(Thank you for your blessings. Bow!)
Bai Yushan's gold-threaded inner armor had been broken and a layer of skin had been scraped off from his chest. It was a ghastly sight to behold as blood dripped from the wound. Bai Yushan's complexion changed several times. Thinking back, it seemed that his finger strike had not truly struck Chen Zong.
Chen Zong's expression was somewhat cold. Bai Yushan's Blood Shattering Finger had not actually struck his chest. It had been blocked by the metal piece that had been stuck to his chest to open the stone chamber. Otherwise, it was very likely that, as Bai Yushan had said, all of his blood and Qi would have deteriorated and eventually disappear, becoming a cripple. Just thinking about that kind of consequence made him shudder.
Previously, he had read many books about it. There were some strange and even vicious martial arts that specialized in destroying Qi and blood. However, they were rare and not easy to cultivate. He did not expect Bai Yushan to have them.
Murderous intent gathered in his heart.
However, with Instructor Yang here, it was impossible for him to kill Chen Zong.
"It's a spar between fellow disciples, not a battle of life and death. You've gone too far." Instructor Yang's expression was cold, and his voice was filled with anger. His sharp and cold gaze seemed to pierce through Bai Yushan and Chen Zong. "This battle ends here. It's a draw."
The audience below the arena did not expect a battle to turn out like this. Those with good eyesight could see that at the last moment, Bai Yushan had pointed at Chen Zong's chest. Although they did not know what kind of move it was, they were sure that it was a type of finger technique.
The heart was the source of Qi and blood. Once it was damaged, it would take at least a month or more to recuperate. In serious cases, it would leave a permanent illness that would affect the progress of one's cultivation. It was equivalent to cutting off one's future.
Because of this, Chen Zong attacked with his sword, intending to kill Bai Yushan. However, Bai Yushan dodged at the last moment.
This had turned into a battle of life and death. It was not allowed.
"As the eldest senior brother, you've disappointed me." Instructor Yang looked at Bai Yushan and scolded coldly.
He was more familiar with Bai Yushan and had high hopes for him. As for Chen Zong, he had a deep impression of him because Huan Yun Swordsman had pointed him out. However, he knew very little about Chen Zong. After watching the battle today, he was shocked and delighted that Chen Zong was able to fight Bai Yushan with his Qi and Blood Realm Level Eight strength and not be at a disadvantage.
After all, no matter what, Chen Zong was a disciple of the Glorious Sword Hall. His talent was outstanding and he was powerful. To the Glorious Sword Hall, it was an honor. As a teacher of the Glorious Sword Hall, he was also proud.
He used to think that Chen Zong was arrogant and conceited. After seeing Chen Zong's strength, he was not angry at all even though he was slapped in the face. Instead, he thought more highly of Chen Zong.
A disciple whom he had thought highly of before and a disciple whom he had just thought highly of actually wanted to kill each other. This was unacceptable.
"Both of you, go back and reflect." Instructor Yang waved his hand and said.
"Yes." Bai Yushan nodded and sheathed his sword. He turned around and pretended to leave. Chen Zong also sheathed his sword. Instructor Yang clasped his hands behind his back and left the arena in a flash.
A sudden change occurred!
"Third layer of the Blood Boiling Technique!"
"Astral Force!"
"Flying Star Chasing Moon!"
In an instant, Bai Yushan exploded. His blood and Qi boiled like boiling water. His body temperature rose rapidly and his skin turned red. There seemed to be wisps of white gas rising.
The third layer of the Blood Boiling Technique increased his strength by two thousand Jin and his speed by thirty percent. This allowed Bai Yushan's strength to reach a whole new level in an instant.
Immediately, the fourth layer of the Astral Force Technique that Bai Yushan cultivated also erupted. The condensed Astral Force appeared. The precious iron sword was unsheathed. It seemed as if a speck of Astral Force was injected into the sword. It turned into a peerless meteor that tore through the sky. It was extremely sudden and ruthless. Bai Yushan's speed increased once again. He displayed a High Grade Mortal Level Martial Technique that had reached the Large Success Stage. Carrying all of Bai Yushan's strength, he stabbed towards Chen Zong.
Twelve thousand Jin of arm strength, a thirty percent increase in speed, and the amplification of the Astral Force condensed from the fourth layer of the Astral Force Technique was extremely terrifying. The crowd below the stage only felt as if their thoughts had stopped. Their eyesight was simply unable to capture that sword. Even the three powerful Tianyao Hall disciples could only see a flash of Astral Force.
The speed of this sword already showed signs of surpassing the limits of the Qi and Blood Realm. It was infinitely close to the average Qi Refining Realm.
"Bai Yushan, you dare …" Instructor Yang turned around to look. His complexion suddenly changed. He roared as he exploded with Inner Strength. His body was like an unsheathed sword, extremely fast. At the same time, he unsheathed the long sword on his back and instantly slashed out. The strong wind from the sword tore through the air. It was like a transparent crescent moon that slashed towards Bai Yushan's sword.
However, Instructor Yang was already some distance away from the stage. Bai Yushan's eruption was also very sudden. It was like water from afar couldn't put out a nearby fire, so he was a bit slower.
Chen Zong also didn't expect that Bai Yushan would actually be so crazy in front of everyone. It was completely unexpected. However, despite his surprise, Chen Zong didn't panic in the face of danger. His reaction was extremely fast.
His extraordinary speed of thought allowed him to make the most accurate response in an instant.
Bai Yushan's sword was extremely fast and difficult to dodge. He could only take it head-on.
"Blood Boiling Art, second stage!"
"True Sky Extinction Sword Force!"
