Chapter 1283: Chapter 1283: How Strong?
"Ah..."
The woman in red exclaimed, retreating hurriedly.
The cold white sword light instantly shattered her Charming Butterfly Powder and Butterfly Wind.
If she hadn’t reacted quickly and retreated, the sword light would probably have split her.
"How is it possible?" The woman in red barely steadied herself, looking at Xiao Yi with a horrified expression.
"Wrapped in my Charming Butterfly Powder, you shouldn’t be able to even hold your sword steady."
"Moreover, under the effect of Charming Heart Poison, your body should be rotting away, how can it..."
Before she could finish speaking, the woman in red was shocked.
The burn marks and wounds on Xiao Yi’s arm vanished instantly.
The Charming Butterfly Powder earlier did indeed hurt him.
But the damage wasn’t severe.
He deliberately held back to see the tactics of the Charming Demon Butterfly.
However, it was evident that the woman in front did not fully control the Charming Demon Butterfly Martial Soul and could not fully execute its methods.
As for the poison of the Charming Butterfly Powder, it was decent but lacked sustained power.
This skill might work against ordinary Martial Artists of the same realm.
But if faced with an Alchemist of the same realm, especially one with impressive means, such poison could almost be ignored.
Unless the poison had accumulated to an extremely high degree, like Qin Yi’s earlier injuries.
Clang...
At this moment, a crisp sword cry sounded.
Xiao Yi’s sword had already moved.
"Not good." The woman in red’s expression changed, and with a tremor from her pink wings, she dodged hastily.
Just as she dodged, a terrifying sword light fell from the void.
Bang... A huge explosion sounded.
The entire Martial Arts Arena was instantly enveloped in a cloud of dust.
When the dust settled, a massive sword mark was revealed on the arena, terrifying to behold.
This arena, even under Tang Qianliu’s full display of Martial Technique, had shown no damage, yet was now split open by a single sword.
"So powerful." Some disciples watching from the surrounding seats could hardly believe their eyes.
"This guy." Linghu Wang and several chiefs narrowed their eyes, their faces showing a battle intent.
On the Martial Arts Arena, the woman in red stared at the enormous sword mark on the ground with a look of fear.
She could easily imagine that if she hadn’t dodged just now, she would have been pulverized under the sword light.
"You want to kill me?" The woman in red reacted, her face turning cold.
"Do you even know who I am?..."
Before she could finish speaking.
Xiao Yi’s figure had already vanished from where he stood.
Before he appeared, a surging Sword Intent had already descended.
The woman in red was just about to shake the pink wings on her Martial Soul Illusion, but found herself unable to move.
The astonishing Sword Intent had already bound her.
"Not good." The woman in red’s expression changed.
A cold white light was already slicing towards her.
Clang...
Just then, a dark light flickered and barely blocked above the woman in red’s head.
It was a heavy, dark staff that blocked Xiao Yi’s sword.
"Judge?" Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes.
Indeed, it was one of the three judges who intervened.
"Mo Youh is defeated, surrendering would suffice, there’s no need to kill." The Deacon wielding the black staff frowned and said.
Xiao Yi’s face was indifferent, "When she wanted to kill the Black Cloud Academy disciple earlier, the three judges didn’t intervene."
"Wanting is one thing, after all she didn’t kill." The judge deacon responded in a deep voice.
"Mo Youh, surrender." The judge deacon glanced at the woman in red behind him.
The woman in red nodded, opened her mouth, but then froze in place, showing a frightened expression.
She opened her mouth, but couldn’t make a sound.
A surging Sword Intent had long suppressed her.
She couldn’t even move, let alone speak.
"Since she won’t surrender, she intends to continue fighting." Xiao Yi sneered.
"You..." The judge deacon’s face sank, naturally aware that the surrounding Sword Intent was suppressing Mo Youh.
The woman in red’s expression changed greatly but she was helpless.
"Get out of my way." Xiao Yi shouted coldly.
The Cold Flame Sword in his hand slashed, instantly rebuffing the judge deacon before him.
"Xiao Yi, don’t..." The judge deacon exclaimed.
However, Xiao Yi’s sword was already cutting towards the woman in red.
Bang... An explosion sounded.
The terrifying sword light directly knocked the woman in red into the air.
"Pff." As the woman in red was blown off the Martial Arts Arena, she spat out a mouthful of blood, her face deathly pale.
On her abdomen, a ferocious sword mark bled profusely.
"Mo Youh." The judge deacon flashed and appeared instantly beside the woman in red, supporting her.
Clearly, he was one of the three judges and also the deacon of Heavenly Stacked Peak.
"Xiao Yi, you little thief, just you wait." The woman in red’s pale face was filled with anger, her teeth clenched tightly.
On the Martial Arts Arena, Xiao Yi ignored it, and after the judge announced the victory, he turned and left the stage.
Yet the venomous gaze behind him grew even more intense.
The gaze, naturally, came from the woman in red.
"Wait for me, I will repay you a hundredfold..." The woman in red clenched her teeth.
"Silence." The deacon beside her interrupted in a deep voice, his aged eyes fixed on Xiao Yi’s departing figure.
"He held back."
"If he really wanted to kill you, even all three of us together wouldn’t be able to stop him."
"Held back?" The woman in red squinted her eyes.
"Yes." The deacon nodded, "This boy is very strong."
"How strong?" The woman in red sneered.
The deacon’s expression was extremely solemn, "In that last sword, he didn’t even use ten percent of his strength."
As the judge deacon spoke, his arm trembled slightly.
Underneath his sleeve, the hand that had held the staff just now, blood was trickling from the palm.
"Hmph." The woman in red snorted coldly, "Strong? That’s ridiculous."
"I will make him regret hurting me today."
A surge of venomousness surfaced on the woman’s beautiful face.
...
On the other side, Xiao Yi had already left the stage, returning to the academy seat.
"Impressive." Qin Yi and Tong Ye said simultaneously.
Their gazes towards Xiao Yi had already changed.
"Earlier I thought I could have a match with you."
"Now it seems you’ve long surpassed us."
"Heh." Xiao Yi chuckled lightly, "If you want to fight, anytime, it’s just a spar."
Saying that, Xiao Yi closed his eyes as if asleep as he usually does.
In fact, from the start of this first elimination round, there weren’t many matches that caught his attention.
The matches on the Martial Arts Arena continued.
One match after another, without much change compared to the previous ones.
The strong continued to win easily; the weak could only suffer defeat quietly.
The only variables were those disciples who had bad luck in the first round, with obvious strength but facing opponents far stronger than themselves.
Tang Qianliu was one of those.
Currently, it’s Tang Qianliu on stage, facing a Power Fool from the Five Fools Academy.
Apart from the chiefs of the Five Great Academy and a few Supreme Geniuses, even the elite disciples of the Five Great Academy would stand no chance against him.
The battle lasted only a few minutes before the outcome was decided.
Tang Qianliu’s sword slashed down, and a thousand currents instantly blasted the Power Mad Disciple off the Martial Arts Arena.
