Chapter 121: The End of the Ranking Match

  Han Jiang and Ye Yun stood facing each other, their eyes bursting with sword intent. One was cold and gloomy, the other strong and upright, two extreme manifestations. The long sword in Ye Yun's hand let out an excited whistle, stimulated by the pressure of Han Jiang's powerful sword intent, the sword soul of Ye Yun's long sword also wanted to compete with his opponent's sword intent.

  Ye Yun drew out his long sword, its sound like a dragon's roar, echoing through the arena, the sword light casting Ye Yun's inverted reflection on the blade. His face

  With a spirited appearance, it seems that Ye Yun wants to thoroughly let go and make a desperate attempt. Regardless of the outcome, he must fight this battle, not for anything else, but for this sword alone. A country with both literature and martial arts is truly a nation.

  Across from him, Han Jiang saw Ye Yun's sword intent rising high, his expression still calm and composed, but the long sword in his hand was also emitting a low hum, with a subtle feeling of being about to be unsheathed. The scabbard began to emit sword energy, and everyone present was subdued by the aura emitted by these two people. It wasn't the intimidating aura of the two, but rather the aura that both of them emitted was a soaring sword intent. The air above the arena was stirred up by the two sword intents, with some low-hanging clouds being directly torn apart by the sword energy. Before they even clashed, the sword energies of the two had already exchanged blows in one round, temporarily evenly matched.

  "Yifeng Lord, your mountain peak is truly flourishing this year! You've produced a monstrous talent in Chen Xuan, and Ye Yun's strength has increased several times over the past year. It seems that just last year he was only barely touching the threshold of sword intent, but now he can already reach the pinnacle of three parts of sword intent. Breaking through to four parts of sword intent is likely imminent. With these two talented disciples, your mountain peak will surely become one of the top ten peaks in Danxuan Gate's rankings in the future."

  "Lou Feng has made a breakthrough, and Ye Yun can be considered a late bloomer. I sent him out for training for a year, and he might have encountered some strange experiences or gone through something, otherwise he wouldn't have reached the third peak of Sword Intent in just one year. You two, Chong Hai Feng and Xiao Qiu Yu, are also doing well; it seems that this year we have a good chance of winning the championship."

  On the arena, some other powerful warriors also highly evaluated the two of them, including Li Jinshan who couldn't help but admire the sword intent grasped by these two. Although in the eyes of these powerful warriors, these disciples were now no different from an ant, when they thought back to their own time at this realm, they had not even grasped their own sword intent.

  Ye Yun's momentum had already reached its peak, still lingering at the pinnacle of his Three-Part Sword Intent. At this moment, Han Jiang's long sword also shot up into the sky, with a fierce and violent sword intent bursting forth, instantly suppressing Ye Yun's Three-Part Sword Intent.

  Ye Yun was shocked, his three-part sword intent was so easily broken by the opponent's single sword. The sun was setting over the horizon, Ye Yun didn't want to wait any longer. His long sword transformed into a giant wheel of light, illuminating the entire arena. His energy surged like a rainbow, his sword moves were like a tiger leaping and bounding forward, reversing the situation. His three-part sword intent once again surpassed Han Jiang's five-part sword intent, the remaining sword energy rushed towards Han Jiang, a fierce gust of wind howled, the arena was swept up in a tornado, everyone saw that Han Jiang was now at the center of the tornado, about to be swallowed by it at any moment. Ye Yun wanted to use this move to decide the outcome.

  He knew his own strength and that of Han Jiang, so Ye Yun came up with a desperate plan, using his strongest move first. If he couldn't defeat Han Jiang, it meant he would lose this match for sure.

  Han Jiang was like a small boat on the river, drifting in all directions at the center of the tornado. However, after more than a dozen breaths had passed, Han Jiang still stood independently at the center of the tornado. The tornado emitted by Ye Yun would be dissolved by Han Jiang's Five Elements Sword Intent as soon as it approached within one meter of him, unable to cause any harm.

  Ye Yun saw that his move couldn't pose a threat to Han Jiang, and his heart skipped a beat. His sword intent changed again, and the scene erupted once more. The power of the dragon whirlwind was boosted again.

  Standing at the center of the whirlwind, Han Jiang's momentum changed instantly, and the long sword in his hand also moved. A gray vortex reappeared, which was the one that Chen Xuan's flowing sand had broken through before. This time, Han Jiang once again displayed it, and when the vortex appeared, the surrounding tornadoes were forced to retreat in a single breath. The gray vortex grew larger and larger, forcing Ye Yun's sword moves to retreat step by step, and even Ye Yun himself was forced back several steps. "So powerful!" Ye Yun exclaimed;

  Han Jiang walked out of the center of the tornado formed by Ye Yun's sword move, his right hand holding the sword to control the gray whirlpool spinning towards Ye Yun. When he entered the top ten, Han Jiang also made a similar move, but was finally broken by Chen Xuan's knife technique. It is unknown whether Ye Yun can break this sword move again this time. Everyone stared with wide eyes, watching how Ye Yun would defend against this move.

