Before leaving the villa, Sun Mo used Soul Imprint to transmit the essence of the Ancient Dragon Capturing Hands Spirit Rune into Li Ziqi's mind.
The little sunny egg was completely uninterested in things like fighting and killing. If it wasn't for the fact that she wanted to follow Sun Mo, she definitely wouldn't have come to the battle hall.
At this moment, Li Ziqi had been thinking about the spirit rune that was filled with industrial beauty. In the end, when she heard Lu Zhiruo's exclamation, she immediately raised her head and looked toward the arena.
Every school would have a few influential figures, either positive or negative.
Cai Tan was the top ranker among the new students back then. When he was a first-year student, he passed the test and entered the battle hall. After that, he climbed all the way to the # 10 position in one go.
Just when everyone thought that Cai Tan would become a banner of the Central Province Academy, he was crippled and became Shang Zhongyong. After that, half a year ago, he was defeated by a new student and fell into an extremely dire state.
If one wanted to talk about the greatest joke in the Central Province Academy this year, it would definitely be none other than Cai Tan. It was said that the more you loved someone, the more you hated them. This was especially so for the third-year students. They were gnashing their teeth in anger toward Cai Tan.
"Why is Cai Tan here? Don't you think it's embarrassing enough? "
"If it were me, I wouldn't be convinced either!"
"This is Cai Tan? He's very handsome! "
Some of the first-year girls, seeing Cai Tan for the first time and seeing that he was actually such a handsome boy, suddenly began to worry for him.
Therefore, when girls say that they love you for what's inside, it's all a lie. If you don't have a good-looking appearance, they won't bother to spend time to understand your existence.
"Cai Tan?"
Tang Ming stood in the arena. When he saw that his opponent was Cai Tan, he was a little surprised. "Why are you here?"
"You will naturally get up from where you fell!"
Cai Tan sounded calm.
"Heh!"
Tang Ming didn't feel like talking anymore. You want to get up? Doesn't that mean he wants to defeat me? I admit that you were a genius a year ago. You were an opponent that I might not have been able to defeat even if I tried my best. But now …
"Are the two of you ready?"
Zhu Ting asked.
"There's no need to prepare!"
Tang Ming lifted his chin slightly, wearing an arrogant look on his face. The thirteenth ranker of the Battle Hall was so confident.
"Alright!"
Cai Tan nodded.
"I'll say it again. The duel should end when the victor is determined. So, the two of you, please pay your respects!"
After Zhu Ting finished speaking, he retreated.
"Tang Ming, Spirit Refinement realm, 45 acupoints opened, please guide me!"
If it was any other time, Tang Ming would greet his opponent while going into a stance. But today, there was no need for that because his opponent was too weak.
"Cai Tan, Spirit Refinement realm, 32 acupoints opened, please guide me!"
Cai Tan cupped his hands.
Hua!
When the students in the hall heard Cai Tan report his cultivation base, they burst into an uproar. Their gazes were filled with shock.
Cai Tan was a third-year student, which meant that he had already opened 32 acupoints at the age of 15. Heavens, no wonder he was once number one among the third-year students!
Hearing the exclamations in the surroundings, Ruan Yun's heart was instantly filled with sorrow and self-blame. One must know that ever since she had drugged Cai Tan, his cultivation realm had been stagnant.
If she hadn't interfered, how powerful would he be now?
If it weren't for him, he would definitely be enjoying the admiration and envy of the crowd, not the contempt and slander.
Two streams of tears flowed down Ruan Yun's cheeks. She covered her face and prayed to the heavens. "God, please let Cai Tan win. I'm willing to shorten my lifespan by ten years!"
When Tang Ming heard the exclamations below the stage, his eyelids twitched. He felt unhappy because he knew that he had become Cai Tan's foil.
Although he had opened 13 more acupoints than Cai Tan, he was also three years older. Based on this, he was actually inferior to Cai Tan!
"Calm down, Tang Ming. You've spent all your time on honing your saber techniques and don't place much importance on the increase in your cultivation realm. When you've polished your saber techniques to the grand completion stage, you'll naturally be able to level up."
Tang Ming consoled himself. He took a deep breath and grabbed the hilt of his saber with one hand. "Is this enough?"
"I'll be waiting!"
Cai Tan stretched out both his hands, one in front and one behind. His palms faced up as he went into a stance.
"Eh? Barehanded? "
Those first-year girls were incomparably shocked.
"Cai Tan's Star Seizing Hand is very powerful!"
A senior student explained, "Back then, he was known as an 'unrivaled barehanded' existence."
Upon hearing this, another round of exclamations rang out. Unrivaled barehanded? Wasn't this too exaggerated?
"That's right. It's a pity that we won't be able to see it now!"
Many senior students who had seen Cai Tan's battles before revealed regretful expressions. At his peak, Cai Tan was handsome, powerful, and his ability to attract fans was simply unrivaled.
Tang Ming moved. He lowered his entire body and exerted force in his legs. After that, he darted out like a praying mantis.
Swoosh!
Tang Ming appeared in front of Cai Tan. He channeled force into his right arm and drew his saber to fight fiercely!
Sword Drawing Slash!
"Go to hell!"
Tang Ming wanted to kill Cai Tan instantly. He wanted to let these people know that the powerful Cai Tan was already a thing of the past. This was his era.
"So fast!"
The spectators near the stage subconsciously leaned back a little. This was because Tang Ming's saber was too fast. A flash of silver light burst out as though it was going to slash their faces.
This was like watching a horror movie. When one saw a terrifying scene, they would subconsciously dodge. This was a human's instinctive reaction.
Cai Tan's expression was calm. His feet didn't move, and his right hand rapidly flicked out.
