Swish swish swish!
In the arena, the twelve flying swords’ encircled and hunted Shen Qiangwei like an unending rainstorm.
An ordinary participant would have been defeated long ago.
But Shen Qiangwei…
As the only female contestant in the quarterfinals, she had persisted.
Her capabilities were admirable.
But if this continued, she probably wouldn’t be able to last much longer.
At this moment, Shen Qiangwei’s body was covered in cuts, and the blood flowing out stained the stage.
However, Jian Wuchen did not see her as a woman in his heart, so he was naturally strong when he drew his sword.
He didn’t know how to be gentle with women.
In his eyes, battles only excited him, and defeating his opponent would satisfy him.
However, controlling so much sword energy consumed a lot of his True Qi, so it was also quite exhausting.
Jian Wuchen knew that he could only maintain it for about three minutes.
If he could not make Shen Qiangwei lose her combat ability during this period of time, he would probably collapse in the end.
“Let’s see how long you can last.” Jian Wuchen strengthened his focus on controlling his flying swords.
The twelve flying swords locked onto Shen Qiangwei like hawks with their sharp claws and launched a frenzied attack.
Shen Qiangwei’s double blades were chipped, and there were now more wounds on her body. The bandage on her upper body was also ripping from the cuts.
Even so, she did not admit defeat. Rather, she still appeared very calm.
A minute passed.
There was only one layer of bandage left on Shen Qiangwei’s body. Through the gaps, one could see the curves of the snowy white beauties.
The male audience feasted their eyes, and some even had a nosebleed.
Shen Qiangwei was half-kneeling on the ground. Her breathing was rapid and exceptionally weak. Her dual sabers were only half their length, and fresh blood dripped onto the ground.
Above her, the twelve flying swords looked like ferocious beasts with their mouths wide open.
It seemed that once they landed, the match would basically end.
A smile appeared on Jian Wuchen’s exhausted face.
“This junior from the Shen family is really stubborn, but this is about to end anyway.”
Jian Wuchen waved his hand, and the twelve flying swords dropped like guillotines.
The male audience was in despair… because the last layer of the bandage hadn’t been removed.
However, at this moment.
Array lines suddenly appeared above the arena, forming an array formation design.
In the next moment, shimmering gold chains emerged from the array formation and instantly drowned the twelve flying swords.
Everyone was shocked.
At the same time, they were overjoyed.
Shen Qiangwei’s specialty was her strange array formation techniques.
Everyone could tell that apart from wanting to end the match quickly, Jian Wuchen’s other objective in attacking Shen Qiangwei in this way was to disrupt her so that she would not have the time to set up the array formations.
However, at the critical moment, the array formation appeared. Shen Qiangwei did not disappoint.
For the first time, Jian Wuchen frowned.
“This child… how did she set up the array formation?”
Jian Wuchen did not manage to figure it out. Every time he attacked, it would be a fatal blow. Shen Qiangwei did not have the energy to set up the array formation at all.
But in the end, she still managed to set one up.
But this was not important.
It’s a mere array formation. I can destroy it with a single strike from my sword.
Jian Wuchen’s fighting will erupted once again. The twelve flying swords that were drowned by the countless chains shone brightly and instantly broke free from the restraints.
But soon, new chains emerged from the array formation and surged towards the flying swords.
The flying swords slashed again and again, but new chains would appear without end as if they could not ever be removed entirely.
“These chains are troublesome!” Jian Wuchen knew very well that he could not fight a prolonged battle. He had to destroy the array formation.
He controlled the flying swords again and stacked them into a giant flying sword.
Jian Wuchen circulated a large amount of True Qi, and the gigantic flying sword became even sharper.
“Today, I, Jian Wuchen, will destroy your array formation.”
With that, the gigantic flying sword was like a ferocious tiger as it destroyed the array formation with an unparalleled aura.
Countless chains turned into specks of starlight.
“Shen Qiangwei, it’s good that you can persist until now.
“But I am always the final victor.”
Jian Wuchen’s deep voice resounded throughout the entire venue.
Shen Qiangwei stood up straight, but the corner of her mouth revealed a disdainful smile.
“You’re a frog in the well!”
Shen Qiangwei walked towards Jian Wuchen.
Jian Wuchen frowned slightly. He was rather puzzled by this.
“Slash!”
Jian Wuchen did not know what Shen Qiangwei was going to do. The gigantic flying sword in the sky unfolded again and turned into twelve streaks of iridescence that thrust towards Shen Qiangwei.
However, when the twelve flying swords were about to hit Shen Qiangwei’s body, they suddenly stopped.
Shen Qiangwei came before Jian Wuchen.
Jian Wuchen did not move at all. He was like a piece of wood, feeling like he had been struck by an Immobilizing Spell.
Shen Qiangwei condensed her True Qi into a sharp blade and directly pierced through Jian Wuchen’s body.
Jian Wuchen collapsed and lost his combat ability.
The twelve flying swords went out of control and dropped to the ground.
The referee suspended in mid-air was stunned for a while before announcing Shen Qiangwei’s victory.
Everyone in the audience was dumbfounded.
Jian Wuchen clearly had a huge advantage, and he was able to swiftly end the battle.
Why did he just stand there in the end and allow Shen Qiangwei to attack him?
“That was rigged! It was definitely a fixed match!”
The masses have discerning eyes. They could not imagine this ending.
It is definitely a fixed match.
Do you really think that we are blind?
The audience was dissatisfied with the outcome, especially those who supported Jian Wuchen.
The referees were also very puzzled by this.
Like the audience, they were also confused by Jian Wuchen’s final act.
The referee looked towards the judges.
Wang Zhixing stood up and faced the audience. He loudly said, “There is no doubt that Shen Qiangwei won this match. If you have any questions, you can carefully watch the recording of the match.”
Everyone knew who Wang Zhixing was. He was the acting dean of the headquarters and an authoritative figure in the Combat specialization.
Since he said so, it probably wasn’t a fixed match.
But if it was not a fake competition, the audience couldn’t understand why Jian Wuchen did not move at all in the end.
This was what everyone was most perplexed about.
…
Depths of the Devil Sea.
In the secret base.
“What? You’re saying that Shen Qiangwei is an immortal cultivator from the outer realm?”
Wang Zhixing seemed very surprised.
Qin Chuan sat opposite him and told Wang Zhixing about the problem he had discovered in Shen Qiangwei.
“Shen Qiangwei is a descendant of the Shen family. Her background and the test by the Heart Refining Rock were all fine. How can she be from the outer realm?” Wang Zhixing still found it hard to believe.
Qin Chuan took a sip of tea and said, “Shen Qiangwei is really good at concealing. She is excellent at disguise, I almost couldn’t tell.”
“Since she’s from the outer realm, I’ll capture her and interrogate her for her purpose,” Wang Zhixing said.
Qin Chuan waved his hand and said, “Peak Master Wang, we are still unsure if she has any accomplices. If you capture her, wouldn’t you be alerting the enemy?
“Besides, it won’t be easy to catch her.
“She’s in the same realm as me!”
Wang Zhixing was shocked. “Sect Master, you’re saying she is also in the Immortal realm.”
Qin Chuan nodded. “I just entered the Immortal realm not long ago. I’m currently in the third class of the Heaven Immortal realm.
“As for her, she’s in the eighth class of the Heaven Immortal realm.”
Wang Zhixing took a deep breath. “Then Sect Master, you…”
Qin Chuan smiled, “You don’t have to worry about that. With my current strength, even if she’s a Mystic Immortal, I can ensure that she won’t be able to return.”
Qin Chuan was filled with incomparable confidence as he said this..
