At this point in the rookie ranking competition, the entire arena seemed to belong to Yi Yun and Chu Xiaoran. Everyone else had become a foil to them.
When people saw these people's matches, they only had one thought in their minds, and that was …
Quickly finish your matches and let Yi Yun and Chu Xiaoran go on stage.
The rookies that could still go on stage were the best amongst the rookies. They had grown up with all sorts of halos, but now they were just supporting characters on stage. This made them feel helpless, but they had no choice but to admit that Yi Yun and Chu Xiaoran were indeed not on the same level as them.
The referee had deliberately arranged for Yi Yun and Chu Xiaoran's match to be at the end of today's matches. It was to let Yi Yun and Chu Xiaoran recover to their peak physical condition, so that they could have a match of the best rookies.
The Sun slowly set in the west as dusk fell. Everyone was looking forward to the start of the big battle. The other rookies had already finished their matches, so they were just waiting for Yi Yun and Chu Xiaoran to go on stage.
But at this moment, there was a commotion near the arena's entrance. The slightly crowded crowd began to disperse.
The people who made way were either confused or shocked.
"Oh? What's the matter? "
People looked over and saw a few black-cloaked men at the entrance. And in the middle of these black-cloaked men, there were two elders who strolled in.
They are …
People were stunned, especially the rookies. Most of them had never seen these two old men before, so of course they could not recognize them.
But the rookies vaguely knew those black-cloaked men. Those who wore black cloaks in the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom were law-enforcers.
Law-enforcers? So many law-enforcers?
The rookies were a bit confused. And at this moment, a few strong veteran cultivators recognized the identity of the two old men after being stunned for a while.
"Elder Jian Ge! Elder Cang Yan! Why are they here in the arena!? "
When this was said, the other rookies were stunned when they heard it.
Elder … These two old men. They are Elders!?
To the cultivators present, the Divine City's Elder was a legendary figure in the entire Tai Ah Divine Kingdom. In the entire Tai Ah Divine Kingdom, there might not even be one in 500 years.
What were they doing in the arena?
The Rookies Ranking Competition … was not something that the Elders would pay attention to. In fact, let alone the Rookies Ranking Competition, even if the Arena's first ranked Qin Haotian was challenged by the second or third ranked Rookies, the Elders would not come to watch. At most, he would only be able to look at the Image Disk Array.
Every year, there would be first place in the Divine City. Which year's first place on the Earth Rankings would not be challenged thirty, forty, or even a hundred or eighty times during the one or two months that they dominated the rankings? How could the elders be so free to come and watch every time?
Usually, the Elder would not appear in the arena. It should be said that … Usually, the trial takers had no chance to meet the Elders.
For someone like Elder Cang Yan, who would occasionally play the role of an old gatekeeper, the rookie cultivators would have the chance to meet him, but they did not know that he was an elder.
Seeing Cang Yan and Jian Ge sit down in the seats of honor, people were still in a daze. "Are they … here to watch Yi Yun and Chu Xiaoran's battle?"
Upon realizing this possibility, people found it unbelievable. But upon further thought, it seemed like it could only be a battle between Yi Yun and Chu Xiaoran. It was something worth paying attention to!
It's just a rookie ranking competition, and they're letting an elder watch it? "
People looked at each other, unable to understand. No matter how outstanding Yi Yun and Chu Xiaoran's strength was, they were not at Qin Haotian's level. They were still rookies, yet two Elders came together? This was a little unbelievable.
At this moment, Cang Yan and Jian Ge sat calmly in their seats. He sat calmly in his seat. It had been a long time since the two of them personally came to the arena.
They came here to see Yi Yun's understanding of the Saber Truth's 32 Words.
Although the Image Disk Array that was commonly used in the Tai Ah Divine City could record images, it was still lacking to record laws.
Those unclear images could not reflect the charm of the saber truth.
"Yi Yun! Chu Xiaoran! Divine Wilderness Stage! "
The referee spoke. With two Elders here, the referee also felt the pressure.
Yi Yun carried his Thousand Army Saber and walked onto the Divine Wilderness Stage. As for his opponent, Chu Xiaoran, she held a soft sword. Her aura was restrained, and she did not look like an expert.
As Chu Xiaoran walked, she looked at the two elders sitting in the seats of honor, "Are they the Divine City's Elders … The true pillars of the Tai Ah Divine Kingdom. They are stronger than my grandfather, father and master …"
The Chu family that Chu Xiaoran came from may be a family clan with deep heritage, but they had never produced a sage.
The current Chu family's Patriarch was only a peak-human lord.
