Chapter 1675: Chapter 37: Yisheng Feng
The Dragon and Tiger are truly the supre Dao Techniques secretly passed down by the Forr Juyang Imperial Clan, undoubtedly possessing the power to stabilize the universe. In this battle, it also set the outco at a critical mont.
However, Jiang Wang knew very well that, in the duel of swordsmanship, he had already lost to Ning Jianke.
Indeed, his current Tao Path was not clear enough, nor complete. The Tao Path sword from Xinzi Tower was not yet his strongest swordsmanship thod. He also believed that his one sword strike with the consolidated Divine Skills of the Five Mansions under the Sword Immortal’s stance could not be withstood by Ning Jianke.
Yet, such was his performance in the battle.
He intended to end the fight with swordsmanship, but he was outmatched in the swordsmanship duel.
He believed that he had already given Ning Jianke enough respect, yet he underestimated Ning Jianke’s swordsmanship due to his overwhelming Inner Mansion-level advantage.
This served as a loud wake-up call for him.
This world does not revolve solely around him, Jiang Wang, nor is he the only one capable of improving.
People like Ning Jianke, endowed with extraordinary talent and a deep background, could easily make rapid progress under the dedicated guidance of strong ntors.
Jiang Wang sheathed his sword, extinguishing the light of the Five Mansions, and sincerely praised, “That sword strike you just displayed was simply beyond comprehension!”
Ning Jianke’s expression was calm, or perhaps, this fabricated, overly plain face was not suited for showing any expressions.
She rely pursed her lips and said, “But I still lost.”
“In swordsmanship, you won, but in life and death, I won,” Jiang Wang said frankly. “We can consider this match a draw.”
Ning Jianke’s eyes softened noticeably. After all, she had been in seclusion for so long, painstakingly studying sword moves, mostly due to the imnse pressure brought on by this opponent. Jiang Wang’s assessnt, in a way, acknowledged her efforts.
She humbly said, “In fact…”
She had intended to humbly say that she actually benefited from her teacher’s guidance, and Jiang Wang’s Tao Path sword was indeed very clear and impressive…
But just after she uttered “in fact,” she heard him say, “Next ti, it might not be the sa.”
Jiang Wang confidently looked at Ning Jianke: “If your swordsmanship doesn’t improve significantly by next ti, I will defeat you using just swordsmanship!”
“Oh, really?” Ning Jianke gritted her teeth and replied, “Then let’s wait and see!”
“Since this is considered a draw…” Jiang Wang seriously started calculating: “Using the Grade-4 Discussion Platform once costs 200 points. Later, I’ll voluntarily concede defeat, and you can transfer 100 points to when you get back. In the Taixu Illusion Realm, my na is Dugu Wudi, don’t forget.”
“There’s no need.”
“Don’t be polite with , it’s just 100 points. I’m truly impressed by your swordsmanship! Hey! Why did you leave?”
Ning Jianke had already conceded defeat and left the Discussion Platform.
Jiang Wang stood there, feeling baffled.
He believed he had been quite generous.
According to the rules of the Taixu Illusion Realm, he was the one who won and didn’t need to pay any points. He was willing to share half of the Discussion Platform usage cost, what more could he do?
Ning Jianke’s swordsmanship was excellent, and her resilience in battle was remarkable, but her temperant was hard to comnt on… perhaps it’s just a quirk of geniuses!
Returning to the blessed land space, Jiang Wang silently counted his points, calculating how many more were needed to further enhance his existing Dao Techniques. He also replied to Zuo Guangshu’s letters, setting a date to go to Chuguo.
To his surprise, he received another letter from Ning Jianke—
“What’s your current ranking in the Outer Building Environnt?”
Jiang Wang replied honestly, “Haven’t fought much, not in the top 100 yet.”
“Have you lost any matches?”
“Not yet.”
“You could allocate more ti in the Discussion Platform. I’m really looking forward to seeing you fight with full strength, especially against the current number one in the Taixu Outer Building.”
Jiang Wang beca interested, “Is that person strong?”
“Extrely terrifying.”
“Do you think that person is stronger than at my peak?” Jiang Wang asked.
Ning Jianke replied, “I can’t determine the outco between you two… but I’ve faced him, and from my own experience, the sense of oppression he brings is indeed more intense than yours.”
Jiang Wang found it even more intriguing.
He had defeated Jingguo’s Chen Suan head-on on the Star Moon Plain Battlefield. Although that sword stroke used the power of the Yuheng Star Lord, it still made the Jingguo geniuses on the battlefield bow their heads, which was a fact.
Several months had passed since that ti.
Given his speed of progress, he naturally becos stronger with each passing day.
Ning Jianke surely knew this.
The duel earlier with Ning Jianke fell far short of showcasing peak performance. Ning Jianke knew this too.
Yet she still felt that the current number one in the Taixu Outer Building might be slightly stronger than him, Jiang Wang.
Moreover, this person was definitely not Zhongxuan Zun or Dou Zhao, nor any of the renowned Outer Building geniuses on Guanhe Platform. Otherwise, Ning Jianke wouldn’t use such a mysterious tone.
“What’s the background of this person?” Jiang Wang asked curiously.
Soon, Ning Jianke’s letter flew back: “His na is Yisheng Feng. Both inside and outside the Taixu Illusion Realm, he’s called by this na. He’s an advanced disciple of the Southern Dipper Palace. A few days ago, he ca to our Sword Pavilion to ask for a duel, and I faced him… I couldn’t match him.”
Both the Southern Dipper Palace and the Sword Pavilion are among the major sects in the Southern Territory.
