Chapter 1160: Chapter 1160: Iron-backed Mad Dragon
Wang Yushan originated from the military of Sky Dragon Planet, not from a family clan but a military leader specializing in quelling rebellions. She had led the fleet of Sky Dragon Planet multiple times into combat on other planets within the Dragon Horse Star System, sweeping away those who defied their rule. Despite being a female of the Dragon Clan, she truly was a Killing God. Given that females in high positions within the Dragon Clan are extremely rare, she remains unmarried to this day, which speaks volumes about her character.
Her sole purpose in attending the Ascending Dragon Tournament was to become a Dragon Knight, a lifelong goal of hers.
A Dragon Knight once evaluated her, stating that what she lacked in talent, she made up in sheer madness, relying on her intense battle spirit and nearly insane perseverance. It was said that as long as she was alive, there would be a place for her in the world of Dragon Knights. This high praise clearly indicates how esteemed she was.
In the preliminary competitions, her performance was quite impressive. Without encountering Lan Xuanyu, Bai Xiuxiu, or Hu Hongyu, she only lost to Xu Yanmo once. Her record was on par with Bai Xiuxiu and Hu Hongyu.
Today, this fifth round of the competition could be compared to colliding stars, with many high-performing contestants clashing.
Watching her opponent wielding two Wheel Battle Axes, Bai Xiuxiu’s right hand mimicked a grabbing motion, and as the Divine Dragon Armor adhered to her, the Dragonlance had already leapt into her palm.
Despite earning impressive results similar to Lan Xuanyu during the round-robin games, she wasn’t taken very seriously.
If there was any regard for her, it was due to her stunning beauty and her status as a female of the Dragon Clan.
In the previous four rounds, she actually fought earnestly only once, and had admitted defeat in another. In the other two matches, she won without a fight. A record of three wins and one loss certainly drew attention. However, she was also dubbed the Goddess of Luck.
The title of Goddess of Luck can be seen as both a compliment and a slight. During this match, she clearly faced a true opponent. Today, Lan Xuanyu severely injured Hu Hongyu, essentially clearing a path for her. However, deep within her heart, Bai Xiuxiu never wanted to rely on others. She hoped to become Lan Xuanyu’s best partner, providing him with the greatest support. That was what she believed she should do as his woman.
Lan Xuanyu had taken on too much responsibility, and unbeknownst to him, he had grown into a towering tree. However, at the top of that tree, how much was he truly supporting?
Bai Xiuxiu had asked him more than once what they could do for him, instead of him always just giving selflessly.

When they were accepted into the Shrek Academy inner court, Lan Xuanyu initially wanted to let go of the burden of the Thirty-Three Skywing. However, unexpectedly, they were all granted special admission directly into the inner court.
Subsequently, he shouldered that burden again, ready to face everything anew. Wasn’t Bai Xiuxiu distressed? Of course, she was. Her diligent cultivation was for one reason—to be able to help share his burdens when needed.
At this moment, facing a formidable enemy, only one thought dominated her mind: no matter the cost, she must win this match. She had to conquer the opponent before her.
She understood Lan Xuanyu too well, in the previous match, he could have won without getting injured. Yet, he chose to inflict severe damage on his opponent, essentially eliminating him from the competition, all for her sake!
For her, he had gotten injured. At this moment, this was the only thought in Bai Xiuxiu’s mind.
Wang Yushan was watching her as well. As a war fanatic, Wang Yushan had participated in so many battles that she herself had lost count. But she was very aware of the aura of slaughter emanating from her body, which was strong enough to discourage even other high-ranking members of the Dragon Clan, including the male dragons. Yet, at this moment, she saw no trace of fear in the beautiful and seemingly frail opponent before her.
To be honest, when she first met Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu, she was jealous. Did she want to be so fierce? She had also grown up from childhood. Who would want to become a Killing God if they could live a beautiful life?
But her talent was such, and the dragon species she belonged to wasn’t pleasant to look at; when she transformed into human form, she took on the rugged appearance she now had. What could she do?
She still remembered the first time she went mad, which was after a male dragon ridiculed her for looking manly. She had beaten him furiously until she broke his leg.
Thus, when she first saw Lan Xuanyu and Bai Xiuxiu, jealousy naturally arose in her heart—jealousy of their beauty, of their figures.
However, as the competition proceeded, her jealousy began to diminish. On the contrary, her admiration for Lan Xuanyu grew. Lan Xuanyu’s fierce fighting style was exactly what she adored. She fought in the same way and was already eager for a direct confrontation with Lan Xuanyu.
Subsequently, she ignored Bai Xiuxiu, with almost all her attention focused on Lan Xuanyu. The previous match had made Wang Yushan’s blood boil, especially when both parties collided and were equally injured. Seeing Lan Xuanyu stand up from the ground, Wang Yushan couldn’t help but cheer. It was a cheer from the perspective of womanhood.
Among the Dragon Clan, while females were popular, they were always at a disadvantage. There weren’t many particularly powerful female dragons.
Lan Xuanyu, who could represent the female dragons and defeat the powerful male dragons, was undoubtedly the pride of the female Dragon Clan in her heart.
And now, as she entered the battlefield with a fighting spirit, she was surprised to find that this beautiful, high-ranking female dragon, known as the Goddess of Luck, also seemed, maybe, perhaps, not so simple!
“The match begins!”
The referee’s announcement pulled Bai Xiuxiu and Wang Yushan back to their senses.
Amidst a skyward howl, Wang Yushan burst forth like an arrow, not flying, but striding forward. Among the high-ranking dragons, she was one of the ones who preferred to fight in human form. She liked the feeling of cleaving an opponent’s body with a battle axe, which was much more satisfying than the Dragon Clan’s inherent clawing and biting. Therefore, she aspired to be a Dragon Knight, not a Mount Dragon.
With each step she took, her speed surged dramatically, each movement on the ground causing a thunderous roar. Her majestic aura continued to rise crazily, charging step by step towards Bai Xiuxiu, with battle axes held open on both sides of her body. The iron-black scales emerging on her skin merged with her Black Dragon God Armor.
Bai Xiuxiu likewise had no intention of taking off. Facing her opponent’s fierce attack, she took slow, measured steps. Compared to the opponent’s speed, she looked as if she were leisurely strolling in a garden. Beneath the deep blue Divine Dragon Armor, the crystal-clear dragon scales released a cold aura that immediately pervaded the air.
Sheets of deep blue snowflakes began to ripple outward from her body, making her figure even more stunningly beautiful.
At least in the eyes of all the spectators, the two sides in this fight were the very incarnation of good and evil. Such is the benefit of appearances.
When Wang Yushan was fifteen meters away from Bai Xiuxiu, her attack finally launched. With a swing of her right hand, the Wheel Battle Axe already spun out of her grasp, flying rapidly toward Bai Xiuxiu. With Wang Yushan’s strength and that terrifyingly large battle axe, if the strike hit its mark, even the Divine Dragon Armor might not withstand it.
