Chapter 56: Prove Yourself
wielded the battle sword in his hand, streaks of blade light slashing out one after another. Though he deliberately suppressed his cultivation, only using power comparable to the threshold of the Void..."Defeated"
"Is that it"
Just one face, only with a single sword
In the venue, hundreds of thousands of spectators were stunned and speechless.
Although I knew beforehand that this battle held no suspense.
Sithu Yu couldn't possibly be Su Xin's match, even if Sithu Yu was hiding some of his strength.
No one expected that Situ Yu would lose so quickly and unexpectedly.
It's just one sword.
Yet Su Xin still directly charged over, slashing down with a sword.
That Situ Yu uses a heavy sword, and is most skilled at the collision of might.
Directly confronting him head-on, hitting at Si Tu Yu's strongest point, he still lost so miserably. Remember the URL
"The gap is too big!"
In terms of both power and sword intent, they are not on the same level at all.
“This Situ Yu, is hiding some strength, and with good luck, there's a chance he could break into the top ten hunters. But this Su Xin, without breaking through his cultivation, he was already a top ten combatant. This breakthrough absolutely puts him in the top three hunters this time. Besides the strongest Xia Mang, I don't think anyone else this hunting season can rival him!”
Too strong.
Countless people exclaimed in amazement.
Countless people were impressed by Su Xin's revealed absolute strength.
And now, thinking back to Su Xin's absence three years ago...
"Not fighting and running away Humph, with such terrifying power, it should be that Si Tu Yu who doesn't fight and runs away!"
"It is said that Su Xin has been imprisoned in the Demon Prison for three years. That means he has been delayed for three more years, but even so, he can easily defeat Situ Yu. Such a powerful person, how could he possibly run away"
There must have been other reasons for missing that game three years ago.
"Yes, before I didn't see Su Xin's strength. Saying he was afraid of battle, I could also believe it, but now, even if I died, I wouldn't believe that Su Xin would be afraid to fight against An Situbo."
A large crowd was talking excitedly.
Su Xin still stood in the center of the battlefield. He also heard the discussions from the audience around him, and couldn't help but clench his hands.
Three years ago, he was imprisoned in the Demon Prison, burdened by a stigma.
Because of the special nature of his bloodline, he was unable to argue or explain at all.
But today...
No argument, no explanation.
He doesn't need to explain!
He proved himself with a single sword.
This sword strike has completely washed away his disgrace.
From now on, no one will ever mention his "flight from battle" three years ago. Even if they do, they will only say that he must have had some special reason for not fighting.
His strength was absolutely, utterly superior to that of Situ Yu.
……
This final hunt's unveiling battle, was merely a facade. Su Xin only wielded one sword strike, and it brought everything to an end.
The purple-haired elder who led the hunt stepped forward to examine Situ Yu's injuries. Although Situ Yu was seriously injured, his life was not in danger, and Su Xin naturally did not violate the hunting rules.
After the result of Su Xin's victory was announced, Su Xin also retreated outside the battleground.
This hunt, continues.
On the high platform at the front of the venue, the two palace masters of Tianyan Palace sat side by side, having witnessed the just-concluded battle.
"Qingyang, did you see that swordsmanship Su Xin just used" The Palace Master of Diyue asked.
"Um, Qingyang Palace Master nodded. 'The Thunderfire Scroll of Beicang Swordsmanship, although it didn't display any secret techniques, just from the sword stance alone, one can see that he has already mastered it to a great extent.'"
When he said this, the head of Qingyang Palace had a somewhat gloomy expression on his face.
The battle between Su Xin and Situ Yu was too brief, only a single clash. As soon as they met, Situ Yu was struck back and flew away. Because of this, the vast majority of people present, including some powerful figures from sects and factions, did not have time to see the intricacies of the fight. However, as the Palace Master of Heavenly Flame Palace...
Even at such a high level of power, masters of the Nirvana Realm, they recognized them instantly.
