Chapter 109: Duel with Ghost Sword Li Kuang (Third Update)
The second round was a bit speechless. Out of 15 games, 11 ended quickly, almost all of which were strong teams crushing weaker ones.
Ye Chen's match was not among the eleven, but it was almost the same. His opponent was Double Gun Dong Haohua, whose strength was not weak at all. Unfortunately, he encountered Ye Chen and was defeated in three or four moves without showing his true strength.
The third round had two thrilling matches.
One of them was a duel between the only two female disciples among the top ten inner door disciples of the previous generation.
One was Xiao Ye vs Li Yun.
Two female disciples are 'Peach Blossom Hand' Zhou Ruo and 'Colorful Sword' Qiu Ruotong.
Zhou Ruo ranked fourth, with exceptionally strong strength. Her slender hands seemed soft and boneless, but when she touched her opponent, the eighth-ranked Qi Ruotong immediately spat out blood and retreated, losing the match.
Xiao Ye and Li Yun's battle was too intense, one of them was the third-ranked disciple of the previous inner door top ten, and the other was a suddenly rising new star, neither side gave in, fighting fiercely, even the platform was almost destroyed by them.
Xiao Ye's defense and offense were extremely formidable, ordinary sword lights couldn't break through his protective true energy, one punch could blast the air in front of him, making it impossible for Li Yun to get close.
As for Li Yun, although he is a newcomer, his strength is not inferior in the slightest. He and Xiao Ye, who ranked third, had a difficult time deciding the winner. His sword technique, which split into multiple lights, was so divine that it seemed to enter the realm of the gods. The hidden sword light also made Xiao Ye fearful.
Finally, the elder thought it had gone on for too long and declared a draw.
The fourth and fifth rounds also had wonderful battles, and the outer disciples in the audience seats cheered with excitement, their blood boiling.
Round 6, Match 3.
Xueyingdao Meng Chong vs Tie Fanshen Yi Qing.
"The previous number one and two finally met, I don't know who has the upper hand."
"You must be out of your mind! It's definitely because of Master Hong Chong's strength."
"The match hasn't even started yet, how did you know that Yi Qing's fan technique is so dreamy, how could he possibly lose." The one who spoke up for Yi Qing was a female disciple from the inner sect.
Several people beside him rolled their eyes and thought: Another lovesick fool!
On stage.
Yi Qing opened his iron fan and smiled at Meng Chong: "Last year when we fought, I could still exchange dozens of moves with you. This year, I'm afraid it won't be possible."
Meng Chong said: "Why must you belittle yourself? Do you think I will relax my vigilance against you?"
"Hehe!" Yi Qing smiled.
"Come on, I know you must have a killer move, probably to deal with me." Meng Chong still had some appreciation for Yi Qing, whose technique and actual combat skills were already quite perfectly merged, looking both beautiful and not flashy. It was really impossible to defeat the opponent with just one knife.
Step by step, he walked towards Yi Qing, his gaze becoming more and more intense.
As the tenth step was about to be taken, Yi Qing moved. In fact, he had no choice but to move, otherwise once the opponent found the most suitable place to attack, there would be no room for counterattack.
The iron fan flew up and down, with a series of illusory fan shadows pouncing on the Mongolian army in an unpredictable manner. It was as if a large bag full of butterflies had accidentally opened a hole, allowing all the butterflies to fly out.
"Explode!"
Meng Cong lowered his body and suddenly made a forward charge, with one knife slashing down.
Hmph!
This sword grasped the weakest point of countless fluttering shadows, piercing through the surface, and the crimson blade tip easily cut to Yi Qing's front, fast beyond imagination.
"This is a real fast knife, not moving if it doesn't want to, but once it moves, it's shocking. I wonder how far North Snow Fast Knife Lin Qi has reached." Seeing Meng Chong's knife skills, Ye Chen couldn't help but think of Lin Qi, whom he had seen at the northwest auction house. Both were famous for their fast knives, and if Meng Chong was this formidable, then Lin Qi must be even more so.
Shaking his head, Ye Chen clearly knew he still needed to work harder. He knew that above Lin Qi, there were Bei Xue Gongzi and Duanmu Gongzi pressing down on him, and further up was the leader of the young generation of Tian Feng Country - Fei Cui Gongzi.
Clang!
A crimson light flashed as the iron fan blocked the knife's path, and Yi Qing's figure fluttered out after being shaken off.
"Alright, if you can block my first strike, you must be able to block my second and third strikes." Meng's enthusiasm was ignited, the crimson blade flashed back and forth, like a huge killing net enveloping Yi Qing.
Yi Qing's iron fan in his hand exerted its full strength to protect him, but the terrifying blade still made his whole body numb and his blood boil.
"The Seventh Knife!"
This knife was launched last, but it arrived first, surpassing the several knife edges in front of it, and cut open Yi Qing's hair ribbon with one slash.
Jet-black long hair danced in the air, Yiqing put away her iron fan.
"Still can't beat you." Just now, he had already used his ultimate move, but under the overwhelming knife edge, these ultimate moves were not as smooth as ordinary moves. He understood that this was a phenomenon of the ultimate move being incomplete, otherwise it wouldn't be so easy to find loopholes. However, everything has its pros and cons, after this battle, he would more easily find his own shortcomings.
Meng Chong smiled and said: "Being able to force me to use the seventh knife is pretty good."
Next to Ye Chen, Wu Zongming sighed and said: "I don't know who can defeat Meng Chong Shixiong." After finishing speaking, he took a look at Ye Chen. The other party gave him an unfathomable feeling, and until now, he still didn't know his true strength, perhaps there was a glimmer of hope.
Of course, Wu Zongming was not very sure.
"Just keep watching and you'll see." Ye Chen didn't go make any inferences.
The sixth round of matches will soon be over.
So far, only five people have maintained a record of complete victory, namely Xueyingdao Mengchong, Taohuashou Zhouruo, Gujian Li Kuang, Tie Feng and Ye Chen.
Kuang Ren Xiao Ye and Li Yun both didn't lose, but after all, they drew a game, losing one point in the standings.
And after the seventh round, there was one less person with a full victory record. It was Zhou Ruohan, whose luck was not good and he met Tie Shanzhuo Qing, who had been fighting for over a hundred rounds and lost to his opponent in just one move. Although he lost, his strength still made people deeply fearful.
The eighth round begins amidst everyone's anticipation.
The first three rounds were barely exciting, but in the fourth round, a thunderous cheer erupted from the audience.
The two on stage were Ye Chen and Guijian Li Kuang.
If it were in the morning, the crowd would not have cheered so enthusiastically. Later on, Ye Chen continued to win and his popularity soared, gaining a large number of supporters, including some inner disciples.
On the VIP seats, Ye Tianhao and Shen Yuqing's breathing almost came to a standstill.
To say the least, this Cloud Flow Sect's inner disciple ranking tournament is one of the most heart-pounding events in their lives. Every time Ye Chen takes the stage, they hold their breath for a while, fearing to see Ye Chen fail. Although Ye Chen's achievements have already made them very satisfied, who doesn't hope that their children will be even better? Fortunately, so far, they have seen Ye Chen win again and again, and it seems quite effortless.
It's different now, Ye Chen's opponent is that unpredictable sword master Guijian Li Kuang, whether he can defeat him or not remains an unknown.
