Looking at Fang Xingjian’s expression when he turned over, Hamil and the others were all stunned for a moment.

Seeing that the three of them remained silent, Fang Xingjian said calmly, “To me, what’s the difference between you and blind people?”

The three of them wanted to rebut, but thinking of Fang Xingjian’s earlier actions, it was true that they had not been able to see it clearly. They did not even know how many kicks Fang Xingjian had landed on Edger.

‘How could he be so fast?’

Aside from the fact that Fang Xingjian had beaten up Edger, what astonished the three of them more was his speed, which was now even faster than before.

And the Radiant Light Sword Technique he had performed earlier was accurate, as if he had never turned blind.

The Fang Xingjian who stood before them with his eyes closed seemed to be even more terrifying than before.

But in the next moment, the three of them thought about the same thing.

‘Thank goodness, thank goodness that there is the Pantheon Monument Observation in the Regional Selection. With him being blind, there’s no way that he can get through this stage. His starting point is still behind us and it’s impossible for him to take part in the Regional Selection.’

A hint of rejoice flashed past Hamil’s face.

Ralph shook his head as he gazed at Fang Xingjian with pity.

Only Rota stared at Fang Xingjian’s tightly shut eyes, as if she hoped to see his eyes. She suddenly had the feeling that this person might really be able to breakthrough to Heaven’s Perception and pass the Regional Selection.

‘But how would it be possible to breakthrough to Heaven’s Perception in three months’ time? It has only been six months since he had completed his transition. How could it be possible?’

However, after Fang Xingjian threw out the question, he turned back toward Edger’s direction. Edger was still bellowing, his body flashing as he appeared a hundred meters away from Fang Xingjian.

He drew out a foldable longbow from his waist which was exploding and shooting out streams of electricity. Edger moved around Fang Xingjian at supersonic speed.

As the previous Headmaster’s son and the genius who had became the Prefectural Champion back then, his abilities now were at the pinnacle amongst those in the first transition. He was even a little stronger than Clan Elders like Rebecca. HIs instantaneous explosive force could even allow him to move at supersonic speed.

The next moment, it were as if ten thousand shooting stars had fallen from the sky. Countless crossbow arrows rained down from all directions like laser beams. This was archery at supersonic speed, and each shot transformed into ten arrows which split out.

Fang Xingjian had no way to sense supersonic arrows. He did not even know how many arrows had been shot out by him in that instant.

However, this did not mean that he had no way to deal with it. When he sensed that Edger had disappeared from the perimeters of his sense, he abruptly charged forth. Although Fang Xingjian did not go all out at full force, he moved with four times supersonic speed. In an instant, he was five hundred meters away and standing at the borders of the training ground.

Only then did those supersonic arrows hit Fang Xingjian’s afterimage, creating a series of loud explosive sounds and causing the stone surface to shatter.

Although Fang Xingjian could not see the attack, no one would be able to catch up to his speed if he was hell-bent on escaping.

Edger realized this as well and was fuming in rage. He was just about to nock more arrows when he saw a lump of white light appear at Fang Xingjian’s fingertip. The Radiant Light Sword Technique was once again activated and it the next moment, Fang Xingjian was shooting out streams of white light from his body, turning the area within a ten-meter radius completely white. One would be unable to assess his actual position.

Amidst the light, Fang Xingjian had not expected that Edger had such capabilities. To think that he could also surpass supersonic speed, preventing Fang Xingjian from sensing him.

If that was the case, Fang Xingjian could probably only rely on the Ether Sword Ripples to defeat Edger. He could dash up to the estimated position Edger was around and release up to a hundred Ether Sword Ripples around him within a ten-meter radius.

However, that was a bit hard to control. He might accidentally kill him or miss him completely.

Facing the Radiant Light Sword Technique, Edger also hesitated. If he could not see his target, it would be very hard for him to hit.
