Martial Arts Overlord

"Damn it, Wind Sweeping Calamity!"

Constantly pushed back, the Divine Wind Saber Guest grew utterly furious, his slightly reddened eyes locking onto Yue Haitang. Gripping the saber hilt with both hands, he roared, slashing continuously, delivering over a hundred slashes in an instant.

Boom boom boom boom boom...

A dense whirlwind of mini Saber Qi interwove and clashed in the space, almost covering more than half of the platform, carrying an overwhelming momentum to crush Yue Haitang.

Yue Haitang frowned slightly. Such concentrated Saber Qi made it difficult for even the Phantom Mirage Step to evade, leaving only one path: confrontation!

Swish!

The treasured sword stood before his nose. Instantly, his eyes were lit up by the sword’s edge, as if brewing wind and thunder, bursting forth with endless sharpness.

"Clouds Piled Thousands Fold!"

Swish swish swish swish swish swish...

The sword light suddenly surged, layer upon layer of Sword Qi carrying the sound of mountain winds and ocean waves, surging forward to clash against the saber light.

Boom boom boom boom...

In an instant, the earth-shattering explosions resounded continuously, the entire Ascending Dragon Platform shaking slightly with every clash of Sword Qi and saber light.

A hundred moves!

Two hundred moves!

Four hundred moves!

The two have exchanged a full four hundred moves, yet remain evenly matched.

"Yue Haitang is about to lose."

On the viewing platform, a sharp-eyed disciple from the Sky Sword Pavilion spoke up.

"Senior Brother Li, why do you say that?"

"Yue Haitang excels in movement techniques, while the Divine Wind Saber Guest’s strength lies in his lightning-fast saber technique. If they counter each other’s moves, the agile Yue Haitang would have the advantage, but now in a direct confrontation, the Divine Wind Saber Guest clearly has the upper hand."

After more than five hundred moves, the tides of the battle finally shifted. Yue Haitang’s momentum gradually weakened, forced to retreat continuously, while the Divine Wind Saber Guest’s momentum grew stronger.

"Yue Haitang, you can’t hold on!"

Slash after slash, the Divine Wind Saber Guest, full of confidence, pressed on step by step, a cold sneer in his heart: No matter how good-looking, you’re still my defeated opponent!

"That may not be the case!"

Seeing Yue Haitang being pushed to the edge of the Ascending Dragon Platform, about to lose at any moment.

Suddenly, an astonishing sword stance erupted from her, changing the atmosphere of the platform. The air twisted, and illusory sword shadows appeared in the void.

These sword shadows were dim and some were partially broken, some only had half a blade, slanted into the ground as if they had endured thousands of years, yet still exuded an aura of sharpness, unmatched, circling around Yue Haitang like stars congealing around the moon.

Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz...

At the peak, the swordsmen present changed their expressions drastically, for no reason, their swords vibrated and hummed, trying to fly out to merge with Yue Haitang’s sword intent, yet they couldn’t suppress them.

"Sword Intent, such a strong Sword Intent, it can even affect others’ sword stances!"

"His Sword Intent, although of the small success realm, is far stronger than mine."

On various islands, many people stood up in surprise, exclamations of awe ringing out.

"This Sword Intent..."

On a small island, Su Zhuyun watched the remnant sword illusions, a flicker of astonishment in her bright eyes.

Swish!

At this moment, twelve Golden Palace elders responsible for the competition appeared around the Ascending Dragon Platform.

"Cut!"

As streams of Qi Force appeared, that intangible sharpness was severed, finally calming the swords of the swordsmen present.

Rules in the ranking match forbid external assistance. If the swords of the swordsmen were to merge with Yue Haitang’s Sword Intent, its power would undoubtedly increase, but that does not comply with the competition rules.

"Defeat!"

Meanwhile, Yue Haitang struck. With a flick of the sword tip, all the sword shadows conformed to his command, merging into his sword stance, transforming into a cascade of Sword Qi, annihilating all Saber Qi in its path, like a breaking bamboo.

