The surrounding audience stared with their eyes wide open at this moment.
High-grade martial arts techniques were extremely rare in Celestial City. Which martial artist did not want to witness the power of a high-grade martial arts technique?
Moreover, the crowd was also worried for Wei Qingxuan. The sword veil that Gu Yijian displayed was truly shocking and made one's heart palpitate.
Wei Qingxuan faced the sword veil with a calm expression!
Gu Yijian was only a Level Six martial artist. His inner strength had only been cultivated to the point where it could be injected into a weapon. However, no matter what, he could not let his inner strength leave his body.
Therefore, although the sword veil looked terrifying, it was in fact just an illusion created by the sword being drawn too quickly. It was not a mass of sword energy that came slashing over.
No matter how many illusions there were, no matter how dense the sword veil was, one thing was certain — Gu Yijian only had one sword in his hand. Moreover, this sword could only be in the same position at the same time.
Boom —
Wei Qingxuan did not retreat half a step or dodge. Instead, she threw a punch at the sword veil!
In an instant, the force of a mountain surged and the roar of a tiger roared!
Wei Qingxuan displayed the Mountain Technique and Roaring Tiger Fist to the highest level of perfection.
Clang —
There was a flash of silver light and a crisp sound. Wei Qingxuan's fist accurately hit the body of the sword.
Wei Qingxuan wore a pair of silver gloves on her hands. When she clashed with Gu Yijian's treasured sword, she was not injured at all. Instead, the treasured sword trembled and rebounded.
Although Gu Yijian's Scorching Sun Swordsmanship was a high-grade martial arts technique, it was only at the entry level. Other than the exquisite moves, its power was not superior to a middle-grade martial arts technique at the perfection level. Instead, it was slightly inferior.
"Ha —!"
Wei Qingxuan roared and displayed the Roaring Tiger Fist. She immediately launched a fierce counterattack against Gu Yijian.
Gu Yijian's inner strength had been depleted by more than half. If he were to engage in a slow battle of attrition, it would instead give the former an opportunity to recover his inner strength. Thus, it was better to launch a series of frenzied attacks that would make it difficult for the latter to parry.
That was indeed the case. In the face of Wei Qingxuan's frenzied attacks, Gu Yijian immediately retreated. His momentum instantly weakened as he brandished his sword to block Wei Qingxuan's fist.
Clang clang clang …
Wei Qingxuan threw out a series of punches, all of which were blocked by Gu Yizhan. However, when Wei Qingxuan threw out her fifth punch, Gu Yizhan could not circulate it in time due to the intense consumption of his inner strength. He was slower by half a beat and was unable to block it.
Boom!
Wei Qingxuan's punch landed squarely on Gu Yijian's chest and sent him flying.
That surging mountain-like momentum, coupled with the terrifying power of the fist, caused Gu Yijian to spit out a mouthful of blood. He was sent flying back more than ten meters before crashing heavily onto the ground.
At this moment, everyone's faces were filled with shock!
Previously, Gu Yizhan had threatened to defeat Wei Qingxuan in five moves, but it turned out to be empty talk.
Now, Wei Qingxuan had launched a counterattack and defeated Gu Yizhan with only five punches.
It had to be said that this was a kind of irony. Gu Yizhan had not only lost in strength but also in face.
"Wei Qingxuan wins this round and advances to the sixth round!"
Gu Jing, who was standing beside the arena, announced the result with a surprised expression. He immediately flashed to Gu Yizhan's side and helped him up.
In the pavilion, the leaders of the various factions exclaimed in surprise. However, due to the City Lord Gu Cangnan's reputation, no one made any comments.
At this moment, only Mu Feng of the Zishan Marquis Residence dared to praise Wei Qingxuan in front of Gu Cangnan. He said, "This young lady's skills are very good. She's a rare genius of the younger generation!"
Hearing Mu Feng's praise, Wei Zhengguang, who was not far away, was full of smiles, like a blooming chrysanthemum.
Gu Cangnan smiled embarrassedly and said, "My son's state of mind is not good. He's made a fool of himself in front of Mr. Mu."
Mu Feng had a faint smile on his face and said, "It's good to suffer more setbacks when your state of mind is not good!"
