Chapter 410 Sparring and Competition 2
After receiving the news, Sheng Yuhong told Sect Leader Yu Geng and hurriedly headed to Doufa Peak. On the way, he met Zhou Lingchuan, who was also well-informed, and the two went to Doufa Peak together.

Sheng Yuhong was a little worried. He knew that Yunxi had just recovered from her injuries and thought that her decision to go to the arena was a bit hasty, so he wanted to persuade Yunxi not to participate in the competition.

Zhou Lingchuan was simply curious. There were many rumors about Wei Yunxi and many claims about her combat strength, but very few sect disciples had actually seen her fight. The records he had of her were from when she completed sect missions in her early days. He wanted to see her strength for himself.

Upon receiving the news, Wei Yunqing, who was holed up on Spirit Beast Peak, also rushed to Fighting Peak, purely wanting to see Yunxi humiliated.

At this moment, Yunxi, Lin Keyang, and Zhang Lingrui had already stepped onto the arena. With a wave of his sleeve, Venerable Haohui activated the arena's protective shield.

Meanwhile, the disciples watching from below the stage began to discuss among themselves:

"What's going on? Why are all three True Lords on the arena?"

"Looks like it's not a one-on-one fight, it's a two-on-one free-for-all. This trip was definitely worth it!"

"Who do you think will win among the three of them?"

"It must be True Monarch Ranxi. She just returned to the sect with a complete victory against three opponents not long ago. Have you forgotten?"

"That information is outdated."

"Stop talking, the duel has begun, and Zhang Zhenjun has already drawn his sword!"

Everyone's attention instantly returned to the ring.

Zhang Lingrui, inside the arena, made the first move. A golden giant sword, imbued with sharp sword intent, slashed down rapidly as he swung it. Yun Xi had already summoned the Nine Netherworld Dragon Umbrella into her hand. The opened Umbrella blocked the attack. Then, she swiftly drew the Nine Netherworld Sword from the umbrella handle and swung it backhand. A sword light filled with icy intent attacked Zhang Lingrui.

Zhang Lingrui felt a chill run down his spine and immediately drew his sword to defend, blocking the attack.

Lin Keyang, standing to the side, also activated the spirit artifact bracelet on his wrist. A layer of earthy yellow light emanated from his fist. As he threw a punch, a phantom of a winged tiger took shape and roared as it charged toward Yun Xi.

The Nether Dragon Umbrella, which was suspended beside Yunxi, also responded. The black dragon on the umbrella surface quickly sprang out and wrapped around the fierce winged tiger, staging a dragon-tiger battle. In the end, the winged tiger phantom was wrapped and shattered by the black dragon, successfully blocking Lin Keyang's attack.

Lin Keyang's eyes shone with an astonishing light, and he clasped his fists together, saying:

"Come again!"

Zhang Lingrui, standing to the side, excitedly licked her lips and said:
"Senior Sister Ranxi, you've been hiding your talents! I didn't even know you practiced swordsmanship!"

Yunxi held the Nine Nether Sword in her hand, her figure flickered, releasing a clone, and said with a smile:

"You've all forgotten that my master is renowned in the Western Regions for his swordsmanship. How can I, as his disciple, disgrace him?"

After saying that, the two identical Wei Yunxis each faced off against Lin Keyang and Zhang Lingrui.

Yunxi had Fenying wield the Nether Dragon Umbrella to fight Lin Keyang, while she herself held the Nine Nether Sword to face Zhang Lingrui. After all, this guy was a "sword maniac," and the kind of opponent who grew stronger with each challenge. She planned to knock him off the stage first.

Yunxi's sword strike this time was somewhat light and airy, but it was accompanied by a fierce wind and snow. She simultaneously infused the Nine Nether Sword with both ice and wind spiritual power. The seemingly thin snowflakes transformed into sharp ice needles, which unexpectedly attacked Zhang Lingrui.

