The final result was completely out of everyone's expectations.
From Lin Tian gaining the upper hand, to Lu Xuan's sudden eruption, to Lin Tian falling into a dead end, to Lu Xuan using his powerful strength to forcefully change his moves and resolve the crisis, although it was only for an instant, the process was full of twists and turns.
The degree of brilliance was something that words could not describe.
But no matter what the process was, the final result was very clear. Lin Tian lost, and Lu Xuan won!
As Lu Xuan slowly recovered his strength, Lin Tian finally recovered as well and walked in front of him.
"Thank you for showing mercy. I've lost, and I accept it wholeheartedly!"
At this moment, Lin Tian's gaze towards Lu Xuan had turned into one of admiration. Whether it was Lu Xuan's strength or his methods, he had completely won him over.
Lu Xuan smiled. With that bit of time as a buffer, his face was no longer as pale as before. A tinge of color had returned to his cheeks. The power of the Taiyi Convergence Technique was evident.
"You're not bad yourself. That strike just now was my strongest strike."
Hearing this, Lin Tian revealed a bitter smile and shook his head, "There's no need to comfort me. Although I knew that I would lose before the battle, I didn't expect to lose so miserably. I used all my strength, but I still couldn't see your swift sword. It's truly regretful."
Although Lin Tian still challenged Lu Xuan after losing in the battle of aura, he was already mentally prepared to lose. However, he thought that if he used all his strength, he would be able to force out Lu Xuan's true strength. He didn't expect the difference between them to be so great!
Without using a swift sword, Lu Xuan defeated him with just a heavy sword. To be honest, Lin Tian felt a trace of defeat in his heart.
He had always considered himself to be a genius, especially during this period of time, when he had reached the peak of the seventh tier of the Refinement Realm in one fell swoop, and when he had even grasped the basics of the Sword Will, he thought so even more. However, in the following battles, Lu Xuan dealt him merciless blows again and again.
First, his sword intent completely suppressed him. Then, without using sword intent, in a battle of pure strength, Lu Xuan was able to defeat him while concealing his strength.
"There's always someone better. This defeat may not be a bad thing for you. From now on, don't be as arrogant as before." Elder Lin lectured Lin Tian. Presumably, after this battle, Lin Tian's motivation to cultivate would be further stimulated. It was time to curb his arrogance. This was the ending that Elder Lin hoped for.
Lin Tian didn't refute, nodding his head obediently. There was nothing to deny in front of him. Looking at Lu Xuan, he spoke again, "From now on, I will not slack off. Although my chances of defeating you are getting slimmer and slimmer, I hope to witness your swift sword in the Grand Sect Competition."
After speaking, Lin Tian took a deep look at Lu Xuan, then turned around and left. The battle was over, there was no point in staying. He couldn't shamelessly challenge Lu Xuan again.
Seeing Lin Tian walk down, his followers hurriedly followed, wanting to comfort him. However, Lin Tian only waved his hand at them, "You don't have to follow me anymore."
The moment Lin Tian said this, the lackeys were instantly dumbfounded. They didn't know what had happened to Lin Tian to cause such a huge change in him. However, Lin Tian naturally didn't care about what they thought and left by himself.
Following Lin Tian's departure, the spectating disciples once again burst into a chaotic discussion.
"Haha, Lu Xuan won! What a complete victory! That's 1.5 times the odds! We've struck it rich! "The disciple who had bet on Lu Xuan to win was dancing with joy, unable to contain his joy.
"I didn't expect Lin Tian to lose. Even though he's one level higher than Lu Xuan, he still lost. Isn't he a little too useless?" The disciple who had bet on Lin Tian was full of complaints.
"What do you mean by useless? Didn't you see Lin Tian's attack just now? If you have the ability, why don't you go up and take a few blows? It can only be said that Lu Xuan is too strong. Just thinking about it is terrifying. He was able to defeat Lin Tian, who was at the peak of the seventh layer of the Body Refinement Realm, at the sixth layer of the Body Refinement Realm. When the time comes for the Grand Sect Competition, how strong will he be? In my opinion, Xu Wenyang's first place will probably be uncertain. "
… …
As they spoke, the spectating disciples left the arena one by one. Many of them went straight to the Armament Pavilion, already impatient to collect their bets.
As for the top ten disciples on the overall ranking, they also silently left the arena. This battle had indeed given them quite a shock. The strength that Lin Tian had displayed alone had made them feel a strong sense of danger. As for Lu Xuan, who was even more powerful, although they did not say it out loud, after putting themselves in Lin Tian's shoes and weighing the situation, they had to admit that even they would probably lose if they were in Lin Tian's shoes.
Among the top ten disciples, the only ones who didn't move were Cheng Wang and Mo Qiuchen. Their gazes were a little unfocused, as if they were still thinking about the last twists and turns of the battle.
The unfocused gaze gradually focused, and Cheng Wang suddenly asked, "Senior Brother Mo, if you were to fight with Lu Xuan right now, what do you think your chances of winning are?"
