Within the Conference Hall, the Great Elder of the Inner Sect asked Li Zhangfeng worriedly, "Master, should we head over to stop them?"
Li Zhangfeng said, "This is a matter between the younger generation. Don't go and cause trouble for now. If we go, it won't be easy to resolve."
Actually, it would be useless for them to go, since Ling Huyi and Yun Xiaoshui's power was not something they could handle. Of course, if it really came to that, they would have to go even if they did not want to. As the leader of the school, they had to protect the school's dignity.
"But, Zhiyuan should not be Yun Xiaoshui's opponent! He had just broken through to the peak of mid Sea of Soul realm. If they had come a few months later, it would have been great. " The head elder did not doubt Gao Zhiyuan's talent at all, but this Yun Xiaoshui was not easy to deal with either. With the gap of one realm, Gao Zhiyuan's chance of winning was not high.
"We have to believe in Zhiyuan. In recent years, he has rarely revealed his strength." Li Zhangfeng had quite a bit of confidence in Gao Zhiyuan. If he could escape from Yun Xiaoshui's hands, it would be the best result. If he could even fight to a draw, then the school would definitely gain a lot of face.
…
On Grand Supreme Elder's mountain peak, Ye Chen asked curiously, "Why didn't Elder Lu show up?"
The next moment, Ye Chen came to a realization.
Back then, when Master Lu targeted him, it was because he did not hide his cultivation at all, which was why Master Lu could sense it. Right now, Ling Huyi did not expose any qi, so naturally, Master Lu would not be able to sense it. Although Master Lu was not in his right mind, he still cared about the school subconsciously.
"Gao Zhiyuan's qi is not weak at all. Battling with this Yun Xiaoshui, it is not like he has no chance of winning. It all depends on his profound sense. Oh right, he has also learned a special sword intent. I wonder what kind of sword intent it is?"
As these thoughts flashed through his mind, Ye Chen continued to use his soul power to observe the people on the main peak's plaza.
…
"Since you are so confident, how about we spar? Don't worry, I will not kill you." Yun Xiaoshui licked his lips and suggested.
"Okay, sure."
Gao Zhiyuan agreed right away. He was sure that if he didn't agree, the other party would definitely not let the matter rest. Since it was like that, it was better to fight him once.
"Senior Brother Gao, be careful."
Li Cui reminded her from behind.
"Senior Brother Gao, you must defeat him."
Wu Changxing did not have many scruples and directly shouted from the back.
"I know."
Gao Zhiyuan looked very serious and sharp. After reaching peak level Mid Sea of Souls Realm, he had experienced the one with the world, and all of his profound had improved. However, Yun Xiaoshui had one more experience, so his profound comprehension might not be weaker than his. Perhaps, it might even be above him. The only advantage he had would be his sword intent, which would give him a sliver of hope.
No matter what, he was still a powerful Sea of Souls Realm master level warrior.
Seeing that the two were about to battle, Mo Xiaotang revealed a relieved expression. She took a step back and glanced at Yun Xiaoshui, but she looked at Gao Zhiyuan for a longer time.
"Zhiyuan, I hope you don't blame me."
Mo Xiaotang thought.
On the plaza, everyone took a few steps back, creating a huge space for the two. Gao Zhiyuan and Yun Xiaoshui stood a hundred steps away from each other.
"Take this!"
Yun Xiaoshui did not have time to waste with Gao Zhiyuan. He wanted to beat Gao Zhiyuan in the shortest time possible and step on him.
His body flashed once, and his body shot out like flowing water. In the middle of his body, he tightened his right fist, which shone with a black halo. The space seemed to be vibrating a little, and with a slight twist, he threw out a punch toward Gao Zhiyuan's head.
"Earth Crack!"
Clang! The sword was unsheathed. Gao Zhiyuan shouted in a low voice and leaned his body forward. The dark yellow sword in his hand turned into a blazing sword light. The inside of the sword light vibrated violently, giving people a heavy and overbearing impression.
Boom!
The two wanted to test each other's power, so their first attack was a head-on clash. An explosive-like qi flow spread out with the two as the center. A thick layer of the plaza's ground was shaved off, and cracks spread out like spider webs.
In the next second, the two backed out at the same time. Yun Xiaoshui backed out ten steps while Gao Zhiyuan backed out seven.
"Senior Brother Gao has the upper hand!"
The disciples of the Zhang Tian Martial School yelled out.
"No, it is Yun Xiaoshui who has the upper hand." A peak level Late Astral Reaching Realm core disciple shook his head, looking serious.
"Why do you say that? Senior Brother Gao had only backed out seven steps, but Yun Xiaoshui had backed out ten."
"Judging from the situation, Senior Brother Gao indeed has the upper hand. But, Yun Xiaoshui did not use any martial arts, only normal attacks."
With that, everyone understood, and they could not help but worry for Gao Zhiyuan.
"He is indeed at peak level Late Sea of Souls Realm. Even with my earth profound martial art, I only managed to get a slight upper hand."
Gao Zhiyuan did not dare to be careless, so he stared at Yun Xiaoshui without blinking.
"Haha! Just so-so! Take another attack of mine!"
Yun Xiaoshui laughed out loud as he jumped toward Gao Zhiyuan again. A powerful thunder light gathered on his fist, which was then thrown out like a thunder.
"So fast!"
