"Clang!"
The scabbard knocked away her opponent's blade. Lin Muyu thrust her longsword forward, and the Dragon Soul Sword, along with the scabbard, pierced towards Ouyang Jingtian. The battle energy around the scabbard formed a spiral of flame energy.
Ouyang Jingtian was shocked. He hurriedly moved his sword and shook his wrist. Suddenly, the sword twisted like a poisonous snake and twisted around the Dragon Soul Sword. "Twisting Sword Technique!"
In an instant, Lin Muyu's battle qi was like a clay ox entering the sea. Naturally, Lin Muyu's attack was ineffective. However, he wasn't in a hurry. He suddenly loosened his grip and the Dragon Spirit Sword was "seized" by Ouyang Jingtian's sword. At the same time, Lin Muyu's fist was surrounded by battle qi as he punched his opponent's shoulder.
Ouyang Jingtian hurriedly turned his body to dodge. At the same time, he swept his sword horizontally.
"Hua!"
Lin Muyu bent her body and dodged the attack. At the same time, she raised her finger, and lightning flashed between her finger and the Dragon Spirit Sword. The "seized" Dragon Spirit Sword spun around as if it had a mind of its own and heavily "stabbed" Ouyang Jingtian's back with its scabbard attached.
"Bang!"
Ouyang Jingtian had suffered a heavy blow. How could he withstand it? Blood was already flowing out of his mouth. His eyes were filled with shock as he looked at the Dragon Spiritual Sword that had returned to Lin Muyu's hand.
"I lost …"
He stood still and said, "Imperial Guard Lin Muyu is worthy of her reputation. I, Ouyang Jingtian, am convinced. But … is it the Imperial Sword Technique?"
Lin Muyu nodded, "It is indeed a kind of Imperial Sword Technique. Thank you for letting me win."
"Thank you for your advice …"
…
After the winner was decided, Lin Muyu's name was immediately placed in the top 24.
When she returned to the viewing platform, Chu Huaiying, Feng Jixing, and the others congratulated her. Although she was only in the top 24, Lin Muyu had already made a name for herself in public.
There wasn't much suspense in the following matches. Zhen Fang, Yuwen Lian, Ling Feng, and the other elites of the Imperial Capital easily won their matches one after another. Not long after, the names of 24 people were listed on the wooden board. They were painted with golden paint and looked to be sparkling under the sunlight.
The matches were still going on.
There were fewer and fewer people left in the selection area of the viewing platform. There were only 24 people left, and many of them were familiar with each other. Zhen Fang turned a blind eye to Lin Muyu, Feng Jixing, and the rest. His resentment was too deep. On the other hand, Tang Bin from the Seven Seas Tang Sect was able to chat with Zhen Fang, Yuwen Lian, and the rest. It was as if they were all graduates from the Imperial Capital's Ares College and could be considered classmates.
Yuwen Lian held a thin sword in his hand, a faint smile on his face. "Young Lord Tang's Fire Fox Seal has already reached the seventh layer. This is truly worthy of celebration. It seems that the future leader of the Seven Seas Tang Sect will be none other than young lord Tang."
Tang Bin smiled. "You flatter me, Major General Yuwen. I, Tang Bin, am not worthy. I only hope to be in the top ten of this tournament."
"With the cultivation of the seventh level of the Fire Fox Seal, you will definitely be in the top 10. Young Master need not worry, ha …"
Ling Feng, who was at the side, had a tinge of worry as he said, "This year's Sword Duelling Tournament is not going to be simple. Let's see how the next round goes. Once they meet Feng Jixing, Qin Lei, Chu Huaiying, and Lin Muyu, these four troublesome fellows, I'm afraid it will not be easy for anyone to win. Young Duke Zhenfang, what do you think?
Zhen Fang's expression was calm, and he said, "I'll just do my best. As for the outcome, let the heavens decide!"
"Heh, Young Duke has a good cultivation base. However, I heard that when you were a deacon in the Divine Temple, you once sparred with Lin Muyu and the outcome was not decided. It seems that Lin Muyu does have some ability."
It was clear that Zhen Fang was at a disadvantage in that sparring match. In an instant, Ling Feng's words caused Zhen Fang's face to turn ashen. He snorted, "That Lin Muyu … is just an opportunistic piece of trash. Just wait and see!"
