“You say, how many moves can he last?” Xue Ren asked.
Xiao Wenjie’s martial arts had been tutored by his father, and as soon as he made his move, his momentum was terrifying, fully displaying his cultivation at the Great Accomplishment of the Yi Jin Realm.
He overwhelmed his opponent with sheer force, in a direct and honorable manner, leaving Ning Yue no chance for a sneak attack or counter-kill.
However, at this moment, it was Butler Fu’s turn to chuckle: “Young Master has nothing to worry about. That Earth-grade martial art from the Second Boss has been in this kid’s hands for many days now. By my reckoning, he should have achieved something with it by now.”
Then, he bowed slightly and asked in return, “Master, what do you say?”
Unbeknownst to them, Xue Father had secretly snuck into the room at some point, sitting down to watch the show.
At this moment, Xue Chengwu frowned, shaking his head slightly and saying, “It’s hard to say. This kid is deeply hidden, and he has already entered the Yi Jin Realm.”
Xue Ren was greatly alarmed, stumbling and almost falling.
And Xiao Wenjie, who was in the arena, was also greatly alarmed!
Ning Yue, who was clearly still in the Lian Rou Realm last night, had actually entered the Yijin (Tendon Changing) in a single night.
As soon as the Cold Light Blade appeared, all the blade light in the sky was swept away by it, and the sky became clear again.
In terms of cultivation alone, the position of Zongqi was already within his grasp.
In terms of major realms, he was no less than him, and observing his steps, they were both erratic and unpredictable, and the star trails were elusive, much faster than last night!
Was he enlightened by the Buddha last night?!
Xiao Wenjie secretly rejoiced that, just in case, last night he had spent his last two first-class merits to exchange for this cultivation method, and with the help of spirit pills, he had barely achieved minor accomplishment.
Today, it was just in time!
Both of them fought fast against fast. A battle that should have taken hundreds of moves to decide a winner now saw no one avoiding the edge, clashing head-on.
It is better to take it straight than to seek it through twists!
Zhao Silu’s gaze followed the two, but her vision was distorted by the aftershocks of the battle, and a look of confusion appeared in her eyes.
Their Yi Jin Realm seemed to be different from hers. At this moment, she recalled Manager Yu’s frustrated gaze and her brother’s doting eyes.
Until a series of booming sounds broke her thoughts.
Bursts of sonic booms echoed in her ears, the clang of two blades was incessant, and the white airwaves splashing in the air made the ancient trees sway and the willow catkins in the courtyard instantly scatter!
Ning Yue, who had just entered the Yi Jin Realm, showed no signs of distress in the battle. His steps were light as dust, his robes fluttered, and the starlight under his feet almost filled the small courtyard.
The Cold Light Blade was as graceful as a swimming dragon, its brilliant light unextinguished, often narrowly avoiding blade edges by a hair's breadth, and continuously launching fierce attacks, forcing Xiao Wenjie to occasionally defend.
There was no quick defeat; the battle had reached a stalemate!
However, Xiao Wenjie in the arena now spoke: “Ning Yue, I don’t want to hurt you! Are you really going to resist to the end?!”
“Or let me in and let me explain in detail to Zongqi Xue in person, that’s also fine! Military orders are paramount, don’t be so stubborn.”
Ning Yue let out a long laugh, not answering, his blade light suddenly drawing down the sky's light, illuminating the entire courtyard, even turning the green vine leaves white.
On the bluestone slab, a startled swan had appeared, the blade swirling with a fierce wind, the blade steeped in cold light!
A dazzling white, extremely bright blade light, like a rainbow piercing the sun, slashed towards Xiao Wenjie.
Answering with the blade, a single startled swan descended!
Xiao Wenjie’s gaze held both surprise and admiration, as well as a trace of deeply hidden regret.
The long blade in his hand suddenly flew out, and then he spread his large hand, as if unfolding a vast curtain that covered the sky, gathering the sight of everyone in the courtyard into his palm.
Ning Yue, sheathing his blade, was pushed by an inexplicable force, uncontrollably moving towards Xiao Wenjie!
At this time, even the various minor officials hiding at the side of the arena were somewhat unable to control themselves, swaying their bodies.
