"What!" Everyone, including the two judges, was shocked. Some of them even stood up with their eyes wide open.
No. 28's eyes were wide open, and his pupils were dilated. His face was full of shock, but he could not react because Chu Mu's move was too unexpected.
Fast, fast, fast!
His left hand stabbed out, fast, accurate, steady, and ruthless. The Tianyuan Sword Qi gathered at the tip of the sword, and a cold star bloomed.
The sword instantly broke No. 28's Protective Sword Qi on his right wrist, and No. 28 seized the opportunity to mobilize his Xiantian Sword Qi to protect himself.
The Tianyuan Sword Qi was quickly consumed, and so was his Protective Sword Qi.
At this moment, the strength and purity of the Sword Qi were the key. But obviously, Chu Mu's Tianyuan Sword Qi, which was in the sixth revolution, was not as good as his water-type Sword Qi.
Number 28 had been in the Qi Transformation Realm for far longer than Chu Mu. It had already been four to five years. In such a period of time, the technique he cultivated was also a high class Profound Rank technique, and his cultivation talent was above Chu Mu's. Under all these conditions, Number 28's Innate Sword Aura was above Chu Mu's Heavenly Origin Sword Aura in both quantity and purity.
Chu Mu estimated that when he broke through the sixth revolution and entered the seventh revolution, his Sword Qi would be comparable to his opponent's in terms of purity.
Consumption, Consumption, Consumption!
In the end, the Tianyuan Sword Qi on the tip of Chu Mu's sword was completely consumed, and the subsequent replenishment could not keep up with the consumption rate. His Protective Sword Qi was also being consumed, but there was still a thin layer left, which blocked Chu Mu's sword.
"Haha, you're out of ideas." No. 28 breathed a sigh of relief and laughed. At the same time, he was about to withdraw his sword to counterattack.
"Not necessarily." Chu Mu sneered. His left hand trembled slightly, and a strange wave of power reached the tip of his sword. A strange force shot out in an instant.
"Ah …" Number 28 screamed in pain. He felt as if his right wrist had been pierced by a sword, and the pain was so intense that it penetrated his bones. He couldn't hold onto his high-grade sword anymore, and it fell to the ground. He held his wrist with his left hand and screamed in pain.
The sword pierced through!
No. 28's wailing stopped after a while. His face was pale. He removed his left hand and stared at his right wrist. There was no wound on it, but there was a red swelling the size of a copper coin. The pain was so deep that it felt like he had been stabbed by a sword.
Chu Mu had once again used the technique of exerting force. However, it was not the Zhen Tian Force, but the Penetrating Force.
After more than 20 days of meditation and cultivation, Chu Mu, who was a genius and had the foundation of the Zhen Tian Style, had basically mastered the penetrating force that others would need a year or even longer to master.
The penetrating force, as the name implied, could penetrate some defenses. According to the book of penetrating force, after practicing it to the level of Dacheng, it could even penetrate a meter-thick boulder.
Chu Mu had only mastered the basic level of penetrating force. If he had mastered it, No. 28's right wrist wouldn't be red and swollen at all. It would be fine on the surface, but the internal injuries would be more obvious, and his entire right wrist would be crippled.
"What did you do to me?" No. 28's face was extremely ugly, and his eyes were almost spitting fire.
"Heal it well, and you'll be fine in a few days," Chu Mu said lightly.
"You …" No. 28 almost exploded in anger. He thought he would win, but in the end, not only did he not win, but he also let his opponent take the limelight. As a result, he was injured. Now, when he used a little force, he felt pain all over his right wrist. He couldn't even hold his sword.
"No. 53 wins," the referee announced. He glanced at Chu Mu, and his expression was indeed very surprised and shocked.
"Amazing! Did you see Chu Mu's sword move? I didn't know swordsmanship could be used like this."
"My horizons have been broadened. He used his right hand as a feint to lure his opponent to block, but then suddenly retracted it and switched to his left hand. So cool!"
"During the King of Swordsmanship competition, Chu Mu defeated Fu She. Fu She asked him if he knew how to use dual swords. At that time, Chu Mu said that Fu She wasn't qualified for him to use dual swords. At first, I thought Chu Mu was bragging, but now that I see his left hand's swordsmanship is so pure, I'm sure he knows how to use dual swords."
The students were in an uproar as they discussed.
After Chu Mu returned to his seat, he closed his eyes and rested. His whole body needed to rest. Being unable to use his mental state and ancient swordsmanship was indeed a big hindrance.
Fortunately, his outstanding performance in other aspects allowed him to defeat his opponent in the end. However, he was afraid that he would not be able to participate in the second battle for a while. He could only hope that the following battles would drag on for a longer time, giving him more time to recover.
Match after match passed, and Chu Mu opened his eyes. While using the Heaven Shaking Flow breathing technique to speed up his body's recovery, he also watched the other nominees' matches. Knowing one's enemy, one's chances of victory were slim.
There were a total of forty battles in the first round. Chu Mu was in the twenty-eighth battle, and there were still twelve battles after that. Among these twelve battles, apart from the four that defeated their opponents very quickly, the other eight battles took at least fifteen minutes to defeat their opponents.
