"Eleventh Round, Battle 13: Astral-6's Xiang Tianhe VS Astral-9's Tang Shaobo."
"Great, another exciting match."
"Please." Xiang Tianhe was refined and courteous. Naturally, he had a magnanimous air about him. He gave others the impression that he was a gentleman.
"Please." Tang Shaobo also saluted.
Both sides drew their swords.
As soon as he drew his sword, the originally polite Xiang Tianhe's aura changed. It was as if the waters of a long river were gushing forth endlessly, directly suppressing Tang Shaobo.
The Heavenly River Swordsmanship was also like the endless water of a long river, flowing endlessly like the Heavenly River.
Although Tang Shaobo's swordsmanship was very strong, he was immediately suppressed by Xiang Tianhe, who was even stronger and was displaying his own style.
Tang Shaobo's sword was like a piece of wood that was being battered by a long river. It bobbed up and down involuntarily, completely passive.
The audience held their breaths. They could feel that the sword in Xiang Tianhe's hand seemed to have disappeared, replaced by an endless river.
Even though they were tens or hundreds of meters away from each other, they still felt a sense of suffocation.
"Xiang Tianhe's Winding River Sword is even stronger than it was three years ago," Dongfang Gu said with a smile.
Just as Zhuge Ming had said, Xiang Tianhe's attacks were continuous and endless. His continuous attacks were completely different from Lei Hao's torrential downpour.
Under Xiang Tianhe's Winding River Sword, Tang Shaobo was finally completely suppressed and defeated.
"Eleventh Round, Battle 14: Astral-4's Dongfang Gu VS Astral-7's Ye Xiaokai."
Dongfang Gu was known as the Strange Sword. His twin swords were impossible to defend against, and although Ye Xiaokai did not have a public title, his sword was extremely fast.
Dongfang Gu held two swords in his hands, one long and one short. The short sword was held horizontally in front of his chest while the long sword was held behind his back. His eyes were sharp as he stared closely at Ye Xiaokai.
Ye Xiaokai's first move was a fast sword. It was pure speed, a speed that ignored all other factors. It was so fast that no one could keep up with it.
"What a fast sword!" Fang Lengyan sucked in a cold breath. He had suffered a huge blow.
In Ye Xiaokai's previous matches, his opponents had not been strong enough, so he had not used his full strength. However, Dongfang Gu's current ranking was far above his, so he did not have the right to fight without using his full strength.
Dongfang Gu blocked the attack with his short sword and flicked out his long sword with a reverse grip.
With the mother and son swords in hand, one was strange while the other was straight, one was attacking while the other was defending. Ye Xiaokai's quick sword was immediately restrained, making it difficult for him to perform. In the end, he was defeated.
The swordsmanship of these students had different styles and characteristics, and they displayed more of them. It was an eye-opener for the students, and they exclaimed in delight.
As the matches went on one by one, the eleventh round came to an end.
After a night of rest, the twelfth round began.
After the first eleven rounds of competition, up until now, there weren't many students who were still able to maintain their winning streak. There were only a dozen or so. Last year's top ten took up ten spots, leaving only a handful of five or six people. Of these, Lei Hao and Chu Mu took up two spots.
In the twelfth round, Lei Hao's opponent was the eightieth place from the previous competition.
In the end, Lei Hao didn't disappoint. He defeated his opponent and won countless cheers and applause.
"Lei Hao won again. Just when will he be defeated?" Someone lamented.
"Round 12, seventh match: Astral-9's Zhu Tianzhao versus Astral-9's Chu Mu," the referee announced.
"Zhu Tianzhao versus Chu Mu?"
"Zhu Tianzhao was ranked fifty-second in the previous competition. Why did the referee arrange such a strong opponent for Chu Mu? Shouldn't he have arranged someone in the eightieth or seventies?"
"I've finally gotten my chance." Zhu Tianzhao sneered. He stood up, glanced at Chu Mu, and then quickly walked towards the arena.
"Chu Mu, defeat him." Liang Haishan was now filled with confidence in Chu Mu, to the point of being a little blinded. This was because Chu Mu had been winning streaks all this time. No matter what kind of opponent he faced in the first eleven rounds, he would always win.
Moreover, it didn't seem like Zhu Tianzhao's victories were very satisfying. In fact, Liang Haishan even felt that Zhu Tianzhao's victories were understated. This caused Liang Haishan to blindly accept Zhu Tianzhao as his opponent.
On the other hand, Zhuge Ming and the others weren't as optimistic. Although Chu Mu's performance had exceeded their expectations, Zhu Tianzhao was still much stronger than those who had been defeated by Chu Mu.
"Feel unlucky for yourself." Zhu Tianzhao stood on the arena. His gaze turned cold. "From the moment you offended our sect, you were already destined to have a tragic ending. This time, it's just the beginning."
"I heard that you're a person who loves face. If this time, not only are you unable to defeat me and teach me a lesson, but you're also defeated by me, I wonder if you still have the face to appear in front of me?" Chu Mu smiled faintly.
"Defeat me? Do you think you're invincible just because you have the title of Supernova and defeated a few trash? " Zhu Tianzhao snorted. He didn't get angry. Instead, he revealed a disdainful smile. This was because he had already determined that Chu Mu wasn't his opponent, although it was somewhat beyond his expectations.
He didn't say anything else. His sword was the best explanation.
