Chapter 215: Wearing Armor and Holding Sharp Weapons

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Whos being arrogant here?

Inside the Sunken Water Pavilion, Xiao Liling coldly snorted, about to step forward and challenge w.a.n.g Guiwu.

Sister Xiao, hold on for a moment. Your Exquisite Pearl is just a semi-spiritual tool, capable of entrapping but not subduing. For this match, let Sister go and test him first!

Miao Manyun held back Xiao Liling and whispered. While Xiao Lilings cultivation wasnt weak, her most powerful a.s.set was the spiritual tool, the Exquisite Pearl.

However, in this situation, the use of spiritual tools was prohibited, and the Exquisite Pearl couldnt be employed. As for the sub-pearl of the Exquisite Pearl, though it was a top-notch semi-spiritual tool, it ultimately fell short.

Against ordinary pract.i.tioners, such semi-spiritual tools were effective, but against true disciples like those from the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, the sub-pearl of the Exquisite Pearl was somewhat lacking.

Miao Manyun had a close relations.h.i.+p with the Xiao family, so she couldnt let Xiao Liling go up and get beaten.

Be careful, Sister. Xiao Liling hesitated for a moment, nodded, and a smile appeared on her face.

Miao Manyun turned her gaze towards w.a.n.g Guiwu, her figure moving as she stepped onto the sparring stage.

w.a.n.g Guiwu was initially prepared to provoke with his words, but when he saw Miao Manyun descending, a hint of a smile appeared on his face. Although she was a female disciple of the Sunken Water Pavilion, when it came to combat, w.a.n.g Guiwu wouldnt hesitate regardless of the opponents gender.

w.a.n.g Senior Brother, please instruct me! Miao Manyuns face displayed a hint of gentle charm as she spoke.

Show me your moves! w.a.n.g Guiwu nodded, ignoring Miao Manyuns coquettish demeanor.

w.a.n.g Senior Brother, you better watch your back!

As soon as Miao Manyuns words fell, her figure had already arrived in front of w.a.n.g Guiwu. A cold light swept toward his head.

For most people in Immortal Cloud City, their impression of the Sunken Water Pavilion was based on its disciples alluring appearances and extensive social connections, with little else.

Trying to list the outstanding aspects of the Sunken Water Pavilions martial arts would be a challenge for many. However, a sect that could stand in Immortal Cloud City for so many years couldnt possibly rely solely on connections.

The strength of many disciples in the Sunken Water Pavilion didnt particularly stand out compared to other sects, but that didnt mean the entire sect was like that.

Especially the true disciples who represented the face of the sect. Only by seeing the true transmission could one witness the most genuine legacy of the sect.

Good approach!

Seeing the cold light, w.a.n.g Guiwu laughed heartily. Unsheathing his long sword, he shattered the cold light aimed at him amid a thunderous sound. However, those cold lights quickly reformed and encircled w.a.n.g Guiwus neck.

The Wind Vortex Sword Technique, one of the top inheritances of the Sunken Water Pavilion.

The cold light emanating from Miao Manyuns hand was a thin blade as delicate as a cicadas wing, weak in strength but able to cut anything. The clash of sword lights between Miao Manyun and w.a.n.g Guiwu seemed like she was at a disadvantage, but she was actually redirecting the force to other places.

The Wind Vortex Sword Technique, using force to counter force, excelled in entanglement. As the battle progressed, the speed of the sword blade would increase, securing her victory.

In the blink of an eye, Miao Manyun and w.a.n.g Guiwu exchanged several moves.

Compared to the confrontation with Liu Peiyong earlier, Miao Manyun didnt choose to meet strength with strength; instead, she used softness to overcome rigidity. With each exchange, the cold lights swirling around w.a.n.g Guiwu increased in speed and quant.i.ty.

In the arena, it seemed that Miao Manyun had gained the upper hand.

Seeing this scene, the disciples of the Sunken Water Pavilion couldnt help but feel a sense of excitement. w.a.n.g Guiwus previous dominance over Liu Peiyong had filled them with worry for Miao Manyuns chances.

