Hearing Lin Xuan’s words, everyone around was stunned.
What? This kid wanted to compete in speed with Ling Fengzi? For real?
"Is this kid out of his mind?" Zhao Feiyan sneered.
Sun Hao and the others couldn’t believe it either.
The rest of the crowd also frowned. They were well aware of Ling Fengzi’s Body Technique; it was definitely among the absolute best. As for Lin Xuan’s Body Technique, while fast, how could it possibly compare to Ling Fengzi’s? How dare he?
Truly foolish! The crowd sneered relentlessly.
But the dean’s heart skipped a beat. He knew that the Body Technique Lin Xuan cultivated was not weak; it was the Wandering Dragon Step! Although the Wandering Dragon Step wasn’t one of the Ultimate Skills from the nine Celestial Steles, its origins were also extraordinarily profound. It was said to have co from the Dragon Race, but the technique was incomplete. Moreover, the Wandering Dragon Step was notoriously difficult to practice.
If Lin Xuan is only at the entry-level, he definitely can’t compare to the Free and Unfettered Movent, unless his Wandering Dragon Step can advance another realm. But it’s only been a few months. Can he really improve that much?
The dean considered it seriously, then shook his head, feeling it was impossible.
Alas. Lin Xuan’s Wandering Dragon Step is indeed very strong, far surpassing others of the sa level; even ordinary two-star Martial Artists are no match for it. But it still can’t compare to the Free and Unfettered Movent. It seems Lin Xuan will suffer a loss in speed this ti. But maybe that’s a good thing. Lin Xuan’s rise has been too fast, and it has always felt a bit unreal to . If he suffers a setback, it might actually be good for him. It could make him more grounded.
He sighed at the thought.
On the arena, Ling Fengzi was also stunned when he heard this.
"You want to compete with in speed? Hahahaha!" He threw his head back and laughed as if he’d just heard the funniest joke in the world.
"Kid, I admit your Physique is strong, and I admit your Swordsmanship is heaven-defying. In those two aspects, you have indeed surprised , and I admire you for it," he said. "But when it cos to speed, I’m not targeting you. I’m saying everyone here is garbage. Not a single person can compare to ."
Ling Fengzi’s words were arrogant, but none of the disciples refuted him. In terms of speed, they were indeed no match for him. Even Lei Bao, who specialized in speed, remained silent. He had once challenged Ling Fengzi, refusing to accept his superiority, and the outco had been miserable for him. He had been completely suppressed in speed. So, in his eyes, Lin Xuan challenging Ling Fengzi in speed was truly foolish.
"Alright, kid, make your move. Let experience your Wind and Cloud Sword Array," Ling Fengzi said.
Lin Xuan didn’t say anything more. He would let his actions speak for themselves in the match. He swung his hands, and two streams of Sword Qi flew out, instantly condensing to form a Sword Array that enveloped the area before him.
Ling Fengzi didn’t dodge, as he wanted to feel the power of an array cast by a single person. In the next instant, he was enveloped by the Sword Array.
Seeing this, the people from Wangyue Pavilion cheered. "Hahaha, great! Ling Fengzi was careless! He might actually be defeated by the Array!"
The others looked at each other in confusion. What was going on? Why didn’t Ling Fengzi dodge? With his strength, dodging it would have been incredibly easy!
Could Ling Fengzi really lose due to carelessness? Could this kid actually beco the final winner?
Everyone’s expressions grew strange.
But they soon realized they had overthought it. Within the Array, Ling Fengzi’s figure flickered unstably.
His voice rang out, "Your Sword Array is strong, but it still can’t harm . I possess extre speed, which ans I’m innately invincible."
"Oh my god, what am I seeing? Ling Fengzi is weaving through the Array with ease!"
"Those streams of Sword Qi can’t touch him at all!"
"That’s too overpowered!"
"Is this the advantage of extre speed?"
At this mont, the crowd was dumbfounded. Even the elders were amazed. It seed there was no suspense left in this battle.
Sure enough, it wasn’t long before Ling Fengzi dashed out of the Array, completely unscathed.
