"Chen Zong, Yu Huawen has been defeated. It's your turn now." Huang Ce, who was in the second turn of the Jin Training State, pointed his sword at Chen Zong and said coldly.
It was a new month, and the glory of the Seven Stars had been targeted for a long time. Yu Huawen was the first to be challenged, because everyone could see that he was the weakest among the Seven Sword Stars.
As expected, Yu Huawen was defeated by a disciple in the second turn of the Jin Training State named Shen Rudao.
Interestingly, Chen Zong was only challenged by one person, Huang Ce, who had been defeated by him before. Unlike the other Seven Stars, all of them were challenged by dozens of people.
Liu Men was probably the reason for the challenge, to deter the others.
"If I can defeat you once, I can defeat you again." Chen Zong said calmly.
"What a joke. You were just lucky last time. This time, you will lose for sure." Huang Ce said angrily. In the month after his defeat, he had been training harder than usual. Compared to before, his strength had indeed improved a lot.
Moreover, the low-class Earth Level movement he had chosen before was not at the entry level, so he could not use it. Now that he had reached the entry level, he could use it in battle.
Chen Zong pulled out his ceremonial sword. The blade shone like autumn water.
Huang Ce's sword was like an erupting volcano. The sword light was fierce. Compared to a month ago, it was indeed different. It was faster and fiercer.
In the month, he had received some guidance from the disciples of the Liu Men, so his improvement was obvious.
However, even though he had improved, Chen Zong had also improved, and it was even greater.
After reaching the second stage of the Vital Force, Chen Zong's Inner Strength became even more powerful. However, the purity of his Inner Strength remained the same. It couldn't be helped. Chen Zong's original Inner Strength was already quite pure. A Low-Grade Earth Level Martial Art wouldn't be able to purify it. Chen Zong was also glad that he didn't choose the Vital Force.
The sword was like a gust of wind, but also like cutting the wind. It was so fast that it directly cut off the sword light and counterattacked.
Huang Ce's expression changed slightly. He suddenly used his movement technique and circled around Chen Zong like a bird. He appeared on Chen Zong's left side and attacked again.
Under the influence of the fierce inner strength, the power of the Volcano Sword Art became even more tyrannical.
Boom, boom, boom. Every sword strike that he unleashed with all his strength produced an astonishing whistling sound, and the air seemed to become scorching hot because of it.
Without holding anything back, Huang Ce attacked with his full strength. This attack was even stronger than the previous one.
"Cutting Wind!"
With a soft hum, the Ritual Sword seemed to have disappeared. It turned into a gust of wind, but it didn't seem like wind at all. Sword after sword, light and silent. When it blew past, Huang Ce's ferocious sword light was all cut off and then dissipated.
"Volcanic Sword Explosion!" Huang Ce's expression turned serious as he executed his ultimate move. In an instant, it was as if a volcano had erupted, incomparably terrifying.
"Then you can try the eleventh move of the Severing Wind Sword Art." Chen Zong let out a soft groan. His expression turned solemn at first, but then it seemed to melt into a smile. He swung the sword in his hand. With a flash of sword light, the sword disappeared as if it had never existed. Even the sound could not be heard. "Silent Wind Chant!"
The Volcanic Sword Explosion melted silently, and Huang Ce flew backward. He felt as if his chest had been shattered. Fortunately, after a few years of experience, he was used to keeping a piece of metal close to his chest.
"Chen Zong has become stronger."
"How terrifying."
In the distance, Jiang Bai Liu and Huo Yihong's expressions were extremely ugly.
In the past month, they had been training hard and had made significant progress. Now that they saw the strength displayed by Chen Zong, they realized that not only did they not catch up, but the gap between them seemed to have widened.
Without a doubt, Chen Zong had preserved the glory of the Seven Rising Stars.
Li Beiyu clenched his right fist. He had arranged for Huang Ce to challenge Chen Zong. In order to defeat Chen Zong, he had specially taught Huang Ce for more than ten days. He didn't expect Huang Ce to be such a piece of trash.
"You, go and deal with him." Li Beiyu said to the person beside him. This was a Third Turn Qi Refining disciple from the Liu Sect.
"Okay." The Liu Sect disciple nodded and strode towards Chen Zong. His speed was very fast, and he blocked Chen Zong's path.
"Chen Shidi, Senior Brother, my name is Zhu Hu. I saw that your swordsmanship was superior to mine, so I came to ask for your guidance." As soon as he finished speaking, the Third Turn Qi Refining disciple drew his ceremonial sword and stabbed towards Chen Zong.
Chen Zong took a step forward and used the Eight Directions Four Pole Steps. After dodging the opponent's sword, he waved his sword, bringing along a dazzling sword light. It was as if a gust of wind had blown past, pointing towards the opponent's throat.
"Good." The Third Turn Qi Refining disciple shouted. His sword was faster and fiercer, and he was still using his Inner Force. The advantage of a Third Turn Qi Refining disciple was immediately displayed. Whether in terms of strength or speed, he was superior to Chen Zong. Sword after sword, he continuously forced Chen Zong to retreat.
Although this person was a Third Turn Qi Refining disciple, he was not a disciple on the Metal Sword Ranking, so he was not restricted by the rules of the Academy.
Chen Zong kept retreating. Every time their swords collided, he would feel his arm tremble and his palm go numb. He had no choice but to use the Eight Directions Four Pole Steps to the extreme.
After a month, Chen Zong had already mastered the Eight Directions Four Pole Steps. With one step, his body changed, and he moved in all directions, using this to deal with his opponent.
