But they did not expect that Zhou Tong would be suppressed after going up the stage. What was even more ridiculous was that the person who suppressed Zhou Tong's cultivation was almost an entire small realm lower than his!
This was really unimaginable. At this moment, Lu Xuan was finally taken seriously by them. But, it was only to be taken seriously. It would be a joke to say that he was a threat. Who were they? They were the core disciples of the Sky Blade Sect. This time, they came to challenge the core disciples of the Wind Sword School. Lu Xuan was only an inner sect disciple.
And Yu Hao, who was standing at the edge of the stage, had a look of shock in his eyes. Lu Xuan's strength was really beyond his expectations!
Zhou Tong had actually been able to suppress Yu Hao even when he had gone all out. To Yu Hao, this was simply inconceivable. Yu Hao felt a burning sensation on his face when he recalled how he had underestimated Lu Xuan.
But in his heart, he was also secretly glad that he did not rashly go up and fight Lu Xuan. Otherwise, he would probably not be able to hold on anymore. After all, he was only at the Initial Ninth Layer of Body Refinement. Compared to Zhou Tong, who was at the Advanced Ninth Layer of Body Refinement, there was still a big gap.
But then, his heart slightly sank. He suddenly thought of the bet that Lu Xuan proposed before the battle. If Zhou Tong was defeated, didn't that mean that not only would he not be able to obtain the treasured weapon that Lu Xuan took out, but he would also lose the treasured weapon that he had just obtained not long ago?
Thinking of this, Yu Hao suddenly hesitated. His eyes were erratic. Although Lu Xuan could suppress Zhou Tong, if he joined in, they might still be able to obtain victory. Since it was Lu Xuan who proposed to fight one against two, it was not against the rules for him to join the battle now.
At this time, Yu Hao could not care about whether Zhou Tong would mind him joining in the battle. Even if it was an unfair victory, it was better than losing.
In reality, this was Yu Hao thinking too much. Zhou Tong, who was currently fighting against Lu Xuan, was extremely eager for Yu Hao to join the battle. Lu Xuan's attacks were still increasing in strength, and it was likely that he would not be able to hold on after a few more moves. If he were to be defeated with his tail between his legs, how would he have any face left?
However, he was the one who asked Yu Hao to watch the battle. How could he put down his pride and ask Yu Hao to fight against Lu Xuan with him now?
Just as the two of them were lost in their thoughts, Lu Xuan suddenly said, "One isn't enough, let's do it together!"
Before he could finish his sentence, Lu Xuan's figure suddenly flashed, and he quickly appeared in front of Yu Hao, directly attacking him with his sword!
Seeing that Zhou Tong was almost at his limit, Lu Xuan actually took the initiative to encircle Yu Hao into the battlefield as well. The one versus two battle officially began!
Seeing this scene, the disciples of Wind Sword School immediately became even more excited. Lu Xuan had successfully suppressed Zhou Tong, and had completely displayed his powerful strength. This also gave everyone great confidence. One versus two, it was not impossible to win!
"Good job, Senior Lu!"
"Senior Lu, cripple them!"
…
One by one, the disciples waved the fists in their hands and shouted excitedly, as if the one who was displaying his prowess was not Lu Xuan, but themselves.
"Senior Lu, you're too cool, I love you!!" A rather beautiful female disciple could not help but shout loudly.
As a cultivator, she was not as bashful as the women in the secular world. Moreover, it was human nature to admire the strong, so this female disciple shouted boldly.
Following her shout, she immediately attracted many gazes, three of which were extremely sharp. Without a doubt, they were naturally Lin Xinyi, Chen Xiaohan, and Zhang Dongshuang.
However, after noticing everyone's attention, this female disciple did not restrain herself at all. Instead, she shouted even more vigorously, as if she could not wait to rush in front of Lu Xuan and make Lu Xuan aware of her existence.
"This Lu Xuan, why is he so ostentatious? He must be purposely showing off to attract the attention of young ladies, hmph." Chen Xiaohan lightly snorted.
Lin Xinyi could not help but laugh, "It's not as bad as you think. He is now fighting for Wind Sword School's reputation. If he can defeat one or two people from Sky Blade School by himself, Elder Jin and the others will also be able to hold their heads high."
After a pause, Lin Xinyi said mockingly, "Moreover, weren't you attracted by his purposely showing off?"
Chen Xiaohan was speechless for a moment. She pouted and did not speak. Lin Xinyi's words were not wrong. Back in the Enchantment Hall, it was because of Lu Xuan's talent in Talisman Dao that attracted her attention. She did not expect that she would accidentally fall into his trap.
Below the arena, while the crowd was agitated, Yu Hao, who was suddenly attacked by Lu Xuan, had a shocked expression. He was just hesitating whether or not to join forces with Zhou Tong to deal with Lu Xuan. He did not expect that Lu Xuan would come looking for him.
Fortunately, his strength was not weak. In a panic, he swung his blade and barely blocked Lu Xuan's attack.
Lu Xuan's sword was only to pull Yu Hao into the battle. He did not use much strength, so naturally, it did not cause too much trouble for Yu Hao.
However, Lu Xuan's words and actions infuriated Zhou Tong, who was fighting against him.
Lu Xuan mercilessly said that one person was not enough. It was obvious that his strength was not enough for Lu Xuan to use his full strength. For Zhou Tong, who had always regarded himself as a genius, this was undoubtedly extremely difficult to accept.