"The Thunderfire Scroll had reached its peak, and it was obvious that he had been at this level for some time. Unlike the Shanhai Scroll, which had only just broken through to the Grand Perfection stage a few days ago during the second stage of the hunt, "
"Qingyang, you should know what this means.
The Lord of the Imperial Moon Palace looked over at the Lord of Qingyang Palace.
"This is the Northern Azure Sword Technique. The origin of this sword technique, you're well aware of it."
"The Northern Azure Sword Art consists of three volumes. To master any one volume to its fullest potential is exceptionally difficult. Many powerful swordsmen, throughout their entire lives, are unable to master even one volume to its greatest extent."
And this Su Xin, but at the same time mastered both Lei Huo Juan and Shan Hai Juan to great perfection, and he was only a mere Sea Transformation Realm...
"There is no doubt that Su Xin is a true swordsmanship prodigy. His talent in swordsmanship far exceeds our imagination. Our Tianyan Palace has existed in the Tianyan Imperial Dynasty for so long, absorbing countless prodigies. In terms of swordsmanship talent alone, he can definitely rank in the top three!"
The head of Qingyang Palace also looked very serious.
Heavenly Inferno Palace, existing since the founding of the Heavenly Inferno Dynasty over a thousand years ago. How many geniuses has Heavenly Inferno Palace absorbed throughout its history
The royal hunting grounds only open once every five years, and it always attracts ten talented individuals. Plus, there are special invitations given to exceptionally gifted prodigies... Over a thousand years, countless talented people have participated.
Among so many geniuses, there will naturally be some incredibly terrifyingly talented individuals.
However, the Palace Master of Diyue Palace said that Su Xin's talent in swordsmanship, even among the countless geniuses who had been absorbed by Tianyan Palace, could be ranked in the top three!
What a high praise this is!
Even this evaluation, Qingyang Palace Master cannot refute.
A cultivator who has mastered both thunder and fire, as well as the power of mountains and seas to a great extent. This swordsmanship talent is too outrageous!
"Emperor Moon, what do you want to say" Qingyang Palace Master looked over.
“All I want to tell you is that a super genius like Su Xin in the swordsmanship world, our Tianyan Palace will definitely spare no expense to cultivate him. His future achievements will certainly not be low. Before, you strongly opposed Su Xin entering the Tianyan Palace, and I won't ask about the specific reasons anymore. But from now on, I hope you can still do your duty as the head of the Emperor Moon Palace.”
Her words now had a hint of warning in them.
Before, Su Xin had not truly joined Tianyan Palace, so she could afford to be indifferent.
Now that she could see Su Xin's abilities firsthand, especially her terrifying swordsmanship talent, she had already decided that Su Xin would definitely become one of the most outstanding disciples of Tianyan Palace in this generation, and her future prospects were limitless.
Of course, she would no longer allow the Palace Master of Qingyang to run amok.
"Hmph, how I conduct myself is none of your concern. " The master of Qingyang Palace snorted coldly.
The Palace Master of Emperor Moon Palace did not say anything more.
On the battlefield, one genius after another stepped forward, beginning one-on-one combat.
The winner can proceed to the next round, while the loser is eliminated.
Soon, thirty-six geniuses had already fought most of the battles.
"Duan Yunfeng, not bad! Su Xin smiled at Duan Yunfeng as he walked off the battleground. He looked clean and neat."
Just now was a showdown between Duan Yunfeng and a genius.
That genius had previously been considered eligible to challenge the top twenty, but in front of Duan Yunfeng, he only lasted for a moment before being cleanly and decisively defeated.
Duan Yunfeng didn't even use any of his secret techniques.
“My opponent wasn’t very strong to begin with, and he didn’t have any hidden tricks. It was natural for me to defeat him. To say it was clean and decisive, you defeating that Situ Yu before was the truly clean and decisive victory,” Yunfeng said.
