Chapter 2436: Another Victory

"He had already seen through it, although the young man before him was only at the Jindan mid-stage cultivation, he was at the core of everyone present.Moreover, just now in the battle against the Dem..."My goodness, the people of Jueqing Valley are incredibly formidable. Is this what they mean by inflicting harm invisibly..."

"That's amazing! To defeat a Void Realm expert with just one song, is there anything more incredible than that..."

She was also said to be a frontrunner for this tournament, and people wondered who would be stronger: her or the Ice Sword Fairy…

Wangchen, after the referee announced the results, walked straight off the stage and back to his seat, while the surrounding discussions continued unabated.

Although it sounds complicated, it only took a few minutes. Several other stages hadn't even started yet.

Ye Bufan shifted his gaze to the other stage beside him.

Lu Xue Man stood on the stage. Facing her was a young man in white, Dong Guanhai from Lingxiao Academy of Tianwu Prefecture.

Although this guy is also at the peak of his cultivation, he has a proud look on his face.

There was no other reason, just because the opponent came from Tianluo Prefecture. Kunlun Continent's Tianwu Prefecture was the strongest, while Tianluo Prefecture was the weakest. For this very reason, he didn't take the opponent seriously at all.

Although Chiang Fang-chou had already won a match before, in his view, it was purely opportunistic and lacked real strength.

"Come on, I'll let you have the first three moves since you're a woman."

Dong Guanhai's words were extremely arrogant, completely putting on an air of superiority.

Since the other party insisted on pretending, Lu Xue Man had no politeness whatsoever. She drew her sword from behind with a swish, creating a dazzling cold light that pierced towards the opponent's throat.

As the saying goes, one can tell a master swordsman by their first move. The moment she drew her sword, everyone present felt a shift in the air.

Even a fool can see now that this beautiful woman is not actually at the Refining Void stage, but hiding her true cultivation.

On the viewing stand, Bai Li Xingkong let out a cold snort. "Is this how everyone in Tianluo Prefecture is Unable to be straightforward and open about their cultivation, they always have to hide it"

Xi Men Feng smiled faintly: "Your Highness, you're wrong. Didn't you say before that once on stage, one becomes an enemy Is there anything wrong with hiding one's cultivation from the enemy Besides, it doesn't violate the rules of the competition."

Besides, it was that kid who was arrogant and self-important, insisting on challenging someone to a three-move duel. Who can blame anyone for the outcome

Bai Li Xingkong was stunned by her words, then said with a sullen expression, "So what Even if we seize the opportunity first, in the end it all depends on our own strength."

On the stage, Dong Guanhai's heart was completely in disarray as he felt the power of Lu Xueman's sword.

He originally thought the other party's cultivation level was definitely inferior to his own, so he wanted to pretend and let the other party have three moves. He didn't expect that after one move, he was completely at a disadvantage.

Faced with this incredibly powerful sword strike, he had no other choice but to quickly retreat.

I hope the other side's speed isn't faster than mine, so I can gain some breathing room and turn things around.

It was clear he had overestimated things. Lu Xue Man's speed wasn't any slower than his, and she wouldn't give him that chance.

The sword in his hand was imbued with a sharp, menacing aura, like a bone-chilling curse, still aimed at his throat.

Feeling the murderous aura emanating from the sword, Dong Guanhai was completely terrified. His heart was filled with regret.

At this moment, he could clearly see that the other party's cultivation was no less than his own. He was also at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. In this situation, asking him to let the other party make three moves would be a complete humiliation for himself.

He couldn't understand, when did the usually frail Tianluo state cultivators become so powerful

But the sharp blade was right before him, leaving no time for him to think.

Seeing the railing of the stage just behind him, he knew that if he retreated any further, he would be out. With no other choice, he could only shift horizontally to avoid the sword strike.

Lu Xue's seemingly premonitioned action caused her wrist to quiver, and the sword swiftly followed suit, heading straight for its target.

"I..."

Dong Guanghai was feeling deeply aggrieved. He had been holding his breath since the start of the war and hadn't recovered yet.

With no other choice, he could only dodge again. At the same time, he drew his sword from behind and met Lu Xue Man's blade head-on.

According to his plan, he wanted to use his cultivation to shake the opponent's sword away and buy himself a moment to catch his breath.

As long as I can get over this, I believe that with my own strength, I can definitely win this game.

But now he was completely at a disadvantage, being suppressed to the point of utter helplessness. This sword strike couldn't even unleash 50% of his cultivation.

Two longswords clashed, producing a ringing clang. Though the strike was barely parried, it was all they could manage. To actually push Lu Xue Man back was impossible.

Before he could even retreat, another sword light flashed. Lu Xue Man's treasured sword slashed down once more.

Faced with no other choice, Dong Guanhai could only desperately fight back. He couldn't understand how the opponent's cultivation could be so powerful and their moves so skilled.

He had no way of knowing that, although Lu Xue Man had just advanced to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, she usually sparred with strong cultivators like Nalan Yu Jia who were at the Void Refinement stage. Her cultivation techniques also came from Ye Bufan and were high-level methods, so her combat ability was naturally incomparable to ordinary cultivators.

Even if he tried his best, he probably wouldn't be a match for the other person. Besides, he started off by showing off and conceded three moves right away, losing the initiative.

The bystanders were also completely dumbfounded. In their opinion, Lu Xue Man was just a pretty vase, and her strength was definitely not comparable to theirs.

The result, however, came as a shock to them. From the very beginning, Dong Guanhai was overwhelmed by his opponent and had no power to fight back.

Bai Li Xingkong looked utterly shocked, clearly taken aback by Lu Xue Man's performance.

Xi Men Feng smiled faintly: "Your Highness, the result may disappoint you."

On the platform, Lu Xue'man's Seventy-two Road Pursuing Soul Demonic Sword gave Dong Guanhai no chance to breathe, pressing him down relentlessly, the gap widening increasingly.

This fellow has a high level of cultivation, but he can't get his breath back, so he can't launch an effective counterattack.

He managed to withstand ten moves, Dong Guanghai gave it his all to block Lu Xue's sword, but he also left himself wide open.

He was then kicked in the abdomen and flew backward, crashing to the ground below the stage.

Dong Guanhai's face was filled with unwillingness, he struggled to stand up, and then spat out a mouthful of blood.

This game was too frustrating, we were always under pressure and couldn't even show half our strength.

But who can blame him He was just too arrogant, looked down on the cultivators from Tianluo Prefecture, and threw away his advantage right at the start.

He was consumed by a burning anger, while the onlookers were filled with immense excitement.

As spectators, they naturally don't want to see a one-sided match. The more suspenseful and intense it is, the better. And now Lu Xue Man's performance just meets their wish.

"My goodness, when did Tianluo Prefecture become so formidable..."

"Tianluo State actually won another game. Could it become the dark horse of this competition..."

"What an amazing comeback! This is truly impressive..."

The onlookers buzzed with discussion, and the disciples from various schools who had come to participate were also surprised, but that was all.

In the eyes of most people, even if Lu Xue Man performs amazingly, Tian Luo Zhou is still the weakest in terms of strength and is destined to not go very far.u.""I..."Ye Bufan now understood that persuading this little girl was almost impossible. He could only find a chance to sneak away secretly."Alright then, let's go together."He identified the directio...
