Although Du Xiaomao had yet to master the Mysterious Ice Finger, it was more than enough to deal with the current Han Feng. If Du Xiaomao did not stop her previous attacks, perhaps Han Feng could still clench his teeth and fight. But just now, Han Feng thought that the outcome was already decided and completely relaxed. How could he still have the strength to deal with Du Xiaomao's Mysterious Ice Finger?
A pale blue luster quickly condensed on Du Xiaomao's fingertip. The Mysterious Ice Finger instantly condensed, but Du Xiaomao did not release it. At this moment, Han Feng no longer had any strength to fight against Du Xiaomao. Moreover, there were still the repercussions of using the forbidden technique. If he was hit by this finger, it would definitely be one disaster after another.
"Admit defeat." Du Xiaomao looked at Han Feng and said indifferently.
Han Feng clenched his teeth. His body could not help but tremble because of the lack of strength. He did not think that he would still lose in the end after using the forbidden technique. In fact, he did not lose unjustly. Du Xiaomao's ice concept had already entered the middle stage, and she also had the Void Twist and the Mysterious Ice Finger.
But, he was not willing!
Han Feng knew that he had no other choice but to admit defeat. However, he was currently representing Nangong Shuo. It was not up to him to decide whether to admit defeat or not. Thinking of this, Han Feng could not help but look at Nangong Shuo on the stage.
Meeting Han Feng's gaze, Nangong Shuo's face did not reveal any special emotions. He was still as calm as an ancient well, as if Han Feng's defeat had nothing to do with him. He only slightly shook his head and said, "Admit defeat."
Han Feng was finally dejected. If Nangong Shuo had allowed him to continue fighting, perhaps he would have been happier. But now that Nangong Shuo had asked him to admit defeat, perhaps it meant that he would not be placed in an important position among Nangong Shuo's disciples in the future.
"I … admit defeat." Han Feng said with difficulty.
Du Xiaomao lightly nodded. Since Han Feng had already admitted defeat, there was no need for her to poke out her finger. The light on her fingertip began to dissipate.
"In this battle, Martial Niece Du's skill is a level higher. Not bad. You are indeed young and promising." Nangong Shuo said indifferently.
When his words came out, all the elders in the hall revealed different expressions. Some revealed worried expressions, some were calm and indifferent, some breathed a sigh of relief, and some revealed smiles.
Du Xiaomao's victory over Han Feng meant that the prestige that Nangong Shuo had accumulated over the years was challenged for the first time.
Without a doubt, Su Chuanan was the one who laughed the happiest. He did not need to avoid Nangong Shuo's thoughts. The conflict between the two of them was already known to everyone. Since Nangong Shuo's dignity had suffered a blow, it meant that he had a greater chance. Furthermore, in the process of defeating Han Feng, Du Xiaomao had used one of his unique martial techniques, the Void Twist.
Thinking about it, Su Chuanan felt a little regretful that he hadn't been able to take Du Xiaomao as his disciple. In terms of perception and talent, Du Xiaomao was undoubtedly better than Xiao Zhaohong. However, Su Chuanan knew that this couldn't be forced. If these disciples had to choose between him and Zhao Ying as their master, there would undoubtedly be more who would choose Zhao Ying. Not only was Zhao Ying stronger, but she also had fewer disciples.
"Haha, I did not expect martial nephew Du to have such a high level of comprehension. In less than a month's time, you have actually grasped the Void Twist to such an extent. Your talent is indeed extraordinary!" Su Chuanan said with a chuckle. The moment Du Xiaomao reversed the situation was when she used the Void Twist to dodge Han Feng's Sun Piercing Rainbow. Naturally, Su Chuanan was proud.
However, Nangong Shuo was not willing to give Su Chuanan another chance to display his skills. Although he acted as if he didn't care, how could he really not care? Sitting in a position like his, it was necessary to not show his emotions.
"Martial nephew Du, do you still want to continue the challenge?" Nangong Shuo interrupted Su Chuanan's words and asked. The reason why he asked this was because everyone could see that Du Xiaomao had exhausted a lot of energy to defeat Han Feng.
Du Xiaomao shook her head and said, "Let the other senior brothers do it."
After speaking, Du Xiaomao immediately walked straight back to Zhao Ying's position. Zhao Ying revealed a trace of a smile and said to Du Xiaomao, "You did well."
After so many years, it was the first time that she let a disciple fight. Naturally, Zhao Ying did not want to lose. Following that, she took the initiative to hold Du Xiaomao's hand.
Du Xiaomao felt a dense Origin Power quickly seeping into her meridians. The Origin Power that was not small was immediately replenished.
Du Xiaomao hurriedly said, "Thank you, master."
Being able to obtain Zhao Ying's affirmation was undoubtedly the happiest thing for Du Xiaomao. Zhao Ying shook her head, indicating that there was no need to thank her.
At this moment, in the main hall, there was actually no one going up. The new direct disciples of Nangong Shuo's faction had already gone up to increase Han Feng's battle record. Now, only the new direct disciples of Su Chuanan's faction were left. Su Chuanan did not say anything, and the elders of his faction also did not act rashly.
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "Looks like it's my turn."
Without the slightest hesitation, Lu Xuan strode forward and directly entered the main hall! For a moment, the somewhat deserted main hall could not help but have a trace of a fiery atmosphere.
