Zhong Muchen had comprehended four kinds of profundities, and all of them had been refined to the middle stage of the Eighth Revolution. As for his opponent, he had comprehended five kinds of profundities, and all of them had been refined to the late stage of the Eighth Revolution.
Therefore, he had reason to believe that under the condition that Zhong Muchen did not use a grade four sword skill and only used a grade three sword skill or below, he could definitely defeat Zhong Muchen.
Zhong Muchen had a relaxed expression on his face, as if he didn't feel the slightest burden.
Soon, you won't be able to smile anymore, his opponent thought to himself.
Zhong Muchen's expression didn't change as he thought to himself, 'In terms of sword intent, profundities, and cultivation talent, I'm indeed inferior to you. However, I can comprehend a grade four sword skill in the same amount of time, but you can't. My comprehension ability is higher than yours, and my mastery of grade three sword skills is also higher than yours. It's enough to make up for the difference in strength.'
He attacked with his sword.
As soon as he attacked, Chu Mu could tell that Zhong Muchen's mastery of grade three sword skills was higher than his opponent's.
That's right. After fighting with Chu Mu for half a year, Zhong Muchen had been constantly perfecting his grade four sword skills.
The difficulty of controlling a grade four sword skill was far greater than a grade three sword skill. Since he could perfect a grade four sword skill to a near-perfect level, it wouldn't be difficult for him to master a grade three sword skill.
The facts proved that Zhong Muchen's strength was still tyrannical even without using a grade four sword skill. He wasn't someone that any random person could contend against.
Zhong Muchen's opponent's expression turned gloomy. He was too ashamed. Zhong Muchen had defeated him without using a grade four sword skill. He simply didn't have the face to continue staying here.
As for the Flat Sky Academy's disciples around the Hundred Battles Platform, their mouths were wide open in disbelief.
"Oh? What a rare guest. Is this the first time someone from the Soaring Sky Academy has come to our Flat Sky Academy?" At this moment, a mocking voice rang out. "Nie Xing Kong, even a loser like you has come."
Nie Xing Kong's expression changed when he heard this. However, it soon returned to normal and a cold smile appeared on his face.
The person who had arrived was Cao Qingfeng, and Tao Shixiong was accompanying him. As for the head disciple of the Flat Sky Academy, Xiao Ling, it seemed like he hadn't appeared yet.
"Zhong Muchen, your strength is indeed slightly stronger than before. However, you're far too naive if you think that you can rely on this to challenge our Fair Sky Academy." Tao Shixiong looked at Zhong Muchen on the Battle Platform and sneered. Zhong Muchen had been defeated by his sword many times. He was qualified to say such words to someone who had been defeated by his sword.
The news of Chu Mu defeating Zhong Muchen and becoming the chief disciple of the Sky Soaring Academy had been sealed by the disciples of the Sky Soaring Academy. Therefore, other than the disciples of the Sky Soaring Academy, no one else knew about it. They all thought that Zhong Muchen was the chief disciple of the Sky Soaring Academy, the strongest person.
This was because Zhong Muchen had been defeated by Tao Shixiong many times. Although he didn't understand why the Soaring Sky Academy's disciples, who had always been bullied, dared to challenge the Hundred Battles Tower of the Flat Sky Academy, since Zhong Muchen was the strongest, there was no need for Xiao Ling to make a move. Tao Shixiong was more than enough to deal with any situation.
Tao Shixiong also thought so. Indeed, Zhong Muchen's talent wasn't bad. During this period of time, his strength had increased a lot. However, he didn't stay stagnant.
"Nie Xingkong, do you want to come up and play again?" Cao Qingfeng looked at Nie Xingkong and provoked him maliciously.
Nie Xingkong glanced at Cao Qingfeng, but he didn't say anything. He was expressionless. He knew that today's main character was Chu Mu.
"Cao Qingfeng, if your hands are itchy, come up. I'll fight with you." Zhong Muchen's indifferent voice sounded.
Cao Qingfeng's expression changed. He could indeed defeat Nie Xingkong and even Li Qiyan, but he wasn't a match for Zhong Muchen.
"Go," Tao Shixiong said.
"Okay." Cao Qingfeng nodded. He turned around and landed on the Battle Platform, facing Zhong Muchen. "Just in time. I'll let you taste the power of the grade four sword skill I just comprehended."
"A grade four sword skill!"
"Senior Brother Cao also comprehended a grade four sword skill?"
"Great! Our Fair Sky Academy's overall strength has become stronger!"
The Fair Sky Academy's disciples shouted and waved their hands excitedly.
The difficulty of comprehending a grade four sword skill was more than ten times that of a grade three sword skill. In the entire Fair Sky Academy, only the chief disciple Xiao Ling and second disciple Tao Shixiong had comprehended a grade four sword skill. Now, Cao Qingfeng had also comprehended a grade four sword skill.
"Since that's the case, use your grade four sword skill to fight against me," Zhong Muchen said. He waved his sword mercilessly. All kinds of lights intertwined on the sword and condensed into one, shooting out with the sword.
Revolving Lightning Flame Wave!
The terrifying shockwave caused the space in the Battle Platform to creak, as if it was about to break.
Cao Qingfeng's expression changed greatly. Tao Shixiong's expression also changed. He never imagined that Zhong Muchen's mastery of a grade four sword skill had reached such a high level. Tao Shixiong was apprehensive.
Gritting his teeth, Cao Qingfeng also slashed out with his grade four sword skill after accumulating power.
Compared to Zhong Muchen's grade four sword skill, Cao Qingfeng's grade four sword skill was like a toddler who had just learned how to walk compared to an energetic youth who had matured for eighteen years. The difference between the two was obvious.
