Lu Ping cursed himself for being a jinx as he took out a high-grade blood talisman from his cuff pocket, "Vajra Talisman", and patted it on his body. A golden radiance with traces of red lines emitted from Lu Ping's body, as if he was wearing a set of golden armor.
Three sparkling and translucent ice blades collided with the protective golden radiance one after another, and only an ear-piercing sound could be heard as the three ice blades turned into ice shards all over the ground. Although the golden radiance on Lu Ping's body had dimmed by more than half, but it still formed a thin layer around Lu Ping's body, tenaciously protecting Lu Ping's safety.
Li Sheng originally thought that his high-grade talisman would certainly cause Lu Ping to defend with all his might, or even injure him, so that he could gain the absolute upper hand. Who would have thought that Lu Ping would also take out a high-grade talisman, counteracting his own talisman attack, making him unable to use any of the methods he had prepared for this talisman. It was as if his well-prepared punch had landed on cotton, making Li Sheng extremely depressed.
Li Sheng intended to change his offensive and continue to pressure Lu Ping, but he suddenly discovered that the magic effect of his opponent's high-grade talisman had not disappeared, and a faint layer of golden radiance was still being emitted. How is this possible?
When Lu Ping took out the talisman and patted it on his body, Li Sheng clearly saw that it was a high-grade talisman, and the magic effect of two high-grade talismans should cancel each other out, right?
When Li Sheng's offensive was interrupted by two consecutive accidents, Lu Ping did not hesitate. Now, not only was he not hesitating, but he was also somewhat angry. The blood talisman was one of his trump cards, but he was forced to reveal it in the first round, not to mention how many spirit stones a high-grade talisman cost? Three! Then what about a high-grade blood talisman? A conservative estimate would be at least five spirit stones!
This was the same as throwing spirit stones away in the water!
In Lu Ping's ten years of bitter cultivation, wasting cultivation resources was unforgivable! If it was said that Li Sheng's act of selling talismans as if they were worthless just now was to make Lu Ping unhappy, then now it was because he was angry out of humiliation!
Taking advantage of the fact that the talisman's effect was still in effect and the opponent's attack was thwarted, Lu Ping used the "art" realm he had just recently comprehended. He swung the "Blood Melting Bone Refining Sword" into a huge ball of light and smashed it towards Li Sheng.
Lu Ping's cultivation level was higher than Li Sheng's, and he had a solid foundation. It was only because of his disadvantage in Dharmic Armaments and Li Sheng's talisman tactics that Lu Ping was at a disadvantage. Now that they had the upper hand, the counterattack was stronger than the previous one.
Li Sheng now fully understood what it meant to feel aggrieved. Just a moment ago, he had the absolute upper hand and was feeling extremely satisfied. But in the blink of an eye, his offense and defense had switched, and he had become the one being suppressed.
It was fine if he was at a disadvantage, but it wasn't like he didn't have a chance. After all, he still had several high-grade talismans and an artifact that he hadn't used yet. But the problem now was that he didn't have the time to activate that artifact. He was completely suppressed by his opponent's moves.
It was indeed a complete suppression. Li Sheng couldn't understand. The "Blood Melting Bone Refining Sword" was only a basic sword technique. How could it suppress his "24 Violent Wind Swords"? Not to mention that he was very familiar with the "Blood Melting Bone Refining Sword"! How could his opponent use this basic sword technique so quickly? How could it be so powerful?
Li Sheng was a little flustered. After all, he was still a child that wasn't even fifteen years old.
If he could keep his composure and observe Lu Ping's swordsmanship carefully, he would discover that Lu Ping's swordsmanship was very smooth and smooth, without the slightest flaw. Perhaps Lu Ping's switching between moves wasn't very standard, but the moment he switched between moves was very much in line with the situation he was in during the battle. It felt as if Lu Ping's swordsmanship was at his whim!
It could be said that this sword technique was no longer the monastery's basic sword technique, but rather Lu Ping's own sword technique.
