The other party had disguised himself, and his appearance and actions were completely different from those of the other core disciples. Unless the other party was forced to use his trump card or his true strength, it would be nigh impossible to see through his disguise!
It was just like how a top-notch hacker would be able to hack into the website of a private workshop without any pressure at all. There would definitely be no traces left behind, and no matter how hard one tried to investigate, it would be impossible to uncover the identity of the perpetrator. Unless … there were hackers of the same caliber surrounding the perpetrator. Only then would they be able to expose the identity of the perpetrator.
The moves that I Am Low Profile had used to kill the inner disciples were no different from swatting a mosquito. Even if she had a deep understanding of all the core disciples, she would not have been able to recognize the moves that I Am Low Profile had used against the inner disciples.
"But … we can't pressure him at all!"
Liu Lujie said with a bitter smile.
Wang Jiandong had charged forward, thinking that he would be able to force the other party to use his trump card, only to have his head lopped off. On the other hand, he had charged forward and been sliced in two. Even the first and third ranked inner disciples were unable to do it, let alone the others!
In just a few short minutes, the other party had killed more than two hundred inner disciples without even catching his breath. It was unlikely that he would be able to force the other party to use his trump card through sheer numbers.
After all, a trump card was extremely demanding on one's zhenqi and stamina. At the end of the fight, he would run out of energy, and he would not be able to execute it even if he was given the chance.
"Let me give it a try!"
Bai Ruanqing said with a hint of excitement in her eyes.
As a core disciple and the granddaughter of one of the Three Grand Elders, she possessed a deep understanding of swordsmanship despite her young age. The young man on the dueling platform was able to kill an inner disciple with a single swing of his sword, but the body that the Ethereal Hall had allocated to her had a limited zhenqi. It would be impossible for her to kill so many people without collapsing.
In other words, there was a good chance that the fellow on the dueling platform was even stronger than her. As a battle maniac, it went without saying that she wanted to test the other party's strength personally.
"Senior …"
Liu Lujie and Wang Jiandong glanced at one another awkwardly. "You are a core disciple. If you are discovered interfering in a battle between inner disciples …"
It was already unfair for so many of them to fight against the other party, and yet, they had even invited a core disciple over. If they were to be discovered, how could they face the other party?
They would die of embarrassment!
"I'll use your Ethereal Token. As long as the two of you don't say a word, no one will know!" Bai Ruanqing waved her hand grandly. "There's no need to say anything else. I'm only going up to test that fellow and force him to use his trump card to confirm his identity. As long as he was certain that Zhang Xuan wasn't a core disciple, he would admit defeat. I won't disrupt the battle between inner sect disciples! Of course, if it is confirmed that he is a core disciple, we will kill him directly. It is not against the rules! "
"This …"
After hesitating for a moment, Liu Lujie bowed deeply. "Then I'll have to trouble Senior Sister Bai!"
The other party was right. If they were only testing the other party's strength and not killing him, it was indeed not against the rules.
"Senior, be careful. That fellow's sword is swift," Wang Jiandong warned with a hushed voice.
"Fast? The thing I'm least afraid of is speed! To tell you the truth, when I was five years old, Grandpa Bai Feng taught me the [Heavy Snow Swordsmanship]. I practiced the sword in the snow, and every year, I would go to the extreme north and stay there for a month to temper myself. It has been a whole fifteen years now, and I have long cultivated it to the realm of mastery! With this sword technique, do you think I will be afraid of his speed? "
Bai Ruanqing placed her hands behind her back as pride gleamed in her eyes.
It was true that the other party was fast, but speed was her forte!
Otherwise, she would not have been able to shatter a core disciple's vitals with a single kick.
"Heavy Snow Swordsmanship?"
They knew that Bai Ruanqing was powerful, and her temper was even more fiery than her figure. However, they had no idea what kind of swordsmanship she practiced. Upon hearing the name, Liu Lujie and Wang Jiandong's eyes lit up.
The Heavy Snow Swordsmanship was famous in the sect. It was created by an elder more than a thousand years ago on a snowy day. Upon mastering it to the highest level, one would be able to execute six consecutive slashes in the instant a snowflake fell from the sky.
Without the six sides of the snowflake, it would be no different from a snowball. As such, the speed at which it fell would naturally increase, and it would no longer flutter in the air. This was why it was known as the Heavy Snow Swordsmanship.
Snow was extremely light, such that even the slightest breeze would be able to blow it away. To execute six consecutive slashes, not only did one have to control one's strength as finely as a strand of hair, one's speed was also unimaginable.
To cultivate this swordsmanship to Major Accomplishment, one's speed, control, and eye of discernment had already reached a level that they could not comprehend!
"Since Senior has cultivated this swordsmanship to Major Accomplishment, there's no way that I Am Low Profile will be a match for you!"
Liu Lujie bowed deeply once more and said earnestly, "Senior, I beseech you to stop after you've tested out his identity. Allow us inner disciples to kill him!"
No matter what, the other party had challenged the inner disciples, and he had humiliated so many of them. If Senior were to kill him, it would be a huge blow to their dignity.
"Don't worry, I'll leave him for you!"
Bai Ruanqing waved her hand impatiently as she picked up her sword and walked toward the dueling ring.
"The rest of you, hold back for a moment. I'm going to fight I Am Low Profile one-on-one!"
