Calamity of Tomorrow-Chapter 231 - 230 Le Zhenzi
Faced with the raging Zheng Wentian, Zhou Bai could only shake his head helplessly. A gale swept through, and he had already retreated in an instant, as if performing instantaneous movement, reappearing hundreds of meters away with gusts of wind swirling around him.
"What’s wrong, Old Zheng?" Zhou Bai said soothingly, "We can talk this out; there’s no need to be so angry."
"Talk this out?" Zheng Wentian retorted, "You scammed me so badly! Over 7000 points! And you sold me that piece of trash as a treasure?!"
As he spoke, Zheng Wentian’s eyes turned bright red, the Red Blood Profound Evil suddenly activated, transforming into two crimson lights shooting towards Zhou Bai.
When Zhou Bai saw the red glow in Zheng Wentian’s eyes, he quickly reacted, selling off the shoes on his feet and the clothes on his body, leaving himself barefoot and shirtless.
The shrill sound of air tore through the silence, and under the blow of the gale, Zhou Bai’s figure had vanished from Zheng Wentian’s sight.
After all, this was not the same as their earlier encounter in the arena. Zhou Bai’s strength had surged like a rising tide, with his Primordial Spirit’s power having increased from just over a thousand to a solid three thousand points.
At this moment, employing the Gale Realm’s Gale Breath Walk, combined with his barefoot state, he was like lightning, markedly faster than before.
In the blink of an eye, Zheng Wentian found himself unable to capture Zhou Bai’s figure, merely feeling the assaulting gale head-on, causing his hair to whip wildly.
In the next moment, he felt a heavy pressure in his chest as an attack with the full force of 3000 points of Primordial Spirit power swept over him, pounding mercilessly onto Zheng Wentian’s Red Sun Armor.
Zheng Wentian roared and turned his head, but the Red Blood Profound Evil could only sweep through a fading afterimage.
Boom, boom, boom!
Amid the thunderous noise, Zheng Wentian realized that he was utterly defenseless against Zhou Bai, who seemed to have genuinely transformed into a tempest. Even when he strained his eyes, he couldn’t keep up with Zhou Bai’s shadow, and his Red Blood Profound Evil, no matter how swift, couldn’t make contact.
Instead, he was attacked dozens, if not hundreds, of times in a few instants, the continuous pounding resounding together—a frenzy of Zhou Bai’s 3000 point Primordial Spirit power hammering down on Zheng Wentian.
Beneath the sweeping gale, Zheng Wentian felt as if he was engulfed in the jaws of a massive beast, besieged by attacks on all sides.
"A hundred attacks per second? Or two hundred? Three hundred?"
Zheng Wentian couldn’t see clearly, nor could he count.
Two months prior, Zhou Bai’s Primordial Spirit power of just over a thousand points couldn’t breach his defenses, even if he stood still and allowed himself to be hit.
But now, with 3000 points of Primordial Spirit power, Zhou Bai unleashed a relentless, thunderous torrent of strikes against Zheng Wentian’s Red Sun Armor, gradually threatening to break through.
"Am I going to lose?"
Bang! In the next moment, the Red Sun Armor shattered, and Zheng Wentian stared blankly at the raging tempest, the red light fading away from his eyes.
But just as the gale was about to swallow Zheng Wentian whole, a surge of black and white Primordial Spirit power descended from the heavens and wrapped around his body.
Zhou Bai felt his punches and kicks hit this black and white Primordial Spirit power as if plunging into the depths of the ocean, utterly ineffective.
Inside his mind sea, Christina spoke, "This is the Tai Chi Diagram, the fifth layer of the Human Figure Path—be careful. The Primordial Spirit power cultivated from the Tai Chi Diagram can borrow and repel force. If you can’t shatter his Primordial Spirit power in one go, he’ll drag you to death."

"A cultivator at the fifth realm has intervened?" Zhou Bai’s gaze sharpened, and the very next moment, he felt the black and white Primordial Spirit force before him tremble lightly, actually reflecting all of his previous attacks back at him.
Zhou Bai was propelled back more than ten meters with a bang and as he saw that gigantic hand of black and white Primordial Spirit force reaching for him, Christina said, "I’ve got this!"
Ice Soul Divine Light! Shadow Carrying Sword Qi!
A streak of aurora flashed past, and the black and white Primordial Spirit force faltered for a moment, showing signs of being frozen and solidified, but it quickly spun around, dispelling the freezing sensation and regaining its vitality.
Meanwhile, Zhou Bai swiftly took the opportunity to retreat over a hundred meters away.
Seemingly aware that the commotion had grown too large, the black and white Primordial Spirit force withdrew, revealing Zheng Wentian and a young man beside him.
Zheng Wentian glared fiercely at Zhou Bai and said, "Le Zhenzi, why didn’t you catch him?!"
The young man known as Le Zhenzi chuckled bitterly, "Young master, it’s not good to act rashly within Dao School, and besides, this guy is very fast. Given the current distance and location, making a move would cause too much of a stir."
During their conversation, several streaks of light flew in their direction, Dao School guards having noticed the battle here and interveninhttps://chicago-manual-of-style.apaonline.org/

Le Zhenzi smiled and explained to the guards, "It’s nothing, just two people horsing around."
Zheng Wentian stood sullenly by, unable to speak. The thought of being bullied by Zhou Bai to such an extent, and now even his prized strength proving no match for Zhou Bai, filled him with such frustration that he wanted to spit blood.
The guards exchanged glances. Zheng Wentian was a big name in the school, and given that the matter involved a divine being, they saw no issue. After inquiring with Zhou Bai, who also said he was fine, the guards left.
Zheng Wentian sent a telepathic message to Le Zhenzi, "Why didn’t you kill him!"
Le Zhenzi replied helplessly, "Young master, if we act now, we would both suffer. The high-ranking members of East Dao School value Zhou Bai highly. But don’t worry, young master, he won’t be arrogant for much longer." He thought to himself, ’Such foolishness, to have borrowed thousands of credits to such a person, hmph... but that’s just what divine beings are like.’
Zhou Bai stood over a hundred meters away and addressed Le Zhenzi, "Who are you? Zheng Wentian’s new lackey?"
"Hehe, yes, you must be..."
"Right, I am the first genius of Eastern Dao School in five hundred years, the current top student, the hope of the teachers, idol of the students, leader of the special training class, and the future slayer of the Heavenly Demon, Zhou Bai."
"Good to meet you, Zhou Bai. I am..."
"I know, Zheng Wentian’s new lackey, right? What do you want with me?"
Le Zhenzi forced a smile, his face contorting in a strained grin, "My young master was a bit impulsive, thank you for not taking it further. I came over today mainly to recognize faces. Now that I’ve met you, we’ll be going."
"Don’t go!" Zhou Bai said, extending a hand, "Lackey, it would be quite rude of me not to invite you for a meal after you’ve come all the way from Central City to Eastern City, don’t you think?"
"Come on, come on! To the cafeteria, I’ll treat you to a meal."
Le Zhenzi looked at Zhou Bai, a hundred meters away, and said, "You don’t need to keep talking from so far away."
Zheng Wentian, overhearing Zhou Bai’s words, quickly advised, "Don’t go to eat with him, don’t trust that he will treat you, don’t believe a single word that comes out of this kid’s mouth!"
Le Zhenzi looked at Zheng Wentian helplessly and chuckled to himself, ’Ah, has Zheng Wentian been so frightened by Zhou Bai? What’s the big deal with sharing a meal, and since he said he’s treating, could it still cause me to pay up in credits?’
