However, even though the Giant Soul was powerful, Nangong Jue wasn't one to sit still and wait for death. How could she let the Giant Soul defeat her?
Seeing the Giant Soul charging at her again, Nangong Jue didn't retreat this time. Instead, she waved her fan and a huge bird condensed in front of everyone and flew towards the Giant Soul.
Boom!
Nangong Jue wanted to test how strong the Giant Soul was. A bird wasn't powerful, but it could help her understand the Giant Soul's strength.
Obviously, the Giant Soul under Chen Hongyuan's control couldn't dodge in time. The Giant Soul's fist landed on the bird's body and scattered it.
"This strength isn't small at all!" Nangong Jue sighed in her heart.
Even though the bird wasn't very powerful, it was still relatively powerful compared to ordinary attacks. However, it was scattered by the Giant Soul's fist. Moreover, the Giant Soul didn't slow down and charged at Nangong Jue again.
However, this time, Nangong Jue couldn't avoid it. Seeing this, Nangong Jue didn't retreat anymore. She took a step forward and circulated her spiritual power. Then, she threw a punch at the Giant Soul.
A small fist appeared in the shadow of the Giant Soul's fist. However, to everyone's surprise, it wasn't Nangong Jue who was pushed back. It was the Giant Soul who seemed to have the upper hand.
Roar!
The people below the arena widened their eyes when they saw this.
Actually, this wasn't the first time many of them had seen the Giant Soul. In the previous two matches, Chen Hongyuan had used the Soul Refining Technique.
Therefore, they more or less had some understanding of the Giant Soul's strength. At least in the first two battles where the Giant Soul had appeared, none of them dared to fight head-on with the Giant Soul.
Obviously, Nangong Jue was the first to do so. Even though Nangong Jue's performance the day before had won everyone's admiration, they still thought that Nangong Jue would be at a disadvantage when she fought the Giant Soul with her bare fists.
However, the Giant Soul was actually pushed back by Nangong Jue's small fist. This was unbelievable.
"Not only does Nangong Jue have many tricks up her sleeves, but her physical body is also so strong. Isn't she too powerful?"
"Yeah! I heard that the Nangong Family has always been a gentleman, and their Dao techniques are very exquisite. However, I didn't expect the Nangong Family to have such a powerful physique. This is too shocking. "
"If the disciples of the Nangong Nobles are so powerful in terms of their physique and Dao techniques, then wouldn't our families be no match for them?"
"That's hard to say. Perhaps this is only true for Nangong Jue. Not all the disciples of the Nangong Family have such a powerful physique!"
"That makes sense. After all, I've never heard of the Nangong Family being so good at physical cultivation!"
It was obvious that Nangong Jue's punch had stirred up a huge commotion among the aristocratic families, especially the Ji and Situ Families. Seeing Nangong Jue in such a state, their understanding of the Nangong Family had once again been refreshed.
Ji Xian and Situ Yuanxiong couldn't help but look in the direction of the Nangong Family. When they saw Nangong Chengye looking at Nangong Jue with a satisfied smile on his face, their hearts sank.
Based on their understanding of the Nangong Family, the Nangong Family wasn't very good at physical cultivation. However, looking at Nangong Chengye's expression, it seemed that Nangong Jue's physical strength was very normal. This made the two of them suspicious.
"Since when did the Nangong Nobles start to focus on the cultivation of the physical body?" This was the question that the two of them were most concerned about at this moment.
The Nangong Family's Dao techniques were already very strong. If they were allowed to make progress in physical cultivation, wouldn't the Nangong Family's strength increase greatly?
In fact, the appearance of Nangong Jue didn't prove that the Nangong Family's strength had surpassed the Ji and Situ Families. However, Nangong Jue's strength was enough to show that the Nangong Family had great potential.
Their Dao techniques were very profound. Even if not every disciple of the Nangong Family was as powerful as Nangong Jue, a strong Dao technique would obviously increase their strength.
For example, Nangong Ke. Although he was only at the Initial Stage of the Great Ascension Realm, he wasn't afraid even when facing a Late Stage of the Great Ascension Realm. He even almost caused the Situ Family to lose.
If all the disciples of the Nangong Family were like Nangong Ke, it would be terrible.
Moreover, from Nangong Jue, they could see how strong the Nangong Family's Dao techniques were. One had to know that Nangong Jue was only a young disciple. In the Nangong Family, there were many experts.
These experts would definitely be much older than Nangong Jue. If Nangong Jue was so strong, then wouldn't the experts of the Nangong Family be even stronger?
Could it be that the Nine Family Competition was the best opportunity for each family to understand the other families?
500 years was a very long time even for cultivators like them. Normally, it was very difficult for them to have such a comprehensive understanding of the other families.
The Nine Family Competition was the best opportunity. Clearly, after so many years, the Nangong Family's strength had made them more and more afraid.
In particular, in the previous Nine Family Competition, the Nangong Family had obtained third place. They had also sent 20 disciples into the Dead Realm. Now, it seemed that the Nangong Family had obtained a lot of benefits from the Dead Realm.
This time, it was obvious that no one could stop them from entering the Dead Realm. If they obtained even more high-quality resources from the Dead Realm, it would definitely be very disadvantageous for the Ji Family and the Situ Family.
At this moment, Ji Xian and Situ Yuanxiong seemed to have the same thought. Both of their faces revealed a hint of worry as they looked at each other at the same time.
Without any extra expression, the two of them just looked at each other and withdrew their gazes.
However, the two of them could clearly understand each other's feelings.
The rise of a family meant the sharing of resources. As the Nangong Family became stronger, it meant that they would be able to share more and more resources. They might even be able to take away the resources that originally belonged to the Ji Family or the Situ Family.
Therefore, at this moment, the Nangong Family had pulled the hatred between the two families to the highest point.