Now, however, it seemed that Miao Manyun might have a chance to defeat w.a.n.g Guiwu and claim victory in this compet.i.tion.

Seems like this could work!

Yan s.h.i.+jins eyes brightened. The strong display w.a.n.g Guiwu had put on against Liu Peiyong initially made him concerned about Miao Manyuns chances. But now, considering the possibility of using a more tactical approach, the situation might change.

Its not that simple!

Miao Daoxin stared below, especially at w.a.n.g Guiwus expression, and shook his head slightly. w.a.n.g Guiwu was too calm at the moment, and within that calmness was a hint of playfulness, like a cat toying with a mouse.

Perhaps hes worried that he performed too well, making us afraid to challenge him.

Chen Fei suddenly spoke, his powerful mental power allowing him to observe more details. Although it seemed that Miao Manyun was gradually gaining the upper hand on the surface, even turning this initiative into an advantage, acc.u.mulating bit by bit.

However, the flair displayed in w.a.n.g Guiwus techniques showed that he was exceptionally at ease. It was as if, at this moment, w.a.n.g Guiwu wasnt competing but rather engaging in a practice session with someone.

This statement might be a bit exaggerated, but Miao Manyuns current display of strength was certainly within w.a.n.g Guiwus capabilities to handle.

Otherwise, if w.a.n.g Guiwu sensed something amiss in this gradual and subtle contest, he would undoubtedly launch a thunderous counterattack instead of using the current coordination with typical sword techniques.

Yes, thats right!

Upon hearing Chen Feis a.n.a.lysis, Miao Daoxin immediately identified the source of this peculiar feeling. He turned his gaze towards Chen Fei, his expression filled with surprise.

Back when Chen Fei challenged Zeng Zaiwen, Miao Daoxin hadnt observed from the True Transmission Hall. In recent years, Miao Daoxin had focused solely on breaking through the Aperture Tempering realm, seldom paying attention to other matters.

At that time, Miao Daoxin regarded Chen Fei, a newly accepted true disciple, as somewhat presumptuous for challenging the tenth-ranked true disciple. But he never expected to learn afterward that Chen Fei had defeated Zeng Zaiwen, using the Yuanchen technique to win with a single move.

Upon learning this, Miao Daoxin truly took note of Chen Fei, as Miao Daoxin himself practiced the Zhongyuan Sword technique.

Miao Daoxin naturally understood that when Chen Fei defeated Zeng Zaiwen, he had already comprehended the Zhongyuan Sword technique to a significant degree.

Today, hearing Chen Feis insightful a.n.a.lysis, Miao Daoxins perception of Chen Fei elevated once more. To some extent, Miao Daoxin felt a sense of the younger generation surpa.s.sing the older.

Yan s.h.i.+jin, upon hearing their a.n.a.lysis, squinted his eyes slightly. He couldnt believe that w.a.n.g Guiwu was still managing to keep the upper hand against Miao Manyuns current display of strength.

Outside the sparring stage, disciples from various sects engaged in discussions, while the Aperture Tempering realm experts remained silent. Especially the elders of the Sunken Water Pavilion, who had slightly furrowed brows.

The disciples of the Sunken Water Pavilion were excited because they couldnt discern all the details yet.

Chen Fei and the others were able to perceive w.a.n.g Guiwus intentions, and naturally, those Aperture Tempering realm experts could see even more clearly.

In the blink of an eye, Miao Manyun and w.a.n.g Guiwu had exchanged dozens of moves. The cold light of the Wind Vortex Sword Technique now almost entirely enveloped w.a.n.g Guiwus figure.

A slight mistake could lead to a thoroughly battered outcome. However, w.a.n.g Guiwus expression remained composed, and at this moment, a hint of a smile appeared on his lips.

Miao Manyuns expression turned serious. While most people saw her gaining the upper hand, facing w.a.n.g Guiwu, she didnt feel that optimistic.

Even though the Wind Vortex Sword Technique was pushed to its limits at this moment, w.a.n.g Guiwus long sword continued to parry each attack, and this parrying, accompanied by w.a.n.g Guiwus calm demeanor, felt like it could continue indefinitely.

Rain of Swords!

