Chapter Thirty-Five: The Three Great Masters

  This day slept for four days, got up when the sky was already dark, hastily ate a little food, and then plunged into the world again.

  The final stage of the martial arts tournament is about to begin, and the remaining 11 players will still compete in a single-elimination format. This means that one more player will be eliminated, with the system deciding who based on the total time used during the preliminary round. Yi Jian Chong Tian, also known as One Sword to the Sky, had finished several rounds without using up all his time in the preliminaries - how could it not be him?

  Feng Xiao Xiao and the others naturally went to watch Lao Da's match. Lao Da's opponent in the first round was called Long Yan, who was the owner of Xiyu Jian, currently ranked fourth in the Arms Spectrum. However, according to rumors, this guy wasn't impressive except for his high level, and he had only made it into the Arms Spectrum through connections. This rumor naturally came from Wan Shi Tong.

  The number of people watching the final was much larger. The official homepage announced the list of 11 people who entered the finals, and those who wanted to watch bought tickets and wrote their names on them.

  The game entered the countdown phase, and Jupao Pan shouted loudly from the stands: "Boss, get him, he's trash!" Unfortunately, his shout was too obscure, and everyone didn't know who he was cheering for downstairs.

  The match began, and the old man launched a fierce attack as usual. He jumped up and swung his sword in a move called "Dragon Soaring Through the Sky", aiming at Long Yan's shoulder. Long Yan, of course, was not as incompetent as Wan Shi Tong had said. With a swift turn of his body, the sword swept past him from the front.

  The old man's heart skipped a beat, and with Longyan's flash, he knew that his dodge was not low, and people who dodged high would not be slow to counterattack. Sure enough, Longyan's counterattack was as fast as lightning, and the old man couldn't even dodge in time, taking the hit!

  The scene erupted in a chorus of gasps, and on this side, Xiao Yao let out a ghostly cry: "Mount Hua Swordsmanship!" The crowd looked at him with disdain, thinking that Mount Hua Swordsmanship was practiced by countless people, what's so special about it?!

  The scene below Longyan's move is like a tight one, the old big knife takes the defensive stance, and the game is conducted with one side falling to the ground. On the stage, Xiao Yao pointed at Longyan's Huashan swordsmanship, saying this move is "Wild Horse Galloping", that move is "Cypress Welcoming Guests", spitting flying, forgetting he came as a cheerleader rather than a commentator.

  Lao Da's knife technique is called the Heavenly Movement Knife Technique, which literally means that all his moves are in mid-air. Now, he can barely stand upright, let alone fly through the air. On the other hand, Long Yan is fighting with ease and gradually getting excited, forgetting that this is a competition. He only wants to show off a few beautiful moves for everyone to see. With just a light touch, he floats up like a cloud, his sword slicing through the air as he makes a quick and agile turn. The commentator in the audience seats, Xiao Yao, did not disappoint and shouted out the name of this move: "Surprise Goose's Glimpse!" The crowd cheered in unison.

  Long Yan's performance gave Lao Da an opportunity, gritting his teeth and stomping his foot, he flew up and used the signature move of his Tian Xing Knife Technique, "Tian Ma Xing Kong", using his inner strength to slash at Long Yan in mid-air!

  Longyan is still indulging in his own performance, completely trapped in a state of self-love, caught off guard, and was instantly killed on the spot!

  The whole scene was in an uproar, and the dragon rock's move that had been dominating the game ended up being the decisive factor, completely beyond everyone's expectations. The old master only made two moves throughout the entire game, with the first move considered a probing attack and the second move seen as a waiting-for-the-right-moment-to-strike move. Titles such as "the coldest hunter" and "one-hit kill" spread rapidly online. Afterwards, according to the old master himself, whenever he saw people online wildly praising his performance in this match, he would sneakily look around to see if anyone was watching him.

  The first round of eliminations, apart from Lao Da, also includes Tie Qi with the Panlong spear, Qi Xiao Shan with the Seven Tricks fan, and two swordsmen, Fei Yun and Shi Shou Xi, who wield ordinary top-grade swords that are not listed in the Arms Spectrum. The six of them will proceed to the second round.

