In a situation where everyone had the same number of matches, they had already lost one or two matches before the very end. The remaining four people of the Noble Clan had already lost their qualifications to fight for the top eight.
Due to the intentional arrangements of the organizers, the eight giants did not meet each other in advance.
As the competition went on, the strong became stronger and the weak became weaker. The situation became more and more obvious.
The strong cultivators had golden dragons circling above their heads. For example, Sima Lingxuan was already twenty-five meters long. He was only one meter away from reaching the peak and obtaining all the Luck of the four Dragon Veins.
As for the weak cultivators like Murong Chong, they had very little Dragon Qi in the first place. Not only could their golden dragons not break out of their jade pendants, but their Luck would also be stolen.
The little golden dragon in the jade pendant no longer had any luster. It was no different from a real earthworm.
All the geniuses under the starry heavens gathered in the Five Nation Youth Competition. Who was the true dragon and who was the false dragon would be revealed at this moment.
No matter what pride one brought, no matter where one came from, this place did not care about one's background or clan. It only cared about the sword in one's hand and the saber in one's hand.
Whoever was strong would obtain Luck. If one was weak, they would be stolen by other geniuses, weakening their Luck. Even the people of the eight Noble Clans were no exception.
"The forty-ninth match: Noble Clan's Bai Qi versus Nangong Ziyue!"
At this moment, the sun was setting in the west. It looked like it would soon turn dark. After this match, the competition for today would probably end.
Nangong Ziyue had only lost two matches since the start of the competition. The first was in the elimination round, where she lost to Yue Chenxi. The second was in the ranking matches, where she lost to another Noble Clan disciple, Li Tianhua.
However, the two matches were not one-sided. Furthermore, her opponents were not ordinary cultivators. Although she had lost two matches, the crowd did not underestimate her strength. They felt that she could still fight for the top ten.
The golden dragon above Nangong Ziyue's head was twenty-three meters long, slightly shorter than the golden dragons of the eight giants.
"Xiu!"
Bai Qi leaped off his spectator stand and landed on the arena. The golden dragon circling in the sky descended and hovered above Bai Qi's head.
The twenty-meter-long golden dragon bared its fangs and claws as it glared at Nangong Ziyue's clearly smaller golden dragon. Under the pressure of its aura, Nangong Ziyue's golden dragon cowered, not daring to be impudent.
When Bai Zhan saw this scene, he smiled gently and said amiably, "Nangong Ziyue, you are not a match for me. You should just admit defeat and preserve your strength for the next matches."
Nangong Ziyue frowned slightly and said sullenly, "We will know if it is true or not after we fight. Li Tianhua defeated me only because his state countered mine. Do you really think that I am someone you can defeat easily?"
Bai Qi's expression was neither happy nor angry. He said calmly, "Then make your move. As for Li Tianhua, I have never considered him an opponent."
Hualala!
The sound of flowing water rang out quietly, and the Artistic Conception of Mountains and Rivers quietly appeared. Among the overlapping mountains, a river flowed smoothly.
Nangong Ziyue stood on the flowing water, drifting with the waves. Her legs did not move, but the mountains moved behind her. Nangong Ziyue's graceful figure gave off a gentle charm. She hid the Artistic Conception of Mountains and Rivers in her heart as she moved quickly towards Bai Shuihe in a strange manner.
Mountain and River Hiding the Heart. At the start of this round, Nangong Ziyue had not been able to execute it naturally and smoothly. She could only unleash it at the crucial moment.
However, after a few rounds, she had become increasingly familiar with this Mountain and River Hiding the Heart. If Nangong Ziyue ran into Yue Chenxi again, the victor would be hard to predict. This was also why Nangong Ziyue dared to challenge Bai Shuihe.
"Bang!"
When Nangong Ziyue arrived before Bai Zhan, the calm and natural Nangong Ziyue suddenly made a move. When she punched, the power of mountains and rivers that had been brewing in her heart for a long time erupted.
The fist wind surged, and space trembled. The might of this ordinary punch actually contained half the might of Nangong Ziyue's trump card, the Mountain and River Breaking Fist.
Bai Qi was slightly stunned. His expression was somewhat astonished. He had not expected Nangong Ziyue to have improved so much in such a short period of time.
If Nangong Ziyue continued to preserve her strength, she would have to put in more effort to defeat her opponent.
Never mind, I have already come this far. It is time to use the Four Season Saber Technique. Nangong Ziyue is now qualified to use it.
After Bai Qi made up his mind, he slowly placed his right hand on his saber's hilt and circulated the first move of the Four Season Saber Technique. "Splash!
Splash! "
Something strange happened. The clear sound of flowing water came from behind Bai Qi. When he drew his saber, the power of the cycle of seasons surged out. Suddenly, the distance between him and Nangong Ziyue lengthened.
No matter how fast Nangong Ziyue was, she could not catch up to Bai Qi's punch, which could shatter mountains. Nangong Ziyue remained one meter away from Bai Qi. The fist wind caused his clothes and hair to flutter continuously.
"Xiu!"
When Bai Qi drew his saber completely, the power of the cycle of seasons erupted. The distance between Bai Qi and Nangong Ziyue immediately widened.
It was not that Bai Qi retreated. Instead, it was that the power of the cycle of seasons shattered the power of mountains and rivers that Nangong Ziyue had been building up in her heart for a long time. Thus, her punch broke on its own.
"Leisurely Spring Water, Suddenly Warm, Then Cold!"
A river flowed down from the horizon. The water was clear and ethereal. Bai Qi hacked at Nangong Ziyue with his saber.
