Individual Competition Top 32 (Part 1)

"North Wind Freezing Night!"

"The Azure Sea Tilting the Heavens!"

As soon as the first layer of Artistic Conception shattered, two other layers of Artistic Conception immediately filled the void.

Two illusory environments overlap.

Sometimes the snow falls like a waterfall, and the cold wind is like a knife, scraping away bone and tendons without form or shape.

Like the Yama, the devil who takes lives.

At times, the vast blue sea appears to be about to collapse, like a lone boat sailing on the waves.

It felt as if they were about to be upside down.

The former emphasizes form, while the latter emphasizes momentum.

Of all things that have no form, none surpasses the wind.

It is said that nothing is more unpredictable than water.

"We didn't go the wrong way." Ye Qingcang rarely raised his two fleshy palms, their color even, fair and slender, one above the other, slowly bringing them together. In that instant, it seemed as if heaven and earth had merged back together, chaos had reopened, and the Sun Moon Empire, and stars had restarted, crushing all the strange phenomena to dust, as if everything that had just happened never existed. However, at this moment, the sword and saber held flat between the two palms shattered this illusion, proving to everyone inside and outside the arena that something had just happened. "Unfortunately, the power was still a bit lacking!"

In that very instant!

Suddenly, a great Bright Light shone brightly between heaven and earth!

It was as if someone had thrown a flashbang right in front of us!

The vast majority of the audience panicked, but a small number remained calm. Or rather, they were not panicked, but not truly calm. They were just as surprised as the audience inside and outside the venue. In fact, it was precisely because they understood the situation that they were even more surprised.

"Archers are truly a bunch of cunning old foxes!"

Wiping away the tears that had welled up in his eyes, Gongyang Mo muttered to himself.

Just because others haven't seen this scene doesn't mean that these Shrek students haven't. In fact, although they were caught off guard by the commotion on the stage, they weren't confused.

This scene is strikingly similar to the one when the Spirit Hall's Guang Ling Douluo visited Shrek three months ago; they are almost identical.

No notification was given.

There was no warning.

And just like that, an arrow shot straight at us.

It's like a giant flashbang.

It makes it impossible for you to see the arrow itself.

It would be even more impossible to determine the landing points sequentially.

"To be honest..." Xi Xi, enduring the stinging in her eyes, said with a wry smile, "If this were during a match or battle, and this person suddenly shot me with an arrow, like what's happening now... I really can't guarantee that I wouldn't be eliminated in one hit."

no way.

Agility Attack System Soul Master are inherently fragile.

Its defense and Goddess of Life are similar to most Support Type Soul Master of the same Soul Power Level. In battle, if it encounters a similar Agility Attack System Soul Master, it may even lead to mutual killing. Therefore, it is not impossible for its health bar to be emptied by an arrow.

"The only saving grace is... this arrow doesn't have a lock-on effect, meaning it can be dodged... although in this situation, the arrow probably flies faster than we can dodge it..." Ma Xiaotao was also in tears, her eyes red-rimmed, her tone a mixture of relief and regret. "If we could add the same kind of Artistic Conception Artistic Conception as the previous three, like our grandmaster's self-created Soul Skill 'World Domination,' then it would be truly invincible. The only thing it might lack is the Soul Power Level... but that can't be rushed; there's no other way but through arduous training."

only...

Does this arrow truly lack any Artistic Conception?

"Focus on one point, conceal it without leaking out."

"It doesn't affect anyone else."

"It only affects the target itself."

"Simple and unadorned, yet profoundly skillful without being overly elaborate."

"I never imagined that you would truly grasp some of the essence of the meaning behind shooting down the sun."

In Ye Qingcang's eyes, the scene was actually very simple.

A golden-red arrow made of Soul Power.

There are no special techniques involved.

It flew straight towards my forehead.

But it is precisely this kind of unskilled arrow that is the most ferocious!

Like a flat-bottomed spear.

It looks like an ordinary gun.

In reality, it is a shot that, after embracing all changes, strikes with the least effort, the most powerful force, and the most direct aim at the core, a return to simplicity.

There was no stopping it.

There is no way to stop it.

There is no way to avoid it.

Retreat or die.

However, while arrows and spears are similar in principle, they encompass different aspects: spears involve variation, while arrows involve precision.

Because there is still room to maneuver after the spear has been thrust out.

But once an arrow is released, it truly flies.

In this respect, this arrow might share some common ground with Little Li's Flying Dagger.

Once these impulses are triggered, there is no turning back.

However, Li's Flying Dagger is Hidden Weapon, relatively small and exquisite, making it difficult to prevent. This arrow, on the other hand, abandons the advantage of Li's Flying Dagger being difficult to prevent. Its main purpose is to make you see it but you can't dodge it, piercing and shattering the person with full power.

It's a mixed bag, with both advantages and disadvantages.

Li Xunhuan's flying daggers cannot penetrate the skin of someone with thick flesh.

