"Spirit weapon?"
Li Fei looked at Duan Lingtian as well.
He has a spirit weapon as well?
"No … It doesn't seem to be a spirit weapon. Your strength doesn't seem to have received any amplification. Moreover, even if it's a spirit weapon, it's impossible for it to completely ignore my Origin Energy. What sword is your sword? "
After Xiao Yu stood still, he glanced at Duan Lingtian with slight fear.
"Correct, my sword isn't a spirit weapon. However, there's a type of material within my sword that's sufficient to ignore Origin Energy below the Origin Core Stage. "
Duan Lingtian nodded as he spoke.
This was one of the characteristics of Violet Meteorite.
"Ignore Origin Energy below the Origin Core Stage?"
Duan Lingtian spoke simply, but in the ears of Xiao Yu and the others present, it caused their scalps to go numb.
Ignore Origin Energy below the Origin Core Stage.
In other words, Duan Lingtian only needed to catch his opponent off guard to gain the upper hand when using this sword.
Even a ninth level Core Formation martial artist could die under his sword if they were slightly careless.
"Then I'll change to another sword."
After Duan Lingtian sheathed his sword, he looked at the weapon rack at the side.
"No need, I'll use a weapon."
Xiao Yu shook his head and took a spear from the weapon rack. Origin Energy suffused the spear with a shake of his hand.
"Come!"
Xiao Yu looked at Duan Lingtian.
Spirit Serpent Movement Technique!
Sword Drawing Arts!
The Violet Meteorite Flexible Sword in Duan Ling Tian's hand was like a shadow that followed closely behind as it flashed towards Xiao Yu.
Sleeve Dimension!
Xiao Yu's spear shook and swept towards Duan Lingtian's sword. As the spear swayed, it perfectly contained the force exertion of Sleeve Dimension.
Ka!
A clear sound echoed out.
It was Duan Lingtian's sword that broke the spear in Xiao Yu's hand.
Duan Lingtian's Purple Meteorite Flexible Sword could even break a steel sword, not to mention Xiao Yu's ordinary spear.
"Looks like I can't fight you head on."
Xiao Yu's eyes narrowed. Holding the short spear in his hand, his figure flashed.
Shadowless Floating Light!
He executed his movement technique, and his speed was extremely fast.
Spirit Snake Movement Technique!
Duan Lingtian discovered that even if he went all out, it would still be difficult for him to catch up to Xiao Yu's speed.
"A high grade Profound Class movement skill at the Perfection Stage!"
Duan Lingtian's heart shook as he understood.
He didn't expect this.
This Xiao Yu had actually cultivated a Profound Rank high tier offensive martial skill and movement martial skill to the Perfection Stage.
Even his high-grade Profound Rank defensive martial skill had been cultivated to the Great Success Stage.
Such a level of comprehension was monstrous!
"Of all the martial techniques in the world, only speed is invincible! Duan Lingtian, be careful. I'm about to attack. "
Xiao Yu's voice was clear and cold.
Duan Lingtian was the only person who was able to make him execute three different martial skills today. He had received the respect he deserved.
Duan Lingtian's heart sank when he heard this.
He felt the pressure.
He began to be vigilant.
Universe Creator!
Xiao Yu rushed forward like a bolt of lightning, arriving behind Duan Lingtian. He swung the broken spear in his hand and aimed it at Duan Lingtian's back.
Just when he thought that Duan Lingtian would be sent flying by his spear.
Whoosh!
Duan Lingtian's body leaned forward like a spirit snake, barely dodging Xiao Yu's attack.
"You have some skills!"
Xiao Yu's eyes lit up, his battle intent rising.
Even though Duan Lingtian dodged Xiao Yu's attack, he was still drenched in cold sweat.
If it wasn't for the reflexes he developed as a special forces soldier in his previous life, it would have been very difficult for him to dodge Xiao Yu's attack just now with his Great Success Stage 《Spirit Snake Movement Technique》.
Following that, Xiao Yu attacked several times.