Su Xin couldn't help but smile.
Then the Great Master Wuchao should also make a move, right Duan Yunfeng said.
"Well, next is him," Su Xin nodded, his expression becoming solemn.
Wu Chao, was definitely one of the most important opponents he cared about in this hunt.
So far, including during the second stage hunt, this Wu Chao hasn't shown his true strength. Su Xin naturally also wanted to see if he would reveal some of his trump cards when facing other geniuses.
Su Xin and Duan Yunfeng both stared intently.
On the battlefield, the monk Wu Chao, with a rosary around his neck and bare feet, was still smiling, standing there.
As for his opponent, he is also a genius recognized by the Chi Long Lou as eligible to challenge the top twenty. His strength is also quite impressive.
But if he doesn't have hidden great strength or means, this genius in the hands of Wu Chao is afraid that he won't be able to withstand a few moves.
However, what no one expected was...
As soon as the old man with purple hair announced the start of the competition, this great monk Wuchao immediately spoke up, "I concede!"
Without any warning, Wu Chao directly conceded defeat.
This scene not only stunned his opponent, but also left everyone present utterly astonished.
Aren't you giving up before the fight even begins
"What's going on" Su Xin frowned.
Duan Yunfeng on the side also had an equally astonished expression.
This was terrifying and monstrous in his eyes, still sending chills down his spine to this day. He was afraid that the next monster he faced in battle would simply surrender
Tianyan the Emperor, seated high on the platform above, also slightly furrowed his brows.
"Check with Heavenly Flame Emperor," he said.
Someone immediately went to check.
Soon, a palace attendant hurried over and presented a piece of intelligence to the Heavenly Flame Emperor.
The Heavenly Flame Emperor glanced briefly over the information on the intelligence report.
"Who is the genius to the east"
"Isn't this a joke"
Tian Yan Huangzhu said unhappily, then waved his hand, no longer pursuing the matter.
Off the battlefield, a multitude of geniuses gathered together, looking at Wu Chao who had already walked down from the battlefield, each with a strange expression.
...and yet, this Wu Chao’s face still held a gentle and kind smile, not placing any importance on the astonishment of those present. At this moment, he was also very content in his heart.
"I originally thought I would need more time and energy, but unexpectedly, Situ Yu has already been defeated by Su Xin. And he was defeated miserably, so there is no need for me to take action anymore."
This troublesome errand is finally over.
Wu Chao muttered to himself, when he saw Su Xin, he stopped and gave Su Xin a slight smile, "Thank you, benefactor."
"Thanks" Su Xinyi was taken aback.
Thanks for what
Thank you for beating Situk Jade just now
Whatever the case, Wu Chao has admitted defeat, which means Su Xin has one less enemy in this hunt.
Soon, thirty-six geniuses each had a match. The eighteen victors continued to the next round, which was also one-on-one matches.
This time, as long as we win, we can enter the top ten hunters and gain access to train in the Heavenly Flame Palace.
……
On the platform.
"Your Majesty, this is the battle order drawn up by the Red Dragon Pavilion for the eighteen talented warriors. Please take a look. The inner official will deliver a list of participants to Emperor Tianyan."
In the past, this Heavenly Flame Emperor would have just glanced at the list and fought according to it.
But this time, Emperor Tianyan pointed to two names on the list.
"Change the order of these two names," the Heavenly Flame Sovereign commanded.
"The inner official nodded. "
The battle table for these eighteen geniuses will be out soon.
First Match: Duan Yunfeng vs. Luo Bingyun
Second Round: Xia Mang vs. Chu Tao
"The third act..."
There were a total of nine matches, and the first eight were all normal.
Only the ninth game...
"Su Xin against Tu San!"
……ealm powerhouses who charged to the front had just landed when a sword light swept past them, followed by several Sea Transformation Realm cultivators behind them, all being struck by the sword light....
