Chapter 16 - The Defeated Genius (1/2)

Qin Changkong was dumbfounded. He never expected the unremarkable Saber in Qin Nan’s hands to actually emanate such a frightening power. At this point, he no longer had any room for regret.

Beneath the eyes of the people present, a sharp saber light heavily struck the top of the immense White Tiger’s head. The mighty and tyrannical White Tiger was forcibly shredded into pieces in an instant.

“Ah!”

Qin Changkong gave out a miserable shriek as his body was severed like the string on a kite. He was struck, flying straight into the wall. The result of this match was decided in just a single move.

The entire Conference Hall sunk into a deadly silence, and the crowd widened their eyes. The scene just a moment ago felt like a dream; they were simply unable to come back to their senses.

Qin Changkong actually lost? The number one genius of Qin Clan had actually lost?

Qin Changkong, possessing a fifth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit, was actually unable to win against Qin Nan, who didn’t even use his Martial Spirit?

“How...how is this possible?”

“Nan’er, you…” Being the number one expert of Qin Clan, Qin Tian was the first to come back to his senses; his face revealed an astonishment and delight, “Your Saber Art... Is that the middle-class Martial Skill, Thundercrash Sword Art? Hahaha! that’s definitely my son. You have actually polished your Saber Art to this degree. Although it’s not quite at the true ‘One with the Saber’ level, it has already touched upon the entrance of it.

Qin Tian brushed off his previous attitude; his complexion was very florid. However, his words were like a sudden clap of thunder, once more being thrown into the Conference Hall and causing those present to be overwhelmed with shock. Qin Nan had actually used a middle-class Martial Skill!

He used a middle-class Martial Skill, and knocked on the doors to the ‘One with the Saber’ stage. Not only that, but he had defeated Qin Changkong, who used a high-class Martial Skill and also possessed a fifth grade Martial Spirit! In this moment, the present attendees and Elders felt a painful scorching heat on their faces.

They mocked Qin Nan’s Martial Spirit grade, claimed his cultivation was trash, but then they were slapped in the face by Qin Nan’s fourth-layer of Body Tempering Realm. However, just now, they ridiculed Qin Nan once more for accepting the duel request from Qin Changkong, assuming he was bringing about his own defeat, but once again, they were caught off guard by Qin Nan’s shocking abilities. This caused the crowd to consider Qin Nan’s past achievements.

So what if it was only a first-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit?

A genius is a genius, it’s impossible to suppress one’s genius.

In the next moment, they looked directly at Qin Nan. Their eyes were no longer shuttered with disdain. Although a first-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit is not destined to have any prospects in the future, and it's simply incomparable with Qin Changkong, the current Qin Nan emerged victorious. No matter what happened, he was the one who had claimed victory; thus, one could only respect him.

“You…. you….. You…” Qin Tieba stretched his hands out and pointed at Qin Nan with trembling fingers. He continuously repeated “you” ten more times before a ‘Pu’ sound was heard. He was so angry that he started to cough blood.

Originally, the matter of Qin Tian being replaced by Qin Tieba was already concluded, however, who would’ve thought that Qin Nan would interrupt. How could Qin Tieba not be angry? However, no matter how angry he became, he could only hold it within his heart. This caused internal injuries to occur within him.

“Impossible! How is this possible?” a sharp voice resounded. Qin Changkong stood up with his face filled with rage as he frantically shouted, “How could a waste like you defeat me? I am the genius, you are only a waste!” At this moment, Qin Changkong had finally gone crazy, as he talked without reason.

How could Qin Changkong not go crazy after being defeated by an insignificant waste who possessed a first-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit? Additionally, he didn’t even use his Martial Spirit, whereas, Qin Changkong himself had used a high-class Martial Skill and his full strength.

I, Qin Changkong should be the number one genius in Qin Clan!

Qin Nan’s face was expressionless. If one were to carefully look at him, one would notice a layer of meticulous cold sweat. As Qin Tian stated before, Qin Nan had only touched upon the entrance of ‘One with the Saber Realm’. The breath-taking chop that he used just now had already exceeded his physical capabilities.

“Say something!” Qin Changkong continued to shriek, “You trash, say something!....”

Although Qin Nan’s strength was exhausted, his eyes still remained the same as before; emanating a cold aura. “Qin Changkong, don’t think your fifth-grade Huang ranked Martial Spirit is impressive. Let me tell you, there are People beyond People, and Heavens beyond Heavens. Thus, you shouldn’t be overestimating yourself. Seeing how you are a disciple of the Qin Clan, I’ll give you a word of advice... Today, you are not a match for me, and neither will you be in the future. Thus, don’t look down on people with your dog-like eyes.”

“You….” Qin Changkong got so mad that his body began to tremble, his face turned purple, yet unexpectedly, he was unable to retort.
