The smile on Sun Gang's face froze the moment the arrow locked onto him.
His eyes were filled with shock and fear.
Ye Xing's arrow was too powerful, causing him to feel an instinctive fear.
The more powerful a martial artist was, the more confident he would be, and the more sensitive his senses would be. He would naturally be able to sense attacks that were difficult to block.
At this moment, Sun Gang felt that it was difficult to block Ye Xing's arrow. It was as if he would be severely injured as soon as Ye Xing shot the arrow.
"No … Impossible!"
Sun Gang got rid of the fear in his heart and strengthened his confidence. "He's only a Ninth Star Supremacy. No matter how strong he is, there's a limit to his strength. He can't hurt me. Impossible!"
Sun Gang used all his strength to activate the astral energy and the power of his astrology to the maximum. The stone defense on the surface of his body emitted a green glow and seemed to be flowing with light.
He held the black iron staff tightly with both hands and was on high alert. He was ready to shoot down Ye Xing's arrow at any time.
Whoosh —
Suddenly, the arrow in Ye Xing's hand left the bowstring and shot out explosively.
Even though the disciples had fixed their eyes on Ye Xing without blinking, they only saw a flash of light and lost track of the arrow.
The speed of this arrow was too fast.
When the arrow's speed reached a certain level, it could break through the void. The air was the only resistance. Therefore, when the arrow's penetrating power was strong enough and its aura was sharp enough, the speed at which it pierced through the air would be greatly increased.
With the arrow intent, Ye Xing's arrow's penetrating power increased by more than ten times. The arrow's speed was naturally extremely fast, almost surpassing the passage of time.
Among the disciples of the Tenth Peak, the number of people who could barely see the trajectory of Ye Xing's arrow could not be counted on one hand.
Although Sun Gang's defense was strong, his reaction was not top-notch, so he was not included.
When the arrow left the bowstring and the light flashed, Sun Gang knew that he could not block the arrow. The only way to deal with it was to dodge.
Although Ye Xing's arrow was extremely fast, he was still confident that he could dodge it if he moved within a small area.
However, just as Sun Gang thought of dodging, he was shocked to discover that the space around him had become viscous. The air was like a stream of water, creating a great resistance.
How fast was Ye Xing's arrow? It happened in an instant. There wasn't even the passage of time. Sun Gang's body moved. Originally, he was going to change his position in an instant, but the air resistance caused his speed to slow down for a moment.
Although it was less than a tenth of a blink of an eye, it was more than enough time for Ye Xing to shoot an arrow.
The astral arrow struck Sun Gang's body from an unexpected angle. That layer of stone defense was instantly penetrated by the arrow.
The sharp arrow pierced through Sun Gang's stone defense, piercing through his inner armor and cutting into his body. The intense pain caused Sun Gang to cry out in pain. His body involuntarily flew backwards and fell onto the arena.
Hiss —
All the disciples sucked in a breath of cold air. The result of this battle was once again out of their expectations.
No one had thought that Ye Xing would be able to defeat Sun Gang in a single move. The fearsomeness of that arrow struck fear into the hearts of all the disciples.
"Ye Xing wins, one point added. Sun Gang loses, one point deducted."
Ye Xing continued to maintain his winning streak, ending Sun Gang's winning streak. At this point, only Ye Xing, Zheng Haoyu, and Tu Qianzhang had a winning streak.
The latter two were the hot candidates for first place. However, Ye Xing's defeat of Sun Gang gave some disciples a thought. Perhaps Ye Xing was also in the competition for first place?
Of course, this was just a thought. If they wanted to be sure, they had to at least cross the mountain known as Gao Jian.
Although Gao Jian did not maintain a winning streak, he was one of the initial candidates for first place. There was no doubt about his strength.
Ye Xing's qualification to compete for first place had to be tested by Gao Jian. If he could defeat Gao Jian, then he definitely had the strength to compete for first place. If he could not defeat Gao Jian, then competing for first place would be completely meaningless.
Ye Xing and Sun Gang's battle did not last long. Soon, it was the turn of the first-level disciples.
This time, it was Tu Qianzhang against Gao Jian.
This would be yet another battle between the pinnacle. Not only that, Tu Qianzhang was the same as Ye Xing, he would also have to face Gao Jian. Although Tu Qianzhang was powerful and famous, no one dared to say that Tu Qianzhang could win against Gao Jian.
Like Ye Xing, Tu Qianzhang would only be qualified to compete with Zheng Haoyu for first place if he defeated Gao Jian. If he lost to Gao Jian, then he would have no chance at first place.
In the arena, Gao Jian and Tu Qianzhang stood facing each other. Gao Jian's sword aura was surging and extremely sharp. It contained the aura of sword intent that swept across the area.
In the previous battle between Zheng Haoyu and Gao Jian, Zheng Haoyu was suppressed by Gao Jian's sword aura. It could be seen how strong Gao Jian's sword aura was.
"Hahaha …!"
Tu Qianzhang laughed in the face of Gao Jian's sword aura suppression. He did not care.
With his laughter, an illusory saber shadow appeared above his head. A terrifying aura that could cut off heaven and earth instantly erupted.
Tu Qianzhang smiled and said, "Martial intent, I also have —!"
"Saber intent! It's saber intent! "
"Senior Brother Tu Qianzhang actually comprehended saber intent at Enlightenment Mountain!"
"My God, Senior Brother Tu Qianzhang's strength is very powerful. He could compete with Gao Jian. Now that he has comprehended saber intent, how can Gao Jian be his opponent?"
…
The disciples suddenly exclaimed, their voices shaking.
At this time, the battle had already begun. As soon as Tu Qianzhang's voice fell, he used Astrology, took out a high-grade black saber, and slashed out. The attack was swift and fierce, shrouding the entire arena.
Tu Qianzhang's saber technique was originally overbearing. Now that it contained saber intent, its power was on another level. He attacked Gao Jian fiercely, one saber strike after another.
Even though Gao Jian had comprehended sword intent and his sword moves were as powerful as thunder, he was still suppressed by Tu Qianzhang's saber technique.
In the twelfth saber strike, Gao Jian could not withstand it. He was sent flying by Tu Qianzhang's saber and lost the battle.
Tu Qianzhang withdrew his Astrology, saber, and aura. However, his black hair was flying, and there was still a kind of overbearing momentum.
His eyes revealed arrogance. First, he glanced at Zheng Haoyu to show that he was not afraid of Zheng Haoyu. Then, he looked at Ye Xing with a trace of ruthlessness.
Ye Xing felt the words in Tu Qianzhang's eyes, "Boy, I'll wait for you!"
Ye Xing's expression was as usual. He did not feel any pressure against Tu Qianzhang.
If he entered the top ten, he would be qualified to go to the Heavenly Bow Continent. Ye Xing's goal had been achieved. As for the final ranking, he would try his best, but he did not care.
Ye Xing was certain to enter the top ten. No matter how powerful Tu Qianzhang was, he could not shake his mind.