Chen Zong had already cultivated the Blood Boiling Art to the second stage. It could increase his strength by five hundred kilograms and speed by twenty percent. This couldn't compare to Bai Yushan's Blood Boiling Art's third stage. Immediately, the True Sky Extinction Sword Force hidden in his heart erupted.
As one of the eight great forces of Ultimate Martial Main City, the Bai Family naturally also had a Top Grade Mortal Rank Art. However, there was only one, and only the most important and outstanding disciples could cultivate it. Bai Yushan did indeed have a high position in the Bai Family, but he still didn't have the qualifications to cultivate a Top Grade Mortal Rank Art. What he cultivated was the High Grade Mortal Rank Astral Art.
Similarly, in the Seven Lights Martial Academy, there were naturally Top Grade Mortal Rank Arts and Martial Arts. Not just anyone could cultivate them.
The first three stages of the Astral Art could increase one's attack power and speed by ten percent. When cultivated to the fourth stage, it would condense a ray of Astral Art. When used, it would increase one's strength and speed by another ten percent, just like a shooting star.
As the First Senior Brother of the Brilliant Sword Hall, Bai Yushan's talent was indeed outstanding. He had already cultivated the Astral Art to the fourth stage.
However, the True Sword Heavenly Extinction Art surpassed Top Grade Mortal Rank Arts. When cultivated to the fourth stage, it could increase one's sword power by fifty percent. It was extremely terrifying. The condensed True Sky Extinction Sword Force could also increase one's strength by fifty percent. When stacked together, it would become even more astonishing.
"Sky Light Cloud Shadow Sword!"
Bai Yushan's sword carried a certain killing intent. Chen Zong didn't hold back either. Under the full force of his strength, he displayed his most tyrannical sword.
An extremely intense light shone, almost filling the entire arena. Below the arena, even the three Heavenly Brilliance Hall disciples could only see a vast expanse of whiteness. The First Senior Brother of the Martial Brilliance Hall, Zhan Ying, was shocked. He had once seen Chen Zong display this sword not long ago. He had even personally clashed with it. At that time, it wasn't as strong as it was now.
Now that this sword was displayed, he couldn't see where the sword was at all. He couldn't even feel it. There was only a kind of feeling that terrified him.
An intense ear-piercing sound reverberated from the strong light cloud shadow. The air rippled like water. At the same time, Instructor Yang's crescent-moon-like sword wind also arrived, directly shattering and dispersing the strong light.
Chen Zong held his sword. His face was pale as he staggered back. On the other hand, Bai Yushan was sent flying. The precious iron sword in his hand fell off and stabbed into the arena. There was a sword wound on his chest. It was so deep that his bones could be seen. Large amounts of blood gushed out.
If Chen Zong's sword hadn't directly blocked it with his precious iron sword, Bai Yushan would have been cut in half. Even so, he was seriously injured. If he wasn't treated in time, he might die from excessive blood loss.
As the sword wind passed, Instructor Yang also landed on the arena. His expression was extremely cold and his eyes contained shocking anger.
"Chen Zong, you're too heavy-handed." Instructor Yang reprimanded him directly. He immediately looked at Bai Yushan and said, "Why aren't you taking Bai Yushan away for treatment? In addition, as the First Senior Brother of the Martial Brilliance Hall, I announce that Bai Yushan, as the First Senior Brother, has violated the rules of the First Senior Brother. He will be temporarily replaced by Chen Zong."
The First Senior Brother of the Hall must not only have outstanding strength, but also be fair and just. After all, as the First Senior Brother, he could enjoy treatment and rights that others didn't have. If he wasn't fair and just, it would only break the rules.
Previously, although Bai Yushan wasn't completely fair and just, he wasn't biased by much. Instructor Yang didn't mind. After all, people were like that. They all had their own preferences and so on. It was inevitable that they would be biased in their actions. As long as it was within the rules, it was acceptable.
However, this time, when facing Chen Zong, Bai Yushan's actions had greatly disappointed Instructor Yang. Recalling Bai Yushan's evaluation of Chen Zong, now that he thought about it, Bai Yushan might have had his own selfish motives.
Such a person naturally didn't have the qualifications to be the First Senior Brother.
Chen Zong displayed even more tyrannical strength and defeated Bai Yushan. Thus, he had the qualifications to be the First Senior Brother. However, Instructor Yang still didn't know what his character was like. Therefore, he could only temporarily replace him. It could also be considered as an evaluation period.
After the heavily injured Bai Yushan's wounds were sprinkled with hemostatic powder, he was carried away. Because his injuries were too severe, he was stripped of his position as the First Senior Brother, causing Bai Yushan to faint. When he woke up, everything would be different.
"Chen Zong, remember, as the First Senior Brother, you must protect the honor of the Glorious Sword Hall. Regardless of whether it's the disciples of the Glorious Sword Hall or the disciples of the other Halls, you must be fair and just." Instructor Yang's tone was strict.
"I will do it with a clear conscience." Chen Zong replied. He knew very well that the so-called fairness was relative. It depended on the situation and wasn't fixed. Therefore, the only thing he could do was to have a clear conscience.
"From today onwards, you will move into the First Senior Brother's Building and enjoy the treatment of a First Senior Brother." Instructor Yang nodded and said.
As the First Senior Brother, the place where he lived was an independent pavilion named the First Senior Brother's Building. It was even better than the ten small high-grade buildings. In addition, he would be able to receive ten thousand White Jade Coins every month, possess a Precious Iron Weapon or a Golden Silk Inner Armor, receive three Great Scarlet Blood Pills and a Blood Essence Pill for free every month, and so on. Moreover, there would be people who would take care of his daily life. He didn't need to go to the Cafeteria to eat because there would be people who would specially prepare his meals. He would eat food made from Tiger Tooth Rice that contained rich energy and the meat and bones of Level 2 Demonic Beasts.