Gu Cangnan nodded and said, "Mr. Mu's words are reasonable. I hope my son can be taught a lesson."
Mu Feng's eyes revealed a strong interest and said, "This trip to Celestial Azure City is really worth it. I've witnessed two geniuses of the younger generation. Haha … I'm looking forward to the next match. I wonder how long Ye Xing will take to defeat Xiong Qifeng!"
The moment these words came out, everyone was shocked!
Ye Xing and Xiong Qifeng had not even started fighting yet, but Mu Feng had already made such a certain judgment.
It was only a matter of time before Ye Xing defeated Xiong Qifeng?
The pavilion was filled with the top figures of Celestial Azure City, but there were very few who agreed with this judgment.
Especially Xiong Tyrannosaurus and several Xiong Family elders. They were very unhappy when they heard that. Of course, in front of Mu Feng, they did not dare to let out a fart.
Gu Cangnan also saw that Ye Xing's strength was not ordinary from the exchange between Ye Xing and Wei Qingyan. But he did not place Ye Xing on the same level as Gu Yijian and Xiong Qifeng.
Hearing Mu Feng's judgment, Gu Cangnan could not help being secretly alarmed and said, "Mr. Mu thinks that Ye Xing will win?"
Mu Feng smiled slightly and waved his hand in the direction of the stage. "They've already entered the stage …"
On the stage, Ye Xing and Xiong Qifeng stood facing each other.
Xiong Qifeng and Gu Yijian were equally famous. Gu Yijian's defeat made him feel like they were in the same boat, and he was unhappy in his heart.
Especially when he recalled Ye Yunlong said to him before that he would also be surpassed by the rising stars. Wei Qingxuan defeated Gu Yijian, and in other people's eyes, she vaguely also defeated him. This made Xiong Qifeng even more depressed.
"I, Xiong Qifeng, will never be surpassed by the rising stars. Never!"
Xiong Qifeng said in his heart. He looked at Ye Xing with a fierce gaze. He wanted to use Ye Xing to prove his strength as a proud son of heaven.
Therefore, after the two entered the stage, Xiong Qifeng did not say a word. He directly unsheathed his treasured saber and attacked Ye Xing.
He wanted to cut the Gordian knot and severely injure Ye Xing.
As soon as Xiong Qifeng attacked, he used his most proficient martial skill, which was also the Xiong Family's unique skill — the 24 Moves Mountain Cleaving Saber Technique.
The saber light was dazzling white, like silver frost, as it violently slashed at Ye Xing.
When Gu Yijian attacked Wei Qingxuan, even if he was angered towards the end, it was only to defeat Wei Qingxuan. He did not have the intention to severely injure Wei Qingxuan.
As for Xiong Qifeng, he did not have the slightest fear of injuring Ye Xing. His saber went straight for Ye Xing's vital points. Even if he would cut off Ye Xing's head with a single strike, Xiong Qifeng would never stop.
In Xiong Qifeng's heart, it was not that he did not have the intention to kill Ye Xing on the stage, but he was afraid that there would not be such an opportunity. Naturally, he would not show any mercy.
Seeing how ruthless Xiong Qifeng was, quite a few people around the square were shocked, and cries of alarm rang out.
In the pavilion, the various big shots of Celestial Azure City were also surprised, but their expressions were different.
Xiong Baolong sneered inwardly. It would be best if Xiong Qifeng could cut down Ye Xing with his saber.
The Xiong Family had Xiong Qisheng in Indigo Mountain Academy's genius class, and he had connections with big shots in Indigo Mountain Academy. Xiong Baolong believed that even if he killed Ye Xing, with Xiong Qisheng's connections in Indigo Mountain Academy, Mu Feng would not punish Xiong Qifeng too harshly.
However, Xiong Baolong did not see that at this moment, Mu Feng's eyes were slightly narrowed, hiding a murderous intent.
The main purpose of Indigo Mountain Academy's recruitment was to discover the younger generation's geniuses from all over the world. It was forbidden to kill during the competition.
And Ye Xing was the younger generation's genius that Mu Feng had his eyes on. If he was killed in front of his eyes, then the murderer would not be able to live.
