“Damn, what a crazy fight…”
“Guys, I think I’m getting enlightened…”
“That’s absurd, they’re just using basic martial techniques, but it seems that they’re battle is even better than those flashy ones using advance techniques previously”
“Is this… the realm of true geniuses?”

“To think there’s such a large gap between us and them…”
While the people in the audience discusses among themselves, the remaining participants also watching the fight all have their own thoughts about what’s happening, most of them analyzing the technique the two are using, trying to search for weaknesses they can exploit for when they were pitted against either of these two.
Different from most of the remaining participants, few of them just relish on the match, not even bothering to analyze the techniques the two are using as aside from the fact that they know that this is just surface level skill, they also have absolute confidence in themselves to hold their grounds against those two without studying their battles.
While the minds of everyone watching runs with different thoughts, the two fighting within the arena are enjoying themselves, each exchange against their weapons as if a conversation happening between the two of them.
‘This lady, she clearly knows the true purpose of fights’
‘This man, he clearly knows the true purpose of fights’
The same thoughts running in their minds, the two couldn’t help but smile as if they finally found what they’re searching for their entire life, a fight against equals in terms of understanding the battlefield, a fight against someone who loves the nuances of fights as much as them.
‘This is great, I’ve never felt like this in a fight before’ the two of them thought again at the same time, Zi Yu’er pushing herself even further as she now knows that she’s clearly no match against her opponent, making her appreciate him even more as she notices him holding his base strength back to her level, as this will be even more beneficial for her if they remain in this state longer.
“You have a lot more depth to your character than I expected, Su Tian…” pulling her sash back, Zi Yu’er starts talking as they unanimously stop the exchange, her opponents standing straight, looking at her with appreciation in his eyes.
Weird enough, despite her receiving the same kind of gaze from everyone she encountered for all her life, this is the only time that she felt different, as if he’s looking at an entirely different thing compared to the other gazes pointed at her.
“Thank you” she declared before infusing qi to her sash once again, prepared to resume the match at a moment notice.
“I wonder what you’re thanking me for” Wu Xiaotian merely smiles when he heard her.
“You know what I’m talking about” Zi Yu’er also smiles as she sends in her sash again, this time, the fabric splitting into multiple stands, each one of them coming from different direction to attack the very same target, her opponent.
Multiple purple strands of fabric move towards Wu Xiaotian in all kinds of ways, some moving straight towards him, some moving chaotically, poking here and there as if to lure him in, some swinging around sending conjuration of sharp qi waves towards him, while some just revolving outside the others as if preparing to do something.
Parrying most of the blows, Wu Xiaotian couldn’t help but marvel at the greatness of the technique, bearing extreme similarities to his [Soul Art], each of the attacks as if her asking him to show her more of his. Afraid of not replying to her, he couldn’t help but laugh a bit as he continues parrying the attacks coming towards him, his laugh confusing the pretty lady.
“Zi Yu’er, you’re really just like me in the battlefield!” Wu Xiaotian expressed, the attention of the lady he’s talking to clearly piqued as she smiles towards him, their gazes as if they understand each other’s intent.
“As a reply to you, let me show you something good… Rise!” pointing his free hands, a torrential wave of qi exploded in the surrounding, each of them congregating within specific spots, forming multiple weapons through the help of his soul power.
“This…”
“Great heavens… How is that even possible…”
“So he can do more than just simple suppression with his soul power…”
“Fuck!! Why is such monster in our generation!?”
“Hahaha, we won’t have any chance to catch up with him it seems…”
Looking at the sight in front of them, all of the people watching, spectators and participants alike, couldn’t help but despair at the sight.
The massive numbers of threads Zi Yu’er sent in stopping in place, being pushed back by multiple weapons created purely out of Wu Xiaotian’s soul power combined with ambient qi, each one of them powerful enough to make those who were eliminated earlier on feel threatened, as it one of those weapons can take their lives with one slash.
Moving the weapons with absurd precision, Wu Xiaotian continues pushing Zi Yu’er back, the situation of her suppressing him quickly turning around, as she now defends herself with her sash while attacks from Wu Xiaotian’s [Soul Art] continuously assaults her.
‘I see, I see, so it’s like this~~’ contrary to the looks of pity the audience is having, Zi Yu’er is clearly having fun as she continues struggling to fend off all the attacks coming to get her, her defense getting more and more steady as time goes by, something that only Wu Xiaotian recognizes as he can feel her getting more and more confident through every exchange between their weapons.
As the exchange continues, Zi Yu’er’s smile changes from an excited one to one that seems to understand something. After this happens, she began slipping in some attacks within her defenses as well, those attack, despite being easily blocked by Wu Xiaotian, is still something that completely awed the entire crowd as it has been a while since she was suppressed by her opponent.
Waving her hand, the sash condenses into a circular ball surrounding her, before it turns into multiple spikes that tries to pierce each one of the soul weapons hanging in the air, the fast and dangerous attacks making the entire crowd nervous as they try to predict which would come out still intact from the exchange.
Sound of silence spread from the arena as the sharp edges of the soul weapons cuts through them, surprising not only Zi Yu’er, but also the entire audience as they just felt the momentum coming from her attack, something that they thought is more than enough to pierce through the corporeal weapons just steadily hanging in the air.
“I lost~~ I surrender~~” Turning the sash back into its most basic form, Zi Yu’er just smiled towards Wu Xiaotian while waving her hand, the immortal-like young man responding by dispersing his technique, the numerous floating weapons disappearing into thin air while his opponents start approaching him, moving until she’s just a few inches away from him.
“In the end, you never released a strength higher than Perfection state Core Formation huh…” Zi Yu’er disappointedly sighs after she whispers the words in his ears, their body sticking to each other causing him to feel great from her softness while being threatened by the envious gaze of the crowd.
“I can show it to you some other times” he whispered towards her as well before blowing softly on her ears, surprising her so much that she jumps away from him.
“Fine then, I want you to show me your strength in another kind of battle in the future~~~” the alluring lady replied, sending him a wink as their stone platforms separated from each other.
