The million sword cultivators on the viewing platform looked as if they had been slashed by the full moon sword light. Everyone's faces were lifeless and their eyes were blank.
Sword cultivator duels were very fast, often ending in a few rounds.
However, the battle just now had been too fast.
Yuling's Purple Flame Sun Sword was a very famous sword art in the sect. This sword art gave up on the balance of Yin and Yang and focused on the path of violent and fierce swords.
Yuling was famous for her swift and fierce sword control.
That full moon sword light seemed far less powerful than the Purple Flame Sun Sword. No one expected Yuling to lose just like that.
Mo Zi, the Hall Master of the Rites Sword Hall, was also shocked by this sword. Although she was a Primordial Spirit expert, she couldn't see through the profundities of this sword.
If she had been on the battlefield, the result would have been the same.
The Heaven Earth Sword Sect's upper echelons were also shocked by Gao Zhengyang's sword.
Sword cultivators weren't like other cultivators who had all kinds of spells and divine abilities. There could be many reasons for winning or losing.
In the battle just now, Gao Zhengyang had only temporarily borrowed the Spirit Butterfly Sword. This sword was not bad, but it was far inferior to Yuling's Purple Sun Sword.
Yuling being killed in one sword proved that the difference in sword arts between the two was too great. Because the difference was too great, Yuling couldn't use it as a yardstick to measure Gao Zhengyang's sword art.
Yu Li was also extremely shocked. She had actually overestimated Gao Zhengyang and felt that Yuling might not be his match. But to kill him with a single sword strike was very shocking.
She looked at her master Ming Yutian. "Master, did he use some other method?"
Ming Yutian lightly tapped the armrest of his chair and said with a face full of praise, "Good sword art, good sword art."
She turned to look at Yu Li. "What do you think?"
Yu Li hesitated and said, "For Master to praise him like this, of course his sword art is powerful. But he's just a Nascent Soul cultivator and used my Spirit Butterfly Sword. How could there be such a huge difference? This disciple is puzzled. "
"Yuling's sword art is too crude. The sword light accumulated such a strong momentum, but it actually wasted a lot of energy. "
Ming Yutian said indifferently, "This involves the most subtle understanding and control of sword arts. Gao Zhengyang is very powerful on this floor. "
Yu Li said with a bit of worry, "Among Yuanying experts, I'm afraid no one can win against Gao Zhengyang."
"It's just a competition of skills. There will always be winners and losers."
Ming Yutian said, "It's good to let these people lose, so they don't always think they're so powerful."
Most of the disciples of the Duality Sword Sect would not leave the territory governed by the Duality Sword Sect. In this region, naturally, no one could defeat them.
As time passed, the middle and lower echelons of the sect would develop an illusion that the Yin-Yang Sword Sect was invincible.
This was the knowledge limited by one's experience, and one's level determined one's vision.
Fortunately, the upper echelons were still very rational. Only after experiencing the vastness of the world would they understand reverence.
Yu Li found it hard to understand Ming Yutian's thoughts. She felt that in front of millions of disciples, they should flaunt their sect's martial arts so that the disciples would be more convinced.
This would strengthen the cohesion of the disciples and make the sect more united.
Yu Li hesitated before saying, "Master, this disciple is incompetent, I can't think of anyone to send."
In her view, there was no Nascent Soul cultivator in the sect who could kill Yu Ling with a single sword strike. According to this standard, there was no Nascent Soul cultivator who could be Gao Zhengyang's opponent.
But she couldn't easily send out Nascent Soul cultivators.
Ming Yutian didn't care about Yu Li's concerns, she raised her voice and said, "Who wants to fight for the sect?"
The sect master personally spoke, breaking the awkward silence on the Sword Testing Peak.
Immediately, seven or eight Nascent Soul cultivators stood up. "Sect master, I am willing to fight!"
"Sect master, I am willing to fight."
Ming Yutian nodded with satisfaction. The most important thing for a sword cultivator was to have drive. If they couldn't see Gao Zhengyang's superb swordsmanship, they wouldn't dare to go on stage.
She said to Gao Zhengyang, "We won't bully you, you can choose your own opponent."
Gao Zhengyang smiled. "Sect master is very polite, I also won't bully you. Since everyone is interested in competing, then please come at me together."
As soon as he said this, the audience erupted.
The disciples of the Heaven and Earth Sword Sect were all women, and a million excited women were even noisier than a million excited men.
The noise on the Sword-Testing Stage almost flipped it over.
"Quiet."
Ming Yutian was a little displeased. These disciples were becoming more and more impudent. She was still there, but they were already shouting. What was this?
Ming Yutian shouted in a low voice, but it suppressed all the noise.
