After withstanding Lu Xuan's Thunderclap Sword, Zhu Ling's injuries were extremely severe. Not only was the Yuan Power in his body in a mess, but his internal organs were also showing signs of shattering.
Even when Lu Xuan was facing Liu Tao, who was at the peak of the tenth-layer Body Refinement Realm, the Thunderclap Sword had almost killed him. At that time, Lu Xuan had yet to use his sword intent.
This time, not only did Lu Xuan push the Thunderclap Sword to its limit, he also unleashed the Intermediate Sword Intent without holding back. If it wasn't for the Water Dragon Stirring Waves that helped Zhu Ling reduce part of the power and his own solid foundation, this sword would have been enough to take Zhu Ling's life!
"Don't move, rest well!" Elder Gong said in a deep voice as he continuously used his Yuan Power to nourish Zhu Ling's internal organs.
As he expelled Lu Xuan's Thunderclap Sword and the Intermediate Sword Intent from Zhu Ling's body, Zhu Ling's life was finally saved. However, with such severe injuries, it would be impossible for him to recover without resting for a hundred days.
"Someone, take Zhu Ling away to rest!" Elder Gong commanded. A few Sky Saber Sect disciples rushed over and carefully lifted Zhu Ling, bringing him back to the place where the Sky Saber Sect disciples were waiting.
After that, Elder Gong slowly stood up and looked at the four people on the arena with a gloomy expression. However, Elder Jin and the others were completely ignored by him as he stared straight at Lu Xuan.
Facing Elder Gong's gaze, Lu Xuan did not have the slightest bit of fear. He stared straight at Elder Gong without backing down.
"What a great Wind Sword School, what a great inner sect, and what a great Lu Xuan!" Elder Gong said 'good' three times in a row, but there was no kindness in his eyes. Instead, they were filled with murderous intent.
"Elder Gong, please calm down. Senior Brother Zhu's strength is amazing, so I naturally did not dare to show any mercy. However, I did not expect Senior Brother Zhu to be so weak that he was defeated. I originally thought that Senior Brother Zhu still had some tricks up his sleeves."
Lu Xuan cupped his hands and explained to Elder Gong. However, in Elder Gong's eyes, this explanation sounded like mockery.
"So useless? Hahaha, I have underestimated you. Pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. Not bad. "Elder Gong sneered.
Elder Jin took a step forward and said, "Elder Gong, why do you say that? Swords and blades have no eyes. This is a competition between disciples. It is inevitable that there will be accidental injuries. However, Nephew Zhu was injured by a disciple of my Wind Sword School. How about this, the herbs used to treat Nephew Zhu will be paid by my Wind Sword School."
When Elder Gong heard this, he waved his hand and rejected, "There is no need. Could it be that my Heavenly Saber Gate cannot even treat the injuries of my disciples? Rather, your Wind Sword Sect's inner sect produced a good disciple! "
When Instructor Yang heard this, he put his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "Elder Gong is too kind. After this, Lu Xuan will definitely be a core disciple of my Wind Sword School. It is not embarrassing for Zhu Ling to be defeated by a core disciple of my Wind Sword School."
Although Instructor Yang said this, he was overjoyed. Even if Lu Xuan was going to enter the core disciple, he would only be an inner disciple. He would not have enjoyed the resources of a core disciple. However, your Heavenly Saber Gate's core disciple, who was ranked third, was defeated by Lu Xuan. This was a great humiliation.
Not only was Instructor Yang proud, but everyone in the Wind Sword School was proud, especially the ordinary inner disciples. They were so excited that they wanted to stomp their feet!
Senior Brother Lu actually defeated the third core disciple of the Heavenly Saber Gate! It was unbelievable for an inner disciple to defeat a core disciple. Before this, none of them were optimistic about Lu Xuan. Even when Lu Xuan successfully defeated Zhu Ling's first three moves, they were just proud of Lu Xuan.
When Lu Xuan defeated Zhu Ling's Night Fighting in Eight Directions, they only dared to think that Lu Xuan would be able to defeat Zhu Ling's second three moves. Defeating Zhu Ling was not within their consideration.
However, who would have thought that Lu Xuan would rely on the sword in his hand to not only break the second agreement of three moves, but also heavily injure Zhu Ling during the third move, forcefully seizing victory.
If it was not for the fact that the situation was not right, they would have already shouted to encourage Lu Xuan.
"Cool, really cool!" Xia Ye's face was red with excitement, and she forcefully suppressed her voice and said.
"I also … feel really cool." Mo Dengchen's face was also slightly red. It was rare for him to say such words, so he was obviously very happy.
"We won, we won. This time, Lu Xuan will definitely become famous in the entire Wind Sword School. Not only the inner sect, but even the core disciples will definitely know about Lu Xuan's prestige." Chen Xiaohan said happily. The person Lu Xuan defeated was the third core disciple of the Heavenly Saber Gate. Even if the core disciples of the Wind Sword School were to fight against him, they would be defeated in large numbers.
"Yes, we finally won. We can retreat in one piece. When I saw Zhu Ling's last move, I was very worried." Lin Xinyi let out a sigh of relief. Previously, she was worried that Lu Xuan would suffer some irreparable damage.
