Li Ke's instant defeat was out of everyone's expectations. No one had expected Li Ke to lose so easily and so inexplicably.
They thought that Li Ke was six stages higher than Chu Xingyun and could force out Chu Xingyun's abilities. However, they did not expect Li Ke to be unable to block a casual strike from his opponent.
Li Lingfeng was dissatisfied, and the white-haired elder was even more dissatisfied. However, the one who was most dissatisfied was Li Ke. He had not even fought, so how did he lose? If it wasn't for the sword mark on his body, he wouldn't have believed that everything had happened.
Everyone was dissatisfied, including Chu Xingyun.
Just now, he had subconsciously dodged, subconsciously turned, subconsciously discovered his opponent's flaw, subconsciously swung his sword, and subconsciously defeated his opponent.
The Cloud Sword Style was the twelfth style of the Thirteen Swords of Gale. It was extremely difficult, and Chu Xingyun had not completely grasped it.
The reason why he had executed it so flawlessly was because of a coincidence.
It was because of a coincidence that he had executed it. If he had executed it intentionally, it would not have been as smooth.
However, it was because of this coincidence that Chu Xingyun discovered a whole new world …
Originally, Chu Xingyun had thought that he had already mastered the basic sword technique.
However, the strike just now made him understand that his mastery of the basic Thirteen Swords of Gale was still very low. If it wasn't because of a coincidence, the Cloud Sword Style would not have been so graceful.
Chu Xingyun couldn't help but blush with shame when he recalled his previous thoughts on the Sword Dao.
To cultivate three thousand Sword Daos in a thousand years was too exaggerated. If one learned too many things, they would definitely not be proficient.
A thousand years might seem long, but not to mention three thousand Sword Daos, he might not even be able to master the Thirteen Swords of Gale.
Just as the High Wind Sword Monarch had said, there was a limit to one's life, and there was no limit to one's knowledge.
Just the most basic Thirteen Swords of Gale was enough for him to train hard for a hundred years.
There was an old saying in the Qiankun World, "Ten years to practice the saber, a hundred years to practice the sword." It was not without reason.
Without painstakingly practicing for over a hundred years, it would be impossible to completely master even the simplest and most basic Thirteen Sword Techniques of Gale.
The more he studied, the more he pondered, and the more he cultivated, the more Chu Xingyun realized that there were more things he didn't understand.
Originally, Chu Xingyun had planned to start learning the unique skills of the Gale Sword Dao after coming out of seclusion. But now, it seemed that he hadn't even had a solid foundation. How could he learn any unique skills?
If a person wanted to learn how to run before he could even walk properly, he definitely wouldn't be able to run fast. If he didn't run well, he would fall if he wasn't careful.
Chu Xingyun was not a person who sought instant success. Before he had a solid foundation, he would definitely not rashly learn any consummate skills.
However, could the Thirteen Swords of Gale be used in actual combat?
Chu Xingyun gripped the hilt of his sword tightly and smiled.
He didn't know if the Thirteen Swords of Gale could be used in actual combat, but wasn't this the perfect opportunity?
Not relying on experience, not relying on wisdom, not relying on strength …
Completely and purely relying on the Thirteen Swords of Gale, Chu Xingyun wanted to try and see how far he could go.
Soon, the second challenger came on stage …
As for Chu Xingyun, his opponent obviously didn't pay too much attention to him. After all … other than Li Lingfeng, no one else could understand Chu Xingyun's sword move.
In the eyes of the majority of the crowd, that sword strike was something that Chu Xingyun had accidentally struck when he was dodging in a sorry state. It was simply impossible for it to have been done deliberately. The truth was indeed more or less as they had guessed.
That sword move was indeed a stroke of luck. It was a stroke of luck, a stroke of luck. It couldn't be replicated in a short period of time.
Swish …
Chu Xingyun gently pulled out the Sky Slashing Sword and focused. The next match was very important to him.
It had nothing to do with winning or losing. Chu Xingyun wanted to use actual combat to test the Thirteen Swords of Gale.
The challenger went on stage and cupped his fists towards Chu Xingyun, saying, "Gu Feng, Third Sky of Yin Yang, second level sword skill — — Gale Wave Breaker. Please advise!"
Second level sword skill?
Chu Xingyun couldn't help but frown when he heard the ranking. Could it be that this sword skill was divided into two stages?
Although he was full of doubts, it was obviously not the right time to ask. He would wait until after the Large Competition to find out more about it from Li Yier.
Chu Xingyun cupped his fists and said, "Chu Xingyun, First Sky of Yin Yang, first level sword skill — — Thirteen Swords of Gale. Please advise."
Uh …
Gu Feng was stunned. He clearly couldn't recover from his shock.
Although the Thirteen Swords of Gale consisted of thirteen sword moves, it was only a basic sword skill.
It wasn't that it couldn't be used in battle, but it couldn't be used like a sword skill that could increase energy, stack it, and explode it …
The Thirteen Swords of Gale was an unrated introductory sword skill. Above it, there were thirteen levels.
The Emperor level sword skill was a tenth level sword skill.
No one had ever reached the thirteenth level. The strongest sword skill recorded in history was the eleventh level.
As for the twelfth and thirteenth levels, they were completely deduced.
It was said that the Sword Venerable who created the eleventh level sword skill asserted that the eleventh level wasn't the limit of the Sword Dao. Instead, it was more like a brand new beginning …
Legend had it that the eleventh level sword skill could allow one to fly through the sky, travel through the earth, and kill people from a thousand miles away.
But until now, the so-called eleventh level sword skill had long been lost. There was no way to verify whether it really existed.
The sword was drawn, the spirit attached, and the competition began …
Under the white-haired elder's supervision, the second round of the Earth Ranking competition officially began.
Chu Xingyun didn't take the initiative to attack. Instead, he dealt with the changes by remaining unchanged.
However, Gu Feng was different. Before the white-haired elder finished speaking, he instantly leaped toward Chu Xingyun.
In just an instant, Gu Feng arrived in front of Chu Xingyun. He pulled back the sword in his hand, which was shining with silver light, and fiercely shot thousands of silver lights at Chu Xingyun.
Gale Wave Cleaving!
Looking at the incoming sword screen, Chu Xingyun quickly retreated, and the Air Slashing Sword in his hand struck out repeatedly.
Ding dang … Ding dang …
Amidst the crisp clashing sounds, the Air Slashing Sword in Chu Xingyun's hand also scattered thousands of silver stars.
He repeatedly struck out with the Air Slashing Sword in his hand. Every strike was a sword move, and every strike was accurately pointed at Gu Feng's throat.
A sword was like a person. A person had a throat, and so did a sword.
However, most people didn't truly understand and know where the throat of a sword was.
The throat of a sword was the throat of a sword. To be specific, it was actually just a point the size of a grain of rice.
The throat of a sword was the fulcrum. As long as one could find this fulcrum, under the effect of leverage, one would be able to move a thousand catties with little effort.
If the body of the opponent's sword was considered a lever, then the tip of Chu Xingyun's sword was actually the fulcrum.
After a dozen strikes, Chu Xingyun accurately struck his opponent's throat.
It was as if Gu Feng had exchanged a dozen blows with himself. His arm was extremely sore from the impact, and his hand was completely numb.
Seeing that Gu Feng's hand was beginning to tremble, Chu Xingyun's Air Slashing Sword shook violently. With a violent tremble of his wrist, he instantly executed the Collapsing Sword Style.