This time, Zhang Lingrui also multiplied his sword into a hundred, forming a rain of swords that rushed into the ice needles conjured by Yunxi Fengxue. The collision of the two forces caused the defensive shield to shake.

The disciples watching the battle didn't even dare to blink, afraid of missing an important moment. Venerable Haohui nodded frequently, feeling that all three were quite strong, but it was obvious that Yunxi was slightly better. Moreover, he sensed that Yunxi's ice-type swordsmanship was also mixed with wind-type spiritual power, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

Upon arriving at the arena, Sheng Yuhong looked at the dazzling Yun Xi on the stage, and his feelings were beyond complicated; he now felt a sense of being far behind her.

Putting aside his current cultivation level, in terms of swordsmanship alone, he is not even as good as Zhang Lingrui. Yun Xi, on the other hand, is now holding her own against two opponents and even effortlessly deflecting their attacks. This gap is not something that can be bridged simply by improving his cultivation level.

Zhou Lingchuan's eyes also shone with admiration. He could now understand why Sheng Yuhong admired Wei Yunxi. She was simply too outstanding, and it was a pity that his senior brother had not caught her eye.

Wei Yunqing watched Yunxi steal the spotlight on the stage, her fists clenched tightly in her sleeves. She felt that the person standing on the stage, receiving all the attention, should be Yunxi.

"Hmph! What's so great about it?"

Wei Yunqing muttered to herself, then turned and left Doufa Peak. She was going to repair her crimson bracelet and didn't want to watch Yunxi steal the spotlight here.

Hidden in mid-air, Yu Ling and Hao Yi were also watching the fight, completely ignoring Wei Yunqing who had left.

“Yu Ling, your disciple is no ordinary person. I see that she uses ice magic very well, without even needing to convert spiritual energy.”

Yu Ling began to explain:

"Ranxi had some fortuitous encounters in the Baohua Mountain Secret Realm, and her water spirit root mutated into an ice spirit root. Her understanding of the 'Bright Moon Frost Condensation Technique' reached a new level, which enabled her to cast ice-type spells instantly."

"You've finally found a successor."

Haoyi said with some emotion.

"It's because Ranxi is determined to succeed."

Although the two were communicating, their divine senses were constantly focused on the battle below.

At this moment, the battle had reached a fever pitch. Yunxi, Zhang Lingrui, and Lin Keyang had been engulfed by the white, gold, and earth-yellow halos. The three forces were vying with each other, attempting to devour the other two forces.

Yunxi's clone waved her hand and sent the Nether Dragon Umbrella to her main body. Then, she used the intermediate-level fist technique of the Interstellar Body Refining Art to fight Lin Keyang. Every time the two threw a punch, hundreds of fist shadows would be formed. The huge power generated by the collision of their fists spread out, causing the defensive shield to start flashing again.

The resounding impacts sent chills down the spines of the sect disciples watching the battle.

Lin Keyang became more and more excited as he fought, and his punches became faster and faster, so fast that the lower-level disciples couldn't even see them. Only Nascent Soul cultivators like Hao Hui, Hao Yi, and Yu Ling could see the angle, force, and number of Lin Keyang's punches.

Yunxi's clones also grew stronger with each battle, infusing the power of the stars into their fist techniques. The speed and power of their punches increased rapidly, blocking all of Lin Keyang's attacks.

Finally, the thousands of punches unleashed by the two men converged into a single, enormous fist, colliding amidst gasps from the crowd. The combined force of the two fists spread outwards from the arena, and Lin Keyang was thrown off the stage by the force of the clash, while Yunxi's clone instantly bounced back to her original body.

Zhang Lingrui channeled his spiritual power into the sword and unleashed a sword technique called "Mysterious Gold Piercing the Sky," causing the golden giant sword to fall with unstoppable force.

Yunxi met the attack with a "Frost Slash," and a giant, icy-blue sword phantom formed above her head. The two swords met in mid-air, and the power of ice and metal clashed once again.

A faint cracking sound reached Hao Hui's ears.

　Good night, see you tomorrow~
