Chu Mu drew number 53, and number 28 was already on the stage.
"So it's him. Number 28 is really lucky," the students said as soon as they saw Chu Mu get up and walk onto the stage.
Number 28, who was already standing on the stage, saw Chu Mu and immediately smiled. This smile was full of confidence.
"This guy is really lucky. He passed the first round so easily." The other nominees spoke one after another, their faces full of envy. They silently wondered why it wasn't them who faced Chu Mu.
Of course, there were some candidates who were extremely confident in their own strength who remained indifferent. To them, it didn't matter who their opponent was because they believed that their strength could crush their opponent and obtain the final victory. That was all.
The two judges looked at each other helplessly when they saw Chu Mu jump onto the stage.
They all saw Chu Mu's performance in the King of Swords Competition, so they were very impressed by Chu Mu's swordsmanship. Subconsciously, they also hoped that Chu Mu could defeat his opponents one after another like he did in the King of Swords Competition.
However, this competition was not just a confrontation of basic swordsmanship. It was only a small part of the overall strength. It was a prerequisite for practicing ancient swordsmanship.
Therefore, in their opinion, Chu Mu was bound to lose.
Speaking of which, not only did others think that Chu Mu would lose, but even Chu Mu himself did not have much confidence in defeating his opponent. After all, he could not use any swordsmanship or ancient swordsmanship. His overall strength was reduced by several levels.
Even so, Chu Mu still wanted to fight because he still had sword force, Zhen Tian force, and penetrating force.
"My luck is not bad." Number 28 stared at Chu Mu and smiled. "Why don't you just admit defeat? Don't hurt our friendship."
"Why don't you admit defeat?" Chu Mu said with a smile. The two judges were stunned. They could not help but shake their heads. This guy was really unwilling to lose.
"What? I admit defeat? Hahaha … "Number 28 was not angry. Instead, he laughed. In his opinion, Chu Mu was not his opponent at all. Naturally, he would not be angry at his words. After laughing for a while, he stopped and continued," Chu Mu, I know you. Although I did not have the chance to fight with you in the King of Swords Competition, I know that I'm not your opponent in terms of basic swordsmanship. However, don't forget that this is not a duel of basic swordsmanship. I can defeat you with one sword.... "
"You're talking too big. Take out your sword." Chu Mu said indifferently.
Even if it was Zhuge Ming, Chu Mu didn't think he could defeat him with one strike, let alone someone weaker than Zhuge Ming.
"I'll let you know with facts." Number 28 was a little angry. He quickly pulled out his sword. In an instant, a wave of light blue sword Qi rushed towards Chu Mu. It was five meters long. It was like a rolling wave. It contained strong water vapor and rushed towards Chu Mu.
Vaguely, there seemed to be the sound of water waves crashing against each other.
Chu Mu's body flickered. He used Phantom Steps. The three phantoms were destroyed by the sword Qi. Meanwhile, Chu Mu's real body appeared beside number 28. He thrust out his sword with innate sword Qi as fast as lightning.
During the King of Swords Competition, Chu Mu defeated Ye Xiaokai with a fast sword. He was known as the fastest sword. Number 28 had no time to dodge this attack.
However, his protective innate sword Qi was very powerful. Chu Mu's attack only broke through his protective innate sword Qi. Before the sword could reach him, number 28 reacted immediately. He chopped out with his sword and a huge wave rushed towards him.
The range was too wide. Chu Mu was not sure if he could take this attack head on. He used Phantom Steps again. The phantoms were all destroyed by the huge wave. Chu Mu's real body appeared on the other side of number 28 and thrust out his sword again.
Right now, Chu Mu was using his sword arts master methods as the main and his sword practitioner's innate sword aura as support to fight with number 28.
He knew that he was unable to use his intent realm and the Wind Shocking Sword Art. His other sword arts lacked the support of his intent realm and were not powerful enough. On top of that, he was using a mid-tier sword.
With all these factors combined, Chu Mu's foundation was inferior to his opponent's. Therefore, Chu Mu chose to fight in close range, using his fast sword and technique to meet his opponent. This caused his opponent to be unable to catch his figure and make the correct attack.
Chu Mu's sword was too fast. Number 28 could not keep up. However, his protective innate sword Qi was much more powerful than Chu Mu's Sky Origin Sword Qi. Therefore, Chu Mu could not break through his defense and give him a chance to fight back.
Time passed in a flash. Chu Mu had already thrust out more than twenty times. Every strike was able to break through his opponent's protective innate sword Qi.
"Damn it!" Number 28's face turned ugly.
He originally thought that he would be able to get rid of Chu Mu in one strike, but he didn't expect that not only would he not be able to do so, but he would also be repeatedly attacked by Chu Mu after he got close to him. It was hard for him to find an opportunity to counterattack. If it wasn't for his sword aura being more profound than Chu Mu's, and if it wasn't for the fact that the sword in Chu Mu's hand was only a middle rank sword, he probably would have already lost.
As for the people watching from below, they were all astonished.
"This Chu Mu, is he using basic sword techniques?"
