A huge pair of black wings appeared on his back as Wu Liangyu floated above the battling platform, looking down at Ye Chen.
"Huh! As long as I can keep the distance, then there is nothing to be afraid of." Being considered weaker than Ye Chen and many of the people before him was a huge blow to Wu Liangyu. He did not know how the others thought about him, but in his opinion, the reason why Ye Chen could beat Ye Chen with one sword attack was because of the close distance and the sudden attack. Plus, Ye Chen had just finished preparing his most powerful ace attack, so he was a bit relaxed. That was why Ye Chen was able to take advantage of him. Right now, he was in the air, maintaining a hundred meters distance from his opponent. As long as Ye Chen made any move, with the speed increasing effect of the Black Crow Great Art, Wu Liangyu would have enough time to react, and would not let Ye Chen get close to him easily.
On the first row of the audience seating, the Black Crow Man nodded satisfyingly. What Wu Liangyu did was the best way to deal with Ye Chen. Only with enough distance would he be able to maximize the advantage of the Black Crow Great Art.
As for Wu Liangyu trying to increase the distance, Ye Chen did not care too much about it. The gap between them was not just a little bit, so it did not matter if there was a distance or not.
"Death Tornado!"
Wu Liangyu attacked. As the third disciple of the Sky Demon Martial School, ranked twenty-five in the last Hidden Dragon Rank, his power was still very powerful. Both of his wings flapped intensely, and the pitch black light shone brightly. Countless arc-shaped cutting waves accumulated in the air, forming into a tornado like black light wave, attacking towards Ye Chen. It covered the whole sky, making it impossible for Ye Chen to dodge.
Swoosh!
A weird sound of cloth tearing was heard. A scratch appeared in the sky full of black light, expanding quickly. Ye Chen walked out from it with his sword in his hand, completely unharmed.
Wu Liangyu's pupils shrank. He subconsciously flapped his wings, backing out quickly.
Shoo!
A beam of sword Qi brushed past his protective zhen Qi layer and landed heavily on the dark blue light wall, bringing up circles of patterns.
"I will see how you are going to break it this time! Death Storm! "
The wings on his back combined with the two scimitars in his hands, the Death Tornado had been upgraded into an even more horrifying Death Tornado. Countless arc-shaped chopping waves interweaved together, attacking towards Ye Chen with a destructive aura. Wu Liangyu believed that under this attack, as long as Ye Chen showed even the slightest flaw, he would be badly wounded.
One step, two steps, three steps!
Ye Chen took three steps forward, then lifted up his Star Scar Sword and attacked back.
Whoosh!
There were light blue electric sparks flashing in the midair, and the black tornado was split in half like a curtain being pulled open. Wu Liangyu, who was behind the curtain, did not even have the time to react before his protective zhen qi layer was sliced open. He flipped four times in the air before sliding down from the dark blue light wall.
"This sword attack contains both the poetic perspectives of cloud and thunder! How is this possible?" An inner master of the Sky Demon Martial School said with surprise.
Before, although Ye Chen had used his Sky Shattering Clouds poetic perspective a couple of times, he was still not eye-catching at that time. Plus, he was still holding back his poetic perspective. Therefore, not many people had noticed it. But now that his opponent was Wu Liangyu, it had naturally attracted everyone's attention.
Another inner master sighed, "Although poetic perspectives are not as hard to understand as sword intent, it is still a test of one's comprehensive ability and talent. Compared to him, Liangyu is still way too weak."
The Crow Man forced a smile. He could not help but look at Ye Chen a couple more times. He had seen Ye Chen three times, and his power had been completely different each time. To be honest, he had never seen such a horrifying speed of improvement from any young man before. Even Sikong Sheng was not as fast as him.
"What a little monster!"
The Crow Man's love for talent was aroused.
Ye Chen's win was not out of the judge's expectation, so he announced the result immediately. They all more or less had the same thought. They wanted to see how long Ye Chen's winning streak would last, and whether it would stop at the second stage of the competition. It was definitely a crazy idea.
"Twelve wins in a row! Why do I feel like watching Ye Chen's battles is so exciting? It seems to give people a sense of anticipation, and I can't wait for him to keep winning."
"Me too! I was just wondering. Logically speaking, the power he has shown so far has not reached the top ten yet. "
"Maybe it is because he knows everything about the others, but only he is a stranger. He belongs to the real nameless warriors. In the martial world, a nameless warrior beating a powerful warrior who had been famous for a long time would be the most sensational and widely spread news. "Someone pointed out the key point.
The others heard him and were all enlightened. Indeed, among the young generation, Ye Chen was indeed a nameless warrior, and he had been hiding his power all this time. He was not like Tuo Baku, who had shown his power that was enough to compete with the top young warriors from the very beginning. It had reduced the expectation that the crowd had for him, since he only had a few opponents, and the battles before were obviously just child's play.
Wah!
Wu Liangyu, who had just crawled up from the ground, puked out a mouthful of blood. His chest felt a lot better, but his mind was not.
He remembered that when he met Ye Chen in the Gold Tripod City, his power was almost the same as his. The reason why he was able to escape from the Wind Wolf's attack was not because of the difference in power, but because of the difference in perception, which allowed him to avoid the Wind Wolf's sound wave attack in advance.
It had only been a couple of months, and Ye Chen had not only reached the Late Clasping Yuan Realm, but his attacking power had also increased drastically. It was like a thousand miles in a day, leaving Ye Chen, who had only made some progress, far behind him. Right now, Ye Chen was thinking, 'How did Ye Chen train? Is the gap between us really that big? ' His three years of hard work could not even compare to Ye Chen's one year, or even a couple of months.
