The Bai Clan elders looked at Xiao Chen with hostile gazes. They wanted to capture him on the spot and force him to tell them how he learned the Four Season Saber Technique.
However, even though they were upset, they did not dare to act rashly. For the past ten thousand years, the sects that caused trouble during the Five Season Competition all did not have a good ending.
In the ninety-fifth round, after this battle, all the other battles were inferior, giving people a dull and uninteresting feeling. Even the remaining matches of the giants were not worth watching. Occasionally, they would cast their gazes at Xiao Chen, who was resting with his eyes closed.
As they discussed in low voices, they were filled with anticipation for Xiao Chen's next appearance. Would he give them another pleasant surprise?
After this round of matches ended, only three of the eight giants remained with consecutive victories. They were Xiao Chen, Sima Lingxuan, and Chu Chaoyun. The number of people who could climb to the summit had shrunk once again.
The champion of this Five Nation Youth Competition would definitely be one of these three. As for Bai Qi, whom everyone had placed their hopes on, he had completely lost his qualifications to compete.
There were still five rounds left. The three of them would meet sooner or later. It was just that no one knew who would fight first.
"Next match: Xiao Chen versus Xuanyuan Zhantian."
Xiao Chen's match started once again. The previously silent atmosphere of the crowd immediately turned lively. All sorts of discussions broke out.
Although Xuanyuan Zhantian had lost to Chu Chaoyun and lost his qualifications to compete for the first rank, his strength was clear for all to see. No one dared to doubt him.
Be it his strong state of kingship or that wondrous Martial Technique that lasted until the end of time, Xuanyuan Zhantian was definitely within the top three of the younger generation.
If Xuanyuan Zhantian's opponent was not Chu Chaoyun, even if he fought against Bai Qi, everyone believed that he had a high chance of victory.
If Xuanyuan Zhantian fought against Xiao Chen, he might be able to force out some of Xiao Chen's strength, allowing everyone to see through Xiao Chen.
"Bang!"
Xuanyuan Zhantian did not hold back at all. The instant the match started, he struck the ground heavily with his Heavenly War Halberd. A vast state of kingship spread out like the sea.
"Point to the Heavens, Trample the Earth!"
The surface of the sea surged and eighty-one waves appeared. Xuanyuan Zhantian pointed his finger at the sky and stomped the ground. He charged over with a berserk aura.
Xiao Chen instantly merged the two states together with his sixty-percent-comprehended saber intent and executed Wukui Breaks the Heavens. The saber created a long beam of light as it intercepted Xuanyuan Zhantian in midair.
Using technique to break force, Xiao Chen used the characteristics of Wukui Breaks the Heavens to break the ferocious Point to Heaven and Trample on the Earth before its might reached its peak.
Xiao Chen had never been a cultivator who only knew how to fight head-on. In terms of technique and eyesight, he did not lose to anyone.
Taking the initiative, Xiao Chen continuously executed the Lightning Tribulation Saber Technique he had been storing up power for.
Xiao Chen started an intense battle with Xuanyuan Zhantian on the undulating sea. One side had the state of kingship, which ruled over the four seas. The other had a sixty-percent-comprehended saber intent and the state of thunder massacre.
On the Wind Cloud Platform, the two were locked in a stalemate. Waves surged and exploded wildly. Thunder rumbled endlessly as scarlet killing Qi spread everywhere.
"Bang!"
The Divine Lightning Tribulation knocked Xuanyuan Zhantian back. Xiao Chen stood in midair, holding his saber with one hand as he faced the wind.
Xuanyuan Zhantian spun around and stabilized himself. Then, he wiped the blood off his lips and smiled. "It looks like other Martial Techniques do not pose any threat to you. Be careful, I am going to use my killing move.
"In terms of pure offensive power, Unending Time is stronger than the first three moves of the Four Season Saber Technique. I really want to see how you will deal with it."
Right after Xuanyuan Zhantian spoke, the vast sea behind him started to turn into the state of changing the sea into mulberry fields. Time was merciless. Ten thousand years passed in a blink of an eye. Unending Time. Only the eternal state of kingship remained, unending for ten thousand years, everlasting.
The strong mysterious phenomenon was completed in just one breath. The state of kingship wrapped around the Heavenly War Halberd, giving off an ancient and solemn aura.
Xiao Chen shook his head to himself. This move was indeed strong. However, to him, its flaws were too obvious. Ten thousand years passed in a blink of an eye. In that case, if Xiao Chen could attack in half a blink of an eye, the other party's mysterious phenomenon would break by itself.
A fierce purple flame burned in Xiao Chen's right eye, forming a purple arrow that quickly elongated. This move was called the Purple Thunder Arrow. It was Xiao Chen's fastest Martial Technique. After his Purple Thunder Divine Incantation advanced to the sixth layer, his speed broke through the barrier of Martial Kings.
There was no strong explosive force or offensive power. There was only a horrifying penetrative power and an even more horrifying speed.
"Xiu!"
Just as the time in the blink of an eye was about to pass, the Purple Thunder Arrow shot out and a finger-sized bloody hole appeared in Xuanyuan Zhantian's chest. The state of Unending Time also started to become unstable.
Xiao Chen took advantage of this opportunity to rush forward. He executed the first move of the Four Season Saber Technique, the Spring Thunder Chop. Thunder rumbled, and the power of the cycle of seasons knocked Xuanyuan Zhantian back, causing him to vomit blood.
The so-called state of kingship that required ten thousand years to be tempered until the end of time easily broke before everyone's astonished gazes.
Ten thousand years is too long. I can only seize the moment!
After defeating Xuanyuan Zhantian, Xiao Chen's twenty-seven-meter-long golden dragon swallowed some of his energy. However, it did not seem to have changed much.