However, Mu Feng's murderous intent was hidden, and outsiders could not see it. He also did not have any intention of stopping him. He was a peak eighth stage Martial Master, how could he not see that Ye Xing was much stronger than Xiong Qifeng?
Even if Xiong Qifeng suddenly attacked Ye Xing madly, using poison and killing moves, he would not be able to do anything to Ye Xing.
Mu Feng was not wrong at all!
The Seven Stars Steps was originally a mid-grade movement technique with the fastest reaction speed. The Seven Stars Steps at the Transformation stage was even more terrifying than the Butterfly Dance Steps at the Transformation stage.
No matter how fast, fast, and ruthless Xiong Qifeng's saber attacks were, they could not even touch the corner of Ye Xing's clothes.
After three consecutive saber attacks, Xiong Qifeng knew that he was in the same situation as Gu Yijian.
Ye Xing's movement technique attainments were as shocking as Wei Qingxuan's. If he continued attacking like this, even if Xiong Qifeng died of exhaustion, he would not be able to touch the corner of his clothes.
After only three moves of the twenty-four moves of the Mountain Splitting Saber Technique, Xiong Qifeng's saber technique changed, and the saber light suddenly became like the moon.
High-grade martial technique — Waning Moon Saber Technique!
Waning Moon Saber Technique was the complete high-grade martial technique of the Xiong family. The complete here did not refer to the martial technique's mnemonic chant, but to the cultivation experience.
Because of this, the difficulty of cultivating Waning Moon Saber Technique was much lower than the incomplete high-grade martial techniques of the Wei and Ye families.
Not only did Xiong Qifeng successfully cultivate Waning Moon Saber Technique, his attainments were even more profound than Gu Yijian's Scorching Sun Sword Technique.
Moreover, Xiong Qifeng's cultivation was also a step higher than Gu Yijian's. A few days ago, he had reached the late sixth stage.
Xiong Qifeng was very sure that Ye Xing could not dodge his Waning Moon Saber Technique, nor could he block it. His attack power from below was definitely stronger than Gu Yijian's. Even if he encountered Wei Qingxuan, Xiong Qifeng was not afraid at all.
Soft Bone Palm!
Ye Xing's hands were like snakes, meeting the saber light that was like moonlight. He wore a pair of black and gold silk gloves on his hands.
Ye Xing first deflected his opponent's power, then clasped his hands together, clamping the treasured saber.
His bones were completely cultivated, and his physical strength was stronger than Wei Qingxuan's. Coupled with his vigorous inner strength, the clasping of his hands was like an iron clamp clamping down on the treasured saber. In an instant, the treasured saber was fixed between his hands.
No matter how hard Xiong Qifeng pressed down, he could not chop down.
Xiong Qifeng roared and fiercely pulled out the saber. Ye Xing's hands clamped down on the saber, and his body suddenly became light. He flew forward with the treasured saber that Xiong Qifeng pulled back.
Then, his legs kicked fiercely!
Middle-grade martial technique — Wind Chasing Kick!
The Wind Chasing Kick that incorporated the power of the wind was as fast as a phantom, and Xiong Qifeng was immediately kicked. Ye Xing took a deep breath and fiercely kicked several times, one of which hit the heart.
Xiong Qifeng immediately spat out a mouthful of blood, suffering heavy injuries. His hands let go of the saber's hilt, and he staggered back, shock in his eyes.
He never expected that he would be heavily injured by Ye Xing after using a high-grade martial technique.
All the spectators were also dumbfounded, their hearts thumping. They did not expect that Ye Xing and Xiong Qifeng's battle would also end in the victory of a fifth stage martial artist.
The two proud sons of heaven of Celestial Azure City were actually both defeated by a rising star. This indeed made many martial artists feel incredulous.
From now on, Gu Yijian and Xiong Qijian could no longer be called proud sons of heaven. Among the younger generation of Celestial Azure City, only Ye Xing and Wei Qingxuan, these two rising stars, could be called the Twin Prides!
Just as the martial artists were shocked and exclaiming, an extremely shrill scream suddenly came from the arena!
