Just as a lot of people had guessed, Bai Zhengqi had used his own strength to forcefully break apart Ye Wen's sword control technique.
Furthermore, Bai Zhengqi actually took the initiative to attack Ye Wen. It could be seen that when he broke apart the sword formation, he did not receive any injuries. Even if he was really injured, it didn't seem to be serious.
"Bang! Bang!
Bang! "The battle between the two of them was very intense. A lot of the people present might not have seen the battle between the two of them last year.
But even so, after witnessing the exciting battle between the two of them, everyone could imagine that no matter how exciting the battle between the two of them was, it would definitely not be like today.
After all, the strength of the two of them had obviously increased tremendously in this one year. It was definitely not something that could be compared to last year.
Cheng Yu looked at the intense battle between the two of them with a tranquil expression. He had also seen the battle between the two of them last year. As for the elimination of Bai Zhengqi, he had also seen it very clearly.
Although Bai Zhengqi's talent was not bad and was even able to fight two realms higher than him, it was still not easy.
However, this Ye Wen's strength was also not bad. In the Great Ascension Realm late stage, he could definitely be considered as an expert. Especially his sword control technique, it was very strong.
Therefore, Ye Wen who was two realms higher than Bai Zhengqi had a greater advantage. It was reasonable for him to lose.
But in today's battle, it was hard to say who would win and who would lose.
This was because Bai Zhengqi's strength had increased a lot in this one year. As for why he was able to cultivate to the fifth layer in a year, it was mainly due to the Three Core God Fantasy Technique.
In this one year, Bai Zhengqi did not spend all his time on the Holy Emperor Heart Sutra. Instead, he had set aside a lot of time to cultivate the Three Core God Fantasy Technique.
What caused everyone to be pleasantly surprised was that he had successfully cultivated out two primordial spirits. Although it was only a primordial spirit and had yet to transform into a primordial spirit, in addition to the primordial spirit that he had previously possessed, he could be considered to have three primordial spirits.
Most importantly, the current him already possessed three times the cultivation speed. This was also the reason why he did not spend all his time cultivating the Holy Emperor Heart Sutra but had already cultivated to the fifth layer.
He was talented to begin with, and his cultivation speed was faster than ordinary people. Now that his cultivation speed was three times faster, how could it not be fast?
However, what caused Cheng Yu to feel regretful was that even though he had passed the Six Dan God's Fantasy Art to Bai Zhengqi, he was still unable to cultivate it.
This meant that Bai Zhengqi was indeed a descendant of the Four Great Palace Masters, but not a descendant of the Holy Master.
Otherwise, he would be able to cultivate six times faster. Even if he couldn't cultivate to the eighth level of the Holy Emperor Heart Sutra, it shouldn't be a problem for him to cultivate to the sixth level.
That's right, after a year's time, he had already cultivated the Holy Emperor's Heart Sutra to the eighth layer. Nine times the cultivation speed wasn't just for show.
Furthermore, in order to cultivate the Sacred Emperor's Heart Sutra, he had handed over almost all of the Cheng Family's matters for the past year, and he rarely showed his face in the family.
If it wasn't for the obvious slowdown in his cultivation from the seventh level onwards, he would have already cultivated to the ninth level.
However, even if it was only the eighth level, he was already very satisfied. At least this cultivation method was not as difficult as he had imagined.
If it was any other cultivation method, even with his nine times faster cultivation speed, it would still be very difficult for him to cultivate to such a high level within a year.
Although this Sacred Emperor's Heart Sutra could only be cultivated to the extreme, and only after awakening would it be able to display its greatest might, as the cultivation method's realm continued to rise, he could clearly feel the changes in his spiritual force.
Especially after he reached the seventh level, the changes in his spiritual force were even greater.
He had tried it before, and as the cultivation method's realm increased, his strength would also increase unceasingly.
Currently, the Sacred Emperor's Heart Sutra that Bai Zhengqi cultivated was one level higher than Ye Wen. This meant that the increase in his strength was obviously higher than Ye Wen.
In addition, the Three Dan God's Fantasy Art would increase his strength by three times. In comparison, he didn't feel that Bai Zhengqi would lose to Bai Zhengqi this time.
In the past, it was precisely because he possessed nine primordial spirits that he was able to fight against those who were stronger than him, and even managed to survive countless times.
Although Bai Zhengqi wasn't like him, possessing nine primordial spirits and increasing his strength by nine times, he was able to increase his strength by three times. At the very least, it wouldn't be a problem for him to use it to defeat Ye Wen.
Furthermore, it was obvious that Bai Zhengqi had yet to bring out his full strength. Just from how he was able to break Ye Wen's sword control technique formation so easily, it could be seen.
Perhaps, it was because the radiance was too dazzling, causing them to be unable to see what was happening inside clearly.
However, Cheng Yu had never averted his gaze as he had been watching the entire process of their battle attentively.
