Four rounds had passed, and it was time for the last round.
Wang Yangcheng was deep in thought. His eyes continued to wander among the core elders. Just as he was about to name someone, Du Ji opened his mouth.
"Sect Leader Wang, I recommend someone," Du Ji said. "Song Ren, you go."
Hearing this, the elders of the Hundred Weapon Sect trembled and looked at the Sect Leader in shock.
The elder who was named obviously did not expect this, but under the gaze of the Sect Leader, he immediately walked out and stood in front of the crowd.
Seeing where this person came out, the members of the Ice Fire Alliance were shocked!
A core elder!
It was a core elder!
There was no doubt that the core elders of any sect were at the peak of Level Eight, and they were the best of the best. Among the Level Eight Celestial Masters, they were superior. Song Ren was definitely stronger than the previous elders. Lu An was only at the middle stage of Level Eight. How could he defeat him?
"Why him?" Wang Yangcheng did not object to this person's strength, because he wanted to find a core elder for this last round. He was just curious why Du Ji had named this person.
Before the Sect Leader spoke, Song Ren cupped his hands and said to Wang Yangcheng and Lu An, "Sect Leader Wang, League Leader Lu, I'm Song Ren, and I'm proficient in … daggers!"
Daggers?!
Hearing this, all the members of the Ice Fire Alliance gasped in shock! Even Liu Yi frowned. She did not expect something like this to happen!
Until now, they had never seen a Level Eight Celestial Master who used daggers. They did not expect the Hundred Weapon Sect to have one, and it was a core elder! It seemed that the Hundred Weapon Sect was indeed worthy of its reputation.
Wang Yangcheng was also stunned, but then he smiled happily and said with satisfaction, "Okay, you two fight!"
After thinking for a while, Wang Yangcheng added, "Since you're proficient in the same weapon, don't even use your Divine Origin Force and Fate Wheel. Just use your physical strength and skills. What do you think? "
"I have no objection," Song Ren said immediately.
"I agree," Lu An also said.
"Okay!" Wang Yangcheng said excitedly, "Let's start!"
Lu An did not rest. He entered the arena again, and so did Song Ren. The two of them stood 500 feet apart. To be honest, both of them had some changes in their hearts.
Even in the Hundred Weapon Sect, the number of people who used a dagger as a weapon could be counted on one hand. Song Ren was the only one among all the elders. Recently, Lu An had become famous all over the world for using daggers as a weapon. After hearing about it, he really wanted to see it for himself.
It was the same for Lu An. He rarely met a Taoist Master who used a dagger. Using the same weapon in a battle would make one want to win even more. Moreover, the other party was a core elder.
Swish —
Light flashed in the hands of both sides, and their weapons appeared in their hands. Lu An's weapon was, of course, the dark purple dagger that Yang Meiren had made for him with her Fate Wheel. After it had been forged, the suppressive force was much less, but it was hard enough. Other than that, there was nothing special about it. Compared to Lu An's dagger, the elder's dagger was obviously more powerful. The moment it appeared, the surrounding space showed signs of being pierced.
How sharp!
Lu An's eyes turned slightly cold. The other party's dagger had only casually swept through the air, and a black gap had appeared in the space. With the strength that the other party had just used, it was impossible for him to do so. In other words, the dagger itself had a special sharpness.
On the platform, everyone stared at the two of them intently. They found that apart from the difference in the quality of their weapons, the way they held their daggers was different.
Both of them held a dagger in each hand, but Lu An held it in a reverse grip, while Song Ren held it in a forward grip. However, there was no doubt that Song Ren's forward grip was the way everyone imagined to use a dagger. After all, the main attack of a dagger was to 'stab'. The 'stab' from a forward grip was stronger, and the distance was longer.
"Fight." Du Ji said personally.
Bang!
Bang!
As soon as the words were spoken, both of them rushed towards each other at the same time. However, due to the difference in strength, there was no doubt that Song Ren was much faster than Lu An.
Lu An's forward speed was very slow, even compared to his own strength. It was obvious that he deliberately reduced his speed in order to make himself move.
Song Ren also held back his speed. The essence of a dagger was in close-range combat, and not in a wide range or a single strike. In order to make them fight, both of them reduced their speed to a controllable range.
Whoosh!
Both of them did not attack in advance. They only attacked at the same time when they were only five feet apart!
Ding!
