237 First 1 (2/2)
“Clan Master, Teacher, Elders. I’ve made my decision. Being a cultivator of the sword, one should always go forward. Furthermore, it’s my wish to get first place in the Alliance Banquet.”
Cang Yuyue’s face was decisive and filled with belief. Her aura of the sword caused the nearby swords to tremble slightly.
The finals arena.
The battles continued. After the eighth round, there was only one thing that was important.
3rd place 4th place, 5th place… these rankings had been almost confirmed.
The only thing that everyone wanted to know was who was going to rise to the top.
First in the Alliance Banquet.
This was a glorious position to any of the Thirteen Clans.
This was a moment that would be recorded into history.
Cang Yuyue and Zhao Feng. Who would come first?
This topic was frequently discussed amongst the Thirteen Clans.
‘Cang Yuyue’s probability of winning is greater since she’s comprehended the seed of sword intent. No one under the True Spirit Realm can withstand a sword of hers.”
“But Cang Yuyue seems to be injured after battling Lin Tong. Or else why would there be three Elders healing her?”
“Zhao Feng’s true strength isn’t confirmed yet. I think this battle can go either ways… ”
Although the battles were still continuing, most of the people only cared about first place.
Finally, in the tenth round of battles, the Alliance Banquet welcomed the most pinnacle battle.
“Cang Yuyue vs Zhao Feng.”
The older generation at the True Spirit Realm and representing disciples were all looking forward to this battle.
Zhao Feng expressionlessly walked onto the arena. Cang Yuyue was a bit slower and from the spectating stand, it seemed that she had recovered. The sizzle of sword intent in her eyes made others unable to look at her straight on.
Cang Yuyue had comprehended the seed of sword intent and a glance from her could shatter the confidence and battle intent from cultivators of the 6th and 7th Sky.
From this, one could see how powerful sword intent was.
Sword Intent contained the belief of the sword and this power was displayed through mental energy to slash through the void.
When Cang Yuyue stepped onto the arena, her sword intent aura had been condensed to the max.
There was a belief of slashing past everything and charging forwards.
The weird thing was that both Zhao Feng and Cang Yuyue didn’t attack immediately.
After fighting Lin Tong, Cang Yuyue understood that mental energy attacks were faster than physical attacks. Furthermore, her seed of sword intent would be used only when Zhao Feng’s mental energy attack came out, then she would block it and then decide the battle with one sword.
“Cang Yuyue, your mind’s injury isn’t fully healed now. Under the unstable mental energy, your seed of sword intent isn’t stable and it could be critical.”
Zhao Feng stood with his hands behind his back and smiled. He didn’t immediately attack.
Zhao Feng’s eyes locked on Cang Yuyue’s.
Even though the latter had comprehended the seed of sword intent, her heart still shook when she saw Zhao Feng’s God’s Spiritual Eye.
It was an eye that seemed to survey the earth. This eye gave her pressure that was even several times greater than Lin Tong’s Heavenly Absent Eye.
Cang Yuyue’s blood stiffened and this was because she didn’t have a bloodline power.
“So what? Even under this situation, I believe that I can beat you with one sword.”
Cang Yuyue’s sword aura became stronger and her green sword trembled slightly.
It was a belief that she could win with one sword.
After comprehending the seed of sword intent, Cang Yuyue’s strength had risen to another level.
Across the Thirteen Clan disciples, no one could confidently block a sword of hers - including Zhao Feng.
“You’re wrong. No one has ever harmed me since the start of the Alliance Banquet. Even Lin Tong was easily defeated by me when you just barely won and was injured as a result.”
Zhao Feng’s battle intent surged. His God’s Spiritual Eye flashed with an azure light and turned sharp, like he was the King surveying his positions.
“So what?”
Cang Yuyue found that Zhao Feng’s belief and confidence was rising and clashing with her seed of sword intent.
“You can’t do what I can do. This means that you’re critically flawed.” Zhao Feng said confidently.
Cang Yuyue paused, but then she laughed in disdain. However, Zhao Feng’s next words caused her heart to shake.
“All your strength can be seen with my eyes. And yet you know nothing of my true strength and methods.”
Zhao Feng’s God’s Spiritual Eye flashed with an azure light and every word, every sound and even every breath had a mysterious power to it.
Under the locking on of the God’s Spiritual Eye, Cang Yuyue’s body stiffened. She felt like all her secrets had been seen and this was the reason that she didn’t instantly slash out.
“Yuyue, don’t be affected by his words. He’s trying to break through the flaw in your heart.”
“Don’t listen to him. Since you’ve drawn your sword, defeat him with your unparalleled belief.”
The older generation of the Cloud Sword Clan was anxious.
