Ye Tian's sword moved with blinding speed. When combined with his swift footwork, this eighty-percent-power attack landed with the impact of a full-strength strike. He left a trail of afterimages as he lunged at Sima Tianquan.
The power of both their Martial Skills was imnse. As they were unleashed, the very air around the dueling ring trembled violently, and their Sword Qi shot out in all directions, creating several ferocious gales.
Everyone below the ring watched the battle with wide eyes. Many of them kept glancing at the burning incense stick. A good number of them didn't want to see Ye Tian slain by Sima Tianquan; after all, this duel was not the least bit fair.
Ye Feifei, Chu Hongyuan, and the others had their hearts in their throats. Although Ye Tian had assured them he would be fine, who could possibly predict what would happen next?
'Murong Rufeng had those terrifying Bursting Fire Talismans and the Rainstorm Blossom Needle. Sima Tianquan is also from a prominent family, so might he not possess other, equally powerful Hidden Weapons?'
Qin Xiaowan's face remained an icy mask, her eyes fixed unblinkingly on the fight between Ye Tian and Sima Tianquan. She appeared calm on the surface, but inwardly, she was incredibly anxious. Even though she hated Ye Tian, she didn't want him to die by anyone else's hand. 'If anyone in this world is allowed to kill Ye Tian, it has to be .'
BANG! Their Sword Qi collided. At the sa ti, their longswords t with a clang of tal on tal, striking sparks into the air.
Both combatants managed to avoid any vital spots. In fact, their Attack Power seed to have completely canceled each other out, leaving both unhard. However, the resulting shockwave sent them staggering back several dozen steps.
Ye Tian and Sima Tianquan had fought to a draw. The crowd below erupted into fervent applause and screams, everyone clapping for Ye Tian. For a Basic Level student to fight a Middle Level student to a standstill was an incredible feat.
At the sa ti, many people began to chant Ye Tian's na, cheering him on. This caused Sima Tianquan to lose a great deal of face. That glory should have been his, but now Ye Tian had stolen it.
He had thought his attack would grievously injure Ye Tian, earning him the admiration of the entire crowd. He never expected Ye Tian to steal his thunder. The hatred in his heart for Ye Tian deepened.
Of course, many were also shocked that Ye Tian had managed to block Sima Tianquan's attack. It seed entirely possible now that he could hold out until the incense stick burned down.
Ye Tian stood quietly in place, watching his opponent. The wind gusted intermittently, sweeping the long hair from his forehead. His handso figure was on full display, causing the eyes of many female students to sparkle with adoration.
anwhile, a certain young woman from the Basic Level class also had her gaze fixed on him from start to finish. She didn't seem the least bit worried about Ye Tian's safety. In her heart, she was certain that Ye Tian could defeat his opponent.
"Ye Tian, you got lucky this ti, brat! You actually managed to block my attack. You won't be so fortunate next ti!" Sima Tianquan roared, trying to save face.
"I was born lucky," Ye Tian said calmly. "If you have so real skill, then show it. No one wants to listen to you run your mouth. If that was the strongest you've got, then you're going to have a hard ti killing ."
"You're too arrogant! Today, I'll let you witness my Vortex Slash!" Sima Tianquan roared in anger.
He imdiately raised his longsword into the air. Ye Tian could clearly sense the powerful Energy fluctuations emanating from the blade.
Although Sima Tianquan's Power Realm was only at the Second Vein Fifth Layer, he could unleash the Attack Power of a cultivator at the Second Vein Sixth Layer, or even the Seventh Layer. This was the source of his confidence.
Of course, there was another person below the ring who was also suprely confident in Sima Tianquan—his older brother, Sima Tianhai. His strength had already reached the Three Veins Sixth Layer Realm, making him one of the academy's top experts.
'When Ye Tian heard the na of Sima Tianquan's Martial Skill, he found it quite domineering. 'Vortex Seven Slashes'... that must an it has seven forms, with the final one being the most powerful.'
'I can't hold back on this next attack; I'll have to use my full strength. Of course, if I were to use the War Dragon Heavenly Arm, I'm confident I could finish him in a single move. But I can't reveal all my trump cards just yet.'
Sima Tianquan slowly brought his longsword down in a slash. Then, his figure flashed as he delivered another, and another, until he had unleashed seven consecutive slashes. In an instant, the seven sword strikes rged into a single, colossal wave of Sword Qi that surged toward Ye Tian.
Ye Tian had clearly seen that as Sima Tianquan executed this move, it was as if ti itself had stopped for a mont. He seed to be using so kind of Shifting Form and Shadow Body Technique. It was bizarre, but its power was imnse.
The surrounding air vibrated violently, and the dueling ring began to shake, as if this one attack might destroy it completely. Sima Tianquan lunged at Ye Tian with the force of a thunderclap.
The crowd below held its breath, their eyes glued to this imnsely powerful strike. They wondered if Ye Tian could withstand it, or if he would be cut down.
When Sima Tianquan unleashed this attack, worry appeared on the faces of both Xiao Yaoyao and Lin Ling. Ye Tian was, after all, the most talented student in the advanced class. To see him die such a tragic death before their eyes would be unbearable.
Ye Feifei, Chu Hongyuan, and the others were so nervous that sweat beaded on their foreheads. Even Qin Xiaowan had a few drops on her brow, revealing the extent of her inner turmoil.
Only Zhang Xinlan showed no such reaction. On the contrary, she believed that Ye Tian's next move would be the one to grievously injure Sima Tianquan. As for why she had such a thought, she herself wasn't sure. She just had faith in Ye Tian—a feeling of absolute trust.
Ye Tian didn't dare to be careless. He rapidly circulated the Dragon Spiritual Power within his body. The very instant Sima Tianquan began to move, Ye Tian unleashed his own most powerful attack—the Fifth Form of the Flowing Cloud Sword Technique.
He used his full strength for this strike, the first ti he had done so since his recent breakthrough in his Realm. Its power was similarly imnse. A terrifying Sword Qi erupted from the tip of his blade, and aided by the speed of his Dragon Form Hundred Transformations Body Technique, he appeared before Sima Tianquan in the blink of an eye.
This was the true clash of titans. BANG! Once again, the massive sound of colliding Energy reverberated.
Sima Tianquan's Sword Qi attack ca in successive waves, each one stronger than the last. Ye Tian's Sword Qi was domineering, instantly shattering his opponent's first few waves. However, it only managed to partially disintegrate the final wave before the remnant of Ye Tian's attack struck Sima Tianquan.
anwhile, Ye Tian also realized the terrifying power of that final wave of Sword Qi. If it struck him directly, he would likely be grievously injured. He absolutely would not let that happen. With a sharp twist of his body, he shifted more than a ter to the left, dodging the attack on his vital points. Then, the remnant Sword Qi and the force of the shockwave struck his body at the sa ti…