Gao Zhiyuan had mastered two kinds of profound, one being the earth profound and the other the fire profound. This time, he had performed the fire profound sword art, which was like an exploding flame with an extremely powerful explosive power. It had barely blocked out Yun Xiaoshui's fist.
Pap!
The thunder light shone brightly, and Gao Zhiyuan's whole body was blown away, while Yun Xiaoshui's body only shook a little.
"Thunder Light Step!"
Stepping on the thunder light, Yun Xiaoshui chased after Gao Zhiyuan like a lightning bolt.
"Sky Thunder Eighteen Fist!"
From dozens of steps away, Yun Xiaoshui kept throwing out punches. The fist light was like a rainbow, like the sky thunder. One after another, it was unbelievably fast.
After taking on fifteen punches, Gao Zhiyuan had already puked out blood. Yun Xiaoshui's comprehensive ability was not that much weaker than his, and his cultivation was higher than his as well. Therefore, he was destined to lose.
"Fall to the ground!"
The sixteenth punch was Yun Xiaoshui's expression as he threw out another punch toward Gao Zhiyuan's stomach. He was planning to use this punch to ruin Gao Zhiyuan, turning him into a piece of trash who could not train anymore. Only then would he be able to make Mo Xiaotang give up on him completely.
"Yun Xiaoshui, didn't you say that you would not wound him badly?"
Mo Xiaotang suddenly yelled.
Yun Xiaoshui did not care at all, his fist aura was horrifying.
"Burning Flame Sword!"
At that critical moment, Gao Zhiyuan performed his most powerful fire and earth profound sword art, blocking out Yun Xiaoshui's attack with one sword attack.
"Eh? You have blocked it out! But, let's see how you are going to block this one! "Yun Xiaoshui's seventeenth punch was coming, which was even more horrifying than the sixteenth one.
"No!"
Just when Yun Xiaoshui was about to attack Gao Zhiyuan, Mo Xiaotang suddenly made her move. She waved her hand and three iron pear flowers shot out, covering Yun Xiaoshui in a triangle shape. If Yun Xiaoshui continued to attack Gao Zhiyuan without caring about anything else, he would be attacked by the flowers as well, which would injure him badly.
"Huh!"
A sharp light flashed through Ling Huyi's eyes.
An air-piercing sound came from his back, and Yun Xiaoshui's expression changed drastically. His body flashed once, dodging the incoming attack. Of course, he had also lost the chance to attack Gao Zhiyuan.
"Xiaotang, what are you doing?"
Yun Xiaoshui's face turned green.
Mo Xiaotang did not reply. She walked toward Gao Zhiyuan with determination and stood in front of him.
"What are you trying to do?"
Yun Xiaoshui had a bad feeling.
"Brother Yun, can't you see it? She is playing with you. "Ling Huyi suddenly said.
"Playing with me?" Yun Xiaoshui looked at Mo Xiaotang in disbelief as he said with a low voice, "Xiaotang, get out of the way! Get out of the way now, and I will pretend that nothing has happened. Don't force me."
"No!"
Mo Xiaotang shook her head with determination.
"B * stard! Head disciple is telling the truth! You have never liked me! You have been lying to me all this time!" Seeing that Mo Xiaotang was not going to get out of the way, Yun Xiaoshui yelled.
Out of Gao Zhiyuan's expectation, Mo Xiaotang actually admitted it, "Yun Xiaoshui, I have indeed never liked you, because I only like Zhiyuan. Being with you is just to provoke him, to make him leave the school and become stronger."
This time, Yun Xiaoshui coming to the school was actually Mo Xiaotang's plan. She had been talking about Gao Zhiyuan's talent and comprehensive ability in front of Yun Xiaoshui. She had figured out Yun Xiaoshui's personality and thought that as proud as he was, he would definitely come for Gao Zhiyuan. By then, with Yun Xiaoshui's power, he would be able to beat Gao Zhiyuan, who would not be able to keep up with his cultivation. Then, he would be able to make Gao Zhiyuan wake up and leave the school.
Hearing Mo Xiaotang's words, Yun Xiaoshui finally understood. No wonder this woman had approached him on her own accord, but did not get too close to him. It turned out that she had never liked him in the first place, and was only using him to provoke Gao Zhiyuan.
"Xiaotang, you?"
Gao Zhiyuan looked at Mo Xiaotang in shock.
Mo Xiaotang looked at Gao Zhiyuan softly, "Zhiyuan, since the first time I saw you when I was thirteen, I fell in love with you. With each passing year, I fell in love with you more and more. How could I be so cruel and leave you to be with someone else? I did not want to see such a genius like you being dragged down by the school and turned into a mediocre person. You should not live a normal life; you should be able to dominate the world. As for me, I do not care about the fame and glory; I just want to watch you silently."
"Then why don't you let him beat me completely? Then, I might leave the school and try my best to increase my power." Gao Zhiyuan said.
Mo Xiaotang forced a smile, "I thought I could control my emotions, but I realized that I could not. The moment you were in danger, the only thought in my mind was to stop him, to stop him at all costs."
With Yun Xiaoshui's cruelty, even if he did not kill Gao Zhiyuan, he would still be crippled, which was not what Mo Xiaotang wanted to see. She had only hoped that Yun Xiaoshui could beat Gao Zhiyuan, not cripple him.
"So cunning, but so affectionate."
Ye Chen, who had seen everything, sighed.