Because of this, Chu Mu had recovered to a certain extent. However, it was still not enough for him to fully recover.
After the first round ended, the referee announced a fifteen minute break. Fifteen minutes later, the lots were drawn again.
This time, Chu Mu drew number six. In other words, his battle was scheduled for the sixth battle of the second round. This was not good news for Chu Mu because he was sure that by that time, his spirit and other aspects would not be able to recover to their peak.
However, Chu Mu was not afraid!
"The first battle of the second round: number one versus number forty. Begin."
With the referee's announcement, the second round finally began.
In the first round, no one would use their full strength. Some were defeated before they could use their full strength. Therefore, everyone was holding back. At least, no one used their sword aura.
To be able to enter the second round, their strength was definitely not ordinary. The battles were more exciting and intense.
Soon, the fifth battle was over.
"The sixth battle of the second round: number six versus number thirty-five."
"It's Chu Mu's turn again. Can he defeat his opponent again this time?" The students seemed to be excited all of a sudden.
Chu Mu's face was calm as he jumped onto the Sword Fighting Stage and faced the thirty-fifth candidate.
Number thirty-five was a woman in her twenties. Although she was not as beautiful as Han Ruoxue, she was not bad. Perhaps it was because of her cultivation, her figure was very good. Especially the pair of beautiful slender legs under the robe, it was easy for people to daydream.
"I didn't expect my opponent to be you." Number thirty-five pursed her lips and smiled. "In the Swordsmanship Is King Competition, your swordsmanship is indeed unfathomable. Watching your battle is also very exciting. In the first round, I wonder why you didn't use your intent realm or ancient sword technique?"
"That's none of your business," Chu Mu replied indifferently.
Number thirty-five was slightly stunned and smiled again. "Then, in this battle, you also don't plan to use your intent realm or ancient sword technique?"
"You'll know when I use my sword." Chu Mu's reply was still indifferent. Instantly, number 35 was depressed. This fellow was a bit stubborn.
"I advise you to use your full strength. Otherwise, it will be the same as the last battle. You are not my opponent." Number thirty-five seemed to be very kind as she reminded.
Chu Mu did not answer, nor did he take the initiative to use his sword. Instead, he was thinking about number thirty-five's last battle. Although she might not have used her full strength in the last battle, Chu Mu had seen her style and characteristics.
Her sword was light and graceful!
Number thirty-five's specialty was her lightness. What she comprehended was the intent realm of wind. The ancient sword technique she cultivated was the Returning Wind Swordsmanship. Her comprehension of the intent realm of wind was about fifty percent. She seemed to be good at close combat.
Number thirty-five was the first to use her sword. Her first sword was not sword qi, but a movement technique. In an instant, she was not only fast but also light as she appeared in front of Chu Mu. Her sword brought a gust of wind that blew back and forth with a strange force.
Although she did not use the Returning Wind Swordsmanship, she had completely comprehended the principles of the Returning Wind Swordsmanship and applied it to ordinary sword techniques. It created a force that rushed back and forth, creating a kind of suction force.
Chu Mu's eyesight was still there. He saw through the situation with a single glance. He unsheathed his Windcutter Sword and sliced out. The Returning Wind Swordsmanship disappeared as if it was cutting a thread. Number thirty-five's sword attack was broken.
Number thirty-five was slightly surprised. She quickly changed her attack. Chu Mu only felt that the sky was filled with sword shadows that came from all directions. He knew that number thirty-five was using her speed to continuously attack.
Closing his eyes, Chu Mu's ears trembled slightly. His Listening Sword, which was close to perfection, allowed him to control the overall situation.
The Windcutter Sword condensed Heaven's Origin Sword Qi. It pierced, chopped, chopped, sliced, and flicked. Strike after strike, it broke through number thirty-five's sword shadows.
Ding, ding, ding sounds kept ringing. Sparks began to fly. It was dazzling.
Number thirty-five was a little depressed. She was good at close combat. Her Returning Wind Swordsmanship was also mainly for close combat. Coupled with her light footwork and super fast body movements, she was like a tiger that had grown wings.
She was helpless. She met Chu Mu, the guy who took the crown of the King of Swordsmanship from Huangfu Cangyue, who was invincible in the Inner Mansion.
"He's so scary even with his eyes closed." Number thirty-five muttered and gritted her teeth. "I don't believe that I can't defeat you with my strength."
In an instant, number thirty-five performed the Returning Wind Swordsmanship.
Returning Wind and Drizzle!
The Returning Wind Swordsmanship appeared. Each sword attack contained the essence of wind. It was like a silent drizzle that moistened everything. It was all-pervasive and impossible to guard against. In total, she stabbed ninety-nine times in one breath.
It was too dense and too fast. Even if Chu Mu's Listening Sword could control the overall situation, it was difficult for the Windcutter Sword to keep up. It could not block this move because it came from all directions.
The sharp golden sword suddenly appeared in his left hand. With two swords in hand, the world was mine!
A wave of densely packed clanking sounds rang out again. Each of Return Wind Drizzle's attacks were blocked by Chu Mu's two swords, returning without any success … …. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.