At that time, when Bai Zhengqi stabbed down, the strength behind it was extremely powerful. Even though Ye Wen had increased the might of the sword formation once again, Bai Zhengqi was like a hot knife cutting through butter, breaking the sword formation easily.
Therefore, if Bai Zhengqi were to face Ye Wen again a year later, even if he wanted to lose, it wouldn't be that easy anymore.
The battle between the both of them was very intense. Everyone was very excited as they watched. However, Cheng Yu was able to tell that compared to Bai Zhengqi, Ye Wen was starting to have some difficulty.
Although it was still very hard to determine the victor, both of them seemed to not be in a disadvantageous position. Others might not be able to tell, but Cheng Yu was able to see the details.
After all, regardless of cultivation realm, strength or experience, it was very easy for Cheng Yu to be their teacher.
It was just that Bai Zhengqi seemed to be intentionally concealing his true strength. He did not wish to expose it, or perhaps he did not wish to expose it too early. Therefore, the strength that he had displayed was not too different from Ye Wen.
But even so, every time Ye Wen took the initiative to attack, he would be suppressed by Bai Zhengqi. This was also the reason why Ye Wen felt that he was unable to exert any strength. To him, this battle was gradually becoming more and more strenuous.
"Clang!"
Both of their swords clashed at the same time. Both of them retreated.
"Hu hu!"
Ye Wen's breathing had started to quicken.
"This guy's strength actually increased by so much. What exactly did he do in this one year?" Ye Wen was incomparably astonished.
In the eyes of the spectators, both of them seemed to be evenly matched. It seemed to be a draw. However, as the one fighting, it was very obvious that he was in a disadvantageous position now.
Because he was about to use all his strength, but he was still unable to cause any substantial damage or threat to Bai Zhengqi. This caused him to feel very helpless.
He remembered the battle one year ago. Although Bai Zhengqi's strength was not bad, it was not the feeling he had now.
Today, he clearly felt that his opponent's strength was much denser than it was a year ago. It seemed like he was no longer able to see through his opponent's strength. This was a bad and uneasy feeling.
This was because he would only have such a feeling when he met an opponent that was stronger than him.
But now, this feeling actually appeared on the person that he had defeated in the past. This was very difficult for him to accept.
He believed that it was the same for everyone. In the past, he was clearly stronger than his opponent. However, one day, the opponent that he looked down on actually defeated him. This kind of feeling was very unbearable.
Last year, he defeated Bai Zhengqi with ease. It felt like he did not have to spend much effort. However, today, not to mention winning the match as easily as last year, even defeating his opponent had become difficult. He did not even have the confidence to do so. This caused him to become even more nervous.
"What the Clan Head said was right. Do not underestimate any of your opponents. I did not expect him to grow so quickly in a short one year. No wonder the Clan Head would let him be the standard for choosing a direct disciple.
Looks like the Clan Head should understand his strength very well. That's why he reminded me not to underestimate my opponent.
However, this Bai Zhengqi's strength has grown too quickly. Even if I know that his strength is not simple, it will be very difficult for me to obtain victory in this match! "Ye Wen's heart was filled with many thoughts. He had mixed feelings.
There was the difficulty of wanting to break out of this situation and also the extreme unwillingness.
"No matter how difficult this match is, I definitely cannot lose!" Ye Wen clenched his teeth and took the initiative to attack again.
Using the sword as a technique, he held his sword vertically in front of his chest. A white light shot out from the tip of the sword. Immediately, the clouds in the sky changed.
Thick layers of clouds could be seen revolving around the white light that shot into the sky, forming a vortex that grew larger and larger.
Therefore, the spectators could only feel that Ye Wen's aura was very strong and terrifying. It was obvious that he was planning to use his trump card.
Ye Wen did not want to lose!
At the very least, he did not want to lose in this match!
It was not common for the Clan Head to take the initiative to choose a direct disciple. Furthermore, if he was not chosen by the Clan Head today, then it was likely that he would not be chosen by the Clan Head again in the future.
Therefore, he could not hide his strength anymore. He could only fight with all his might.
Only by defeating Bai Zhengqi would he have unlimited possibilities!
"This Ye Wen is really not simple. He did not use this move in so many matches last year. Looks like he has always been hiding his strength." Seeing such a shocking scene, some people were extremely shocked.
Originally, they thought that they already had an understanding of Ye Wen's strength. However, it was only until this moment that they realized that they seemed to have underestimated this Ye Wen.
Looking at the strength that Ye Wen had displayed, it would be very difficult for most late stage Mahayana Realm cultivators to defeat him.
"This means that this time, Bai Zhengqi really forced Ye Wen into a corner. Otherwise, he might continue to hide like this."
"Looks like this Bai Zhengqi is indeed impressive. The difference between last year and this year is very big. However, I wonder how powerful Ye Wen's attack is and whether it can defeat Bai Zhengqi in one move.