Zhu Tianzhao's basic swordsmanship was very solid. When he attacked, Sword Light directly condensed on the sword. This Sword Light wasn't dazzling, but it was somewhat resplendent. This meant that Zhu Tianzhao's basic swordsmanship had reached the level of Light Condensation.
Moreover, Zhu Tianzhao's footsteps were flexible and his movement speed was extremely fast. Coupled with his solid swordsmanship, he exerted a powerful force.
"Nothing special. It's just a solid foundation." Chu Mu made a judgment of Zhu Tianzhao's swordsmanship after exchanging a few moves with Zhu Tianzhao.
A solid foundation didn't just represent the swordsmanship. When practicing swordsmanship, it wasn't just about the sword in the hand. It was also about the eyes, body, and other things. Only when they were combined and condensed into one, could the strongest power be exerted.
Chu Mu's swordsmanship was also very solid. There was nothing special about it.
The fight between the two people was very intense. Everyone couldn't take their eyes off it.
After dozens of moves, Zhu Tianzhao saw that not only did he not defeat Chu Mu, but he also didn't have any signs of gaining the upper hand. He couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"This Chu Mu can actually beat Zhu Tianzhao, who was ranked 52nd in the last tournament. Does he plan to defeat Zhu Tianzhao?"
"A supernova. I don't know if this supernova can continue to surpass?"
Many students became nervous. They were nervous for no reason. They didn't know why they were so nervous.
The referees on the judging panel were even more nervous.
Due to Chu Mu's unfathomable characteristics, every time they arranged an opponent for Chu Mu, they made the decision after careful consideration and comparison.
Therefore, every time they arranged an opponent for Chu Mu, it was an uncertain test.
Although Chu Mu defeated his opponent every time and made them excited, the opponent this time, Zhu Tianzhao, was much stronger than the previous opponents.
They were very nervous and had a deep expectation. Even the head judge, who always had his eyes closed, opened his eyes to watch the fight between Chu Mu and Zhu Tianzhao.
Seeing that Chu Mu and Zhu Tianzhao didn't show any signs of losing after exchanging dozens of moves, the head judge gradually relaxed. He hoped that Chu Mu could defeat Zhu Tianzhao again and win again.
Zhu Tianzhao's face became colder and colder. The speed of his sword became faster. The light on his sword became more condensed and its power increased.
He attacked with 120% of his strength!
The light on Chu Mu's sword was also condensed and bright. It was comparable to Zhu Tianzhao's.
In fact, Chu Mu could defeat Zhu Tianzhao quickly. He could even use the Dark Light Sword and defeat Zhu Tianzhao with only one move.
However, he suppressed the power of his swordsmanship to the same level as Zhu Tianzhao, or even a little lower. He fought with Zhu Tianzhao purely with his swordsmanship skills.
In the previous battles, Chu Mu's opponents had ordinary swordsmanship skills. Now, putting aside all other subjective factors, Chu Mu had to admit that Zhu Tianzhao's swordsmanship was really good.
Whether it was power, skill, application, or other aspects, they were all quite outstanding. It was relatively balanced. It aroused Chu Mu's interest to compete with Zhu Tianzhao, so that he could discover the shortcomings of his swordsmanship and improve and improve.
After dozens of moves, Chu Mu basically understood Zhu Tianzhao's swordsmanship thoroughly. He also knew that although Zhu Tianzhao's swordsmanship was good, it was still not enough for him to discover his shortcomings.
He stabbed out with his sword and rotated his wrist at high speed. The traction force suddenly pushed Zhu Tianzhao's sword away and the sword went straight to his face.
Zhu Tianzhao hurriedly retreated, but Chu Mu's sword suddenly accelerated. It turned into a flash of cold light and fell on Zhu Tianzhao's throat.
"You lost." Chu Mu faintly smiled and said.
Zhu Tianzhao was wide open. He stared at Chu Mu. His expression changed in surprise and doubt. He didn't know why he was suddenly defeated in the end when he was evenly matched with Chu Mu at the beginning.
"Chu Mu wins." The voice of the referee was more excited this time.
"He won again?"
"It's incredible. Even Zhu Tianzhao is not Chu Mu's opponent. When will Chu Mu be defeated?"
There was no malice in his words. It was just a sigh.
"I knew that Chu Mu would win. A supernova will not lose." Liang Haishan was very excited. His blind confidence had almost made him a devout believer of Chu Mu.
"How is that possible?" Qi Shaofan, Fang Lengyan, and Huangfu Fu were all in disbelief because they were not sure that they could defeat Zhu Tianzhao.
"Not bad. This newcomer has piqued my interest." A smile appeared on Wan Pan's face.
Huangfu Cangyue still ignored him. For him, Zhu Tianzhao was just a target that he could defeat with one sword.
Even if it was someone ranked in the top ten, unless they were ranked in the top three, he wouldn't even give them a second glance.
"His swordsmanship is good. I'm looking forward to fighting with him." Fu She licked his lips and said in a low voice. His eyes were shining.
All the referees looked at the chief referee and admired him even more.
This was because this time, the arrangement of Chu Mu and Zhu Tianzhao's fight was decided by the head judge after much discussion. Reality once again proved that the head judge's foresight was unparalleled.
The head judge had a calm look on his face, but he was the only one who knew what he was thinking. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
