Quick Sword

What did he say?

Just as Wang Baole and the others reached the arena, they heard Zhou Yu's shouts from the arena.

They've already defeated nine Azure Cloud Sect disciples, and they still want to achieve a ten-game winning streak.

This is outrageous!

No wonder the Eldest Senior Brother was so angry!

Wang Baole suddenly turned to look at an Azure Cloud Sect disciple dressed in silver behind him and said seriously, "Junior Brother Xu Qing, you go! Finish this quickly!"

They've already won nine straight games; we have to shut this kid down.

Moreover, it must be done in a clean and efficient manner.

Having Xu Qing handle things resulted in this effect.

"Good!"

Xu Qing instantly flew onto the arena.

Zhou Yu glanced at Xu Qing and said nonchalantly, "Tell me your name, and let me see who you defeated with your ten-game winning streak!"

Xu Qing didn't answer Zhou Yu's question at all. He just looked at Ling Yunzi and waited for Ling Yunzi to announce the start of the arena competition.

"Start!"

Ling Yunzi smiled and announced the start.

No sooner had he finished speaking than Zhou Yu made his move, unleashing a barrage of fireballs that hurtled towards Xu Qing.

The number of fireballs reached as many as thirty.

Previously, when he defeated other Azure Cloud Sect disciples, he only used about fifteen fireballs.

The fact that the number has now doubled demonstrates how much he values Xu Qing.

As soon as Ling Yunzi called for the start, Xu Qing drew a sword to his hand and glided towards Zhou Yu with unhurried steps.

Facing the incoming fireballs, he swung his longsword, thrusting it towards each one.

"That fireball is his Secret Method; it will explode, so don't touch it!"

Below the ring, someone couldn't help but shout.

Because they had witnessed firsthand how the Azure Cloud Sect disciples before them had been defeated.

On the arena, Zhou Yu saw Xu Qing thrust his sword at the fireball and couldn't help but sneer.

The explosive power of thirty fireballs would be enough to defeat Xu Qing.

A ten-game winning streak is a certainty.

Xu Qing acted as if he hadn't heard anyone shouting. His longsword swung out, striking the first fireball. The fireball extinguished instantly, without even a chance to explode. Then, the sword flashed, striking the second fireball, which also extinguished...

Xu Qing strolled leisurely, constantly waving his long sword, extinguishing the fireballs one by one, and getting closer and closer to Zhou Yu.

"How is this possible?" Zhou Yu stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

His fireballs were generated using his Secret Method, and the Laws of Heaven and Earth contained within them were extremely unstable; they would explode immediately upon any contact with them.

Each explosion was equivalent to a single strike from an ordinary Nascent Soul Realm.

That's why the Azure Cloud Sect disciples in front were unable to withstand it.

And now, his fireballs, which had never failed him, were being destroyed one by one by this guy in front of him?

Why is that?

He noticed Xu Qing getting closer and closer, and immediately knew the situation was bad. He hurriedly used his magic again, and another twenty or thirty fireballs flew quickly towards Xu Qing.

Xu Qing slowed his pace slightly, but the speed at which he wielded his longsword increased.

In the same situation, the longsword pierced the fireball, but the fireball was extinguished.

As expected.

In a short while, Xu Qing slashed fifty or sixty fireballs and was already five steps away from Zhou Yu.

"Don't kill anyone!" Ling Yunzi warned.

"Oh!"

Xu Qing muttered something, and the longsword in his hand vanished instantly.

Then, he sheathed his sword and stood still, saying calmly to Zhou Yu, "I thought you were so powerful, but it turns out you're just using a Secret Method to bully your fellow disciples. You've lost, go down!"

Zhou Yu was completely baffled; how had he lost?

Wasn't he about five steps away from Xu Qing?

He hurriedly activated his defensive magic Law Treasure, preparing to block Xu Qing's Swordsmanship.

However, when he used his spiritual power, he discovered that he was in pain in many parts of his body.

Looking down, I saw that my arms, chest, abdomen, and other areas were bleeding.

Only then did he notice seven or eight tiny wounds on his body, each only the thickness of a hair and the length of a finger joint, and barely deep. The pain was considerable, but not enough to render him unable to fight.

"I haven't been defeated yet!" Zhou Yu shouted. "I can fight again!"

He instantly activated his magical Law Treasure, and the defensive Law Treasure was put into use.

Just as he was about to activate his Law Treasure, Xu Qing drew his sword again.

The next moment, Xu Qing's sword tip was pointed at Zhou Yu's throat.

"If I could kill you, you would already be dead." Xu Qing stared at Zhou Yu. "I hope you won't be ungrateful!"

Zhou Yu felt the chill of the sword tip against his throat, and cold sweat instantly beaded on his forehead. Forbidden Land say, "So fast..."

It might only take a fleeting moment for a Nascent Soul Realm to activate a defensive magic Law Treasure.

But in that split second, the opponent's longsword was already pressed against his throat...

How fast must that sword strike be?

At this moment, he also understood why his Explosive Fireball had been extinguished by a single sword strike.

Because the sword was so fast, it had already struck countless times before the fireball even exploded, completely annihilating the fireball's Laws of Heaven and Earth.

Below the arena, everyone was also taken aback by Xu Qing's Quick Sword.

That sword-drawing speed is almost comparable to that of Flying Sword, isn't it?

More importantly, the Flying Sword has undergone constant tempering and nurtured by the sword cultivator. When it moves, it arrives in an instant. A powerful Flying Sword can even travel thousands of miles away in an instant and take a person's head.

The Azure Cloud Sect disciple before us, though not wielding Flying Sword, was striking with such incredible speed...

How did you do that?

While everyone else was puzzled, only one person at the Primordial Spirit Realm was extremely anxious. This Primordial Spirit Realm was Qin Huan from the Sacred Spirit Church.

It was he who sent Xu Qing to the Azure Cloud Sect back then.

Xu Qing has been in the Azure Cloud Sect for over ten years, and he has never been able to find an opportunity to contact Xu Qing.

Although Xu Qing has now shown up, he is on the arena, surrounded by the Dao Integration Realm experts like Ling Yunzi. He doesn't dare to contact Xu Qing at all.

What worried him was that Xu Qing had already mastered such a rare Swordsmanship. He needed to quickly "awaken" Xu Qing's identity and bring him back to the Sacred Spirit Church!

He's currently anxious about how to "wake up" Xu Qing.

On the arena, Xu Qing's voice rang out. "Still not admitting defeat? Do we have to cripple you? We just haven't had time to deal with you, which has allowed you to be arrogant for a few days. Don't be so arrogant next time; you're not qualified to challenge the Azure Cloud Sect."

"I surrender!" Zhou Yu said through gritted teeth.

Then, he jumped off the ring.

Although he was very unwilling to accept it, he had indeed lost.

Moreover, that Quick Sword swordsmanship left him with lingering fear.

Just as Zhou Yu left the arena, another Nascent Soul Realm jumped onto the stage and said in a deep voice, "Liu Yuan of the Sacred Spirit Church, Nascent Soul Realm sword cultivator, has come to learn from the high skills of the Azure Cloud Sect disciple!"