The million excited sword cultivators felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over them, and they felt cold from the inside out. Even their boiling emotions also calmed down.
"Since others have said so, you don't have to be modest."
Ming Yutian said to the few Nascent Soul sword cultivators, "Go, do your best to fight. Regardless of victory or defeat, you must have a clear conscience for your swords and hearts!"
The few Nascent Soul sword cultivators were a little reluctant. They all had extremely high statuses in the sect. They didn't want to gang up on one person in front of a million disciples.
But since the sect master had spoken, they didn't dare to disobey. However, everyone was determined in their hearts. No matter what, they had to win the competition.
With so many people fighting against one person, it would be too embarrassing if they lost.
All the Nascent Soul cultivators entered the arena. There were a total of nine Nascent Soul cultivators. A few of them were famous sword cultivators in the sect.
These sword cultivators were very experienced. Since they had entered the arena, they no longer pretended to be polite or put on airs.
The nine Nascent Soul cultivators stood in a half-moon formation. Although they didn't directly form a formation, they had already stood in position according to the Yin Yang Sword Formation. As long as their sword intents were connected, they could instantly form a formation.
The low-level disciples didn't have the knowledge and didn't see that the nine Nascent Soul cultivators had already formed a formation. But the upper echelons of the Heaven and Earth Sword Sect could see it clearly.
Some people praised happily, while others didn't.
Mo Zi, the master of the Sword Rite Hall, was the one who praised happily. She was an experienced person. Although she was in charge of welcoming guests, she advocated hard work.
The Nascent Soul cultivators had already shed all pretense of cordiality, so what were they waiting for?
The only thing they could do now was to completely win the competition in order to slap Gao Zhengyang in the face. If the nine of them fought together and lost, they would lose all face.
Mo Zi's disciple, Yu He, had some insight. She said in shock, "Isn't it too exaggerated to set up a sword formation?"
Mo Zi's face darkened. "There is only victory and defeat in a battle, there is no etiquette, and there is no honor or disgrace."
Yu He nodded. She understood the meaning of the words but didn't agree.
Mo Zi also knew what Yu He was thinking, but people were like this. They would always make all kinds of stupid mistakes. By the time they understood, they would be old.
In comparison, Yu Li was much more mature and steady. She did have the bearing of a leader of a sect.
Yu Li wasn't as steady as Mo Zi thought. She was very nervous, but she controlled her emotions well.
She couldn't help but ask Master, "Master, can we win?"
Ming Yutian looked with amusement at Yu Li. "What do you think?"
Yu Li shook her head. "It's hard to say."
Even though they had nine Nascent Soul cultivators on their side, for some reason, Yu Li felt that they were at a complete disadvantage.
Ming Yutian commented, "These Nascent Soul cultivators are a bit inflexible. They already set up the sword formation, and they even pretend to wait for the other side to act. It's completely unnecessary. "
"There are too many disciples present, so it's not good for them to be too direct."
Yu Li understood everyone's actions and didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it.
Ming Yutian shook his head in disapproval. "They don't know the strength of the enemy, but they still have the mood to put on a show. They aren't sincere in their hearts, and they aren't sincere in their swords. A bunch of trash. "
Ming Yutian didn't look at the level of cultivation, but at the level of the individual. At this time, these Nascent Soul cultivators were still thinking about their own honor and disgrace, but they forgot to respect the enemy and the enemy's sword. This was very ridiculous.
"As long as the sword energy is activated, it can form a formation. It's not …"
Before Yu Li finished speaking, she saw Gao Zhengyang on the Sword Testing Platform cupping his hands and saying, "I admit it."
As soon as he said this, a perfect and flawless sword light appeared like a bright moon.
It was unknown where this bright moon came from, and it was unknown where it was going. The sword light shone in all directions, seemingly boundless.
Yu Li, who was sitting on the viewing platform, couldn't help but feel a chill when she saw the bright moon sword light again. Her eyes and heart were filled with the endless sword light.
"It's over, we lost again …"
Yu Li couldn't see the state of the Nascent Soul cultivators, but just by looking at the sword light, she knew that they couldn't resist this sword.
Sure enough, when the sword light dissipated, the nine Nascent Soul cultivators were already outside the Sword Testing Platform. The nine Nascent Soul cultivators all looked ashamed.
The leading Nascent Soul cultivator bowed deeply to Ming Yutian. "We were careless and negligent, bringing shame to the sect. Sect Master, please punish us."
"Forget it, forming the formation is also the result."
Ming Yutian indifferently flicked his sleeve and said, "This person's Sword Dao is extremely high, it's not his fault. You can leave."
The nine Nascent Soul cultivators hurriedly bowed and left.
The one million sword cultivators present were all silent. No one knew how to face this situation.
