Sword Spirit Jian Shang: He Had Not Used Even a Tenth of His Strength
A figure as ethereal as smoke emerged from the No Trace Sword and slowly coalesced behind Nan Xunran.
The figure gently wrapped her arms around his neck and whispered, "So you finally remembered me?"
Nan Xunran nodded slightly.
Qiu Lingxuan exclaimed, "Jian Shang out here?"
Everyone was amazed.
"This is the legendary No Trace Sword!"
"So beautiful!"
"Stop thinking about it, I can't sense her aura."
Su Zhuyi placed her sword in front of her, ready for battle.
Jian Shang grasped Nan Xunran's sword-wielding hand, and the two exerted their strength together, unleashing a sharp sword beam that shot towards Su Zhuyi in an instant.
Su Zhuyi fought back with all her might, but was forced to the edge of the ring.
Qiu Lingxuan shouted anxiously, "Don't take his attack head-on! They haven't even used their full strength yet!"
Su Zhuyi murmured, "Amazing, it even has a sword spirit."
Jian Shang looked at Su Zhuyi, his gaze scrutinizing her. "This little girl has Innate Sword Body."
With that, she moved forward, saying, "I'm going to play with her."
Nan Xunran said calmly, "Don't use your full strength."
Jian Shang nodded and replied, "Understood."
Jian Shang flashed and sped towards Su Zhuyi.
Upon seeing this, Su Zhuyi's beautiful eyes narrowed, and she quickly swung her sword at her.
Jian Shang Sorrow moved like a ghost, easily dodging the fierce attack with a slight dodge.
She appeared in front of Su Zhuyi in the blink of an eye, and the two instantly became entangled in a fight.
Nan Xunran her gaze to Qiu Lingxuan, her figure vanished instantly, and the next moment, Nan Xunran had already appeared behind Qiu Lingxuan.
Qiu Lingxuan hurriedly turned around and slashed.
With a slight movement of the No Trace Sword in Nan Xunran's hand, a gentle breeze arose, which instantly transformed into a violent hurricane, engulfing Qiu Lingxuan entirely.
Several Sword Qi slashed towards Qiu Lingxuan gripped the heavy greatsword tightly with both hands and swung it with all his might.
In an instant, the Sword Qi collided fiercely with the sword blade, and the originally menacing Sword Qi dissipated into nothingness.
However, before Qiu Lingxuan could even breathe a sigh of relief, a huge sword shadow appeared above his head and slowly slashed down.
The aura emanating from this sword shadow was terrifying beyond measure, as if it could crush everything in the world into dust.
Qiu Lingxuan's eyes widened, and the sword in his hand suddenly emitted a dazzling light, its blade instantly becoming incredibly heavy.
He used all his strength, laboriously raising his sword high and slashing at the sword shadow.
With a deafening roar, the sword shadow shattered, and fragments fell to the ground.
These fragments instantly transformed into fine needles, swiftly piercing towards Qiu Lingxuan.
Qiu Lingxuan's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly erected a light shield to try and block it.
Unfortunately, the light shield was extremely fragile in the face of this attack and was shattered in an instant.
He couldn't dodge in time, and countless needles formed from Sword Qi mercilessly pierced his body.
Qiu Lingxuan groaned and fell heavily to the ground, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
Su Zhuyi caught a glimpse of Qiu Lingxuan falling to the ground and her mind went blank for a moment.
Jian Shang said coldly, "Still dare to be distracted?"
With that, she swung her arm violently, and a Sword Qi surged toward Su Zhuyi with an unstoppable and terrifying momentum.
In the instant the crisis struck, a barrier appeared out of thin air in front of Su Zhuyi.
Her eyes widened, and a thought flashed through her mind: a protective magic artifact?
This protective artifact only ever manifests to protect its owner when her life is threatened. Could this be Jian Shang's true power...?
Before she could think it through, Su Zhuyi's expression suddenly changed. She saw cracks appearing on her protective magic artifact. She couldn't believe it; even a magic artifact couldn't withstand it?
Just as the Sword Qi was about to strike Su Zhuyi, Nan Xunran flashed and blocked Sword Qi.
Su Zhuyi was stunned; she had actually caught the Sword Qi with one hand.
Jian Shang returned to Nan Xunran's side and, seeing Nan Xunran looking at her, quickly said, "I was wrong, I couldn't control my power."
She stepped forward to help Su Zhuyi up and asked, "Are you alright?"
But in her heart she was thinking, if something happened, she would be in big trouble.
Su Zhuyi remained in a daze. Jian Shang waved his hand in front of her eyes, and Su Zhuyi finally came to her senses and asked, "Was that... your full strength just now?"
Jian Shang shook his head slightly and said, "Just now? That should have been about one-tenth of my strength?"
Upon hearing this, Su Zhuyi paused for a moment, then turned to look at Nan Xunran and asked, "What about him?"
Jian Shang Scar replied casually, "Him? He's just messing around with you guys; he hasn't even used a tenth of his strength."
Su Zhuyi was completely stunned upon hearing this.
On one side of the arena, Qiu Lingxuan overheard their conversation and felt his blood rush to his head, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood.
He cried out in utter helplessness, "I lost! I lost!"
Su Zhuyi's expression also darkened, and she whispered, "I lost."
Just then, a flash of light appeared, and the words in the air changed.
[Tianjiao Battle]
[First: Nan Xunran]
[Second: Su Zhuyi]
[Third: Qiu Lingxuan]
There was initial silence from the audience, followed by a quiet whisper, "The first place is that Nan Clan again."
"We didn't see the true strength of the Nan Clan until the very end."
"More than that, that person hasn't even made a move much, it's truly terrifying."
Jian Shang transformed into a wisp of smoke and returned to the No Trace Sword. Nan Xunran put away the No Trace Sword.
The group slowly walked off the stage.
Pei Zimo and the others hurriedly stepped forward.
Pei Zimo cheered excitedly, "As expected of our lord!"
Ning Shi respectfully replied, "Congratulations, Your Majesty."
Jin Jinyu gently tapped Nan Xunran's chest with her finger and said in a sweet voice, "Our Divine Child is truly amazing, worthy of our utmost admiration."
Nan Xunran glanced at her indifferently.
"Congratulations Divine Son Xunran." Nan Xunran turned around upon hearing the voice and saw Yan Lingxue walking towards him.
Another figure appeared, accompanied by the crisp sound of silver ornaments, "Congratulations."
As she spoke, the Nether Scales around You Qimeng's neck hissed.
Nan Xunran nodded slightly.
You Qimeng waved gently at him and said, "I look forward to seeing you again."
With that, she vanished from everyone's sight in a flash.