Although from the battle just now, his strength was indeed not as good as Lu Xuan's, knowing it was one thing, saying it was another.
"If I don't teach you a lesson, do you really think I'm easy to bully?" Zhou Tong shouted angrily. He also used a movement technique and quickly chased after Lu Xuan. The long blade in his hand waved and fiercely slashed towards Lu Xuan's back. If he was hit, even if Lu Xuan did not die, he would lose half his life.
However, how could Lu Xuan be so easily hit? When he attacked Yu Hao, he did not ignore Zhou Tong's existence. He did not dare to be careless in the slightest when he was at the peak of the 9th Body Refinement Stage.
Sensing the strong wind coming from behind, Lu Xuan quickly turned around. Circulating his Yuan Power, he instantly transferred it to the Star Shattering Sword in his hand and swept it out. Lightning Light Sword Technique, sixth form!
In the time it took for a spark to fly off a flint, Lu Xuan's sword fiercely collided with Zhou Tong's attack. This move was a head-on clash. Under normal circumstances, Zhou Tong, who was at the peak of the 9th Body Refinement Stage, would undoubtedly win against Lu Xuan. However, by relying on the powerful Taiyi Return to Origin Technique, the density of Lu Xuan's Yuan Power was not something that a normal 9th Body Refinement Stage could compare with.
Moreover, ever since Lu Xuan had obtained that drop of Azure Dragon blood essence from the Zhang Family's inheritance grounds, Lu Xuan could clearly feel that his strength had increased tremendously. Not only had his entire body been tempered to perfection, his attacks had also become more ferocious. The strength brought about by this kind of bloodline power was something that a normal martial artist would not be able to experience.
Previously, when Lu Xuan had used the Lightning Light Sword Technique's fifth form, Zhou Tong had already displayed his full strength. Now that the two attacks collided, Lu Xuan did not move a single inch, while Zhou Tong had to continuously retreat three steps before dispelling the attack. With just this one attack, the difference in strength was immediately determined!
Seeing this scene, the inner sect disciples of the Wind Sword School below the stage immediately cheered even louder.
Yu Hao, who had been pulled into the battlefield by Lu Xuan, also slowly walked forward at this moment, walking to Zhou Tong's side. The two of them stood shoulder to shoulder, staring at Lu Xuan who was in front of them.
"I've already said that one person is not enough. This set of sword technique has not even been used and you're already at your limit. It's better if the two of you come together and see if you can let me finish using this set of sword technique." Looking straight at Zhou Tong and Yu Hao, Lu Xuan's tone could not help but carry a trace of heroism. The battle just now had already completely stirred up his fighting spirit. His entire body was bursting with vigor, as if he was a god of war that had descended upon the world.
Lu Xuan's words undoubtedly made Zhou Tong even more furious. He had never been looked down upon like this before, and his entire body was about to tremble with anger.
"Senior Zhou, don't forget our mission this time. This brat's strength is not weak, don't be careless. Let's join forces and take him down first. If we lose, we really won't have the face to see anyone when we return. Also, it will be hard to explain to Elder Gong." Yu Hao was still relatively calm, and spoke out to remind him.
Hearing this, Zhou Tong's heart slightly calmed down. He had almost been controlled by his emotions. In a battle of this level, a calm state of mind was extremely important. His heart was anxious, and he only wanted to quickly defeat Lu Xuan and redeem his face. In the end, haste makes waste.
"Fine, then we'll do as you say. Bring out all your abilities, don't hide your strength. I don't believe that this brat's strength is only at the eighth rank of the Body Refinement Realm. Do you think he can deal with both of us at the same time?" Zhou Tong's gaze was cold as he spoke.
Previously, he had arrogantly declared that he would fight Lu Xuan alone. Now that he had joined forces with Yu Hao, regardless of the outcome, he would lose a great deal of face. His heart was filled with deep hatred towards Lu Xuan.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Tong's aura suddenly changed. A violent Saber Intent immediately emitted from Zhou Tong's body. He had actually comprehended Saber Intent!
Moreover, at this moment, the Saber Intent emitted from his body was extremely condensed. It was much stronger than Zhang Qing's. His Saber Intent was not merely at the entry level, but a genuine Initial Stage Saber Intent!
Although it could not compare to Mo Qiuchen's level of Spear Intent, it was about the same level as Lin Tian's Sword Intent, and this was already extremely rare.
Zhou Tong had just unleashed his Saber Intent when Yu Hao, who was beside him, actually unleashed his Saber Intent as well!
However, his Saber Intent was not as good as Zhou Tong's. It was about the same level as Zhang Qing's. Even so, as long as he could maintain it, his Saber Intent would sooner or later reach the Initial Stage!
This time, the top three disciples of the Saber Faction had all comprehended Saber Intent. Although Zhang Qing and Yu Hao had only comprehended the entry level Saber Intent, this was enough to shock everyone. It should be known that within the Wind Sword School's Saber Faction, there was not a single person who had touched the entry level of Saber Intent. Even Xu Wenyang did not know what Saber Intent was.
Although Zhang Qing's words were a little arrogant, there was one thing that couldn't be denied. When it came to sabers, the Wind Sword School could not compare to the Sky Saber Faction.
