"Feather duster?"
Ying Qin's body swayed.
The spear in my hand is a Spirit high-tier weapon forged from the Eastern Sea Mystic Jade. It is 2.3 meters long, and the tip of the spear is forged from the Cold Jade Essence. It possesses the effects of hypnosis and dizziness, capable of slicing through metal and jade.
Yet, you actually want to use a feather duster to fight me with such a powerful weapon?
That thing is made of ordinary bamboo, and it will snap into two with just a light touch. How is one supposed to fight with it?
Not only him, even Ruohuan gongzi was dumbfounded.
Using a feather duster to fight against a Spirit high-tier weapon? Zhang Shi … Aren't you going overboard by using such a method to humiliate your opponent?
But … why do I feel so happy about it?
"Alright, I'll head over right now!" Ruohuan gongzi's mouth widened in excitement as he dashed off to meet Zhang Xuan.
"You …"
Seeing the smug look on the other party's face, Ying Qin's face turned steely, and he felt as if his lungs were about to explode. "Zhang Shi, I sincerely challenge you to a duel, and since you've agreed to it, I hope that you can take it seriously. Humiliation isn't something a genius like you should do!"
"Humiliation?"
Zhang Xuan shook his head. "I really don't mean to humiliate you. Besides, you aren't qualified to be humiliated by me. The reason why I chose not to use a spear is because the spear art I practice is too powerful. I fear that I might accidentally impale you in a moment of carelessness. That would be troublesome. Even though the feather duster is a little weaker, it's easier to control and won't hurt you! "
He really didn't mean to humiliate the other party.
If he really wanted to humiliate the other party, he would be able to defeat him easily.
Using the feather duster was already giving him face.
"You …"
Ying Qin burst into laughter. Narrowing his eyes, he said, "Fine, fine. Let's see how you're going to impale me to death then!"
For a freshman to challenge a Grade-4 expert, not only was he not afraid, he even said that he would impale the other party to death … This made the rage in Ying Qin's heart surge uncontrollably.
In the midst of their conversation, Ruohuan gongzi took out a dozen feather dusters and tossed them onto the stage for Zhang Xuan to choose from.
Picking one up casually, Zhang Xuan turned to Ying Qin and pointed. "Alright, let's begin!"
"You are courting death!"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan was really going to use the feather duster to fight against him, Ying Qin roared furiously and charged forward with his spear.
The wind howled, and the energy was like a tiger, giving people a feeling that it was going to tear them apart.
The High-Grade Spirit Grade Spear was like an indestructible fortress. Under the infusion of zhenqi, it emitted a sharp piercing sound, making it hard for people to resist.
"So strong …"
Below the stage, Luo Xuan, Ruohuan gongzi, and the others narrowed their eyes.
Even though the young man before them had suppressed his cultivation to Cosmos Bridge realm pinnacle, his strength was still far beyond their means.
Putting everything aside, just this single move alone was enough to make Zhang Xuan invincible among Cosmos Bridge realm cultivators. However, at the same cultivation realm, more than ninety-nine percent of the master teachers in the academy would be unable to withstand it.
Even those in the early stage of the Consolidation Realm would have to avoid it and not dare to face it head-on.
It was so sharp, how could Zhang Shi block it?
Everyone turned to look at Zhang Xuan, only to see that his expression didn't change in the slightest in the face of such a powerful attack. Instead, he simply smiled and extended his left index and middle fingers.
Kacha!
Just like that, the incomparably powerful Spirit Grade Spear was caught between his two fingers.
It was as if the fearsome Spirit Grade Spear had fallen into a quagmire. No matter how it struggled, it was unable to move at all.
Pah pah pah pah!
With the spear in hand, Zhang Xuan raised the feather duster and began whipping Ying Qin's face furiously.
In the blink of an eye, the latter's face was already scarlet red.
"The heck … There's such a move as well?"
"Why does it feel like an adult beating a child?"
"Indeed … Isn't this battle a little too simple?"
…
The crowd below was stunned.
Everyone had been shocked by Ying Qin's spear art, thinking that it would be impossible for him to withstand it. Who could have thought that … before it could even reach him, it would be caught between two fingers by Zhang Shi?
It was as if Ying Qin was trapped. Even with a feather duster, Zhang Xuan would be able to pummel the spear furiously.
They thought that it would be a fierce battle, but who could have thought that … it would be a one-sided slaughter!
"AHHH!"
Ying Qin didn't expect the other party to have such a good eye of discernment and strength. For his incomparably sharp spear to be caught so easily, the more he thought about it, the more anxious he felt. He bellowed, "Let go!"
At the same time, the zhenqi in his body surged as he exerted all of his strength to pull the spear back.
If he didn't pull the spear back, he would be in a passive position.
"You want it? Here … "
Seeing that the other party was exerting more and more strength to pull the spear back, Zhang Xuan chuckled as he released his grip.
Deng deng deng deng!
Ying Qin's strength suddenly vanished. He had exerted too much strength, and he couldn't help but retreat a few steps. Due to his lack of control over his strength, he ended up leaving a series of footprints on the ground.
"Great! Lie down for me! "
Even though he was in a tight spot, Ying Qin's confidence was boosted once more. With a flick of his wrist, the spear whistled as it flew toward the young man before him.
Previously, he had tried to stab the spear, but the other party had caught it. Now that he had switched to a flick, there shouldn't be a problem, right?
Just as Ying Qin was thinking of a way to flip the young man over, the other party's figure suddenly flickered once more. The next moment, two fingers appeared out of nowhere and grabbed the spear.
