon the Angelic God's power."

"Tang San's mother is the Blue Silver Emperor, and his girlfriend is Xiao Wu. Both are hundred-thousand-year spirit beasts. This connection is likely why Di Tian intervened. However, as beasts, they wouldn't dare openly appear among humans, as it could provoke a human siege."

Yang Wudi asked, "What should we do now? Will the Clear Sky Clan come back?"

Yang Podi replied, "Tang Hao's injuries are severe. Even though he recently consumed an Earth Origin Fruit, it'll be tough for him to recover, especially with a missing arm. At best, he might barely reach the Titled Douluo level again, but there's little hope for full recovery. As for other members of the Clear Sky Clan, if they come, kill them all. Show no mercy."

Hearing this, both his grandfather Yang Wudi and his maternal grandfather Niu Gao nodded slightly. However, there was still a hint of sorrow on their faces.

It was Dugu Bo who appeared confused. "Little monster, why are you giving me Tang Hao's arm?"

"This is a legacy spirit bone from the Clear Sky Clan. If you're too scared to want it, then forget it."

When he heard this, Dugu Bo quickly stowed the arm away and sneered, "The Clear Sky Clan is nothing more than a bunch of rodents. Maybe they've been rats for so long they're used to disgraceful behavior. I'm a Titled Douluo—how could I be afraid of them?"

Yang Podi shook his head. "The Clear Sky Clan still has several Titled Douluo. You'd best be cautious from now on. I hope this spirit bone doesn't bring disaster upon you."

Dugu Bo was momentarily speechless. "If it's so dangerous, why are you giving it to me?"

"Grandpa Dugu, if you don't want it, that's fine. I can just give it to someone else."

"We're already enemies of the Clear Sky Clan. Might as well take it—it's a top-tier spirit bone, after all."

Afterward, Yang Wudi, Yang Zhentian, Niu Gao, and others dispersed the crowd. The intense battle had drawn the attention of countless people within the academy. Everyone in the academy had also seen Yang Podi's unique spirit ring configuration, and many now held him in utmost reverence.

Of course, the injuries of Yang Wudi, Yang Zhentian, Niu Gao, and Dugu Bo had already been healed by Ye Lingling. Their battle duration had been relatively short, and Yang Podi had protected them from the most critical attacks. Thus, their injuries were minor.

Yang Podi, however, returned to his room to reflect on the battle. This fight had revealed part of his strength—his rank 98 spirit power and his overwhelming victory over the Clear Sky Twin Stars. This was bound to provoke wariness and possibly malicious intentions from others.

His spirit ring configuration was simply too extraordinary. Only divine inheritance could create such rings. He could only hope Bibi Dong wouldn't be too stirred by it.

As for why he gave the spirit bone to Dugu Bo, today's battle had marked the end of hostilities between the Breaking Clan, Defense Clan, and the Clear Sky Clan. Dugu Bo's decisive action without hesitation had earned Yang Podi's respect.

Moreover, this battle had made Dugu Bo a significant enemy of the Clear Sky Clan. It would only be fair to give him some compensation.

As for Xue Qinghe, Ning Fengzhi, and Sword Douluo observing from afar, Yang Podi didn't concern himself with them. Since they had refrained from taking action, he decided to give them some face and let the matter rest for now. Making too many enemies wasn't wise.

At the very least, from now on, no force would dare to openly oppose Heavenly Academy. Even if surrounded by enemies, they would fear this unparalleled powerhouse.
