Tumor Sword Immortal

Chapter 109 We can't break the rules.

Li Tan tried every method she could.

Her manifested spiritual power was not as strong as Changsun Yu's; her jade-colored spiritual power crumbled the moment it touched that deep purple light.

Her martial arts skills were not as graceful and agile as Changsun Yu's. Even when it seemed impossible to avoid, the sword always landed on empty air.

Even in terms of her profound cultivation, Changsun Yu's was far more advanced than hers.

Those in the audience could see it clearly, and Li Tan on the stage was just as clear-headed.

But do we really have to admit defeat?
Afterwards, Pei Xia, Xu Shangxin, and Lu Li stayed at the Lingxiao Sword Sect, while I went down the mountain alone and left, not knowing where I would wander to...

Blood loss was beginning to blur her vision, but Li Tan managed to straighten herself up. She looked at Changsun Yu, who was walking towards her again, and the word "admit defeat" lingered on her lips, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.

With a slender fingertip raised, a blazing purple spiritual energy shot towards Li Tan once again with effortless ease.

Changsun Yu had no intention of killing anyone, but his opponent refused to admit defeat, which made things difficult. He decided that this time he would pierce Li Tan's left leg and kick her off the stage when she was unable to move.

However, just as the inspiration struck, it crashed into the edge of a snow-white sword.

The golden aura flashed by and disappeared in an instant, canceling out the purple light.

Changsun Yu raised his eyebrows, his gaze following the snow-white ice sword upwards until he saw Pei Xia standing there holding the sword.

He recognized Pei Xia. Ever since he discovered that Xu Shangxin had an aura similar to the fire in his brain, Changsun Yu had gone to check Wang Su's bounty notice.

Including this sword trial, Pei Xia, known as "Superman of the East Sea," has repeatedly crossed boundaries and successfully defeated opponents. Even Huo Yeshan, a Transcendent Realm expert, was defeated by him by chance.

For someone of Zhengang's cultivation level, this is indeed astonishing.

Changsun Yu, who was about to extend his fingertips, paused slightly this time. He looked at Pei Xia and chuckled, "Senior Brother Pei, this is the arena."

“Yes, this is a fighting ring, not a deathmatch,” Pei Xia turned to look at the two bloody holes in Li Tan’s shoulders. “If this continues, someone might die. This… Senior Brother Changsun, right?”

Changsun Yu laughed again, this time a bit louder: "She can admit defeat."

After saying that, he also looked at the two bloody holes in Li Tan's body: "Besides, with this senior sister's Transcendental cultivation, such injuries shouldn't be anything, right?"

Almost the instant his words fell, Xia Xuan's palm trembled violently outside several arenas, and the Azure Sparrow Sword emitted a deep hum.

On the dueling platform, the snow sword transformed into a white ribbon, its dark golden light forming a line, and a very thin golden light swept across the platform!

In an extremely brief instant, Changsun Yu felt a sharp, piercing sensation, as if some kind of pressure had suddenly arrived, reaching the very boundary between his life and death!

In an instant, a fire ignited in his mind, and deep crimson flames reflected in Changsun Yu's eyes. His powerful computing ability pushed his perception to its limit, and time seemed to slow down considerably.

In that brief moment of respite, Changsun Yu, relying on his inner fire, quickly discerned the location of an extremely thin, dark golden ray of light.

Then, with graceful footwork and the melodious music and dance, he moved his tall figure and narrowly avoided Pei Xia's sword the instant time returned to normal.

But the dark golden blade still grazed his left shoulder, leaving a bloody gash on his purple robe!
Blood droplets splattered out, and Changsun Yu's eyes widened in astonishment, while Pei Xia also narrowed his eyes slightly, somewhat surprised.

Pei Xia's sword strike was so fast that many spectators didn't even know what had happened. They only saw Pei Xia suddenly step onto the stage, and then Changsun Yu had to retreat several steps, injuring his shoulder.

"Isn't it supposed to be one-on-one?" "Yeah, why is another one going up?"

"Isn't this...that...that...East Blue Superman?"

Whispers filled the air, but Pei Xia ignored them. He lightly flicked the blood droplets from the wound and looked at Changsun Yu: "Didn't you say that with the cultivation level of Tongxuan, such an injury is nothing?"

Changsun Yu raised his eyes, his gaze fixed intently on Pei Xia, his eyes gleaming with burning passion.

Since he had completely "converted" to that mysterious fire in his mind, this was the only time he had ever been truly astonished in a fight.

Even now, if Pei Xia hadn't wiped away the blood droplets with his sword, he still wouldn't have been able to believe that the dark golden thread from before was actually a sword!

Wang Su's reply only mentioned that this person's spiritual energy was extremely domineering, but now it seems... that might not have been his full strength.

Taking a deep breath, Changsun Yu covered the wound on his shoulder and slowly straightened up: "If Senior Brother Pei is angry because I injured your private parts during the fight, Changsun Yu can apologize. But the arena is the arena. I don't think I did anything wrong. It's you who came up on the stage to protect me. Do you not take my Lingxiao Sword Sect seriously?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the whispers from the audience began to rise.

What people say is right. Li Tan came on stage to compete in martial arts. Now that he can't win, and he refuses to admit defeat, does he expect to find someone to fight him two against one?

"Don't worry, I didn't mean that."

Pei Xia turned to look at Li Tan, meeting her weak and hazy gaze, and said softly, "Just admit defeat, it's okay. When we win the championship and the Lingxiao Sword Sect is begging us to join, we can just casually mention it to that dance leader and they'll take you in as an extra member, it won't hurt."

Pei Xia didn't lower her voice when she spoke, and many people heard her.

To be honest, the cultivators who were watching initially had a bit of a good impression of Pei Xia, this suddenly appearing superman from the East China Sea, and were somewhat amused by his antics.

But now that they saw him break the rules and heard him spouting nonsense, everyone's impression of him immediately changed.

Then all sorts of sarcastic remarks came from the crowd.

A hint of coldness appeared on Changsun Yu's beautiful face: "Senior Brother Pei's cultivation level isn't high, but his tone is certainly arrogant..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Pei Xia turned her head, and a sharp, piercing glint flashed in her eyes, which were often tired from lack of sleep.

Sheng forced Changsun Yu to swallow the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

The sword energy vanished in an instant. Pei Xia chuckled again. He didn't explain his arrogance, but simply reminded Changsun Yu: "Since you brought up the rules of the duel, I hope that when we get to the dueling platform at the summit... you'll still remember them."

Pei Xia turned around, picked up Li Tan, and jumped off the stage.

Changsun Yu watched his retreating figure and asked, "I haven't yet asked about Senior Brother Pei's lineage or his reputation in the martial arts world?"

Compared to Pei Xia's sword, his cultivation at the Zhen Gang Realm seemed like child's play. Changsun Yu didn't believe the nonsense he was spouting. He felt that this person must have been a renowned figure in the martial arts world in his early years.

Pei Xia glanced back at him and said only those four words: "East Sea Superman".

Hmph, still trying to fool and deceive at a time like this, they have no class whatsoever.

Changsun Yu watched Pei Xia carry Li Tan away into the distance, remaining silent for a long time.

Forget it, let's have someone investigate this... Donghai Superman?
