Whoosh –
The treasure sword instantly pierced through the fist and arm.
But at this moment, the fist and arm also disappeared. What was stabbed was only an afterimage.
The Seven Star Steps of the Manifestation Boundary allowed him to change in a small area. Without waiting for Xiong Baotian's treasure sword to reach him, Ye Xing had already dodged 30 feet away.
Mm?
Xiong Baotian frowned. A cold light flashed and he slashed out with his sword again. He coldly snorted and said, "Let's see how many of my swords you can dodge with your movement technique!"
The sword emitted a cold light. It was like a waterfall that endlessly rushed towards Ye Xing.
The super brain activated its scanning mode. Xiong Baotian's every move was within Ye Xing's expectations.
In close combat, Ye Xing didn't need to use a bow and arrow. He slung the Dragon Tendon Bow across his body and used the Seven Star Steps with all his strength to avoid Xiong Baotian's swordsmanship.
The Seven Star Steps of the Manifestation Boundary were indeed extraordinary. Xiong Baotian attacked several times in a row. But, only the sword energy's sharpness could reach Ye Xing. The sword's body was always half a beat slower.
Ye Xing wore silver silk gloves and held a high-grade dagger in his hand. Xiong Baotian's sword energy's sharpness was forcibly defeated by him. His strength wasn't weak. Just dealing with the sword energy's sharpness was more than enough to spare.
In the blink of an eye, over a dozen moves had passed.
The martial artists watching were all shocked. Ye Xing's movement technique had reached the acme of perfection. No matter how close Xiong Baotian approached, the distance between the two was always 30 feet.
Besides the sword energy's sharpness, which could attack Ye Xing the moment it left his body, the sword's body always had a time difference. Thus, Ye Xing was able to dodge it.
However, although the sword energy's sharpness was terrifying, it couldn't do anything to Ye Xing. For a time, the battle between the two fell into a stalemate.
This was something that no one had expected.
Even Ye Xing was shocked. Even if Ye Xing's Seven Stars Steps had reached the Transformation Realm, there shouldn't be a situation where Xiong Baotian couldn't even touch the corner of his clothes.
Unless Ye Xing had extremely high combat skills and could always predict Xiong Baotian's attack position in advance.
A Martial Skill was a kind of skill, but it was a specific skill. For example, when the Roaring Tiger Fist was cultivated to perfection, it was only the skill of the Roaring Tiger Fist that had reached perfection. It had nothing to do with other Martial Skills.
However, true combat skills referred to a person's comprehensive reaction ability. It was a comprehensive skill. A person with excellent combat skills would not be weak even if he did not know any martial arts.
Furthermore, if one's combat skills were high, it was impossible for them to not know any martial skills. On the contrary, their attainments in all martial skills would be even higher.
The most direct difference between martial skills and combat skills was that a superior martial skill could defeat an opponent whose cultivation was higher than oneself but lower than oneself, while a superior combat skill could defeat an opponent whose strength was higher than oneself.
Ye Xing was a martial arts genius with a strong combat ability. It was clear that his combat skills were indeed high.
This made Ye Xing's eyes light up. It seemed that Ye Xing's confidence was indeed based on something.
However, Ye Wen was more worried. Even if one's combat skills were high and could defeat an opponent whose strength was higher than oneself, once the difference in strength between the two parties was too great, it would be extremely difficult to achieve victory.
The difference in strength between Ye Xing and Xiong Baotian was indeed very big. The strength that Ye Xing had displayed was not considered top-notch among sixth-level martialists, while Xiong Baotian was a genuine seventh-level Martial Dao Master.
At the moment, even though Xiong Baotian had the upper hand, he was still very unhappy. Although Ye Xing had been suppressed by him, he had still been unable to kill Ye Xing, who was only a fifth-level Martial Dao Master. He hadn't even been injured. To a Martial Dao Master like Xiong Baotian, this was a very disgraceful thing.
This was especially so under the watchful eyes of so many people. This made Xiong Baotian feel even more humiliated.
Unfortunately, he had no choice. Ye Xing's reaction speed was too fast. Unless he was exhausted and made a mistake, he simply couldn't get close to Ye Xing.
"Hide … Let me see how long you can hide …!"
While Violent Bear attacked with his sword, he angrily shouted, "You're only at the fifth level of cultivation. Your inner strength has only been refined to the flesh and blood, not even to the skin. But I am a martial dao master. When your inner strength is exhausted, see how I deal with you. I'll make you beg for death!"
The martialists, who had originally had some confidence in Ye Xing because of his outstanding performance, lost all hope in Ye Xing after hearing Xiong Baotian's words.
Xiong Baotian was right. How deep was the internal strength of a Martial Dao Master? Now Ye Xing was being suppressed by Xiong Baotian. When his internal strength ran out, his defeat was inevitable.
Perhaps Xiong Baotian's words poked at Ye Xing's worries. As soon as the former's voice fell, Ye Xing's face changed and his breath immediately showed signs of instability.
Seeing this, Xiong Baotian sneered and said, "Let's see how long you can last."
After only three moves, Ye Xing's face was suddenly shocked. It seemed that his internal strength was not enough. After dodging Xiong Baotian's sword, his body suddenly trembled and there was a momentary pause.
"Not good — —!"
Many people from the Yeh family, as well as some martialists who stood on Ye Xing's side, exclaimed. Their faces changed dramatically.
The confrontation between the two could be as simple as lightning. At this time, any pause would be a threat.
Xiong Baotian really caught Ye Xing's flaw. With a laugh, the sword in his hand emitted a cold light and instantly pierced toward Ye Xing's heart.
