No one expected Xia Houqing to exhibit an extrely calm expression. With just one punch, he struck Li Fei and sent him flying out of the arena.
"I know that you would use Liu Ruyan to provoke . I must admit that last year, your thod indeed resulted in my failure. But now, I’m no longer the sa as before," Xia Houqing said calmly, his gaze sweeping indifferently past Liu Ruyan standing beside Huangfu, though his heart carried a hint of desolation.
Sorry, Ruyan, my junior sister, I can’t persist anymore. I have decided to sever my emotions.
The exquisitely beautiful Liu Ruyan saw Xia Houqing’s gaze and involuntarily trembled, her heart overwheld by an indescribable feeling, as if sothing important was distancing itself from her.
At this mont, Lin Feng was already among the top five, easily completing his task.
He was considered to have completed the task.
However, Lin Feng planned to challenge Huangfu to see just how powerful Huangfu truly was.
And the next opponent was none other than Huangfu, Huangfu against Lin Feng.
No one favored Lin Feng in this match, because the disparity in strength was too great, Huangfu was considered a myth among the disciples, with almost no one expecting Lin Feng to win, as Huangfu was indeed terrifying.
Lin Feng continued to stand on the platform with a leisurely deanor, as if no matter what he experienced, this sense of tranquility would never be lost.
The Longevity Technique was indeed a tiless marvel in this aspect, bringing Lin Feng’s personality to its fullest potential.
"You’re quite impressive, almost showing the sa montum as Su Chen back then. It’s just a pity that I think your ranking will stop within the top five," Huangfu said indifferently, while exuding a powerful aura.
"Top five, that’s not bad; I’m quite satisfied. It’s already my honor to have the opportunity to spar with Senior Brother Huangfu," Lin Feng replied leisurely, completely unaffected by Huangfu’s aura.
This place has its own moral, unaffected by anyone.
Huangfu noticed that Lin Feng’s expression remained unchanged and was slightly puzzled, seemingly not expecting Lin Feng to be like this—sowhat intriguing.
"Start your attack," Huangfu said calmly.
Lin Feng tightly gripped the Youxing Sword, imrsing his mind, as if the sword was an extension of his own vision, more profound and unfathomable compared to his previous sword path realm.
At this mont, the Thunder Blade suddenly appeared in Lin Feng’s hands, and Lin Feng directly wielded his strongest current attack, Thunder Annihilation, unleashing endless lightning combined with the heavenly thunder contained within the Thunder Blade, as a gigantic thunder dragon erged from the blade, swiftly rushing towards Huangfu.
"Earth Rank Martial Technique." The crowd exclaid in surprise, not expecting Lin Feng to imdiately use an Earth Rank Martial Technique, opening with a powerful attack.
"Your sword technique is decent," Huangfu said calmly, directly drawing his sword and slicing at the doomsday thunder dragon, almost without using any martial technique, effortlessly killing the thunder dragon.
This is the power of a Four Spirits Seal expert, and at this mont, a sword river seed to appear from the sky—a brilliant star river almost sealing off all of Huangfu’s subsequent moves, advancing with irrepressible determination, seemingly intent on terminating all things under the heavens with an attack on Huangfu.
This is the true killer move. The brilliant star river, comprehended from the Sword Manual’s Sword River, contains the Star Intent, the Ti Path, and the intention of annihilation.
Although not an Earth Rank Martial Technique, it displayed greater power than an Earth Rank Martial Technique, astonishing the crowd. This move perfectly suited Lin Feng himself, developed by softening the style Lin Feng created, similar to the Heart-Seeking Blade, ford by seeking within oneself. Though it currently cannot match the deep complexity of Earth Rank Martial Techniques, as Lin Feng grows, its power will gradually increase, determining its rank based on Lin Feng’s progression.
If Lin Feng could cultivate the Six Spirit Knot, then this move’s power would be considered outstanding even among Earth Rank Martial Techniques.
