After reaching the sixth level of Qi Refining, converting spiritual energy into true qi to attack his acupoints wasn't as easy as it had been in the beginning.
At this moment, the sword qi in his dantian gave Li Qingshan a huge inspiration. He tried to merge the sword qi into his true qi to forcefully open his meridians and attack his acupoints. He never imagined that he would actually succeed.
His own true qi was extremely pure, and with the help of the sword qi in his dantian, he no longer faced any bottlenecks on the path of Qi Refining. As expected, the Cursive Sword Tome was extraordinary.
Liu Chuanfeng watched as Li Qingshan took a step out of the corridor, the cloud rapidly gathering beneath his feet. The speed at which he executed his magical technique was astonishing.
"Where are you going?"
"To find Chu Tian, of course. It's best if I take back those spirit stones." Li Qingshan waved his hand without even turning his head. Little Ann leapt onto the cloud.
I'll let you have three moves. With a whoosh, the cloud left a long tail behind it as it sped away.
On the Confucian Island of Virtuous Virtue, the Buddhists had a forest of pagodas, while the Confucians had a forest of steles.
On the Confucian Island of Virtuous Virtue, the Buddhists had a forest of pagodas, while the Confucians had a forest of steles.
Chu Tian and a group of Confucian disciples sat in front of a large stele, impatiently listening to the professor recount the past. What dogshit Virtuous Virtue? How could he compare to a Celestial?
Chu Tian watched as the professor suddenly stopped talking and looked behind him. When he turned his head, his eyes went wide. He saw Li Qingshan leaning against a stone stele, smiling at him. He didn't seem depressed or resentful because of his defeat. In fact, he even waved his hand as if he were greeting an old friend.
Furthermore, he was also in the seventh level of Qi Refining. Just like him. This greatly disappointed Chu Tian, who had hoped to see Li Qingshan look like a defeated dog. Ignoring the fact that he was in the middle of a lecture, he suddenly stood up.
"Li Qingshan!"
"It's about time. Let's call it a day." The professor looked up at the sky. He didn't want to offend a genius like Chu Tian, who was currently in the limelight. In any case, not many people were willing to listen.
The confucian disciples gathered around Chu Tian and gazed at Li Qingshan nearby. Their gazes were filled with contempt and disdain. Chapter 46:
I'll let you have three moves.
Chu Tian said, "You still dare to come?"
Li Qingshan said, "Why wouldn't I dare?"
"What do you want? Could it be that you're here to admit defeat? That's more like a man, calling me boss. From now on, we … "
"Have you ever beaten me?"
Li Qingshan's interruption enraged Chu Tian. He pointed at Li Qingshan, "Don't think that I can't do anything to you just because you're acting like a shameless dog."
Li Qingshan said, "How about it? Do you want me to give you a chance and let you win?"
"So it's like that. Alright, I agree. I'm just afraid that you'll run away with your tail between your legs again!" Chu Tian sneered. The Confucian disciples roared with laughter.
Li Qingshan stretched out four fingers and said, "This time, let's bet this number. Four thousand spiritual stones! "
The laughter stopped. The Confucian disciples who came to listen to this lecture were all new disciples. In their entire lives, they had never seen so many spirit stones. They couldn't help but be frightened by this number. Chu Tian was also stunned.
Li Qingshan said, "What? Don't you have that many spirit stones? Do you want me to lend them to you? "
"Alright. Since you want to give me spirit stones, how could I not agree?" Chu Tian sneered. His heart was filled with wild joy. He was filled with absolute confidence. He had already comprehended the Five Elements Grand Palm to an extremely deep level. Because he cultivated five types of true qi, the five elements supported each other. His true qi was more than ten times that of an ordinary seventh layer Qi Practitioner. How could he lose?
"The same place and time. Let's set it to three days from now. Otherwise, we'll run into some trouble and let a villain get carried away!"
"This time, I'll make you accept your defeat wholeheartedly," Chu Tian said fiercely. Not only did he want to win, he wanted to ruthlessly humiliate Li Qingshan. He wanted him to understand the difference between a mortal and a genius.
… …
Three days later, on the Great Martial Arts Field of the School of the Military.
This was Li Qingshan's first time coming to War Island. The Great Martial Arts Field was like a giant wrestling ring. However, there weren't any densely packed seats. Instead, there were tall platforms of different heights erected in the surroundings. These were the places to watch the martial arts. From afar, the levels were distinct and rather rhythmic. There wasn't the slightest bit of disorder. It was clearly the work of the School of Mohism's architects.
Chu Tian stood with his hands behind his back. His white clothes fluttered in the wind. Although he couldn't be considered handsome, he was filled with a powerful aura in the eyes of the bystanders.
The surrounding tall platforms were filled with people. Such a grand bet had already attracted the attention of the entire Hundred Schools of Thought.
Figures could also be vaguely seen standing on the few VIP seats at the highest point.
Wang Pushi looked up at the sun. The time was almost here.
However, Li Qingshan hadn't arrived yet. The other spectator stands were in a heated discussion.
On one of the tall platforms, a group of legalist disciples were either sitting or standing. Among them, there was no lack of familiar faces that Li Qingshan recognized.
"Why isn't that guy here yet? Don't tell me he's scared again! "
"He's giving away several thousand spiritual stones in a single go. Why haven't I encountered a good opponent like him before?"