Every time, he caught Duan Lingtian off guard …
But he realized that Duan Lingtian was always able to dodge his attacks, which made him a little suspicious.
Did this Duan Lingtian have an 'intuition' that was not inferior to his?
What he didn't know was that after dodging his attacks a few times, Duan Lingtian's nerves were already extremely tired.
Universe Creator!
Xiao Yu once again used a speed that far surpassed Duan Lingtian's and arrived behind Duan Lingtian. The broken spear once again descended.
"Ah!"
This time, Duan Lingtian, whose nerves were in pain, couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
And at this moment, his legs trembled and his entire body instantly shot out into the distance, causing Xiao Yu's attack to hit empty air.
"That is …"
Looking at the white light that suffused Duan Lingtian's legs, Xiao Yu was stunned.
"It's origin force!"
"Oh my god! Duan Lingtian broke through? "
"Duan Lingtian actually managed to develop origin force during his battle with Xiao Yu … Unbelievable!"
… …
Many people were dumbstruck.
"He broke through?"
Li Fei looked at this scene and was stunned.
"Brother is probably going to lose."
A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Xiao Lan's mouth.
"This Duan Lingtian is simply a monster!"
Xiao Yun frowned and said.
"Haha! Xiao Yu, take my sword! "
Duan Lingtian laughed loudly as origin force flashed beneath his feet. Above his head, four ancient mammoth silhouettes dashed out.
Spirit Serpent Movement Technique!
Duan Lingtian's current speed was slightly faster than Xiao Yu's.
Developing origin force under pressure and breaking through to the Core Formation stage …
Even Duan Lingtian was somewhat caught off guard.
He originally thought that he still needed a period of time to break through, but he didn't expect that he would break through under these circumstances.
At the end of the day, he still had to thank Xiao Yu.
Om!
Duan Lingtian instantly arrived before Xiao Yu and swung his sword downwards.
Universe in the Sleeve!
Xiao Yu knew that Duan Lingtian's current speed surpassed his, so he could only choose to fight head on with Duan Lingtian.
Fortunately, Duan Lingtian didn't use a sword blade.
It couldn't be considered as relying on a sharp weapon.
But even so.
Pa!
The Violet Meteorite Flexible Sword in Duan Lingtian's hand slapped onto the broken spear in Xiao Yu's hand.
Om!
The broken spear started to tremble.
Xiao Yu discovered that the strength of Universe in the Sleeve was completely crushed.
Intense pain came from the web between his thumb and forefinger. Only then did Xiao Yu notice that his web between his thumb and forefinger had been split open by Duan Lingtian's sword and was dripping with blood.
"I've lost."
Xiao Yu said calmly.
"If I hadn't just broken through to the Core Formation stage, the one who lost would have been me …"
Duan Lingtian smiled.
"Luck is also a part of strength."
Xiao Yu smiled.
Duan Lingtian displayed the strength of four ancient mammoths. Even if Duan Lingtian's movement technique was a stage lower than his, his speed had already steadily surpassed his.
The extra strength of an ancient mammoth completely surpassed the difference of a stage between a high grade Profound Rank martial skill.
"Developing origin force during battle and breaking through to the Core Formation stage … This is also possible?"
Many people were dumbstruck.
Until now, they still hadn't been able to react to the scene from before.
When they saw Duan Lingtian being suppressed by Xiao Yu, they all thought that Duan Lingtian wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.
But who would have thought.
Duan Lingtian actually developed origin force at the critical moment and broke through to the first level of the Core Formation stage, controlling the strength of four ancient mammoths and launching a counterattack to suppress Xiao Yu.
Obtaining the final victory.
"Good!"
Only when they reacted did they start cheering.
"Duan Lingtian, you fully deserve to be first in this year's Hidden Dragon List! As for the reward, our Xiao Clan members will personally deliver it to you. "
Xiao Yu nodded and smiled at Duan Lingtian.
He wholeheartedly accepted his defeat under Duan Lingtian's strength of four ancient mammoths.
But a soaring battle intent still arose within his heart.