"Heh, we are naturally waiting to watch a good show! Oh right, I heard that Young Duke's elder sister, the beauty ranked third on the Beauty List, Cheng Xiang, has recently been in close contact with one of the Imperial Guards, Chu Huaiying. It seems that the Divine Marquis Residence also values the status of the Imperial Guards and wants a good marriage? "Ling Feng said with a smile that did not reach his eyes.
In an instant, Zhen Fang was infuriated. He suddenly pulled out half of his sword and shouted, "Ling Feng, if you dare to say another word, I will cut off your tongue and eat it with wine, do you believe me? Who does Chu Huaiying think he is? How can a lowly commoner like him be worthy of my elder sister? My elder sister is just bewitched. After some time, she will naturally realize that Chu Huaiying is not worthy of her. "
"Is that so?"
Ling Feng laughed and cupped his fists, "I misspoke just now, I hope Young Duke can forgive me."
"Hmph!"
While Zhen Fang, Ling Feng, Tang Bin and the others were 'chatting happily', Chu Huaiying, Feng Jixing, Qin Lei, Qin Yan and the others were listening from afar. Their voices were too loud, it was hard not to hear them. Feng Jixing wiped his Windcutter Blade and said with a faint smile, "The Divine Marquis Residence, the Protector General's Residence and the Stabilizing General's Residence have been fighting openly and secretly in the capital. It is rare for these people to be able to talk together, how hypocritical."
As he spoke, Feng Jixing raised his head to look at Chu Huaiying and said, "Do you really like Zhenxiang?"
Chu Huaiying was stunned and said, "Miss Zhenxiang's talent and appearance have indeed moved my heart. Of course, I really like her. Why, will General Feng object to us? Although … I also know that it will be difficult. "
Feng Jixing smiled. "Life is short, and it's not easy to meet a woman who can move your heart. Since you like her, you should be courageous enough to pursue her. As your friend, I will naturally support you. However, the relationship between the Divine Marquis Residence and the Royal Guards is very tense. I'm afraid this path will not be easy."
Chu Huaiying's expression dimmed, "I know …"
Feng Jixing smiled and said, "What do you guys think about Old Chu and Zhenxiang?"
Qin Lei said, "I don't understand matters between men and women."
Qin Yan said, "Elder Brother doesn't understand, and I don't want to understand …"
Feng Jixing was speechless, "Yu, what do you think?"
Lin Muyu laid on the cold stone steps and said slowly, "Just like what Brother Feng Jixing said, if you like someone, you should courageously pursue them. Don't let yourself regret it. However, Brother Chu Huaiying really needs to protect himself. Zeng Yifan is ruthless, who knows what he will do."
Chu Huaiying nodded, "Yes, I know what I am doing!"
…
At this time, the second round of matchups had already been decided. There were a total of twelve groups, and this time, it was considered a tit for tat. Several groups were actually strong opponents —
Feng Jixing versus Tang Bin
Lin Muyu versus Lingfeng
Chu Huaiying versus Zhenfang
As for Qin Lei and Qin Yan, they were quite lucky. The opponents they faced were not too strong, and some had not even stepped into the Heavenly Realm. After all, it was not easy to reach the Heavenly Realm. There were not many people who could step into the Heavenly Realm before the age of 35. Therefore, in the eyes of others, Lin Muyu, Chu Huaiying, and Feng Jixing were all rare geniuses.
Lifting his sword, Feng Jixing patted the dust off his battle robe and smiled, "I'm going."
"Be careful, Tang Bin's Fire Fox Seal is very powerful!" Chu Huaiying warned.
"Don't worry, he is not my opponent."
Feng Jixing's confidence was bordering on arrogance, but no one doubted his arrogance. He was the youngest commander in the entire empire, and he was in charge of the capital's thirty thousand imperial guards and close to twenty thousand scattered troops. His own strength was unquestionable.
…
On the other hand, Tang Bin had a calm expression. Standing on the tournament stage, he cupped his fists and smiled, "Tang Bin has experienced Commander Feng Jixing's brilliant moves. I didn't expect that we would meet so early in this year's Sword Duel Tournament. What a coincidence."
