All Bowed Their Heads

Lou Fengcheng's injured body fell from the sky. Under the influence of Square Inch Book, although he remained expressionless, his body's instincts still caused him to cough up a few mouthfuls of blood.

[My Sky Mending Colorful Cloud Robe is Third Grade magic robe, capable of withstanding even Third Grade Yi Wood Divine Thunder. Why couldn't it block his Sword Light just now?]

Since Chen Mobai had not displayed the Azure Flame Sword Sha, Lou Fengcheng's database did not contain any information on it. He still regarded the bright blue light from before as Sword Light, only that its power had been increased to the Third Grade level.

Even a powerful Sword Light shouldn't be able to pierce through my Third Grade magic robe so easily!

Fortunately, he avoided my vital points, so my injuries weren't serious. I can still maintain my peak condition with the help of the power of the Square Inch Book...

Lou Fengcheng out and covered the bloody hole in his right shoulder. Colorful light flashed in his palm. He was about to stop the bleeding first, and then use the Square Inch Book to forcibly control his body and stimulate his potential for a final test.

With a hiss, his palm, which he had just covered his shoulder, was suddenly pierced by a streak of brilliant blue light.

Lou Fengcheng remained expressionless and unchanged in his gaze while engrossed in the small book.

He raised his palm, and the wisp of cinnabar-blue light ignited like a flame at the wound, transforming into streams of intense heat along his veins, causing his blood to boil instantly! Suddenly, a sound rang out.

A clear, shimmering flame ignited on Lou Fengcheng's shoulders and palms, as if his body was burning inside, his flesh and blood becoming fuel, and the heat of the flames bursting forth through the wounds.

The Square Inch Book was suppressing the various negative states of physical weakness, pain, burning sensation, etc., suddenly dissipated automatically at this moment.

The three-dimensional golden figure of Chen Mobai in Lou Fengcheng's left eye suddenly dissipated. His face twisted in an instant, and he collapsed onto the lake surface in pain, opening his mouth to drink the lake water like a dragon sucking water.

"Oh, Square Inch Book is quite intelligent, isn't it? Did it realize that you'd die if you continued to maintain this ' Flawless Heavenly Garment ' state?"

This was the first time Chen Mobai had used the Sword Aura in real life, and Lou Fengcheng was the first person to be hit by the Azure Flame Sword Sha.

Now it seems that the power of this sword aura is much greater than he imagined.

The Third Grade Sky Mending Colorful Cloud Robe was pierced by the "scorching" and "armor-slicing" effects of the Azure Flame Sword Sha, coupled with the concentrated attack on a single point, which made it appear extremely vulnerable.

After the sword energy entered his body, Lou Fengcheng initially felt that his injuries were not serious, but under the continuous effects of "Burn Blood" and "scorching", he immediately felt his blood begin to boil.

If Square Inch Book hadn't been truly extraordinary, shedding his Flawless Heavenly Garment state at the crucial moment, Lou Fengcheng would probably have only stopped fighting after his internal organs were completely cooked and his life force exhausted.

"This is... Sword Demon!?"

On the platform of the Star Gazing Academy, Ding Chunzhi, who had been slacking off the whole time, couldn't help but be shocked and blurted out.

Upon hearing his words, the more than one hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators who were still shocked by the power of Chen Mobai's sword light were all dumbfounded, looking at the handsome young man standing in the center of the lake with disbelief.

On the Pure Yang Academy's side, this year's Chief had a blank expression and stiffly turned to look at Xiahou Weihuan, whose face was ashen.

He was the first person present to recognize Jian Sha.

But he didn't want to admit that, besides him, there was actually a second Foundation Establishment True Cultivator.

"That's impossible!"

Pei Azurefrost, who had always been confident in herself and had a self-assured expression, shook her head, her eyes filled with disbelief.

No one understood the difficulty of condensing sword energy better than her.

Leaving aside the evil energy of the earth, just to hone one's Sword Light to its peak, one needs to imbue it with spirituality, and Spiritual Sense and physical body must be able to withstand the backlash of the sword evil. This is something that Sword Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Realm simply cannot do.

Pei Azurefrost could do three of them, but her physical strength was insufficient to withstand the sword energy entering her body.

After all, the sword energy is at the Third Grade. Although she is also a genius and has no shortage of resources, she still has no way of mastering the Third Grade body tempering method at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

On the platform of the Goumang Dao Academy, after Wenren Xuewei confirmed that it was Jian Sha, her beautiful eyes held a strange expression.

If he were to unleash this sword aura against me, would I be able to withstand the excruciating pain of my flesh burning and my blood boiling?

Although Wenren Xuewei was confident that she could ignore the destructive power of the sword aura with the help of the Evergreen Technique, she knew that the strength of her Spiritual Sense was limited. If the pain of repeated physical injuries exceeded her limit, she might faint.

If I were to truly unleash the power of the Great Camphor Tree itself...