Once he breaks through to the third level of the Core Formation stage, he would surely challenge Duan Lingtian again.
"Sorry for the trouble."
Duan Lingtian nodded and smiled.
"Right, I still have a question, but I don't know if it's convenient for you to answer."
Suddenly, Xiao Yu asked.
"You want to ask me why I'm able to possess the strength of three ancient mammoths when I'm only at the ninth level of the Body Tempering stage, right?"
Duan Lingtian asked with a smile.
Xiao Yu nodded. He was slightly surprised at Duan Lingtian's wisdom.
"When I went to the Misty Forest last time, I found a spirit fruit. After consuming it, I noticed that my body underwent a transformation and had the strength of two ancient mammoths."
Duan Lingtian explained.
He naturally wouldn't mention the matter of the Nine Dragons War Sovereign Technique and casually found an excuse.
Moreover, there were indeed similar spirit fruits in Cloud Continent.
"So that's how it is. Your luck is pretty good … However, to be able to break through to the Core Formation stage at the age of sixteen, with the natural talent you've displayed now, even in the entire Aurora City, you're the first person to do so in the past hundred years."
Xiao Yu glanced deeply at Duan Lingtian.
"It's all thanks to you that I was able to break through today. “
Duan Lingtian smiled.
If it wasn't for the pressure that Xiao Yu gave him, he wouldn't have been able to directly complete the breakthrough.
"In that case, you owe me a favor?"
Xiao Yu seized the opportunity.
"You can say that."
Duan Lingtian didn't deny it.
"If that's the case, I'll treat you and Li Fei to a banquet tonight. You shouldn't refuse, right?"
Xiao Yu asked again.
"You'll have to ask her."
Duan Lingtian looked at Li Fei.
Li Fei was walking over when she heard Duan Lingtian's words. Her angelic face flushed red, and her heart slightly trembled …
Thinking of the agreement she made with Duan Lingtian before, she wished for nothing more than to dig a hole and hide in it.
"Then let's have a meal before going back."
Li Fei nodded.
Next, Xiao Yu invited Lin Zhuo, Lin Qi, and Meng Quan.
Besides Meng Quan who was in a hurry to go back, Lin Zhuo and Lin Qi stayed behind.
The others went back to their own homes.
They knew their own limitations. They didn't have the qualifications to be invited by Xiao Yu.
Today's gathering of geniuses came to an end.
The rankings of this year's Hidden Dragon Ranking were out.
First, Duan Lingtian.
Second, Xiao Yu.
Third, Lin Zhuo.
Fourth, Meng Quan.
Fifth, Li Qing.
Sixth, Li An.
Seventh and eighth were tied, Li Fei and Xiao Lan respectively.
Ninth and tenth were tied, Xiao Yun and Lin Qi respectively.
That night, Xiao Yu held a banquet in a spacious courtyard.
Apart from Duan Lingtian, Li Rou, Lin Zhuo, and Lin Qi, there was only Xiao Yu, Xiao Lan, and Xiao Yun.
"Lin Zhuo, your strength isn't any weaker than Meng Quan. Why don't you try the Iron Blood Army's Genius Camp?"
At the banquet, Xiao Yu asked Lin Zhuo.
Hearing this, Lin Zhuo bitterly smiled, "Xiao Yu, I want to go, but my father won't allow it. You know that it's fine if you don't pass the Genius Camp's exam. But if you pass the exam and enter the Genius Camp, it's almost certain death. I'm not afraid, but my father won't let me take the risk. "
"A person's life is naturally filled with difficulties and obstacles. I feel that this is an opportunity for me."
Xiao Yu's eyes flickered, filled with yearning.
"Your grandfather is willing to let you go?"
Lin Zhuo had a strange look in his eyes.
"On this point, he's more open-minded than your father. However, even if he doesn't allow it, I'll still go … Aurora City isn't the stage I yearn for. If I continue to stay in Aurora City, I'll only walk the same path as my grandfather. The Nascent Soul Stage is the end, and then I'll just be waiting for death. Maybe it's because he's experienced it before that he didn't stop me. "
