Lu Ming stepped forward with a faint smile on his face.
Xie Kuang's expression changed again, "Lu Ming, don't be impulsive."
It was rare for the Vermilion Bird Courtyard to obtain the title of the Best Newcomer King this time. Their reputation would definitely soar in the future. The sect would also give more resources to the Vermilion Bird Courtyard. He could not bear to see Lu Ming lose the ranking due to a moment of impulse.
Lu Ming smiled and said to Xie Kuang, "Elder Xie, don't worry. He's just a disciple of the Duanmu Family who has cultivated for a few years. What can he do?"
Then he said to Duanmu Jin, "Duanmu Jin, I agree."
"Good!"
Seeing Lu Ming agree, Duanmu Jin was overjoyed. He cupped his fists and said to the silver gowned elder, "Elder Wang, Lu Ming has agreed. Please allow it."
Elder Wang nodded and said, "Good. Since it's like this, we'll do as you say."
"Thank you, Elder Wang!"
Duanmu Jin barely suppressed the joy in his heart. He looked at Duanmu Tao and said, "Duanmu Tao, do you understand? Lu Ming is a candidate for the Newcomer King. His talent is very high. You have to do your best, understand? "
"Understood. Don't worry, Elder Jin."
There was a sinister smile at the corners of Duanmu Tao's lips. He looked at Lu Ming and said, "Lu Ming, it's not too late for you to admit defeat now. When we fight later, the saber and sword have no eyes. If you get hurt, don't blame me for not reminding you."
Duanmu Jin retreated a dozen meters and said, "Duanmu Tao, just do your best. My Mystic Essence Sword Sect's Newcomer King needs real talent, not trash who relies on luck."
"You don't have a chance now."
Duanmu Tao smiled sinisterly. He suddenly moved and unsheathed his sword, slashing towards Lu Ming.
Shua! Shua!
The sword flashed in midair and nine sword flowers appeared. Each flower was like a plum blossom, enveloping Lu Ming's body.
"This is a Yellow Rank Upper Level Martial Skill, Heavenly Plum Sword Art. Duanmu Tao has cultivated it for many years and has already reached the fourth level."
The eyes of the Azure Dragon Hall's Imparting Elder lit up.
"That's right, this Duanmu Tao's cultivation isn't very high, but his comprehension of Martial Skills is pretty good. To be able to cultivate a High Level Yellow Level Martial Skill to such a level in just a few years, that's quite rare. Duanmu Jin really has a good plan for Duanmu Tao to fight. I'm afraid that among this batch of newcomers, no one is a match for Duanmu Tao."
The Elder of the Black Tortoise Academy said.
"Despicable!"
Xie Kuang clenched his fists, his eyes filled with worry.
"Hehe!"
Duanmu Jin sneered.
But at this time, Lu Ming's face also had a sneer. His body was motionless. With a clang, a sword light burst out like lightning.
Fast, too fast. In a flash, it was right in front of Duan Mutao's face. The cold sword edge made Duan Mutao's heart shiver.
Retreat!
Without the slightest hesitation, Duanmu Tao frantically retreated, and that whatever sword flower also disappeared without a trace.
The smile on Duanmu Jin's face froze.
"What a fast sword. This is also a high-grade Yellow Level sword art."
The Elder of the Azure Dragon Academy's face changed.
"That's right. This is a high-grade Yellow Level sword art, Flowing Light Sword Art. I estimate that Lu Ming has at least cultivated it to the fourth level, or even the fifth level."
The Elder of the Black Tortoise Academy said, his eyes flashing.
Xie Kuang, on the other hand, was ecstatic.
Lu Ming was just a beginner. He did not expect his attainment in martial arts to be so high.
"Duanmu Tao, this is the martial arts that you've been cultivating for years? After years of hard work, you're only at this level. Come out and make a fool of yourself. "
Lu Ming said with a faint smile.
"Damn it, take another move from me."
Duanmu Tao roared. His body swayed, bringing out a series of afterimages as he attacked Lu Ming.
A powerful sword Qi burst out from the body of the sword.
He slashed out seven or eight sword Qi at Lu Ming.
So what if his sword art was fast? He wanted to use his powerful True Qi to suppress Lu Ming.