Relying on the Eight Directions Four Pole Steps and his outstanding swordsmanship, Chen Zong was able to deal with a Third Turn Qi Refining disciple. One had to know that the Third Turn Qi Refining disciple in the True Sword Academy was different from the Third Turn Qi Refining disciple in the outside world.
Everyone around was stunned. Huang Ce's face was full of shock. Chen Zong's strength was above his, but he did not expect it to be so much stronger. Jiang Bailiu and Huo Yihong were even more shocked.
"You have some skills." The Third Turn Qi Refining disciple was also stunned. He did not expect a First Turn Qi Refining disciple to be able to withstand his sword for so long, even if he did not use his full strength.
"Take this … One Mountain's Only!"
He held the sword with both hands and raised it. His inner strength exploded, and he slashed down heavily. This was one of the ultimate moves of the Three Mountains Swordsmanship. The sword slashed down with great force, as if an invisible mountain was falling from the sky. The terrifying sword pressure suddenly attacked Chen Zong, making him feel suffocated.
"Silent Wind Chant!"
Chen Zong's eyes focused, but he could not see the flaw in this attack. After all, his opponent's cultivation was much higher than his, and his swordsmanship was extremely skilled. He had already mastered it.
What was perfection?
Without any flaw, it was perfection.
Of course, this was not absolute, but it was to a certain extent.
If he could not find the flaw, then he would have to face it head-on.
The sword light that seemed to have disappeared completely pierced out, like an invisible wind blowing over.
However, the difference in strength was too great, and the wind was directly shattered.
The two swords collided. Chen Zong felt his arm tremble, and the web between his thumb and forefinger split open. His arm was shaken, and his whole body was pushed back. Blood dripped from the corner of his mouth.
"Good, take this!" Zhu Hu took a step forward, raised his sword, and once again used the One Mountain's Only, and slashed down fiercely.
This was clearly an opportunity to severely injure Chen Zong. Even if the matter was investigated, it could be said that both sides were learning from each other. With Liu Men as his backing, he could still argue and not be punished.
"A Third Transformation Stage cultivator against a First Transformation Stage cultivator. What a disgrace." The voice came from afar. Then, a purple sword light with specks of starlight seemed to have pierced through countless dimensions, and arrived in an instant.
The purple sword light with specks of starlight revealed a demonic aura.
One sword, just one sword, broke Zhu Hu's One Mountain's Only. At the same time, he was sent flying a few meters, and fell to the ground, rolling a few times. He could not help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Demon Sword Star!" Li Beiyu's expression changed drastically. Zhu Hu, who was lying on the ground, was even more shocked.
Demon Sword Star, one of the Seven Sword Stars. Why would he interfere in this matter?
A man wearing a light purple sword robe walked to Chen Zong's side, with a smile like a spring breeze on his face. "Chen Shidi, are you seriously injured?"
"I'm fine. Thank you, Senior." Chen Zong suppressed his confusion and expressed his gratitude.
He looked like he was smiling like a spring breeze, but Chen Zong felt that there was a demonic aura behind it.
"Senior Fei, are you going to interfere in this matter?" Li Beiyu braced himself and asked. This was a master on the same level as the leader of Liu Men.
"Do you have a problem with that?" Demon Sword Star Fei Yuanji glanced at him, and a sharp light flashed in the corner of his eyes, causing Li Beiyu to tremble in fear.
It was rumored that Demon Sword Star was the most eccentric and temperamental person. One second he was smiling, the next he could be murderous. Li Beiyu did not dare to offend him.
"No, no, no." Li Beiyu hurriedly said, and secretly glanced at Chen Zong. He could only think that Chen Zong was lucky to have Demon Sword Star stand up for him. At the same time, he was very confused. What was the relationship between Chen Zong and Demon Sword Star?
"I don't care if it's a normal challenge, but if someone wants to cause trouble, they'll have to ask the sword in my hand first." Fei Yuanji's eyes emitted a shocking coldness. In the depths of his eyes, there seemed to be a flash of purple light, which immediately made everyone feel as if they were being sliced apart. No one dared to look at him directly, and they all kept quiet out of fear.
"Chen Shidi, let's go." Fei Yuanji retracted his gaze, and the spring breeze smile returned to his face.
"Thank you, Senior Fei." Chen Zong expressed his gratitude again, but at the same time, he was even more confused.
"Chen Shidi, are you confused as to why I stood up for you?" Fei Yuanji seemed to have seen through Chen Zong's confusion. His tone was neither fast nor slow, and it sounded very comfortable.
"Senior Fei explained it to me." Chen Zong admitted directly.
"We're from the same sect." Fei Yuanji smiled. "If you have any problems in the future, Chen Shidi can come find me."
After that, Fei Yuanji walked to the other side.
"Same sect?" Chen Zong muttered. It sounded easy to understand. He was a disciple of the Real Sword Academy, and Fei Yuanji was also a disciple of the Real Sword Academy. They were indeed from the same sect.
However, this was not enough reason for Fei Yuanji to help him.
It could be said that Fei Yuanji did things according to his whims and whims. After all, his opponent was Demon Sword Star, so this was possible.
Chen Zong pondered as he walked. "It's just that this Senior Brother of his seems to be referring to something else."
Then, as if he thought of something, Chen Zong's expression suddenly changed.
"Have you figured it out?" Fei Yuanji turned around and glanced at Chen Zong's back, and a mysterious smile flashed across his face.
"If my guess is correct, then Fei Yuanji may not be the only one in the Real Sword Academy. There may be more," Chen Zong could not help but be shocked. "Even the Four Great Academies are like this."
If the Four Great Academies were like this, then what about other places?
