Meteor Fall Master in the 'Starry Abyss'
Chapter 531 - 165. My weakest ability is above what you take pride in as your capital.

Chapter 531: 165. My weakest ability is above what you take pride in as your capital.

Li Aozi instantly moved in, raising his arm to block, allowing Dialan to score only the most basic limbs points, but in exchange, he gained valuable time and speed.

A feint with a straight punch made Dialan dodge, using that to take the central line, Li Aozi suddenly swung his side elbow toward her face, making her think he aimed to score on her head.

However, Li Aozi’s target was her chest.

The side elbow strike deliberately missed as Li Aozi abruptly braked to a stop, lifting a foot for a straight kick, landing squarely on Dialan’s chest.

There was no way for her to avoid this blow.

Bang!

The monstrous strength bestowed by his bloodline instantly propelled Dialan’s figure flying backward.

Score!

After landing a hit, Li Aozi did not pursue his advantage.

He stood his ground, looking at Dialan who had been kicked away, and suddenly said:

"Is this fun for you?"

"...What did you say?"

Dialan sat on the ground, seemingly indifferent.

"Still pretending?"

Li Aozi put his hand on his hip, annoyed, and said:

"You are a hybrid of the Dragon Race and the Titan, where is the power of your bloodline? Can’t you use spells inherited from your lineage? Not even releasing your deterrence, what are you thinking?"

Dialan countered calmly:

"It’s just not suitable for the current environment—"

"—If you intend to deliberately lose to me, then I can only take my leave."

Li Aozi shrugged his shoulders.

"I can’t do without you," said Dialan in a low voice, her head bowed, "but if I go all out, you will definitely get hurt, and then, if word gets out, it will harm your reputation—"

"Damn it, if you’re going to fight, fight properly!"

Li Aozi hated this kind of attitude and instantly rushed in front of Dialan, grabbing her neck and slamming a punch into her face.

Smack!

The spell film blocked the lethal attack, but Dialan still turned her head from the slap, her cheek turning red on one side of her cold, beautiful face.

"I don’t care who you are, Classmate Dialan, don’t forget this is a transaction," Li Aozi said coldly, twisting her collar and pulling her close to him.

"A deal requires trust, my goal is the credits you promised and the guarantee to enter the workshop—everything else, I couldn’t care less about, understand?"

"...But what about how the people around will view you?" Dialan pursed her lips, looking away, "I don’t care about that because I have my own mission, but you shouldn’t be implicated by that—"

"I don’t give a damn what they think; if anyone disagrees, I’ll just beat them up!"

Li Aozi said with disdain:

"With that look of yours, you call yourself a Dragon Titan? Show some backbone, and don’t disgrace these two bloodlines. I came here to find someone to have a real fight with; if you don’t want to, then pack up your skirt and get lost! Go as far away as you can, and don’t even bother coming to school."

Dialan fell silent.

Li Aozi suddenly realized something.

Although Dialan was not tall and had a graceful figure, her student card showed she was only 17 years old.

It seemed that this girl was still underage... Wasn’t it inappropriate for him to be grabbing her like this?

[That’s right, no matter how you put it, she’s just an underage girl, inexperienced and probably more sensitive...]

Li Aozi’s eye twitched.

[So by bullying her like this, in the eyes of others, wouldn’t I be...?]

As expected, after things quieted down, Li Aozi started to hear murmurs from the audience in the arena.

"That Li Aozi is about 22, right? Holding onto an underage girl like that, is he that desperate?"

"Why have they stopped fighting? Boring, I want to see bloodshed."

"Bullying a little girl, pah, what a coward."

[I knew it...]

Li Aozi tugged at the corners of his mouth. Just as he was about to set Dialan down, the girl suddenly spoke:

"Indeed, I should have done this earlier."

"Huh?" Li Aozi was bewildered.

"You’re right, Li Aozi, I just didn’t want you to get caught up in unnecessary trouble because of me. Essentially, I didn’t take you seriously because your previous performance made me think you were too weak to handle any real challenge."

Dialan lifted her head, exuding a fierce aura that sent shivers down one’s spine.

"But I was wrong."

Her pupils gradually elongated, taking the form of needle-like draconic eyes.

Li Aozi’s body was affected by a heavy repulsive force, his feet sinking into the ground as it continued to reject him.

"Leoz, you are no mere chicken or dog; you are a worthy adversary."

A golden-red pattern flickered across Dialan’s face, intertwining like scales. A scorching metallic scent assailed Li Aozi, causing his throat to feel a burning sting.

Ha...

Dialan took a deep breath, her cheeks slightly flushed. Li Aozi found his breathing halt momentarily, as he experienced a sensation eerily familiar.

[That aura, where have I felt it before?]

Pop!

Dialan stood with feet apart, the ground beneath her affected by the intense heat and shimmering with a golden luster. Her ponytail, disrupted by the energy surge, exploded into a mass of golden hair dancing like countless dazzling serpents.

Sharp dragonscale pierced through flesh, and the lady’s graceful arms had now transformed into fearsome dragon claws. With a slight flick, the free-floating metallic elements in the air immediately became energetically agitated, and Li Aozi felt as if even the slightest friction could ignite his clothing.

[Enemy Bloodline Talent deployed—[Melting Gold Purgatory]: Every 5 seconds, forces an ’Ignition’ check on all targets within the domain.]

[Ignition: Upon a failed check, the target will continuously burn, attacks from any form will ignite the target, causing 11 points of True Damage per second, and each attack will stack.]

In the midst of the blazing Purgatory, Dialan’s clothing ignited into flames, like a flame-adorned armor and long skirt worn over her body. Behind her trailed a tail as long as herself, with fire clustering around her immaculate skin, with only a few dragonscales covering the private areas.

Her eyes blazed intensely as she cast a soul-shaking gaze upon Li Aozi.

[Dialan has deployed her Bloodline Talent—Tyrant’s Gaze.]

[Conducting a Lineage check, if your Bloodline Rank is lower than the opponent’s, 20% of your Main Attribute will be stripped away.]

Chains of intricate design instantly entangled Li Aozi, brought on by the noble Dragon Blood Titan bloodline of Dialan, a special effect from the Titan side.

Should he fail the check, his body would immediately be pierced with chains, temporarily stripping away his Main Attribute and granting it to Dialan.

Indeed, it was a domineering talent.

Dragon Blood Titan, truly a supreme existence at the pinnacle of bloodlines, frighteningly powerful.

[Sequence 82: Bloodline Activation!]

[Supreme bloodline, you reign above all creatures!]

[Lineage check forcefully passed]

[Your Lineage is supreme, and any who dare to scorn your existence will pay the price.]

[You have inflicted Bloodline Suppression on ’Dialan’—target’s output rate decreased by 15%]

"Pity, you’re just a bit behind me."

Li Aozi flicked his finger lightly, and the Bloodline chains shattering in an instant, his eyes alight with a pure crimson glow. Dialan, from afar, met his gaze and immediately felt a shudder pass through her.

If her pressure was like an unapproachable iceberg, then the aura now exuding from Li Aozi was like solar flares, incinerating and devouring everything.

"Your bloodline... it’s above mine?"

Dialan seemed disoriented, her tone even contained a hint of relaxation and relief.

"Enough talk! I’m here to fight!"

Li Aozi’s fists collided, the sheer force of the friction igniting his skin.

Health Points gained through bloodline growth have now accumulated to two thousand points, a level at which even his natural recovery could keep pace.

"Let’s see what you make of my new ability."

"Spontaneous Combustion!"

"Not by Blood of Eternity!"
