Chapter 770: Chapter 769: Gong Thirteen
"Xiao Lingyun was defeated."
"This is the one who defeated the shadow of Zhuge Xuan’s Array System, yet he’s not inferior to Zhuge Xuan of the same rank. Nonetheless, he was no match for Kirin, the gap between their abilities was substantial."
There were those who were shocked by this result, overjoyed, but most felt a sense of dread.
They couldn’t help but feel this way.
Shi Xiaole’s combat prowess had reshaped many people’s notion of power. Until now, there’d never been such a young and deserving Earth-level swordsman."
Perhaps people like the Galan Sword Emperor missed the Sword Ranking Tournament due to various reasons when they were young, but they missed their chance. They can’t be compared to him in the official records."
Many even suspected that even the matchless swordsmen of the same age wouldn’t be a match for Kirin. One could see that he didn’t even move his feet during the fight, he purely suppressed Xiao Lingyun."
"Damn it!"
Xiao Lingyun’s face darkened, his fists clenched and then he relaxed them.
This defeat was more humiliating than when his Array System was defeated, he finally understood why his opponent didn’t deliberately use his resources. Yet who could imagine that someone’s abilities at the same rank could be so formidable."
After a few moments of contemplation, Xiao Lingyun turned and walked back to his seat.
A defeat is a defeat. Lingering on won’t do anything but add to his embarrassment."
"Shi Xiaole is after all, Shi Xiaole. He can’t be judged by normal standards."
Liu Xuantong sadly shook his shook.
From the time of Tri-Pole Palace to now, less than two years on, not only has Shi Xiaole surpassed him, but also left him far behind. Looking at his despairing speed, refusal is not an option+"
Sheng Xingzhi who was standing nearby remained silent, his facial expression showing some sentiment.
Mu Ling, was observing from a distance, squinted.
Since Shi Xiaole’s cultivation was suppressed, it was impossible for him to determine how much force the other party had used. What made him feel helpless was the sense of inevitability he felt when he saw Shi Xiaole setting another record."
For Shi Xiaole, defeating Xiao Lingyun at the same rank was not a big deal, it was more like a warm-up. Just as he was about to head towards the star-level arena, another person stopped him."
"Kirin, let’s have a battle."
The speaker was a young man, of average build, but his posture was as sharp as a sword. On his back, he carried a large black sword sheath."
"Is Gong Thirteen challenging Kirin?"
"No, he is challenging the Earth-level Arena! But he doesn’t deign to face Array System shadows, as we all know, Gong Thirteen has always been rather proud."
There was surprise, confusion, and then excitement.
After seeing the strength demonstrated by Kirin, Gong Thirteen still dared to challenge him, what does this mean? Arrogance doesn’t mean stupidity, Gong Thirteen is not a fool, charging against the enemy even when he knows he’ll be defeated."
It was at this time that many people recalled that Gong Thirteen hadn’t made a move in two years. That’s right, he became the sixth-ranked young expert on the Earth Immortal List, two years ago."
For a genius, two years is enough to change a lot."
"Perhaps, he can really defeat Kirin."
The previous two matches, left the women of Heavenly Snow Mountain surprised yet furious, but there was nothing they could do. Upon seeing Gong Thirteen - calm and indifferent, they couldn’t help but pin their hopes on him."
Ignoring others’ reactions, Gong Thirteen swiftly ascended the Earth-level arena. There was no expression on his lean face as he spoke to Shi Xiaole: "I don’t like taking advantage of others. You can rest for a while."
"No need."
Upon hearing this, Shi Xiaole shook his head.
Gong Thirteen raised an eyebrow: "Are you sure?"
Shi Xiaole didn’t respond, his silence signified his agreement.
Whoosh!
A black long sword flew out of the sheath and into Gong Thirteen’s hands. With a wave of his right hand, the gloomy sword light was like a sea of ink, surging towards Shi Xiaole.
Everyone has to take responsibility for their words and deeds, if the opponent is ungrateful, then there’s nothing else to say."
The sea of ink was a hundred feet tall, covering half the arena in an instant. The cutting noise of the impact resounded, sending a chill down one’s spine."
"Is this attack more powerful than mine?"
Xiao Lingyun felt suffocated.
It was just about acceptable to lose to Kirin, but what’s happening now? Even Gong Thirteen has surpassed F him. He didn’t think the other party had only increased attack power."
Holding the Red Left Sword, Shi Xiaole slashed forward. The green-red Sword Qi carried the power of water, fire, thunder and lightning, along crashing towards the front."
First move of Wind Sword Technique, Erupting Tides."
Bang!
The moment the two Sword Qi collided, the sky above the arena seemed to be a crumpled piece of paper, severely distorted. Immediately afterwards, countless cracks spread outward."
Even with ten times the current power of Gong Thirteen and Shi Xiaole, they could not tear the void. These cracks were just illusions created by Sword Qi. But if any Dragon Gate Realm Lord dares to approach, he would be severely injured or even killed by the Sword Qi in the cracks."
The incredible happened."
The Sword Qi that Gong Thirteen had released managed to pass through a small part of the green-red Sword Qi unharmed and headed towards Shi Xiaole, who had just made his move. It was like light passing through glass."
Many people were left blank, they were about to say something, only to see Shi Xiaole, whose previous strength faded, making a sudden increase in his sword momentum, cutting off the oncoming Sword Qi."
The words stuck in their throats, as the young people’s hearts started to race."
They didn’t notice any mystery, if they had taken the stage, most likely they would have been deafeated already. Gong Thirteen is fearful. As for being able to block that unexpected attack, Kirin truly lived up to his name."
Even with just a single round of exchange, everyone could foresee, this might turn out to be an exciting battle of the dragon and the tiger."
"Not bad, I hope you won’t disappoint me next."
Gong Thirteen said indifferently."
Shi Xiaole didn’t say a word, he just smiled."
With the Realm of Sword Heart Enlightenment, the opponent’s every sword flaw can’t escape his eyes unless his sword skills surpass mine by a level."
Unfortunately among his peers, Shi Xiaole didn’t think such a person existed."
Without making any obvious movements with his feet, Gong Thirteen suddenly rushed forward. He left a long trail of phantom in his wake, like a streak of light, so fast it was unbelievable."
At the same time, he, who was still mid-way, raised his Black Night Sword high with both hands. Vigorous Air infused the sword, making the Black Night Sword emit a bright light, like the change between night and day, as he vigorously hit Shi Xiaole."
This is not Sword Qi, this is clearly light, it has no substance, no shape, but it’s omnipresent and inescapable."
"Light Extreme Sword Way?"
As one of the top ten geniuses in the Earth Immortal Ranking, Shi Xiaole had certainly heard the great name of Gong Thirteen. He also knew that what Gong Thirteen mastered was an extremely rare Light Extreme Sword Way."
This type of Sword Way is incredibly mysterious, initially the enhancement is only speed."
But apparently, after two years of hard cultivation, Gong Thirteen has found more uses for it – this moment, being able to make the Sword Qi possess some of the characteristics of light, like penetrating materials."
In combination with an unparalleled speed, every one of Gong Thirteen’s casual sword swings can be considered a killing technique."
This is indeed a remarkable genius in Sword Way."
