When that palm strike was delivered, everyone’s bodies trembled.
"Heavens! It appeared! It’s that terrifying Palm Technique!"
"Dragon Palm! It’s the Dragon Palm!"
The crowd cried out wildly!
The faces of the people from the Prince’s Mansion changed dramatically. "Damn it, this kid still has a trump card like this? Curses!"
The people from the Star Pavilion were stunned. They thought Lin Xuan had been defeated, but he could still counterattack.
Chu Yue’s expression turned incredibly grim.
The Dragon Palm, again! Every ti she saw this Palm Technique, she was reminded of her previous humiliation.
The people from Wangyue Pavilion, however, were thrilled.
This is great! Lin Xuan is finally going all out! This Dragon Palm has heaven-defying power; it can surely block the Sword Intent!
The mbers of the Celestial Sword Sect also exclaid, "That palm strike is truly terrifying."
However, they still had more faith in Jian Wushuang.
Sword Intent is invincible.
On the arena stage, Jian Wushuang’s body trembled slightly. From that palm strike, he actually sensed a fatal crisis.
Is this my opponent’s strongest move? It’s powerful enough, indeed! But so what?
With a roar, he swung his hand again, and the Sword Qi enveloping his body slashed forward. The Sword Qi, infused with Sword Intent, pierced through heaven and earth as it shot toward Lin Xuan. In an instant, it collided with Lin Xuan’s palm.
A thunderous roar echoed as the entire stage shook violently. The collision between the two erupted in a brilliant light that engulfed everything.
The surrounding spectators stared, mouths agape. Even the top-tier geniuses drew in a sharp breath.
That power is truly terrifying. We couldn’t possibly withstand it. If we were the ones facing it, we would undoubtedly be defeated. Who’s going to win this?
At that mont, the stage was enveloped in a dazzling light. They couldn’t see clearly and could only wait.
Finally, the light ahead began to fade slowly. Everyone grew excited.
Is the winner about to be decided? Who will win? Who will be the champion?
A mber of the Celestial Sword Sect said confidently, "It’s definitely Jian Wushuang. His Sword Intent can sweep away anything."
On the stage, the silhouette of Jian Wushuang erged. He stood there, his Sword Qi surging around him like a young Sword God.
"It’s Jian Wushuang, and he’s not injured!"
"Looks like he won!" The crowd exclaid in surprise.
The people from the Celestial Sword Sect laughed heartily. "We told you so! Jian Wushuang is invincible!"
"So Lin Xuan was defeated? What a pity!" the crowd sighed.
The people from the Prince’s Mansion were ecstatic. "Hahaha! That Lin Xuan is finally defeated! This is great!"
The people from the Star Pavilion also began to gloat. "Hmph! So what if he knows the Dragon Palm? He was still defeated in the end, wasn’t he?"
"Exactly! He bragged so much about taking first place, but look at him now. He still lost."
"He’s completely disgraced the Heavenly Dao Academy."
"I say they should just kick him out imdiately."
These people jeered and mocked.
Chu Yue also stood up excitedly. Seeing Lin Xuan finally defeated with her own eyes lifted her spirits considerably.
How could this happen? Lin Xuan used the Dragon Palm and was still defeated?
The people from Wangyue Pavilion were filled with despair.
Soone from the Celestial Sword Sect shouted, "Referee, hurry up and announce the result!"
"Yeah, the winner has been decided! Announce it!"
They could no longer hold back and were ready to celebrate.
The others looked on with envy. This year’s championship had fallen into the hands of the Celestial Sword Sect. It seed the sect was destined to rise.
Just as they were thinking this, Jian Wushuang suddenly staggered on the stage and spat out a mouthful of blood. A crack appeared on his arm, and fresh blood began to flow.
What was happening? This sudden change left everyone dumbfounded. The entire scene fell silent. People stared at the stage, looking at each other in disbelief.
The disciples of the Celestial Sword Sect stopped celebrating. The smiles vanished from the elders’ faces, replaced by looks of pure shock.
Jian Wushuang was injured! His arm had actually cracked open!
How is this possible? What kind of joke is this? Jian Wushuang used his Sword Intent, so how could he be injured? Who did this to him? Lin Xuan? No, that’s absolutely impossible!
They shook their heads frantically.
The Celestial Sword Sect Leader remarked, "We really underestimated this Lin Xuan! I didn’t expect he could actually injure Jian Wushuang. He is glorious even in defeat."
Clan Leader Yan added, "This Lin Xuan is the strongest fighter after Jian Wushuang. He truly deserves second place."
The Mad Blade Sect Leader said, "Being able to injure Jian Wushuang must be his limit."
The crowd was stunned by this assessnt. So, Lin Xuan’s desperate strike had managed to injure Jian Wushuang, but Lin Xuan himself was still defeated.
Chu Yue let out a sigh of relief, her heart having been in her throat.
When I saw Jian Wushuang’s arm get injured, I thought Lin Xuan was going to make a coback. But it seems that’s not the case; Lin Xuan was still defeated. Thank goodness. If he had actually won and beco the champion, I would have gone insane.
The people from the Star Pavilion also sighed in relief.
It seems Lin Xuan has reached his limit. So what if he surpassed Chu Yue and shocked us? He still can’t be compared to our Senior Brother Chu Zhongtian. Senior Brother Chu was the champion of the last tournant. Lin Xuan is only second place.
Just as they were thinking, the light on the stage completely vanished, and Lin Xuan’s figure appeared. Everyone’s eyes snapped toward him.
How could this be?
The people from the Star Pavilion were stunned.
The people from the Prince’s Mansion were aghast.
The mbers of the Celestial Sword Sect were speechless.
Chu Yue’s eyes nearly popped out of her head.
Wan Tianming, Beichen, and the other top geniuses gasped.
The Celestial Sword Sect Leader, Clan Leader Yan, and the other powerful figures were utterly astonished.
The people from Wangyue Pavilion, however, were ecstatic. The Wangyue Pavilion Master laughed heartily.
"Who said Lin Xuan lost?"
"This battle isn’t over yet!"
Lin Xuan’s figure was revealed. He stood there like a young War God, resplendent and completely uninjured.
"Heavens, what’s going on? Lin Xuan isn’t injured?"
"Am I seeing things? Did he actually block the Sword Intent?"
"Is this real? Am I dreaming?"
"He not only blocked the Sword Intent, but he also injured Jian Wushuang!"
"Could it be that in their clash just now, Lin Xuan actually had the upper hand?"
Cries of astonishnt filled the air as the crowd reeled in shock. This was completely different from what they had assud. In their view, Lin Xuan had launched a desperate attack that injured Jian Wushuang, but he himself had been defeated in the process. Yet, the result was the opposite. Lin Xuan was unhard, while Jian Wushuang was the one who was injured. This ant that Lin Xuan had actually suppressed Jian Wushuang! It was Lin Xuan who had been holding the advantage all along.
At this mont, the entire arena was in an uproar!
How could it be like this?
Chu Yue was crushed.
The people from the Star Pavilion were crushed.
The people from the Prince’s Mansion were crushed.
The mbers of the Celestial Sword Sect were simply dumbfounded.
And the people from Wangyue Pavilion were beyond excited.
On the stage, Lin Xuan looked at Jian Wushuang and said, "I have now experienced your Sword Intent. It is indeed exceptionally sharp. You are the most formidable genius of the younger generation that I have ever t. However, it is still not enough to defeat ."
"Hmph!" Jian Wushuang retorted. "I have yet to draw my sword. Once I do, I am invincible below the rank of Grandmaster!"
