Liu Feiyang looked at Zhao Hai, then he waved his hand and took back his flying sword. Then he bowed to Zhao Hai and said, "This Liu has lost. Mister Zhao Hai's means are truly extraordinary. This Liu admires you. If there's time, I hope that Mister can learn from you." After he said that, his figure moved and returned to the formation.
However, Liu Feiyang's approach made the Great Elder somewhat dissatisfied. In his opinion, Liu Feiyang shouldn't have admitted defeat so quickly. He should have fought with all his might.
Moreover, listening to Liu Feiyang's words, it seems like he wanted to get close to Zhao Hai. This was something that the Great Elder couldn't accept. He didn't give Liu Feiyang any face as he turned to the Core Disciple and said, "Is there anyone else who wants to exchange pointers with Mister Zhao Hai?"
Liu Feiyang wasn't a fool. When he saw the Great Elder's expression, he knew that the Great Elder was dissatisfied with him. However, he could only smile bitterly in his heart. Although the Great Elder said that Zhao Hai was unruly, Zhao Hai still had a sense of propriety. Liu Feiyang didn't destroy Zhao Hai's artifacts. Moreover, Zhao Hai didn't use too much strength. If they were to fight with Zhao Hai at this time, then it wouldn't be justified.
However, Liu Feiyang couldn't say anything at this time. After all, the Great Elder's identity was still there. Moreover, if he were to say anything, he would only make himself look like a joke to Huang Daoran and Zhao Hai. Although Liu Feiyang was grateful to Zhao Hai, he didn't want Zhao Hai to see the Profound Clear Sect as a joke. After all, all of Liu Feiyang's skills came from the Profound Clear Sect.
However, when the Great Elder said that they would fight with Zhao Hai, these people turned silent. Although they were arrogant, they weren't fools. On the contrary, they were much smarter than ordinary people. They knew that Liu Feiyang's strength was at the peak of their strength. If even Liu Feiyang was defeated, then there was no need to talk about them. When they thought of this, nobody dared to make a move.
When the Great Elder saw this, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed. His face turned even uglier as he said, "What? No one dares? "
His words were a bit harsh. One had to know that if a cultivator lost their courage, then they would not be able to advance for the rest of their lives. This time, it was everyone's turn to look unsightly.
Just as they were about to make a move, a voice was suddenly heard from behind, "Who dares to cause trouble in the Profound Clear Sect? Let me, Zheng Guan, deal with him."
This voice wasn't very loud, but there was an indescribable wildness in it. Moreover, those words seemed to carry an aura that made people shudder.
When the people from the Profound Clear Sect heard this voice, their expressions couldn't help but loosen. Then they took the initiative to open a path. Even Liu Feiyang had a look of admiration on his face as he stepped aside.
A red figure slowly flew out from behind the crowd. This person's speed wasn't very fast, but his body exuded an astonishing aura. It was like an unsheathed sword that was pointed towards Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai also looked at this person. This was the first time he saw someone in the Profound Clear Sect who didn't wear navy blue robes. This person was wearing red robes. And with his aura as well as his name, Zhao Hai was able to determine this person's identity.
Zheng Guan, nicknamed Zheng Tu, was a Core Disciple of the Profound Clear Sect. He was one of the Ten Prodigies. Although his ranking wasn't clear, one thing was certain, he was in the top five.
Zhao Hai looked at Zheng Guan and smiled faintly. Then he cupped his fist and said, "Zhao Hai has seen Mister Zheng Guan."
Zheng Guan didn't appreciate it. He knew that his momentum was at its peak. If he saluted Zhao Hai, then his momentum would be gone. Because of this, he didn't return the salute. He continued to move towards Zhao Hai.
Zheng Guan was a scheming person. He had been here for a long time, but he had been watching from the back. He knew that Zhao Hai was very strong, so he was the last one to start. He wanted to overwhelm Zhao Hai with his momentum. Only in this way would he have a chance to win. Zheng Guan was a scheming person. He had been waiting for Zhao Hai for a long time.
Zheng Guan knew that in a life and death battle, he might not be able to kill Liu Feiyang. At most, he would be able to injure Liu Feiyang. It was impossible for him to kill Liu Feiyang.
It was also impossible for him to defeat Liu Feiyang like Zhao Hai. He wasn't strong enough to do that. Because of this, he believed that Zhao Hai's strength was higher than his. However, he had recently completed a major event. This allowed him to have a greater chance of winning against Zhao Hai.
