Seeing this scene, Claude's countenance changed. The next moment, Fang Xingjian's longsword swept out once again, bringing along tens of flying swords as he charged towards the remaining eight members of Class 253.
The blue-haired swordsman bellowed, "Everyone, use your Force Field to block at full power! Leader, you …"
"I'll stop this lad." Claude let out a loud bellow, activating his job's technique. Streams of bronze-colored air currents encompassed his body, making it seem as if he was wearing a layer of golden armor.
In the next moment, the two axes in his hands trembled fiercely, activating the Killing technique Tornado of Massacre. His entire body started to spin crazily, and a myriad of axe shadows filled up every inch of space on his body. He brought along a tornado as he clashed fiercely against Fang Xingjian.
A series of clanging sounds rang out continuously. Claude was like a berserk lion, transforming into a massacre tornado, slashing out in all directions with his axes. Each strike tore through the strong gales, bringing along waves of sharp aura.
Fang Xingjian was like an omnipresent tempest. Countless sword Qis and longswords danced in the air, surrounding Claude and his teammates behind him.
Fang Xingjian himself was hidden within the tempest, making it impossible for others to see his figure.
At the start, Claude was still able to rely on his over 70 agility and reaction to continuously disperse Fang Xingjian's sword Qis. However, as the Supreme Mistwind Sword continued to be performed, Fang Xingjian's speed increased rapidly, and Claude was soon unable to react. More and more sword Qis slashed onto his body, clashing against that bronze-colored aura, creating the sound of metal clashing.
'Damn it, the Supreme Mistwind Sword still has such a move?'
The sounds of explosions became increasingly concentrated, and in the end, Claude felt as if he was surrounded by countless people, with thousands of longswords piercing towards his body at every moment. He decided not to defend anymore, but curled up, relying solely on his job's techniques to fend off the attacks.
Finally, as if his endurance and accumulation had reached an extreme, with a loud rumble, Claude's body stretched out like a bomb. Violent Qis, accompanied by the full eruption of his physical body and Reduced Force Field, turned into layers of transparent ripples that bounced out in all directions.
At the same time, several tens of longswords, wrapped in Fang Xingjian's sword Qis, pierced towards Claude with all their might. They broke through the layers of shockwaves released by Claude, and after a series of frenzied tremors, all of them pierced into Claude's body.
In the next moment, Claude's entire body, including his forehead, neck, chest, back, and limbs, were pierced by numerous swords.
However, the entire stabbing motion only lasted for less than a second before all the swords could no longer withstand the series of pressure and exploded into countless fragments.
Although the longsword did not pierce Claude's body, countless forces directly followed the longsword and hit his body, penetrating into his internal organs.
How precise was Fang Xingjian's control over the force when he wielded his sword? Moreover, he had trained in thirty-one sets of Nurturing sword techniques, and his control over his muscles, bones, and internal organs was at a textbook level. The moment the force entered his body, Claude felt as if his internal organs had exploded in that instant. He spat out a mouthful of blood and knelt down on the ground.
He exhaled and said furiously, "Hmph, if my Mystic Armor Golden Body could be trained to level 10, my internal organs would be as tough as steel. This move of yours wouldn't have been able to break me."
Fang Xingjian's body slowly floated down before him, countless gusts of strong gales flying to and fro behind him. As he walked, the gales passed by Claude's body inch by inch, as if Claude was his pet.
"If I wanted to kill you, you'd be long dead."
After saying this, without waiting for Claude's reaction, Fang Xingjian had already arrived before the remaining members of Class 253.
Claude turned back and saw that other than the blue-haired swordsman and the other four sword-wielding Knights, the rest of them had already fainted and lost consciousness.
At the same time that Fang Xingjian had defeated Claude, he had also broken through the defense of his teammates.
If they had unleashed their Reduced Force Fields at full power, it would have been very difficult for Fang Xingjian to break through them.
However, they were not the same person, and there would definitely be gaps between their teamwork. Wherever their Reduced Force Fields covered, there would be strong and weak ones, sometimes strong and sometimes weak. Faced with Fang Xingjian's sword Qis which penetrated through every single opening, as well as the speed of his sword which they were unable to react to, failure was the only possibility.
Claude's countenance turned grim. Originally, when he was dealing with Fang Xingjian, due to the absolute difference in speed, he had been in a situation where he could only take a beating without being able to retaliate. Now that he realized that Fang Xingjian's sword techniques were so exquisite, it meant that when Fang Xingjian had said earlier that if he wanted to kill him, he'd be long dead, he'd be long dead.
Fang Xingjian looked at the remaining four sword-wielding Knights, and with a shake of his sword, he said, "Come at me together."
...
On the cliff, Huang Lin laughed out loud, "I'm sorry, everyone. It's only been eight minutes, right? Seems like I've won this round. "
"You old rascal," Netherworld Valley's Tina said in displeasure, "You've long known of Fang Xingjian's abilities, haven't you? That's why you provoked us to bet with you. "
"Hehe, so what if I've long known?" Huang Lin smiled, "If I'd said that he'd be able to defeat ten Knights single-handedly, would any of you have believed me?"
Everyone exchanged glances. They knew that if Huang Lin had said this earlier on, it would have been very hard for them to believe it as well. After all, to think that a Knight who had only transitioned for a month would be able to defeat ten Knights who had transitioned for three years.
This information was too shocking. All the geniuses who had appeared in history had left their names in the annals of history, and some had even become Divine level characters in the end.
This was especially so for Fang Xingjian's control of sword Qis earlier, which had displayed an unprecedented level of exquisite sword arts, the Supreme Mistwind Sword which had broken through all limits.
At this moment, the gazes they used to look at Fang Xingjian were still different. Their eyes were filled with astonishment, envy, jealousy, and all sorts of other emotions. They suddenly realized that they might be witnessing the beginning of a legend, as long as Fang Xingjian did not fall midway.
Of course, the expressions of those who had lost the bet did not look good either.
Netherworld Valley's Tina's face twitched. Their valley specialized in using poison to detoxify poisons, and each bottle of antidote they created was equivalent to a few lives. Even though she was an Elder in the faction, to hand over a hundred bottles at one go was a huge loss. How could she not feel the pinch?
Tina shook her head, "Sigh, why isn't this Fang Xingjian a student of our Netherworld Valley?"
Huang Lin said unhappily, "Your valley specializes in poison, not swords."
Tina smiled and said, "We can give him medicine every day to strengthen his body. Look at how strong Claude's body is."
Tresia Clan's clan head frowned slightly, his face looking even more distressed.
'Rebecca, that crazy old woman. This Fang Xingjian is so powerful. Seems like he won't be placated by Body Tempering Ointment …
'Should we get rid of him before he rises up? Or should we add more chips … and rope him over to our side? '
However, just thinking of the price they would have to pay for either of these two options made the distressed expression on his face even more intense. Only when he thought of Kaunitz did he relax a little.
'Thankfully, that person has taken a liking to Kaunitz. This way, we won't have to worry too much about Fang Xingjian becoming stronger …'
