"Bang!"
When the light scattered, Chu Chaoyun faced the weakened Bai Qi, who had exhausted his mind. Chu Chaoyun sheathed his sword and kicked Bai Qi away like he was a sandbag.
Suppressing the shock in his heart, the referee announced the victor of this match. Then, he said softly, "Next match: Xiao Chen versus Sima Lingxuan!"
Xiao Chen was the greatest dark horse of the Five Nation Youth Competition. Since the start of the elimination rounds, he had been victorious. Be it the inheritors of the ten great sects, the absolute geniuses of the eight Noble Clans, or even the newcomers, no one could defeat him.
Sixty-percent-comprehended saber intent, the Four Season Saber Technique, the state of massacre, and the state of thunder. No one knew how many trump cards he had or how deep his accumulations were.
This was a disciple from a small sect in the Great Qin Nation. No one knew how many secrets he had.
Sima Lingxuan was the champion of the previous Five Nation Youth Competition. He was the undisputed first seed of this Five Nation Youth Competition. Sima Lingxuan's state of kingship and Son of Heaven's Sword Technique had not been revealed since the start of the ranking competition. No one could see through him.
Only the strong self-confidence in Sima Lingxuan's heart never wavered. He seemed to have a withdrawn glow. When the crowd looked at him, he stood out like a crane in a flock of chickens. Everyone could not help but lean closer to him.
The accumulations of the Sima Clan, Sima Lingxuan's exceptional talent, the reputation of the top swordsman of the Great Jin Nation, and all sorts of glory made Sima Lingxuan's self-confidence grow. Instead, he gave off a feeling of arrogance and conceit.
There were only three rounds left in the Five Nation Youth Competition. Now, these two finally fought. After this match, one of them would not be able to become the champion.
Neither of them could afford to lose. As long as they lost one match, they would immediately fall behind the other in points. They would not be able to catch up even if they wanted to.
The moment the two of them appeared on the Wind Cloud Platform, they instantly attracted everyone's attention. A super newcomer against a veteran giant. Who would emerge victorious?
If this were before Xiao Chen defeated Bai Qi, no one would be optimistic about the outcome of this match. However, now that he executed the Four Season Saber Technique, which was even stronger than Bai Qi's …
No one dared to come to a conclusion about this match. Even if they felt that Sima Lingxuan had a higher chance of victory, they would not say it out loud.
After more than a hundred battles, Xiao Chen had created too many miracles. Every time when everyone thought that his winning streak would come to an end, he would reverse the situation in one fell swoop.
This caused those cultivators who had predicted that Xiao Chen would lose to be slapped in the face and rendered speechless. At this moment, how could they still dare to jump to conclusions?
The scene was dead silent. No one made a sound, only countless gazes. He stared at the two people in the field with a fiery gaze, not daring to relax for even a moment. He was afraid that he would miss some wonderful scenes and regret it for the rest of his life.
Xiu!
Sima Lingxuan waved his hand, and a simple and heavy black scabbard sheathed his sword. With a 'ka ca' sound, it embedded itself deep into the Wind Cloud Platform between the two of them.
Cracks spread out in all directions. Strands of Dragon Qi soared up from the Wind Cloud Platform, accompanied by dragon roars, making the plain sword look extraordinary.
The moment Sima Lingxuan entered the Wind Cloud Platform, he showed off his skills. The hard Wind Cloud Platform was like mud to him, unable to withstand a single blow.
"You are very strong. Unfortunately, you ran into me, Sima Lingxuan. No matter how strong you are, you can only fight for second place. It was like this for Bai Qi three years ago. It will be the same for you and Chu Chaoyun three years later. Nothing will change. "
Xiao Chen's delicate and handsome face did not change at all. He said indifferently, "I'm afraid that I will have to disappoint you this time."