Zheng Guan coldly snorted, then he said, "Don't waste your breath. Take this." Then he waved his hand as a yellow broadsword appeared beside him. This broadsword was Zheng Guan's famous Judge, the Wild Sand Blade.
When Zheng Guan made his debut, he was famous for the Wild Sand Blade and the Wild Sand Blade Technique. Naturally, the Wild Sand Blade wasn't his Life Source Artifact. In fact, people from Great Sects rarely chose their Life Source Artifact too quickly. This would be very detrimental to their future cultivation.
Like Zheng Guan and the others, almost all of them had been eating various kinds of pills since they were young. Because of this, their cultivation progressed very quickly. However, this also caused their foundations to be unstable. If they were to determine their life source artifact too early, then their personality would be affected by it. This would be even more disadvantageous to their cultivation.
In addition, these large sects attached great importance to their disciples' Life Source Instruments. When they wanted to refine their Life Source Instruments and what kind of Life Source Instruments they wanted to refine, they had to communicate with the sect. Unless there was a special situation, they were not allowed to refine their own Life Source Instruments in private.
It was not easy for a large sect to nurture a core disciple. Just the cost of various cultivation resources was an astronomical figure. In order to prevent these disciples from delaying their cultivation because of their Life Origin Instrument, the large sect had very strict requirements for these core disciples' Life Origin Instruments.
However, this didn't mean that the artifacts Zheng Guan used weren't good. In fact, cultivating in a Great Sect would bring a lot of benefits that Rogue Cultivators couldn't imagine.
When large sects nurtured core disciples, they would choose a cultivation method for each level up. For example, when Zheng Guan reached the Nascent Soul Stage, he chose to cultivate the Wild Sand Saber Technique, which had a very powerful attack power. When the sect knew that he had chosen the Wild Sand Saber Technique, they gave him the Wild Sand Saber!
Although the Wild Sand Blade wasn't his Life Source Artifact, it was very compatible with his Cultivation Method. When he used the Wild Sand Blade Technique with the Wild Sand Blade, his attack power would increase by a certain degree. This was a treatment that only Great Sects would have.
If it was a rogue cultivator who had finally obtained a powerful attack method, he would immediately practice it. However, it was simply impossible for him to find an instrument that was completely compatible with this cultivation method. Thus, when facing an enemy, he would not be able to display 100% of the combat effectiveness of this cultivation method. This was the difference between a rogue cultivator and a sect disciple.
For example, the first Core Disciple of the Profound Clear Sect, the sect would equip them with several artifacts. However, the sect would only equip them with a few artifacts, not too many. The sect would also give them missions to go out and try to find artifacts. If you can find a hundred, then it would be better. If you can only find one, then it would mean that you were incompetent.
In fact, this was a variable that allowed the disciples to go out and fight with others. This way, the disciples would be able to gain experience in the process of fighting.
However, because the time limit was too long, the Core Disciples of the Great Sects who went out to train were no different from going out for a stroll in the garden. The missions they took weren't dangerous, but the rewards were great. This allowed them to easily complete the missions and obtain rewards.
But this was tantamount to harming the Core Disciples. They would be able to complete the missions easily. Sometimes, they wouldn't even need to fight. This way, they wouldn't have much combat experience and wouldn't have the effect of training. Secondly, it increased their arrogance. These Core Disciples would think that they could do whatever they want with their status in the Profound Clear Sect. Because of this, the Core Disciples' combat strength would inevitably decline.
On the other hand, Zheng Guan was an anomaly in the Profound Clear Sect. He liked to kill, his combat experience was very rich, and his mind was very deep. Because of this, his combat strength could be considered high among the Core Disciples of the Profound Clear Sect.
However, it wasn't necessarily true that he had a lot of hard battles. The missions that the Profound Clear Sect gave the Core Disciples weren't too dangerous. Even if he wanted to fight hard, it would be impossible. Moreover, the name of the Profound Clear Sect was very useful. Because of this, Zheng Guan's combat experience was very rich. However, he couldn't force himself to smile.
Seeing Zheng Guan make a move, Zhao Hai naturally wouldn't be polite. He waved his hand as a hundred swords appeared in front of him. He was still using the Rainstorm Pear Sword Formation.
Seeing Zhao Hai take out the flying swords, Zheng Guan couldn't help but coldly snort. Then he waved his hand and shouted, "Yellow Sand Rolling, Chi!" Along with his voice, the Wild Sand Blade beside him slashed towards Zhao Hai. When the blade moved, it was as if ten thousand miles of yellow sand were rolling towards Zhao Hai. Its momentum was astonishing.
