"This match will definitely be very exciting. Both of them are expert bladesmen. Furthermore, they are both newcomers. Both of them have a winning streak. There are too many things to watch."
In this relatively uninteresting match, before the match between Xiao Chen and Lin Fei even started, many people started discussing it.
Lin Fei had been waiting for this moment for a long time. As the others said, he had been suppressing a fire in his heart. After the referee announced the match, Lin Fei pushed off the ground and landed in the arena.
"Xiao Chen, don't think that just because you defeated Gong Yangyu, you can suppress me. Your winning streak will end here." When Lin Fei saw Xiao Chen enter the arena, he smiled disdainfully and purposely teased him.
Xiao Chen remained unmoved. He said calmly, "Just make your move. Let's see who will end whose winning streak."
Lin Fei's Earth Vein Saber Technique was unpredictable. It was indeed difficult to deal with. However, it was as Xiao Chen said earlier. If Xiao Chen wanted to use a surprise move to obtain victory, he could not keep going down this path.
After using the Earth Vein Saber Technique too many times, it was no longer a surprise move.
"Ha ha! In that case, hold your saber tightly. I'm coming!"
Lin Fei smiled gently, and his aura suddenly changed. His gaze became as sharp as a saber as he quickly flew towards Xiao Chen.
It had to be said that Lin Fei was indeed a brash person. However, when he entered a state of combat, his initial disdain and anxiety immediately vanished. If someone was confused by the aura Lin Fei displayed, they would be at a disadvantage. "Chi!
Chi! "
Lin Fei's speed was extremely fast. His body was like a solitary, sharp treasured saber. The formless wind in front of him was sliced in half like a piece of paper.
When Lin Fei was ten meters away from Xiao Chen, everyone thought that he would attack Xiao Chen head-on or circle around to attack Xiao Chen.
Suddenly, Lin Fei's upper body fell down. If it were an ordinary person, they would think that he tripped over something.
Naturally, the cultivators did not think so. Lin Fei had suddenly changed his move. His entire body was on the ground, and at some point, he had already drawn his saber. The edge of the saber flickered with a cold light.
His entire body flew towards Xiao Chen at an extremely fast speed. The tip of his saber was pointed at Xiao Chen's knees.
"How unexpected. To think that Lin Fei would actually attack in such a manner. Furthermore, he was able to change his attack in such a short period of time."
"Most importantly, his movements are flawless. It's as smooth as flowing water. It's obvious that he's practiced it countless times."
"It looks like it was no coincidence that Lin Fei was able to reach his current level."
Many martial artists on the platform exclaimed. If they were to face such a situation, it was very likely that they would be caught off guard and would lose their combat strength.
Even if Xiao Chen reacted quickly and dodged Lin Fei's attack, he would immediately lose the initiative and be forced to defend.
How would Xiao Chen respond?
When many people faced such a move, their first reaction would be to retreat. This was because the lower body of a cultivator was the hardest to defend.
Furthermore, Lin Fei's attack was very fast and unexpected. It would be even more troublesome to block. Hence, retreating was the best option. Even if they lost the initiative, there was nothing they could do.
However, Xiao Chen did not retreat. This was because he did not need to retreat!
In the time it took for a spark to fly, Xiao Chen moved. He held the sheathed Lunar Shadow Saber in his left hand and used the tip of the scabbard to chop at Lin Fei's wrist.
The tip of the scabbard pointed downwards. Its speed was extremely fast, giving off a piercing sonic boom. If Lin Fei's wrist paused for a moment longer, the scabbard would pierce through his wrist.
Relying on the speed of his attack, Xiao Chen reacted first despite making a move later. He immediately negated Lin Fei's unexpected attack and placed his opponent in an awkward position.
If Xiao Chen's saber moved forward another step, he would be able to kill this strong opponent until he lost his combat strength. This was a great temptation.
However, if Xiao Chen was too slow, his wrist would be pierced, and he would lose his combat strength.
Victory or defeat was decided by a single thought. A simple move was enough to shake people to the core. This move of Xiao Chen's was to compete in speed with Lin Fei. He did not say anything, only asking if Lin Fei dared to compete.
Did Lin Fei have the courage to compete? If you were faster, you would win, becoming the center of attention. If you were slower, you would immediately fall into the abyss. You would end up like Liu Xiaoyun, in a sorry state, losing all face.
The huge contrast challenged Lin Fei's mental state.
If Lin Fei's mental state was weaker, it would severely affect his performance in such a torturous situation. If he hesitated, he would not even have the chance to make a decision; he would be defeated.
After seeing Xiao Chen and Gong Yangyu's fight, Lin Fei knew how fast Xiao Chen was. Hence, he retreated. In the end, he did not dare to compete in speed with Xiao Chen.
Lin Fei slapped the ground with his left hand and stood up again.
His sneak attack failed, and he lost the initiative. He had to quickly pull away from Xiao Chen. Lin Fei had an unsightly expression as he quickly thought to himself.
"Bang!"
There was a loud sound as the tip of Xiao Chen's scabbard crashed into the Wind Cloud Platform. Then, it sank in by three centimeters.
The force was so great that it flabbergasted everyone. The most terrifying thing was that even with such a great force, the Wind Cloud Platform did not crack. The force did not leak out at all.
Everyone was horrified. If Lin Fei had not retreated, this move might have chopped off his palm.
"Xiu!"
