236: Chapter 235 Slapped in the Face 236: Chapter 235 Slapped in the Face The Spiritual Girl, although not as instantly lethal as Zi Ye, resolved her opponent within two or three moves.
As everyone was still in shock, the referee’s voice rang out once more.
“Next match, Lin Xuan versus Bi Jingshan.”
Excitent flared in the crowd again, especially among the disciples from Xia Country, who looked expectantly at Lin Xuan.
Xia Country had only two participants in the finals, with Ouyang Changming’s strength clearly second tier.
Thus, Lin Xuan once again beca the center of everyone’s attention.
Bi Jingshan was a sowhat plump young man, holding a semicircular scimitar.
“Ha ha, let see just how sharp your Sword Intent really is!” Bi Jingshan spoke with a hint of arrogance.
As everyone puzzled over his words, a blinding light burst forth.
A pale yellow armor appeared on Bi Jingshan, shielding his vital areas.
“Xuan-grade treasure!” The crowd gasped.
“No wonder he’s so arrogant, he has a Xuan-grade treasure!”
“Hmph, let’s see what Lin Xuan does now!
I don’t believe he can break through a Xuan-grade treasure!” scoffed a disciple from Ying Country.
Bi Jingshan, proud in his heart, had received the armor from an elder last night, specifically to fend off the terrifying attacks of Sword Intent.
If he could block the Sword Intent, wouldn’t Lin Xuan be at his rcy?
After all, he was a Second Grade Rune Master, not to ntion a Seventh Layer Martial Artist.
He was sowhat confident in himself.
“Lin Xuan is in danger!”
“Please, let nothing happen to him!” The disciples from Xia Country looked on with worry.
“Xuan-grade treasure armor?” Lin Xuan was astounded.
“Ha ha!” Seeing this scene, Bi Jingshan laughed triumphantly.
“Lin Xuan, without the threat of Sword Intent, you’re nothing!”
“What an idiot!” Lin Xuan said coolly.
“What, you dare insult ?
You’re looking for death!”
Enraged, Bi Jingshan stomped, and his half-moon scimitar glead coldly as he swiftly swung it.
“You don’t even need a sword to deal with you.”
Lin Xuan took a horse stance and crouched slightly, inhaled deeply, and then threw a punch.
As if thunder had suddenly appeared, Thunder Light glittered everywhere, forming a twenty-ter-long Thunder Dragon.
On its body were golden scales, vivid and lifelike.
Roar!
With a roar, the Thunder Dragon pounced towards Bi Jingshan, leaving a scorched trail.
Boom-boom-boom—
In the blink of an eye, Bi Jingshan was sent flying backward, screaming.
Thud.
The sowhat plump young man fell backwards on the ground, his body scorched, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
“You, you…”
Bi Jingshan struggled to rise but spat out blood as soon as he opened his mouth.
The crowd slightly shook their heads; it was clear he had internal injuries.
Especially the disciples from Ying Country—they looked as embarrassed as if a bucket of cold water had been dumped over their heads.
“Hmph, even without Sword Intent, Senior Brother Lin isn’t soone just anyone can contend with!”
“That’s right.
Even with a turtle shell, if you can’t withstand the force, it’s useless!”
The disciples from Xia Country were greatly pleased and began to mock.
Indeed, after Lin Xuan had mastered the Copper Thunder Pattern, his re punch was not sothing that ordinary Sixth Level Practitioners could withstand.
Moreover, he had channeled his full Spiritual Power, cloaked in golden lightning.
Such power, not even an ordinary Seventh Realm Martial Artist could resist.
The competition continued, with nine strong competitors taking turns on the stage.
Shadowless’s injuries had mostly healed, likely due to taking so precious Elixir Pills and treatnt from a Soul Fusion Realm Expert.
His opponent was Yan Bing from Rain Country, also a girl.
Swoosh!
Shadowless took the stage and imdiately unleashed his Absolute Skill, disappearing.
Yan Bing could only defend cautiously, encircling her surroundings with tiny water droplets, forming several thin water curtains.
“Death Dance!”
