NOVPUBJust as Suo Wenhong lamented, "Who wrote this ridiculous challenge letter?" the seventh prince had already exchanged a brief message with his guards in their unique way. He first transmitted a message to his four guards: "You have never seen a real Modern Cultivator fight, take a good look this time, and don't misjudge your opponent's strength later—don't end up like the Chen Family of Piaoyun." Then, his tone carried a trace of respect, "Master Xiao, which side do you think has the better chance of winning?"
Among the guards, the tallest and oldest-looking man communicated in the same way: "Having never seen the Modern Elites in action, I dare not judge. But what is certain is that the Qi Cultivation young man named Wang Qi is very confident—he seemingly did not take this duel seriously at all, and stuck to his daily routine before coming over leisurely, his calmness already surpassing your friend, Your Highness."
"Friend? No, no, no, since Ran San has joined Mysterious Palace, he's no longer my friend," Wen Huang said indifferently, "Among Modern Cultivators, there are no friends."
After saying this, he suddenly realized something and anxiously glanced at Chen Feng. It was said that disciples of Yangshen Pavilion were the best at mind-reading. Could they have perceived anything?
Guessing the seventh prince's thoughts, "Elder Xiao" transmitted a reassuring sentiment: "No need to worry, this newly unearthed Ancient Secret Technique is not something these Modern Heretics can decipher."
At this moment, both parties from the Modern times had already entered the field. Chen Feng gave Wen Huang and the others a strange look. He sensed their unfriendly emotions and inquired, "What's the matter with these Daoist Fellows from the Divine Capital?"
Ran Yingwei snorted: "My friend has been waiting with me all day long."
Waited all day, so there is resentment?
Chen Feng shook his head with a wry smile. As time went on, Wang Qi seemed to take the fight less and less seriously. He had urged the other party to come early today, yet Wang Qi leisurely finished processing the day's data, ate a meal, and then came over with the attitude of someone taking a stroll after eating.
Handling things this way even made him, Chen Feng, feel embarrassed and ashamed to meet people!
Wang Qi, on the other hand, felt no such embarrassment. If it had been seven days earlier, he might have taken this seriously, but over the past seven days, he had been studying daily with Feng Luoyi and was gradually infected by the unwavering confidence of this peerless Carefree Master.
Approach with composure, not allowing any situation to disrupt his own rhythm, to slow down his own step technique.
Also, letting these fools bask in the sun outside the Divine Capital for a day was rather amusing. Yes, that was it.
From beginning to end, Wang Qi had never thought to weaken the other side's morale.
He stood in the center of the field doing warm-up exercises, at the same time asking, "So, you're saying it's up to me to decide how we fight, right?"
Suo Wenhong sneered, "That's right, but it looks like the junior brother is hell-bent on picking a physical fight…"
"Ten."
When Wang Qi indifferently uttered that word, Suo Wenhong failed to grasp the situation: "'Ten' refers to?"
"I want to fight ten," Wang Qi said as he casually drew his long sword, pointing at the others, "Come at me together, a grand occasion."
Chen Youjia coldly pointed out from behind: "There are only eight officials to witness, and including the audience, there are only seventeen people."
The Wanfa Sect disciple, who had already prepared to face off against Wang Qi, exploded in anger: "Ten are unnecessary, I alone can make you scurry away like a rat with its head held low!"
"Aren't you going to give your name?" Wang Qi asked with lackluster interest, "You all know my name, right?"
"Wanfa Sect, Gong Shu." The youth drew his sword, and as the character "Shu" left his lips, the sword thrust forward.
The disciples of Wanfa Sect pursue a swordsmanship so subtle it could split hairs, and disciples are all skilled with a sword, also understanding the importance of leveraging Fast Sword to seize the first move. Wang Qi, however, still stood there in a loose and relaxed manner, the sword in his hand seemingly attempting to parry the incoming longsword, but the tip of his sword missed the their blade, allowing the opponent to thrust at him.
Just as the longsword was about to pierce his wrist, Wang Qi suddenly twitched his hand. Then, like coming to life, his sword "shook its head and wagged its tail," striking the center of gravity of the opponent's longsword just right.
This sword move wasn't particularly astonishing, but the key was in the precision—it was perfect.
With this strike, Wang Qi earned himself a "one sword" gap. His sword exploited this "one sword" gap and then he thrust with force!
Still aiming at the spot on the opponent's mana, still calculating the force and torque precisely, he used the most ordinary method to once again push the opponent's longsword out of a "one sword" gap.
Gong Shu's eyelid twitched, realizing he had been careless. Although his cultivation wasn't high, his eyes were always sharp. Wang Qi's Sword Momentum might have seemed plain and common, but two consecutive strikes had precisely torn open his offensive, and to such an extent that it was barely a "one sword" gap. If Gong Shu's attacks had been a bit more fierce, he could have used the swordsmanship honed in the Wanfa Sect to counterattack using the momentum. But the gaps Wang Qi created were too small, adding a close and dangerous check that prevented Gong Shu from using the force to counterattack, so he had to interrupt his offensive and circle back his sword to cover the breach.
This was the ingenious "One Technique to Break All Laws"!
Gong Shu retreated, and Wang Qi advanced a step, still casually thrusting.
Third sword!
This strike once again tore through Gong Shu's Sword Momentum. Gong Shu clenched his teeth tightly, desperately trying to recover his rhythm. But Wang Qi's longsword always ignored that spot three inches from his chest, rendering Gong Shu's numerous sophisticated sword moves useless. The two's thoughts moved faster and faster, starting with meeting each move in turn, to the point where the Fast Sword became like fleeting shadows and streaking light, dazzling the onlookers to the point of near breathlessness.
No, Gong Shu was not nearly breathless; he really couldn't catch his breath. Wang Qi's sword tip kept flickering back and forth over his chest, regardless of how he changed his moves, he simply couldn't break free or slash away that sword that threatened his life!
Such a brilliant "One Technique to Break All Laws," where had he learned it from!
All the disciples of Wanfa Sect present harbored this doubt.
To "Break All Laws with One Technique" not only required superb mathematics, but also extraordinary vision and broad horizons. Our swordsmanship has been continuously refined within the sect, but this youngster has never been to Wanfa Sect, and the recorded battles of him are few and far between, where had he learned it from!
Gong Shu grew relentless, retreating two steps, his longsword diagonally cleaving and fiercely smashing toward Wang Qi's longsword. Wang Qi's wrist turned, his longsword shifted slightly, and each time it brushed past Gong Shu's longsword. Amidst this dense onslaught, the sound of the two longswords clashing seemed prolonged—Wang Qi was actually able to dodge most of the opponent's attack with just a flick of his wrist!
"Gong Shu, come back!" Suo Wenhong frowned. The swordsmanship that Wang Qi was currently demonstrating had greatly exceeded his expectations, Gong Shu had been too complacent and lost the first move, now there was no point in continuing.
Gong Shu quickly retreated. But Wang Qi advanced faster.
Wang Qi stepped forward twice, bypassing Gong Shu. With a flick of his longsword, a net of Sword Qi formed, overwhelmingly advancing toward everyone from the opponent's side.