However, Elder Gong ignored Instructor Yang's words and continued to look at Lu Xuan. His eyes revealed a hint of provocation and he said, "Lu Xuan, didn't you want to use the pressure of the Heavenly Saber Gate disciples to break through to the ninth layer of the Body Refinement Realm? Now it seems that your wish has not been fulfilled. Apart from Zhu Ling, there are two more powerful core disciples in the Heavenly Saber Gate. You … still want to fight with them? "
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. The slightly chaotic scene quieted down again. Everyone's eyes were once again fixed on Lu Xuan. How would Lu Xuan answer?
Elder Jin, Instructor Yang, and Chen Mo's gazes stopped on Elder Gong for a while. They also looked at Lu Xuan. They never expected that Elder Gong would make such a suggestion. He actually wanted Lu Xuan to continue challenging the Heavenly Saber Gate's core disciples.
A dignified core disciple being challenged by an inner sect disciple was a shameful matter. Normally, Elder Gong would definitely not say such a thing. However, now that Zhu Ling, who was ranked third among the core disciples, was defeated by Lu Xuan, the Heavenly Saber Gate had already lost all its face. Since that was the case, he might as well throw caution to the wind. He would regain his face from where he lost. He did not believe that Lu Xuan could defeat the Heavenly Saber Gate alone.
Furthermore, Lu Xuan had just severely injured Zhu Ling. Elder Gong was still holding a grudge against him. If he did not recuperate properly, Zhu Ling might suffer irreparable injuries. If Lu Xuan were to accept the challenge, he would definitely let his disciple injure Lu Xuan's foundation and affect his innate talent! Otherwise, when Lu Xuan grew stronger, he would become a huge enemy for the Heavenly Saber Gate!
"Lu Xuan, give up now. This Elder Gong definitely does not have any good intentions!" Elder Jin immediately transmitted a message to Lu Xuan.
"Lu Xuan, give up. If you want to train yourself, follow me to the core disciples. I will let you fight to your heart's content!" Instructor Yang's calm voice also entered Lu Xuan's ears. He now had a very good impression of Lu Xuan. This was the best unpolished jade that he had seen in the Wind Sword School for so many years. After his carving, the Wind Sword School would definitely produce another late stage Spirit Refinement Realm expert, or even … … an Origin Realm expert!
"Lu Xuan, listen to your master. Give up. With your innate talent, breaking through to the ninth rank of Body Refinement Realm is just a matter of time." Chen Mo's voice quietly entered his ears.
The three late stage Spirit Refinement Realm experts from the Wind Sword School all agreed with Lu Xuan to give up. From their point of view, nothing was more important than Lu Xuan's safety. If it was a normal sparring session, it would be fine. But now, even a fool could see that Elder Gong did not have any good intentions.
"Shixiong Lu, you have earned enough face for our inner sect. These people from the Sky Saber Sect are not good people. They might be plotting against you. Stop fighting." A disciple suddenly shouted from below the stage. Lu Xuan turned his head and saw a disciple from the Sword Sect.
As soon as he said this, countless disciples immediately agreed.
"That's right. Shixiong Lu, there is still a long way to go. Next time, we will personally fight our way to the Sky Saber Sect!"
"Shixiong Lu, safety is more important!"
… …
Hearing the words of the disciples, Lu Xuan felt warmth in his heart. Among these disciples, many of them were people that he did not know. Other than the people from the Sword Sect, there were also disciples from the other sub-sects. They were all worried about him. He even saw some disciples from the Saber Sect shouting. At this moment, Lu Xuan had completely conquered these disciples from the Saber Sect.
"Lu Xuan, stop fighting. Sister Lin and I have been waiting for you for a long time!" A clear and melodious female voice sounded. It was Chen Xiaohan who was jumping and shouting.
Although Lin Xinyi did not say anything, her eyes were filled with concern. When their eyes met, Lu Xuan could feel Lin Xinyi's love and longing for him.
Just when Lu Xuan sighed in his heart and was about to give up, another beautiful face suddenly flashed in his mind.
"I believe in you!"
"I will wait for you to protect me."
… …
Zhao Binger's voice and smile, as well as her helplessness when she left in the face of a powerful enemy, appeared clearly in Lu Xuan's mind.
Lu Xuan remembered the grief and anger he felt when he could not even protect his woman because of his strength. He also remembered the bold words he said in the cave in the Hengduan Mountain Range that he wanted to become stronger. An unyielding will rose in his heart again!
That's right, I want to become stronger. I can't miss any opportunity to become stronger! Binger is still waiting for me in the Mysterious Ice Pagoda. I don't have that much time.
The path of martial arts is extremely dangerous. How can I give up the opportunity to break through because I am afraid of danger?
I have already watched Binger leave. If Xinyi, Xiaohan, and the others are in danger and I can't save them because I am not strong enough, how painful would that be for me?
A raging fire began to burn in Lu Xuan's heart. His eyes, which had softened previously, became firm once again!
Ignoring everyone's persuasion, Lu Xuan turned his gaze to Elder Gong.
"Since Senior Brother of the Sky Saber Sect is willing to teach me, then Lu Xuan is more than willing!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard that. Lu Xuan actually agreed to it!
