A breakthrough in battle could happen to anyone, and it was a kind of opportunity for everyone.
Wang Xiong's last-minute breakthrough had not only helped him, but it had also helped the Cold Mountain Residence behind him.
Now, in everyone's opinion, Wang Xiong not only had a chance to be in the top three, but he had a chance to be in the first place!
"With Wang Xiong's strength, even Duan Lingtian might not be a match for him, right?"
Many people thought so.
There were even people who said what they thought.
After all, although Duan Lingtian had only briefly displayed his strength, according to some middle-level God Emperors, they were not optimistic about Duan Lingtian's chances.
"Duan Lingtian's strength is not a match for Wang Xiong's current strength!"
"My Patriarch also said that Duan Lingtian is most likely not a match for Wang Xiong!"
…
As some middle-level God Emperors spoke, a group of people suddenly felt that Duan Lingtian would definitely be defeated if he went up against Wang Xiong!
Duan Lingtian's strength was at most on the same level as Lin Yuan's.
If an ordinary person had said this, others might have doubted it.
However, it was not just one middle-level God Emperor who said this. Moreover, they were middle-level God Emperors from different factions … Under such circumstances, no one doubted it.
At this time, even the group of prodigies from Chunyang School did not look too good.
Of course, the ones with the worst expressions were the group of higher-ups from Chunyang School.
Other than Ye Chenfeng, who still looked calm, Liu Fenggu, Zhen Pingfan, and the others did not look too good. They all felt that Duan Lingtian would not be a match for Wang Xiong.
Some disciples from Chunyang School could not help but want to ask Duan Lingtian, but when they saw Duan Lingtian's serious expression, they all shut up.
At the same time, they also confirmed that Duan Lingtian would not be a match for Wang Xiong.
"Even a group of Middle-level Emperor God experts said so … This matter is obviously true."
"What a pity … I originally thought that the Duan Lingtian would take first place in the Seven Prefectures Feast."
"Yeah, what a pity."
…
Although many people in the Chunyang School were communicating with each other, they were all transmitting their voices to each other. They were afraid that they would irritate the Duan Lingtian and their elders. After all, it was not a good thing for the Chunyang School.
Of course, there were also people who were happy.
For example, Moqi Hong from the Moqi Clan.
Moqi Hong glanced at Duan Lingtian with a brilliant smile on his face. "Duan Lingtian, so what if your strength has improved? So what if I'm still inferior to you? "
"I, Moqi Hong, have no chance of taking first place in the Seven Prefectures' Grand Banquet, and neither do you!"
Now, Moqi Hong was directly mocking Duan Lingtian through voice transmission, as if he had completely forgotten that even if Duan Lingtian didn't have a chance to win the first place, he would definitely be in the top three.
"Huh?"
When Duan Lingtian heard Moqi Hong's voice transmission, he was stunned at first. Then, he turned his head and looked deeply at Moqi Hong. "Even if I can't take first place, I think I have no problem getting into the top three."
"Unlike someone … who has no chance of getting into the top three."
"No … Maybe he doesn't even have a chance of getting into the top five?"
When Duan Ling Tian reached the end of his sentence, the corners of his mouth curled up into a mocking smile. This caused the smile on the corner of Moqi Hong's mouth to freeze. His expression instantly turned gloomy as killing intent flashed in his eyes.
When Duan Lingtian saw that Moqi Hong had stopped talking, he withdrew his gaze and ignored him.
As far as he was concerned, this Moqi Hong was nothing more than a clown!
However, Lin Yuan had actually failed to challenge Wang Xiong... This was something that no one had expected beforehand!
Even Duan Lingtian had not expected this.
Especially after Lin Yuan and Wang Xiong had fought, he felt that it was more likely that the two of them would end up in a draw.
However, he did not expect Wang Xiong to have a breakthrough at the critical moment and master the Fledgling Sword Dao. His strength had risen to another level, allowing him to defeat Wang Xiong in one fell swoop.
"Let's go."
Since Lin Yuan had failed to challenge Wang Xiong, and Wang Xiong had chosen to rest and did not continue to challenge, the Seven Prefectures Banquet ranking battle had come to an end.
The next round would begin the next day.
Wang Xiong was number three, and Han Di was number two. He did not have the qualifications to challenge Duan Lingtian.
However, after witnessing Wang Xiong and Lin Yuan's strength, Han Di was mentally prepared to withdraw from the top three. Even if Wang Xiong displayed even more shocking strength later on, he was still numb to it.
In this Seven Prefectures Banquet, the biggest dark horse was Wang Xiong.
Time and time again, he had refreshed everyone's understanding of him.
…
When Duan Lingtian returned with the Chunyang School's group, it was very quiet along the way. Everyone had a tacit understanding and did not mention anything about what had happened earlier.
Even Zhen Pingfan did not send a voice transmission to Duan Lingtian this time. He was afraid that he would give Duan Lingtian too much pressure.
As for advising Duan Lingtian to admit defeat if he felt that he was not a match for Wang Xiong … he did not say anything.
At this point in the Seven Prefectures Banquet ranking battle, it was no longer important whether one was injured or not.
