Chapter 312 - Nine-ringed Saber (2/2)

He certainly exerted all his force and displayed his brilliance through the slash.

Seeing as the l.u.s.ter pierced the air, the Yang Grade powerhouses who fought for a spot with him earlier were taken aback. They wondered at the same time how they could resist the attack if they were up against him.

They were disheartened by their answers.

This was because they were not confident about taking advantage while being faced with the saber. In fact, they suspected they would be forced to be pa.s.sive even if they managed to withstand the attack.

Sure enough, a powerhouse at the peak of Yang Grade had outstanding abilities.

If Woo Lejia were to exchange blows with the previous three Yang Grade powerhouses, he would likely have more wins than losses.

That said, the moment the other men were in awe of Woo Lejia’s abilities, they noticed that he paused for a split second. Following that, Woo Lejia abandoned his saber and retreated as if something was pursuing him, so he was forced to give up his treasure saber.

Having said that, nothing was in front of him at all.

A Yang Grade powerhouses among the crowd asked softly, “Brother Wu, is your clan’s Simulated Spiritual Attack Fist Technique so vivid?”

“It’s impossible. I’ve cultivated the fist technique too. While I didn’t succeed due to the lack of talent, I’ve witnessed the fist technique’s greatest might,” another Yang Grade powerhouse noted with a bitter smile. He shook his head and lowered his voice such that even his partner only heard him faintly. “Even if my clan’s great ancestor executes it, we can only see some blurry scenes.”

“Blurry scenes?” The first powerhouse looked at Woo Lejia and asked, “Can blurry scenes make Woo Lejia abandon his weapon?”

He fell silent for a while before he uttered faintly, “In one’s dreams!”

A martial artist’s weapon was the most important thing because it was a treasure that one relied on to survive and to resist enemies.

In a way, a weapon was one’s second life. Unless one was forced, how could one throw away one’s weapon? Besides, the nine-ringed saber had a significant meaning for Woo Lejia. Given that he took the initiative to leave it behind, what exactly did he see in the void?

In a further ring, Wu Hanning was bright-eyed and highly spirited as she watched the fight. She almost wanted to go up to Ou Yangming’s ring to have a taste of the attack

‘Ah, it’s such a mighty simulated spiritual ability. Perhaps that person is the only one in the whole imperial family… No, in the whole world who can pull it off.

‘But judging from that person’s ident.i.ty, he won’t show up unless the world is on the verge of destruction.’

“Your Royal Highness, looks like the imperial family’s Spiritual Fist Technique is going to be pa.s.sed on to a different person,” Zuoqiu Hongyuan commented and laughed. He was talking to Wu Hanning, but he fixed his gaze on Ou Yangming and displayed intense fighting will.

Ever since Ou Yangming dominated the ring as a Yin Grade martial artist, he attracted everyone’s attention. The young fellow had accepted challenges from seven people thus far, whereas Zuoqiu Hongyuan and Wu Hanning seemed to have been forgotten throughout the period.

Nonetheless, Zuoqiu Hongyuan would not envy Ou Yangming because of this; he was not a short-sighted person. Despite that, he was keen to fight the unpredictable opponent. He could not wait to have an exciting match against Ou Yangming to release the burning fire in his heart.

As for the gap between their cultivation bases…

At this point, n.o.body regarded Ou Yangming as a Yin Grade martial artist anymore.

Even Zuoqiu Hongyuan admitted that the young fellow was capable of challenging him.

Wu Hanning curled her lips into a beautiful smile beneath her scarf.

“Young Master Zuoqiu, you’re overthinking it. Master Ou is part of the imperial family.”

“What?” Zuoqiu Hongyuan was slightly stunned, and he finally looked surprised. “Brother… Ou is a part of your clan?”

Wu Hanning proudly put her hands behind her back without saying a word.

She thought, ‘Even if he isn’t now, he’ll surely become one of ours in the future.’

After all, the imperial family would value Ou Yangming because he learned the secret technique, and they would rope him into their system at all costs.

Ou Yangming was G.o.d-gifted, but there were many gifted powerhouses like him in the imperial family’s past generations. Additionally, Wu Hanning was even more confident about this because she was sure the secluded member of the imperial family would be interested in the young fellow.

Her eyes looked hollow as she stared at Ou Yangming

‘Work hard! The more powerful you become, the nearer you are to me!’
