The First Move
"Sh * t!" Ning Yue's expression changed drastically when he sensed the violent gust of wind in front of him.
This turn of events had obviously exceeded his expectations. He had not expected a powerful cultivator to be hiding in the surroundings.
Being able to hide from his senses meant that the other party's cultivation base was very high!
There was no time for him to think about these messy things. Ning Yue raised his right hand and a violent wave of Yuan Qi appeared in his palm. Then, with a piercingly cold murderous intent, it exploded.
To be on the safe side, Ning Yue had even wrapped his advanced-stage sixth-grade Soul Power and the Azure Spiritual Fire that he had not used for a long time around his fist.
Against a powerful cultivator, he had to give it his all. Otherwise, he would die a horrible death.
Crack!
In the next moment, the two fists collided and a crisp sound rang out in the area.
After the attack, Ning Yue hurriedly took a few steps back. He glared at the grey-robed elder and said in a deep voice, "Who are you!"
Although it was a hasty exchange, Ning Yue could basically tell that the elder before him was very powerful. His cultivation base was at least in the mid-stage of the Manifestation Realm!
However, Ning Yue was a little confused. Logically speaking, it was difficult for a mid-stage Manifestation Realm cultivator to hide from his senses. Could there be another cultivator hiding in the void?
"Hehe, it doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that you have offended Young Master Mu Tian, so you must pay the price." The grey-robed elder laughed sinisterly, "I'll give you two choices now. One, cripple your own hands, kneel down and admit your mistake. Two …"
"Pei Wen, stop talking. No matter what, I will take Ning Yue's life today!" Mu Tian interrupted the grey-robed elder with a vicious expression.
"Young Master Mu Tian, this kid is protected. You can't kill him."
The grey-robed man called Pei Wen purposely lowered his voice and said, "Don't go overboard. Otherwise, we might die at Danwu College."
"Impossible!" Hearing this, Mu Tian's eyes widened as he said coldly, "Elder Hu is a pinnacle expert. Not to mention Danwu College, even in the entire Great Xia Kingdom, there is no one who can go against him."
"Although you don't believe me, it is the truth. Leave this matter to me. Don't interfere. I promise to give you a satisfactory explanation," Pei Wen said.
In fact, Pei Wen felt helpless.
His cultivation level was indeed at the middle stage of the Blessed Realm, and he seemed to be the strongest person present.
But reality was different.
In terms of cultivation, he was only the third strongest in this area!
Because there were two terrifying auras hidden in the void!
The first terrifying aura came from Hu Jian, Elder Hu of the Supreme Nine Purities Temple.
The second terrifying aura came from the depths of Danwu College. As for its strength, it was likely that even Elder Hu was a little afraid of it.
Otherwise, with Elder Hu's character, he would surely not give such a 'kind' reminder.
After all, in the Supreme Nine Purities Temple, Elder Hu was famous for his bad temper.
"Pei Wen, I'll tell you a secret." Mu Tian also knew that Pei Wen would not speak nonsense. He rolled his eyes and decided to come up with a plan to use Pei Wen!
"What secret?" Pei Wen was puzzled.
Mu Tian moved slightly closer to Pei Wen and whispered a few words in his ear.
"What?!"
No one knew what Mu Tian said to Pei Wen, but it made Pei Wen jump.
At the same time, Pei Wen stared at Ning Yue with a burning gaze like a hungry wolf staring at a wild rabbit.
After all, Pei Wen was a middle stage Blessed Realm martial artist, so he tried his best to control himself and asked, "Is the news reliable?"
"Absolutely. You won't get another chance if you miss this one. Think about it carefully." Mu Tian said this and did not say anything else.
"Alright!"
One second. Pei Wen only thought for one second, and he had decided on a major matter.
Before the burning look on his face disappeared, Pei Wen turned to stare at Ning Yue and said, "I've changed my mind. As long as you can take three moves from me, I'll let you live."
"You want me to take three moves from you?" Ning Yue frowned, not knowing what Pei Wen was up to.
"Ning Yue, agree to it." Just as Ning Yue was secretly thinking, the Red Fiend's voice sounded in his mind. "But you have to change the rules. You have to use a sword for these three moves!"
"I have to use a sword?" Ning Yue's heart skipped a beat as he asked in confusion.
"That's right. This mid-stage Blessed Realm martial artist clearly wants you dead. In that case, you might as well make use of his mentality and attack first!" The Red Fiend nodded.
"Hey, kid, be more straightforward."
Ning Yue still wanted to say something, but Pei Wen seemed a little impatient. He said, "This is your only chance to live. If you miss it, then …"
"Don't be long-winded. Isn't it just three moves? I'll agree to it." Ning Yue first interrupted Pei Wen's words, then immediately changed the topic and said, "But I have a request. We have to use a sword for these three moves."
"Use a sword? I don't care what you use. In short, three moves. If I block it, I'll live, but if I don't, I'll die! "
Pei Wen did not care what these three moves were used. To him, anything could easily kill Ning Yue.
It was just that, in order to not be discovered, Pei Wen decided to use his full strength in the second move and kill Ning Yue!
This way, even if that powerhouse from Danwu College wanted to make a move to stop it, it would be too late.
Moreover, Hu Jian would definitely not look on with folded arms when the powerhouse from Danwu College made a move.
By the time a victor was decided, Ning Yue would have long been killed until not even dregs remained.
Swoosh!
In the next instant, Pei Wen took out a flying sword from his bosom.
The flying sword was silvery-white in color, containing violent essence energy undulations.
A peak low-grade King Rank flying sword!
The flying sword Pei Wen utilized was a peak low-grade King Rank flying sword, and its might was extremely formidable.
With the peak low-grade King Rank flying sword in hand, Pei Wen arrived before Ning Yue with a few leaps, and then he slashed out with his sword towards Ning Yue's head.
"First move!"
Pei Wen shouted loudly.
Swish!
When they saw Pei Wen's mighty sword strike, the eyes of the surrounding students opened wide, and they revealed astounded expressions.
How could Ning Yue possibly resist the full strength of an intermediate-stage Creation Realm martial artist?
For a time, everyone looked down upon Ning Yue, and it was even to the extent that some students started sighing.
"Alas, it's over, it's completely over."
"I originally thought that Ning Yue could become the savior of the world, but who would have imagined that Ning Yue isn't inferior to this powerhouse."
"Ning Yue has already done very well, but it's a pity that this powerhouse possesses a cultivation at the intermediate-stage of the Creation Realm."
"Right, if Ning Yue advances to the Creation Realm, then he can surely become the guardian of Danwu College … What!?"
The last student hadn't finished speaking when his mouth opened slightly while his pupils opened wide, and he seemed as if he'd seen something unbelievable.
Everyone's gazes moved along the direction of this student's palm towards the center of the battlefield.
Swoosh!
It was fine if they didn't look, but once they did, it directly caused all the students to be dumbstruck on the spot.
Crack!
At the center of the battlefield, Ning Yue held the Red Devil Sword in his hand as he slashed down from midair.
A clear sound resounded out, and the outcome caused Pei Wen to be shocked.
Exactly what flying sword is that in Ning Yue's hand? It actually slashed apart my low-grade King Rank flying sword?!
