News of the battle between Su Yun and Shaochengtian had spread throughout Aoran College. Now, Su Yun was going to do it again!
On the second day of the battle, Su Yun sent out another challenge. His opponent was Tong Lie, who was ranked 20th on the list!
"How can he be so confident?!"
"Tong Lie isn't like Shaochengtian. I heard that he's already half a step away from the Spiritual Grandmaster Realm. How can a Spiritual Leader Realm cultivator deal with someone who's already at that level?"
"I'm afraid he's miscalculated this time."
"You can't say that. After all, he looked relaxed when he fought Shaochengtian last time. Although he's only at the peak of the Spiritual Leader Realm, no one knows how strong he really is."
"Judging by his momentum, he seems to want to make it to the list."
"He's only been at the college for a year, but he's already so strong. He's a genius."
"I wonder how far he can go."
Su Yun's actions this time set off another wave.
As the initiator, he was still cultivating in the Celestial Pavilion. The threat of the Dragon Spirit Severing Curse was imminent. After the challenge, he had to prepare for a breakthrough.
Time passed quickly as he cultivated. Xu Qian arrived at the Celestial Pavilion early.
"He accepted the challenge. Not only that, he's already waiting on the arena outside the Cultivation Pagoda." Xu Qian replied.
"Oh?" Su Yun was surprised. "Did he say anything?"
"No, but it seems that he's very interested in your challenge," said Xu Qian.
Su Yun nodded. That was probably because Su Yun had caught his attention during the last hunt.
"Since he's already waiting there, I can't be too late. Let's go. "Su Yun stood up. There were still two hours before noon.
It seemed that the battle had to be brought forward.
"Su Yun is just a person who is not in the top 50 of the Ling Jue List, but Tong Lie actually accepted his challenge."
"What's more surprising is that Tong Lie came early to wait for Su Yun."
"I wonder what Su Yun has done for him to be so important to Tong Lie."
"As far as I know, they've only met each other during the last hunt."
"It seems that Tong Lie is very interested in this battle."
"Is he going to lose?"
"If he dares to challenge Tong Lie, he must be confident."
"Su Yun's face is really not small." One of them raised his head and looked outside, then turned back and said.
The others followed his gaze. Not far from the Cultivation Pagoda, there was a black-robed youth standing as straight as a spear.
"That's … Xiao Yichen!"
"I can't believe he's here."
"Maybe he's here for Tong Lie."
"But he doesn't seem to have anything to do with Tong Lie."
"Look, Su Yun is here!"
On the small path outside the Cultivation Pagoda, two silhouettes quickly flashed over.
"At least he knows his place and didn't make Tong Lie wait for too long."
"The show is about to begin."
Su Yun stepped onto the stage and smiled apologetically as he cupped his fists: "Senior Brother, why are you doing this? I don't deserve it."
Tong Lie said: "Since you're here, let's begin."
Su Yun nodded when he saw that Tong Lie didn't blame him.
Su Yun made the first move as usual. The moment he shot out, a shocking aura erupted from his body.
"He's still bare-handed!"
"I wonder if he's confident or conceited."
Tong Lie also had some attainments in Body Refining, so he didn't dodge when he saw Su Yun's attack. He bowed slightly and withdrew his fist. Astral winds filled the air.
"Boom …" Spirit energy collided with fists. Two different-colored astral winds mixed together and spread outwards.
After the exchange, Su Yun's figure floated backwards. Tong Lie also took three steps back. The stage made of special materials had already cracked under his feet.
Tong Lie steadied himself and was greatly shocked. He didn't expect Su Yun's Body Refining to be on par with his!
A Boy In A Black Robe's eyes lit up. This was probably due to Lei Zhu's Body Refining. However, Su Yun's cultivation speed was truly shocking.
"You really didn't disappoint me." Tong Lie said seriously.
"Thank you for your guidance." Su Yun came out and transformed into a shadow, and suddenly took advantage of the situation.
Tong Lie leaned forward and met him head-on.
Every part of their bodies turned into the sharpest weapons as they fought with their bodies. This kind of fighting method was rarely seen by the people below the stage. Therefore, this scene caused the entire Cultivation Pagoda to boil with excitement.
The two's figures were close to each other as they constantly flickered. Every time they exchanged blows, there would be a dull sound, followed by a tyrannical astral wind. Countless cracks had already appeared on the stage beneath their feet.
It seemed like the two were evenly matched. However, Tong Lie was the only one who couldn't express his bitterness.
Every time they exchanged blows, there would be a tyrannical wave of Spirit energy pouring out from Su Yun's body. Over time, this wave of Spirit energy caused his internal energy to become turbulent.
On the other hand, Su Yun was still at ease. Tong Lie knew that he couldn't continue like this. He immediately mobilized 50% of his Spirit energy and poured it out with a punch.
Su Yun didn't expect Tong Lie to be so impatient. He was caught off guard and was pushed back twenty to eighty feet. He barely managed to stabilize himself.
"As expected, the older the ginger, the spicier it is." Someone in the audience laughed.
"I'm afraid that Tong Lie was forced to use this punch." Someone with a sharp gaze looked at Su Yun and said seriously.
