Chapter 738: Chapter 144: A Sword Defeats Chi Guang (Seeking Monthly Tickets at the Beginning of the Month)_2
“Those with bodies of the Power Limit Realm all have reached the Divine Power State, but it seems he hasn’t entered that state. Could it be that his Divine Skills haven’t come into effect yet?”
Someone wondered, and concluded that it could only be so.
Other martial artists might have differing physical capabilities, but the prodigies generally have similar ones, all in the Power Limit Realm.
Although there are differences within the Power Limit Realm, they are not significant, and since prodigies have so many other aspects of cultivation to focus on, without even mentioning their realms, techniques and Divine Skills among other Extreme Realms are more worthy of deep exploration.
“He’s too weak.”
Haoyue Saint Son’s eyes were cold, the woman in cloud attire may have saintess-level battle prowess, but compared to Li Hao, the gap was too vast. Even he could easily defeat her.
...
Among the crowd, Lin Qingyue saw Li Hao using the same Sword Dao as before, the Gentle Sword Dao, her eyes shone bright and she also came to some realizations.
Previously, Li Hao had guided her in the Sword Dao, but understanding it was another matter entirely. Unless one had a sudden insight, it wasn’t something one could grasp overnight; otherwise, if a Saint taught a disciple, they would master it in a day.
After finishing the fight with Su Yun, Li Hao advanced to the next round, waiting for his opponent to be assigned.
Meanwhile, Su Yun entered the losers’ bracket, continuing to fight fiercely and claimed victory.
While Li Hao watched, he quietly gathered the cultivation techniques of these prodigies and took out a drawing board to grind ink and paint.
His actions caught the eye of many, shocking them. Amid such intense and tense battles, how could he afford to draw?
Was this pretentious, or overly confident?
But when countless Divine Thoughts converged to see Li Hao’s painting clearly, all were speechless. The figures in the painting were vividly lifelike as if performing moves in front of them, embodying sharp offensive power, far from a mere show.
“This Mr. Qingfeng’s art skill is incredible!”
“Is this what defines an unparalleled prodigy? Besides martial arts, even his other skills are beyond the reach of ordinary people.”
“With such artistic skill, he could become the Chief Artist in the Divine Dynasty.”
Many whispered amongst themselves, yet Li Hao remained unaffected by the chatter, his state of mind tranquil, casually continuing his painting.
With each prompt of Artistic Path Experience, his experience bar gradually progressed…
Soon, it was time for Li Hao to appear again. He temporarily placed his brush on the stone inkwell, then stood up and instantly teleported to the battle platform.
This time, his opponent was a youth from the winners’ bracket, who noticed Li Hao’s painting off-stage. His gaze was grave as among the top ten opponents, aside from Chi Guang, Li Hao was also a formidable and inscrutable figure.
The manifestation of his Sword Dao alone was terrifying enough; nobody knew what other methods Mr. Qingfeng might conceal.
“You seem confident of winning.”
The youth stared at Li Hao and said.
Li Hao was taken aback and shook his head, “The victory and defeat here are just interludes, not important.”
The youth’s eyes narrowed slightly, immediately grasping Li Hao’s implication that his sights were set on the Canglan Realm’s competition slots, not paying much heed to the current battle.
Yet, his feelings were no different.
As a prodigy, who wouldn’t possess that natural disdain for everything?
“I’m quite keen to see your clash with Chi Guang, to see what each of you has up your sleeve.”
The youth’s eyes narrowed, “Meeting me might force you to reveal a bit more in advance.”
During their conversation, the Array condensed, and he suddenly erupted, summoning the Heaven and Earth Law Manifestation, his blade ignited with dark roaring flames, violently slashing towards Li Hao.
His Dharma Aspect also conjured a blade, following his strike, the space seemed to slightly crack, the Blade Intent was immensely strong, as if to split the earth.
Li Hao felt that vast power, the geo-pulse subtly operated, emerging behind him, instantly drawing massive Heaven and Earth Power, then in his hand transformed into a Sword Qi, casually released.
The Tender breaks the Rigid, the Sword Qi, like a soft silken thread, swiftly hugged the opponent’s blade body, penetrating into the Dharma Aspect.
With a loud bang, the Dharma Aspect shattered, the Sword Qi streaked past the opponent’s neck, marking a bloody line.
Li Hao withdrew his hand, the geo-pulse behind him also retracted and concealed.
Standing in the Dharma Aspect, the youth’s face froze, then paled slightly, looking somewhat upset.
He wanted to force Li Hao to reveal some real skills, but the Sword Dao was more formidable than he imagined. Li Hao indeed displayed previously unseen geo-pulse, but it was merely a slight operation, gathering a bit of power, hardly considered a trump card.
As the youth admitted defeat, Li Hao bowed his hands and then turned to leave the platform.
Returning to his seat, he saw the freshly inked brush tip hovering above the well, about to fall. He quickly grasped it, stirred it in the inkwell to adjust the brush tip, and then resumed painting.
Such actions, done in one fluent motion, rendered many onlookers speechless.
Compared to the battle, he seemed more focused on his painting.
“Ended with a single strike again, who could possibly force him to draw a second?”

“He’s too strong; probably only Chi Guang can suppress him.”
“I didn’t expect such monsters to emerge from among us freelance cultivators. My master used to say, cultivation depends on the individual; even with average talent, joining a Holy Land might not lead to significant accomplishments, I believe those words now!”
“Looking at him, it seems he hasn’t even warmed up yet, quite exaggerating.”
The crowd buzzed with numerous discussions.
Lin Qingyue, seeing Li Hao’s focused demeanor, remembered him daily carving and painting in that small courtyard. A slight smile surfaced like a blossom on a snow-capped mountain, stunning in its splendor.
She knew Li Hao was not pretending to be relaxed; he truly enjoyed these activities.
