who felt she knew Li Fuchen well enough.
She originally thought that this was going to be a tough battle. Who would have expected to end in an instant?
Li Fuchen's sword art seemed to have reached the transcending stage and could even neutralize divine abilities in one sword.
"Great job, Li Fuchen!" Meng Chihang slapped his thigh and cheered loudly.
Different cultivators of the Green Sun Sword Intent would produce different results.
Li Fuchen's Green Sun Sword Intent was undoubtedly flawless and perfected. It could be used in all kinds of battles.
Meng Chihang might have also cultivated two earth class high-tier sword arts, but in terms of quality, it might not be superior to Li Fuchen's Green Sun Sword Intent.
"This child is probably comparable to the Red Rainbow Sect's king-class disciples. The only thing he is lacking is his foundation." Lin Zhubai praised.
Apart from the outer sect disciples, inner sect disciples, and direct disciples of the Red Rainbow Sect, there were king-class disciples that stood above all three.
King-class disciples could be at the Reincarnation Realm or the Battle Spirit Realm. It was unrelated to cultivation level and combat strength within the same realm.
Every king-class disciple would be nurtured by the Red Rainbow Sect as future Primary Sea Realm monarchs. The resources they were provided with were considerably high.
"Such strength. No wonder Li Fuchen is chosen by the Dean to be his in-room cadet. Li Fuchen's innate potential isn't inferior to Wang Heilong at all and his perception is superior to Wang Heilong."
"You people still don't know? When Li Fuchen was in the outer institute, he defeated Wang Heilong and became the no.1 listed cadet of the outer institute. He is probably aiming for the no.1 spot on the Power Rankings."
"No.1 listed cadet huh? How can it be comparable to no.1 of the Power Ranking? But he does have the strength to compete for the no.1 spot of the Power Rankings."
Everyone was in discussion as they were astonished by Li Fuchen's strength.
At the later phase of the battle, Wang Heilong was first to encounter Situ Tao.
After being defeated by Li Fuchen, Wang Heilong didn't collapse from the setback.
He always had a tenacious and indomitable personality. Every defeat would only make him more diligent and more assiduous.
He never felt that he was the no.1 expert in the world. But he strongly believed that he would be the no.1 expert in the future.
When the Darkness Sky Canopy was executed, a dome-like darkness power enveloped Wang Heilong and Situ Tao.
But Li Fuchen could see that Situ Tao wasn't apprehensive and was very calm.
"I wonder what kind of soft water divine ability did Situ Tao awakened?"
Li Fuchen was very interested in all kinds of divine abilities.
Divine abilities were like martial arts that could be constantly upgraded. There were plenty of skills of law that could be sensed from within.
In the darkness, Wang Heilong felt rather uneasy as he couldn't see any anxiety on Situ Tao's face.
Without any sound and presence, Wang Heilong approached Situ Tao.
But right at his moment, Situ Tao started to burst out with his divine ability.
When contesting against Wang Heilong's Darkness Sky Canopy, those that had similar cultivation realm must burst out with their divine ability, with the exception of Li Fuchen.
The sound of waves crashing could be heard as boundless moisture started to emerge.
Bang!
Wang Heilong launched a fist to test the power and was immediately repelled by a massive dragon's head.
"Break!"
Wang Heilong wasn't convinced and launched out a cluster of fist shadows that enveloped Situ Tao's entire body.
Bang Bang Bang Bang…
Vigorous and forceful power revolved around Situ Tao to repel all of Wang Heilong's attacks. The repulsion force had sent Wang Heilong flying and vomiting a mouthful of fresh blood.
Within Wang Heilong's vision, a water dragon appeared beside Situ Tao and was constantly circling his body.
Soft water divine ability… Roaming Water Dragon.
"What a great soft water divine ability that can attack and defend at the same time." Lin Zhubai silently praised.
With this soft water divine ability, Situ Tao had been undefeated. Unless Wang Heilong could break through the divine ability to injure Situ Tao, things would remain like this if Situ Tao didn't counterattack.
"This divine ability isn't simple."
Li Fuchen's awareness had permeated into the Darkness Sky Canopy, thus, he was able to clearly see the scene when Wang Heilong launched his assault on Situ Tao.
Wang Heilong's fist art was very concentrated and logically, it should be able to break through the water dragon.
But every time Wang Heilong's fists were approaching Situ Tao's body, the water dragon would respond and immediately roam around to repel Wang Heilong's fists.
"Water is able to congeal and scatter at will. A place that might seem weak could change immediately with a slight action."
Li Fuchen couldn't help but think of the water's specialty.
Wang Heilong continued the attack, this time, he attacked from far away. By doing so, even if the water dragon's repulsion force was overwhelming, it would still be hard to injure him.
"Is this all you've got?"
Situ Tao spoke softly. The water dragon that roaming around his body had suddenly enlarged. It had swelled from the size of a thigh to the size of a water jar before reaching the size of a house.
Boom Boom Boom…
Even with the isolation of the Darkness Sky Canopy, a muffled sound could still be heard.
Li Fuchen shook his head. Wang Heilong's Darkness Sky Canopy was formidable but it was still not fully matured. If Wang Heilong was able to comprehend more of the darkness bone frame pattern, he might be able to defeat Situ Tao.
Right now, he wasn't a match for Situ Tao.
Situ Tao's soft water bone frame pattern's comprehension was obviously higher.
The Darkness Sky Canopy had collapsed as the thick water dragon seemed like it was going to destroy the world. Wang Heilong was sent off the stage while violently vomiting fresh blood.
