The Ghost Sword Successor is too famous in Jiangyun Kingdom.
The Saintess was once the Ghost Sword Successor.
To become the Ghost Sword Successor, one must almost always be an exceptional genius with outstanding talent and comprehension.
Today, if he, Zhao Yi, can defeat the Ghost Sword Successor, he will surely become famous!
Chu Feiyang chuckled and shook his head, staring at Zhao Yi as he said, "You underestimate the Ghost Sword Successor too much!"
"You've opened seven Spiritual Apertures. If you truly had the strength, you would have defeated me long ago!"
Zhao Yi sneered.
"I only used thirty percent of my strength!"
Chu Feiyang shook his head.
"What did you say?"
Zhao Yi's expression changed.
Whoosh!
Chu Feiyang's aura suddenly surged, and his speed doubled from before. He instantly appeared before Zhao Yi and unleashed over a dozen punches with his perfected Blazing Fire Fist.
Bang bang bang bang!
Fiery fists rained down on Zhao Yi.
Zhao Yi's face turned grim. He quickly employed a Human Tier High-grade defensive Martial Skill, the Wolf Fang Fist. However, after blocking a few punches, he could no longer withstand the assault and was sent flying backward, crashing to the edge of the crowd before losing consciousness.
All the disciples present were shocked by this scene, especially those who knew Zhao Yi's strength and history. They were even more astonished.
"It's not that Zhao Yi is too weak, it's that Chu Feiyang is too strong!"
"Chu Feiyang is the Ghost Sword Successor; his talent and comprehension must be excellent!"
"We disciples in the introductory and outer sects probably won't have an easy time from now on!"
These disciples often undertook missions together, and if they encountered Chu Feiyang, their only option would be to flee.
Chu Feiyang would become a genius among the younger generation.
"Third match, Chu Feiyang, introductory disciple of the Imperial Dao Sect, wins!"
The presiding elder was also startled by Chu Feiyang's strength. He hadn't expected the opponent to have been hiding his power from the start, and moreover, he was the Ghost Sword Successor who hadn't even used his strongest Sword Technique.
Meanwhile, the Grand Elder of the Qingyun Sect and his fellow elders were secretly amazed. The strength Chu Feiyang had displayed so far was even greater than Qin Yu's from last year.
"Hahaha!"
The Grand Elder forced a smile and clapped his hands repeatedly. "As expected of the Ghost Sword Successor. With the Ghost Sword Successor, the Imperial Dao Sect will likely ascend to become a first-rate sect in the future!"
Xie Kuang replied politely, "If the Qingyun Sect's disciple with the Scrap Bloodline can truly be cultivated into a second Tou She Ancient God, then it won't just become a first-rate sect; it might even reach the level of the Xuanhuang Continent's most powerful sects!"
"The sparring and exchange have concluded for now. Elder Xie, please stay a few more days at my Qingyun Sect, allowing me to fulfill my duties as a host!"
The Grand Elder said.
"Hahaha, excellent!"
Xie Kuang also burst into laughter.
However, Nalan Xin suddenly spoke up, "Esteemed Elders, the sparring and exchange haven't concluded yet, have they? There's still a second round of sparring!"
"Lu Ren is clearly no match for either of you. Continuing the sparring is pointless. The purpose of these exchanges is to showcase strength, and all six of you have already done so!"
The Grand Elder hadn't expected Nalan Xin to want a second round of sparring.
Although Lu Ren's strength was not weak, Nalan Xin's Serpent Steps were too formidable. Lu Ren was no match for her, let alone Chu Feiyang.
However, Xie Kuang chuckled and said, "Elder Meng, sparring matches are meant to determine a victor. Elder Meng, don't you trust your own disciple? Why not let him try?"
As the Grand Elder pondered, Lu Ren walked over and smiled, "Since you wish to spar, let's continue then!"
Seeing that Lu Ren had also agreed, the Grand Elder nodded. "In that case, you shall both rest for the time it takes a cup of tea to steep to recover your strength!"
With that, he sat down, picked up his teacup, and began to drink.
Lu Ren, meanwhile, went to rest beside Yun Qingyao.
"Lu Ren, do you have confidence in defeating Nalan Xin?"
