The fight for the top eight had finally arrived. Considering the spectating nature of the competition, the Jin family decided to arrange the battles between the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect and the Cold Water Sword Sect to the end. The spectators were all in favor of this. After Li Xun and the others found out, they were also happy to observe the strength of the other sword sects.
Today, there was only one large arena in the center of the arena, and it was formed by the previous four arenas. In other words, the area was four times larger, and the participants had more space to dodge or evade. The tactics used were also much more varied, and it could be seen that the Jin Family had a lot of experience in organizing this kind of martial arts competition.
With the sound of a gong, the battle between the Meng Black Sword Sect and the Great Yu Mountain Sword Sect began. As the two established sword sects in the south, both sides knew each other well.
"Elder Gu, I think you must be very familiar with these two sword sects. Which one do you think has a higher chance of advancing?"
This Meng Black Sword Sect and the Da Yu Sword Sect can be said to be old enemies. It could be said that this is the fourth consecutive time they've met in the group competition. Before this, the Meng Black Sword Sect maintained a complete victory.
Li Xun felt that there was a hidden meaning behind these words. Logically speaking, the Da Yu Sword Sect was weak. Wouldn't it be better for him if they advanced?
"Elder Gu, you still have something to say, right?"
"Haha, not bad. This Great Yu Mountain is located in the southeast region of the Great Yu Mountain. It has been established for more than eight hundred years. More than two hundred years ago, one of their Sect Leaders, who fought with our Sect Leader over a treasure, suffered a serious injury in a public duel and when he returned, he was depressed and died not long after. Even though this matter has been going on for more than two hundred years, it has never been resolved. In the future, if any of you were to go out and meet people from the Da Yu Sword Sect, you must be careful. "
While Li Xun and Elder Gu were chatting, the first round of the competition had already ended. The Black Sword Sect had won miserably, but that disciple was obviously unable to cope with the following matches.
"Looks like the grudge between the Meng Black Sword Sect and the Great Yu Mountain Sword Sect is not small." Li Xun sighed. Before this, it was very rare for both sides to suffer losses in the arena battle.
"Heh heh, what would you do if you were to be defeated by the same opponent with similar strength in three consecutive congresses?"
"Of course, we're going to fight him to the death." After Li Xun said this, Elder Gu looked at each other and smiled. The others also understood what the two were laughing about. The fiercer the fight between the Meng Black Sword Sect and the Great Yu Mountain Sword Sect, the more advantageous it would be for the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect.
The battle between the two sides could really be described as tragic. The fight went all the way to the sixth person, and still, the Black Sword Sect and the Great Yu Mountain Sect had the final laugh. However, after this battle, three of the disciples of the Black Sword Sect were severely injured. It seemed that it would be difficult to completely recover tomorrow.
Following that, the competition for the Mountain Sword Sect and the Mountain Sword Sect started extremely quickly. Soon, both of them were defeated. The Coiling Dragon Sword sent out a fourth person, whereas the Rushing Thunder Sword Sect only sent out three.
Alright, it's our turn now, but you don't have to do anything today." After he finished speaking, Li Xun was about to step onto the stage, but a pair of tender and fair hands grabbed him. Li Xun looked at Qin Qing's love-filled eyes and felt overwhelmed. He patted Qin Qing's hands and kissed her forehead before quickly leaving. Only Qin Qing was left in a daze with a blush on her face. It was a good thing that Qin Qing was currently covering her face. Otherwise, her current appearance would have captivated a large number of men.
"Alright, Sister Qing. Senior Brother is already on stage, why are you still in a daze?" I really can't stand the two of you. It's so cold to be made so numb every time. " Tian Fen teased Qin Qing again.
At this moment, Qin Qing had also recovered. "Little girl, you're getting more and more outrageous. I need to find someone to discipline you as soon as possible. I think Zhou Jie is not bad."
"He, you're asking him, does he dare to stop me?" Tian Fen smirked at Zhou Jie.
"Uh, Sister Qing, you can look for someone else. I'm really not up to the task."
Everyone laughed heartily. From this, it could be seen how confident Li Xun was. Qin Qing was just a fan of the situation. She loved Li Xun too much.
When Li Xun arrived at the stage, the face of the Coldwater Sword Sect Elder, who was below the stage, immediately changed.
"Elder Fei Ming, what's wrong?" One of the disciples asked.