Su Yun wasn't surprised to see Tong Lie like this. He extended his hand and the Heaven Seizing Sword appeared in his hand. Sword Qi filled the air as it continuously sliced apart the Spirit energy around him.
Tong Lie calmed his slightly disordered breathing. He raised his hands and a square hammer appeared in his hands.
"He's going to be serious!"
Tong Lie didn't move, but he was as immovable as a mountain.
Su Yun still made the first move. His sword moved along with him and the Flood Dragon Rises from the Sea.
Tong Lie raised his square hammer in a simple manner. Although his body seemed to be full of openings, it made it difficult for others to attack.
The Heaven Seizing Sword's moves were unconventional, so he was able to move with ease.
The first move was the Shoulder Breaking Strike.
Su Yun's body was like a graceful swan as he flashed past. Clang! Clang! Sparks flew in all directions.
The square hammer looked cumbersome, but in Tong Lie's hands, it didn't seem clumsy at all. This move was intercepted by the handle of the hammer.
The following attacks were like a violent storm. Tong Lie thought that he could gain the upper hand by using a weapon, but he didn't expect to be suppressed even more.
In the end, a hammer was still a hammer. No matter how nimble a hammer was, it couldn't compare to the nimbleness of a sword.
Therefore, Tong Lie didn't have the ability to retaliate.
Tong Lie's body flickered between the gaps of the sword Qi. Although he wasn't in a sorry state, he wasn't in a good state either.
"Is Su Yun trying to finish him in one go?"
"He's been so strong since the beginning of the stage. He doesn't give his opponent any chance to retaliate. Is he feeling guilty?"
"Tong Lie hasn't really attacked yet."
Sure enough, Tong Lie began to exert his strength not long after this person finished speaking.
An astonishing aura rose from the pitch-black Square Hammer, and with a swing, it forced the Heaven Seizing Sword to retreat a little.
Of course, Su Yun wasn't going to stop there. He moved even faster and his sword became sharper.
Tong Lie's face turned serious. He took two steps back and didn't try to dodge Su Yun's attack. Qi surged around him as he swung the square hammer at Su Yun with incredible force. It weighed more than 500 kilograms!
Su Yun was shocked, he had no choice but to retract his sword, the tip of the sword pierced into the stage, his body borrowed the force, and narrowly dodged the earth-shattering hammer, but his body was like a small boat in the middle of a storm, constantly being blown away by the astral wind.
"A half-step Spiritual Grandmaster is indeed powerful!"
"I'm afraid Su Yun is going to suffer."
"Someone who's not even in the top 50 is challenging someone who's ranked 20th. I don't know why Tong Lie would accept the challenge."
"Maybe he wants to take Su Yun down a notch."
"It's time for him to pay for his arrogance."
Seeing the sudden change in the situation, the audience began to murmur among themselves.
"Is the gap between them really that big?" Xu Qian didn't think so.
"He must have seen this coming since he dared to challenge you. Don't worry." Despite what Night As Fire said, he couldn't help feeling worried for Su Yun.
Su Yun somersaulted horizontally a few times, and finally, both of his feet touched the ground and stabilized his body.
Su Yun didn't say anything. He simply held the Sky-seizing Sword in front of him without any fear.
This time, Tong Lie didn't give him the chance to strike first. He raised the square hammer and slammed it down on the ground. A powerful wave of energy rushed toward Su Yun as a crack appeared in the arena.
Su Yun's face hardened. Holding the hilt with both hands, he lowered his body and stabbed the Sky-seizing Sword into the arena. Sword energy swept across the ground like a tornado.
"Boom … …" Stone fragments flew everywhere.
"So strong!"
"I didn't think that Su Yun would be this strong!"
A Boy In A Black Robe, who was outside the Cultivation Tower, also put away his careless attitude.
After that attack, Tong Lie's figure disappeared from his original spot. A gust of wind blew toward him. Su Yun didn't dare to be careless. He suddenly stood up and swung the Sky-seizing Sword, sending out a wave of Sword Qi.
With a loud boom, a powerful wave of spiritual energy rushed out.
Strength Breaks All Techniques! Those who used hammers all understood this principle!
This hammer wasn't affected by Su Yun's casual attack. It continued to fly toward Su Yun.
"Will he be able to take it?"
"Strength Breaks All Techniques. Su Yun is in danger."
That hammer quickly attacked under the cover of the two attacks. Su Yun couldn't dodge it. Moreover, it was obvious that he couldn't take it head on!
Su Yun's expression did not change, the Heaven Seizing Sword was stabbed into the ground, both of his hands were raised horizontally, the spirit energy around his body surged out, he pulled open a bow, his palms moving slowly, it looked slow, but it was actually extremely fast, to the point that it gave people the illusion that it was very slow.
The spiritual energy turned into a whirlpool. Like a tornado, it spun faster and faster, bringing with it the sound of wind.
Tong Lie's Square Hammer had already arrived. It fiercely smashed down, but it miraculously stopped three meters away from Su Yun. Astral wind and spiritual energy shook at the same time, creating a deep ravine in the arena.
Between the two, there was an extremely dense and powerful spiritual energy that was rapidly spinning! The two were in a deadlock. It was as if time had stopped at this moment.
"This … … What's going on?"
"What a strange move!"
No one noticed that A Boy In A Black Robe's eyes had already lit up.