  Ye Yun's heart was also surging with emotions at this time, his strongest move had been easily broken by the opponent, but now there was no time for him to think about how Han Jiang broke his move, but rather he should think of a way to withstand this move.

  It was already pitch black on the seventh day of the game, but everyone could still see a gray whirlpool rolling towards the leaf cloud.

  Choosing the day under heaven, Ye Yun changed his move again and quickly formed a sword curtain to resist Han Jiang's sword move, which had transformed into a gray whirlpool. In one-thousandth of an instant, the gray whirlpool finally met Ye Yun's arranged sword curtain.

  This is a contest between 30% of the sword's intent and 50% of the sword's intent, with the sword intents intertwining and emitting a hissing sound. The gray vortex crashed against Ye Yun's sword curtain wave after wave, and after dozens of crashes, Ye Yun's sword curtain retreated like a tide, quickly being destroyed by Han Jiang's sword move.

  Bang, Ye Yun was knocked into the air when his sword screen was broken by Han Jiang, and Han Jiang's sword move also struck Ye Yun's chest. Wow, Ye Yun spat out a mouthful of blood and was knocked into mid-air, his entire body flying like a kite with its string cut off, thrown over a hundred meters away.

  This is Han Jiang's angry sword, furious sword, and violent sword, also a sword that proves his strength.

  Ye Yun was thrown into the air, and if he fell to the ground like this, he would likely suffer serious injury. In the Lingwu realm, his physical body was still very fragile. Ye Yun's body was fifty meters above the ground, rapidly falling downwards, and everyone remained unmoved, without any intention of reaching out to catch him.

  Just as Ye Yun was about to hit the ground, a figure moved in an instant. At zero point one second, the figure leaped into the air and caught Ye Yun with ease. At this moment, Ye Yun's face turned black, his breathing weak. It seemed that Han Jiang's sword had injured Ye Yun's internal organs. The person who held Ye Yun was none other than Chen Xuan. Chen Xuan's spiritual energy quickly entered Ye Yun's body and discovered severe injuries inside. Chen Xuan immediately mobilized the energy of the Soul Stone to enter Ye Yun's body. Now, Chen Xuan had no reservations and wasn't afraid that Ye Yun would discover the secret of the Soul Stone.

  In the blink of an eye, Ye Yun opened his eyes to find himself caught by Chen Xuan, a faint smile on his face. "I'm really ashamed," Ye Yun said helplessly, "I didn't expect Han Jiang to be so strong."

  "You just be quiet, I'll heal you first" Chen Xuan returned to his seat and put Ye Yun down, drawing out a large amount of energy from the soul stone to repair Ye Yun's body. At this time, a hint of surprise appeared on Ye Yun's face - what kind of energy was this, how could it repair so quickly?

  Chen Xuan also felt that Ye Yun had discovered the secret of his soul stone, "Immediately transmit a message to Ye Yun, hoping that Master can keep this secret for me" Chen Xuan's spiritual thought was sent to Ye Yun's soul sea;

  "Don't worry, little brother. I won't mention today's events to anyone. Besides, thanks for your timely help in catching me just now, or else my injuries would be even more severe." Ye Yun also sent a strand of spiritual energy to Chen Xuan;

  Ye Yun also knew that everyone had secrets, and Ye Yun was no exception.

  "Senior brother, with your current injuries, it's probably very difficult to continue fighting. If it's really not possible, then give up," said Chen Xuan.

  When Chen Xuan was speaking, an old man fell in front of Ye Yun, took out a pill from his pocket and fed it into Ye Yun's mouth. "Refining him will be beneficial to your injuries," the old man said before retreating.

  Chen Xuan also took a look, it was a green pill, which should be some kind of genius elixir refined from the heavenly treasure to treat injuries. A moment later, Ye Yun's face color obviously improved, but his injury had not completely healed yet;

  "Junior brother, retract your energy, I can recover by meditating on my own," said Ye Yun.

  Chen Xuan did not withdraw his hands, but instead continued to use the Soul Stone to repair Ye Yun. Chen Xuan now felt that the energy of this Soul Stone seemed endless, and no matter how he called upon it, he couldn't feel the Soul Stone's energy diminishing.

  The Soul Stone was indeed a healing sacred object, and after about half an hour of repair, Ye Yun's injuries had basically recovered to 90%. Even Ye Yun himself felt extremely shocked. This junior brother seemed not simple, and if this energy were to be revealed, it would probably cause a stir. However, he had no intention of prying, Ye Yun thought to himself.

  Half an hour later, the eighth round of competition continued.
