After the fierce battle that had brought Cang Ming down, the spectators' cheers gradually subsided.

Xiao Chen did not immediately rejoin the crowd of disciples. Instead, he moved to one side of the square to regulate his breathing and ease the tension in his left arm muscles.

Several parts of his arm still ached from Cang Ming's earlier attacks. Although his physical strength had improved after reaching the Second Stage of the Golden Lightning God Body Technique, that did not mean he could simp

    The air above the stone platform suddenly grew heavier. Moments after Lin Feng declared that he would no longer hold back, the invisible pressure emanating from his sword blade slowly spread throughout the arena.Whoosh!Lin Feng stepped forward. His movements appeared no different from before, but the wind accompanying each of his sword strikes now felt far sharper.“Frost Dew Sword Technique: Third Layer!”The sword blade shot forward at astonishing speed, emitting a silvery gleam accompanied by a piercing chill. Guan Yu, who had previously been able to block or deflect his attacks with her palms, immediately pulled both hands back.She no longer dared to clash with him directly.The pressure arising from his initial understanding of Sword Intent gave every one of Lin Feng's sword strikes destructive power far beyond that of ordinary sword attacks. Even when the blade merely sliced through the air, the gust it produced was enough to leave painful scratches on Guan Yu's skin.Clang!

    The atmosphere in the main square grew increasingly lively after the Top Twenty round officially began. Disciples who were not participating in the matches began looking for places to watch the fights, while several participants prepared themselves as they waited for their turns.Not long afterward, the academy supervisor's voice echoed across the entire square once more.“Match Six of the Top Twenty Round! Guan Yu versus Lin Feng! Both participants, please step onto the arena!”Upon hearing her name called, Guan Yu immediately broke into a confident smile. She glanced briefly at Xiao Chen and Sima Ruoxi before stepping forward.“Watch closely. I'll show you how to deal with that cold swordsman!”After saying this, Guan Yu sprang forward and leaped onto the stone platform with a light movement. Her academy robe fluttered briefly before both feet landed firmly on the ground.On the opposite side, Lin Feng showed no reaction whatsoever. He calmly walked up the arena steps, then stopped

    After the fierce battle that had brought Cang Ming down, the spectators' cheers gradually subsided.Xiao Chen did not immediately rejoin the crowd of disciples. Instead, he moved to one side of the square to regulate his breathing and ease the tension in his left arm muscles.Several parts of his arm still ached from Cang Ming's earlier attacks. Although his physical strength had improved after reaching the Second Stage of the Golden Lightning God Body Technique, that did not mean he could simply ignore every injury he sustained.Moreover, during his fight against Cang Ming, Xiao Chen had not activated the Golden Lightning God Body Technique at all. He had relied solely on the physical strength he had tempered through his training.He slowly moved the fingers of his left hand, making sure there was no serious damage before circulating Pseudo-Qi throughout his body once more.Meanwhile, the Top Forty elimination round continued without any lengthy pauses. One match after another was he

    Xiao Chen seized the opportunity.His left foot stepped forward while his right fist shot toward the center of Cang Ming's body.Cang Ming's expression changed. He hurriedly crossed both arms in front of his chest.BAM!Xiao Chen's punch slammed into his defense. A heavy impact rang out, followed by a wave of energy spreading in every direction.Cang Ming's body was forced backward several steps.This time, he failed to maintain his balance completely. Both feet slid across the platform, and his chest felt tight from the pressure transmitted through his arms.Cang Ming immediately raised his head. Xiao Chen was already standing before him.The young man gave him no opportunity to regain his distance. Pseudo-Qi surged through his body, gathering in his right arm as his fist clenched once more.Cang Ming gritted his teeth.He concentrated all his remaining True Qi into both arms to withstand the next attack. There was no longer any room for him to rely on evasive movements.“Don't think

    Cang Ming's palm and Xiao Chen's fist finally collided.BAM!A thunderous impact shook the entire stone platform. A shockwave spread from the point of collision, sending dust rising from the arena floor and several stone fragments flying into the air.For a brief moment, both figures remained locked in place, facing each other.However, the outcome of the collision was not entirely what Cang Ming had expected.He felt an immense force breaking through his palm. The physical strength contained in Xiao Chen's punch was so powerful that the layer of True Qi surrounding his hand trembled violently.‘What kind of strength is this?!’ Cang Ming immediately circulated his True Qi to reinforce his arm.He had no intention of allowing that pressure to penetrate his defenses any further. However, before he could stabilize his stance, Xiao Chen's fist delivered another powerful force, forcing him to retreat several steps.Cang Ming's shoes scraped against the stone surface, leaving two long marks

    The thick dust billowing above the stone platform gradually began to settle.The spectators surrounding the arena leaned forward, trying to peer through the dusty haze to see what had happened at the center of the collision.Sima Ruoxi gripped the railing of the stands tightly, while Guan Yu held her breath, staring straight at the arena with a tense expression.On the supervisory platform, several outer-courtyard elders furrowed their brows. A simultaneous attack from six directions using the Ten-Direction Shadow Technique was not something to be taken lightly. Even a cultivator with strong defenses would struggle to withstand attacks arriving almost simultaneously from multiple angles.However, when the wind finally cleared their view, the sight on the platform plunged the entire arena into silence.At the center of the cracked and shattered stone circle, Xiao Chen was still standing upright.His gray robe was slightly dusty, while both feet remained firmly planted on the platform.
