Chapter 114: Fighting for First Place (Second Update)

  No matter what, a new generation of top ten inner door disciples was born successfully, and the previous one has become a thing of the past.

  This generation's most eye-catching ones are undoubtedly Li Yun, Tie Feng and Ye Chen. The three of them stood out from hundreds of inner door disciples, overcoming obstacles and defeating powerful opponents one by one, each displaying their unique skills. In the end, they even defeated several of the top ten inner door disciples from the previous generation, their strength astonishing.

  And among the three, Ye Chen was the most talented and stunning. With only his cultivation at the mid-Peak of the Congenital Realm, he won battle after battle, never suffering a single defeat. Moreover, he had even grasped the Half-Step Sword Intent that the Sword Guest had been dreaming of, his comprehension ability was extremely high, surpassing all the young generation of the Flowing Cloud Sect, and his prestige directly rivaled that of the core disciples.

  Of course, becoming one of the top ten disciples of the inner sect is not enough, next is the ranking competition.

  The ranking match seems complicated, but it's actually simple. It's just a one-on-one match with the other nine people, and the ranking is still based on points. As for those who have already played before, they will be ranked according to their win or loss situation. For example, Ye Chen has won against Feng Ping, Dong Haohua, and Tie Feng, and currently has six points, but he still needs to play against the other six people, including Xueying Dao Meng Chong.

  This time, the high-level Liuyun Sect specially prepared more than 500 Jingyuan Dan. Each participating disciple can take one. After taking the Jingyuan Dan, not only will their energy and physical strength be abundant, but also minor injuries that are not too serious can be quickly healed.

  After resting for about half a watch, the Great Elder saw that all ten people were in high spirits and full of energy, so he announced the start of the ranking competition.

  Ye Chen's first opponent was Cai Jian Qiuruo, but the other party admitted defeat, after all Ye Chen's strength is obvious to everyone, and it's really not necessary to waste time.

  The second opponent was Pei Shaoqing, who also admitted defeat.

  The third opponent is Zhou Ruojin, also known as Peach Blossom Hand.

  "Although there's little hope, I still want to exchange blows with you." The peach-blossom-like Zhou Ruofei floated gently onto the stage.

  Ye Chen nodded, "Let's begin!"

  Crack!

  At the beginning, Zhou Ru immediately exerted his full strength, and a peach-red true energy burst out from all over his body, attacking Ye Chen with a thunderous momentum. Compared to his previous light and casual fighting style, this was a huge departure. Before his palm energy had even been released, the stone pillar behind Ye Chen had already shattered into pieces.

  "Good tyrannical palm strength." A strange color flashed in Ye Chen's eyes, his hand didn't slow down at all, and a sword with half-step sword intent slashed out.

  Bang!

  Under the influence of Half-Step Sword Intent, Ye Chen's attack was extremely condensed, and with one strike, he broke through Zhou Ruo's palm strength, bursting forth in an instant.

  Zhou Ruofei waved her hand in front of her and spread a layer of pink mist, and the whole person was blown out.

  Ye Chen closely followed up and struck out with another sword.

  Zhou Ru gritted her teeth, "If this move still can't defeat you, I'll admit defeat."

  As he spoke, Zhou Ruo's hands quickly formed a seal, and wave after wave of true energy frantically condensed within, finally transforming into a peach-red true energy great bird. The bird spread its wings, like a red lightning bolt flashing out, impossible to capture with the naked eye.

  "So fast! I didn't expect Zhou Ruoshi to have a hidden ultimate move as well." The inner sect disciples who were watching the battle exclaimed in surprise.

  Tie Shanzi let out a bitter smile, and his opponent had not used this move when they fought before. Of course, he himself also had an ultimate move that he hadn't used yet, and the other party should have known something about it.

  The true energy of the great bird blinks and arrives, its gaze is about to hit Ye Chen.

  Ye Chen's expression was calm and serene, others couldn't catch the trajectory of the true energy great bird, but he could, thanks to his powerful soul force.

  A silver thread flashed across the void.

  Ye Chen's Cloud Concealment Sword pointed at the weakest spot of the True Energy Great Bird, instantly making it extremely unstable. With a "poof" sound, it vanished into thin air.