Even though Cao Qingfeng's sword intent and profound had been refined to the late stage of the Eighth Revolution, surpassing Zhong Muchen, there was still a huge gap between their mastery and perfection of their sword skills. As a result, Cao Qingfeng's sword skill was the first to be defeated.
Cao Qingfeng didn't admit defeat. He used his grade three sword skill to disperse the shockwave of the Revolving Lightning Flame Wave and used his movement technique to move rapidly. At the same time, he also used his grade three sword skill in an attempt to defeat Zhong Muchen.
However, the difference in strength wasn't that easy to overcome.
Cao Qingfeng was still defeated and obediently handed over ten thousand high-grade origin crystals and one hundred flying points.
"Good job, Senior Brother Zhong!"
The Soaring Sky Academy's disciples shouted.
"Senior Brother Zhong?" Tao Shixiong frowned slightly. Normally, the chief disciples of a academy would call him Senior Brother. Only a few people who had a good relationship with him would call him Senior Brother Zhong.
Tao Shixiong didn't think too much about the current situation because Cao Qingfeng had been defeated. Cao Qingfeng's defeat was within his expectations, but Zhong Muchen's grade four sword skill had actually reached such perfection.
'Even if your grade four sword skill has reached perfection, you still won't be my opponent,' Tao Shixiong thought. After Cao Qingfeng came down, he immediately jumped onto the stage to fight Zhong Muchen.
"Zhong Muchen, I've defeated you so many times. This time, I'll defeat you too. When the time comes, you better think about how you're going to get out of the academy." Tao Shixiong's tone was overbearing.
"Defeat me first." Zhong Muchen didn't mind and faintly smiled.
"Alright, take my move." Tao Shixiong waved his sword and Sword Light surrounded his body. In the blink of an eye, it condensed into a resplendent giant sword that appeared out of nowhere and slashed down.
An intense sharpness gathered in the giant sword, and it seemed like the Hundred Battles Stage was about to be split apart.
Zhong Muchen's face was solemn as he used Light Revolving Lightning Flame Wave and slashed his sword at Tao Shixiong.
The two grade four sword skills instantly expanded and a terrifying power erupted. The shockwaves wreaked havoc in all directions, and the Hundred Battles Stage's barrier creaked as if it couldn't withstand the power and was about to shatter.
Different colored lights crazily swept out, and under the huge power, Zhong Muchen and Tao Shixiong's figures swayed.
Tao Shixiong hurriedly steadied himself. Once again, a powerful aura gushed out from his body and soared into the sky. The four Profound Meanings and the sword intent intertwined and condensed into one, pouring into the sword as he slashed out.
A rumbling sound rang out as violent waves surged out, drowning the Hundred Battles Stage. It was like a flood that broke through a dam, like a tsunami that wanted to destroy everything.
Tao Shixiong's second grade four sword skill!
Tao Shixiong actually comprehended a second grade four sword skill!
In Zhong Muchen's impression, Tao Shixiong only had a single grade four sword skill. He didn't expect that his strength would increase in a single year. Tao Shixiong's improvement wasn't any slower than his, especially since Tao Shixiong had comprehended a second grade four sword skill.
The huge wave was enough to destroy everything in its path. Zhong Muchen couldn't dodge and was hit. The invisible barrier around his body blocked the impact of the grade four sword skill, but it was also destroyed.
When the huge wave dissipated, the Hundred Battles Stage remained unscathed.
"I've said it before. You're a loser under my sword. It was so in the past, now, and in the future." Tao Shixiong sheathed his sword and coldly snorted at Zhong Muchen.
Zhong Muchen didn't have the slightest bit of dejection on his face. With a faint smile, he sheathed his sword and took out ten thousand high-grade origin crystals and a hundred flying points, handing them over to Tao Shixiong.
"Scram out of the Flat Sky Courtyard!" Cao Qingfeng suddenly shouted.
"Scram out of the Flat Sky Courtyard!" The Flat Sky Courtyard's disciples immediately echoed Cao Qingfeng's words. Their imposing manner caused the Soaring Sky Courtyard's disciples' expressions to change.
"Tao Shixiong, although you've defeated me, today's main character isn't me," said Zhong Muchen with a smile.
"It's not you?" Tao Shixiong's gaze narrowed as he swept his gaze over the thirty Soaring Sky Courtyard's disciples. "Could it be that there's someone stronger than you in your Soaring Sky Courtyard?"
"You'll find out soon enough." Zhong Muchen smiled. His figure flickered and streaked across the sky, appearing in front of the Soaring Sky Courtyard's disciples. He greeted Chu Mu with his sword. "Senior brother Chu Mu, it's time for you to make a move. Whether or not our Soaring Sky Courtyard's wish will be realized depends on the sword in your hand."
"Chief senior brother, it's time for you to make a move." The other Soaring Sky Academy disciples also turned around and gave Chu Mu a sword salute. They spoke in unison, working together as one.
"Chief senior brother …" The Soaring Sky Courtyard's disciples' expressions changed. They didn't know how to react.
"He's Chu Mu!" Suddenly, someone shouted.
"Chu Mu, he's the cultivation trash whose cultivation talent is only at the low fifth rank?"
"His cultivation talent isn't high, but his comprehension isn't low."
"So Chu Mu is your Soaring Sky Courtyard's new chief senior brother. This kind of 'genius' who can't even reach the King Realm actually became your Soaring Sky Courtyard's chief senior brother …" Tao Shixiong sneered. What he meant was that it was the Soaring Sky Courtyard's misfortune for Chu Mu to become their chief senior brother.
