It was as if a divine force had appeared – the dazzling gleam of the sword was like an avalanche, its mighty aura heading for He Bufan.
The two swords collided and it was as if a thunderbolt had struck the area beween the two of them. A ray of light flashed like lightning; it was so dazzling that the crowd could not even open their eyes.
The ray of light disappeared, but the shocking reverberations still echoed in their ears. Their hearts were beating faster than usual.
When they looked at the fighting ring again, all they could see was a cloud of dust which drifted with the wind. Ling Yichen stood tall in his original spot, but He Bufan had long flown out of the fighting ring.
One move. He managed to slash his opponent out of the fighting ring with just one move.
“I said it before: You only have the chance for one move,” Ling Yichen said calmly.
At that moment, his body was relaxed and there was no arrogance in his words at all. It was as if he was just stating a simple fact. Ling Yichen gave off an image of vast seas and wide skies, and the crowd admired his virtues and power.
The spectators were shocked speechless. They had really underestimated Nan Xia Country. Besides Ling Chuxi, Ling Yichen’s cultivation was surprisingly powerful as well. Even the referee, in the midst of his shock, had forgotten to announce the results.
Although it was a quick move, it seemed to still flash before their eyes, causing an endless recollection. The crowd feared they would never be able to forget the elegance and power of the move in this lifetime.
Xiao Tianying watched Ling Yichen for a long time. This move was so vast, powerful, and quick. He had not used any martial art skills like the Turning Cloud Gesture, but in a limitless realm, it seemed that man and sword had become one in that instant. Even he was shocked by the power contained in that move.
Was this the realization that Ling Yichen had after being promoted to the realm of Great Fulfilment? Ling Chuxi was also shocked, but she felt relieved too. She was happy seeing Ling Yichen’s immense improvement.
The spectators of Nan Xia Country finally regained their senses and shouted joyfully.
Only then did the referee realize what had happened, and quickly announced the start of the second round.
A young man with a slightly thin figure stood before Ling Yichen. This was Dong Xing Country’s Liu Yucheng.
Even though his body was not of solid stature, there were traces of madness and even unpredictability in his gaze.
“You also only have one chance to make a move,” Ling Yichen said.
“Alright, then let me see your move!” A surge of Battle Qi filled with recklessness erupted from Liu Yucheng’s body, slashing towards Ling Yichen. The Battle Qi on Liu Yucheng’s sword surged forward like burning flames.
This move was bold, with no regard of life and death.
Ling Chuxi knew what was going on with the recklessness in his eyes. He was not reckless towards others, but reckless towards himself. Looking at this move, it was clear that he carried a crazy determination to win. This type of person was terrifying.
Ling Chuxi could not help but worry a little. Even though Ling Yichen had defeated He Bufan with a single move, there was not that huge of a difference between both of their cultivation abilities. It was just that their realization towards the realm of Great Fulfilment was different. Most probably the depletion of Ling Yichen’s Battle Qi in that move was quite substantial as well. How would he deal with this insane move from Liu Yucheng?
Ling Yichen remained calm. There were rows of fine droplets of blood that had penetrated through his skin, making everyone anxious.
He actually did not hesitate to destroy his own meridians in order to forcefully urge his Battle Qi on. He wanted to break through his own body’s limitations to obtain a stronger Battle Qi. Ling Chuxi was shocked. She had initially thought that Liu Yucheng was reckless, but now she realized that Ling Yichen was even more reckless.
