In the plaza.
Sword light and ruler shadows overlapped and flashed incessantly. In mere moments, Xiao Yan and Nalan Yanran had exchanged over a hundred blows.
Their speed was dizzying, and the ordinary disciples of the Misty Cloud Sect could barely follow their movements anymore.
Beneath their feet, one scar after another rapidly appeared across the plaza floor under the blasts of their dou qi and the scraping clashes of their weapons.
The battle was exceptionally fierce!
The longer they fought, the more alarmed Nalan Yanran became.
With every clash of their weapons, the terrifying force carried by that enormous ruler bent her longsword into a dangerous arc.
She had originally intended not to reveal her cultivation as a Two-Star Great Dou Master right away.
But the instant Xiao Yan charged at her, Nalan Yanran sensed his powerful aura. The fluctuations of dou qi erupting from him had already reached the level of a Da Dou Shi.
Thus, with the very first move, Nalan Yanran unleashed the cultivation she had concealed.
That was also why Yun Leng and the other Elders had frowned the moment the battle began.
They had never expected Xiao Yan to force Nalan Yanran to reveal her full strength in their very first exchange.
And even then, Xiao Yan could still fight her on equal footing!
This was completely outside their expectations!
As a result, Yun Leng and the others, who had been relaxed and certain of victory, could not help growing grave.
Nalan Yanran was their young Sect Master. If she lost in front of so many powerful figures from Jia Ma, where would the Misty Cloud Sect hide its face?
Yun Leng was already regretting inviting so many outsiders to witness this.
Of course, more than regret, Yun Ling felt hatred over Xiao Yan