As for dying, that was impossible.
Therefore, he did not say much.
Everything was up to Duan Lingtian's own wishes.
In fact, when everyone returned, the situation of the Seven Prefectures Banquet had also spread to Chunyang School.
The group of decision-makers in Chunyang School, as well as the group of intermediate God Emperors, were all silent this time.
Although they were a little disappointed.
After all, they had previously thought that Duan Lingtian had a chance of winning first place in the Seven Prefectures Banquet.
However, when they realized that even if Duan Lingtian could not win first place in the Seven Prefectures Banquet, he could at least get into the top three, they were a little relieved.
This was much better than what they had expected at the beginning.
In addition, there was also Yang Qianye, who was in the top ten.
Even if Duan Lingtian only got into the top three of the Seven Prefectures Banquet, their Chunyang School would still be able to get five spots this time!
Five spots were enough.
…
"Elder Ye, is something the matter?"
Seeing that everyone from Chunyang School, including Zhen Pingfan, had left, not only did Ye Chenfeng not return to his residence, but he also followed him to his residence. Duan Lingtian, who had just noticed him, could not help but be stunned.
"Let's go in first."
Ye Chenfeng smiled.
Hearing this, Duan Lingtian nodded. At the same time, he could not help but think, 'Why did this Elder Ye follow me here?
To comfort me?
That's not necessary, right? '
Moreover, it was not the first day that this Elder Ye knew him. He should not think that he was that weak, right?
"Duan Lingtian."
After entering the courtyard of Duan Lingtian's residence, Ye Chenfeng casually waved his hand and took out a formation plate. He then set up an isolation formation, isolating himself and Duan Lingtian inside.
Seeing this, Duan Lingtian's expression became slightly serious.
This Elder Ye most likely had some secret matter to tell him ….
Was it about the Ultimate Spiritual Abode?
Thinking of this, Duan Lingtian's eyes could not help but light up.
"Enter the small world in my body and observe the true meaning of the Sword Principle that I have comprehended from the inspiration I received from the exchange with your master …"
"Although it is not perfect, it might be of some help to you."
"After all, the Sword Principle that you have mastered is of the same origin as your master's, and so is it."
While Duan Lingtian was looking forward to Ye Chenfeng talking about the Ultimate Spiritual Abode, he did not receive any news about it. Instead, he received such words.
Regarding this, although Duan Lingtian was a little disappointed, he could not help but smile bitterly. "Elder Ye, that is the Sword Principle that you have mastered … It is not appropriate to pass it on to me, is it?"
The true meaning of the Sword Principle was something that affected the improvement of the Sword Principle …
If the level of the Sword Principle was compared to the character level of the role-playing online games on Earth in his previous life, then the true meaning of the Sword Principle was the 'experience' used to level up.
"There is nothing inappropriate about it."
Ye Chenfeng shook his head and said, "I benefited a lot from the exchange with your master. The true meaning of the Sword Principle was also inspired by him. "
"It can be said that most of it came from him."
"Now, it is only natural that I return this favor to you."
Ye Chenfeng said matter-of-factly.
"Moreover, you have seen your current situation … If I am not wrong, you do not have the confidence to defeat Wang Xiong now, right?"
"I don't know if you have hidden your strength before … If not, I am afraid that you have no hope of fighting him to a draw. Even if you have the hope of fighting him to a draw, it will be difficult to defeat him. "
"If that is the case, why don't you observe the Sword Principle that I have just comprehended? If you can comprehend something from it, it may be of great help to your strength."
It had to be said that Duan Lingtian was moved by Ye Chenfeng's words.
After a moment, Duan Lingtian took a deep breath and finally gritted his teeth and agreed. "Elder Ye, I will not say any sentimental words, and I will not say any more … I, Duan Lingtian, will remember this favor in my heart."
"You don't have to do this."
Ye Chenfeng shook his head and said, "I just told you that this favor is repaid to your master."
"When I mentioned you to your master many times, I could see how much he valued you … In his eyes, you are no different from his own son."
"Alright, time is limited. You can enter my small world now."
"I will demonstrate my newly comprehended Sword Principle True Meaning inside. It is the same Sword Principle True Meaning that you and your master have grasped …"
Then, with Ye Chenfeng's cooperation, Duan Lingtian also entered his small world.
Ye Chenfeng's small world was an empty and barren land. The only things that could be seen everywhere were the sword-shaped stones that were suspended in the sky.
These sword-shaped stones were of different sizes.
Some were suspended in the void, some were rooted in the barren land, and some were like pillars that pierced through the sky and earth of Ye Chenfeng's small world.
While Duan Lingtian was observing Ye Chenfeng's small world, Ye Chenfeng's voice echoed in his ears. "I have named this small world 'Sword World'."
"Each of these sword-shaped stones in front of you has a Sword Principle Mark that I have left on them … Of course, the Sword Principle Marks on some of them have faded a lot due to the passage of time.
However, they all have the Sword Principle Mark. "
"Without the Sword Principle Mark, the stones will automatically turn into dust and cease to exist."