"What's going on …"
Ying Qin's body swayed weakly.
How did the other party manage to grab hold of the spear so quickly?
This was simply impossible!
However, the other party didn't give him any time to think about it. The feather duster flew right at his face once more.
Even though it was only a bamboo pole, it was infused with the other party's zhenqi, making it even more painful than a leather whip. With just a few strikes, his face was already lacerated, and his body was drenched in blood.
"Damn it …"
Despite being of the same cultivation realm as him, to be whipped by a feather duster to the point where his face was drenched in blood, Ying Qin felt as if he was going insane. He exerted all of his strength into his arms and leaped upward.
He exerted all of his strength, but just as his zhenqi was about to explode, the other party's strength suddenly vanished once more.
Huala!
Unable to control his zhenqi, Ying Qin was forced to retreat. However, before he could even regain his balance, Zhang Xuan had already appeared before him once more, grabbed hold of the spear, and swung the feather duster wildly once more.
"What the heck …"
Ying Qin was on the verge of tears.
Growing to where he was now, he had sparred with innumerable people. How could he possibly have such a duel?
As soon as the spear was drawn, the other party would rush over to grab hold of it and smash it around. As soon as he tried to pull back, the other party would dissipate his zhenqi, causing him to lose his balance and charge right back at him …
How could this be?
Can't you just spar properly?
"Ahhh …"
The more he thought about it, the more furious he felt. His chest was burning furiously like a raging inferno.
Hong long!
Unable to control the zhenqi that he had been suppressing in his body any longer, he abruptly broke free of its shackles, allowing him to achieve a breakthrough in his cultivation.
Perfect Harmonization realm primary stage! Perfect Harmonization realm intermediate stage … Ethereal Treading realm pinnacle!
In the blink of an eye, the seal on his cultivation was lifted, and he regained his original strength.
After regaining his strength, he turned to look at Zhang Shi once more, only to see that the other party had already retreated several meters away. With the feather duster in hand, the other party looked at him impassively and asked, "Are you going to admit defeat?"
"Admit defeat? Impossible! In the previous battle, I realized that your strength isn't just at Cosmos Bridge realm pinnacle … If I were to regain my Ethereal Treading realm cultivation, do you dare to face me? "
Ying Qin gritted his teeth.
It was just a moment ago that he had been pummeled, so how could he admit defeat just like that?
Besides, the other party was able to grab hold of his spear so easily, preventing him from escaping. Since that was the case, it wouldn't be considered bullying him if he didn't suppress his strength anymore.
"Alright then!" Zhang Xuan nodded.
He had allowed Ying Qin to use his full strength earlier, but the other party insisted on suppressing his strength. This was a good opportunity for him to test his own strength as well.
"Let's begin!"
In any case, it didn't matter whether the other party suppressed his strength or not, so Zhang Xuan didn't mind at all. He raised the feather duster in his hand and pointed it at Ying Qin.
"Wait a moment!"
Seeing Zhang Xuan's actions, Ying Qin recalled how he had been pummeled earlier, and his body trembled in fear. Gritting his teeth, he said, "I want to spar with you. Your feather duster is too short, so it's a close combat battle. Can you spar with me using your spear? "
The other party had grabbed hold of his spear and whipped it around in close combat. This wasn't a spar but a close combat battle.
Ying Qin's spear was more than two meters long, so it was only natural that he would be restricted from exerting his full strength. As a result, he ended up being pummeled by the other party.
He couldn't allow the other party to use a short weapon. Otherwise, even if he recovered his strength, he would still be pummeled like before.
"Close combat? Spear? " How could Zhang Xuan not understand what Ying Qin was getting at? Chuckling softly, he said, "You mean that … my feather duster is too short, so you want me to use a long weapon to fight with you?"
"That's right!" Ying Qin nodded.
"This … Alright then!" Zhang Xuan nodded. He turned to Ruohuan and said, "Help me connect these feather dusters together."
"Yes!"
Ruohuan gongzi nodded. He leaped onto the stage and tied the feather dusters together with a rope.
He took a dozen of them, and when they were all connected together, they reached a length of more than ten meters, reminiscent of a thin tree trunk.
He lifted up the feather dusters that were tied together. Countless feathers fluttered in the wind, as if a flagpole had been erected in front of everyone, creating a new and unconventional style.
"This should be long enough, right?"
Taking the pole, Zhang Xuan turned to Ying Qin.
"Of course!"
Ying Qin's eyes lit up.
Previously, due to the length of his spear, he was unable to utilize his full strength when the other party got close to him, resulting in him being pummeled so badly. Now that the feather duster was made to be more than ten meters long, how could he possibly win against the other party once the other party got close to him?
He would surely be pummeled to the ground to exact revenge for the humiliation he had suffered previously.
"If you lose this time, you have to admit it!"
Seeing that Ying Qin had agreed to it, Zhang Xuan chuckled. With a flick of his wrist, the 'super long spear' formed from the feather dusters fluttered in the wind.
"Of course not. However, you have to be careful. I won't lose that easily!"
Seeing how the 'super long spear' was more than ten meters long, Ying Qin's eyes lit up. He shook the spear and roared.
"Let's begin!"
Seeing how confident Ying Qin was, Zhang Xuan didn't say anything else. He raised the feather duster and pointed it into the clouds, as if a lightning rod connecting the heavens and the earth. At the same time, he raised his left hand and chuckled softly. "Come … I'll allow you to run thirty-nine meters first!"
