Ling Yun opened his mouth and responded to Sikong Du's provocation with a confident smile, "Very well. Let's see which one of our specialties is stronger."
Although Ling Yun said that, he knew very well how dangerous Sikong Du's monster-like physique was. His sword is Sky Profound Realm Weapon, but it could only tear his skin.
Sikong Du flashed to Ling Yun's side and threw a punch.
[Nine Beasts Stance - Black Tortoise]
A flashing black light enveloped Sikong Du's fist as he directed his punch to Ling Yun's head.
BAM!
Ling Yun dodged but barely made it. His right cheek was 'actually' grazed by Sikong Du's fist and split open slightly.
He stepped back and made a ten-meter distance from Sikong Du.
Ling Yun's expression turned grave while wiping a streak of blood from his right cheek. He's twenty years of age, just like Sikong Du.
However, his cultivation base is higher than Sikong Du!
'I overestimate myself. I should have known better that the cultivation base is not absolute.' Ling Yun cursed inwardly.
Ling Yun and Sikong Du clashed fiercely in the main arena. They inflicted wounds on each other, but those injuries were superficial.
Countless sword lights burst out and penetrated the atmosphere.
A black-light soared and blew the sword lights away.
CLANK! BAM! BAM!
Sikong Du gritted his teeth and punched Ling Yun's sword. He used Nine Beasts Stance to the limit but still couldn't uncover the essence of Black Tortoise.
Fen Juechen was able to use Morning White Tiger.
Sikong Du entered an open stance with two arms beside his waist. "If he could use Morning White Tiger, I can use Dawn Black Tortoise!"
Ling Yun's hair stood up. He felt extreme danger from Sikong Du all of a sudden.
"Oh?" Cang Yue looked at this scene with little interest. In her eyes, Sikong Du looks like a defensive tortoise.
Don't look down on his weird horse stance because it was the most stable form out of Nine Beast Stance.
"Heaven's Might Absolute Sword - Second Form: Sun's Break!"
Ling Yun stabbed his sharp sword and unleashed a golden ray, which broke through the air. His long black hair danced wildly, giving off the feeling of a ferocious beast.
Sikong Du drove his right arm and punched the golden ray.
"DAWN BLACK TORTOISE!" A faint image of dawn appeared and was 'quickly' followed by a cry of a black tortoise.
BOOOOOOOM!
The Heavenly Sword Villa's master, Ling Yuefeng, stood up from his seat and stared at the stage in disbelief. He couldn't keep calm because his eldest son was about to lose.
That last attack is too dangerous.
Ling Yun's shoes skidded on the main stage and released a faint smoke as he stopped on the edge. He sucked a cold breath and felt his hand trembling due to excessive counterforce.
"This is not good." Ling Yun commented gravely. He thought about something and suddenly heard his father's voice.
'Use your other sword.'
'But father, you know controlling two Sky Profound Swords simultaneously would exhaust my control over sword techniques.'
'Do it, or you will lose miserably. We cannot afford defeat, Yun'er.'
'No, Heavenly Sword Villa cannot afford your defeat!'
Ling Yun wanted to refute but ultimately sighed at his incompetence. He knew the Heavenly Sword Villa's reputation had gone downhill for quite a while, and they couldn't do anything about it.
The strength Heavenly Sword Villa amassed for a thousand years is nothing against the Lost Heaven Sect, which suddenly appeared four years ago.
He tapped the ring on his finger and brought out another Sky Profound Sword.
"Heaven's Might Sky Sword Formation."
Ling Yun's swords fluttered by his movement. Countless white and golden lights moved, transforming into sharp swords.
He pointed his sword at Sikong Du and whispered, "Heaven's Might Absolute Sword."
"Final Form - Radiant Sky."
The white and golden swords merged into two gigantic swords about thirty meters long. Ling Yun's profound energy is consumed dry, showing this will be his final attack.
Sikong Du clenched his bleeding hand and balled it into a fist.
He grinned as the spirit in his heart blazed rapidly. His hair fell and burnt due to bursting potential.
"I could feel power coursing through my veins." Sikong Du closed his eyes and felt every inch of his body overflowing with vitality. Unfortunately, he couldn't admire it for too long.
After all, two gigantic swords have descended toward him.
"Go down!" Ling Yun roared.
Sikong Du twisted his hip calmly and punched the incoming gigantic swords.
[Nine Beasts Stance - Dawn Black Tortoise!]
[Barrage!]