"It looks like it."
"How is this possible? How can he suppress number 28 with basic sword arts and innate sword Qi?"
The audience felt that their views had been distorted. They could not accept it.
The two referees on the arena were even more stunned. It seemed to be different from what they had imagined.
They didn't know that Chu Mu was in a difficult situation right now. In order to prevent number 28 from catching his figure and counterattacking, as well as maintaining high speed sword strikes and searching for the opponent's flaws, Chu Mu was completely focused on abandoning everything else. Under such a state, his mental energy consumption was extremely shocking.
After all, the current battle was indeed not like a battle of pure sword arts. His opponent used innate sword Qi and sword intent, which increased the difficulty of finding his opponent's flaws.
Moreover, Chu Mu's protective sword Qi was not as strong as his opponent's, and he had not yet mastered the third level of the Sword Qi Protective Secret Technique. Once he was hit, he would definitely be injured. Therefore, he could not let his opponent hit him.
"Get out of my way!" Under Chu Mu's suppression, number twenty-eight finally exploded. Loud rumbling sounds rang out. Terrifying blue innate sword aura surged out in all directions like a tidal wave. It was incomparably vast and sharp as the sword slashed out by number twenty-eight.
Retreat, Chu Mu had no choice but to retreat. Because of this kind of attack, he had no other choice but to retreat.
Number 28 seemed to be planning to directly defeat Chu Mu with this sword strike. Therefore, his innate sword Qi erupted without holding back. Its power was extremely strong and surging, sweeping the entire arena.
Chu Mu frowned and his pupils shrank. He stared at the surging waves of blue sword Qi. It was so fine that he could even see the sword Qi's trajectory in the waves.
In an instant, Chu Mu thrust out his sword. When the sword strike containing Tian Yuan sword Qi collided with the oncoming sword Qi waves, it shook violently. At the same time, Zhen Tian's energy was activated.
Tian Yuan sword Qi and Zhen Tian's water sword Qi collided first. After all, Tian Yuan sword Qi was not as strong as Zhen Tian's and was immediately crushed. The water sword Qi also paused for a moment, allowing Zhen Tian's energy to strike.
In the shock wave, the water sword Qi was broken and a gap appeared in the perfect sword Qi waves. This gap was right in front of Chu Mu.
Chu Mu thrust out his sword again, using the same method to break the Zhen Tian's energy. In the end, the vast blue sword Qi waves bombarded the seal, creating countless ripples before disappearing. Chu Mu was completely unharmed.
In the eyes of the audience, it was as if the blue sword Qi waves had split in the middle, deliberately avoiding Chu Mu.
"What the hell, this is …" Everyone was dumbfounded.
"I don't believe that I can't defeat you." Number 28 was ruthless. He waved his sword and water sword Qi gathered on the body of the sword, causing the sword to turn blue. It was as if water waves were condensed, and the sound of waves was surging.
An extremely powerful aura also surged out of number 28's body. It was like an enormous wave surging towards Chu Mu, crushing him.
"Triple Cut of Blue Waves!"
Number 28 slashed out with his sword. The sound of crashing water was the first to ring out. Layer after layer of blue waves rushed into the sky, abruptly turning around and pouncing towards Chu Mu.
This wave was an ancient sword technique formed by No.28's water elemental sword Qi, which contained the Concept of Water. It was extremely powerful and could even shatter refined steel.
Chu Mu's eyes burst with a sharp light. He lowered his right hand and pointed his sword at the ground. Tian Yuan sword Qi constantly flowed and gathered on the body of the sword, accumulating and becoming denser.
A buzzing sound was heard, which was the result of Chu Mu compressing Tian Yuan sword Qi into the Windcutter Sword to the extreme. He waved his sword upwards, and the Tian Yuan sword Qi tore through the sky like a waterfall, slashing towards the incoming Triple Cut of Blue Waves.
With a puchi, the Tian Yuan sword Qi was directly shattered, and the Triple Cut of Blue Waves seemed to be affected. Chu Mu's sword stabbed out five times in an instant, each of which carried the power of Zhen Tian, landing on the same spot of the Triple Cut of Blue Waves.
With a puchi, the First Cut of Blue Waves was immediately crushed, and turned into a sky full of blue, like splashing water droplets, beautiful.
Because Chu Mu had attacked the weak spot of the First Cut of Blue Waves.
The Second and Third Cut of Blue Waves followed. Chu Mu was in a critical situation. He raised his powerful aura, and the Tian Yuan sword Qi moved with all his strength. The muscles of his right arm twitched, and waves of power rushed towards the Windcutter Sword.
Sword after sword stabbed out in an instant, like lightning. At that moment, even the two judges could not see clearly.
Ten swords of Zhen Tian's power hit the weak spot of the Second Cut of Blue Waves, and fifteen swords of Zhen Tian's power hit the weak spot of the Third Cut of Blue Waves, and the Third Cut of Blue Waves was destroyed.
Number 28's Triple Cut of Blue Waves, one of the moves of the Blue Waves Sword Art, had been broken! (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.)