Feng Jixing smiled slightly, "Please show mercy, Young Master Tang Bin. Don't let me lose too badly."
"You must be joking. Come on."
"Alright!"
Feng Jixing held his sword horizontally, and with a wolf howl, the Purple Electric Flame Wolf climbed onto his shoulder. The thunder and lightning caused by his Martial Soul poured into the sword, and his battle robe immediately fluttered. In addition to his sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, many girls in the capital went crazy and screamed before he even made a move.
Tang Bin still fought with his bare fists. He was proficient in the Fire Fox Seal Palm Technique, so naturally, he would not be afraid of any sword or saber.
"Here it comes!"
Feng Jixing took the initiative to attack. With a swing of the Wind Cutter Sword, the wind suddenly rose, and with the power of the law of wind, it was a swift slash — Desert Gale!
Tang Bin did not dare to underestimate it. He took half a step back and opened his left palm. Flames surged, and a seal appeared on his palm. He shouted, "Light Seal!"
The flames and the gale intersected and exploded. Feng Jixing and Tang Bin each took a few steps back. After stabilizing their breath, they rushed to attack again. Feng Jixing swept across the air and quickly gathered his battle qi. The battle qi turned into scorching hot sand that lingered around the sword, and a very fast attack once again blasted toward his opponent — Hot Sand Scorching Gold!
Tang Bin's expression did not change. He waved his palms, and the Fire Fox Seal appeared on his palm again. He raised both palms and launched the third Fire Fox Seal — Scorching Flame Seal!
"Hong!"
The raging flames quickly engulfed the front, and Feng Jixing brandished his sword and rushed out of the flames. The Hot Sand Scorching Gold slashed heavily on the opponent's palm seal, and quickly broke it. Feng Jixing ignored the flames on his cloak. His whole body was raging with lightning, and he suddenly slashed down from above. It was the fourth style of his self-created Wind Walking Saber Technique — Wild Thunder Saber!
Tang Bin looked up at the sky, and the calmness on his face finally showed some fluctuations. He could feel how powerful and overbearing Feng Jixing's saber was. He opened his palm and directly skipped the fifth level of the Fire Fox Seal, and directly used the sixth level — God Concentration Seal!
In an instant, the golden light shone brightly. Tang Bin raised his palm and blasted out like a divine oracle!
"Boom!"
The collision of energy in the air formed an impact, and it directly blew the group of nobles on the viewing platform until they let out sharp cries.
In the end, under the palm of the God Concentration Seal, a little blood flowed out from the corner of Feng Jixing's mouth. But his body was in the air, and he didn't land. He directly urged his battle energy, and the Purple Electric Flame Wolf howled. He raised the saber with both hands, and immediately, a Fiendgod Star actually appeared behind him. His battle energy was so strong that it was a little scary.
"Oh my god …"
Qin Yan was flabbergasted. "When did Feng Jixing cultivate to this level?"
Qin Lei squinted his eyes. "This is the eighth style of his self-created Wind Walking Saber Technique — Devouring Demonic Saber. I've experienced this move before … It's really f * cking powerful. It directly hit me until I vomited blood …"
…
In the arena, Tang Bin didn't feel good. Seeing that Feng Jixing's tyrannical saber was about to land, he could only brace himself and face it. Flames lingered in his palm, and he directly used his strongest move — Five Qi Seal!
Immediately, the Five Qi of Fate in the world crazily surged towards Tang Bin. Metal, wood, water, fire, earth, they mutually reinforced and restrained each other. They grew and multiplied endlessly, and turned into a palm force that soared into the sky!
"Bam!"
In the air, flames and lightning interweaved together, and a violent wind almost engulfed the entire battling platform.
In an instant, the flames were extinguished, and Feng Jixing floated down to the ground. Half of the white robe behind him was burned. He slapped out the flames, and his expression was very calm as he said indifferently, "Did I win?"
"Pfft …"
Tang Bin vomited a mouthful of fresh blood, and the ground around him was filled with crisscrossed saber marks. He swayed on the spot, cupped his fists, and said with a trembling voice, "Commander Feng Jixing's cultivation is indeed extraordinary. Tang Bin loses wholeheartedly!"
"Thank you for letting me win. I'll treat Young Master Tang Bin to a drink later!"
"Okay!"