However, at this time, the corner of Ye Xing's mouth was slightly raised, revealing a trace of a smile.
He didn't look like he was lacking internal strength at all. His feet stepped on the Seven Stars and his body turned into a phantom. In an instant, he moved three feet to the side. Xiong Baotian's sword suddenly missed.
Without waiting for Xiong Baotian to retract his sword, Ye Xing blocked with the dagger in his hand and pushed outwards.
Originally, with Ye Xing's strength, it was impossible for him to contend with Xiong Baotian. However, Ye Xing now followed the force of Xiong Baotian's sword and pushed it. Xiong Baotian's sword was suddenly pushed away by Ye Xing, while Ye Xing's body moved forward and appeared in front of Xiong Baotian.
Seeing Ye Xing's trick, Xiong Baotian was furious. However, when Ye Xing moved in front of Xiong Baotian, Xiong Baotian's eyes revealed an excited smile.
He was worried that Ye Xing's movements were too fast and he couldn't get close. Now that Ye Xing took the initiative to close the distance between them, wasn't that seeking his own death?
Xiong Baotian's left hand turned into a claw and grabbed Ye Xing's shoulder like lightning.
Upper grade martial skill — Bone Shattering Claw.
If this claw was caught, the bones in Ye Xing's shoulder would definitely be shattered and he would be restrained by Xiong Baotian, unable to move.
At this moment, the Xiong family members were overjoyed and couldn't help but cheer. As for the Yeh family members, their expressions changed and their faces turned ashen.
However, Ye Xing's face still had a confident smile. At the same time that Xiong Baotian grabbed out with the Bone Shattering Claw, Ye Xing had already punched out.
Upper grade martial skill — Thousand Shadow Fist.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Xing's arm disappeared, leaving behind only the dense shadows of his fists.
Bang — —
At the critical moment, there was an explosion.
Xiong Baotian's body instantly retreated backward and was sent flying by Ye Xing's punch.
The Thousand Shadow Fist at the large success stage was indeed extraordinary. Xiong Baotian didn't even see Ye Xing's fist clearly and was already hit by Ye Xing's fist. And the Bone Shattering Claw he grabbed out hadn't even touched Ye Xing's clothes.
At this moment, many martial artists exclaimed and looked at Xiong Baotian who was sent flying by Ye Xing with faces full of disbelief.
A seventh-grade martial dao master was actually sent flying by Ye Xing in a head-on battle. How was this possible?
This sudden change shocked the hearts of all the martial artists present.
Xiong Batian, who had been sent flying, was not only filled with humiliation, but also regret. He had been tricked by Ye Xing once again. If he hadn't been so impatient with his attack just now, and instead had kept a backup move, then it would have been impossible for him to not be able to pull back his sword.
And if he had withdrawn his sword, he wouldn't have been hit by Ye Xing's punch. No matter how fast Ye Xing's fist was, it couldn't be faster than his sword.
Unfortunately, it was all too late. Ye Xing deliberately showed a flaw in order to block Xiong Baotian's sword. Xiong Baotian fell for it and immediately stepped into Ye Xing's chain of killing moves.
At the same time as the punch sent Xiong Baotian flying, Ye Xing's body also used the Seven Star Steps to retreat with the recoil force.
Moreover, Ye Xing immediately threw away the dagger in his hand and took out the Dragon Tendon Bow and Black Edge Arrow.
Drawing the bow and shooting the arrow only took a blink of an eye.
The power of Ye Xing's punch wasn't focused on hurting people but on pushing them away. Xiong Baotian was sent flying by Ye Xing's punch.
Whoosh — —
When Ye Xing shot the Black Edge Arrow, Xiong Baotian was still floating in the air.
At this time, Xiong Baotian had nowhere to borrow strength and nowhere to hide. Moreover, Ye Xing's arrow only pursued speed and power without any distortion in its trajectory. In the blink of an eye, it was in front of him. Xiong Baotian didn't have time to use his inner strength to split the arrow. He could only hold his sword horizontally and block the arrow.
If he was standing on the ground, Xiong Baotian could completely rely on his legs to take the arrow's power without taking half a step back.
Even so, he did not have any place to borrow strength from as he was in the air. Even though he managed to block the arrow, the force from the arrow caused him to fly backward even faster.
In the blink of an eye, Xiong Baotian flew back another hundred feet.
At this time, the distance between the two was more than two hundred feet. Seeing Xiong Baotian fly back, the warriors watching from the back naturally scattered to the sides, leaving a large space.
Ye Xing no longer retreated. His legs bent into a bow and firmly planted into the ground. At the same time, he took out three Black Edge Arrows and nocked them on the bowstring.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Just as Xiong Baotian was about to land, Ye Xing released three arrows. The three Black Edge Arrows drew different distorted trajectories in the air, but they all had the same target — Xiong Baotian.
The arrows that contained the power of the wind were extremely fast. Moreover, their trajectories were mysterious and unpredictable. This was Ye Xing's true killing move.
At this time, Xiong Baotian's situation was exactly the same as that of the masked assassin. How could he block Ye Xing's arrows?
Clang! Clang!
Xiong Baotian used all his strength and waved his sword to form a sword screen that densely covered the surroundings. However, he was only able to block two Black Edge Arrows.
However, Ye Xing shot a total of three arrows.
Xiong Baotian, who had just landed, felt a pain in his chest. He looked down and saw a blood-stained black arrow piercing through his heart.
This Black Edge Arrow shot through Xiong Baotian's back and out of his chest, piercing through his heart.
