Ancient Devouring Technique

Chapter 394 Qualification
The extremely sharp sword energy flashed and arrived in front of Ye Xuan, the speed was so fast that it was amazing. It would be difficult for a general martial king to even defend himself!

Ye Xuan's face darkened slightly.

Under the disapproving gazes of the martial kings below the stage, he suddenly moved his right arm and his five fingers stretched out like a ghost.

With a "bang", Ye Xuan actually grabbed the silver-white sword energy that was coming towards him.

With a sound of "Crack!", the sword energy was crushed by his palm and shattered, turning into wisps of vital energy that dissipated in the surrounding void.

"Huh?" The silver-armored warrior, who had a playful smile on his face, was suddenly startled. When he saw this scene, the smile on his face disappeared instantly.

The warrior kings, who were originally pessimistic, paused for a moment, and asked in astonishment and surprise, "He actually blocked a sword with his bare hands?"

"I'm not mistaken. He is only at the early stage of the first level of the Martial King Realm. Could it be that we are giving him a break?"

Hearing the discussion from the audience, the silver-armored warrior frowned slightly and said contemptuously:

"I have always been fair and impartial. The attack just now was indeed a 10% attack."

The silver-armored warrior said as he looked at the black-robed youth opposite him again, "But the sword energy that I have used my full strength to slash out is also extremely sharp. It is definitely not something that an ordinary flesh and blood body can block."

The silver-armored warrior looked towards the palm of the black-robed young man, and saw that there were more than a dozen purple-gold scales on his palm. Each scale was only the size of a little finger, but it was these scales that had stubbornly resisted his sword energy.

When Ye Xuan heard the words of the silver-armored warrior and the martial kings below the stage, his mind suddenly changed. He mobilized the qi and blood in his body, and a trickle of blood was squeezed out of his mouth and flowed from the corner of his mouth.

"So... so strong!" Ye Xuan's right palm suddenly trembled, and a look of pain appeared on his face.

With a look of amazement in his eyes, he looked at the silver-armored warrior with a look of horror, "Your sword is really powerful. I can easily catch a sword of a Martial King of the first level, but your sword just now almost cut off my palm. I am still feeling a surge in my body!"

As Ye Xuan spoke, he waved his hands, and silver flames appeared on his palms. He pressed them in front of him, and a layer of silver flame wall appeared.

"Your swordsmanship is truly powerful, but I would like to see your second sword move. Please make your move!" Ye Xuan said, with an expression as if he was facing a formidable enemy, as if he was a junior who was asking for advice.

This scene once again made the martial kings in the audience quiet down for a moment, and then someone laughed and said, "It turns out that he has reached his limit with that sword just now."

"Haha, he actually came here to ask for martial arts lessons."

The silver-armored warrior nodded slightly. It seemed that he had overthought it. This boy had practiced a powerful secret technique of body refining, and the previous sword had reached his limit.

"In that case, I will cut off five of your fingers with this sword."

The silver-armored warrior swung his sword again, this time with a sword that was even more powerful and sharper.

"Ha!" Everyone only heard Ye Xuan's strange cry, and then saw the young man in black robe pushed away the silver flame wall in front of him with a trace of panic on his face, and faced the sword energy.

"I don't think he can take this blow." The short martial king who had used illusion to trip Ye Xuan before chuckled.

His name is Shi San. Although Ye Xuan had broken his illusion before, he didn't think that this young man in black robe could take the second sword. Illusion is a mental attack, which is completely different from the martial arts attack of sword energy.

"The fact that he was able to break my illusion proves that he has also practiced witchcraft. However, if he practices both magic and martial arts, he will not be able to excel in either field."

The other Martial Kings saw Ye Xuan’s panic and didn’t think he could take the second sword.

But the next scene made all the martial kings stunned again.

"Boom!" The sword energy directly chopped the silver flame curtain wall and made it explode, but the sword energy also shattered and dissipated in an instant.

"Puff! So... so strong!" Ye Xuan took two or three steps back and spat out a mouthful of blood in amazement.

His whole body was shaking, and he patted his chest with a look of fear, saying, "That was a really strong sword strike, but I want to take another one!"

As he spoke, a green sword appeared in Ye Xuan's hand, and as he danced, a sword curtain appeared.

The silver-armored warrior frowned again, and then looked angry. He couldn't even knock him down with two swords. This shouldn't be right.

Not wanting to waste any more words, the silver-armored warrior swung his sword again, the third time!
"I'm fighting!" Ye Xuan shouted and slashed wildly with the sword in his hand.

"Bang!" With a loud bang, the sword shadows that Ye Xuan slashed out and the sword energy of the silver-armored warrior collided in the void and shattered together.