Zhao Hai raised his eyebrows as he loudly shouted, "Rainstorm Gale, Chi!" Following his words, the hundreds of flying swords turned into a ball of sword light. Like a storm, they went straight for Zheng Guan's saber. The two balls of sword and saber with astonishing momentum collided in the blink of an eye.
A thunderous sound was heard as the two groups of sword lights separated. Zhao Hai's expression didn't change as he calmly looked at Zheng Guan. On the other hand, Zheng Guan's face was flushed red. He looked at Zhao Hai as he laughed and said, "Good, good Zhao Hai. You really have some skill. Take my move, Wild Sand Filling the Sky, Chi!"
Zhao Hai also laughed and said, "Good, I was just about to ask for your advice. Rainstorm Blowing Flowers, Chi!" The sword formation carried an indomitable aura as it went straight towards Zheng Guan's blade.
Boom! A louder sound was heard as astral qi spread out from the center of the battle. That's right, it was astral qi. This was Zheng Guan's secret weapon, astral qi.
During this time, Zheng Guan took the opportunity to go out and train. He went to the Yellow Sand Beast Planet and condensed astral qi into his body. Moreover, he succeeded. His attack just now contained astral qi. He wanted to use astral qi to make Zhao Hai suffer a loss. However, he didn't expect that Zhao Hai's Liquid Silver Staff already had astral qi and evil qi. Now, it also had faith power. Although Zhao Hai didn't use these things to increase his attack power, it was still impossible for others to use astral qi or evil qi to attack Zhao Hai. Therefore, Zheng Guan's astral qi was directly blocked by Liquid Silver.
When the astral qi scattered, everyone felt it. The Great Elder's expression couldn't help but change. He thought that Zhao Hai was using astral qi to attack.
At this time, Zhao Hai's voice was heard, "So Mister has already condensed astral qi into his body. Good, I'm impressed. Let's have some fun." With his words, the hundred flying swords returned to his side. Zhao's face sank. Zheng Guan had used astral qi without saying a word, which angered Zhao. Astral qi attacks weren't as simple as just strengthening the attack. Once the astral qi attacks into the body, the consequences would be very serious. Zhao's face turned dark. Zheng Guan used astral qi to attack.
This time, Zhao Hai was entrusted by Feng Baiming to teach Zheng Guan and the others a lesson. Therefore, when he fought Liu Feiyang, he was merciful. He didn't use any strength at all.
However, Zheng Guan used astral qi without saying anything. This time, he used astral qi to compare notes. It was clear that he wanted to injure Zhao Hai. If Zhao Hai was an ordinary Cultivator, then he would've been defeated. This was also the reason why Zhao Hai was angry. The two weren't fighting to the death, so using this method was despicable.
Upon hearing Zhao Hai, the Great Elder's expression couldn't help but change. These Core Disciples didn't condense astral qi into their bodies. This was something that they knew. Although it was best to condense astral qi in the Foundation Establishment Stage, the Profound Clear Sect had a secret technique that allowed people to condense astral qi in the Nascent Soul Stage. Moreover, the success rate would be higher.
They were planning to find a time to lead everyone to condense astral energy into their bodies. This way, with the help of the sect elders, the success rate of condensing astral energy into their bodies would be greatly increased. Even if they failed, they would not suffer any injuries. It was much safer than condensing astral energy by themselves.
It wasn't easy to train a core disciple, and it was precisely because of this that every step had to be taken carefully. If Zheng Guan really did condense astral qi into his body, then it would mean that he had sneaked in by himself. Although Zheng Guan appeared here safe and sound, the Great Elder still wasn't happy. This was because Zheng Guan's actions were too reckless.
However, how to punish Zheng Guan was a matter for the future. Right now, the Great Elder was concerned about whether Zheng Guan could use astral qi to defeat Zhao Hai.
Zheng Guan looked at Zhao Hai with a dignified expression. He used astral qi to attack Zhao Hai. He wanted to use this opportunity to injure Zhao Hai. This way, he would have a chance to win. But now, it seems like it didn't have any effect. This made him look at Zhao Hai even more. At the same time, he had a better understanding of Zhao Hai's strength. He also understood that Zhao Hai had condensed astral qi, and this was something that he didn't want to see.
If Zhao Hai also condensed astral qi, then it meant that Zhao Hai would be even more difficult to deal with. Zheng Guan discovered that his chances of defeating Zhao Hai had dropped even lower.
