Taiji Sword Technique Shows Its Might

Only he truly understood the strength of Oscar, and that was only because he had coincidentally stumbled upon Oscar fighting an Evil Soul Master outside of Soto City... It was simply absurd...

Soon, the group arrived outside the town. Perhaps because the five Spirit Rings on Ye Zhiqiu were too eye-catching, their procession drew quite a few spectators from the small town.

As they walked out of the town, Ye Zhiqiu's mind calmed down a bit. Watching the three youths walk out, he said in a deep voice.

"I'll give you one more chance. It's not too late to admit your mistake now."

Dai Mubai gave a wicked smile and said nonchalantly.

"Mistake? What is wrong, and what is right? Whoever has the bigger fist is right. Beat us first before you talk."

At this point, it was impossible for Ye Zhiqiu not to make a move. He let out an angry snort.

"Come at me together. I'll teach you how to behave on behalf of your academy."

Oscar and Ye Zhiqiu stood facing each other. Dai Mubai was a bit worried and wanted to go up to help, but was stopped by Ma Hongjun.

"Trust our senior brother. It's been a long time since I've seen him fight seriously."

Ma Hongjun was uncharacteristically serious, staring at Oscar without blinking.

"You're young, so you go first."

Ye Zhiqiu looked at the white-clad youth with the extraordinary temperament before him, calculating in his mind.

No one with such a temperament and such a young age could be simple!

He had already made up his mind to spar with the other party, but he must not use heavy force. Once the other party admitted defeat, the matter would be over.

Oscar did not refuse. He took a refined iron longsword from his storage bag, then tossed the bag to Ma Hongjun.

He stood slightly straight, lifting his heels and toes in sequence to step half a pace to the left, moving the refined iron longsword slightly behind him.

A massive force was surging within the sword, and in just an instant, a faint light began to glow on the blade.

It was the first move of the Taiji Sword Technique: Wind-Sweeping Dust-Clearing!

In a split second, Oscar charged out, accompanied by a biting cold sword light!

Facing Oscar's attack, black light surged across Ye Zhiqiu's body. He let out a low roar, and his first and second Spirit Rings lit up simultaneously. His body rotated half a circle, revealing the turtle shell on his back, while a stream of black light carrying a bone-chilling cold was released.

As soon as the battle began, Ye Zhiqiu used two of his Spirit Ring skills: one was Mystic Turtle Body Protection, and the other was Mystic Water Ice Seal.

His goal was simple: to finish off the white-clad youth in the shortest time possible, teach him a profound lesson, vent his anger, and demonstrate the strength of Canghui Academy.

Although this little guy looked extraordinary, he was still young, and there was a huge gap in spirit power between them.

Ye Zhiqiu believed that with the Mystic Water Ice Seal released by his level 53 spirit power, he could freeze him instantly.

The sword radiance of Wind-Sweeping Dust-Clearing exploded in front of Ye Zhiqiu. Just as Dai Mubai had said, the opponent's defensive power was extremely strong!

Given the gap in spirit power, Oscar's move had no effect; Ye Zhiqiu's body didn't even budge.

At this moment, he was extremely close to Ye Zhiqiu. He felt a bone-chilling cold rushing toward his face, as if the blood in his entire body was about to freeze.

Although this feeling was uncomfortable, Oscar was prepared. The first move, Wind-Sweeping Dust-Clearing, was only meant to close the distance.

With the gap in their spirit power, breaking through the opponent's defense so quickly was a fantasy. His goal was to strike the opponent's most vulnerable spots: the neck or the lower body, which were the weakest points of a turtle's defense!

He moved his longsword slightly, drawing a mysterious arc in the air, striking the incoming cold current, and using the force of the current to spin his body violently.

This was the second move of the Taiji Sword Technique: Pushing the Boat Along the Current!

While using this move to dodge the cold current, Oscar's longsword had already headed toward the opponent's lower body!

The third move of the Taiji Sword Technique: Scooping the Moon from the Seabed, activated!

Seeing the biting sword light swinging toward his lower body, Ye Zhiqiu felt a chill in his heart and hurriedly channeled his spirit power to move his hands rapidly to protect his lower body!

But at this moment, he saw a smile on the white-clad youth's lips, and a bad premonition suddenly arose.