Sima Lingxuan laughed loudly and said, "I have not made a move for a long time already. It seems like anyone dares to speak arrogantly to you. As I said earlier, if I cannot defeat you in ten moves, I, Sima Lingxuan, will lose this match!" "Hu!
Hu! "
A strong wind blew and the clouds churned. Sima Lingxuan reared his head back and laughed, appearing wild and unruly. As the winds blew and clouds churned, the vast state of kingship, together with the confidence in his heart that was even higher than the sky, formed a strong aura surging towards Xiao Chen.
The heavy aura could make mountains bend and rivers flow in reverse. The mountains and rivers for thousands of kilometers were all under his control. Everything under the sky belonged to the king. If one dared to disobey, heaven and earth would not tolerate it.
A clear ripple could be seen on the Wind Cloud Platform. It compressed the space behind Sima Lingxuan as it rushed towards Xiao Chen.
If it were an ordinary person, just this aura would suppress them to the ground, unable to move at all. Just one gaze would be enough to make his opponent tremble in fear and defeat him.
"The power of wind and clouds, the state of kingship. Is Sima Lingxuan going to use his full strength?"
"He wants to defeat Xiao Chen in ten moves. Only Sima Lingxuan would not find it a joke if he said that."
"Let's wait and see if it is as he says."
The moment the aura appeared, the cultivators outside the Wind Cloud Platform immediately felt the power contained in it. They were all shocked. When they heard Sima Lingxuan's words, they immediately felt excited, their blood surging.
Who was Xiao Chen? He was someone who could easily defeat Bai Qi. Yet, Sima Lingxuan said that he would defeat him in ten moves, mocking him for being arrogant and not worth mentioning.
A strong wind blew. Before the aura, everything would vanish like smoke. It was like even heaven and earth could not tolerate Xiao Chen standing alone.
Xiao Chen's long hair fluttered in the wind, revealing the blue strip of cloth tied around his forehead. Xiao Chen gently tugged on it, and the blue strip of cloth immediately flew with the wind, floating high in the sky.
The scarlet throne mark on Xiao Chen's forehead flickered with a red light. The state of massacre in the throne was no longer suppressed; it was unleashed without restraint.
As the red light spread out, a powerful aura gathered behind Xiao Chen as well, the aura of massacre. The endless murderous intent was like a torrential flood, overflowing in all directions.
With just one glance, it made one's heart palpitate. All sorts of negative emotions — massacre, death, berserk — exploded in one's mind.
"How painful! What kind of state of massacre is this? How can one cultivate killing Qi to such a level? I don't even dare to look at it," the cultivators on the Wind Cloud Platform exclaimed.
"Bang!"
With the obstruction of the viscous red light, Sima Lingxuan's aura stopped a hundred meters in front of Xiao Chen with a 'bang', unable to advance any further.
A loud sound rang out like two mountains crashing into each other. The sky shook, and the entire Wind Cloud Platform trembled.
This is not enough, far from enough!
Xiao Chen's gaze sank, and he suddenly took a step forward. Then, he unleashed his state of thunder. Thunderclouds covered the sky above, and an eternal and immortal will spread out.
This was the immortal state of thunder that Xiao Chen comprehended from Thunder Emperor Valley.
The state of massacre from the ancient throne that slaughtered a hundred thousand Demons and the immortal state that Thunder King Sang Mu inherited — these two states that surpassed the limits merged in that instant. How could they fear the state of kingship of the mundane world?
Xiao Chen's aura soared several times over. As he took a step forward, he instantly forced back Sima Lingxuan's aura of kingship.
The sound of mountains crumbling resounded endlessly. Long, sinister cracks spread out on the Wind Cloud Platform. Before the fight even started, the vast Wind Cloud Platform had already shattered into pieces, leaving it in a sorry state.
Sima Lingxuan dared to say that he could defeat me in ten moves, insulting me. However, I, Xiao Chen, have never lost to someone of the same generation since I became famous in the Sky Dome Realm.
