On White Cloud Floating Island, the seventy-two arenas were filled with battles.
Chen Zong landed on one of the arenas and faced the Arena Master directly. This Arena Master was an Earth Grade disciple from the previous batch and his cultivation had reached the peak of the Transcendent Realm Eighth Layer. His extraordinary talent and many years of hard work had given him tyrannical strength. In the outside world, he was strong enough to challenge rogue cultivators.
Therefore, this Arena Master stared at Chen Zong without the slightest fear, instead full of confidence.
"Make your move, don't blame me for not giving you a chance." The Arena Master's voice was deep and powerful. As he spoke, he immediately gathered his strength, causing the eight Spirit Wheels in his body to revolve rapidly. Spirit Qi rushed out from his body, not only protecting him but also allowing him to instantly erupt with tyrannical strength to counterattack.
Chen Zong didn't say anything. His response was extremely simple, he simply pointed his finger at the Arena Master and suddenly, like a small stone falling into a calm water surface, ripples spread out in all directions.
A beam of sword light immediately shot out from the center of the ripples, piercing through the sky with irresistible force and shooting towards the Arena Master like a meteor chasing after the moon.
The speed of this sword was extremely fast and mysterious, making it impossible for the Arena Master to dodge. The Arena Master's face suddenly changed and he immediately erupted with all his Spirit Qi, pouring it into his palms. Waving his palms, he summoned countless clouds from all directions and condensed them into a wall in front of him.
White Cloud Wall!
This wall attempted to block Chen Zong's Sword Qi.
With a pop, the white cloud wall was instantly pierced through. The terrifying power was like a giant hammer as it directly smashed into the arena master's palms, causing the spiritual energy gathered on his palms to collapse. His entire body was sent flying.
One strike!
With just a single blow, without even drawing his sword, Yang Kai had defeated an Earth Grade disciple who was at the peak of the Eighth Layer Transcendent Realm with just his finger. This kind of strength was no small matter, shocking all who saw it.
"This person's Sword Technique is very exquisite," Some people from the previous Cloud List narrowed their eyes and said in surprise.
"He is indeed not bad. Moreover, that finger is probably not even 50% of his strength."
"I know. His name is Chen Zong. He is a new Heaven-rank disciple and is quite outstanding. It is said that more than a year ago, Junior Brother Xu Ling was defeated by a single sword strike and fainted from the shock. I don't know if it is true or not." The disciple on the Cloud List who spoke glanced at Xu Ling.
Xu Ling's expression abruptly changed when he heard this. To him, this was a humiliation, the greatest humiliation he had ever suffered since he was born. It was a humiliation he was unwilling to recall.
Being defeated by a single sword strike was nothing. After all, there was a difference in strength. However, to be stunned by the opponent's aura to the point of fainting was very embarrassing. It felt as if all the hard work and effort in cultivation had been wasted. It was a huge humiliation.
This was the pain in Xu Ling's heart.
Xu Ling didn't answer because he didn't want to. However, the disciple who spoke didn't intend to let him off.
Since there was competition in the Cloud Roll, it was naturally better to suppress the other party.
However, when the disciple on the Cloud List was about to speak again, his body suddenly tensed up as he felt a gaze on him. The gaze contained an extremely shocking power that was boundlessly overbearing. The extremely terrifying power suppressed him and made it difficult for him to move.
He turned his head with difficulty and looked at the pair of eyes with a horrified expression.
It was Gao Hongjing.
No matter what, Xu Ling was Gao Hongjing's follower and had done many things for Gao Hongjing. If someone wanted to target Xu Ling, Gao Hongjing wouldn't stand by and do nothing. Otherwise, it would be disappointing.
Under the deterrence of the gaze, the disciple on the Cloud List shut his mouth and didn't dare to say anything. Gao Hongjing also withdrew his gaze and ignored him.
For a moment, the disciples on the Cloud List fell silent.
After all, other than Bai Xiyue who was ranked third and Fu Yunxiao who was ranked first, the others didn't have the confidence to confront Gao Hongjing head-on.
Since the Outer Sect Grand Competition five years ago, the gap in strength between the top three and the rest had already existed. Moreover, the top three on the previous Cloud List had cultivated Lower Sacred Class cultivation methods or martial arts techniques. It was still unknown to what level their strength had reached.
Gao Hongjing's gaze turned and fell on Chen Zong. His gaze seemed to be able to see through Chen Zong. Chen Zong frowned slightly. His perception was extremely sharp. When he was stared at by someone, he would feel it. Moreover, Gao Hongjing's gaze was so overbearing.
Turning his head to look, Chen Zong's eyes suddenly met with Gao Hongjing's eyes. The invisible gaze seemed to have turned into a substance and collided with each other in the void with their respective wills.
There seemed to be sparks bursting and splashing. The collision of the invisible forces caused the air to distort like water.
There weren't many people who could sense this scene. Only the top ten on the previous Cloud List could sense it and they were all surprised.
Gao Hongjing's strength was obvious to all. Powerful strength gave Gao Hongjing an amazing will, which could be seen through his gaze. This was normal.
However, this newly promoted Heaven-grade disciple, Chen Zong, could do the same. It proved that besides his outstanding talent, it also showed that he had an extremely strong will and had excellent control over his own essence, Qi, and spirit.
Rare!
For a moment, many of the top ten on the Cloud List paid more attention to Chen Zong. Perhaps this person would bring them some surprises.