Just like before, Ye Xuan vomited blood again and exclaimed, "So strong! I feel like I can't take the next sword..."

The silver-armored warriors and the martial kings below the stage breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was abnormal that the young man in black robe could take on three swords at the early first level of the martial king realm, it was not incredible. Some talented martial kings from major sects could also do it.

"I'm going to cut you in half!" the silver-armored warrior shouted, raising the sword high in his hand.

"Wow~~!" A large amount of heaven and earth energy rushed into the long sword in his hand, and the long sword suddenly burst into a dazzling white sword light.

"Whoa" the sword was chopped down, and the terrifying sword energy hissed out.

The Martial King in the audience couldn't help but shudder. This sword was equivalent to a blow from the third late stage of the Martial King realm. How could this kid survive this time?
"I will fight again!" Everyone only listened to Ye Xuan, and a colorful pagoda shadow appeared on his body, protecting him inside.

At this moment, all the Martial Kings had a strange feeling. They felt that the Martial Souls in their bodies were slightly vibrated after the phantom of the pagoda appeared.

"Dang!" With a sound of metal clashing, the powerful sword energy slashed on the Taihuang Pagoda, making a deafening sound, but the martial kings immediately widened their eyes, almost popping their eyeballs out, because the sword energy only caused ripples on the pagoda's martial spirit, but still did not break it!

"Holy shit, what's going on!?"

"I feel like my martial arts spirit has been insulted."

"He actually blocked the fourth sword!? Didn't he reach his limit in the previous few swords?"

……

The martial kings spoke, and Shi San's mouth twitched slightly. Who can cultivate to the level of martial king is a fool? At this time, the martial kings looked at the black-robed young man on the stage with strange expressions, who spit out blood again.

“How shameless!”

"Where did this freak come from?"

"Could he be a genius martial king from some big sect?"

The martial kings looked at the black-robed young man on the stage, only to hear him panting and saying again, "I... I feel like I can take one more sword strike!"

The silver-armored warrior's eyes turned red and his face was distorted. "You have succeeded in angering me. You must bear my wrath. The fifth sword, Sun-Splitting Destruction Slash!"

The silver-armored warrior held the sword in both hands and slashed out.

The sword energy soared into the sky, like a blue dragon, swooping towards Ye Xuan.

Holy shit, he actually used sword skills. Although it's still within 50% of the silver-armored warrior's ability, the power is definitely incomparable!

Ye Xuan's eyes flashed with solemnity, thinking that the silver-armored warrior was indeed dark and twisted. The silver-armored warrior laughed loudly, "I didn't break any rules. This sword is still 50% of my strength. I can't stop cutting you!"

"Sword formation!" Ye Xuan tapped his fingers, and the Taihuang Tower floated up. Small swords flew out of the Soul Tower like fish, connecting into one. It looked like a giant sword, slashing against the sword energy that was more than ten feet long.

"Bang!" The silver-white sword energy quickly disintegrated the giant sword, and the tip of the sword began to break apart. Small swords fell down one after another, and after circling, these scattered small swords returned to the big sword again. In a few breaths, the silver-white sword energy finally ran out of power and dissipated!
The fighting arena fell silent for a moment.

The silver-armored warrior stood on the fighting stage in astonishment, watching those small swords disappear into the pagoda's martial spirit again like fish returning to their nests.

It’s strange to say, although the colorful tower treasure looks transparent, all the sword soldiers disappeared once they flew into it.

The silver-armored warrior was a little dazed.

The other Martial Kings also did not expect that Ye Xuan could block five swords with his cultivation level of the early first level of the Martial King realm.

"Phew, that was close. Fortunately, there were only five swords. If there was one more, I definitely would not be able to take it. I'm so lucky." Ye Xuan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and took the Taihuang Pagoda martial spirit back into his body.

When the warriors in the fighting arena heard his words, their expressions varied.

Then, the silver-armored warrior suddenly laughed and nodded, "Finally I met someone I like. Boy, you are very good and have obtained a qualification."

After the silver-armored warrior finished speaking, he pulled off a silver token from his waist and threw it to Ye Xuan, "Take this token. If you have any questions in Jiuyuan City, just report my name, Kuang Zhan."

Ye Xuan was slightly startled as he grabbed the token. It was really because of the changeable personality of this crazy warrior that he was a little confused. However, he still bowed slightly and said, "Thank you!"

The martial kings in the audience looked at the token in Ye Xuan's hand with envy and jealousy. This was a Class A token from the City Lord's Mansion. With this token, one could almost walk around freely in Jiuyuan City. Some shops and clubs would give it some face and give big discounts on prices.

The silver-armored warrior waved his hand, sending Ye Xuan off the stage, and looked at the martial kings below and said, "You bunch of trash, who else dares to come on stage and be abused by me?"
