I Admit Defeat
The moonlight fell on Baili Kuangsheng's body, giving him an otherworldly aura. His black hair was like a waterfall and his white robes were like snow. The sword at his waist let out a faint sword hum. He didn't move, but he stunned countless people.
He stared at the right side of the stage. Seeing that Chu Xingyun hadn't arrived yet, he didn't say anything. He retracted his gaze and quietly waited.
The stage was still quiet, but below the stage, there was a lot of discussion.
The crowd had been waiting for a long time for this battle. At this moment, Baili Kuangsheng had arrived, but Chu Xingyun, one of the main characters, was still nowhere to be seen.
This made people's imaginations run wild.
"It's getting late. If the Luo Yun Sword Lord still hasn't appeared, then he'll lose this battle."
"The Manic Sword Lord's cultivation is far higher than the Luo Yun Sword Lord's. Could it be that the Luo Yun Sword Lord went into seclusion to break through his cultivation and close the gap between them?"
"The Luo Yun Sword Lord just reached the Heavenly Spirit Realm not long ago. It'll be difficult for him to continue breaking through. If he's careless, he'll suffer from Qi Deviation and damage his foundation. He shouldn't do something so risky."
"Then what's the point of him not appearing?"
The crowd's discussion became louder and louder. Some Elders and Deacons also joined in the discussion and expressed their opinions. The scene was very lively.
These people didn't have a good opinion of Chu Xingyun.
They didn't doubt Chu Xingyun's talent, nor did they deny Chu Xingyun's strength. It was just that Baili Kuangsheng was too strong. He could even take three moves from a Yin-Yang Realm expert.
Chu Xingyun's cultivation was far behind. Although he was strong, he lost because of his shallow foundation.
If the two of them were both in the fifth level of the Heavenly Spirit Realm, then the public opinion wouldn't be so one-sided in today's battle.
"Could it be that Luo Yun is really avoiding the battle?" Qin Qiumo was also scanning the surroundings. His eyes narrowed slightly as he asked Chang Chixiao in astonishment.
Chang Chixiao sneered, "Avoiding the battle can make Luo Yun's loss less ugly, but the final result is still a loss. As long as we secretly add fuel to the fire, in less than three days, Luo Yun's title as a genius will disappear!"
"Not only that, the reputation that he has painstakingly built up will also be destroyed. At that time, the seventy thousand outer disciples will not be convinced by him, and even the Pavilion Master will be disappointed in him."
"From the looks of it, Luo Yun's avoidance of the battle has benefited us instead?" Qin Qiumo was pleasantly surprised. The more miserable Chu Xingyun's fate was, the more excited he felt. His mentality had gradually become twisted.
"Whether Luo Yun comes or not, he won't have a good ending. Tonight, the peak of the Myriad Swords Mountain will be the place where his reputation will be destroyed!" Chang Chixiao's eyes shone with a sharp light. His heart was filled with confidence.
If Chu Xingyun wasn't there, he would lose without a fight.
If Chu Xingyun came in time, he would lose to Baili Kuangsheng.
Whether he came or not, he would still be defeated. It was just that the process was different.
As for the other results, Chang Chixiao didn't even think about it. He understood Baili Kuangsheng's strength very well. If he went all out, no one in the same realm as him could beat Baili Kuangsheng.
This was why Chang Chixiao was so confident that he had arranged everything beforehand.
Unlike Chang Chixiao's calmness, at this moment, even Yun Changqing, who was usually calm and composed, had a trace of anxiety on his face. He occasionally raised his head to look ahead, searching for traces of Chu Xingyun.
Ning Lefan, Lu Ling, and the others were even more anxious.
If not for Chu Xingyun's order that no one was to disturb his seclusion, they would have already rushed back to the Sword Master Peak.
Waiting.
Waiting as always.
At this moment, the night was already dark.
The bright moon hung in the sky. The bright moonlight was like flowing water, sprinkling on the high platform like a layer of frost. Baili Kuangsheng, who was standing on the left side of the high platform, still had his eyes closed. He didn't move at all.
