Looking at everyone's gazes, Zhou Xingwen said calmly, "Xingjian is going into seclusion, so he won't be coming over. However, he has brought you a letter."
"Oh? Has he surrendered? " When Tian Yi heard this, he felt that it was only natural. To him, he was the world's number one, and there was no way for Fang Xingjian to win against him. What else could he do if he did not surrender?
However, it did not matter to him. He merely said, "I heard that Fang Xingjian is the number one swordsman in the Great Western Region and wanted to spar with him to verify my path of cultivation. However, I've already attained a new breakthrough. Even if he were to come and fight it out with me, it would just be boring. It doesn't matter whether we fight or not. "
Hearing that Fang Xingjian did not even dare to come over, everyone's gazes were filled with surprise. As for him going into seclusion to cultivate, they felt that it was just an excuse.
If someone were to come over to challenge you and you did not come out to accept it, then wouldn't you be throwing away your reputation and status?
Moreover, the challenger was not some random nobody but Tian Yi, who had defeated almost the entire Great Western City.
In everyone's opinion, Fang Xingjian was avoiding the battle.
Hildebrand looked at this scene in disbelief. To think that Fang Xingjian, who seemed to be extremely powerful and had unfathomable sword arts, was avoiding the battle! This was unbelievable!
Although the power Tian Yi had displayed earlier was very strong, it could not be said to be completely superior to Number 10's evil will. Hildebrand could not understand why Fang Xingjian would choose to avoid the battle.
Hoult shook his head and said, "I had thought that Fang Xingjian's sword arts had always been advancing bravely and courageously, advancing with indomitable will. To think that there would be times when he would be afraid."
Thinking of this, he could not help but sigh, "I had thought that in this generation's Great Western Region, he and I are the main characters. In the end, Tian Yi appeared out of nowhere and snatched away our glory."
Just as everyone thought that Fang Xingjian was avoiding the battle, Zhou Xingwen continued to walk toward Tian Yi and said, "I don't know what Xingjian means either, but he asked me to personally hand this letter to you."
"Letter? I'm not interested in Fang Xingjian. " Tian Yi shook his head and said, "I'll be heading to the Myriad Stars Palace next to discuss the path of cultivation with the Astral Ancestor."
When everyone heard that Tian Yi wanted to head to the Myriad Stars Palace to discuss the path of cultivation with the Astral Ancestor, they were all extremely astonished. Hoult also smiled and said in a clear voice, "Our Myriad Stars Palace is going to hold the Myriad Stars Ceremony and has already invited The School of Sword Arts' previous Supreme Chief, Sword Zhan Hongchen, as well as the Ancient Path of Hell's current Sect Master, the Abyss Lord, as well as the Eight Directional Crimson Dragon's leader to have an exchange on the path of Knight cultivation. Grandmaster is also very impressed by Brother Tianyi's talent. Therefore, he invited Brother Tianyi to join him for an exchange. "
Hoult's grandmaster was the Astral Ancestor, the previous Supreme Chief of The School of Sword Arts who had been training in seclusion all this time, the current Supreme Chief, Heng Tianxiao's master, Sword Slash of the Secular World, the Ancient Path of Hell's Abyss Lord, and the Eight Directional Crimson Dragon's leader. The four of them were all part of the Empire's ten great Divine level experts.
Hearing that they were going to meet and that they had even invited Tian Yi over for an exchange, everyone's gazes toward Tian Yi changed.
To them, Tian Yi's value had skyrocketed.
However, Zhou Xingwen seemed as if he did not hear them and continued to walk toward Tian Yi. Tian Yi frowned and said, "Didn't I say that if you believe me, I won't read it.
"But Xingjian said that I must hand the letter to you personally."
Seeing how stubborn Zhou Xingwen was, Tian Yi laughed out loud, shook his head, and said a little impatiently, "Alright, I want to see what this Fang Xingjian has written for me to have to read it personally."
As he spoke, he appeared before Zhou Xingwen with a flash. His speed was so fast that it was astonishing.
Then with a flash of his left hand, he grabbed out toward the letter in Zhou Xingwen's hand. However, even though it was such a simple process, he came to an abrupt halt.
It was because as he continued to stretch out his hand, Tian Yi sensed an extremely great pressure descending from the heavens, pressing down on his heart.
It was not something real like gravity or a human's pushing force. Instead, it was a purely psychological pressure pressing down on Tian Yi's heart, as if there was a huge mountain pressing down on it.
