From Xu Lixue, Lu Chenfeng, to Li Yaotian, and then to the Ten Directions Nirvana in Li Yaotian's palm …
Zhan Ren discovered that his heart was beating faster. This Lu Ping was probably not as simple as he had imagined. He subconsciously raised his head. His teacher, Song Yuan, looked down from the top of the Seven Star Tower, his expression uncertain. The two of them avoided eye contact, but Zhan Ren knew that his teacher had no idea what to do either.
Li Yaotian walked between Lu Ping and Zhan Er, glancing at the two of them.
"Are you sure you want to fight?" he asked.
"Yes." Lu Ping nodded without the least bit of hesitation. As he answered, he put the Blowing Horn Chain Camp into the four fingers of his right hand and held it tightly.
No matter how uneasy Zhan Ren felt, he could not back down now. He could only nod.
"Okay." Li Yaotian confirmed. He slowly raised his right palm, and the Ten Directions Nirvana in his palm gradually left his hand and floated into the air. At the same time, the soul energy from all around the training grounds suddenly rose and gathered in the air. Finally, it gathered at the apex of the Ten Directions Nirvana and shrouded the ground. The area of this training ground was already more than twice the size of an ordinary one. The soul energy shrouding the ground emitted a faint green light, like a waterfall that slowly flowed downwards. Only Lu Ping and Zhan Ren remained in the field. The others had long since left the ring.
Lu Ping counted out the Seven Star Tokens and looked at Zhan Ren. "How many?"
Challenging a first disciple was a question that no one cared about. The significance of victory was greater than one or a few Seven Star Tokens. However, Lu Ping still followed the rules of the Seven Stars Trial. He was the challenger, so it was up to Zhan Ren to decide how many Seven Star Badges he should get.
Zhan Ren snorted coldly and did not reply. He casually fished out the tokens and threw them into the air without even looking at them.
Lu Ping looked up. After confirming that there were three Seven Star Tokens, he lowered his head and counted out three three-ring Seven Star Tokens and six four-ring Seven Star Tokens. Then, he checked again to make sure that his calculations were correct. Only then did he throw the Seven Star Tokens into the air.
It was an unexpected duel that attracted a lot of attention. Finally, it officially began.
"Please." Zhan Ren felt uneasy, but he didn't panic. Although Lu Ping had received the inheritance of the Divine Weapon, in everyone's hearts, he was still a newbie who had entered the Academy less than a month ago. Compared to his first disciple, Zhan Ren, there was a great disparity in their statuses. Hence, no matter how much Zhan Ren was wary of Lu Ping's attacks. He couldn't take the initiative to stop Lu Ping from making a move. Against a newcomer, he had to give Lu Ping a chance to make a move.
"Alright." Lu Ping nodded. He didn't bother to exchange pleasantries with Zhan Ren. Zhan Ren said, "Please," so he made his move. Since he had already taken out his Divine Weapon, he did not hold anything back. He swung his right fist that was holding the Blowing Horn Chain Camp.
The Soul of Cry, which was circulating at high speed, threw the Ecstasy Soul Lock out of the way. Under the 170% strengthening of the Horn Blowing Camp, it instantly revealed its ferociousness. A roar erupted from the tip of Lu Ping's fist. The sound of this fist tearing through the air was beyond anyone's imagination. It made everyone tremble in fear.
A ripple had already rushed out from the tip of Lu Ping's fist.
What kind of speed was this? Too many people didn't even have the time to think about it. They only saw the tangible Soul of Cry rushing in front of Zhan Ren.
But Zhan Ren was ultimately not many people.
He was the head disciple of the North Style Academy's seven peaks. He was also one of the strongest experts in the continent. If it could be said that 99% of the cultivators couldn't see Lu Ping's fist technique clearly, then Zhan Ren was one of the remaining 1%.
It's here!
He could see it clearly.
The Soul of Cry arrived in an instant. But he had been waiting for this moment.
This fist. He couldn't block it.
Even if he used his soul power to set up a defensive barrier, it would still be penetrated by the Soul of Cry. Hence, he could only dodge.
The Soul of Cry was rushing over, but Zhan Ren was already moving. And his moving form was very strange. Any movement that any human being can make. They had to rely on a few fixed joints in their body. With the joints as the axis, they could move their body.
But Zhan Ren wasn't like that. Rather than saying he moved like a human, he was more like a snake. His body seemed to have joints everywhere. His movements were actually unimaginable to ordinary people.
His movements were more like swaying. But this kind of swaying was extremely efficient. He actually dodged Lu Ping's Soul of Cry that had been strengthened by the Blowing Horn Camp.
Everything happened in an instant.
In an instant, the Soul of Cry arrived in front of Zhan Ren. In an instant, Zhan Ren dodged it. In an instant, the Soul of Cry landed on the soul power that enveloped the training field.
What would happen to the training field?
This had already become the second question that everyone was concerned about, other than victory.
In the third round, Lu Ping had used his full strength, and destroyed the training field with one punch. The second round of the training field would definitely be more balanced, but Lu Ping had taken out a divine weapon. Hence, this time, in this match, Heng Yu Scholar Li Yaotian personally acted. He used his divine weapon, Ten Direction Annihilation, and set up this custom.
This, became another victory and defeat.
Lu Ping's fist, or the training field, who would win and who would lose?
Boom!
The Soul of Cry collided with the cover of the training field. There was a loud sound, green light shining.
The Soul of Cry that had originally flowed down slowly like a waterfall suddenly met with a pushing force that went against the flow. The ripples spread out, and seemed to create layers of waves on the training field. In many places, the waves looked like they were about to fly up.
But, in the end, they didn't. The waves rolled, and the point where the Soul of Cry collided spread out in all directions. In an instant, it covered the entire training field. The Seven Star Token floating at the top was shaken, and couldn't stop vibrating. But the Ten Direction Annihilation at the center, was still as stable as Mount Tai. The light of the green candle only flickered in the instant that the Soul of Cry collided. After that, it was as calm as before.
It was blocked!
The people that were watching this match at close range were all experts. They naturally knew that this time, the training field had finally blocked Lu Ping's fist. Heng Yu Star's Li Yaotian's move was as expected extraordinary.
But immediately after, the green candle's light flickered again.
What?
Everyone's hearts jumped along with the candle's light. Hurriedly looking, they saw that Lu Ping had already used his second punch.
The second punch was also dodged by Zhan Ren, and also hit the training field.
Then, the third punch, the fourth punch, the fifth punch … …
The candle's light finally could not stay still, and finally began to flicker non-stop.
Everyone was shocked.
Such powerful punches, and Lu Ping could actually punch after punch? And they were executed so closely, there was no time for rest and adjustment between the punches.
As the saying goes, the unyielding cannot last long, and when it reaches its peak, it will fall. This was a universal truth. Why did it become useless when it came to Lu Ping?
If he kept punching like this, how many punches could he make?
If he kept punching like this, would the training field's customization be able to withstand it?
Just as they were worrying, one of the Seven Star Tokens hanging above suddenly fell when the candle's light flickered again, like a rootless leaf.
This customization, was it going to be broken?
Everyone turned their heads, and looked at Li Yaotian.
The outcome of the match between Lu Ping and Zhan Ren was unknown. But this training field seemed to be the first to lose.
