Feng Ming was so powerful that no matter if it was in terms of his comprehension of the sword scripture or his own accumulation, he faintly surpassed everyone present. At this moment, no one went up to do anything that would cause them to lose face. They originally thought that he would obtain the Stars Sword Pill without any suspense, but who would have expected that Zhang Yan would stand out at this moment, instantly causing him to become the focus of everyone present.
Feng Ming, who was about to step out, stopped and turned around. He saw Zhang Yan standing at the furthest place. It seemed to be the seats of some Channel Opening Disciples. He thought to himself, which disciple is this, how can he be so ignorant?
However, even though he was slightly unhappy in his heart, he still put on a good front and revealed an easy-going smile. "If this Junior Brother is interested, you can come up and compare notes with me."
Disciples like him, who were chosen by the elders, were the backbone to fight against the disciples of the Xuanmen Aristocratic Families in the future. They also had to build their own team. Under the eyes of the crowd, he wanted to use his strength to suppress the disciples whose cultivation was close to his. But for the disciples whose cultivation was lower, he had to act friendly and win them over, in order to gain a good reputation.
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Then please enlighten me, Senior Brother Feng." He waved his sleeve and stepped forward.
Qin Nan's eyes had opened wide when he'd stepped forward, and at this moment, her face was filled with admiration as she gazed at his departing figure. She felt that if it was her, she would absolutely not dare to challenge Feng Ming, the person she admired in her heart.
Wang Kun's face changed when he saw Zhang Yan. As a member of the Haopu Wang family, he was also present during the battle between Wang Pan and Zhang Yan on Spirit Page Island. Naturally, he recognized Zhang Yan. Then, he seemed to think of something and suddenly turned to look at Feng Ming. There was a hint of schadenfreude in his eyes.
Under the gaze of tens of thousands of disciples, Zhang Yan walked all the way to the Bluestone Screen Wall and stood face to face with Feng Ming.
Seeing his calm and composed look, Feng Ming did not dare to be careless. When Zhang Yan was far away, he did not take a closer look. Now that he had a closer look, he realized that although Zhang Yan's aura was obscure, it was full of spiritual vigor. It was obvious that he was a Clear Qi cultivator. However, he could not tell which realm he was in.
He immediately put away his contempt, but did not really take it to heart. He smiled and said, "Junior Brother, please make your move first."
Zhang Yan had seen many of Feng Ming's techniques, but the opponent still knew nothing about him. He thought that if he made a surprise attack, he would have a great chance to take down this person.
But to fight for the Stars Sword Pill, one could not blindly fight. One also had to pay attention to the method.
The situation today was not a competition to see who was stronger and who was weaker. The key was to see who had a deeper understanding of the Righteous Sword Scripture in these ten days.
If he won too quickly, it could only say that his tactics were correct, or that his strength was stronger than the opponent, but it could not show how brilliant his swordsmanship was. By then, as long as Elder Chen was slightly biased towards Feng Ming, he would have the face, but the sword pill would still belong to the opponent. Wouldn't that be a waste of his efforts?
Therefore, he could only defeat Feng Ming in the use of swordsmanship, so that the opponent would not find an excuse.
Now that Feng Ming asked him to attack first, he did not stand on ceremony. He made a hand sign, and a white sword pill soared into the sky and floated above his head. He said, "Senior Brother, be careful."
As soon as he finished speaking, a white ray flew out at a speed that was hard to be seen by the naked eye.
Someone below the stage immediately exclaimed, "Rainbow Light Heavenly Ray!"
The so-called "Rainbow Light Heavenly Ray" was to convert more than half of the Spiritual Qi attached to the sword into Clear Qi, and then use the sword to slash. It could reach an extremely fast speed in an instant, and the more Clear Qi there was, the faster the speed.
In a short ten days, most of the disciples at the second and third level of Clear Qi had only comprehended the method of "Completion in One Breath", and only a few people had touched "Rainbow Light Heavenly Ray". Now that they saw Zhang Yan raise his hand, they could not help but exclaim.
The sword pill almost crashed in front of Feng Ming in the blink of an eye. He was also shocked, and hurriedly wanted to use the sword pill to fly out to block the enemy, but in the end, he was a beat too slow. At this moment, it was already too late to block. Seeing that he was about to be defeated, he saw that the sword pill slightly paused when it was about to touch his robe, and then retracted. His back unconsciously broke out in a cold sweat.