Pa!
In the next instant, the silver saber light seemed to have collided with a mountain and disappeared without a trace.
"What?"
Tang Ming was shocked. He was known as the Swift Saber, and he was very confident in his speed. However, Cai Tan's attack was actually faster than his?
"Senior Tang Ming, your saber is a little slow!"
Cai Tan grabbed Tang Ming's wrist and frowned slightly. He wasn't mocking Tang Ming, but rather, Tang Ming was easier to deal with than he had expected!
"Slow your mom!"
Tang Ming cursed in his heart. He suddenly exerted force in his right hand and broke free from Cai Tan's grasp. His saber slashed out eighteen saber shadows consecutively, enveloping Cai Tan's vital spots.
Cai Tan wasn't afraid in the face of danger. His hands flicked out continuously.
Pa, pa, pa!
Each time they collided, a saber shadow would dissipate. In an instant, Tang Ming's attack was disintegrated. Then, his chest was stabbed.
Tang Ming immediately felt suffocated. He couldn't stand steadily and staggered a step back.
"Oh no!"
Tang Ming was shocked and immediately went into a defensive stance. However, what surprised him was that Cai Tan didn't take advantage of the situation to attack. Instead, he stood on the spot and stared at his hands in a daze.
After being stunned for a moment, anger appeared on Tang Ming's face. (Damn it! He's looking down on me!)
What was humiliation?
Receiving the opponent's attack without moving a single step and then not taking the initiative to attack. Such a situation would usually only appear when experts were giving guidance to others.
"Arrogant!"
Tang Ming let out an explosive bellow. His entire person was like a gust of wind as he rushed toward Cai Tan.
Actually, he had misunderstood Cai Tan.
Cai Tan knew that his body had recovered after being treated by the living blood technique. But after all, it had been over half a year since he last fought. He was also feeling uneasy and was worried that he would fail. But now, he discovered that he was stronger than he had expected.
A sense of confidence started to grow in Cai Tan's heart!
When he inclined his head again and looked at Tang Ming, he appeared even more calm. Hence, he unleashed his ultimate move!
White Hand Seizing Stars!
Pa! Pa! Pa!
Each of Cai Tan's attacks arrived first despite being launched later, accurately hitting Tang Ming's wrist. This caused Tang Ming's saber force to be unable to move.
It was like a wave had just risen when it was slapped away by an invisible hand.
"Didn't they say that Cai Tan is crippled? Why is he so strong? "
The first-year students were shocked. How was he crippled? He was clearly extremely strong!
The higher-year students were stunned. Why did they feel that Cai Tan was even stronger than before?
Some young girls didn't think so much. They only felt that Cai Tan was extremely handsome. His movements were filled with beauty and didn't seem like he was fighting but like he was dancing.
Sun Mo wasn't surprised to see Cai Tan suppressing Tang Ming.
Tang Ming's swift blade referred to the cultivation art he cultivated in. His agility was ordinary. However, Cai Tan's Star Seizing Hand emphasized on quick attacks. In his own data, his agility was the most outstanding. When the two of them were combined, they complemented each other and multiplied the prowess of his attacks.
Naturally, just based on potential value alone, Cai Tan was also able to suppress Tang Ming.
Tang Ming's potential value was a little higher than 'high', but Cai Tan's was' extremely high '!
The two of them seemed to be about the same, but the difference between them was like heaven and earth.
In the entire Central Province Academy, there were over 10,000 students. There were 200 to 300 students with 'slightly higher' potential value. However, the number of students with 'extremely high' potential value didn't exceed 10!
"This can't go on, I can't let this continue!"
When Tang Ming sensed that he was going to lose, a sense of worry immediately appeared in his heart. At that time, not only would he have to leave the battle hall, but he would also become a stepping stone for Cai Tan's rise.
Such a situation was something he absolutely couldn't accept.
At the thought of this, Tang Ming decisively performed his ultimate move.
Actually, Tang Ming's aptitude was also very good. If it was someone else, they might still try to probe and attack. However, after exchanging over ten moves, he already knew that he wouldn't be able to win against Cai Tan if he relied on ordinary moves.
It was a pity that Cai Tan was a notch higher. He had long since been waiting for this scene. Just as Tang Ming's ultimate move was about to be completed, Cai Tan's ultimate move was unleashed first.
Delicate Cloud Manipulation, Flying Stars Conveying Hatred!
Cai Tan's right hand seemed to have barged through the obstruction of spacetime and instantly disappeared from Tang Ming's sight. Before anxiety and panic could appear on his face, an intense pain came from his chest.
Bang!
Tang Ming's ribs were broken, and he was sent flying out. He directly fell off the stage and kicked up a large amount of dust.
The entire hall instantly fell silent.
Everyone's gazes were gathered on Cai Tan. There was shock, curiosity, suspicion, and so on!
After seeing the battle situation, some people had already guessed that Cai Tan might win. However, they didn't expect him to win so quickly!
No matter what, Tang Ming was ranked # 13 in the battle hall. How could he be defeated so quickly? Was there still any justice in this world?
Zhu Ting, who was the judge at the side, was also stunned. Was there a mistake? This Shang Zhongyong actually managed to turn things around? What had happened to him in the past half a year?
Cai Tan stood at his original location and looked at his hands. After that, he turned his head and looked down at the crowd. Those shocked faces were a little comical!
(Is it so unbelievable that I won?)
Cai Tan's lips twitched as he mocked himself. He knew that this was indeed unbelievable. After that, he looked at Sun Mo who was in the crowd. All of this was given to him by his teacher!
Without him, there wouldn't be a nirvanic him.
Ding!
Favorable impression points from Cai Tan + 500. Friendly (845/1,000).
