Clang, clang, clang!
Ling Tian continued to raise his sword to meet her attacks, only to discover that the strength of her attacks seemed to have increased by quite a bit. He was knocked down the entire way, and Ling Tian's One Sword saw this and retaliated with his own sword technique.
Clang, clang, clang!
This time, the two of them were locked in a stalemate. They kept flying around in the arena, shocking the people below.
Clang!
After another clash, the two of them separated. Ling Tian frowned as he looked at the sword in his hand, only to see a layer of white ice forming on the metallic blade of the sword. His clothes were also beginning to turn into ice crystals.
Ignoring Li Qian 'er and Feng Ling' er's cheers, he watched as the ice on Ling Tian's sword began to melt. His battle qi instantly became fire attributed.
Before Leng Yan could even get close to him, Ling Tian had already sent out a fiery red sword Qi to meet her. Leng Yan was forced back a few steps by the sword qi and looked at Ling Tian,""You still have mercy?"
Hearing this, Ling Tian merely smiled and raised his sword towards Leng Yan.
Clang, clang, clang!
This time, Ling Tian's sword was no longer frozen, but melted by ice and fire. However, the power of the sword continued to push Leng Yan backwards.‘Raging Flames Slash! Ling Tian once again sent a sword attack towards Leng Yan. This sword attack seemed to be different from the previous ones. The temperature of the sword was even higher, melting the cold light on Leng Yan's sword in an instant. Furthermore, the strength of the sword was also much greater, causing her to be sent flying towards the protective barrier at the edge of the stage.
Just as she was about to attack Ling Tian again, she realized that Ling Tian's sword was already placed on her neck. While she was amazed by Ling Tian's speed, she put down her sword and cupped her hands,""I lost." Her voice was still as cold as ever, as if she was not the one who had lost.
"Ling Tian wins." Hearing this, an outer court elder who was the judge outside the arena said. Meanwhile, the inner sect elders at the leader's side were whispering to each other. An old man beside the North Wind Sect's sect master said to the sect master in the middle,""This batch of disciples is not bad."
" Mm." The sect master of the Northern Wind Sect nodded to express his affirmation and said,""The two of them are not bad, but that brat who is only at the peak of the Paragon Rank seems to be holding back.”"Still holding back?" Hearing this, the old man repeated it in surprise, as if he did not believe it.
The old man surnamed Mu, who was also the Vice Peak Master of the Blue Cloud Peak and now the Peak Master of the Blue Cloud Peak, stroked his beard and nodded in satisfaction. However, Elder Li, who was at the other side, frowned. His expression was not very good.
"Thank you." Ling Tian looked at Leng Yan and said a few polite words before keeping his sword. After that, he cupped his hands towards her and left the stage. As for Leng Yan, she also saw Ling Tian leaving the arena.
. On the second day, Ling Tian met his next opponent. It was a youth dressed in grey and was rather tall. He wielded a long weapon, a halberd. His cultivation was only at the Half-Saint realm, but Ling Tian did not underestimate him. "Although I'm not your match, I won't give up.”The grey-robed young man cupped his hands at Ling Tian.
. Hearing this, Ling Tian smiled," Since we haven't fought before, there's no need to talk about victory or defeat. Please."”After saying that, he raised his sword and pointed it at the gray-robed youth.
. "Alright then, take this move of mine, Mountain Cleaving Slash.”As the grey clothed youth spoke, he raised his halberd high above his head and slashed towards Ling Tian. Seeing this, Ling Tian's sword immediately went up to meet it. Clang!
The long sword and halberd split apart at the same time, and Ling Tian looked at the trembling long sword as he muttered to himself,"? As expected of a long-range weapon. What great strength.
"Severing Slash!"
At this moment, the grey-robed youth swung his halberd towards Ling Tian.? Ling Tian's sword? Ling Tian saw the white glow from the sword and went up to meet it.
Clang!
The clash between the halberd and the sword produced a metallic clang. This time, Ling Tian's sword was shattered and he was forced back a few steps. However, after he stopped, he did not care about his numb arm. He smiled and said,"Interesting, but that's all.”
As he spoke, the pale white sword light on his longsword instantly turned dark gold. Sharp Metal Slash? Ling Tian slashed out a dark golden sword qi towards the grey clothed youth.
Clang!
The grey-robed young man held the halberd horizontally in front of his chest. He held the halberd with both hands to block the sword qi, but he was forced back a few steps by the sword qi. The halberd in his hand also trembled continuously.‘Ling Tian would not give his opponent the chance to react and sent another dark gold sword qi towards the grey clothed youth.