"Both are divine abilities, but Situ Tao's soft water divine ability is still overwhelming."
Everyone could see that Situ Tao's divine ability was superior to Wang Heilong and wasn't too surprised.
No matter what, Situ Tao had risen to fame for a long time and had awakened the soft water divine ability long ago. It was natural for him to defeat Wang Heilong.
"It turns out that I am only this capable."
Below the stage, Wang Heilong had a pale expression as his spirit had waned.
But soon enough, in the depths of his eyes, there was a black flame that was burning as his fighting spirit was blazing again.
His growth would only be meaningful with powerful opponents. If the opponents were too weak and were easily defeated, it would be meaningless.
Meng Chihang saw all the subtle changes in Wang Heilong's expression and nodded silently.
A true prodigy didn't just need superior innate potential, the temperament must also be superior.
Finally, the battle for the spot of the seeded contestant had started.
Among the ten contestants, only Situ Tao and Li Fuchen had yet to suffer a defeat.
Whoever won this match would be the seeded contestant and also the no.1 cadet of the Power Rankings.
"Senior Situ Tao, apologies."
Li Fuchen could see that Situ Tao's regular strength was also very formidable and was at least one level stronger than Gu Heng.
"Junior Fuchen, please."
Situ Tao knew that his cultivation was stronger, hence, he didn't execute his divine ability immediately.
"Be careful now." Li Fuchen drew his Scarlet Blood Sword and shot out sword lights.
"Sealing Water Palm Art."
Situ Tao's palm art was the earth class mid-tier Sealing Water Palm Art. This palm art was just like his soft water divine ability and could be used for both offense and defense. There were no flaws.
When Situ Tao executed the Sealing Water Palm Art, the forceful palm intent was released. Due to the excessively powerful palm intent, it produced a field power that had extreme restraints.
Intent and field power were closely related. Powerful intents could produce powerful field power, hence, the stronger the intent, the stronger the field power. The field power could be considered as the display of strength of the intent.
Earth class martial arts would have field power after reaching the sub-perfection stage, but the intent would be very disorganized and wouldn't be considered powerful. The intent would only be concentrated after the martial art reached the trance stage and would be considered true field power.
The so-called intent was actually a manifestation of martial dao law, while the martial dao law was produced by the great dao law.
It was all interconnected and would mutually affect one another.
Situ Tao's Sealing Water Palm Art had reached the trance stage, hence, the palm intent and the field power was so powerful.
When Situ Tao executed his palm strike, the air on the stage seemed to turn into a raging wave on a lake. It was constantly pressuring Li Fuchen's space to survive.
But it wasn't effective as Li Fuchen's sword intent was much stronger than Situ Tao's palm intent. Li Fuchen's field power might not be released, but he could still penetrate Situ Tao's field power with ease and without being affected.
Pfff!
Fresh blood sprayed out as the flawless Sealing Water Palm Art was instantly broken through. Situ Tao's shoulder had a wound that was newly sliced open.
"Roaming Water Dragon!"
Situ Tao's expression changed. He had still underestimated the terror of an earth class high-tier sword art. Without a choice, he had to use the Roaming Water Dragon.
The massive water dragon was revolving his body and Situ Tao's qi presence was rising endlessly. The intense moisture had made all the audience felt the humidity that made them uncomfortable.
"Great divine ability." Li Fuchen smiled.
Li Fuchen had a feeling if he burst out with his Heart of Blazing Flame, he would be able completely evaporate Situ Tao's Roaming Water Dragon and left no drop of water behind.
It was a pity that Situ Tao's strength wasn't enough for Li Fuchen to use his trump card.
"Senior. Be careful."
With the shake of his wrist, a similarly massive sword qi pillar was blasted out.
"Come on then."
Situ Tao controlled the water dragon to confront the sword qi pillar.
The void was shaking and the stage was starting to crack.
The water dragon that contained the divine ability pattern was tough and forceful. It was able to block the sword qi pillar, but it was unable to push back.
"Break!"
The water dragon swelled up and turned into the size of a house. With a twist of the right hand, Situ Tao's water dragon rotated and wanted to shatter the sword qi pillar.
"Senior, you are unable to deal with my Green Sun Sword Intent. I shall let you witness what is the true Green Sun Sword Intent."
Li Fuchen laughed and raised his Scarlet Blood Sword to swing down again.
There wasn't a loud sound but there was an extremely dazzling radiance. It felt as though Li Fuchen didn't execute his sword art but blasted out a sun.
The intense green radiance destroyed and melted everything.
Pfff!
The water dragon was evaporated and Situ Tao's body was charred while he flew off the stage and vomited fresh blood.
The Green Sun Sword Intent that reached the trance stage was almost the same as a divine ability and it was a divine ability with extremely burst power. Not even Situ Tao's Roaming Water Dragon was comparable.
There might be a day when Situ Tao's Roaming Water Dragon would surpass the Green Sun Sword Intent, but not now.
"He reached the top?"
Everyone in the audience were stunned and speechless.
Divine abilities were supposed to be invincible but Li Fuchen had broken that rule.
He didn't use any divine ability and was still undefeated.
"Good. Li Fuchen, you are not my South Forest Martial Insitution's seeded contestant. During the 24 Martia Institutions Rankings Tournament, you don't have to participate in the early phase of the tournament and will immediately enter the promotion finals. Furthermore, you will be qualified to enter the Red Rainbow Sect and become an outer sect disciple." Lin Zhubai stood up and announced.
Everyone was in a commotion.
A seeded contestant could directly become an outer sect disciple of the Red Rainbow Sect? This was entirely different as compared to before!