Wenren Xuewei mentally simulated the scene of fighting Chen Mobai, who was using all his sword energy. She realized that it was fortunate that she had spoken up and made peace with him yesterday, otherwise, they might have really ended up losing.

Even if she could use the power of the Great Camphor Tree to suppress this sword aura, her own Spiritual Sense would definitely exceed its limit and she would faint on the spot.

Little did she know that Chen Mobai actually possessed more than one sword aura.

After the Square Inch Book stopped working, Lou Fengcheng regained his senses. He drank a mouthful of lake water, which relieved the burning sensation in his body, but the terrifying heat that made him feel like his life was burning left him weak and powerless.

"Doctor!"

Seeing Lou Fengcheng appearance and his skin beginning to dry and crack, the Foundation Establishment True Cultivator of the Sky Mending Dao Academy could no longer bear it. Two of them immediately jumped off their own platforms, shouting and waving loudly towards the Imperial Medical Academy as they fell.

"The sparring is not over yet. According to the rules, we cannot interfere."

Although the two people from the Imperial Medical Academy stood at the edge of the platform, they hesitated. They glanced at Chen Mobai and said something that made the Foundation Establishment True Cultivator of the Sky Mending Dao Academy jump up and down, but they were helpless.

"I... admit... defeat..."

Within the Sky Mending Dao Academy, the hierarchy was strict. Lou Fengcheng knew that the two juniors would not dare to admit defeat on his behalf. However, after regaining his senses, he no longer insisted on saving face. With his last bit of strength, he raised his hand and admitted defeat.

Upon hearing this, the two students from the Imperial Medical Academy breathed a sigh of relief and landed beside Lou Fengcheng. After quickly checking the situation, they could only awkwardly turn to Chen Mobai for help.

"Chief Chen, we need you to withdraw this sword's evil power before we can take action to save us."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai nodded slightly, his right hand clenching loosely, and wisps of light, clear yet reddish, emanated from the bloody wound on Lou Fengcheng's shoulder, as if lines of fire were gathering in his palm.

Wisps of crimson blood mist evaporated on the lake's surface as the sword aura returned, eventually coalescing into Sword Pellet that once again became as pure as azure jade, radiating a brilliant azure light.

Then, to everyone's astonishment, Chen Mobai opened his mouth and swallowed the Sword Pellet whole!

[The Magic Combat Victor was actually Third Grade body cultivator!?]

As everyone knows, Sword Fiend is Third Grade power, and it is also the most powerful Sword Cultivator technique in terms of offensive power. To nurture it with one's physical body, one must be at least at the Third Grade Body Tempering Realm.

"No, his physical body isn't that strong. Compared to his Thunder Method and swordsmanship, it's actually a weakness."

Lu Qiulong, who had fought against Chen Mobai, slowly shook his head, giving a definite answer.

"It is a spirit body that is perfectly compatible with the power of the sword aura! It should be a ' Fire Spirit Body '. With this kind of physique, the power of the sword aura will no longer be a burden, but will instead nourish the Fire Spirit Body. And once the Fire Spirit Body becomes strong, it can also Nurturing Sword aura, making it even more powerful."

The one who said this was a Foundation Establishment Seventh Layer who was leading the team from the Five Thunder Academy this time.

As the most skilled in body tempering among the Immortal Sect and renowned for its physical cultivation, the academy has the most profound research on various spiritual bodies.

Upon seeing Chen Mobai swallow the sword demon with a normal complexion, even a slightly rosy one, as if he had greatly replenished his vital energy, after a moment's thought, he came to the most correct conclusion.

"Chief Chen, we don't need to spar tomorrow. I'm no match for you, so I'll concede."

Just as Chen Mobai was about to turn and leave, Tao Mingqing's voice suddenly rang out. This prodigy from the Supreme Origin Academy wore a bitter smile, stood on the platform, and cupped his hands in surrender to him.

"Oh, sparring with me is a rare opportunity, after all, there's no danger to your life. Are you really going to give it up?"

Chen Mobai had not expected that his sword strike would not only defeat the Flawless Heavenly Garment Lou Fengcheng, but also force Tao Mingqing to admit defeat.

While subduing the enemy without fighting is not bad, he intends to use the next few opponents to hone his practical application of the sword aura. Tao Mingqing, who is ranked above Lou Fengcheng, is certainly a worthy opponent.

"I cultivate the Five Elements Technique, which only provides a deep foundation. In terms of actual Spell Duel, I am not even as good as your two previous opponents."

"I originally thought that I could rely on the comprehensiveness of the Five Elements Techniques to hold out for a while longer, which would also bring honor to the Supreme Origin Academy. However, once you unleashed your Sword Aura, I searched through all the techniques I have cultivated and found none that could stop it."

"Since I'm going to lose anyway, why should I go through the pain? I might as well give up now."

Tao Mingqing said with a helpless expression, "If we could fight, or even if we could see a glimmer of hope, I would not be willing to admit defeat in this situation."