Clang, clang, clang! Ling Tian continued to send out several sword qi towards the grey clothed youth. The grey-robed young man could only keep using his halberd to block. When the sword qi passed, the grey-robed young man was forced back dozens of meters. A few sword marks appeared in the middle of the halberd in his hand, and the purlicue between his hands was also broken.
At this moment, Ling Tian raised his sword and shouted,""Take my strongest attack, Sharp Metal Chop.”As he spoke, he swung his sword down and released a sword qi that was several times larger than before. The grey-robed young man felt extremely bitter. He was originally the kind of person who had powerful and sharp attacks. This time, he encountered someone who used a sword but was even more powerful and sharp than his halberd.
However, he still raised his halberd high and tried to use his strongest attack, Earth Splitting Strike, to slash at the sword qi.
Clang! Puff!
The sword Qi collided with the halberd, sending the grey-robed youth and his halberd flying into the arena's barrier. When the grey-robed young man fell to the ground, he was already on the verge of fainting. There was a wound on his chest caused by the sword qi, and it was so deep that the bone could be seen. What collided with the sword mark was a pole mark, his halberd being sent flying by Ling Tian's sword qi and crashing into his chest. A sword mark had also appeared on the halberd beside him, and it was almost about to cut the halberd in half.
Seeing this, Ling Tian shook his head. Was it because he suddenly had a bit of comprehension towards the 'Sharp Metal Chop' that he didn't hold back and unleashed his strongest attack? Sharp Metal Slash? He had almost caused the grey-robed youth to lose his life. He could only apologize in his heart and watch as the others carried him off the stage to treat his injuries. At this moment, the referee said,"Ling Tian wins."”
Ling Tian shook his head and walked towards Li Qian 'er and the rest. On the platform, the sect master of the Northern Wind Sect said with a 'I say so' expression,""What a sharp sword style!" Towards this, Peak Master Mu, who was also the old man surnamed Mu, was a little disappointed. He knew that Ling Tian had an even more powerful move, the Flaming Whirlwind Slash. Elder Li's mood was even worse, especially when he saw Han Xue being defeated by an opponent who was also at the early stage of the Saint realm.
Just like that, Ling Tian entered the top 15 while Han Xue had to fight with the others for the last five spots. It seemed that Han Xue's luck wasn't too good and she had met Leng Yan, losing to her after 100 moves and losing the right to enter the top 20.
Below was the ranking. First, there would be two rounds of comparison to determine the top ten and top five. Then, the last ten would be compared to determine the top fifteen and the last five. Then, it was the five-person competition for points. One of them would compete with the other four. If they won, they would accumulate one point. If they lost, they would not get any points. The person with the highest points in the first five places would be the first place, and so on. The person with the highest points in the sixth to tenth places would be the sixth place. Finally, there was the challenge competition. Apart from the first group, which was the first to fifth place, the other three groups with the highest points could challenge the people from the previous group. If they won, they would replace the ranking of the challenged. The person with the second highest points in that group would continue to have the right to challenge, and the person in that group would lose the right to challenge.
. Before the competition, the participants had to rest for two days. However, these two days passed very quickly, and it was Ling Tian's turn again. This time, his opponent was a blue-robed blade artist who was at the early stage of the Saint realm. The moment Ling Tian stepped onto the stage, he heard him say,""I've watched your matches. You're a good swordsman. Now, let's see which one is stronger.”
Hearing this, Ling Tian nodded his head and said,""Alright." The blue-robed blade artist smiled as he raised his blade and slashed towards Ling Tian. Ling Tian also used his Sharp Metal Chop to meet the incoming attack.
Clang, clang, clang!
Saber Qi and sword Qi continued to sweep across the arena. The originally special and sturdy arena was covered in scars from the saber Qi and sword Qi. The two of them first used saber qi and sword qi to slash at each other, then used the actual saber and sword to slash at each other. Clang, clang! The sounds of clang rang out endlessly, and then they used saber qi and sword qi to slash at each other.
The two of them exchanged a few blows, and the blue-robed young man was defeated by Ling Tian's most powerful metal chop. This time, the metal chop was even stronger than the previous time when he injured the grey-robed young man. Because the blue-robed young man had constantly changed his blade style while Ling Tian had only used the Sharp Metal Hack, Ling Tian's understanding of the Sharp Metal Hack had increased by a notch. As expected, actual combat was one of the best ways to increase one's strength.