"Don’t underestimate me, Bloody Wind Mad Dance!"

The Divine Wind Saber Guest roared, massive Saber Qi surging up, forming a whirlwind shield to fend off the attack.

Boom!

The Sword Qi collided against the saber in the Divine Wind Saber Guest’s hand, not losing its momentum, carrying him straight towards the blue curtain of light.

Rumble!

With a loud crash, the blue curtain of light, capable of absorbing attacks from a True Yuan Realm martial artist, was dented significantly.

The Divine Wind Saber Guest slid to the ground, supporting himself with his saber, lifted his head to glance at Yue Haitang, then suddenly coughed up a large mouthful of blood, unable to hold himself up, he half-knelt down.

Clang!

Yue Haitang sheathed his sword without intending to strike again.

"Yue Haitang wins."

A Sky Sword Pavilion elder standing by glanced at Yue Haitang and announced the result.

Watching Yue Haitang ascend the tenth dragon pillar, Luo Feng smiled. Throughout, he had never worried about Yue Haitang losing.

If Yue Haitang could use the Sword Tomb Swordsmanship, this duel might end in three moves, with no need to drag on so long.

His concern lay elsewhere now.

Turning his gaze, Luo Feng looked towards a distant island, thinking to himself: Hopefully, I wasn’t discovered.

On the island, Su Zhuyun retracted her gaze, asking Jiang Fengfeng beside her, "Fengfeng, what do you think of Yue Haitang’s Sword Intent?"

"Ah!"

Jiang Fengfeng, who had been gazing at Yue Haitang, was startled awake by the question, her cheeks flushing red, responding a bit flustered, "Senior Sister, Yue Haitang, his Sword Intent, what about it?"

Su Zhuyun said, "His Sword Intent is somewhat similar to the intent realm of our Sword Tomb in the Sword Tomb forbidden area. It’s rare to see a Sword Intent that can influence others’ sword stances."

"Is it?"

Jiang Fengfeng’s eyes lit up slightly, "His Sword Intent is that powerful?"

Although she was watching the competition just now, her focus was not on the competition itself but on Yue Haitang, so she hadn’t paid much attention to the Sword Intent Yue Haitang displayed.

Su Zhuyun, curious, frowned and said, "Fengfeng, were you not watching his duel just now? Besides, you used to regard Luo Feng as an ordinary person, so why are you starting to praise Yue Haitang now? I think Luo Feng’s strength surpasses Yue Haitang’s."

"How can Luo Feng compare to Yue Haitang!"

Jiang Fengfeng pouted in dissatisfaction, suddenly realizing she was overly protective of Yue Haitang, she immediately remarked, "Senior Sister, could you suspect that Yue Haitang is a blood relative of the Holy Swordmaster?"

Su Zhuyun nodded, "It’s possible, but I’m not entirely sure."

"Then when the New Dragon List tournament ends, we’ll seek him out for confirmation! By then, the truth will be clear." Jiang Fengfeng’s eyes lit up and she immediately said.

Su Zhuyun gave it no further thought, nodding, "It’s all we can do for now. But don’t act rashly, this place is not like others where you can do as you please."

After the battle between Yue Haitang and the Divine Wind Saber Guest concluded, two more matches followed.

Han Wudao first challenged Su Xiaokang.

Despite experiencing defeat before, Su Xiaokang didn’t concede because he knew well, aside from Han Wudao, he stood no chance against anyone else on the tenth tier. This match was his last opportunity to place in the top ten new dragons; failure would mean losing his spot for sure.

Both Su Xiaokang and Han Wudao understood the significance of this match, unleashing killing moves and all kinds of trump cards against each other, battling fiercely.

However, Su Xiaokang’s strength was ultimately a notch below Han Wudao’s, and after over a hundred moves, he was defeated again.

(Luo Feng expressed despair over this face-valued world, begging for votes.)
