Murong Xue had awakened an earth-ranked martial soul, but her martial soul had always been considered the weakest of all earth-ranked martial souls. It couldn't even compare to the other six geniuses' martial souls.
But today, under Lin Yun's guidance, she was able to unleash the true might of her martial soul. Only then did everyone realize that her martial soul wasn't any weaker than the other six geniuses' martial souls.
"Very good. This is the true strength of your martial soul." Lin Yun nodded in satisfaction, as if pleased with his disciple's performance.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he kicked the wooden spike beneath him into pieces.
The extremely dense wooden spikes were comparable to metal, yet they were easily crushed by Lin Yun.
Lin Yun dropped to the ground and swept his leg out, breaking three of the spikes in front of him. Then, he followed up with another two kicks, breaking even more spikes.
Before the spikes could regrow, Lin Yun charged into the forest of spikes with unstoppable force. He smashed through the spikes one by one until he was in front of Murong Xue. Then, like an arrow, he stabbed his finger towards Murong Xue's neck.
Just as his finger was about to pierce her neck, it stopped abruptly. A gust of wind blew Murong Xue's hair into the air.
Lin Yun remained in the same position. He stood in front of Murong Xue, not moving an inch.
Murong Xue didn't move either. She stood in front of Lin Yun with no intention of dodging. In fact, she wasn't even afraid. She knew that Lin Yun wouldn't attack her.
"I've lost." Murong Xue smiled cheerfully and admitted defeat.
Although she'd lost this battle, she'd lost very happily. She'd gained a very precious reward.
After the first match, the competition was temporarily suspended.
Afterwards, a few enchanting dancers began to sing and dance on the stage. This could be considered a side show for the competition.
As for Murong Xue, who'd just fought Lin Yun, she was brought to the recovery room by the proctors.
There was a recovery formation set up in the recovery room. This formation could gather large amounts of vital energy and rapidly replenish the energy a cultivator had expended.
This included Lin Yun and Murong Xue's battle. He hadn't used any vital energy at all, so there was no need to go.
After Murong Xue went in, she came out in less than fifteen minutes. When she came out, she was back to her best condition.
The curtains of the second match also began.
Including Lin Yun, who won the first match, he was saved for later.
As for the defeated Murong Xue, she moved on to her next opponent.
"Second match, Murong Xue versus Li Yifeng."
Hearing his own name, Li Yi Feng's figure flashed and suddenly disappeared from where he stood.
When he reappeared, he was already on the martial platform.
He stood as straight as a javelin, with his left hand behind his back and his right hand flat in front of him with his palm facing up. He had the demeanor of an expert.
Murong Xue knew very well that Li Yifeng was very fast, so as soon as the match began, she immediately condensed her martial soul with her vital energy and unleashed its abilities.
The vines extended towards Li Yifeng like venomous snakes.
However, before these vines could even reach Murong Xue, their target, Li Yifeng, had already transformed into a blur. He quickly bypassed all the vines and charged towards Murong Xue.
Murong Xue immediately used a large number of wooden strips to wrap herself up. At the same time, she manipulated two strips of wood, transforming them into two wooden hands that grabbed at the oncoming Li Yifeng.
When Li Yifeng arrived in front of Murong Xue, his figure suddenly flashed and disappeared.
When he reappeared, he was already behind Murong Xue.
He didn't hold back at all. His foot swept out, landing heavily on the wooden strips covering Murong Xue's body. The immense force broke the strips in half and sent Murong Xue flying with them.
Because Li Yifeng was simply too fast, Murong Xue had no time to control the density of the wooden strips. She didn't even have time to unleash the attack that Lin Yun had just taught her. Just like that, she was defeated by Li Yifeng.
"What a pity. If Murong Xue had used that attack, Li Yifeng would have lost without a doubt! It's too bad she didn't have time to use it. "
"That's right. Li Yifeng is simply too fast. He's the fastest cultivator among the younger generation of the royal capital. He deserves his reputation. "
After the second match, Li Yifeng and Murong Xue were both taken to a recovery room to recover their vital energy.
In just a few short minutes, both of them had returned to peak condition.
Now, it was time for the third match.
"The third match, Lin Yun versus Li Yifeng."
When he heard that he was about to fight against Lin Yun, Li Yifeng clenched his fists in excitement. His eyes shone with a golden light, and even his body couldn't help but tremble.
"Lin Yun, you're finally here. Hurry up and get up here!" Li Yifeng instantly appeared on the arena. His left hand was behind his back, and his right hand was extended in front of him. He was in a fighting stance.
Lin Yun's face was still expressionless. He stepped onto the arena without a word.
Compared to Li Yifeng's sudden appearance on the Martial Stage, Lin Yun's method of ascending the Martial Stage step by step seemed ordinary.
"Come, let me see your strength!" When he saw Lin Yun step onto the arena, Li Yifeng immediately went into a frenzy.
The referee glanced at the two of them, then waved his hand. "Begin!"
As soon as he said "Begin", Li Yifeng's figure flashed and disappeared.
In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Lin Yun. At the same time, his left foot suddenly stopped above Lin Yun's right shoulder. The strong wind brought by the sole of his foot blew Lin Yun's black hair into a mess.
No matter how strong the explosive power of Li Yifeng's kick was, he was unable to get closer to Lin Yun in the slightest. This was because Lin Yun's right hand was currently blocking his ankle, firmly blocking his kick.
Li Yifeng's eyes flashed with a hint of fanaticism. He quickly turned his body and swept his left foot horizontally.
Because his speed was too fast, his left foot actually "disappeared" in the instant it rotated, leaving behind an indistinct afterimage above Lin Yun's head.
This included Lin Yun lowering his head and kicking upwards. The tip of his foot went straight for the vital point between Li Yifeng's legs.
Seeing this, Li Yifeng hurriedly twisted his body in midair. At the critical moment, he managed to avoid Lin Yun's kick.
The two of them retreated a few steps and looked at each other from ten meters away.
A cold wind whistled between the two of them, causing the entire arena to fall into a deathly silence.
Everyone was silent as they looked at the two people on the arena. For a long time, no one said a word.
Li Yifeng was recognized by everyone as the fastest young genius. His speed had already surpassed many martial masters and was even comparable to a powerhouse like King Wu!
However, from the battle just now, Li Yifeng and Lin Yun's speed could be said to be equal.
The crowd simply couldn't believe that a mere disciple of a state or county Martial House could actually have such a terrifying speed!