With regards to Lu Xuan, all the elders and disciples present were not unfamiliar with him. The elders had long known that the first place in the Profound Ice Secret Realm was Lu Xuan, a disciple from a third-grade sect, who had successfully become Zhao Ying's only male disciple. However, this was not the reason why the elders were truly concerned about Lu Xuan. More importantly, it was because they knew of Lu Xuan's battle record in the battle of Wind Sword School. Not only did he not lose, he even killed three experts in the ninth tier of Spirit Refinement realm!
For a warrior in the fifth tier of Spirit Refinement realm, this was an extremely swift and fierce battle record! However, what they did not know was that when Lu Xuan achieved this, he was only in the fourth tier of Spirit Refinement realm. Of course, killing three elders in the ninth tier of Spirit Refinement realm was also because of Bing Ling's help.
And the reason why the disciples were concerned about Lu Xuan was because Lu Xuan had successfully won the heart of the dream lover of all the male disciples of Profound Ice Pavilion, Zhao Bing 'er. Furthermore, he had dared to openly provoke Leng Qingqiu. For young people, this was undoubtedly exciting.
"Disciple Lu Xuan, 18 years old, fifth tier of Spirit Refinement realm, from the third-grade sect Wind Sword School. Now, I am Elder Zhao Ying's disciple. Greetings elders, greetings seniors!" Lu Xuan held his head high and chest out. He cupped his hands and said loudly. He knew that many people had some opinions about him because he came from a third-grade sect, but he just had to say it out loud.
Lu Xuan's announcement undoubtedly made many people take a deep breath. Although they had a lot of information about Lu Xuan, it was really shocking to think that Lu Xuan had reached the fifth tier of Spirit Refinement realm at the age of 18.
Lu Xuan was born in a poor family. Unlike the disciples of big sects, according to the information they had, before Lu Xuan joined the Wind Sword School, he was only at the fourth tier of Body Refinement realm. In less than two years, he had leaped to the fifth tier of Spirit Refinement realm. No one could keep up with this kind of rapid progress. There was only one sentence that could describe Lu Xuan. How could a golden qilin be a thing in a pond? Once he met the wind and clouds, he would transform into a dragon!
Seeing Lu Xuan appear, Su Chuanan was undoubtedly very happy. Before Lu Xuan had become Zhao Ying's disciple, he had formed a good relationship with Lu Xuan, and their current relationship was not bad. More importantly, because of Du Xiaomao's previous performance, in the eyes of the elders, Lu Xuan belonged to his faction.
"Elder Shi, your grandson has also become your disciple this year, right? Let everyone witness your grandson's strength. "Su Chuanan took the initiative to call out.
Lu Xuan understood that Su Chuanan was starting to help him build up his reputation. The person he called out was undoubtedly from his faction.
This Elder Shi was also introduced to Lu Xuan by Zhao Binger. His name was very domineering, Shi Potian, at the fourth tier of the Origin Realm.
Shi Potian laughed and said, "This useless grandson of mine naturally can't be compared to the elite disciples here. But since he is here, he naturally has to show off. Xiao Hao, go up and spar with Lu Xuan."
Then a young disciple behind him cupped his hands and said, "Yes, grandfather."
"I am Shi Hao, greet senior brother Lu. I am 21 years old this year, at the sixth tier of Spirit Refinement realm." Shi Hao walked in front of Lu Xuan and bowed to Lu Xuan.
Shi Hao's age and cultivation level were higher than Lu Xuan, but he still called Lu Xuan senior brother. This was undoubtedly because of Zhao Ying. In terms of status, his grandfather couldn't be compared to Zhao Ying.
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "Senior brother Shi need not be so courteous. According to our age, I should call you senior brother."
Lu Xuan was also a person who would return the favor tenfold. Since Shi Hao was so courteous, he naturally greeted him with a smile. However, in his heart, he was thinking about the names of the grandfather and grandson. The grandfather was Shi Potian, and the grandson was Shi Ritian. He didn't know the name of the grandfather and grandson.
Shi Hao naturally didn't know what Lu Xuan was thinking. Seeing how humble Lu Xuan was, he had a good impression of him and wanted to be friends with him. Regarding Lu Xuan's information, he knew that he wouldn't be a match for Lu Xuan.
"Senior Brother Lu, you're too courteous. Let's have a casual spar."
"Senior brother Shi, please."
"Please!"
After the two finished their greetings, they both took out their weapons. Lu Xuan still held his high-grade human-step Shattered Ice Sword, and Shi Hao also held a high-grade human-step Precious Artifact. For their current strength, a high-grade human-step Precious Artifact was already powerful enough. An earth-step Precious Artifact was not that easy to obtain.
Shi Hao made the first move. Although he had heard of Lu Xuan's strength, hearing about him was not as good as seeing him in person. He also wanted to test him, so he used his most proficient high-grade Mysterious Martial Skill!
Although he had just become Shi Potian's disciple, as Shi Potian's grandson, he had already received a high-grade Mysterious Martial Skill.
With Lu Xuan's keen eyes, he had a rough estimate of Shi Hao's strength as soon as he saw him make his move. Among those of the same level, Shi Hao could be considered a decent existence. However, against a monster like Lu Xuan, Shi Hao was still not much of a match. With a thought, Lu Xuan no longer took out the martial arts technique he was so proud of. Instead, he used the first style of the Startling Cloud Sword Technique, the Startling Wind Sword Technique!
His cultivation was clearly lower than his opponent's, but he still dared to use a low-grade Mysterious Martial Skill to deal with a high-grade Mysterious Martial Skill. Only Lu Xuan would dare to do such a thing.