'Hmph, trying to play with my will? '
Tian Yi's consciousness condensed slightly, and a gush of martial will exploded, causing that heavy feeling to slowly dissipate. However, it did not dissipate for long. As his hand once again got close to the letter, that heavy feeling grew stronger.
This time around, he was not the only one who felt this heavy feeling. Everyone within a range of over ten meters also felt waves of pressure coming from the bottom of their hearts.
'What a powerful will. '
Tian Yi sensed how powerful the will contained in the letter was. He no longer held back and unleashed all of his martial will explosively, extending one of his hands out toward the letter at an accelerated speed.
This round was a clash between Tian Yi's and Fang Xingjian's martial wills across space.
Everyone within a range of 100 meters seemed to feel their hearts pounding. Over half of them felt as if there was a mountain pressing down on their heads, and with a bang, they dropped to their knees. They were unable to exert any strength or stand up.
Tian Yi, who had received the letter, felt the heaviness of the situation even more deeply.
If it could be said that there had only been a mountain pressing down on his heart earlier, then right now, he felt as if there was a huge mountain range pressing down on his body.
His body trembled incessantly, and beads of sweat formed on his forehead. He slowly dropped to his knees, inch by inch.
'You want me to kneel down to you?
'It's impossible even if you come personally, let alone a letter? '
The Stalwart Eidolon Conviction was something that would become stronger the more persistent one was. Not only did the pressure brought about by Fang Xingjian's letter not crush Tian Yi, it even aroused the pride in his heart. Tian Yi's martial will grew stronger once again, reaching almost 120% effectiveness. He managed to stand up straight despite the extremely heavy pressure in his heart.
After forcefully withstanding the impact of Fang Xingjian's will, Tian Yi exhaled softly and smiled coldly as he looked at the letter before him.
Then, with a move of his finger, he opened the envelope and took out the letter.
The letter was empty, with only four words written by the edge of a sword.
He had to be convinced!
An explosive boom rang out, and as the four words appeared before Fang Xingjian's eyes, an extremely tremendous pressure came gushing forth. There were no powers that interfered with the physical world. It was purely a collision of martial wills and an attack of information currents.
However, if it had been a stretch of mountain range earlier, then right now, it was as if the entire land was pressing down on him.
Tian Yi let out a furious bellow, but he continued to drop to his knees. However, when his knees were one inch away from the ground, he forcefully stopped.
He gritted his teeth, and all the muscles throughout his body trembled crazily. Under the crazy reinforcement from the Stalwart Eidolon Conviction, his will reached 140%.
Roar!
He tore fiercely with both hands, tearing Fang Xingjian's letter into pieces.
However, with this, the pressure did not lessen.
Countless sword light flashed, moving back and forth at the spot where the letter had disappeared. The sword light formed four big words, and each word was bright. They soared into the air, lighting up the area within a range of 1,000 meters.
A terrifying pressure came gushing forth. If it could be said that the pressure earlier was like a mound, a mountain range, or the earth, then right now, as the four big words formed by the sword light came gushing forth, it was as if the entire sky had collapsed.
Mountains and earth could explode and shatter, but what could one do when the entire sky came pressing down?
"Ahhh!"
With an agonizing cry, Tian Yi dropped to his knees, bleeding from his seven apertures. Simultaneously, as the four big words soared into the air, banging sounds rang out incessantly, and rows of people dropped to their knees. Within a few seconds, everyone who had come to watch this battle, regardless of whether they were men or women, young or old, had dropped to their knees. Only Zhou Xingwen, who had sent the letter, remained standing in the middle. However, his expression was that of a dazed one.
In the distance, Hoult also dropped to his knees, looking at the four big words in the sky in a daze. "Can't I be convinced?" In that instant, he felt as if his body had been pierced through by countless sharp swords, and he was in so much pain that his countenance turned pale.
The surroundings of the arena fell silent, and only the four big words shone in the sky. Tian Yi looked at the four big words in the sky with bloodshot eyes, looking extremely embarrassed and furious. He let out a furious bellow, wanting to stand up. However, no matter how he moved, no matter how much he unleashed his martial will explosively, it was as if the sky had collapsed and was pressing down on him. That tremendous psychological pressure caused him to be unable to move at all, let alone stand up.
Such a psychological blow would be destructive even to ordinary people, let alone to someone like Tian Yi, who had cultivated the Stalwart Eidolon Conviction.
Finally, accompanied by a heart-wrenching and agonizing cry, Tian Yi's vision turned black, and he fainted.
On this day, countless people in the Great Western City could only choose to drop to their knees in submission when faced with the terrifying sword intent that could not be fended off and defied.