A huge black scythe suddenly appeared, carrying a fearso aura, slashing towards Yan Bing.
Crack crack crack!
The water curtains in front of her shattered like mirrors, a dark blade striking Yan Bing.
The imnse force sent Yan Bing flying on the spot, landing to one side.
“The winner, Shadowless!” The referee said expressionlessly.
The crowd around grew uproarious.
To raise a hand against such a beautiful girl, he truly was a madman!
The disciples from Rain Country all had a cold look, staring fiercely at Shadowless.
Lin Xuan’s eyes flickered as he sighed.
However, Shadowless’s movent technique was formidable; ordinary people simply couldn’t catch him.
Had it not been for Lin Xuan’s understanding of the Wind Emperor’s Sword and learning the lt Wind Style, it would have been hard for him to defeat Shadowless in a short ti.
The finals proceeded quickly, with most matches being decided within a few moves.
Soon, the first round was complete, and the second round continued.
Right off the bat, Ouyang Changming faced Zi Ye, and many people sighed for Ouyang Changming inwardly.
This guy was really unlucky to keep running into top-notch experts.
“I concede.”
Ouyang Changming’s voice carried a hint of helplessness; he dared not fight Zi Ye.
If he were to suffer a Soul Attack, he probably wouldn’t be able to continue in the contest.
Next was the battle between Yu Fei and Shadowless.
The crowd grew interested—they all wanted to see who else aside from Lin Xuan could counter Shadowless’s movent technique.
“Little girl, just concede graciously!”
Shadowless laughed coldly, disappearing from sight.
Swoosh!
A huge scythe suddenly appeared to the left of the Spiritual Girl, its black blade swiftly arcing through the air.
Whoosh!
A blue ribbon spun in the air, creating a force that pulled the blade off course.
“Sea Heart Palm!”
With a swing of her hand, roaring waves surged forward.
Swoosh!
Shadowless quickly disappeared again, blending into the wind.
Humph!
The Spiritual Girl snorted coldly, turning her body gently.
The blue ribbon in her hand emitted a faint light, and from her as the center, waves surged out in all directions.
Like thousands of horses galloping, the speed reached the pinnacle.
Across the entire arena, everywhere was marked by the waves, giving Shadowless no place to hide; his body was shaken out.
“Infinite Sea!”
The Spiritual Girl’s palm emanated a blue light, forming a beam that struck Shadowless and sent him flying.
“Yu Fei wins!” the judge loudly declared.
The crowd’s gaze towards the Spiritual Girl once again beca one of awe.
Although she lacked Lin Xuan’s sharp Sword Intent, the Spiritual Girl’s strength was beyond doubt.
So far, besides Lin Xuan, she was the only one who had defeated Shadowless.
Next, Zi Ye and Lin Xuan successively took the stage, both defeating their opponents with a single move.
Soon, the second round passed.
Half a day later, the fifth round passed.
During that ti, these competitors had their wins and loses, but only three maintained a perfect record.
Those were Lin Xuan, Zi Ye, and Yu Fei.
These three had battled all the way here, decisively without defeats.
The sixth round comnced, and the matches progressed swiftly.
Lin Xuan faced Shadowless.
The judge’s voice rang out, montarily stunning the crowd, who then turned their gaze toward the two on the stage.
“Is Sword Intent going to appear again?” disciples from Xia Country eagerly anticipated.
In the first five rounds, Lin Xuan hadn’t used his Sword Intent, which left them sowhat disappointed.
Now, they would get to see Sword Intent once more.
“Hmph!” Shadowless looked at Lin Xuan, his gaze filled with rage.
It was this young man before him that had inflicted serious injuries on him causing him to be unable to perform at his best in today’s finals.
With this thought, a surge of hatred welled up in him.
“Sword Intent, huh?” Shadowless sneered.
Learning from yesterday’s lesson, he, like the corpulent youth, donned Xuan-grade armor.
Against such a defense, Sword Intent could no longer cut through.
Without the enhancent of Sword Intent, Lin Xuan was soone he no longer feared.
Swoosh!
With a sway of his body, Shadowless disappeared from sight.