Originally, I thought that with your two senior brothers, I could barely fight against the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect. It looks like we have also underestimated the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect, it's a good thing that we didn't agree to that person surnamed Dou yesterday. Otherwise, it really would have been a huge loss. Qing Feng, Qing Shui, what do you think of the strength of the people on stage? "
"Elder, I can't see through you. This Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect is truly full of talented people."
"I can't see it either. Eldest senior brother, should we use a secret technique to meet up with him?"
"Nonsense, don't you want to die just for this lousy competition?" Fei Ming smacked Qing Shui's head.
"Aiyo, elder, you didn't say that. If we can't even get first place with this kind of strength, then we won't have the face to go back."
"Bullshit, when did I say that? Tell me, who would have heard me say that?"
"Elder Fei Ming, this is a naked threat, I protest." Qing Shui felt wronged.
"I'm going against you. It's useless to protest. I'm punishing you with no food to eat tonight."
"Uh, Elder, I was wrong."
"Alright, you guys listen up. You guys are not on the same level as each other. Just go on stage and learn as much as you can. You are not allowed to use any secret techniques." From the looks of his extraordinary bearing, I believe that he will not make things difficult for you.
"Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect, Li Xun." Li Xun revealed his 2.5 meter long sword.
"Coldwater Sword Sect, Clearstone." Why don't you use your spirit sword and look down on me? " Qing Shi revealed his Five Treasures Azure level sword. Other than the Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect, this was the first Five Treasures, the Cyan Rank Sword.
The crowd outside the arena was also in an uproar when they saw this.
"I think you're mistaken. This sword of mine is definitely not inferior to your Soul Sword." Li Xun said with a gloomy expression. Although he was laughing and laughing before going up on stage, he had changed into another person after coming up on stage. This was the battle training that the old man had nurtured. Li Xun, who received training from the Old Man in this area, also thought of a sentence, "strategic contempt for the enemy, tactical respect for the enemy."
"Then let me see how powerful your sword is. "Ah …" Qing Shi attacked ferociously as soon as he started. It had to be said that Qing Shi had reached the peak of the sixth step at the age of twenty-two. He was also a genius with the Five Treasures Azure Level Sword. But today, he encountered Li Xun, and it had to be said that his luck was bad.
Qing Shi attacked five times in one go, but all of them were easily blocked by Li Xun. Not only that, Li Xun even stood on the spot without moving.
Below the stage, Qin Qing and the five others couldn't help but think of the tempting challenge of the Heavenly Academy. To them, that was truly an impossible mission.
He knew that he had met a real opponent, and he also knew that Li Xun had not lied to him. That longsword was indeed not of ordinary quality, because even the top grade Five Treasures Green Rank longsword on the market would not be damaged by his five strikes. Only the top grade swords that were made of rare materials would have such an effect.
Qing Shi saw that Li Xun had no intention to attack and couldn't help but be annoyed. This fellow really looked down on people. Qing Shi activated his sword art gem and started to gather his strength. He thought to himself: "Hmph, you better pretend. Let's see if you have the guts to receive this attack from me."
Li Xun could also tell that Qing Shi was going to use a powerful sword skill. Judging from Qing Shi's energy accumulation, this move should be borrowing the energy from the sword skill gem to use the Golden Sword skill, but it would not be able to reach the true power of a gold-level sword skill. Therefore, Li Xun did not intend to interfere with Qing Shi's attack.
"Weakwater Sword."
He saw seven short swords, roughly thirty centimeters long and made of water particles, gradually taking shape. Although Qing Shi could not release the Golden Sword Qi this time, he had created seven water swords. It could be said that he had taken another route. "Let's go."
The Weak Water Sword looked gorgeous, but it was still not powerful enough. Although it could rival a peak Silver Sword skill, the sword Qis emitted by an elementary Golden Sword move were still much stronger than it was. The result was self-evident. Li Xun easily blocked it.
Qing Shi had already accumulated all his energy before releasing the Faint Water Sword. He was also somewhat exhausted. His face was pale. It was obvious that this move consumed a lot of energy.
"You've lost. If you can turn the water sword into a gas sword in the future, the power of this move will definitely be great. I'm really looking forward to seeing a real water sword."
"I'll definitely let you see it." After throwing down those words, Qing Shi staggered out of the arena.