Xiao Chen's golden dragon was already too big. Furthermore, Xuanyuan Zhantian's golden dragon was weaker than Xiao Chen's. If there was any change, it would only be that it was brighter.
The pair of golden dragon eyes sparkled with life. The golden dragon was very intelligent, giving off the feeling that it was alive.
In this round, Sima Lingxuan's opponent was Wang Quan. Chu Chaoyun's opponent was Li Tianhua. Without any surprises, the two of them easily obtained victory.
The ninety-seventh round began. While the cultivators in the spectator stands were admiring the exciting Martial Techniques, the people from the City Lord's Residence were anxiously discussing the order of their appearance.
There were three cards on the main table. The names of three people were written in black: Sima Lingxuan, Chu Chaoyun, and Xiao Chen.
If there were no surprises, the champion of this Five Nation Youth Competition would be one of these three people.
After this round of competition, there were only three rounds left in the competition. Which two of them would fight first was a matter that these people were discussing.
The Dragon Sealing City's City Lord, Zong Liang, moved his right hand over the three cards. Clearly, this was not an easy decision to make.
No matter which two of them fought first, the remaining one would inevitably gain some benefits.
Zong Liang withdrew his hand and said to the people beside him, "Did you all come to a conclusion? Let's hear it."
A gray-robed old man said, "Replying to the City Lord, we all agree that Sima Lingxuan needs to fight one of them first. From the start of the competition until now, he is the one who has revealed the least trump cards."
Someone continued, "Xiao Chen revealed his sixty-percent-comprehended saber intent, the Four Season Saber Technique, the Lightning Tribulation Saber Technique, the state of massacre, and the state of thunder. Chu Chaoyun revealed his fifty-percent-comprehended sword intent, the peak state of light, the Life-Extinguishing Blood-Reversing Sword Technique, and the killing move, Eternal Light.
"As for Sima Lingxuan, he has only revealed the Son of Heaven's Sword Technique, sixty-percent-comprehended sword intent, and the state of kingship. These are all powerful Martial Techniques that he learned three years ago. How could he have improved so little in three years?"
Zong Liang muttered to himself for a while. Then, he took out the card that represented Sima Lingxuan. He asked, "Is the remaining person Xiao Chen or Chu Chaoyun?"
"I feel that it is Xiao Chen. He defeated Bai Qi too easily."
"I feel that it is Chu Chaoyun. He even dared to clash head-on with Xuanyuan Zhantian's spear strike. Even Xiao Chen had to resort to trickery to break this move."
Should it be Chu Chaoyun or Xiao Chen? With this, the people in front of the platform immediately split into two groups and started arguing non-stop.
Zong Liang frowned and said unhappily, "Stop arguing. Those in favor of letting Xiao Chen go first, raise your hand and decide."
The eight old men each made their decision. Then, four of them raised their hands to express their agreement. It was still a draw. When Zong Liang saw the situation, he said, "In that case, count me in. Let Xiao Chen fight Sima Lingxuan first."
After Sima Lingxuan spoke, he stacked Xiao Chen's card on top of Sima Lingxuan's. A grave expression flashed in his deep eyes.
Zong Liang said indifferently, "Consider it as wronging you. However, there is no such thing as absolute fairness in this world. A true expert will not bother with such rules and regulations. They will just keep winning."
At this moment, Xiao Chen, who had just ascended the Wind Cloud Platform, did not know that the City Lord's Residence had just made a decision that was disadvantageous to him. However, even if he knew, he would not care too much. It was as Zong Liang said; he would just keep winning.
Looking at the opponent, Xiao Chen revealed a relaxed expression on his delicate face. This was because his opponent was another old friend.
Yue Chenxi wore a long pink dress as she stood on the Wind Cloud Platform. Her spirited eyes looked at Xiao Chen. She could not help but feel somewhat rueful in her heart.
The affairs of the world were unpredictable. There were always some things that one could not predict. There were also some people that one could not figure out.
Two years ago, when Yue Chenxi faced Xiao Chen, she did not even need to use her state to fight him to a draw. Now, even if she used her full power and performed exceptionally well, she would not be a match for him.
Yue Chenxi recovered her wits. She smiled and said, "I'm afraid I can't use my full power against you now. Let's stop here."
Even if she used her full power, she would lose. Even if she did not use it, she would still lose. Since that was the case, there was naturally no need to use her full power.
Xiao Chen smiled gently and said, "Up to you. You make the first move."
Yue Chenxi leaped up gently and punched with a cool breeze. However, she did not use her state of light and cloud, relying only on her Movement Technique and the Morning Sun Fist.
"Bang!"
Holding the Lunar Shadow Saber, Xiao Chen casually touched the ground. The hard Wind Cloud Platform was like tofu, the scabbard sinking deep into it.
Yue Chenxi did not use her state. She did not intend to use her saber, either. Her figure flashed as she used the Dragon Claw Fist to clash with her opponent.
"Berserk Dragon!"
Vital Qi flowed through Xiao Chen's bones. He clenched his right fist, and an azure dragon head roared ferociously. Then, he clashed with Yue Chenxi. "Bang! Bang!
Bang! "
The two fists clashed. The berserk dragon roared ferociously, and light exploded. Soon, the two exchanged dozens of moves.
Yue Chenxi was somewhat astonished to discover that she would not be able to take down Xiao Chen within a short time if she did not use her state.
After another hundred moves, she still could not do anything to Xiao Chen. So, Yue Chenxi had no choice but to activate her state of light and cloud. A morning sun rose from the clouds. When she punched out, she knocked Xiao Chen back a hundred meters.