Mo Qiuchen's eyes slightly narrowed. After thinking for a moment, he slowly opened his mouth, "From the strength that Lu Xuan had displayed just now, I have an eighty percent chance of winning. But if we include his sword intent and the fast sword that he hasn't used yet, I'm afraid my chances are only fifty-fifty."
Hearing this, Cheng Wang was a little shocked. Didn't that mean that the current Lu Xuan already had the strength to challenge Mo Qiuchen? However, thinking about it, it was normal. To be able to defeat Lin Tian, who was at the peak of the seventh layer of the Body Refinement Realm, while hiding his strength, Lu Xuan did indeed have the qualifications to fight with Mo Qiuchen.
But … Lu Xuan was only at the sixth layer of the Body Refinement Realm. According to his speed of improvement, when the time comes for the Grand Sect Competition, he would definitely have a large increase. At that time, wouldn't that mean …
Thinking of this, Cheng Wang couldn't help but turn his head to look at Mo Qiuchen, not daring to mention it again.
Just as he was about to leave, Cheng Wang seemed to have thought of something and asked Mo Qiuchen again, "Senior Brother Mo, then what are your chances of winning against Xu Wenyang?"
Hearing Cheng Wang's question, Mo Qiuchen's face showed a trace of disdain, "Xu Wenyang? Right now, I have a seventy percent chance of winning. When the next Grand Sect Competition comes, he will definitely lose! "
After saying this, Mo Qiuchen didn't stay any longer. He directly turned around and left, leaving Cheng Wang with a cold and proud back with a long spear on his back.
At this moment, Cheng Wang was still pondering over Mo Qiuchen's words. Definitely losing, didn't that mean that he had a hundred percent chance of winning?
Shaking his head, he stopped thinking about it and also turned around to leave. Currently, whether it was Mo Qiuchen, Xu Wenyang, or even Lu Xuan in front of him, he was afraid that he was no longer a match for them.
"Lu Xuan, in this battle, you have given us three old fellows a big surprise. However, even though your heavy sword has been trained to perfection, I still have to remind you that the heavy sword is only a branch of the way of the sword. You must not neglect the essentials and pursue power, thus abandoning the essence of the sword." Elder Cheng sincerely advised.
Lu Xuan nodded, "This disciple understands. The reason why this disciple trains in the heavy sword is so that I can improve my fast sword further."
"En, if that's the case, then I can rest assured. Borrowing Lin Tian's hands to feed you so many moves, you must have learned a lot from this battle. Go back and reflect on it."
As soon as Elder Cheng said this, Lu Xuan immediately smiled. Obviously, his goal had been seen through by the three elders.
After saying this, the three elders also left, and the bustling square of the Sword Sect gradually returned to its usual silence.
After waiting for the three elders to leave, Xia Ye and Xing Feng stepped forward. Both of their faces were filled with excitement. The battle between Lu Xuan and Lin Tian just now was too amazing! It was too exciting, too satisfying!
Moreover, the strength that Lu Xuan had displayed had also completely shocked the two of them.
"Good lad, you're really something! Now that you've defeated Lin Tian, you're equivalent to an existence in the overall top ten. To think that I thought that you would not be able to display your strength because you were injured. I didn't expect you to fight so well! "Xia Ye chuckled.
However, his words made Lu Xuan feel a little confused. Injured? When have I been injured?
Ignoring Xia Ye's nonsense, Lu Xuan directly asked, "Why is it only the two of you? Where's Xin Yi? Didn't she come over a long time ago? "
Xia Ye was also a little puzzled by Lu Xuan's random question. He directly said, "I was just about to ask you. Didn't you send someone to call Xin Yi to Armament Pavilion to take care of you when you were injured? Why didn't she come over when you were here? "
As soon as Xia Ye said this, the expression on Lu Xuan's face instantly became serious. He realized that something was wrong and said in a low voice, "I wasn't injured, and I didn't send anyone to call Xin Yi. I came directly from the back of the mountain."
Lu Xuan's answer caused Xia Ye's heart to suddenly jump. He quickly exchanged glances with Xing Feng, and both of their expressions became serious at the same time. They were not idiots. When they heard Lu Xuan say this, a bad premonition immediately arose.
Lu Xuan's heart sank when he saw the expressions on the two men's faces. Something had happened!
He immediately reached out and grabbed Xia Ye's shoulder, saying, "Quick, tell me what happened. Tell me exactly what happened! "
Ignoring the pain from Lu Xuan's grip on her shoulder, Natsuya did not dare to be negligent. She quickly recounted the entire incident to Lu Xuan.
The final result was that Lin Xinyi had disappeared!
When he got this result, Lu Xuan instantly went crazy. He directly shouted at the two, "How did you two take care of her! A stranger was able to trick her away so easily? Why didn't you go with her?! "
Facing Lu Xuan's roar, Xia Ye and Xing Feng could only silently endure it. The two of them indeed had to bear great responsibility for this matter. If they had left with Lin Xinyi earlier, Lin Xinyi wouldn't have disappeared quietly. It could only be said that their vigilance was too low. They didn't think that there would be someone so arrogant within the sect!