Zhang Yan retracted the sword pill and let it float above his finger. He smiled and said, "Senior Brother Feng, don't be distracted."
Because he attacked quickly and retracted quickly, no one below the stage saw any flaws, and thought that his sneak attack had been blocked by Feng Ming. A few disciples who were on good terms with Feng Ming immediately cheered.
Elder Chen, who was watching the battle on the stage, frowned slightly.
Feng Ming's eyes were first filled with surprise and doubt, but then he quickly calmed down and said in a low voice, "Junior Brother is brilliant, but you won't be so lucky next."
From the previous attack, he could tell that Zhang Yan's speed in controlling the sword pill was slightly better than his, and he definitely could not compete with him in speed. However, if he was on guard, he would not be afraid of that sneak attack. After all, the two of them were separated by a distance of about thirty meters, and he could intercept it in advance.
As early as a month ago, Elder Xun had secretly imparted this sword manual to him, which was why he had the confidence to go against everyone. It was just that he did not want to be too obvious, and it was inevitable that he would be criticized, so he did not use his full strength.
At this moment, he had already made up his mind. Once the other party attacked again, he would use "One Breath Complete" to knock down the other party's sword pill. He had forty-nine mouthfuls of spiritual Qi in his chest, and if they were gathered at one place to attack the enemy, no one present would be able to stop him. This was his greatest reliance, and winning with strength was what he should do.
Just now, the other party did not seize the opportunity to defeat him in one breath. That was because the other party was stupid, but in the future, he would not have such a flaw.
Feng Ming pointed with his finger, and the sword pill flew up and hovered thirty feet in front of him. He had adopted a defensive stance.
Not many people below the stage found it strange, and they just thought that he wanted to give his junior brother a chance to exchange blows, so he was defending and not attacking.
When Zhang Yan saw this, he knew what he was planning. He smiled in his heart, and the spell in his hand changed again. The sword pill floating above his finger suddenly spun, making a big circle, and attacked Feng Ming at a speed no slower than before.
Feng Ming hurriedly controlled the sword pill to meet it. Seeing that the two were about to come into contact, he could not help but reveal a happy expression. Who knew that at this moment, Zhang Yan's sword pill would suddenly turn in the air and go around him. This time, Feng Ming was shocked, and did not dare to hold back. The spell in his hand changed, and the sword pill also turned, trying to go forward to block.
Seeing that they were about to collide again, Zhang Yan's sword pill turned again. Feng Ming was shocked, and did not dare to let him come over. His sword pill also turned, and once again went to meet him.
The two sword pills were like birds chasing each other. After turning a few times in the air, the disciples below finally saw the trick, and they all cried out in surprise, "'Layered Waves'?"
This was the most difficult technique to grasp in the Clear Qi Realm of the 《Positive Source Sword Scripture》. First, one would use a breath of spiritual qi to drive the sword pill to turn one round to attack the enemy. If it missed or met with obstruction, the second breath of spiritual qi would superimpose on it, and it would spin again. After repeating this a few times, the speed of the sword pill would become faster and faster, and the power it contained would also become stronger and stronger, until the enemy could not block it or avoid it.
If one wanted to use this technique well, they had to have a good grasp of both 'Completed in One Breath' and 'Rainbow Light Heavenly Ray'.
After the two sword pills turned twenty-eight times in the air, Zhang Yan's sword pill had already closed in to within thirty feet of Feng Ming.
At this time, Feng Ming was already a little exhausted from running for his life. Unlike Zhang Yan who took the initiative to attack, every time he defended, he had to spend twice the energy, and only then could he barely keep up with his opponent's speed.
In the end, he was sweating profusely, but he still clenched his teeth and persevered, feeling that there was still hope in his heart. This was because an attack like 'Layered Waves' also had its limits, and that was, it could not exceed the upper limit of one's spiritual qi. If there were thirty-six breaths of spiritual qi in one's chest, the sword pill could at most turn thirty-six times. He did not believe that his opponent could still beat him in this aspect!
As long as he could get through this difficulty, the opponent's chest would be full of spiritual qi, and then he could only let himself be slaughtered!