Miao Manyun suddenly shouted, her soft sword vanis.h.i.+ng instantly. The cold light aimed at w.a.n.g Guiwu transformed into a deluge, flooding towards him.

Its about time!

w.a.n.g Guiwu murmured, his eyes widening abruptly. It was as if a flash of lightning pa.s.sed through his eyes, and a faint purple inner energy spread all around him, resembling a celestial thunderbolt.

In the next moment, w.a.n.g Guiwu lifted his sword high into the air. The lightning on the swords blade shattered the oncoming rain of swords in one swing. The trajectory of his blade brought w.a.n.g Guiwu directly in front of Miao Manyun, and the blade thrust straight towards her throat.

Ah!

In the next moment, w.a.n.g Guiwu raised his sword high, and the lightning on the blade shattered the incoming rain of swords with a single swing. The blade pointed directly at Miao Manyuns throat as w.a.n.g Guiwu appeared before her.

All!

In the area of the Sunken Water Pavilion, quite a few disciples stood up in astonishment at the scene before them. Just a moment ago, Miao Manyun clearly had the upper hand, and it seemed like w.a.n.g Guiwu was about to be defeated by her. Yet, in the blink of an eye, the situation had completely changed.

Not only the disciples of the Sunken Water Pavilion, but also many disciples from various sects had similar reactions. Especially the disciples from smaller sects who had previously criticized w.a.n.g Guiwu for his overconfidence, now found the situation flipped around.

Sword Vortex!

As Miao Manyun watched the approaching sword blades, it was as if she had antic.i.p.ated this. She twirled her soft sword, gathering the shattered sword energy that w.a.n.g Guiwu had disrupted. These fragments formed a tornado, enveloping w.a.n.g Guiwu.

Boom!

The intense collision resounded as w.a.n.g Guiwus sword directly tore apart Miao Manyuns Sword Vortex. Miao Manyun barely managed to defend with her soft sword, but the next moment, she felt a sharp pain in her chest. She was sent flying out of the sparring stage.

Spurt!

A mist of blood sprayed out, and Miao Manyuns chest had caved in. The forceful thunderous sword energy had violently stirred her internal organs, leaving her powerless to continue the fight.

w.a.n.g Guiwu sheathed his sword, a smile appearing on his facean expression of someone who was in complete control.

Miao Manyun was carried back to the platform by the elders of the Sunken Water Pavilion, and many people quickly crowded around her. Xiao Liling looked at Miao Manyuns injuries and clenched her fists slightly. She took a deep breath, slowly releasing her fists.

Disciples from various sects engaged in discussions, puzzled by how Miao Manyun, who had been in a favorable position just moments ago, had suddenly lost so quickly and sustained such severe injuries.

w.a.n.g Senior Brother has excellent sword techniques. Allow me to learn from you as well!

Within the Long Rainbow Sect, a figure leaped out and stood before w.a.n.g

Guiwu.

Straight as an arrow, just like the long spear standing beside it, exuding a chilling aura that pervaded the surroundings.

Tang Renfei, the second-ranked true disciple of the Long Rainbow Sect.

Of course!

w.a.n.g Guiwu didnt ask for the persons name, merely giving a slight bow in response.

Please!

Tang Renfeis voice was deep. In the next instant, he advanced towards w.a.n.g Guiwu, the tip of his long spear aimed at vital points around w.a.n.g Guiwus body.

The Venomous Dragon Spear Techniquespear thrusts like a venomous dragon. The sound of the long spear cutting through the air resembled the roar of a venomous dragon, causing ones senses to sway. However, w.a.n.g Guiwu remained entirely unaffected. Amidst the lightning, the collision of his sword blade and the long spear took place directly, and neither of them gave an inch.

w.a.n.g Guiwu hadnt consumed any pills to recover his strength moments ago. Now that Tang Renfei had taken the field, it felt somewhat like an endurance battle. But w.a.n.g Guiwu himself didnt mind, and others naturally wouldnt make any complaints.

As everyone watched the two on the sparring stage at this moment, they were reminded of the duel between w.a.n.g Guiwu and Miao Manyun in some hazy way..