Nine Nascent Soul cultivators were killed in a single exchange. What kind of sword technique was this? What kind of divine ability was this?
For the one million sword cultivators, this kind of power was already beyond their understanding.
Even Yu Li couldn't understand it. She asked Ming Yutian, "Master, what kind of sword technique is this?"
Ming Yutian said helplessly, "The world's sword techniques are as vast as the ocean, how would I know what kind of sword technique this is? However, I see that this sword is like the full moon in the sky, shining brightly for all eternity. It uses the bright moon as its sword intent, it's extremely profound. "
Ming Yutian said, "He said it's the Bright Moon Sword Master's inheritance, that should be correct."
"My sect also has the Spirit Moon Sword Art, why is it completely different?"
Yu Li didn't understand. Since they both had the same inheritance, why was there such a big difference in sword techniques?
The Dual Rites Sword Sect had all kinds of sword techniques, but these sword techniques were all different. They were just collected by the Dual Rites Sword Sect and eventually became their own inheritance.
As far as sword techniques were concerned, they were definitely of the same origin from low to high.
However, the sword technique Gao Zhengyang used was completely different from the Spirit Moon Sword Art.
The Spirit Moon Sword Art was actually a very high level sword technique, and it was also one of the foundation sword techniques for cultivating the Dual Rites Sword Art.
Yu Li had cultivated the Spirit Moon Sword Art before, so she had a deep understanding of it. When she looked at Gao Zhengyang's sword technique again, she couldn't find any similarities between it and the Spirit Moon Sword Art.
Ming Yutian couldn't help but sigh. "This person's attainments in the Sword Dao are not inferior to mine."
"Huh?" Yu Li almost suspected that she had heard wrong. Gao Zhengyang was just a Nascent Soul cultivator, so no matter how profound his sword technique was, how could he compare to Ming Yutian?
"His cultivation level isn't high, but his realm is high."
Ming Yutian was much more powerful than Yu Li, so she didn't dare to conclude that Gao Zhengyang had used the first sword technique. However, when Gao Zhengyang used the second sword technique, he couldn't hide it from her eyes.
The nine Nascent Soul cultivators gathered their power in a formation, waiting for the sword energy to move. This was one of the Dual Rites Sword Sect's killing moves.
Gao Zhengyang was just a Nascent Soul cultivator, so how could he break the formation with one sword technique?
From Ming Yutian's point of view, it was very simple. It was nothing more than a gap that could not be opened. The sword formation was accumulating power without being released, so there would be all kinds of gaps when it was operating.
However, these gaps were extremely small, and it was difficult for the enemy to grasp them.
However, Gao Zhengyang was different. The Spirit Butterfly Sword transformed into the Bright Moon Sword Intent, frightening everyone's souls and breaking their sword heart and sword intent. The flying sword was like moonlight, entering through the gaps and killing everyone was as easy as flipping a palm.
Ming Yutian had to admit that this kind of sword technique had entered the Dao and was not inferior to hers. In fact, it was even more profound.
Of course, Gao Zhengyang's level of power was still there. No matter how profound his sword technique was, he wouldn't be able to play many tricks against her.
Ming Yutian wasn't interested in personally participating. So what if she won against Gao Zhengyang? If she won, it would be a disgrace.
Ming Yutian raised her voice and said, "Fellow Daoist Gao's sword technique has entered the Dao, it can be said to be marvelous. I admire you. In today's sword competition, my sect witnessed fellow Daoist's divine skill. For all sword cultivators, this is an extremely valuable experience. "
She stood up and said to all the cultivators in the sect, "Remember, we are sword cultivators. Fellow Daoist Gao has shown us the Dao of sword cultivators, this is the Dao that we diligently seek … "
Ming Yutian was a dignified Divine Sovereign, she naturally had her own breadth of mind. Although it was very humiliating for the sect to lose consecutively, she used this opportunity to teach everyone a lesson.
Her words were driven by the might of a Divine Sovereign and would be deeply planted in the hearts of all cultivators, becoming a Sword Dao seed. Once this seed took root and germinated, who knew how many Sword Dao experts would grow up.
Among the cultivators present, only experts like Gao Zhengyang could see through Ming Yutian's divine ability. He also had to nod his head. This thirteenth rank wasn't for nothing, she was much stronger than that stupid big toad.
Ming Yutian flew in front of Gao Zhengyang and said firmly, "Fellow Daoist Gao, our Heaven Earth Sword Sect has lost this sword competition …"
Ming Yutian could calmly admit defeat, but not many of the Heaven Earth Sword Sect disciples present could.
At this moment, countless people had tears streaming down their cheeks, swearing in their hearts that they would definitely succeed in refining their swords and defeat Gao Zhengyang!
