“It’s basically confirmed now.”
After Chen Mobai defeated the true disciple of the Artifact Refining Department, two young men standing at the window of the restaurant, who had watched the entire battle, nodded slightly and said.
“He has reached the realm of Rainbow Sword Qi!”
Hearing this, Ding Ying, who sat behind them, looked pale. She was initially considering revenge again in the next event.
“I didn’t expect the rumors to be true. Indeed, only a peerless genius could understand the third realm of sword cultivation before even establishing their foundation.”
The other man, with a broad and robust physique and bearing high spirits, watched Chen Mobai casually stepping off the stage after defeating his opponent, his eyes sparking with a strong fighting spirit.
“Nephew Feng, what are your chances if you cross swords with him?” Zhou Wangshen asked Feng Hongxue who was sitting beside him. Feng
Hongxue, the elder brother of the Sword Training Department, closed his eyes and recalled the sword strike dealt by Chen Mobai just now.
After a long time, he opened his eyes and shook his head.
“I have no chances at all. In the Qi Cultivating Realm, nobody can withstand his sword!”
After saying this, Feng Hongxue faced Ding Ying apologetically.
“Junior Sister Ding, I intended to help you take your revenge, but I can’t beat this man.”
Hearing this, Ding Ying still seemed somewhat unwilling to give up.
“Uncle Zhou, my dispute with him is all because of Sister Yin. With his current momentum, if he truly succeeds in Foundation Establishment, I may not be able to stay in the sect for the rest of my life.
“Don’t worry. I will personally help you resolve this.”
Zhou Wangshen nodded, his eyes fixating on Chen Mobai below while he continued to ask Feng Hongxue.
“His next opponent is Mu Yuan, the treasured disciple of our Sect Leader. Who do you think will win?”
As last year’s number one true disciple, Feng Hongxue answered without any hesitation.
“Regardless of how strong Mu Yuan is, I have confidence in defeating him, but against the realm of Rainbow Sword Qi, I don’t even have the courage to challenge.”
Hearing this, Zhou Wangshen wore a smile on his face.
“Indeed, our Divine Wood Sect is blessed.”
“Since we parted ways from the Five Elements Sect, we not only have Elder Fu’s Core Formation but also a shocking genius like Brother Hong He, and a Heavenly Spiritual Root disciple. Now, we even have a peerless Sword
Cultivation Genius.”
“When I succeed as the Sect Leader in the future, I’ll have plenty of talents under my command. Maybe we can reunify the Five Elements under the name of Divine Wood.”
Hearing Zhou Wangshen’s words, Ding Ying knew that in the future days in Divine Wood Sect, she would probably need to avoid Chen Mobai.
Compared to a peerless genius who grasped Rainbow Sword Qi within the Qi Cultivation Realm, she, as a mere true disciple, may not even be one-tenth as important as Chen Mobai in the eyes of the sect’s upper echelon.
Unless, she succeeded in Foundation Establishment!
It appeared that she couldn’t delay any longer. Originally hesitant about taking the Foundation Building Pill, Ding Ying finally made up her mind after hearing Zhou Wangshen’s words.
[Maybe, this is the opportunity for me to establish my foundation.] Ding Ying thought so, and at this moment, Zhou Wangshen took out a Talisman and handed it to Feng Hongxue.
“This is… the Spirit Leaf Talisman!”
As the elder sister of the Talisman Maker’s Department, seeing this Talisman, Ding Ying couldn’t help but widen her eyes.
This was a precious talisman made from the leaves of the sect’s Rank-3 Golden Yang Wood. Its highest potential rank was Rank- 3, making it one of the most potent defensive talismans in the lineage of the Divine Wood Sect’s Talisman Makers.
“The talisman I created had a defect, it’s only intermediate grade Rank-2. But it should be enough to withstand Chen Guixian’s sword.”
After receiving this talisman, Feng Hongxue, whose eyes were initially half-closed, instantly opened them, his fighting spirit ignited.
“Sword Qi Long Rainbow is a level that only Foundation Establishment sword cultivators can achieve. Even if he’s a once-in-a-lifetime prodigy, at the Qi Cultivating Realm, he can only release one sword strike at most. If I can manage to handle his attack, I might be able to defeat him.”
Upon hearing this, Ding Ying started to get excited. Indeed, Zhou Wangshen, with his proud spirit, wouldn’t stand by and let Chen Mobai oppress him for ten years like Hong He did.
However, Zhou Wangshen’s next words sent chills down her spine. “After you defeat him, raise your hand and forfeit, and let him have the first position among the true disciples.”
Even Feng Hongxue, who held the Spirit Leaf Talisman in his hand, hadn’t expected Zhou Wangshen to say such a thing, and his hand holding the talisman suddenly stiffened.
“Uncle Zhou, is this really proper?”
“What’s improper about it? You can only win against him if you have my talisman. Based on true power, the first position among the true disciples should have been his in the first place, shouldn’t it?”
As Zhou Wangshen said these words, his eyes, like bronze bells, looked at Feng Hongxue who met his gaze stubbornly. But after pondering for a while, he had to admit that he was right.
Indeed, considering their true power, in the Qi Cultivating Realm, Chen Mobai can indeed be said to be unrivaled.
“I understand,” vouched Feng Hongxue.
After hearing this, Zhou Wangshen nodded in satisfaction, then got up and left. When Chen Mobai was stepping off the stage, he felt many eyes watching him, one of them even gave him a very dangerous feeling.
It must be a true cultivator of the Foundation Establishment stage.
But having defeated Ding Ying, he had already become accustomed to these kinds of gazes.
The next round was the battle he was looking forward to the most in this sect tournament.
He walked to the bottom of another arena, and the Divine Wood Sect disciple who recognized him immediately made way for him.
Chen Mobai thanked him and then went to the bottom of the stage.
The two fighters on the stage were Mu Yuan and Yuan Chiye.
Chen Mobai was sure that the person who arranged this battle chart must have confirmed this fight first before arranging for others.
Before he burst into the scene, the magic duel between Mu Yuan and Yuan Chiye was without a doubt, the most anticipated one by the entire Divine Wood Sect.
Last year, Mu Yuan narrowly lost to Yuan Chiye, but this year, after a year of intense cultivating, both his spiritual power and his spells are more refined, almost a perfect copy of E Yun.
It’s still uncertain whether Yuan Chiye can suppress him this year.
“Senior Brother Chen, who do you think will win?”
Zhuo Ming, who had been following Chen Mobai these days, couldn’t help but ask as she watched the duel.
“I hope Mu Yuan wins.”
“Brother Yuan is not bad, I was originally hoping that he would win.”
Hearing Chen Mobai’s words, Zhuo Ming’s face was filled with disappointment. “I just said that I hope Mu Yuan wins, because I don’t want to knock Brother Yuan off the stage, and also hoping to shake off the regret of last year’s defeat.” As Chen Mobai had predicted, the outcome was just as expected.
Mu Yuan and Yuan Chiye contributed the most exciting duel of this sect tournament. Both of them were EQUAL in strength and their understanding and utilization of their Cultivation Techniques and spells were at their peak. Even rank-2 Magic Artifacts were at their command.
It was a pity that Mu Yuan’s sharpness was superior. In the end, Yuan Chiye didn’t want to deplete his elemental energy to perform the Dual-phase Rotation. After the final spell duel, he voluntarily stepped off the stage.
This meant that in the ninth round, Chen Mobai’s opponent would be Mu Yuan. The moment he had been waiting for had finally arrived; just before Foundation Establishment, this sect tournament was the perfect opportunity to address all the regrets in his heart..