  The second round is about to begin, and Feng Xiao Xiao expressed her support for Lao Da before running off to watch the One Sword Against The Sky competition. Having known him for so long, he's touted as the number one master of Jianghu, yet she's never seen him in action - this time, she'll finally get to see his true abilities.

  An opponent who charges to the sky is where I come from, and the audience can only describe it with one word.

  One sword soaring into the sky, still elegant and unrestrained, but ever since he made a mistake while drinking and later fell from the teahouse window, his image in my heart has been greatly discounted.

  The match began quickly, and I swung my Seven Trick Fan from where I came from, charging forward with a sword. The cold light flashed, and the sword was already in hand. With another shake of the hand, it suddenly turned into seven swords, like a magic trick. Only then did Feng Xiao Xiao understand why they were called the Seven Extremes, not the Five Extremes or Six Extremes.

  One sword charging the sky swung its hand, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, a total of six swords flew out in a hurry. I made an emergency brake from somewhere and stopped to defend against these swords. At this time, One Sword Charging the Sky was like a Taoist priest praying for rain, holding the seventh sword on one side and waving it, only lacking incantations coming out of his mouth.

  Torture, this battle is torture. I was surrounded by six swords from all sides, and just as I was about to catch my breath, I was slashed again, without even a moment to take medicine.

  At the moment when the six swords were flying up and down, and everyone was dizzy, one sword rushed to the sky and the person also rushed up, holding the sword in his hand. The six swords merged into one, and reunited with the sword in his hand. One sword rushed to the sky, holding a sword in both hands like an axe, chopping down with one sword. Just as I had let out a breath of relief, a white light flashed by, and I didn't know where it went.

  One sword rushes to the sky and wins easily.

  However, the image in his heart was discounted again because those six flying swords looked very much like the hidden weapons that Feng Xiao Xiao hated the most right now!

  Of course, this can't be said, but I'll send a message to Jiān Chōng Tiān: Awesome, today I finally saw the power of the Seven Extremes Whirlwind Sword.

  One Sword Soars to Heaven: Haha, this was originally a secret too, but now everyone in the martial arts world is going to know!

  The wind whispers secrets in my ear!

  Going back to inquire about the old man's match, it was learned that the old man lost to Tie Qi of Panlong Gun. The two had the same fighting style, but Tie Qi's level was slightly higher, and his overall strength was slightly better than the old man's, so the result of the match could be said to be a normal outcome under normal circumstances.

  The third match also ended, and Shixiwash defeated Feiyun. Shixiwash is from the Tianshan Sect, and was praised by his fellow Tianshan Sect member Wanshitong, who said things like "One sword to bring down Tianshan" and "One sword arrives from the east, Tianshan flying fairy"... Many posts online were made by Wanshitong himself, but unfortunately they still didn't change his usual style, which was quite pale and weak. The adjectives used were mostly "awesome", "especially awesome", "very awesome", "super awesome", "extremely awesome", and other combinations centered around "awesome".

  The crowd was eagerly waiting for the three masters to compete, when the system suddenly announced that this martial arts conference has come to an end. One Sword to the Sky, Iron Flag, and Release Hand Washing are now recognized as the top three masters of the Jianghu! The system will reward these three individuals. Thank you players for your participation and support!

  Although the players were not reconciled, they could only accept this decision. The system's decision was naturally unchangeable, but the players also did not dare to coerce the three of them to continue competing with each other. After all, they were the three great masters, who dared to give orders?

  The first Wulin Conference, organized by the official for the first time, came to a close. Some people who had been unknown until now became famous in the martial arts conference, and Lao Da was of course one of them. Some legendary martial arts were finally revealed to the public, with the Seven Absolute Wind Sword being the most notable. And Shi Shou Xian, one of the three great masters, made everyone understand that equipment is not everything! And Yi Jian Chong Tian has truly stepped down from his pedestal as the number one person in Jianghu, and now it's an era where the three great masters are on par with each other!
