Chapter 15 - One With the Saber (2/2)
“White Tiger Pouncing at Prey!”
Qin Changkong’s eyes revealed an ominous glint as he slowly took a stance. It was as though his body became a white tiger. The manifested white tiger behind his back mimicked his movements exactly. The lofty body of the tiger slowly stooped, its mouth revealing two fierce teeth that emanated a serene and cold ray. A man and a beast, it was as though the two were indistinguishable as they emanated an intense and tyrannical qi. As Qin Changkong struck out, those present immediately erupted. Their faces revealed a great shock.
“It turns out to be this high-tier Martial Skill. According to the legends, this high-tier Martial Skill is the hardest one to practice. Once you have mastered it, the man and Martial Spirit can synchronize with each other. Furthermore, Qin Changkong possessed the White Tiger Martial Spirit!”
“This Martial Skill is simply made for Qin Changkong!”
“He was able to comprehend this Martial Skill in just half a month. Possessing a fifth-grade, Huang ranked Martial Spirit is definitely of no small matter. Hahaha! At this rate, this waste Qin Nan will definitely be out of luck.”
“Humph! Qin Nan is overestimating his own strength. Does he think that he can become number one in the world by just acquiring a fortuitous encounter?”
“Hahaha! Watch as the Young Master Qin Changkong teaches this waste a lesson.”
Suddenly, the present attendees turned passionate. As they looked at Qin Nan and Qin Tian, their eyes brimmed with joy for the disaster they expected to occur. They believed that it would only require one move for Qin Changkong’s immense White Tiger to shred Qin Nan into pieces.
Qin Tian’s complexion was incomparably pale; his gaze was fixated on this scene. If something went wrong, he planned to use all his strength to intervene. No matter what happened, he couldn’t just watch helplessly as Qin Nan suffered. Qin Nan’s face remained the same as he slowly pulled out the Black Iron Saber from his waist.
“You’re not going to release your Martial Spirit?” Qin Changkong licked his lips. It was as if he had turned into a hungry tiger, “Don’t worry, I won’t pull anything like a sneak attack. Although your Flame Saber is only at first-grade, Huang ranked Martial Spirit, it is still much stronger than the lousy Saber in your hand.”
In Qin Changkong’s mind, Qin Nan would undoubtedly lose. Thus, Qin Changkong was not in a hurry. His current objective was to unceasingly mock Qin Nan and wipe clean the humiliation he’d received earlier. However, in this moment the words that came from Qin Nan enraged Qin Changkong so much that he almost spit blood.
“There’s no need for me to use my Martial Spirit against a trash like you,” Qin Nan held his Saber and gave an indifferent smile. It was as if Qin Changkong was at the same level as an ant in his eyes.
As the surrounding attendees heard this, they were all flabbergasted. Just how arrogant and egotistical was Qin Nan? He even dared to insult Qin Changkong!
“You…. you…. You’re courting death!” Qin Changkong was so angry that his entire body trembled, and his face turned red from anger. As he bellowed this, he could no longer contain himself. Killing intent rose from his body, and his figure viciously pounced toward Qin Nan.
As Qin Changkong’s figure attacked, the White Tiger behind his body followed his movements. If one were to view this from a distance, it would look as if the human and beast had merged together. Brandishing its immense claw toward Qin Nan’s figure, it looked ready to shred him apart. In this instant, the violent brandish caused a strong gale and the tiger’s hiss shook the heavens.
Qin Nan’s body suddenly pulled back, his eyes turning incomparably sharp. He couldn’t help but admit that the high-tier Martial Skill Qin Changkong was using could instantly kill a fourth-layer Body Tempering Realm cultivator... Even your average fifth-grade Body Tempering Realm cultivator was simply not his equal. However, in front of Qin Nan, that was far from enough!
In an instant, Qin Nan’s eyes suddenly shut tight. Within his heart was a mysterious feeling. The Black Iron Saber in Qin Nan’s hands felt as though it had received a sort of attraction, and suddenly, his body began to tremble, letting out a buzzing sound. Beneath the killing move, White Tiger Pouncing at Prey, this sound was exceedingly weak. However, the attendees who were watching this battle were all at the fifth-layer of Body Tempering Realm, and they could immediately sense the noise.
“This….” Second Elder and Third Elder took a deep breath and said in astonishment, “Could it possibly be the legendary ‘One with the Saber’?”
In the moment when the two people’s voices came out, Qin Nan had already struck out with his Saber. The Saber was aggressive and gracious, domineering and tyrannical. Following this was an explosion of sound like thunder. An ice cold aura suddenly surged throughout the Hall of Conference.
“Thundercrash Saber Art!”
When the saber chopped out, there would be only death; no wound. The killing intent immediately surged.