This Cloud List Battle might be more interesting than the previous ones.
After defeating his opponent with one finger, Chen Zong naturally became the new champion. He guarded a ring and waited for others to challenge him.
Not long after, someone jumped into the ring and issued a challenge.
With a shake of the sword, the body of the sword trembled slightly and emitted a myriad of sword lights. It was as if a rainstorm was descending from the sky, and it carried an earth-shattering might as it blasted towards Chen Zong like lightning.
Under this sword, thousands of clouds surged and intertwined with the rainstorm-like sword lights. This powerful sword had many more changes and could confuse the opponent.
Such a brilliant sword could exert an indescribable magical effect. Unfortunately, the opponent was Chen Zong.
With just a glance, Chen Zong saw the flaw of this sword clearly and completely grasped it.
The Dark Light Sword at his waist shot out in an instant. The body of the sword couldn't be seen, only a ray of extremely bright and dazzling light pierced through the sky with heart-palpitating sharpness.
This sword was abundant and irresistible.
This sword could split everything.
This sword was invincible.
Shatter! Shatter!
The rainstorm-like sword lights were shattered in an instant, and the clouds and mist exploded.
This extremely terrifying sword strike directly landed on the sword that the other party had barely managed to retrieve to defend himself. An extremely frightening power exploded forth. It was as if an enormous power could shatter a mountain, causing the sword to bend. The enormous power struck the other party's chest, causing a loud sound similar to that of a drum. The other party was instantly sent flying.
Defeated!
Another sword move.
"What a brilliant swordsmanship." In the last Cloud List, many swordsman's eyes lit up slightly.
Of course, they all wanted to keep their ranking on the Cloud List and strive to reach a higher level, but they also wanted to fight with masters to sharpen themselves and improve their Martial Arts.
The competition for the Cloud List was just for the moment, but the road of Martial Arts was a lifetime.
Chen Zong's arena was not far away from Yu Nianxin's arena. Therefore, seeing Chen Zong defeat his opponent to become the champion and defeat his opponent again, Yu Nianxin smiled sincerely.
Chen Zong unsheathed the Dark Light Sword, but didn't put it back. He held it in his hand, and a sharp aura rose to the sky and surrounded him. It was like a never-ending stream of water, forming a perfect cycle.
The strength that Chen Zong showed in the two consecutive battles was amazing. For a moment, no one dared to challenge him again.
However, according to the rules, only 69 people were allowed to challenge in succession in each of the 72 arenas, and the interval between challenges couldn't be more than 60 breaths.
In other words, if no one challenged the arena for more than 60 breaths, according to the rules, the champion of the arena would immediately advance to the next stage of the competition.
Even if the champion's strength was not so strong.
Therefore, in less than 60 breaths, another person jumped into the arena and challenged Chen Zong.
Seeing Chen Zong's powerful strength, the challenger looked dignified. He didn't attack at once, but moved quickly and circled around the arena. He observed carefully while walking at a high speed, trying to find Chen Zong's flaw and attack him.
Chen Zong knew the opponent's intention very well, so he directly exposed a small flaw. The opponent's eyes lit up and he immediately seized this small flaw to attack.
The knife light was bright and cold. It tore through the sky and was dazzling. The wind and clouds were surging, and the momentum was mighty.
This knife seemed to split the arena into two halves.
Chen Zong didn't move at all. He looked calm, as if he didn't feel anything.
Just as that astonishing and dazzling blade light was about to slash down with the momentum of the wind and clouds, the Profound Light Sword flicked up from the bottom and turned, collapsing the blade. The body of the sword followed the blade and slashed forward vertically, like an antelope hanging the horn of a heavenly steed soaring across the sky, and stopped at the opponent's neck with a profound and unrestrained profundity.
The sharp blade was extremely cold, causing the challenger to be startled and feel a chill run down his spine.
There was no doubt that he was completely defeated.
After saluting Chen Zong to show his gratitude for his mercy, the challenger turned around and jumped out of the arena.
In the third battle, Chen Zong won and continued to be the champion. Although he didn't consume much of his strength, there was still an invisible force that made Chen Zong's essence, qi, and spirit at the peak.
In the fourth battle, the challenger's strength was slightly stronger, but he was still no match for Chen Zong. He was defeated by one sword.
The fifth battle!
The sixth battle!
The seventh battle!
In the blink of an eye, ten consecutive battles had been fought. Chen Zong won all of them easily.
One sword strike!
No matter who his opponent was, they were all defeated with one sword strike.
"This boy is not bad." The Elder presiding over the Outer Sect Great Competition looked at Chen Zong and secretly nodded.
In the ten battles, even though he had defeated his opponent with a single strike, from that single strike, one could more or less tell that Chen Zong's swordsmanship was rather high. Amongst the outer sect disciples, he could definitely be ranked amongst the best.
On top of that, although his cultivation was only at the peak of the Transcendent Eighth Layer, making it impossible for him to enter the top one hundred Outer Sect disciples, the purity of his Spiritual Energy far surpassed that of many Outer Sect disciples, allowing him to rank among the best.
The purity of one's Spirit Energy was closely related to one's strength.
This meant that this child had cultivated a Spirit Level Top Grade Cultivation Method, and had cultivated it to a very high level.
With the Elder's eyesight, he could naturally see that Chen Zong hadn't used his full strength in these ten battles. However, it was difficult to say how much strength he had used.
