Chapter 256: It's Like A Fight Between Heaven And Earth.
With a bright flash of light, Lei Liwei disappeared and reappeared next to Asher, who gave her a side-long glance.
"So, what do you think of my Spirit, Asher?" She asked with a confident grin on her face.
But Asher didn't answer her right away. Instead, he stayed quiet for a long time, staring into her eyes, which made her curious as she cocked her head in confusion.
"What's wrong? Are you entranced by my beauty so much that you can't utter a single word?" She teased him once more.
However, Asher just shook his head and replied, "Not quite. I was just thinking, whose Spirit is stronger between you and Long Lingyu?"
That caught Lei Liwei by surprise as she raised her eyebrows in amusement, "Oho~ Is that even a question? Of course...."
But, before she could finish her sentence, a deafening roar erupted from behind them, interrupting her words and startling everyone present.
A tremendous pressure bore down on every participant as if a heavy mountain was pressing on their backs, forcing them to bend forward as they struggled to remain standing.
While everyone was still reeling from the shock, a giant creature flew overhead, circling above them and casting its large shadow upon the ground below.
Looking in the direction of its origin, they saw a giant dragon hovering in midair with its head pointed upward while emitting a domineering aura that spread outwards as far as the eye could see, filling the entire area with its overwhelming presence.
Its majestic form was adorned with reddish-brown scales, and its eyes were burning with the intensity of a raging flame of the earth's core. On top of its head were a pair of curved horns that pointed backward, giving it a more ferocious appearance.
As if a mountain had flown above everyone, everyone could feel the gravity pushing against them, forcing them down. The force exerted upon everyone caused many to collapse on the ground, unable to withstand its pressure.
Those who managed to remain standing could only tremble as they stared up in awe and terror.
"That's a Terrax, an Earth Dragon..." An elder whispered, his eyes widening in surprise and admiration.
Earth Dragons were the symbol of strength, representing the unyielding earth element. Their might is unrivaled and can command mountains to shake, volcanoes to erupt, and even earthquakes to occur.
ROOOOAAAARRRR.....
The roar resounded throughout the field once again as it continued flying in circles above everyone before flying in the air above Long Lingyu, who had her hand placed on the obelisk, concentrating on channeling her spirit essence.
When everyone saw that it was her Spirit and six glowing stars were reflected in the artifact, the crowd gasped in astonishment.
"Woahhhh..."
"Another Supreme Rank Spirit. Oh my god!"
"And an Earth Dragon, no less! This is crazy!"
"No wonder she can afford to act arrogant; her talent is really heaven-defying."
"Right?! She's the real deal! A true dragon among humans! Her arrogance is indeed justified!"
As everyone gushed about her Spirit and the dragon flying around her, Long Lingyu ignored them as she retracted her Spirit back into her body, finishing up her part.
"Fufufu... And there we have it, everyone—three Supreme Ranked Spirits in one batch. It seems like the next generation of our sect is going to be strong. You all have to work hard to catch up, okay?" Elder Katrina declared with a smile as she addressed the younger generation.
"Hey, Liwei, I think you were saying something about whose spirit was stronger between you and Long Lingyu?" Asher turned toward Lei Liwei with a smirk on his lips.
"Urgh..."
She gave an embarrassed cough as she replied back without hesitation, "Of course it's not that easy to tell. After all, it's like a fight between heaven and earth. There is no definite winner."
"Oh, is that so? Let's just leave it at that for now, haha." Asher laughed out loud at her statement, knowing what she wanted to say.
"Stop laughing!" She shot daggers at Asher as her cheeks flushed crimson red in embarrassment.

While the crowd cheered in excitement, Elder Kong Yu looked like he had swallowed a fly.
His jaw tightened, and his expression turned ugly after seeing another young woman with Supreme Rank Spirit. 'Why do all the Supreme Ranked Spirits holders want to join the Twilight Mist Sect? Damn it! We can't lose here. I need to increase the number of elites in Heaven's Glory Palace or else...'
"Hahaha... This is quite unexpected. To think we would have three Supreme Ranked Spirit holders in the same trial." Elder Harrius laughed out loud, breaking the awkward silence that ensued.
"Hehe... Indeed, Elder Harrius. However, there are still many participants waiting for their turns, so who knows, maybe there will be even more surprises," Matriarch Cai Xinyi added with a chuckle.
When Elder Harrius heard her words, he couldn't help but raise his brows in curiosity and ask, "Matriarch Cai, you mean....?" But before he could finish his words, he turned his head in the direction of Cai Yan in surprise and then back at Matriarch Cai Xinyi in realization.
The latter just nodded in response with a faint smile gracing her lips, which made the former gulp in anticipation.
At that moment, Elder Harrius found himself looking forward to witnessing the result of Cai Yan's test more than ever, hoping that she too would possess a powerful spirit.
It didn't take long for many more participants to complete their tests, but there weren't any more higher-ranking spirit holders.
Soon, Cai Yan finally took the stage, attracting everyone's attention due to her mesmerizing appearance. Her presence alone was enough to enthrall everyone's hearts, making it impossible for anyone to look away.
She possessed a beauty that defied description, causing countless hearts to skip a beat whenever their gazes landed upon her ethereal figure.
A smile formed on her lips when her gaze met with Asher's for a second before she focused her attention on the Spirit Star Obelisk, sending out a surge of spirit essence in the artifact.