But the Sun-Piercing Arrow can.

Li Xunhuan's flying daggers are easy to throw and can be used at will.

The Sun-Piercing Arrow is much more troublesome; you often have to draw the bow before you can shoot it.

But just how powerful is this arrow?

It can be described in one sentence...

This arrow broke through Ye Qingcang's Three Feet Forbidden Zone!

In fact, the purpose of this arrow was very clear: to force Ye Qingcang to let go, so that the two swordsmen who were trapped between Ye Qingcang's two hands, namely the other two students on the Heaven Ranking, could withdraw their Martial Soul and leave, thus allowing for further developments.

As for whether it can injure Ye Qingcang?

What are you thinking about?

Let alone Ye Qingcang himself.

Not to mention the surrounding players and audience.

Even the archer who fired the arrow didn't believe he could hurt Ye Qingcang, because he was quite certain that his arrow wouldn't be able to harm Limit Douluo, at most it could only restrict Soul Saint, and at most kill Soul Saint. It wouldn't be too late to talk about whether he could hurt Ye Qingcang at this moment after his arrow could kill a Title Douluo.

Therefore, the four characteristics of an archer are perfectly demonstrated.

Intimidation and cover.

Sniping and feint attacks.

Sometimes, the arrow is on the bowstring, but not releasing it can actually yield greater profits.

Unfortunately, he was facing Ye Qingcang!

Qi should be directed to the dantian.

Returning to normal.

Gold is applied to the lungs.

He opened his mouth slightly and spat out a sword of energy!

Although there was no scene of cold light stretching for thousands of miles, there was thunder accompanying it!

This is a sound that can only be produced when the strength of the five internal organs reaches a certain standard; this is what is meant by the so-called "tiger and leopard thunder sound".

And under this sword of qi.

The golden-red Soul Power arrows were easily destroyed.

It was like an egg hitting a rock.

It shattered instantly upon impact.

As the arrow shattered, the flashbang-like effect finally faded. The shattered golden-red Soul Power spots, propelled by inertia, hurtled towards Ye Qingcang. However, the Three Feet Forbidden Zone, which had been unable to resist the arrows before, was not incapable of resisting the fragments of these arrows now. Therefore, these light spots were deflected and scattered in all directions before gradually disappearing into the air.

But for most of the audience at the scene...

They didn't see any sword energy.

They thought Ye Qingcang was tough enough to withstand the arrow, but it didn't even break his skin. Instead, he shattered the arrow, which they couldn't see clearly but only fragments of. They cheered.

Although Ye Qingcang could withstand it head-on.

The results were all the same.

It really won't even break the skin.

But that approach was too rude.

Ye Qingcang didn't like it.

Therefore, it's more convenient to solve this using a qi sword.

As for the Qi Sword itself, after shattering the Soul Power Arrow, it continued to fly for a while before disintegrating. Without the support of Soul Power and without subsequent power, any flying object is ultimately just a piece of duckweed on the water, helpless and alone. Once it exhausts its own kinetic energy, falling and disintegrating is an inevitable phenomenon. This has nothing to do with whether it is a supernatural world or not; it is simply a matter of physics.

Naturally, these spectators could no longer see the dissipated sword energy.

He thought himself to be as strong as Ye Qingcang Copper Head Iron Arms.

It shattered the Soul Power arrow.

However, it doesn't matter what it is anymore.

The arrow failed to cause any harm or effect to Ye Qingcang, and the archer who fired it also failed to achieve his tactical objective. Furthermore, Ye Qingcang firmly in his hands, forcing the wielders of these weapons to retreat and abandon their Martial Soul. These are the key points.

"Decisive enough."

Ye Qingcang looked at the knife and sword in his hands.

The concept of Martial Soul is closely related to the Soul Master himself.

Beast Spirit is alright.

There is no possibility of it being broken.

Unless the Soul Master shatters it himself.

To shatter Martial Soul spirit of a Soul Master in a beast Martial Soul Possession state, one must first force the Martial Soul out of their body. In other words, the Martial Soul Possession state. However, Soul Master with Beast Spirit can remain in Martial Soul Possession for a long time if they wish. Martial Soul and Martial Soul Possession do not require much Soul Power. Even a child who has just awakened their Martial Soul and has level one Soul Power can repeatedly summon their Martial Soul hundreds of times before becoming tired. Therefore, while there are cases of Soul Master with Beast Spirit taking lives, there is no record of anyone being able to pull out and shatter the Martial Soul of Beast Spirit Soul Master in a normal battle.

Compared to Beast Spirit.

There are many more examples of Weapon Spirit shattering.

However, there are both advantages and disadvantages.

The power of Weapon Spirit is generally online.

Moreover, if you play well, you really can play without taking any damage.

Conversely, Beast Spirit do not work.

Any harm suffered will be proportionally returned to oneself.