One person, one moon. It was like a picture scroll.
"He's here!" At this moment, two words came out of Baili Kuangsheng's mouth. He opened his eyes, a trace of light blossoming from them as he looked deeply into the direction of the night wind.
Whoosh!
The sharp sword radiance exploded, and a resounding sword hum resounded in the night sky.
Under everyone's gaze, Chu Xingyun arrived.
He was dressed in black, like a phantom shuttling through the night sky. He swept across the sky and landed on the high platform in an instant. His pitch-black hair fluttered in the night wind, revealing an awe-inspiring aura.
"Sorry to have kept you waiting!" Chu Xingyun said. He glanced around, but he was not afraid of the surprised gazes of the crowd. His back was straight like a sword, and his aura was firm. He was like a sword that could pierce through the heavens and was indestructible.
Seeing Chu Xingyun's appearance, a trace of disappointment appeared on Qin Qiumo's old face. But soon, this trace of unusualness disappeared, and it was replaced by a sneer as he looked coldly at Chu Xingyun.
Yun Changqing, Ning Lefan, and the others breathed a long sigh of relief. They looked at Chu Xingyun with a trace of anticipation, hoping that Chu Xingyun could create another miracle.
Fan Wujie also stared at Chu Xingyun. He felt a strong sense of determination from Chu Xingyun, and it was this determination that made him reveal a look of admiration. He said indifferently, "To be able to face a strong opponent without the slightest fear, this battle will definitely be exciting."
Hearing those words, the bystanders burst forth with excitement.
At this point, Chu Xingyun and Baili Kuangsheng had both arrived.
The battle of the pinnacle was about to begin!
Standing on the high platform, Chu Xingyun did not restrain his aura, allowing the sharp Sword Qi to wreak havoc. His eyes fell on Baili Kuangsheng, and in an instant, he released a high battle intent.
This battle intent was like the sea, like a mountain, both vast and thick, as if it wanted to roll up the entire moonlight and twist it into nothingness.
"Your cultivation is still at the second layer of the Heavenly Spirit Realm, but the sword aura that pervades your body has changed. It has become even sharper and more astonishing. It seems that you have never given up in the past few days." Baili Kuangsheng suddenly spoke. The vast battle intent descended on his body, but it was torn to pieces, unable to affect him at all.
"Since I agreed to the battle, I have never thought of giving up. I must win this battle!" Chu Xingyun calmly replied. From his palm, a black light rose up into the night sky like an abyss.
When the black light dissipated, the Black Hole Epee that weighed twenty thousand pounds had already fallen into Chu Xingyun's hand.
The moonlight sprinkled down and shone on the Black Hole Epee, but it could not reflect the light. Instead, it was swallowed by the Black Hole Epee, causing the pitch black sword to become even more profound. The inscriptions on the sword were cryptic, revealing an ancient aura.
Chu Xingyun tightened his grip on the Black Hole Epee. As the sword swept across, the entire atmosphere changed, making everyone feel suffocated. They subconsciously held their breaths and resentfully looked forward.
"Make your move." Chu Xingyun spoke. His gaze focused on one point. The Green Lotus Spiritual Ocean inside his body spun crazily, releasing an incomparably pure sword shaped spiritual energy.
Just as he had said earlier, he was determined to win this battle.
Therefore, he would not underestimate his opponent.
At this moment, everyone's gaze fell onto Baili Kuangsheng.
They were all very curious as to how Baili Kuangsheng would respond to Chu Xingyun's tyrannical aura. If he also made his move, the sound of the sword clashing would be enough to tear apart the night sky.
Feeling everyone's expectant gaze, Baili Kuangsheng's body remained motionless. He did not make any move to make his move.
At this moment, he once again looked at Chu Xingyun. His pitch-black eyes actually became gentle. The corner of his mouth lifted into a smile. It was as if the battle intent on his body had turned into a spring breeze.
