47 Showing Their Skills (1/2)

Last year, the four great geniuses had been ranked, with Xin Wuheng easily coming first. Second was Qiu Mengyu, third Zhao Linlong, and fourth Qiu Changyi.

First was at the Xin family, while second and fourth were both the Qiu family competitors. The Zhao family was easily last. But this year, it had all changed!

Not only did Zhao Linlong reach the sixth rank, Zhao Feng and Zhao Yufei had both reached the fifth rank at such young ages.

The families only compared how many of the younger generations had reached the fifth rank or higher.

The Zhao family had five: Zhao Linlong, Zhao Chi, Zhao Feng, Zhao Han, and Zhao Yufei.

The Xin family only had three, including Xin Tong who had just reached the fifth rank.

The Qiu family had four, which included Qiu Mengyu and Qiu Changyi, two of the four great geniuses.

“This year’s summit will be intense…” Zhao family’s dominance made the other two families feel pressured.

When everyone had arrived, the summit officially started. The summit was mainly for sparring and communicating. According to the rules, anyone could show off their skills or challenge someone.

After they finished sparring, the two would exchange pointers.

*************************

_On the clear open space in the middle of the summit..._

“I’ve trained a skill named Swiping Cloud Leg and it has reached the peak level.”

A youth kicked out with both legs. Soon, he began to kick even faster. Finally, only an afterimage was left. It was like a chaotic storm of legs.

“Not bad. To be able to train a middle ranked skill to the peak level,” the crowd praised. This youth wasn’t from the three major families. Instead, he was the top genius from a small family.

After showing off, his fiery hot eyes stared at Qiu Mengyu “I wish to spar with the most beautiful girl of Sun Feather City.”

As soon as he finished, he caused an uproar from the crowd.

“Just you? You want to spar with Qiu Mengyu? In your dreams!”

“You first have to beat me if you want to challenge Qiu Mengyu!” From the Qiu family, a youth of the fourth rank sprang out.

The two soon clashed together. The person from the Qiu family had cultivated a high ranked martial art. Obviously, the Qiu family disciple won after fifty-some moves.

“Hmph! You still have face to come to the summit with your puny strength?” the Qiu family disciple mocked.

The talented youths from the three big families had better cultivation techniques and skills. Therefore, their strength was much stronger than others on the same level.

This Qiu youth was soon challenged by someone from the Xin family.

The summit had a rule. The sparring at the beginning was only for those at the fourth rank. People of the fifth rank or higher couldn’t join in.

Soon, Zhao Qin and Zhao Ling from the Zhao sect went up, both winning and losing some.

As time passed, the strength of those onstage rose.

“I, Zhao Han, want to see how strong you are.” Zhao Han stood at the center of the open ground.

His eyes scanned the cultivators of the fifth rank from the Xin and Qiu family. Although the Xin family only had three, their strengths were all strong.

“I’ll do it!” Xin Tong slowly stood up and threw off the grass hat on his head. He had sparred with Zhao Han the last time. But because his cultivation level was lower, he had lost.

“Defeated trash!” Zhao Han coldly laughed and attacked first.

“Steel Wall Arm!”

Xin Tong’s arm turned to bronze and the muscles on his arm tightened. Under the circulation of his Inner Strength, it headed straight towards Zhao Han.

Ice Cold Palm!

A weird ice cold Inner Strength radiated from Zhao Han and appeared on his palm.

_Pah—-_

The two energies clashed heavily together. Zhao Han was knocked back a few steps while Xin Tong felt his arm turn numb from the cold.

The two had their own advantages: Zhao Han’s advantage was that his Inner Strength was at the peak fifth rank, while Xin Tong’s was that his body strength and defense were higher.

Because Xin Tong had reached the fifth rank, his Inner Strength had also reached this level, and combined with Steel Wall Arm, it had become even more powerful.

The two exchanged tens of blows without seeing an end result.

But as time passed, Zhao Han started to feel tired. Every time they clashed, his arm would turn numb from the rebound.

And since Xin Tong’s defense was extremely strong, he didn’t get injured easily.

Finally, after one hundred or so moves, Zhao Han started to weaken while Xin Tong started to attack more fiercely.

“The spar ends here,” Qiu Mengyu gently smiled and stopped the two.

Next, she analyzed the two’s strengths and weaknesses. “Zhao Han, although your Inner Strength is very strong, its foundation isn’t very solid. I recommend that you train a body strengthening technique. As for Xin Tong, although your defense is your specialty and your offense is also powerful, you rely too much on pure power. Your martial arts skills aren’t up to scratch…”

Qiu Mengyu’s analysis was perfect. There were also others that joined in the discussion. They also decided that Xin Tong had won this match.

“Hehe, who’s going to come from the Zhao family? Zhao Linlong? Or Zhao Feng?” Xin Tong had his arms crossed and he chewed on a piece of grass as he looked at the Zhao family.

There were too many talented people in the Zhao family from this generation, so the other families had teamed up to challenge the Zhao family’s geniuses.

Finally, Xin Tong’s eyes locked onto Zhao Feng as he didn’t have any confidence in beating Zhao Linlong. Zhao Linlong’s cultivation had reached the sixth rank and no one apart from the four great geniuses would have the courage to challenge him.