If Lin Feng reached the Nine Spirit Joints, then this move would beco a Heavenly Rank Sword Technique.
Huangfu’s face showed a hint of solemnity, but that was all, as the gap in cultivation between them was simply too vast.
Even if a Six Spirit Knot faced Huangfu, the result would be similar, requiring no martial technique, just a simple sword strike or palm attack to defeat the opponent effortlessly. It’s incredibly easy.
Huangfu was like this—another sword strike directly shattered Lin Feng’s hope.
Lin Feng sighed, realizing the disparity in their cultivation was indeed trendous, and considering Huangfu could rival Four Spirits Seal at Third Spirit Realm, at Four Spirits Seal, he could undoubtedly contend against Five Spirit Knot, aning Lin Feng faced soone with three spirit knots above him. This was practically an unbeatable character.
Especially since the opponent wielded a Divine Weapon, leaving Lin Feng without a single gap to exploit, forcing him to sigh and choose to concede defeat.
Currently, he’s still in the accumulation stage, and to truly unleash power requires reaching the Four Spirits Seal.
"Senior Brother Huangfu, I concede," Lin Feng directly said, conceding.
Seeing Lin Feng admit defeat, Huangfu laughed indulgently, saying, "Junior Brother Lin, you were a worthy adversary."
Lin Feng sheathed his sword without a trace of unhappiness on his face. Indeed, the gap in cultivation between them was simply too much, which is why no one favored Lin Feng.
Up next, the match was between Yu Chen and Lin Wushuang. The two engaged in a fierce battle, with Yu Chen’s sword incredibly fast, almost resembling streaks of lightning, while Lin Wushuang’s Cold Ice True Qi was incredibly domineering. The two were evenly matched, but Yu Chen ultimately won with a slight advantage over Lin Wushuang.
However, Yu Hen was exhausted and could only settle for third place, while the next and final match was between Xia Houqing and Huangfu, as Huangfu had a bye in the first match.
Watching Huangfu, Xia Houqing couldn’t deny that this match attracted a lot of spectators because of the natural attraction of gossip surrounding Xia Houqing and Huangfu, yet Xia Houqing wasn’t as excited as he was when directly confronting Huangfu. Instead, his expression was extraordinarily solemn.
"If you concede now, I’ll grant you a dignified defeat," Huangfu said lightly, not particularly valuing Xia Houqing.
Xia Houqing sneered, saying, "You want to concede? It’s impossible. I know I’m not your match, but I’d rather die standing than live kneeling."
"Very well, let’s see how you stand while dying," Huangfu sneered, directly attacking with a palm, leaving Xia Houqing no place to dodge. He was struck instantly and sent flying outside the arena.
"I told you I’d offer a respectable thod, yet you didn’t listen," Huangfu sneered before stepping down from the platform. Due to Yu Chen’s inability to continue competing, Lin Feng naturally placed second because Xia Houqing was also unable to continue, postponing the third match between Yu Chen and Xia Houqing for later.
Therefore, Lin Feng received quite a hefty reward, and he exchanged the Throat Lock prize for a dicinal herb close to Fourth Grade, intending to awaken Hua Shengmi.
Elder Lin was in seclusion, reportedly comprehending the Ancient Spirit Technique with the three Supre Elders, having no ti for Lin Feng. Therefore, no one ntioned the matter of accepting disciples.
As Elder Li had taught Lin Feng the Star Sword Technique, naturally garnering people’s approval.
This was Elder Li’s disciple, leaving no one contemplating anything else, and Lin Feng’s dicinal herb was delivered almost the next day. Lin Feng imdiately injected the entire herb into Hua Shengmi’s spirit seed, intending to observe Hua Shengmi’s awakening.
This ti, Hua Shengmi fully awoke, though the prelude lasted quite long, until Lin Feng nearly lost patience at a mont when a familiar voice echoed.
"I’m back."