"Stop talking. He's the primary disciple of the school of Novels. You can't afford to offend him!" Wu Gen said extremely seriously.
It led to a series of laughter. Wu Gen smiled too. He thought he was complacent.
"Rongzhi, how much did you bet this time?"
Qian Rongzhi said, "The same as last time."
"The same? You won't? " Last time, Qian Rongzhi had bet on Li Qingshan and lost quite a lot of spiritual stones, so Wu Gen had mocked Li Qingshan greatly. He never thought she would bet like that again this time, which left Wu Gen rather annoyed.
Right now, she had quite a few pursuers in the Hundred Schools of Thought. She even seemed to have a rather ambiguous relationship with the genius Chu Tian, but she remained distant from him the entire time.
Wang Pushi lowered his head and asked Hwa Seung-zan beside him, "How much did you bet this time?"
Hwa Seung-zan sat on the edge of the stands and extended two fingers without even looking back. "Two thousand. I have to make up for what I lost last time!"
Wang Pushi said, "You trust him that much?"
Hwa Seung-zan smiled. "I lost this time, but I'll bet four thousand next time."
"He's coming! He's coming!" There were calls from below, and everyone raised their heads.
A cloud with a long tail flew over, sweeping past a tall tower. Little Ann leapt off and landed beside the One Thought master. The One Thought master looked at his primary disciple he had not seen in quite some time with a bitter smile, but he had no idea whether to criticize or praise him. At least there was someone beside him now.
It was an unwritten rule among the Hundred Schools of Thought that only the primary disciple could stand beside the school leader. Although the highest platform was very empty, there could not be more than two people on it at most.
Hwa Seung-zan said, "Old Wang, were you this fast in the past?"
"My talent in the water element is only at the B level." Wang Pushi could use the Ice Hell, so he was obviously familiar with the most practical water element technique. However, even he had not been this fast when he was at the tenth layer.
"This speed doesn't seem like it's just high A," Hwa Seung-zan said in thought.
The formations for testing elemental attributes only targeted Qi Practitioners. High A was already an extremely rare talent, so there was no point in setting it any higher.
After reaching the second layer of the Spirit Turtle's Method of Sea Suppression, Li Qingshan's senses for the water element had increased drastically, which was why he could sense the snow falling outside from his dwelling in seclusion. Just like the Ox Demon's Fist of Great Strength and the Tiger Demon's Fist of Bone Forging, the Spirit Turtle's Method of Sea Suppression gradually changed his constitution.
Using a human formation to test the water element of a spirit turtle was just a joke, wasn't it? The spirit turtle was water itself. No, it was the ruler of water.
After letting go of Little Ann, the cloud stabbed down. It did not slow down at all, rushing straight towards the ground.
With a boom, the cloud dispersed and dust rose into the air.
Yu Zijian felt her right hand tighten. She saw that Hua Chenglu was extremely nervous.
"Are you worried about him?" Yu Zijian asked softly.
"Idiot, I bet a lot of spiritual stones!" Hua Chenglu stared into the dust and could vaguely make out a figure standing upright. Only then did she stop worrying.
When the dust dispersed, Li Qingshan stood with his arms crossed. He smiled faintly, and his bronze face radiated with great confidence. His green robes, which were supposed to be very elegant, gave off a strong aura when he wore them.
At this moment, the timing was perfect.
The host of the duel, the military spider, Han Anjun, said, "During the duel, no pills, talismans, puppets, or spiritual stones are allowed. Once you break the rules, you'll be judged as having lost immediately."
This was the rule of the duels of the academy. The duelists mostly competed in terms of martial arts and skill, increasing the intensity of the competition. It was not a battle to the death.
Once they used external objects, it would become a pointless battle of attrition, wasting tremendous resources for nothing. This was not something the academy approved of. The reason why the school leader, Han Anjun, had been chosen as the referee was to ensure that the duel could be stopped at crucial moments and avoid casualties.
After a simple explanation of the rules, Han Anjun cut right to the chase. "Do you have any objections?"
"No." "No."
"Begin!"
The giant lumberman, Wood Kui, wielded a huge hammer and struck the gong that was even taller than him.
A thunderous sound rang through the entire island, startling the birds. The duel began.
Chu Tian said, "And I thought you were going to avoid the battle again? Hmph, in consideration of how many spiritual stones you've given me, let's begin. I'll give you three moves. "
Swish! Swish!
Swish! Without another word, Li Qingshan shot out three water arrows, but they did not even penetrate Chu Tian's protective true qi. Water techniques were not known for their offensive power, and he did not even use his full strength.
"Courtesy demands reciprocity. I'll give you three moves as well. Make your move!"
Chu Tian was furious. He had never thought he would still dare to play tricks on him. Sharp golden light lit up in his hand, and like a blade, he slashed out. He bellowed, "Golden Crescent Slash!"
An extremely sharp half-moon-shaped golden light whizzed through the air.
"One move." Li Qingshan took half a step back and naturally moved his body to the side. The Golden Crescent Slash brushed past him, but he was completely unharmed.
Before he could even turn around, he felt a tremor beneath his feet.
"Single Log!" Chu Tian's voice rang out Just Now. His right foot flickered with green light as he stomped on the ground.
A huge log broke out of the ground with a boom, rushing into the air.
"Two moves." Li Qingshan leapt up gently and stomped down. The huge log shattered with a boom.
Waves of heat rushed over, and the flames dyed Li Qingshan's face red.