"I don't want to play with you anymore."
Lu Ming muttered and suddenly slashed out with his long sword.
Chi!
A sword Qi that was even sharper than Duanmu Tao's swept out.
Lu Ming had broken through to the third level of the Martial Master realm. The quality of his True Qi was already above Duanmu Tao's.
With a few puffs, Duanmu Tao's sword Qi was destroyed. Then, Lu Ming punched out with his left hand.
Flame Dragon Fist.
This punch directly landed on Duanmu Tao's dantian.
Duanmu Tao screamed as his body flew backwards and fell heavily to the ground. His face was pale as he spat out large mouthfuls of blood.
Silence!
The entire arena fell into silence.
Two moves, from start to finish, Lu Ming had defeated Duanmu Tao in just two moves. With this kind of battle strength, was he still a new disciple?
"My cyclone, my cultivation, Lu Ming, you crippled my cultivation?"
Duanmu Tao let out a mournful scream.
That punch just now, the powerful fist force had already destroyed the cyclone in Duanmu Tao's dantian.
Boom!
"Lu Ming!" Duanmu Jin exuded a cold murderous intent. He was about to dash toward Lu Ming.
However, Xie Kuang took a step forward and blocked in front of Duanmu Jin.
"Xie Kuang, get out of my way. I'm going to cripple this little bastard. He actually used such a heavy hand in a sparring match. His character is low, he deserves to be killed."
Duanmu Jin shouted.
"Duanmu Jin, when it comes to fighting, swords have no eyes. This is what Duanmu Tao said himself. I was able to control my strength and not kill him. It's fine if you don't thank me, but you're saying my character is low. I think the one with a low character is you!"
Lu Ming shouted.
"Little bastard, die!"
Duanmu Jin could no longer hold it in. His face turned red and he almost suffered internal injuries.
"Enough!"
The silver robed elder waved his hand and a powerful force emerged. Xie Kuang and Duanmu Jin both retreated.
"Elder Wang, you have to help Duanmu Tao."
Duanmu Jin shouted.
Elder Wang frowned and said, "Duanmu Jin, that's enough. When two people fight, swords have no eyes. Injuries are unavoidable. Don't be unreasonable."
The silver robed elders who were in charge of supervising didn't belong to any of the four great sects. They were directly sent by the sect master to ensure fairness and not be biased towards any of the four great sects.
When he saw Lu Ming's talent and strength, he was quite happy.
After all, the Mystic Essence Sword Sect had another genius.
However, Duanmu Jin wanted to kill Lu Ming for his own selfish desires. This already made him unhappy.
"This battle has also proven Lu Ming's strength. Now that almost everyone has come out, I announce that the first place is Lu Ming." Elder Wang announced.
"Damn it!"
Duanmu Jin's face was extremely ugly. He knew that he couldn't deal with Lu Ming today.
"Lu Ming, let's see how long you can be arrogant. Offending my Duanmu Family will not end well. "Duanmu Jin roared in his heart.
Not far away, Huang Yu, Xie Hong and the rest looked at Lu Ming with complicated expressions.
Lu Ming's strength was beyond their expectations. They concluded that Duanmu Jue must have died in Lu Ming's hands.
They secretly rejoiced that they didn't catch up with Lu Ming in the Secluded Night Mountain Range. Otherwise, they would be the ones dead.
"Duanmu Jin, 30 spiritual crystals. Hand it over."
At this moment, Xie Kuang walked in front of Duanmu Jin and sneered.
"Kekeke!"
Duanmu Jin gritted his teeth, but in front of everyone, he couldn't act shamelessly. He took out 30 spiritual crystals and handed it over to Xie Kuang.
"Haha." Xie Kuang laughed heartily.
After a while, the time was up and Elder Wang began to announce the rankings.
"Second place, Huang Yu. Third place, Xie Hong."
The rankings were announced one by one.
Feng Wu obtained the 22nd place with 131 points.
After the rankings were announced, Elder Wang continued, "Well, this year's trial for new disciples has come to an end. Those who have obtained rewards will be awarded together when you return to the sect and apply for the sect's identity jade token. Everyone is dismissed."