This was the realm of "technique". Breaking away from the standard sword technique, fusing it with one's own understanding, turning it into a sword "technique"!
At this time, the spectators could see that Li Sheng was about to lose. He no longer had any leeway to retaliate. His defeat was only a matter of time.
After all, Li Sheng was a young genius. He had a bit of fame in the monastery, so there were still quite a few people watching him. In addition, there were also people from the seventh group that Lu Ping was in. Seeing Lu Ping's victory was in sight, they couldn't help cheering. Among them were first senior apprentice Yao Yong, second senior apprentice Du Feng, and fourth senior apprentice Shi Lingling.
Fourth senior apprentice Shi Lingling said with a smile, "I didn't expect that tenth junior apprentice Lu Ping had also comprehended the realm of" technique ". I didn't see it during his last match with Li Cheng."
Yao Yong said, "The last time they fought was short. The two of them only exchanged twenty to thirty moves before the victor was decided. Not to mention, Lu Ping had just comprehended the state of 'technique' at that time. Otherwise, Master Immortal Liu wouldn't have given him special treatment right after his battle with Li Cheng."
Shi Lingling nodded and said, "First senior apprentice is right. I remember that first senior apprentice and second senior apprentice both comprehended the realm of" technique "when they were in the Eighth Layer of Blood Refining Realm?"
Yao Yong said, "Indeed, but fourth junior apprentice also comprehended the realm when she was in the Seventh Layer. Moreover, she was only fifteen years old at that time."
Shi Lingling didn't deny it. Instead, she said, "Tenth junior apprentice brother's talisman should be a blood talisman. I didn't expect him to have such a talisman. How generous of him!"
Yao Yong said, "A high-grade blood talisman should be two to three times more powerful than an ordinary high-grade talisman. However, making this kind of talisman requires blood as a catalyst. True Spirit cultivators like us rarely use this kind of talisman because our cultivation is in our blood."
Shi Lingling giggled and didn't say anything else. Yao Yong said, "Let's go. This round is about to end. We still have to prepare for the second round in the afternoon." After saying that, the three of them walked towards Group 7's resting area. Du Feng didn't say a word from the beginning to the end.
It turned out that the three of them had already finished their matches.
In the middle of the arena, the leaders of the twenty teams gathered together and discussed spiritedly.
This time, Master Immortal Liu was quite satisfied. Whether it was the number of people in Group 7 who advanced to the Late Blood Refining Realm or the number of people in Group 7 who advanced to the Late Blood Refining Realm, they were the best among the twenty groups. Master Immortal Xuan Yong praised him and gave him a generous reward. With this reward, he could advance to the Late Blood Condensation Realm and be one step closer to the Core Forging Realm.
"Junior Apprentice Brother Liu's Group 7 has a great result this time!" The one who spoke was Master Immortal Fang from Group 12.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Fang is too kind. Senior Apprentice Brother Fang's group is also not bad. There are ten people in the Late Blood Refining Realm," Master Immortal Liu said slowly, but his eyes were shining brightly.
"Haha, you two don't have to be so polite. In the past competitions, every group would have to bet on a battle. It seems like there will be no exception this time. What do you all think?" It was Master Immortal Wang from Group 1.
The other Master Immortals also took the opportunity to clamor, "That's right, a battle! A battle! "
"Same old rules! Each team will contribute twenty mid-grade spirit stones, and the Master Immortals from the five best teams will split the reward. What do you think? "
"Sure, the team with the best result will get thirty percent of the spirit stones, and the team in fifth place will get exactly one percent of the spirit stones as the reward. What do you think?"
"That's great! We'll need Chancellor Xuan Yong to be the witness!"
All the master immortals talked at once, and in the blink of an eye, they had clearly explained the rules of the bet. Clearly, this was not their first time playing this game.
Master Immortal Xuan Yong smiled and said, "This old Daoist will be the witness. But don't forget the task after the competition. Each team will have to pick a few disciples in the Late Qi Refining Realm to participate in the sect's trial."
The Master Immortals' faces turned solemn, and they responded in unison.
