At this moment, Lu Xuan had already become the focus of all the disciples' attention. Such a strong result was right in front of them. They could not be dissatisfied.
The people of the Saber Sect had already laid down their flags and stopped their drums. Zheng Gang, whom they were so proud of, had already been ruthlessly trampled under Lu Xuan's feet. He no longer had any reason to be arrogant. The provocative words that Zheng Gang had said to the Sword Sect now seemed like a huge joke. Lu Xuan had used his results to ruthlessly slap Zheng Gang and the people of the Sword Sect in the face.
Even Elder Jin, who was the Vice Sect Leader of the Wind Sword School, could not remain calm at this moment. The record that the Wind Sword School had maintained for so many years had actually been broken just like that?
In terms of strength, Lu Xuan's current strength was nothing in Elder Jin's eyes. Even if Lu Xuan had obtained first place in the new disciple test and directly entered the overall ranking, it would only increase his interest a little.
This was because no matter how strong he was, he was only among the inner sect disciples. Above the inner sect disciples were the core disciples. Among the core disciples, of the same age, there were many whose cultivation was higher than Lu Xuan's. Take Xia Chenxi for example. She was younger than Lu Xuan, but her cultivation had already reached the sixth-tier of the Body Refinement Realm.
What truly shocked Elder Jin was that Lu Xuan had entered the overall ranking with the strength of the fifth-tier of the Body Refinement Realm. In the Sword Forest, he had killed a seventh-tier of the Body Refinement Realm martial artist. This kind of battle talent was simply amazing!
On the path of cultivation, cultivation talent was indeed important. This was because it determined a martial artist's cultivation speed, as well as the highest realm they could reach. For the majority of martial artists, cultivation realm was the guarantee of their strength.
But just as important as cultivation talent was battle talent. This was because for some geniuses, cultivation realm did not mean everything. It did not mean anything. How high one's cultivation realm was depended on what kind of strength one was able to display.
If it was a battle, the other party wouldn't take the initiative to admit defeat just because one's cultivation level was higher than theirs. In the end, what decided everything was still combat strength.
Right now, Lu Xuan was only at the fifth rank of the Body Refinement Realm, yet he was able to kill a martial artist at the seventh rank of the Body Refinement Realm. This kind of battle talent really made people look at him in a new light. Wait until his realm increases, then his battle strength will definitely become more and more powerful. What the Wind Sword School needed was not a martial artist with a strong realm, but a martial artist with a strong battle strength! Only in this way could they protect the Wind Sword School.
Elder Jin's mind raced when he saw Lu Xuan's name. He had already made up his mind that he would pay close attention to this disciple named Lu Xuan. If it was possible, he would make an exception and accept him as a core disciple.
The resources that a core disciple enjoyed far exceeded that of an inner sect disciple. If he could obtain a large amount of resources, then Lu Xuan's realm would increase even faster. At that time, even if his realm was lower than the others, his battle strength would far surpass martial artists of the same level. In terms of strength, he would definitely not be inferior to the other core disciples.
While everyone was discussing about Lu Xuan, in the sword forest, Lu Xuan was already at a very critical juncture.
Previously, the reason why he was able to kill the martial artist at the seventh rank of the Body Refinement Realm in one move was because of the powerful killing power of the eighth form of the Lightning Light Sword Art. On the other hand, it was because he took advantage of the fact that these martial artists at the seventh rank of the Body Refinement Realm were not prepared at all.
But now, when these martial artists reacted, Lu Xuan's situation instantly became dangerous.
Three martial artists at the seventh rank of the Body Refinement Realm attacked at the same time. How powerful was their power? Wave after wave of extremely powerful attacks continuously attacked Lu Xuan. Every attack contained a powerful Yuan Power. Just the power of the attacks alone was enough to make Lu Xuan shrink back. He did not dare to face them head-on. Otherwise, even if he did not die, he would definitely be seriously injured.
Now, Lu Xuan finally experienced the difference between realms. The fifth rank of the Body Refinement Realm and the seventh rank of the Body Refinement Realm were two whole small realms apart. The Yuan Power that both parties possessed was simply not on the same order of magnitude.
With the three martial artists closing in step by step, Lu Xuan could only continuously retreat. Wave after wave of attacks brushed past Lu Xuan's body. It was extremely thrilling. If not for the fact that Lu Xuan's sword intent had already reached the entry level and he had a strong intuition for weaknesses, he would have long been eliminated.
The jade tablet was already tightly grasped in Lu Xuan's left hand, ready to be crushed at any time. At this moment, the jade tablet was covered in sweat. It had already been soaked by the sweat that had emerged from Lu Xuan's palm. If things were not going well, he would not be so foolish as to risk serious injuries and continue to persist.
However, he had not reached his limit yet. This was because his most powerful killing move had yet to be unleashed. Naturally, he would not give up just like that. Even if it was very difficult for him to endure, he still persisted with all his might, searching for that sliver of an opportunity to attack.
"If only I had a movement technique right now. As long as I could find a sliver of an opportunity to attack, I would definitely be able to reverse the situation!" Lu Xuan secretly said in his heart.
The three opponents were all faster than him. Wanting to find an opportunity to attack was too difficult. Especially when the three of them were attacking together. Even if there was a sliver of an opportunity, it would be quickly covered by the other two. Lu Xuan simply did not have enough time to act.
If he had a movement technique, then Lu Xuan could completely use it to create that split second of an advantageous situation, giving himself a chance to break out of the situation.
But unfortunately, Lu Xuan could only think about it. Not to mention that he did not have a movement technique, even if he did, there was no time for him to learn it. If he wanted to break out of the situation, he would still have to rely on himself.
"Why hasn't Lu Xuan come out after so long? His points haven't increased, could it be that something happened? "A disciple outside the arena said in a low voice.
"A fifth rank Body Refinement cultivator against a seventh rank Body Refinement cultivator, this is not a joke. Could it be that Lu Xuan played with fire and died inside?"
"Impossible! On the Ranking Stone Tablet, his name is still lit, which means that he is still fighting. Perhaps he is entangled with the enemy, looking for an opportunity to win. "
Hearing the discussions of the disciples, the originally gloomy Zheng Gang couldn't help but feel a trace of anticipation.
Lu Xuan seemed to be an extremely prideful person with a single glance. If he were to fall in the Sword Forest while fighting with all his might against an enemy at the 7th level of the Body Refinement Realm for the sake of obtaining an unprecedented good result, then that would be fun!
If that was the case, he would still be this year's first place. Even if Lu Xuan didn't die, if he ended up with a heavy injury that would affect his future path of cultivation, then that would also be extremely good.
Thinking of this, Zheng Gang suddenly had a glimmer of hope. His face revealed an extremely evil smile, and in his heart, he silently prayed that Lu Xuan would best die inside.
The people that Lu Xuan was most worried about were undoubtedly the people of the Sword Sect, especially Xia Ye, Lin Xinyi, Elder Cheng, and the others. Some of them had close relationships with Lu Xuan, and some of them hoped that Lu Xuan would revive the Sword Sect.