"Lin Xuan, your Array is indeed powerful, but it’s useless against . You can’t harm ," he declared. "This match is over."
With that, his figure blurred and he instantly appeared behind Lin Xuan, slashing down with his sword. He was also using the Wind and Cloud Sword, and the might of this strike was also extrely formidable. Moreover, it was so fast that there was no room to dodge.
Lin Xuan was shocked. He hadn’t expected his Array to be so completely ineffective against his opponent. It was truly unbelievable. However, facing this sword strike, he also didn’t dodge. With a furious roar, he channeled his power, preparing to block it head-on.
With Lin Xuan’s current Physique, he had Dragon Power within him and had also absorbed Serpent Blood. His body was beyond the imagination of an ordinary person; he could absolutely withstand such an attack.
But the others didn’t know that. When they saw this, they were all stunned.
"Damn, what is this kid thinking? He wants to take that strike head-on? Is he crazy?"
"That’s the Wind and Cloud Sword! Even if its power doesn’t match Jian Wuhen’s, it’s not that far off!"
"There’s no way his Physique can withstand that."
"He’ll probably be split in half by that one attack."
"This kid is too arrogant!" Zhao Feiyan frowned.
Sun Hao and Wu Ming sneered. "What an idiot."
The people from Wangyue Pavilion cried out in alarm, and many shut their eyes, not daring to watch.
Feng Qingxue exclaid urgently, "Lin Xuan, don’t be reckless! Dodge, quickly!"
BOOM!
The sword struck Lin Xuan’s body with an earth-shattering roar, and the entire arena shook violently.
Feng Qingxue’s heart sank in despair. The others were also startled. Was Lin Xuan just killed in a single strike?
Even the elders’ expressions changed. The dean shot to his feet, ready to intervene and save him, but in the next mont, he froze where he stood.
On the arena, Lin Xuan had blocked the sword. He wasn’t split in two. He wasn’t even injured.
"He blocked it!" The dean was astonished. This kid’s Physique is truly extraordinary. It feels as if he’s absorbed Serpent Blood...
The other elders also gasped in shock. That had given them quite a scare. It didn’t matter if Lin Xuan lost, but if he died, it would be a huge loss for them.
The surrounding disciples were even more astounded.
"This is impossible!" Zhao Feiyan was frozen in disbelief.
Sun Hao’s and Wu Ming’s eyes were about to pop out of their sockets. This kid actually blocked the Wind and Cloud Sword Technique? That’s unbelievable. His Physique is so strong.
Zhang Yang and Zhao Jie were filled with amazent.
Feng Qingxue breathed a sigh of relief, a wave of residual fear washing over her.
This guy’s Physique is truly heaven-defying. Jian Wuhen sucked in a sharp breath. Although Ling Fengzi isn’t a sword specialist, and the power of his Wind and Cloud Sword is definitely inferior to my own, it isn’t weaker by much. After all, Ling Fengzi is a top-tier genius. While his Wind and Cloud Sword hasn’t reached the Great Success Realm, it’s already at the Small Success Realm, and not far from Great Success. The power of such a Swordsmanship technique is terrifying. And yet, Lin Xuan blocked it with his bare Physique. This is too outrageous. Could this kid have cultivated so kind of Spirit Body?
At this mont, everyone was stunned.
Ling Fengzi was also stunned. He never expected his opponent would be able to block his attack.
Lin Xuan’s body trembled, shaking off the opponent’s Sword Qi. He turned around and said, "Ling Fengzi, you’re fast, but your Swordsmanship is lacking. It’s truly pathetic."
Ling Fengzi’s face darkened. This guy dared to look down on him? How detestable!
"My Swordsmanship may not have reached the Great Success Realm, but what if I add my speed to it?"
Ling Fengzi’s figure vanished. He moved rapidly across the arena, his speed increasing until only afterimages remained. These afterimages ford a storm, and from within it, the Wind and Cloud Sword Qi erupted. He slashed toward Lin Xuan once again.
Seeing this, Jian Wuhen exclaid, "The power of this sword strike is equivalent to the Great Success Realm! This kid absolutely can’t block it!"