A lightning-like saber light flickered. After Xiao Chen stabbed the scabbard into the platform, he did not pause at all. He immediately drew the Lunar Shadow Saber and hacked at Lin Fei with both hands.
Taking advantage of your weakness had always been Xiao Chen's style. Now that the other party had lost the initiative, this was the best opportunity to make a move.
Xiao Chen did not make a move yet. When he made a move, he had to do it with the force of a thunderbolt, injuring or crippling his opponent.
Lin Fei had just stood up and did not have the time to put some distance between them. When he faced this thunderous saber strike, he could only place his left hand on the saber and hold it across his chest to defend passively.
"Dang!" A huge force crashed into Lin Fei's saber. It was like a mountain of thunder pressing down.
Lin Fei did not even have time to react. He vomited a mouthful of blood and shot back like a cannonball, crashing into the Wind Cloud Barrier.
The huge rebound caused Lin Fei to fall to the ground. He vomited another mouthful of blood, and his complexion turned incredibly pale.
Xiao Chen flew forward, not giving Lin Fei a chance to catch his breath. He executed his state of massacre and state of thunder, not giving Lin Fei a chance to react. He launched an unending barrage of attacks. "Dang! Dang!
Dang! "
When the weapons clashed, sparks flew. Lin Fei struggled to deal with the attacks. He was pushed back repeatedly, and his pale face turned even more unsightly.
Every one of Xiao Chen's saber strikes contained vast force. With the support of the two states, the might was even greater, worsening Lin Fei's injuries.
If this continued, Lin Fei would definitely lose within a hundred moves!
"Earth Vein Saber Technique!"
After enduring for a long time, Lin Fei finally grasped an opportunity to execute the consummate technique that made him famous. When Lin Fei blocked Xiao Chen's attacks, a strand of saber Qi suddenly shot out from his feet, heading for Xiao Chen's chest.
The might of that Earth Vein Saber Qi was also very vast. It used the earth as its source of power, and it was no weaker than Lin Fei's full-powered saber strike.
Lin Fei did not hope that this strand of saber Qi could injure Xiao Chen. He only hoped that it would give him a chance to catch his breath. After being severely injured by Xiao Chen's saber strike, Lin Fei still had no chance to catch his breath.
The injuries in his body worsened. If this continued to accumulate, he would not be able to suppress them.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said calmly, "I have been waiting for the Earth Vein Saber Technique for a long time."
Others might fear this Earth Vein Saber Technique, but Xiao Chen had never feared it.
Xiao Chen clenched his left hand into a fist and circulated his Vital Qi. A sharp azure energy gathered on his fist. This was the Dragon Claw Fist's third move, Breaking Armor Fist.
"Bang!"
The sharp azure energy clashed with that strand of saber Qi. This punch, which had the attribute of breaking armor, immediately shattered that strand of saber Qi, turning it into nothing. Of course, the might of the Breaking Armor Fist was completely nullified.
As Xiao Chen attacked with his left hand, he did not stop holding his saber with his right hand. He swung it gently and sent out an Arclight Chop.
Another wound appeared on Lin Fei's body. His body was sent flying several times by the lightning currents that exploded from the arcs of light.
"You are too much! Xiao Chen, you have angered me!"
From the start of the competition until now, Lin Fei had been suppressed from the start. The Earth Vein Saber Technique that he was famous for was instantly broken by his opponent.
Lin Fei could no longer hold back the rage in his heart. He shouted, and his three-meter-long saber hummed. A sharp saber intent spread out from the saber.
Lin Fei said calmly, "Originally, I was only planning to use it in the ranking matches. Xiao Chen, you should feel honored that you managed to force me to use my saber intent."
The cultivators in the spectator stands were immediately astonished. They had not expected Lin Fei to have hidden himself so deeply. He had actually comprehended saber intent, the most difficult thing for a bladesman to comprehend. Furthermore, he had not used it yet.
"This time, Xiao Chen is in trouble. With the support of saber intent, the might of a bladesman's Martial Technique will increase by at least fifty percent. Looking at Lin Fei's saber intent, it should have reached twenty percent as well. It is only slightly weaker than Bai Qi's. "
"Furthermore, they are both bladesmen. If one side has saber intent and the other does not, the difference will be even more obvious."
"Indeed, a swordsman can use sword intent to block. What can a bladesman use to block?"
A cultivator in the spectator stands sighed softly. Saber intent was hard to comprehend. Once one comprehended it, one would gain boundless might. This was already a publicly acknowledged fact in the world of cultivators. The situation was probably going to turn around soon.
"Withering Grass and Trees!"
Lin Fei roared ferociously and executed his trump card Martial Technique. A desolate aura spread out from the saber's edge, making everyone feel the heavy aura of death.
If there were any flowers or trees here, the power of this saber strike would definitely cause them to wither quickly.
With the support of saber intent, the might of this move increased explosively. It contained the power to wither everything. This time, Lin Fei took the initiative to attack, hoping to turn the situation around in one move.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said indifferently, "Saber intent? I seem to know it as well. "
"Weng!"
The long, pitch-black Lunar Shadow Saber trembled uncontrollably. A saber intent that was even stronger than Lin Fei's spread out wildly from the saber's edge.
The strong saber intent pierced through the Wind Cloud Barrier, causing the bladesmen nearby to feel fear. The sabers in their hands trembled as well.
"This … this is a peak Small Perfection saber intent. It is on par with Bai Qi's saber intent!"
"This is too shocking. Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen comprehended saber intent as well. Furthermore, it is much stronger than Lin Fei's."