Oscar tapped his longsword against the opponent's hand, the fifth move of the Taiji Sword Technique: Dragonfly Skimming the Water!

Using the reaction force from tapping the sword against the opponent's hand, Oscar vaulted into the air and launched the fourth move of the Taiji Sword Technique: Parting the Clouds to See the Sun!

A fan-shaped strike, like the light shooting into the sky at sunrise, slashed straight toward Ye Zhiqiu's neck!

The quick-reacting Ye Zhiqiu retracted his neck. A bizarre scene occurred: his entire head actually retracted into his chest cavity, dodging Oscar's terrifying sword strike just in time.

His third Spirit Ring lit up, and a mouthful of water mist sprayed from his mouth toward Oscar, forcing him to retreat through the air.

Although he had temporarily resolved the crisis, the ominous feeling in Ye Zhiqiu's heart grew even stronger.

He discovered that the rhythm of the battle was being led by the white-clad youth, leaving him no chance to counterattack!

Simply put... he was being suppressed and beaten by a youth!

He was a level 53 Spirit King! Even as a defense-type Spirit Master, he shouldn't be suppressed to this extent!

Just how many battles had this youth experienced!

Unfortunately, before he could think further, Oscar's longsword struck again. This strike actually gave Ye Zhiqiu a feeling that he couldn't block it!

Oscar was flying in the air, his sword seemingly merged into one with him, and the vast sword radiance had already obscured the moonlight in the sky.

A strong sense of crisis made the hair on Ye Zhiqiu's body stand on end, and he hurriedly activated his strongest defensive skill!

But it was already too late. Oscar's sword had already slashed into his lower body, and he could feel blood spraying out from there.

Oscar cast a sympathetic glance at him and flicked his sword, creating a shimmering arc.

This move was the sixth form of the Taiji Sword Technique: Immortal Points the Way, which automatically targets an opponent's weak point to launch an attack.

Oscar chose this move because he knew of Ye Zhiqiu's defensive capabilities; even if the strike landed on Ye Zhiqiu's neck, it wouldn't kill him, at most causing him to suffer a major setback.

However, he hadn't expected Ye Zhiqiu to retract his head, which resulted in the man essentially taking the sword strike with his most vulnerable spot.

Zhao Wuji watched happily from the rooftop, recalling how he had once seen Oscar use this very strike to decapitate an Evil Soul Master!

That Evil Soul Master had also been a Spirit King!

Ye Zhiqiu looked down at his crotch, then back at Oscar, his eyes instantly turning bloodshot.

A violent chill surged once more; this time, he had no intention of holding back. Even if he were to be hunted to his death in the future, he was determined to kill this guy right here today!

Oscar sensed the killing intent and moved to retreat rapidly, but it was already too late. In that split second, the hand holding his longsword was frozen stiff by the piercing cold air!

Ye Zhiqiu lunged forward, opened his mouth, and spat a black torrent of freezing energy directly at Oscar.

Third Spirit Ring skill, Mystic Water Surge.

The intense cold made Oscar's entire body shiver, but the fighting spirit in his eyes grew even more fierce. He pointed his longsword forward while his other hand formed a sword finger, sliding from the hilt to the tip of the blade.

Taiji Sword Technique seventh form: Ten Thousand Peaks Bow to the Ancestor!

A massive, mountain-like sword radiance erupted instantly, piercing toward the rapidly charging Ye Zhiqiu!

A bloody hole appeared on Ye Zhiqiu's body, and he stared at Oscar in disbelief.

But only Oscar knew that this was all the Taiji Sword Technique could achieve.

Although this strike was powerful, unlike Immortal Points the Way, it was too easy to miss the mark. This strike had been aimed at Ye Zhiqiu's neck, but unfortunately, it had landed on his body instead.

After the strike, Oscar was spent and was caught by Ma Hongjun, who had rushed over quickly.

"Stop!"

Flames surged in Ma Hongjun's eyes, and the pattern of a Phoenix appeared behind him. At the same time, a flame brand emerged on his forehead, and an aura that did not belong to an eighteen-level Spirit Master caused Ye Zhiqiu to freeze in his tracks.

Just then, a lazy voice suddenly rang out, interrupting the duel, "It's late at night; why aren't you all resting instead of running out here?"