Taking the state of spring water and containing the power of the cycle of seasons, a river-like saber Qi quickly flew at Nangong Ziyue, changing between warm and cold.
Amid the mountains and rivers, Nangong Ziyue felt a huge saber Qi carrying the power of the cycle of seasons sweeping over, increasing the pressure on her.
That saber Qi was as warm as jade at one moment and bone-chilling in the next. It was hard to fathom. As Nangong Ziyue hesitated, she did not know how to break this move.
No matter what trick he played, it was just a strand of saber Qi. Immortal Mountains and Rivers! Break for me!
Nangong Ziyue could not guess whether the saber intent was hot or cold. She directly materialized the power of mountains and rivers. One punch was a mountain, the other a river. The mountains and rivers froze, preparing to use force to break technique.
"Bang!"
When the saber Qi arrived, it was like the heavenly river flowed in reverse. The power of the world surged over.
Nangong Ziyue's expression immediately changed. She wanted to use force to break technique. However, she was horrified to discover that the energy contained in this saber Qi was much stronger than her Immortal Mountains and Rivers. She could not clash head-on with it.
When the state of her fist shattered, Nangong Ziyue vomited a mouthful of blood. She used the power of mountains and rivers to quickly retreat among the mountains and rivers, resolving the energy contained in the saber Qi.
"Rumble! Rumble! "
Instantly, waves surged and the mountains trembled. The energy contained in the saber Qi was very strong. Just the remnant waves caused the mysterious phenomenon of mountains and rivers that Nangong Ziyue materialized to show signs of instability.
"Is this the power of the Four Season Saber Technique? How strong! Unexpectedly, it nearly broke Nangong Ziyue's entire state of mountains and rivers in one move. "
"Only Nangong Ziyue can continue. When the other cultivators encountered this saber strike, any state they had would crumble immediately."
"Earlier, he broke Nangong Ziyue's attack in half a move. The moment he drew his saber, Nangong Ziyue's attack crumbled. Based on this, this Bai Qi is even stronger than Li Tianhua. "
"In this Five Nation Youth Competition, he is the person most likely to defeat Sima Lingxuan. The other Noble Clan disciples are no match for him."
When the many cultivators in the spectator stands saw this startling saber strike, the Four Season Saber Technique that they had been waiting for finally appeared. Everyone's hearts immediately surged. Their faces flushed red, and their emotions surged.
"You are still not willing to admit defeat?" Bai Qi frowned slightly, appearing somewhat angry. His saber trembled slightly, and a misty saber intent started accumulating. He said sullenly, "Eighteen Heaven Breaking Saber Strikes. First saber strike, second saber strike, third saber strike, fourth saber strike …"
Bai Qi stood rooted to the ground, not moving at all. Then, he executed another strong Martial Technique.
As the saber light danced, a boundless light spread out. This was because the saber Qi was too dense, giving off a faint light. Bai Qi's peak Small Perfection saber intent shot out together with the saber Qi towards the mountains that Nangong Ziyue materialized. "Bang! Bang!
Bang! "
With the support of the saber intent, the might of the Eighteen Heaven Breaking Saber Strikes reached its peak. Every time Bai Qi sent out a saber strike, a mountain peak would shatter. After the eighteenth saber strike, the mountains and rivers were all destroyed.
The state of mountains and rivers that Nangong Ziyue was so proud of had been completely destroyed by Bai Qi in an extremely cruel manner, leaving nothing behind.
The mountains could no longer be seen, and the rivers could no longer be seen. Only the boundless saber light and the misty saber intent remained, resounding in all directions.
It was as Bai Qi had said before. As long as he chopped down the mountains and shattered the rivers, no matter how strong a state was, it would just be a decoration before absolute strength.
"Roar!"
When Nangong Ziyue was defeated, the golden dragon above her head cried out miserably. Bai Qi's golden dragon had devoured one and a half meters of its length. Its luster dimmed significantly, and it looked weak and listless.
On the other hand, the golden dragon above Bai Qi bared its fangs and brandished its claws, roaring ferociously. Its eyes were spirited, and its aura was very ferocious. It was now twenty-five meters long, catching up to Sima Lingxuan's twenty-five meters.
As Xiao Chen recalled Bai Qi's Four Season Saber Technique, he entered deep thought. This was different from what he had imagined.
Originally, when Bai Qi learned the Four Season Saber Technique, he would have comprehended it on his own.
Now, it looked like he was wrong. Bai Qi's path was the same as the Bai Clan's ancestor's. It was probably after Bai Shuihe successfully comprehended the Four Season Saber Technique, he passed on his comprehensions and experiences to his descendants.
Now that he had a rough idea, Xiao Chen muttered to himself, "If I follow the path of my predecessors, naturally, I will be able to take many detours, and it will be much easier. However, this Four Season Saber Technique is different from other Martial Techniques. It does not have a fixed state. Comprehending it on one's own is the most suitable. "
Simply put, if Bai Qi only followed Bai Shuihe's path, he would lose miserably when he met Xiao Chen. There would not be any surprises.
However, Liu Suifeng, who was at the side, was astonished. He was also a person who practiced the saber. He could feel the vast might of that Leisurely Spring Water more clearly than others.
He sighed and said, "What a strong Saber Technique. No wonder others say that the Four Season Saber Technique is the strongest Martial Technique under Heaven Ranked. It truly lives up to its reputation."
The surrounding elders of the Heavenly Saber Pavilion all nodded to themselves. Even if it were them, they would not be able to turn the situation around; they would only suffer a crushing defeat.