All of a sudden, Wu Liangyu looked depressed. Before, he was so arrogant because he was confident that he had made more progress than the others. But now, it seemed like it was not the case at all. The people in front of him had made more progress than him, and the people behind him had also caught up with him, which put him in an awkward situation.
Could it be that he, Wu Liangyu, could not be one of the top martial geniuses?
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and all of Wu Liangyu's ambition had disappeared. He felt that he was a bit ridiculous before, like a clown.
Ye Chen did not know what Wu Liangyu was thinking, and he did not care. But if it happened to him, he would not be as negative as Wu Liangyu. A real powerful warrior would first have to have a strong will and a strong heart. Even if the sky fell and the ground cracked, even if there were thousands of obstacles, they would face it with a smile.
Only with a strong heart would one have the essence of a powerful warrior.
The sixth battle had finished, and the seventh battle had begun. The two contestants were Tang Xiaoshan and a young warrior from the last Hidden Dragon Rank.
It seemed like he was fighting against Ye Chen. Tang Xiaoshan only threw out one blade attack and beat the powerful opponent, winning the twelfth battle.
A lot of people were talking about Tang Xiaoshan and Ye Chen. Among the top ten new stars, Tang Xiaoshan was ranked fourth, while Ye Chen was ranked fifth. Right now, Ye Chen had overshadowed Tang Xiaoshan, which made him feel a huge pressure. He wanted to use his sword art to prove that he was more powerful than Ye Chen, and that he deserved to be ranked fourth.
In the following third and fourth battles, Tang Xiaoshan's performance had proved this fact. First, he used the blade scabbard to beat the third opponent, then he used the normal blade draw art to beat the fourth opponent, which made him the most famous one.
Ye Chen did not have that kind of interest. Even if he did, he would not use Tang Xiaoshan as a competition target. He only needed to win one battle after another.
Even so, Ye Chen's fourteen wins in a row were still so eye-catching. His not competing was actually more convincing than Tang Xiaoshan's competition.
The battles here were getting more and more intense, and the other groups were not any weaker.
In the first group, Tuo Baku had just beaten the young warrior who was ranked ninth in the last Hidden Dragon Rank. What was more interesting was that he had taken an attack from his opponent before fighting back. His horrifying defense had made a lot of people frown. No matter what, that young warrior who was ranked ninth in the last Hidden Dragon Rank was not some random warrior. Who would dare to take an attack from him?
In the second group, Wei Renjie, who had beaten Lynch, had lost a battle. His opponent was none other than one of the top young warriors, the head disciple of the Heartless Martial School, Li Daoxuan.
Wei Renjie's entry level blade intent was without a doubt one of the top three warriors among the young generation. Unfortunately, his opponent was Li Daoxuan, whose sword intent had reached sixty percent. Once his sword intent was released, even the air had frozen. He had blown away Wei Renjie's great blade with one sword attack.
In the third group, Murong Qingcheng and the head disciple of the Alchemist Martial School, Meng Chao, faced each other.
Meng Chao's power was at the same level as Wu Liangyu's. His Red Burning Godly Palm was even hotter, able to melt gold and iron. However, facing Murong Qingcheng's Sky Demon Power Field, his Red Burning Godly Palm was completely useless. He had only thrown out three attacks before he was caught by Murong Qingcheng's Sky Demon Power Field, falling on the ground and making him dizzy.
In the fourth group, the head disciple of the Sky Demon Martial School, Demon Eyes Mo Yan, had performed the power of his Sky Demon Art. Every movement and movement was almost perfect. In his eyes, his opponent was full of flaws. There were openings everywhere, and he could attack from anywhere.
In the sixth group, the 'Fire Spirit Prince', Yan Chihuo, had shown the people what it meant to be aggressive and unstoppable. The long blade in his hand was like a dancing fire dragon. With one blade attack, the young warrior who had set up layers of defense had been blown away while puking out blood. It was a clean cut.
Right then, everyone was very clear that the following battles could happen at any moment.
"The fourth battle of the fifth round, Ye Chen against Tang Xiaoshan!"
As the judge's voice was heard, the atmosphere in the audience seating became heated.
Ye Chen was not surprised at all. Right now, the contestants were divided into six groups, and each group had twenty-four people. Excluding himself, there would be twenty-three people in total. Twenty-three people would go through ten rounds of battles, and each of them would have ten opponents. Therefore, the chance for Ye Chen to fight against Tang Xiaoshan was around forty percent. So, it was expected that he would fight against Tang Xiaoshan.
"The fourth and fifth of the top ten new stars are finally going to fight against each other. I wonder who will be more powerful?"
"You will know when you see it. Before, they had been winning all the time. After this battle, one of them will lose his winning record."
Tang Xiaoshan sneered. His body flashed and went through the dark blue light wall directly, appearing on the battling platform. He twisted his wrist, and a long blade appeared in his hand.
Seeing Ye Chen get on the battling platform, Tang Xiaoshan looked down, staring at the blade and said, "Let me remind you, my blade intent has reached fifty percent. If you do not want to get hurt, you can choose to give up."
"What? Tang Xiaoshan's blade intent has reached fifty percent? It seems like his ranking in the top ten new stars will increase by one or two. If it is not the second, then it will be the third. Qian Yun and Gu Youyun might not be able to beat him, and they might even be beaten instead. "
"He has hidden his power too well. Fifty percent blade intent … Among the young generation of blade users, he is only second to the 'Fire Spirit Prince', Yan Chihuo."