Bai Ruanqing said as she walked up the dueling ring.
As a core disciple, her understanding of swordsmanship far surpassed that of everyone else present. Even without making a move, she still exerted an indescribable pressure on the crowd.
"I don't know which Senior she is, but her cultivation isn't low. I can feel my Sword Intent being suppressed to the point that I can't move at all!"
"I feel the same way too. I might be an Ascetic Cultivator, but my swordsmanship isn't inferior to Senior Liu Lujie's at all!"
"Let's wait and see. Perhaps, I'll be able to kill that fellow and vent our anger!"
…
Hearing those words, the crowd, who had been intending to charge forward to encircle He Am Low Profile, hesitated for a moment, and nodded in agreement.
There were quite a few inner disciples who cultivated diligently and rarely showed themselves, so they did not have much of a reputation. However, if they were to display their true prowess, not even the top ten inner disciples would be a match for them!
Most likely, the female disciple who had just walked up the dueling ring and I Am Low Profile were both inner disciples. Otherwise, how else could one explain the sudden emergence of experts of such caliber from the inner disciples?
"If you want to make a move, hurry up! After I kill you, I'll have to kill the others!"
Seeing yet another arrogant person charging at him, Zhang Xuan shook his head.
It would be a waste of time to fight one on one.
"It's been a long time since I've seen such an arrogant person. You're courting death!"
Bai Ruanqing bellowed as she thrust her sword forward.
Heavy Snow Sword Art!
His first move was his strongest attack. The whistling sword Qi seemed to form a blizzard on the stage. Snowflakes fluttered in the air, making it hard for people to see clearly.
"What do you think? Is he faster than you? "
After executing her swordsmanship, Bai Ruanqing did not rush to attack. Instead, a confident smile crept onto her lips.
She showed off to Liu Lujie and the others, saying that she had mastered the Heavysnow Swordsmanship, but in reality, she was still lacking. She could not display such power every time.
This time, he had seen how the other party was able to kill inner disciples as easily as slaughtering chickens. Under the pressure, he had actually managed to achieve a breakthrough, allowing him to unleash a might that he might not even be able to unleash once out of ten times. Yet, he was able to use it successfully this time around. His heart was filled with excitement.
Had it been in the past, Zhang Xuan dared not say that he would be able to kill Zhang Xuan so easily. However, with the other party's sword qi and Sword Intent infused into his attack, victory should be a walk in the park!
"Fast?"
Zhang Xuan was taken aback for a moment before nodding his head. He was quite satisfied with the young lady before him. "Alright, I'm in a hurry!"
With that, he thrust his sword forward.
Puhe!
Just as Bai Ruanqing was about to block his attack, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in her throat. Following which, her eyes fell upon the back of her feet.
Putong!
A corpse fell to the ground.
"Forget it, this is too slow. Come at me together! No, the dueling ring is too small. Let me fight with you all! "
For Zhang Xuan, killing Bai Ruanqing was no different from killing an insignificant ant. Seeing that more and more inner disciples were gathering around him, he realized that he was far from being able to catch up to those who had rushed over upon hearing the news. With a bitter look on his face, he leaped into the crowd.
The dueling ring was simply too small. At most, it could only hold ten people at a time. Any more than that and it would be overcrowded. Even if he were to fight ten people at a time, it would take him a long time to kill all of the several thousand people in the hall.
Not to mention, there were still some who would try to play the hero and challenge him to a duel.
Since it was so troublesome, he might as well charge into the crowd.
"You're courting death!"
"Everyone, let's attack him together! I don't believe that he can grow ten arms!"
…
Who would have thought that the powerful Senior Bai Ruanqing would also be killed in a single breath? On top of that, I Am Low Profile even charged right at her? Everyone went into a frenzy.
Due to the small size of the dueling ring, no one was able to charge right into it. However, that fellow actually dashed right into the crowd. There were inner disciples all around him, and all of them wielded swords, allowing him to attack from all directions.
How in the world were they supposed to stop him?
No matter how fast he was, there was no way he could outrun twenty, thirty, fifty, or even a hundred swords!
Huala!
In an instant, all kinds of sword qi rained down like a storm.
"Senior Bai …"
Seeing how the female overlord of the core disciples was unable to withstand even a single blow from the Heavysnow Swordsmanship, Liu Lujie and Wang Jiandong felt as if they had gone insane.
They had been thinking of asking Bai Ruanqing to go easy on them, but from the looks of it, it seemed like the other party was no different from killing them. There was no pressure at all!
There was a good chance that the core disciples were Heavenly True Immortals.
Even if they were of the same cultivation realm, this fellow was still a little too overpowered!
"I have to admit that that fellow is indeed formidable, but he's simply too complacent and arrogant. I don't believe that he'll be able to withstand the simultaneous assault of so many people!"
Wang Jiandong exclaimed as he watched I Am Low Profile charge right into the crowd.
No matter how overpowered he was, there should be a limit to how powerful he could be!
To be surrounded by so many people at once, what else could he be other than courting death?
"I don't think he'll be able to withstand it."
Liu Lujie nodded. Clearly, he was not too optimistic about the other party's actions.
"Senior Lujie, there are so many people here. Should we make use of this opportunity to launch a sneak attack?"
A glint flashed across Wang Jiandong's eyes as he made a beheading gesture.
