“That’s right. Do you have any questions?” Lu Zhou asked.
“No. I just want to confirm it,” Chen Fu replied.
“Severing the lotus frees the avatar. My disciple, Yu Shangrong, is the first person to sever his lotus. It’s truly unprecedented,” Lu Zhou said.
“…”
Chen Fu, who finally understood what was going on, looked at Yu Shangrong approvingly. “Each generation is really better than the last one. You’re a hero.”
“Thank you for your praise, Saint Chen. It’s just a small trick; it’s not worth mentioning,” Yu Shangrong said.
Upon hearing this, Yu Zhenghai frowned. ‘Forget it, forget it. I’ll let you show off today.’
Chen Fu turned to look at his disciples and said, “This is an example you should all learn from.”
Lu Zhou said, “Let’s continue with the sparring session.”
Since there were five Venerable Masters among Chen Fu’s disciples, there would be five matches.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaoruo walked out. He had been trying hard to hold back.
He could not wait to test his skills. He was different from his fellow disciples.
Autumn Dew Mountain had lost three matches in a row and had lost all its dignity. If this continued, how could the Autumn Dew Mountain stand firm in Great Han in the future? Their master’s time was almost up. Once their master was gone, how would the Autumn Dew Mountain be able to intimidate the world and sit firmly at the peak? He would let the person in front of him go just because he was weak. He was rather disdainful of Yun Tongxiao’s methods.
Zhang Xiaoruo said to Zhou Guang, “Senior brother, please allow me to go first.” “Go ahead.” Zhou Guang nodded.
Then, Zhang Xiaoruo cupped his hands at the people of the Evil Sky Pavilion and bluntly asked, “Who’s willing to come out and fight with me?”
Yu Zhenghai and Yu Shangrong had already fought so naturally they would no longer participate.
Mingshi Yin smiled and said mockingly, “Let me do it. I’ll let you taste the taste of defeat. ”
Mingshi Yin did not mince his words at all.
Zhang Xiaoruo replied, “I’m afraid you’ll be the one to lose.”
The duo lacked the courtesy of those before them. Their words were filled with gunpowder even before the fight started. With this, they aroused the enthusiasm of the audience even more.
Everyone was looking forward to watching a good show.
“I’m so scared. Then, you have to hold back. Otherwise, I’m afraid I won’t be able to beat you,” Mingshi Yin said.
Just as Mingshi Yin was about to enter the arena, Duanmu Sheng suddenly said,
“Fourth Senior Brother, your cultivation isn’t any weaker than those of Eldest
Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother. You better not bully the weak.”
Zhang Xiaoruo was shocked.
Mingshi Yin said, “Third Senior Brother, how can my cultivation be comparable to Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother? I’m still weaker than them.”
“Don’t pretend. It’s not like I don’t know you. I think it’s best if you let me fight,” Duanmu Sheng said, clearly determined to fight.
“Ah?” Mingshi Yin wanted to reply, but when he saw Duanmu Sheng glaring at him, he could only swallow his words.
With this, Zhang Xiaoruo hurriedly said, “Let’s just continue with following the order of seniority. Let this brother fight.”
After saying that, Zhang Xiaoruo thought to himself, ‘That guy looks cunning, and his eyes are sinister. As expected, he’s not a good person! To think he’s as strong as his Eldest and Second Senior Brothers! I almost suffered a huge loss…’
Mingshi Yin retreated to the side and said resentfully, “Consider yourself lucky.”
Zhang Xiaoruo replied with an insincere smile, “Thank you.”
Duanmu Sheng carried the Overlord Spear and walked into the arena. He pointed at Zhang Xiaoruo and said, “My Fourth Junior Brother is wrong.”
‘You’re not lucky,” Duanmu Sheng said in a clear voice, “In fact, you’re even more unlucky to have met me.”
Swoosh!
Duanmu Sheng raised his Overlord Spear horizontally and tilted it 45 degrees upward. Then, he flew out swiftly, leaving afterimages in his wake. In just a blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Zhang Xiaoruo.
“Thousand Waves!”
As Duanmu Sheng leaped up, tens of thousands of energy spears shot toward Zhang Xiaoruo.
Zhang Xiaoruo was shocked. He retreated as he resisted the overbearing energy spears. He wondered if his opponent was even stronger than the first two disciples of the Evil Sky Pavilion. The overbearing attack continued forcing him to retreat. When he reached the edge of the arena, he leaped into the sky.
Duanmu Sheng followed closely behind. His long spear was like a golden dragon.
Zhang Xiaoruo hovered in the air as he pressed his hand down and cried out, “Expansive Heavenly Energy!”
Upon seeing this, Lu Zhou said, “Confucian technique?”
Chen Fu said, “I’m skilled in the three schools of cultivation. Zhang Xiaoruo’s very skilled in the Confucian school’s techniques such as the Expansive Heavenly Energy.”
“The Confucian school’s style is restrained, and their practitioners have easy-going vitality energy. This child’s vitality energy is overbearing…” Lu Zhou remarked.
‘You have a discerning eye,” Chen Fu said, “Zhang Xiaoruo was often bullied when he was young so he can’t stand evil. The Confucian school’s techniques are indeed more restrained and harmonious, but the Expansive Heavenly Energy is different. The more overbearing one is, the more power one can unleash.”
“You have a point,” Lu Zhou said with a nod,
In the sky, Duanmu Sheng’s energy spears became increasingly fierce. The frequency of his attacks was unprecedented. Perhaps, he had been feeling suppressed in the Unknown Land for a long time and had not had a decent opponent to train with so he went out all out now that he met an opponent who was not pleasing to the eye.
Zhang Xiaoruo had been rather confident that the Expansive Heavenly Energy could crush the energy spears. Alas, he was doomed to be disappointed. “Imperfect Divine Intervention!”
The energy spears cut through the Expansive Heavenly Energy like a hot knife through butter.
Bang!
They continued to move upward.
Zhang Xiaoruo used the power of the Dao to move as well. He suddenly disappeared, and the energy spears missed their target.
However, Duanmu Sheng did not stop. He kept up his rhythm, moving higher and higher.
Everyone raised their heads and watched in shock.
When Zhang Xiaoruo saw how relentless Duanmu Sheng was, he said coldly as he pressed his hand down, “You think too highly of yourself. Have a taste of my Five
Stars Seal!”
A green palm seal burst forth from Zhang Xiaoruo’s palm and descended from the sky.
Duanmu Sheng did not retreat at all. He used the Imperfect Divine Intervention to counter the attack.