. The young swordsman in blue was not disheartened after losing the match. Instead, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said,"You are one of the most outstanding young swordsmen I have ever seen. My name is Yang Feng.”Hearing this, Ling Tian smiled and said," Ling Tian, you are actually not bad either. It's just that you know too many sword skills and don't have a deep understanding of them. I advise you to learn less and choose some sword skills that are not necessarily powerful but suitable for you. What suited him was the best. This was the simplest principle.”
"Thank you for your advice. I, Yang Feng, will remember this favor.”Yang Feng smiled faintly and respectfully cupped his hands towards Ling Tian before walking off the stage. The referee then announced Ling Tian's victory and placed him in the top ten.
On the second day, Lingtian's match came again. This time, his opponent was a young man in yellow. He held a magnificent and noble magic staff in his hand. He was a rare Magician, and his relatively thin body suited his identity. However, he didn't seem to be a talkative person. After he went up on stage, he only said," Please advise me " before activating an earth magic barrier. He then began to chant an incantation, and his magic staff began to emit a yellow light.‘Earth Spear. After he said these two words, his magic staff emitted a yellow light and shot out earth spears one after another towards Ling Tian.
However, his soil seemed to be different from ordinary soil. Each of them was only three meters long, but they were relatively thick. Moreover, they were not yellow in color, but had a platinum color.
Seeing this, Ling Tian didn't take it head on, instead dodging at a high speed and sprinting towards the yellow clothed youth. Only when he could not dodge in time would he use his sword to slash at the earth spear. At this moment, Ling Tian also discovered how powerful the earth spear was. His Sharp Metal Chop was unable to cut through the earth spear and only managed to leave a deep mark on it. Furthermore, the strength of the earth spear was so great that his hand that was holding the sword was slightly numb.
When Ling Tian closed the distance between the two of them by half, the yellow clothed youth used his next move, Heavenly Fire Meteor. A yellow light and a red light suddenly appeared in the sky before fusing together. In the end, meteors with a diameter of one meter fell from the sky.‘Mountain Embracing Sword. Seeing this, Ling Tian used the new sword technique he had been researching for the past seven years, a defensive sword technique. This sword style was an earth element sword style. It changed the way of using the blade and the tip of the sword to block and block horizontally.
As the sword would release a large yellow sword qi when it was used to block, it was like a small mountain in his hand. Therefore, Ling Tian named this sword style. Mountain Embracing Sword? The reason why he didn't continue to use Sharp Metal Hack was because even if he split the meteorite in half, its power would still be there, and it would still smash towards him. As such, he used the Mountain Embracing Sword to block the meteorite. However, because the meteorite was too powerful, Ling Tian's pace slowed down. When Ling Tian was about to attack the yellow clothed youth, the youth had already finished reciting his incantation and shouted,""Raging Fire Golden Dragon, come out." Then, the ground in front of him suddenly glowed with red, yellow, and gold light. A dragon head made of yellow soil with a metallic feel to it emerged from the ground and charged towards Ling Tian, its body becoming more and more complete.
Just as Ling Tian was wondering why there was no fire, the dragon opened its mouth and shot out a pillar of fire. Luckily, Ling Tian had already sensed that something was wrong after the yellow clothed youth finished chanting the incantation. Thus, he began to accumulate his strength and slashed out with his sword, the Flaming Tornado Slash.
A flaming tornado instantly formed, and a flaming longsword flew out from the tornado to meet the flaming pillar of light.
When the flaming longsword slashed into the flaming pillar of light, it was dimmed by the power of the pillar of light, but it absorbed the flames in the pillar of light to recover. In the end, the slightly dimmed flaming longsword slashed onto the Earth Dragon's head.
Boom!
The upper body of the Earth Dragon was cut into pieces.
Sharp Metal Chop!
However, Ling Tian had unknowingly closed in on him and slashed at his protective barrier, causing it to crack open. Before he could recover, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his shoulder, causing him to stop chanting.
. At this moment, he heard Ling Tian's voice,""Stop." Then, he saw that Ling Tian's sword was stabbing into his shoulder, but it was not too deep. He naturally did not believe that Ling Tian could not pierce deeper, and he knew that Ling Tian did not want to hurt him. Thus, he dispersed the remaining half of the Earth Dragon and cupped his hands towards Ling Tian,""I admit defeat."