  Zhou's swordsmanship shocked Ye Chen, the speed of Qing Niao Yin's attack was so fast, but he was able to hit it with one sword and even hit its only weak point, what kind of insight and control is this!

  With a wry smile, Zhou Ruo said: "I have no choice but to admit it, only you can rival Meng Chong, I lost!"

  The next game is not Ye Chen's, but Li Yun's. After all, consecutive games are very energy-consuming and have a great impact on the battle. Moreover, Ye Chen's next opponent is Xiao Ye, and the other side will definitely not admit defeat automatically, so it's inevitable to go through a 'tough battle'.

  Qiu Ruo Tong knew in her heart that she was no match for any of the ten people, and still admitted defeat.

  Pei Shaqing and Li Yun started fighting.

  After dozens of moves, Li Yun displayed the ultimate skill of sword light splitting, shooting out 14 sword lights in a row. One of the sword lights had two layers of power, one bright and one dark, which surprisingly defeated Pei Shaoying without any danger.

  Then comes the battle between Tie Feng and Yi Qing.

  The two men were evenly matched, exchanging over a hundred moves without gaining the upper hand. However, as the battle wore on, Tie Feng's momentum grew stronger, his leg strength increasing with each passing moment. Despite Easy Qing's repeated attempts to turn the tide with his ultimate techniques, he was ultimately unable to recover and was forced to concede defeat, for if they continued fighting, his loss would be certain.

  One game after another started and ended.

  Soon it was Blood Shadow Blade Mong's turn, his opponent was Li Yun.

  Li Yun didn't say any nonsense and directly took action, shaking his hand and releasing fourteen sword lights.

  "Explode!"

  Meng charged forward with his knife, the blood-red blade edge unstoppable, easily shattering the impact of the sword light. As for that one bright and dark sword light, it was directly shattered by his one punch.

  Li Yun let out a loud shout and another three sword lights shot out.

  These three sword lights were truly enormous, almost covering half of the platform, forming a "pin" shape as they slashed towards Meng Chong with an electric speed.

  Meng Chong didn't dare to slack off, and a blood-red glow burst out from his arms, surging into the long knife. Three consecutive slashes broke through the sword light's impact, followed by a fist that struck Li Yun's protective true energy in mid-air.

  Crackling and popping!

  A blood-red lightning flashed, and Li Yun's mouth corner oozed out a thread of blood, shaking down the platform.

  "Montgomery's Thunderbolt Fist is getting more and more formidable." Yi Qing thought to himself as he watched this scene.

  Meng Chong steps down, Ye Chen and Xiao Ye take over.

  "Want to challenge Mong Chong? First, get past me." Xiao Ye's body arched forward, a pale blue-green light flashing, two enormous true energy arms extending from his shoulders, one blue and one green. The blue was slightly illusory, while the green had wisps of air rising from it, like flames burning.

  Like a giant, Xiao Ye took big strides towards Ye Chen and punched him with a loud crash.

  "Lawless tyranny!"

  Contrary to everyone's expectations, Ye Chen did not counter with his sword skills. His left hand clenched into a fist, and a black glow flashed as he threw a punch forward.

  Pffft!

  Under Xiao Ye's incredulous gaze, the cyan True Qi on his arm shattered inch by inch, transforming into the purest Yuan Qi that merged into the air and vanished without a trace.

  "Give me defeat!"

  Xiao Ye didn't retreat or yield, his left shoulder bursting forth with an even more powerful green true energy arm, striking straight at Ye Chen.

  Ye Chen let out a cold laugh, "Dominating one side!"

  Rumble!

  A fist of black light flashed out, the airflow behind was rolled in, like a iron peak's momentum, it heavily collided with Xiao Ye's green true energy arm.

  Tap tap tap......

  Xiao Ye retreated over a dozen steps, the green aura on his arm showing signs of collapse. He was truly shocked in his heart, knowing that the green aura arm was an upgraded version of the cyan aura arm, with power increased by at least 50%, yet it couldn't withstand the opponent's direct and straightforward punch. How could he continue to fight like this?

  The green true energy merged into his arm, Xiao Ye waved his hand and said, "No more fighting, you're too strong." After that, he turned around and walked down from the stage.