However, there are also many drawbacks.

If Weapon Spirit is broken, it is absolutely God of Destruction for Soul Master. At best, it will cause the user to vomit blood; at worst, it will cause the user to die on the spot. Fortunately, Weapon Spirit will automatically evolve as the Soul Master's Soul Power increases. Otherwise, no one would dare to use them in the later stages.

And like the knife and sword in Ye Qingcang's hand.

It is a product of evolution.

It's just that it's the kind of evolution that allows you to overtake others by taking a shortcut.

Normally, the evolution of Weapon Spirit usually occurs once between levels 49 and 50, determining whether Soul Master can absorb Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring. Additionally, there's another leap between levels 69 and 70, determining the strength of the Soul Master's Martial Soul Avatar. After that, it depends on the level 89 to Level 90 hurdle. Passing this hurdle leads to becoming a Title Douluo, and the Martial Soul will inevitably evolve accordingly. Failing to pass it results in becoming Soul Douluo, a Soul Douluo for life. After becoming a Title Douluo, the Weapon Spirit undergoes a qualitative change at level 95. For example, the Guang Ling Douluo's Martial Soul, the Guang Ling Longbow, obtained its Ultimate Light Ultimate Attribute during its transformation at level 95. After level 95, each step is a new level. Ultimate Ice was the second evolution that the Guang Ling Douluo completed at level 96. This is experience summarized and compiled by the Spirit Hall. Ye Qingcang has to thank Qian Renxue for knowing this; lending a book is really just a small matter.

And this knife and this sword.

This is the new system that Ye Qingcang came up with.

It centers on Stellar Martial Arts.

Because the Stellar Martial Arts focuses on discovering one's own potential and enhancing that potential by absorbing nutritious substances from the outside world, such as dragon blood, the Martial Soul, which influences the body, will also be influenced by the body in turn. Soul Master can use professional formulas to evolve their Martial Soul in a targeted manner, or they can forgo professional training and evolve their Martial Soul randomly based on their intuition.

Like North Wind Saber.

Who would have thought that six years ago, this was just an ordinary wood-chopping knife?

So, what does its owner need to give up to evolve to this point?

It's very simple.

A ten-ton block of ancient ice.

Add a piece of meteorite iron from the cold pool weighing a thousand pounds.

And a three-cubic-meter portion of the Nine Heavens Gale.

Its owner ate and digested all of these, or more accurately, refined them in the Qi and Blood Furnace. Although one can chew on steel and extract corresponding energy from it once the Qi and Blood Chapter is complete, chewing on it doesn't mean it tastes good, nor does chewing on iron guarantee digestion. Therefore, it is still recommended to refine them in the Qi and Blood Furnace, extract all the energy from these things, integrate it into the furnace itself, and then retract the furnace, which is made of Qi and Blood. The energy within will then be absorbed into the body.

The only ones that can truly digest steel by eating it.

It can only be done when the stages of the five internal organs and six bowels are completed.

The same principle applies to this wave -Wave Cutting Cliff Severing Sword.

Six drops of Thousand Water Essence.

A ton of century-old rocks from the cliffside reef.

In addition, there is Sword Intent related to water or earth.

This will enable the Martial Soul to undergo a transformation.

Don't ask Ye Qingcang why he knows so much, because he created all of these things himself, except for the last Sword Intent. That thing needs to be comprehended by oneself. Actually, it's not impossible to infuse it, but then again, if even something like Sword Intent needs to be infused, then this person is not worth cultivating.

One must understand one's own mind and nature before attaining enlightenment.

Blue Tyrant Academy has the Enlightenment Pavilion.

If you get stuck.

It must be that they are stuck on the point of understanding their own mind and nature.

Is it worthwhile to train a Soul Master who can't even understand the heart?

They can be free-range.

How far he can go depends on him.

Anyway, Ye Qingcang will definitely not make an exception here.

For example, buying on credit or something like that.

Therefore, it must be said that these two students on the Heaven Ranking are quite courageous. They would rather risk having their Martial Soul crushed by Ye Qingcang than give Ye Qingcang the chance to kill them instantly.

Unfortunately, Ye Qingcang wanted to kill him instantly.

On this stage, no one can stop him.

"They said they didn't want it to turn into a teaching bureau."

"Unexpectedly, it still turned into a teaching session."

"Never mind."

"Let me show you the road ahead!"

Ye Qingcang sighed, then slowly raised his sword. It was as if an endless storm of wind and Artistic Conception descended, destroying people's bodies and souls. Flying sand and stones were nothing to him. The power to tear apart space was just a small test. With a single swing, the wind and the world changed. Under the overwhelming force, he blasted the student from the Heaven Ranking off the stage and slammed him heavily to the ground.

Left profile view.

Stick it to the ear.

The North Wind Saber trembled slightly.

The sound of the knife ringing out was crisp and clear.

This seems to be the correct way to use it.
