Face Slapping
"Boom!"
Lin Zong's fury had reached its peak. A terrifying aura burst out from his body like a tidal wave, surging violently!
"Since you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish!"
Clang!
Lin Zong pulled out a flexible sword from his waist. With a shake of the sword, it was already perfectly straight. A sharp sword aura surged out from the flexible sword, unparalleled in sharpness.
The current Lin Zong did not conceal his killing intent in the slightest. For someone as arrogant as him to be looked down upon by Gu Xuan, his killing intent had already been aroused!
This time, he had already decided that although he couldn't kill Gu Xuan, he must cut off one of Gu Xuan's arms.
"This Gu Xuan still has his arrogant personality." Ye Cang sneered. Back then, when Gu Xuan dared to cause trouble for him, he was only unwilling to deal with Gu Xuan because of his status. He also had no way to deal with Gu Xuan.
However, this time, Gu Xuan actually dared to provoke Lin Zong. This ruthless character might not necessarily be afraid of the school's rules. It was very likely that he would directly deal a heavy blow in his anger. This wouldn't be as simple as a defeat.
The sharp sword aura wantonly surged. Even the bluestone on the ground was cut open by this sword aura.
A sure-kill sword!
Gu Xuan also faintly raised his eyebrows. He clenched his fist and a wild force surged out.
Human rank 2 martial art, World Shaking Emperor's Fist!
"Human rank 2 martial art?"
The World Shaking Emperor's Fist's might was wild and overbearing, unlike the Roaring Flame Blade which was reserved. Almost as soon as it was used, it revealed its martial art level.
"What a madman!"
Ye Cang coldly snorted. Lin Zong's strength was obvious to all. Not only was he tyrannical, he was even more refined than before. If Gu Xuan went all out and used a Human rank 1 martial art, then he might have a chance of winning. However, Gu Xuan actually dared to use a Human rank 2 martial art to deal with Lin Zong.
Then he would definitely pay a heavy price for underestimating his opponent.
"Perhaps this Gu Xuan really has the strength." Qin Feng smiled from the side. With his keen perception, he always felt that Gu Xuan wasn't so simple.
In an instant, the two of them attacked at the same time. A violent sword aura, rampaging like a galloping horse!
Gu Xuan's fist was vast and unparalleled, crushing everything!
Boom!
The sword aura and the fist force collided and immediately exploded. Finally, they disappeared into nothingness. An incomparable force spread in all directions and shook Gu Xuan and Lin Zong until they retreated a couple of steps.
"Come again, I will definitely kill you with this sword!"
Lin Zong roared angrily as he waved his sword wildly!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The fist energy and the sword energy continued to collide in the air. Explosions occurred again and again, causing the ground to shake.
"Pu!"
After dozens of sword strikes, Lin Zong finally could not hold on any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Only a physique as strong as Gu Xuan's could withstand the terrifying bombardments time and time again. But Lin Zong clearly did not have this kind of ability. There was only the path of failure!
"You lost!"
Gu Xuan looked at Lin Zong and said indifferently.
Lin Zong roared. He wanted to forcefully gather the power of fire again, but he was unable to absorb any of it. He spat out another mouthful of blood.
This unexpected result made many people look at each other in dismay. The dignified Lin Zong, whose strength could be ranked in the top 70 of the Heavenly Court, was actually defeated at the hands of Gu Xuan.
What was even more terrifying was that Gu Xuan had only used a human rank 2 martial art. Just like that, he had defeated Lin Zong. Who could say that Gu Xuan's strength was not worthy of the 53rd pavilion?
As for whether or not Gu Xuan knew a human rank 1 martial art, no one doubted this at all. If a heaven-defying martial artist like Gu Xuan's flame source couldn't reach human rank 2, then it would be a joke.
Ye Cang stood at the side, his face gloomy and frightening. Gu Xuan had won and was qualified to be in the 53rd pavilion. This meant that he had gone to find trouble with Gu Xuan before, which was undoubtedly playing to the gallery. And Gu Xuan's ridicule was not empty talk, it was the truth.
"Humph, let's let this Gu Xuan be proud for a while." Ye Cang coldly snorted, "I really underestimated him, but that's all. The higher the ability to challenge those of a higher rank, the harder it is to break through realms. The reason Zhou Juechu was so tyrannical back then was because not only was his ability to challenge those of a higher rank, but his cultivation speed was also much faster than ordinary people. This Gu Xuan wants to compare to Zhou Juechu, he's still far from it!"
Qin Feng also nodded. Ye Cang's words were not false. Generally speaking, the difficulty of cultivation was directly proportional to one's strength. The stronger one was, the more heaven-defying it was, and the harder it was to break through. Gu Xuan's flame source was ten times stronger than other martial artists of the same rank, so if he wanted to break through, he would need to accumulate ten times more than others.
No matter how good one's talent was, ten times the accumulation was enough to make one's realm rise like a turtle crawling.
Back then, Zhou Juechu had only jumped three ranks, but Gu Xuan had directly jumped four ranks. If one did not have heaven-defying talent, then it would be very difficult to make even an inch of progress.
"Although Gu Xuan's strength is not bad, whether or not he can surpass you and me depends on his future cultivation speed." Qin Feng also smiled and said, "If he can break through as fast as Zhou Juechu, then he's also a genius. If he's only a little stronger, then there's nothing to worry about. After all, the Black Rank is just a small rank. Once he reaches the Supreme Rank, his strength will increase by leaps and bounds."
"Mm." Only then did Ye Cang's expression soften a little. No matter how tyrannical the ability to challenge those of a higher rank is, without the support of strength, it's useless.
In the Black Rank, Gu Xuan might be able to jump four ranks, but once he reaches the Supreme Rank, the gap between every rank would be huge. Even the most heaven-defying person could only jump two ranks.
However, cultivation was different. Once a genius reached the Supreme Rank, it was very likely that he would quickly advance to the late stage of the Supreme Rank. The difference in talent was only one or two stars. That was the real gap!
As for whether Gu Xuan could be as heaven-defying as Zhou Juechu, the possibility was not high. Someone like Zhou Juechu already defied common sense. It was already heaven-defying to have one. Another one, and from the same place? How could there be such a coincidence in the world!
Gu Xuan had also heard the conversation between the two. However, he only smiled. Slow cultivation speed?
If ordinary people had the ability to challenge those of a higher rank like him, their cultivation speed would be extremely slow. However, he was at the peak of the Emperor Rank in his previous life. Even though he needed a huge amount of resources to break through, in reality, there would not be any bottlenecks. He could advance all the way like a hot knife through butter. His cultivation speed was many times faster than those so-called cultivation geniuses.
In fact, since Gu Xuan was reborn until now, he had only cultivated for a little more than half a year. In such a short period of time, he had never awakened the Human Flame and was now at the Black Rank 5 star. His cultivation speed was already unimaginably fast.
