Chapter 291
“Hmph, in the next round, we’re switching levels . Let the core disciples fight!” snorted Luo Bing .
“Oh? Shouldn’t the next round be switched to inner disciples? Could it be you’ve lost so much that you can’t count anymore?” mocked Long Chen .
In truth, Long Chen was well aware that Luo Bing had realized that doing that was unfavorable to her . Outer disciples and inner disciples weren’t her true fighting force . Although they had all obtained more resources that the 108th monastery’s disciples, they still weren’t able to compare to them .
After all, they were all true warriors who had killed their way out of the battlefield . Fighting like this was too unfavorable for them . And so she wanted to immediately raise the level so that their superiority could show .
After all, core disciples received many more resources than the others . They were the true experts .
The fact that Long Chen had pointed that out caused Luo Bing’s face to burn, but she still quibbled, “These fights aren’t interesting enough, and are just a waste of time . Only by immediately going to the highest fighting level will there be any meaning to exchanging pointers . ”
Long Chen was too lazy to argue with her . That was because he saw that Gu Yang and the other disciples’ eyes were glowing, each of them like hungry wolves who had seen their prey .
After that huge battle, Long Chen had told them to cut down on duels between them as much as possible, so they were all feeling stifled .
“Then we’ll do it like you said,” said Long Chen indifferently .
A figure from their side rushed onto the martial stage . That was a medium build man whose gaze was like a reserved sword . His aura was shocking .
“I am Zhu Feng . Who wants to come exchange pointers with me?” That person was naturally a core disciple . But at this point, he had reserved a bit of his overbearing manner .
That was because now they all knew these disciples had all just gone through a great life and death battle . They were all true warriors, and they didn’t dare take them lightly again .
“Let me . ” Suddenly another figure jumped onto the martial stage . That person carried a sword on his back, and he gave off a very proud and aloof feeling .
“Yue Zifeng!”
Long Chen smiled slightly . Although they had temporarily been opponents for a moment while fighting for the Profound Spirit Fruit, Long Chen had always felt that Yue Zifeng was a pretty good person . He acted like most sword cultivators: proud and aloof .
Later, Long Chen had heard from other core disciples that it wasn’t just Tang Wan-er and Ye Zhiqiu who had achieved a perfect advancement . Gu Yang, Yue Zifeng, and Song Mingyuan had also reached that level .
As for the other core disciples, they had all achieved flawless advancements . But a perfect advancement would make a person’s foundation even st.u.r.dier, and allow them to reach even greater heights in the future .
Yue Zifeng normally wasn’t very talkative, and people didn’t really understand him very well . Seeing him jump onto the martial stage, Long Chen was filled with antic.i.p.ation .
Yue Zifeng was now like an unsheathed blade, his powerful aura making it so others found it hard to breathe .
Luo Bing’s pupils suddenly shrunk . She hadn’t expected such a powerful person to have appeared within the 108th monastery .
With her Xiantian-level eyesight, she could immediately tell that Yue Zifeng was a powerful sword cultivator .
Sword cultivators weren’t the same as other cultivators . They believed in their sword, and through a resonance with their sword, they were able to release a power that others were unable to comprehend .
In the ancient legends, there was a sword G.o.d high above the nine heavens . All sword cultivators who focused wholeheartedly on the Sword Dao would receive the sword G.o.d’s blessing .
But of course, such a saying was just a saying, and no one would believe it . However, it was publicly accepted that sword cultivators were much stronger than others in the same realm .
Yue Zifeng’s imposing mannerism already contained a hint of the Sword Dao’s grace . He clearly had quite a high level of accomplishment when it came to the Sword Dao .
Previously, he had always been staying in the back of the crowd, indifferently watching . That was why Luo Bing hadn’t noticed him . Now she had a bad feeling .
“Are you prepared?” Yue Zifeng icily looked at his opponent . His right hand slowly grasped his sword hilt . The instant he gripped that hilt, a cold aura shot out in all directions .
“Come . ” Zhu Feng’s guard was at its peak . A spear appeared in his hands, and his aura also erupted out .
“Careful!”
Yue Zifeng’s voice rang out along with the unsheathing of a blade . That ringing was like a dragon cry, and a bolt of lightning seemed to have appeared on the martial arena . That bolt was the light from his sword .
Fast . Too fast . The instant others saw Yue Zifeng take out his sword, his sword had already reached Zhu Feng’s body .
Zhu Feng had long since been on guard, but he had still never imagined Yue Zifeng’s sword would be so terrifying . It was already next to him by the time he reacted, and he hastily went to block .
With an explosive bang, Zhu Feng was sent flying by a terrifying force . Inside, he was absolutely horrified . If Yue Zifeng hadn’t purposely given him a warning at the beginning, he might not have been able to react in time and would have died .
That sword of his was too terrifying . At the same time, he blessed his luck that he had been comparatively more humble than the other disciples . That was probably why Yue Zifeng had given him that warning .
“Careful . ”
Just as Zhu Feng was retreating, a sharp attack went straight for his abdomen . In fact, he could practically feel the sword stabbing into his body .
