After the match with Xiao Tian, the others were much more cautious.
There was a reason why they had brought out this Peak Qi Gathering Realm disciple, he was clearly a monster.
Since that was the case, they shouldn’t try to pick on the ones that seemed below average.
After all, if there was another monster like Xiao Tian…they really couldn’t afford to fight him.
So the challengers started looking at the other disciples of the Love Sect who were waiting.
Specifically, they were looking at the disciples that were right in the middle of the pack.
They didn’t dare look at the top disciples who had already reached the peak of the Foundation Realm. Even if they weren’t powerful, they were still far stronger than them since most of them had either just reached the Foundation Realm or in the Intermediate Foundation Realm.
They wouldn’t be able to fight even the trashiest Peak Foundation Realm Cultivators.
So they were looking at those that had just reached the Foundation Realm just like them.
They hoped that one of them would be normal and would allow them to show off a bit.
After a while, another person jumped onto the stage and said, “I wish to spar with this friend from the Love Sect.”
This person who jumped onto the stage was a handsome young man in a completely white robe with a sword on his back. This young man was Wang Jian from the Flowing Water Sword Sect.
The one that he had challenged was one of the disciples from the Hidden Dragon Sect named Yu Guo.
This Yu Guo wasn’t a powerful disciple, he was considered one of the weakest Foundation Realm Cultivators from the Love Sect who had just reached the Foundation Realm.
And that was why Wang Jian chose to fight him.
He wanted to use his superior cultivation to show off since he was in the Intermediate Foundation Realm.
Yu Guo was surprised that he was challenged like this, but he didn’t back down from the challenge.
With a single jump, he landed on the stage across from Wang Jian
After bowing to Senior Brother Ying, he said, “Disciple Yu Guo accepts this cultivator friend’s challenge.”
When Wang Jian heard this, he was filled with joy even though he kept a calm look on his face.
He cupped his hands and said, “This friend, since you are in a lower realm, I will restrain my cultivation to match your level.”
That was the least that he could do since he was the one with the higher level of cultivation.
And Wang Jian was confident that he would win even if he suppressed his cultivation since he was a sword cultivator.
Sword cultivators were considered superior to other cultivators for a reason, so he didn’t fear that he would lose.
But for the spectators, they couldn’t help feeling that this Wang Jian was just digging his own grave…
They had seen what had happened to Song Gang before, so they knew that they shouldn’t underestimate the Love Sect.
However, to everyone’s surprise, Yu Guo said, “This cultivator friend, there’s no need for that. This is a learning spar, so we should fight with all our strength to learn as much as we can from each other.”
Wang Jian was surprised to hear this, but he knew that he shouldn’t let his guard down when facing these people from the Love Sect…
So since this Yu Guo offered, he had no reason to reject this offer.
Wang Jian cupped his hands and said, “Since this cultivator friend says so, then let’s fight at our full strength.”
There were some that felt that this Wang Jian was shameless for accepting so quickly, but they understood why he was acting this way.
He was carrying the prestige of his sect, so it wasn’t as if he could be careless.
Even if the other side seemed weaker, he didn’t dare let his guard down.
After he pulled out his sword, Yu Guo slowly raised his hands and took a battle stance. He didn’t take out a weapon, so it seemed that he fought with his body instead.
Senior Brother Ying saw that both sides were ready, so he said, “Let the spar begin.”
As soon as Senior Brother Ying gave the signal, Wang Jian released his sword energy.
He didn’t hesitate at all to send out hundreds of beams of sword energy at Yu Guo who was standing there in front of him.
Yu Guo didn’t flinch when he saw these beams of sword energy come at him.
Instead, he just calmly raised his fists and faced these beams of sword energy.
Wang Jian couldn’t help being surprised, but he made sure to focus his mind.
This was a friendly spar, so he made sure that he would be able to pull his sword back at any moment that it seemed like he would hurt Yu Guo.
He didn’t want to mess with the Love Sect with all of their crazy disciples, so he would make sure that he did things by the book.
But he was surprised to find…that Yu Guo didn’t struggle at all with his beams of sword energy.
Yu Guo just calmly punched out at the beams of sword energy coming at him and smashed all the ones coming at him. 𝒩𝒐𝗏𝐞𝐿xt.𝗇𝓔t
With one punch for each beam of sword energy, they shattered into fragments before disappearing without a trace.
However, there were just too many beams of sword energy in the end that Yu Guo wasn’t able to keep up with them. Plus, they were coming at different angles, so it was just a matter of time before they were hit by these beams of sword energy.
But when he was hit with them…
The beams of sword energy just shattered against Yu Guo’s body like they had when he punched through them.
Wang Jian’s chin almost dropped down to the ground when he saw this.
Yu Guo also looked at his own body before saying, “I guess I was thinking too much. I didn’t need to do all of that in the first place.”
Wang Jian looked at Yu Guo with a very strange look when he heard this.
“Brother please! I’m trying my best here, can you at least act like it hurts?”
Since he figured out that Wang Jian wasn’t able to do anything to him with his sword energy, Yu Guo no longer acted cautious and moved forward.
Wang Jian in response couldn’t help taking a step back, but he still stopped himself in the end since that wasn’t what a sword cultivator should do.
The only thing that a sword cultivator had was their attack power, so he had to keep attacking.
If these scattered sword energies didn’t work, then he would only use a single attack.
Focusing his power on his sword, Wang Jian didn’t hesitate to release a single sword energy slash.
This one was completely different from the smaller ones that had been released before.
One could feel the sharpness coming from this sword energy. This was a sword energy that seemed like it could even cut apart the air itself with how sharp it was.
Yu Guo slightly knitted his brows when he saw this sword energy coming at him, but he didn’t panic as he calmly gathered his spiritual energy in his hands.
Then with a single punch…he shattered that sword energy coming at him.
Wang Jian just revealed a bitter smile since he had already expected this result, but it really did hurt him seeing it happen.
Wang Jian tried to fight back by dodging out of the way and sending out sword energy slashes at Yu Guo, but that didn’t work.
At first he was faster than Yu Guo, but Yu Guo slowly gained speed until he caught up to Wang Jian.
Wang Jian couldn’t keep running, so he had no choice but to stand firm.
But what would he use against Yu Guo?
There was nothing that he could use since everything that he had used before had already been blocked by Yu Guo.
It seemed that it was hopeless…
So all he could do was slash out with all his energy at Yu Guo, hoping that he would be able to do something.
But Yu Guo just simply punched out at Wang Jian, slamming his fist into Wang Jian’s sword.
When his fist hit the sword, there was a cracking sound before Wang Jian’s sword shattered to pieces and his fist slammed into Wang Jian’s chest.
Wang Jian was like a kite that had its strings cut as he suddenly collapsed under this fist.
He flew out from the arena like a rocket, being sent flying right into the ground outside of the arena.
There was only silence that hung in the air after Wang Jian created a crater outside of the arena.
Everyone just stared at Yu Guo in shock.
It seemed that it wasn’t just the special disciples of the Love Sect that were monsters, it seemed that even the normal disciples of the Love Sect were just as monstrous.
There was a whole minor realm between Yu Guo and Wang Jian, but he had been able to block all of Wang Jian’s attacks like it was nothing. Not to mention, Wang Jian was a sword cultivator which meant that his attacks were much stronger than normal attacks in the same realm.
Yet Yu Guo was able to block all of these attacks with his body alone…
Just how terrifying was his physique that he could do this?