The problem is, that's a sword aura! And it clearly has the power to break through armor. Although he borrowed a Third Tier Magic Tool, he wasn't confident that he could withstand the sword aura.

Even if it is blocked, wouldn't it be even worse if the magical Magic Artifact is damaged by the sword's attack?

Even if it's repaired, I'll probably get scolded by the school if I return it.

"In that case, I accept your surrender."

Tao Mingqing had already said that, Chen Mobai couldn't force him to step down, so he could only nod regretfully.

To be honest, he was quite interested in trying out the Five Elements Technique at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Tao Mingqing's ability to be ranked fifth on the Foundation Ranking with this technique demonstrates his profound mastery of it, suggesting that he likely received the true teachings of his idol, Venerable Qingping.

However, he seems to have inherited his temperament; when he realizes he can't win, he completely abandons all pride and admits defeat immediately.

Chen Mobai then turned his gaze toward the Kunpeng Daoist Academy.

After Tao Mingqing conceded defeat, his next opponent was Qi Huanzhi.

Should we fight, or concede defeat?

All eyes followed Chen Mobai's gaze. Qi Huanzhi stood on the platform, calmly pondering for a moment before finally sighing and shaking his head.

Faced with the power of the sword aura, he was confident that he could block it to some extent, but the key was that his Great Light Shield was exactly countered by Chen Mobai's Fire Attribute sword aura in terms of attributes.

To withstand the Third Grade Yi Wood Divine Thunder, it is necessary to use the Great Light Shield.

However, they had been present at every one of Chen Mobai's Spell Duel these past few days and knew that his use of Thunder Method and sword techniques was superb, as if he had been honed through countless trials, and his transitions were smooth and seamless.

If Chen Mobai were to suddenly unleash the Azure Flame Sword Sha while using the Great Light Shield to resist the Yi Wood Divine Thunder, even if he relied on the profound mystery of the Six Imperial Scripture Bright Department to resist it to some extent, the final result would still be a defeat.

Moreover, this Great Light Shield, which he had refined over a long period of time and had developed an emotional attachment to, was very likely to suffer considerable damage under the onslaught of the sword's aura.

After considering all the circumstances, Qi Huanzhi, although eager to fight Chen Mobai and test just how terrifying this Magic Combat Victor was in direct confrontation, ultimately chose to give up.

It's just a friendly spar. If I lose, I lose. At worst, I'll just have to give up my position as the top student in the Dao Academy.

Anyway, it's always the Dao Academy that loses to the Dao Academy, so there's no shame in it.

The reason Qi Huanzhi chose to join forces with Lou Fengcheng and the others was because he still saw a possibility of defeating Chen Mobai. He believed that if they went all out and the Six Imperial Scripture Bright Department Great Light Shield, there was still hope of victory.

But now, with the emergence of the Sword Demon, everything is different.

This is the power of Third Grade Sword Cultivator!

He shared Tao Mingqing's opinion that there was no need to risk breaking the law for Xiahou Weihuan.

"I am no match for them either."

When Qi Huanzhi said this, although most people had already expected it, they were still shocked when they actually heard it.

"However, I still want to fight you once. After this is over, if you have time, how about inviting me for a private Spell Duel in the Lesser Red Heaven?"

Just as Chen Mobai accepted Qi Huanzhi's surrender with a slightly empty expression, the latter suddenly said something else.

Upon hearing this, Bian Jingchun looked at Qi Huanzhi with a pitying gaze.

"Can."

Without any scruples within Lesser Red Heaven, Qi Huanzhi would have even less chance of winning. However, since he had given him enough face, and considering the many favors he had received from Lan Haitan, Chen Mobai nodded in agreement.

"I won't admit defeat, kid. Don't think you're the only one who's mastered the Sword Fiend!"

The moment Chen Mobai's gaze fell upon the Pure Yang Academy, Xiahou Weihuan spoke with a cold smile.

At the same time, a bright orange light flashed in his eyes, and a captivating sharpness and heat spread out, causing the people on the platform to dare not stand and retreat one after another.

Sword Demon!

Xiahou Weihuan truly lived up to his reputation as the second most talented genius in the Pure Yang Academy in the last three hundred years, second only to Nangong Xuanyu, and he actually mastered the Sword Demon Technique.

"Oh, you've mastered the Primordial Yang Sword Sha!"

Chen Mobai was slightly surprised when he saw the familiar orange-red color in Xiahou Weihuan's eyes.

"Your sword aura should be the Azure Sun Sword Sha, right? The Azure Sun Sword Art is a lower-level sword technique evolved from the Primordial Yang Sword Art. I will show you how fragile your sword aura is in front of my Pure Yang orthodox sword aura."

Xiahou Weihuan's confident words caused Chen Mobai to look puzzled.

He couldn't help but look down and touch the Yellow Gourd at his waist.