Heaven was unfair, preventing Xiao Chen from condensing a Martial Spirit at the age of sixteen. If he had another sixteen years, he would not even care about this Sima Lingxuan.
Even so, the current Xiao Chen was not someone that Sima Lingxuan could humiliate.
A strong wind blew, and a scarlet light spread out. Xiao Chen remained expressionless as he said in a cold voice, "Make your move. Let me see how you are going to defeat me in ten moves. I really want to know who is the arrogant one here."
At this moment, Xiao Chen's aura shattered Sima Lingxuan's aura. He no longer had the insufferably arrogant attitude he had earlier.
When Xiao Chen's cold voice reached Sima Lingxuan's ears, it made him feel somewhat uncomfortable. Right now, Xiao Chen's attitude was slightly higher than Sima Lingxuan's. When he spoke, he gave Sima Lingxuan a feeling of looking down on him.
"Since you want to be defeated that badly, I will grant your wish!"
Sima Lingxuan snorted coldly and gently waved his right hand. The plain sword stuck in the Wind Cloud Platform immediately came out of its scabbard.
Sima Lingxuan leaped into the air and grabbed the sword. Then, he shouted, "First sword strike, Sovereign Descending to the Nine Heavens, Wind and Clouds Arise!"
With the support of the sword intent, the one-meter-long sword hummed endlessly. When Sima Lingxuan swung his sword, it was like he was the son of heaven descending from heaven. Wind and clouds gathered under his feet.
In that instant, he rode the wind and clouds. Mountains, rivers, cities, and villages for thousands of kilometers around — all the living things in the world — materialized the state of a sovereign descending to the nine heavens.
One sword raised wind and clouds, materializing the state of a sovereign. Riding the wind and clouds, he stood on mountains and rivers.
"Sword momentum, state, and sword intent are all perfect and flawless. This sword strike is completed in one breath, with no flaws at all." When Liu Xiaoyun, who was in the spectator stands, saw this sword strike, he revealed an expression of admiration. He praised it from the bottom of his heart.
"Break!"
Xiao Chen's figure flickered, and he drew his saber. Purple and red lights intersected on the saber as he swung his saber at an extremely fast speed.
Xiao Chen struck the place where the wind and clouds gathered. A saber light flashed, and the wind and clouds split in half. The wind was wind, and the clouds were clouds. The state of a sovereign for thousands of kilometers around vanished into thin air.
All this happened in an instant. Right after Liu Xiaoyun spoke, Xiao Chen cleanly broke this move.
Liu Xiaoyun opened his mouth but could not say anything. His eyes sparkled as he said in astonishment, "The sword raises wind and clouds, materializing mountains and rivers for thousands of kilometers around. Then, there is the state of a sovereign descending to the world. As long as one breaks the wind and clouds, the state of a sovereign descending to the world will cease to exist. Why did I not think of that? "
The Drifting Snow Sword Sect's First Elder shook his head and said, "That won't do. Even if you thought of it, you would not be able to do it so quickly or be so decisive. However, Sima Lingxuan's wind and clouds are already very close together. How did he find the point of fusion and then separate the wind and clouds? This is really strange. "
With his sword move broken, Sima Lingxuan circled around and retreated a hundred meters. Then, he looked cautiously at Xiao Chen.
Who knew, Xiao Chen did not chase after him. He held his saber with one hand and looked calmly at Sima Lingxuan. He said, "Just make your move. I will break every move you make. I will not chase after you. I want to see how you will defeat me in ten moves."
"What a fellow! Sima Lingxuan is already arrogant enough. Unexpectedly, this Xiao Chen is even more confident than him."
"Breaking every move he makes. Even after breaking, he does not follow up with another attack. It looks like Sima Lingxuan's attitude has really angered Xiao Chen."
"Ha ha! It has probably been many years since someone spoke to Sima Lingxuan like this. Interesting, very interesting!"