Yun Qingyao couldn't help but ask tentatively. Ever since Lu Ren had revealed his strength, she had found herself unable to fully understand her disciple.
Lu Ren nodded. "Actually, I've opened seven Spiritual Apertures. Defeating her isn't a difficult task. I wasn't using my full strength in my previous fight with Li Jing either!"
For this sparring exchange tournament, his goal was to defeat all three from the Imperial Dao Sect, so he naturally had to hold back some of his abilities.
"What did you say?"
Yun Qingyao pointed at Lu Ren and said with a hint of grievance, "When this exchange ends, if you don't tell me the whole story, just you wait and see how I'll deal with you!"
The time it took for a cup of tea to steep passed quickly.
Without needing the presiding elder's announcement, Lu Ren and Nalan Xin stepped onto the stage from opposite directions, facing each other ten meters apart.
"Lu Ren, I never expected that someone with a Scrap Bloodline like you could cultivate both the Fierce Tiger Fist and the Spirit Cat Steps to Perfection. You injured Li Jing, and I'm here to settle that score!"
Nalan Xin said coldly.
Lu Ren stated, "You injured Senior Sister Yang Rong, so I should be the one settling the score!"
"I'm afraid you don't have the ability!"
Nalan Xin let out a soft shout, her figure flashing forward with lightning speed, and she fiercely slammed a palm towards Lu Ren.
After the palm strike, an astonishing palm wind erupted.
"Blazing Fire Fist!"
Lu Ren didn't dodge. He threw out a punch, choosing to meet her head-on.
Boom!
Fist and palm collided, and both of them were forced back three steps simultaneously.
Of course, Lu Ren hadn't used his full strength. He wanted to get a feel for Serpent Steps. If he had used his full power, he could have defeated Nalan Xin with that single punch.
After stabilizing herself, Nalan Xin once again employed Serpent Steps. Her movements were like a nimble snake, slithering around Lu Ren and constantly attacking his vital points.
Not only was her body flexible, but her arms were also incredibly supple. Her palms pressed down, like a snake's head, lunging to bite Lu Ren!
"Eighteen Snake Spirit Bites!"
Pfft pfft pfft pfft!
The sharp palm techniques were like spirit snakes tearing and biting in the air, even emitting a sissling sound, ferociously aggressive.
"A Human Tier High-grade Martial Skill, Eighteen Snake Spirit Bites. She's actually mastered twelve bites! Combined with her Serpent Steps, this palm technique makes her almost invincible in close combat!"
"With Lu Ren relying on Blazing Fire Fist and Spirit Cat Steps, I fear he's going to lose!"
A hint of worry appeared on the faces of many elders.
"Lu Ren..."
Seeing this, Yun Qingyao's heart was also filled with concern. It wasn't that she feared Lu Ren would lose, but that he might get injured. Even with Lu Ren having opened seven Spiritual Apertures, he still didn't have a significant advantage against an opponent like this.
"Eight Trigram Palm!"
Lu Ren moved his hands, forming a circle like a millstone. He deflected and attacked simultaneously, blocking all the snake-like palm strikes.
"Palm like Eight Trigrams, Unmoving Underworld King. This means he has cultivated Eight Trigram Palm to Perfection!"
The Grand Elder gasped, drawing in a sharp breath. This meant Lu Ren had cultivated three Human Tier Low-grade Martial Skills to Perfection. It was simply unbelievable.
"In two months, cultivating three martial skills to Perfection, what kind of talent is this?"
The Grand Elder exclaimed in admiration.
"He didn't cultivate for two months at all. He only cultivated for one month and returned these three martial skills to me!"
Elder Qiu from the Martial Arts Pavilion was deeply shocked.
It was then that he recalled Lu Ren's words. Lu Ren had said he had already mastered them. He hadn't taken it seriously before, but now, thinking back, Lu Ren hadn't just mastered them; he had likely cultivated all three to Perfection.
"To cultivate three Human Tier Low-grade Martial Skills to Perfection in just one month, the Bloodline Testing Stone Tablet must be wrong. Lu Ren isn't a Scrap Bloodline at all; he's very likely a Divine Bloodline!"
"A Divine Bloodline! Our Qingyun Sect is destined for prosperity!"
The elders of the Qingyun Sect in the VIP Seating roared with excitement.
