Chapter 219: Battle for the Number One (5)
When Laura saw the young lady move and heard the sound of something breaking, her expression turned solemn.
"It seems your student is in for it. Her releasing this proclaims her victory," Laura sighed. Even though she said this, her eyebrows were creased.
Laura preferred the young lady losing rather than unleashing this mysterious power. There would be a lot of problems after this.
KACHA!
Draco heard the sound of something unlocking from the young lady's body. He could feel a mysterious energy surging out from her—it felt somewhat familiar.
A large influx of Originat gathered around the young lady. Her body began to emit nine-colored light, blinding everyone. The crowd was shocked and confused by what was happening.
Each representative of the academies could feel a mysterious and domineering energy, similar to the weapons that Blum, Oscar, and George had used.
But this energy had a primal aura—one capable of standing on par with ancient beings. A sacred presence that could not be violated.
MEY-OW!
A loud chirp, like that of a peacock, shocked everyone. They looked at the young lady, now covered in a nine-colored glazed light, her aura growing stronger with each passing moment.
Suddenly, a massive nine-colored peacock appeared behind her, its aura radiating from the primordial ages—an existence with the essence of creation itself.
When Draco saw this, he felt his Phoenix Bloodline stir and grow restless. It wasn't just his Phoenix Bloodline reacting; his other bloodlines did as well, though not as strongly.
The crowd witnessed this phenomenon, their expressions filled with shock and awe.
"I never thought your student would have such a mysterious and unknown bloodline," Ken chuckled, looking at Laura with a smile.
Tera, watching closely, was surprised. His gaze shifted to Draco, wondering how he would handle this situation.
Bloodlines were ancestral lineages passed down through generations or formed through supernatural power, often linked to mythical beings.
Bloodlines were an inner source of strength, unlike weapons, which were external sources of power.
Tera wondered if Draco's Bloodline was as strong as the young lady's, because he could sense from its aura just how powerful it was.
Draco suppressed the restlessness of his bloodlines, but he couldn't suppress that of his Phoenix Bloodline.
CHIRP!!!
A long cry of the Phoenix resounded through the arena. Everyone was shocked—the aura carried the essence of the primordial ages, as if it had existed since the creation of the world.
This time, the crowd heard it clearly. They looked at Draco and saw the image of a three-colored Phoenix manifesting behind him.
Its feathers burned with red, blue, and black flames, forming the three colors. However, the blue and red were more dominant than the black.
Draco looked at the nine-colored peacock, recalling that he had seen it before in the memory fragment—when the Dark Phoenix had battled against others.
Then, shifting his gaze to his own Phoenix manifestation, he couldn't shake the feeling that something was missing.
"Yes, Master's thought is correct." Lilith's voice rang out. "The Three Phoenix Bloodline isn't complete because you haven't found the Dark Phoenix Bloodline and fused it with yourself."
"The Three Phoenix Bloodline has the power to control Nirvana: life, fire, ice (Two-Colored Phoenix), and death, darkness, destruction (Dark Phoenix)."
Draco furrowed his brows. "Then where did I gain the Two-Colored Phoenix Bloodline from?" he asked in confusion.
"From Ivy. Don't forget your Perfect Copy skill," Lilith explained. "Her Two-Colored Bloodline was assimilated into your Three-Colored Phoenix Bloodline, filling the gap. Now, the only thing remaining is the Dark Phoenix Bloodline."
As Draco listened, he understood her explanation. But then another question came to mind, one that left him puzzled.
"Then why didn't I acquire Rose's Bloodline?"
Lilith sighed. "You need to dual cultivate with her at least five times to replicate her bloodline. Her bloodline is like a Dao, on par with your Three-Colored Phoenix. Such a bloodline can't be copied all at once. The same applies to Ivy's bloodline, but because your own bloodline is higher than theirs, you were able to replicate hers instantly."

Draco nodded. He now fully understood what Lilith had explained.
CHIRP!
MEY-OW!
Both images of the Volkoid chirped as they began battling against one another. It was a battle of the birds.
They clashed fiercely, each seeking to destroy the other, yet neither was able to gain the upper hand.
With a chirp, they flew back to their respective owners. The phoenix had an unwilling expression—it had no access to its full strength, or it would have beaten the peacock to death.
The peacock, on the other hand, had a proud expression, standing on equal footing with the phoenix.
They soared into the sky, then swooped down, fusing back with their owners.
Draco and the young lady underwent drastic changes. Draco's three-colored wings grew larger, radiating an even stronger aura. His hair deepened in color, resembling phoenix feathers when viewed closely.
His eyebrows turned into flames, and a virtual phoenix helmet covered his head.
The young lady's transformation was even more surprising. Her hair turned into a nine-colored glazed hue, her eyes shimmered with the same colors, and her entire being radiated a mysterious aura—an aura of creation itself.
She looked like a divine goddess descending into the mortal world.
The crowd watched their transformations in shock. These two possessed the Volkoid bloodline or power, yet it was evident that this was no ordinary bloodline like a Heaven-Grade Bloodline.
This seemed to be a God-Grade Bloodline. Not much was known about Godhood in this world.
Draco felt his strength amplified by the Phoenix Bloodline. The young lady also experienced a significant increase in power, filling her with confidence to battle Draco.
Both opponents moved.
SWOOSH!
BOOM!!!
BOOM!
BOOM!
Every clash caused explosions, leaving pits all over the arena. They continued to battle, their figures flashing rapidly as they exchanged blows.
Most of the participants were shocked by their sheer power, looking at both of them as dark horses.
Such strength was overwhelming, approaching Level 80 to 90 in terms of aura and power.
In just a few minutes, they had clashed hundreds of times.
"Descent of the Heavenly Phoenix!"
Everyone was stunned that Draco was using the signature skill of the Phoenix Academy—and with such ease.
The ones most shocked were those from the Phoenix Academy. Even the young lady fighting Draco was surprised, though not to the same extent as the others.
Multiple three-colored phoenixes were formed, but their spirituality was far superior to the ones the young lady had summoned.
The phoenixes chirped as they dived toward the young lady, launching their attacks.
The young lady snorted when she saw this.
"Feathered Fury!"
Her peacock tail spread wide, displaying its mesmerizing beauty. Everyone felt entranced by the sight.
Suddenly, her feathers began to detach, transforming into razor-sharp projectiles that formed a whirlpool of attacks aimed at the descending phoenixes.
Her sharp, talon-like feathers pierced through the phoenixes, erasing them from existence.
The phoenixes, however, continued forward, destroying the incoming feathers as they advanced toward her.
The battle was only just beginning...