Sikong Du punched the air rapidly, causing the image of a black tortoise to appear one after another. They met with the gigantic swords fearlessly.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
It's hard to imagine this was a fight between two Earth Profound Realms.
"GRAAAAAAAAA!!"
"CUUUUUUUTT!"
BOOOOOOOOOM!!
Ling Wuguo fortified the barrier around the main stage. His eyes widened when he saw a bloody man on the stage maintaining a horse stance.
Meanwhile, Ling Yun kneeled on the ground and tried to support his battered body with two Sky Profound Swords. However, Ling Wuguo noticed Ling Yun had long fainted.
"Thank you for the fight!" A sudden shout comes from the bloody man, who is none other than Sikong Du. Although his condition looked horrible, his clear eyes never wavered and stayed clear.
"Elder, announce the result." Cang Yue's calm voice permeated the Sword Discourse Arena.
Ling Wuguo sighed, "The match is over. The winner is Sikong Du from the Blue Wind Imperial Family's team!"
Sikong Du raised his right fist and stared at Fen Juechen, showing him a row of white teeth.
Fen Juechen smiled. He was 'actually' inspired by Sikong Du earlier and might be able to replicate his method of breaking his limitations.
After the fight between Ling Yun and Sikong Du, the following matches concluded without similar intensity.
And the top 8 are decided.
Xia Qingyue - Lost Heaven Sect.
Cang Yue - Blue Wind Imperial Family.
Fen Juechen - Blue Wind Imperial Family.
Sikong Du - Blue Wind Imperial Family.
Shui Wushuang - Frozen Cloud Asgard.
Wu Xuexin - Frozen Cloud Asgard.
Jing Jing - Frozen Cloud Asgard.
And Ling Jie - Heavenly Sword Villa.
The Blue Wind Ranking Tournament is different than the last one.
After all, the Blue Wind Imperial Family arrived out of nowhere and dominated almost half of the top 8.
Another rest time was 'purposely' given to the contestant. However, they only have ten minutes to rest and recover their profound energy.
Cang Yue fought against Wu Xuexin and proceeded to the semifinal.
Xia Qingyue fought with Sikong Du and also proceeded to the semifinal.
Ling Jie lost against Shui Wushuang, allowing the fairy of Frozen Cloud Asgard to enter the top 4.
Fen Juechen won against Jing Jing, surprising everyone for a bit. After all, his opponent is quite strong. He nearly lost half of his body due to Jing Jing's Frozen World Arts.
...
In the semifinal, a fight between Shui Wushuang and Xia Qingyue started.
"We meet again, Miss Qingyue." Shui Wushuang smiled at Xia Qingyue.
Xia Qingyue gave her a nod and replied, "It's only a month, but you have grown stronger than before..."
Shui Wushuang giggled and returned, "Hehe, I must thank the young master for that."
"Without his help, the Frozen Cloud Asgard won't improve this much."
"Just like any disciples of the Frozen Cloud Asgard, I admired him from the deepest part of my heart~!" She added with a playful wink.
Shui Wushuang's response caused an uproar in the audience as they didn't expect the Lost Heaven Sect's young leader to have such an intimate relationship with Frozen Cloud Asgard.
At the Heaven Sword Villa's area, the villa master(Ling Yuefeng) clenched his hand instinctively when he heard Shui Wushuang's response. Doesn't that mean Chu Yuechan has an explicit relationship with the Lost Heaven Sect's young leader?
Ling Yuefeng gazed at Chu Yuechan and mumbled with red eyes, "There is no way, right?"
'What a fool of a man you are, Yuefeng.' Xuanyuan Yufeng stared at her husband and snorted at his helplessness. 'Even with me beside you, you still bore the idea of having that woman.'
'Futile dream. Unlike you, the Lost Heaven Sect's young leader is a capable man. Why would Chu Yuechen choose you over him?'
Xuanyuan Yufeng peeked to see Yu Long's handsome face and gentle expression around his female companions, and she bit her lips in covetousness.
'If only...' Xuanyuan Yufeng shook her head. She shouldn't have succumbed to her dark desire.
Back to the main stage, Xia Qingyue's eyebrows twitched slightly.
"Wow, you actually dare to say such a thing in front of me. You do know that I'm Yu Long's wife, right?" Xia Qingyue crossed her arms.
"Please, go easy on me." Shui Wushuang earnestly responded, bowing her body as if she were asking permission from Xia Qingyue.
Xia Qingyue sternly replied, "We will see about that..."
