The training field slowly rose.
Because the intensity of the three rounds of the training field had greatly increased, the activation time was slightly longer. The soul power was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, slowly forming this custom-made barrier, encircling Lu Ping and Sui Tang.
Sui Tang stared at Lu Ping, the smile on his face gone. He still could not believe that Lu Ping had seen through his "dagger in a smile" so easily. The most powerful thing about this ability was its concealment. The opponent would often be hit without even realizing it.
Therefore, he was very confident. When Zhan Ren and his disciple mentioned Lu Ping's extraordinary perception, he smiled and said that he wanted to come and see for himself.
But now, he could not smile anymore.
Sui Tang's act of hiding a dagger in a smile was just a prelude, but Lu Ping had already seen through it. Moreover, Lu Ping had even blurted it out loudly. This made Sui Tang feel like he had lost face. He knew that although Zhan Ren and his disciple were not here, they must be paying attention to this side.
Sui Tang was not Zhan Ren's disciple. Like Zhan Ren, he was also Tianxuan Academician Song Yuan's disciple.
He was still in the third round of the Seven Star Trials, and it seemed that there was a big gap between him and the first disciple. But Sui Tang did not think so. He felt that he was slightly inferior, and there was only one reason — he had not received the Hall of Seven Sins' Divine Weapon inheritance.
Without the Divine Weapon, his strength would inevitably be inferior; without the inheritance, he could not open the door to accept disciples. But Sui Tang had single-handedly led the disciplinary committee, and he had done quite well.
This year, he had been very eager to get the opportunity to inherit the Divine Weapon. Therefore, he was very active in the Seven Star Trials. He wanted everyone, including his teacher, to see that even without the Divine Weapon, he, Sui Tang, had the strength to enter the second round of the Seven Star List. If he had a powerful Divine Weapon, it would be like adding wings to a tiger. Even the first disciple might not be stronger than him.
Therefore, after hearing that Zhan Ren's disciple had been defeated in the fifth and fourth rounds, Sui Tang volunteered to see Zhan Ren's disciple make a fool of himself. But this caused Lu Ping to give him a hard time. "Dagger in a smile" was only at the stage of setting up, but it had already been seen through. Was there any need to continue laughing?
Sui Tang's expression flickered for a while before he finally laughed.
He couldn't just deny his ability like this, even if it had been noticed by the other party, even if it was just a distraction. He had to continue using it.
"You're still laughing." Lu Ping looked at him and said as he took out the Seven Star Order.
"Make sure he can't laugh!" Sun Yingsheng shouted from outside the circle. Sui Tang had suffered a setback as soon as he came up, which made him secretly happy.
"I don't think this guy can do it," Yan Xize muttered. He had been waiting for Lu Ping to fight for a long time. Now, he was afraid that his opponent was too weak and would not be able to show off Lu Ping's ability. Poor Sui Tang, who felt that he was being very polite and smiling, was taken as a symbol of his incompetence in Yan Xize's eyes.
Sui Tang listened to the discussions outside and was extremely annoyed. However, it was Yan Xize who had spoken, so it was not appropriate for him to criticize him. He looked at Lu Ping taking out a big pile of Seven Star Badges from his pocket and throwing them into the air.
Six four-ring Seven Star Tokens. In other words, there were three of them.
Hence, Sui Tang took out three Seven Star Tokens from his chest. He was still smiling when he suddenly raised his hand.
Three Seven Star Tokens. They shot out like arrows and headed straight for Lu Ping's face.
"Despicable!" Sun Yingsheng shouted.
Even the Seven Star Tokens he had bet on before the duel were used as weapons. Sui Tang's smile hid a dagger. It was not just his ability, but his entire personality.
However, Lu Ping did not move in the face of the sudden attack of the Seven Star Tokens.
He heard it very clearly.
Sui Tang's Seven Star Token was thrown out suddenly, and the momentum was a little frightening. However, this was a feint.
The Seven Star Token that only had speed. It did not use much soul power to control it. This was completely insufficient to compete with the customization of the trial field.
Hence, he did not need to dodge. He needed to pay more attention. It should be Sui Tang's trump card.
As expected, the Seven Star Badges, which had been flying fiercely toward Lu Ping, only managed to cover half of the distance between them before they tilted their heads back and chased after the six Seven Star Badges with four rings thrown by Lu Ping. They flew toward the trial grounds.
He was thinking about several possible responses from Lu Ping. Sui Tang, who was ready to use his trump card, suddenly stopped moving.
He did not expect Lu Ping to see through it so thoroughly.
Sun Yingsheng, who was outside the trial field, realized that the Seven Star Token was just a bluff to attract attention.
It was amazing that Lu Ping saw through it. However …
"Too straightforward …" Sun Yingsheng sighed. He did not have such accurate judgment. If he did, he would not have stood still like Lu Ping with an "I have seen through it" look on his face. Wouldn't it be better to beat him at his own game and take advantage of the situation to deal with his opponent's trump card?
Because of Lu Ping's straightforward response, the duel fell into a stalemate. Sui Tang, who had a stomach full of tricks, did not expect Lu Ping to be so calm, and to be unable to continue.
Lu Ping attacked at this time.
It was an upright, direct punch that came towards Sui Tang's chest.
Sui Tang dodged easily.
Zhan Ren and the others had already provided him with information on the characteristics of Lu Ping's fist.
They could not block it, they could only dodge it. That was the consensus.
For those of lower cultivation, Lu Ping's fist might be fast, but for those of the Four Spirits Connected Realm, this speed was not fatal. With a bit of preparation, it was not difficult to dodge.
Sui Tang only swayed his body slightly, and the ripples from the punch swept past his body.
Then the Seven Star Token rang out above his head. The soul that Sui Tang had evaded naturally smashed into the trial field's custom-made floor. It followed the custom-made soul's power and rang the Seven Star Order.
Sui Tang was shocked, but he still wore a smile on his face.
"Good fist, heroes come from youth," he said. Looking at his smile, listening to his tone, everything was sincere. The two had already started fighting, but he was still so polite.
"Hm?!" Lu Ping was pleasantly surprised. He did not seem to care about what Sui Tang said, and was instead very concerned about the custom-made trial field.
"That's nice," he said out of nowhere.
"What?" Sui Tang did not understand.
"This is custom-made." Lu Ping gestured with his hand. "Much stronger than before."
"Of course." Sui Tang explained patiently to Lu Ping. "After all, from here onwards, most people are of the Four Spirits Connected Realm, and are much stronger than before. Naturally, the custom-made will be much stronger, so that everyone's power can be better controlled."