Chu Xiaoran had her own ambition. She was determined to become the Chu family's first sage, and create a glorious chapter in the Chu family's future. However, this ambition was buried deep in Chu Xiaoran's heart. She did not mention it to anyone.
Now, seeing two sage-level figures at the same time, it touched Chu Xiaoran's nerves once again.
In the future, she wanted to reach this step!
A sage appeared once every 500 years. She wanted to be the strongest person in these 500 years! She could not fail here!
Chu Xiaoran pulled out her sword. She was silent and her aura was completely restrained within her body. Not a single bit leaked out. Only her beautiful eyes could not hide her fighting spirit!
Yi Yun slowly pulled out his Thousand Army Saber, "Chu Xiaoran, I know you are hiding your strength … Just the strength you are showing now is not enough to defeat me. If you don't use your trump card soon, you might not have the chance to use it."
"Thank you for the advice. Make your move." Chu Xiaoran was very calm. She was unprecedentedly serious for this battle. Maybe it was because of the appearance of the two sages that ignited Chu Xiaoran's fighting spirit!
She wanted to win!
At this moment, Yi Yun moved.
His body charged forward like a gust of wind. A terrifying saber beam condensed into a sharp blade beam that slashed down at Chu Xiaoran!
This saber beam filled everyone's vision. Even though they were far away, people felt like a saber was hanging on their necks. It was filled with killing intent!
A terrifying saber!
Chu Xiaoran's pupils constricted as she retreated. With her soft sword in hand, she stabbed forward.
All her Yuan Qi flowed out along with her sword. This Yuan Qi brought with it an indescribable gentle energy as it faced the saber beam!
However, Yi Yun's saber was much sharper than Chu Xiaoran's sword!
With a "Chi Chi Chi" sound, Chu Xiaoran's sword Qi was constantly being sliced. The saber beam was about to hit Chu Xiaoran's beautiful face.
People could not help but exclaim!
Chu Xiaoran was a young girl. It was fine if Qiuniu was sliced, but no one could bear to see Chu Xiaoran being sliced up!
At that critical moment, just as Chu Xiaoran was about to be sliced by the saber beam, Yi Yun's saber beam deviated a little.
Cha!
This saber beam brushed past Chu Xiaoran's cheek and slammed heavily into the purple tungsten floor.
The hard purple tungsten stage suddenly trembled as a four-foot-long saber mark was deeply imprinted on it!
Chu Xiaoran's body floated down a hundred feet before landing lightly on the ground. However … there was still a strand of hair that floated down from her cheek …
"What … happened just now?"
People in the surrounding stands stared with widened eyes.
They had been paying full attention, afraid to miss any exciting moment. But even so, they did not manage to clearly see the exchange between Yi Yun and Chu Xiaoran.
It was too fast. In a blink of an eye, the two of them had separated. Following that, the stage was sliced by the saber beam, making it hard for people to breathe.
"I clearly saw Yi Yun's saber beam arrive in front of Chu Xiaoran. Why didn't it slash down? Did Yi Yun show mercy towards the fairer sex and held back?"
Someone asked.
"Don't be silly." A veteran cultivator shook his head. "Do you think Chu Xiaoran is a weak lady? This is the Hard-Soft concept. Chu Xiaoran had used the Hard-Soft concept to dissipate Yi Yun's strength, but … she was still unable to completely dissipate it … "
Some of the veteran cultivators present were ranked around 2000 on the Earth roll. They saw the battle between Yi Yun and Chu Xiaoran very clearly.
The Hard-Soft concept could dissipate many attacks, but if the difference in strength was too great, it would not be able to reverse the situation.
Many people noticed the strand of hair that had fallen down from Chu Xiaoran's temples. In this first exchange, Yi Yun still had the upper hand.
Yi Yun looked at his saber and recalled the strength from before. He also found it fascinating. His saber had involuntarily changed directions.
Yi Yun said, "Hard-Soft … Moving a thousand pounds with little effort is indeed fascinating! But it is not enough to win. My first saber attack was just a probe. Next, I will use all my strength! "
Probe!?
Upon hearing Yi Yun's words, people were rendered speechless. Such a powerful saber attack was just Yi Yun's probe.
Most of them could not withstand this saber attack at all. They did not even know how to withstand it!
Previously, they knew that Yi Yun was very strong, but they did not know how big the gap was. This time, it gave them an intuitive feeling!
It was no wonder Qiuniu was defeated. They were not Qiuniu, so they did not know the pressure Qiuniu faced Yi Yun in that battle. If they were the ones standing on the stage, they might be able to understand the feeling.