Lu An's left hand flicked upwards, and his reverse grip collided with Song Ren's dagger. His strength was not inferior to his opponent's as he pushed his opponent's dagger away. At the same time, he suddenly turned sideways and made a move before anything happened. He changed the direction of his body, and the dagger in his right hand went straight for Song Ren's chest!
Bang!
There was a loud sound. Lu An's body was immediately sent flying. He flew 300 feet before he could barely stop on the ground, staggering.
"Cough cough!"
Lu An frowned. His breathing was chaotic, and he was forced to cough.
It was too fast.
It was so fast that he could not see it clearly. There was no way to block it!
Everyone on the platform was also frowning. In fact, Lu An's dodge had actually predicted the movement of Song Ren's dagger. Even so, the difference in speed between the two of them was too great. Lu An's dagger did not hit Song Ren at all. Instead, it was kicked out by Song Ren after dodging.
Difference.
A difference that could not be made up.
Song Ren did not chase after him. Lu An looked at his opponent, panting. If he fought in the same way as he did in the Fu Clan, he would have a chance to block Song Ren's dagger with his bones. However, this was just a friendly match. There was no need to do so. In a different environment, there were different ways to fight. Even if he lost, he would not do so.
"Phew …"
Lu An forced himself to catch his breath. He stood up straight and looked into the distance.
Obviously, Song Ren did not want to hurt him. Otherwise, Song Ren would have had a chance to severely injure him. Lu An knew that if he had any self-awareness, he should have admitted defeat.
However … he could not use his Fate Wheel, special strength, or the advantage of the Bone of the Emperor. Was there really nothing he could do?
Lu An had a solemn look in his eyes. He still remembered the time when he was at Starfire Academy. Every time the man in the black fog defeated him and he had such thoughts, the man in the black fog would forcefully pull him up and continue to beat him until he had no choice but to fight desperately to reduce the pain. It was in this kind of environment that he was able to hone his current skills.
Thinking of the man in the black fog, Lu An took a deep breath and held the daggers in his hands tightly.
"You chose the weapon yourself. Since you have chosen it, don't lose to any weapon."
Lu An frowned. Looking at the two daggers in his hands, he clenched them tightly again.
In order not to annoy Song Ren and not to give up, he set a goal for himself.
Ten breaths.
As long as he could fight with Song Ren for more than ten breaths, he would not be so shameless as to admit defeat.
After making up his mind, Lu An dashed toward Song Ren in an instant!
Again?!
Song Ren frowned. So did the people from the Hundred Soldier Sect. Obviously, he had held back. How could Song Ren be so untactful?
Since Song Ren was untactful, he had to use more force.
Whoosh!
The moment Lu An dashed in front of Song Ren, Song Ren's dagger was the first to reach Lu An's face. Song Ren was holding the dagger and thrusting it out. He knew that if Lu An had nowhere to hide, the Sect Leader in the distance would forcibly stop the attack to prevent any accidents from happening. Therefore, Song Ren had no qualms about attacking.
Du Ji did not attack. Lu An's body turned to one side, and the dagger brushed past the tip of Lu An's nose. In an instant, Song Ren dashed out from the side!
Did he dodge it?
Song Ren frowned. It seemed that although his attack speed had increased, his moves were still too ordinary. That was why Song Ren could predict and dodge it.
After dodging the attack, Lu An was already on Song Ren's right side. Song Ren raised his left hand and stabbed toward Lu An's Dantian. However, he stopped halfway.
Lu An's two daggers did not attack at all. Instead, they crossed in front of his body. He could not sense Song Ren's movements at such a close distance. Therefore, he tried his best to attack indiscriminately. Even if Song Ren hit him, he would hit Song Ren's arm.
Song Ren could not accept being injured while fighting with an opponent who was so much weaker than him.
Therefore …
Whoosh!
Lu An successfully came behind Song Ren. At the same time, the crossed daggers in front of his chest moved to the outside. He turned his hand and stabbed toward Song Ren's back!
Song Ren's eyes turned cold. He had realized that Lu An might take the opportunity to attack from behind. He immediately moved his body forward. At the same time, he turned his hand and stabbed toward Lu An's body again.
The battle of daggers was a competition of reaction time. Song Ren knew that he would not lose!
Bang!
Song Ren's body shook. Just as he was about to raise his thigh, Lu An's curled leg caught him. He could not even turn his body!
In an instant, Song Ren was dumbfounded!