Earth-grade martial art — Ten Thousand Aspects Mysterious Magnetic Attraction!
Magnetic evil as the edge, transforming formless power into a prison, trapping enemies within a small space, specifically breaking ultimate light footwork!
Xiao Wenjie’s mocking voice vibrated through the magnetic field, reaching only Ning Yue’s ears: “Since you won’t listen to reason, then you… go to hell!”
However… in this perilous situation, Xiao Wenjie still failed to catch a trace of panic in his opponent’s eyes; instead, there was an almost palpable eagerness, a joy of the hunt!
Following the magnetic force, Ning Yue suddenly threw the Cold Light Blade. The cold light flashed, resting between Xiao Wenjie’s eyebrows, but it could no longer advance an inch.
The magnetic light was dazzling, and the repulsive force suppressed spiritual energy. Xiao Wenjie casually flicked his hand, pushing Ning Yue’s blade away. The extremely fierce and sharp blade light could not harm his finger in the slightest.
And Ning Yue was still being pushed forward by the gravitational pull. Xiao Wenjie wielded the magnetic attraction and repulsion with his will, controlling this battle space.
Ning Yue was like a caged bird, large swathes of star trails in the small courtyard dimmed, and the Cold Light Blade became obscure and difficult to discern for a time.
But Ning Yue, who seemed to have reached the end of his rope, merely brought two fingers together in front of him, and with a cold flick backward, like an eagle spreading its wings, like a dragon wagging its tail!
“Ang!!!”
The dragon’s roar transformed into rolling thunder, sweeping across the ground. The bluestone slabs between the two suddenly undulated like waves, and under the interaction of an inexplicable force and magnetic force, they shattered inch by inch. The center of the courtyard looked as if it had been plowed by a wild ox, with rising and falling dust.
Ning Yue’s two fingers were like dotting the eyes of a dragon, summoning it before him, pointing distantly at his opponent. An invisible, overwhelming pressure made everyone in the courtyard tremble to their souls.
What gravity, what repulsion, what geomantic mysterious light—all were shattered before these two fingers.
What Great Accomplishment of Yijin (Tendon Changing), what a hero with a blade—they were still not enough before these two fingers!
Jie Mai Qinlong (Arresting Dragon Vein) and the third-rank Dragon Tiger Primordial Chaos Art were unexpectedly compatible. With the combined power of the two, the might was more than doubled!
After achieving Great Accomplishment, this was the first time Ning Yue had displayed it in front of others, delivering a killing blow to someone at the Great Accomplishment of Yijin (Tendon Changing)!
Unable to dodge, unable to avoid, facing such a brilliant strike, Xiao Wenjie felt a sudden sense of powerlessness.
But the feeling of despondency was instantly extinguished by his Dao heart. I refuse to accept this!
Xiao Wenjie’s eyes were bloodshot, his entire body’s tendons surged, and his blood rushed to the top of his head. He would rather perish together than accept such an outcome!
Clang! Clang!
The sound was like a chime, the sound wave like a rushing river!
Xiao Wenjie’s fist was blocked and sent back, and the blood throughout his body was gently repelled by this force, but he still suffered a serious internal injury, and bright blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.
And Ning Yue’s fingers also stopped advancing, forcefully slapped down by an irresistible force, his entire body’s blood surging like angry waves crashing against the shore.
A deep, almost black, blue-robed figure stood between the two. His left hand was a palm, blocking the fist, and his right hand clapped, flicking away Ning Yue’s two fingers.
Even a master of the Yi Jin Realm would not dare to directly confront these two fierce attacks, yet this person effortlessly neutralized them in an instant, like spring rain dissolving into nothing, leaving no trace.
Just a moment ago, it seemed as if heaven and earth were about to overturn, but now, in an instant, there was silence.
The junior officials in their black uniforms, witnessing such a scene for the first time, all stared blankly, mouths slightly agape, even unconsciously loosening their grip on Wei Xian and the others.
Even Zhao Silu’s eyes flashed with a bewildered and confused light.
And this person stood in the courtyard, seemingly absorbing all the light. The warm spring sunlight struggled to penetrate his deep, dark eyes.
Only Xue Father and son in the house brightened their eyes, thinking to themselves, “It’s him!”
