Chapter 9

Wen Chaosheng and Ying Ning both had swords in their hands.

Just then, the referee blew the whistle.

Yingning twirled her sword and charged straight at Wen Chaosheng, her sword radiating a menacing aura.

A crimson afterimage flashed before Wen Chaosheng's eyes. He realized that Feng Yingning was quite powerful, and he quickly regained his composure and became serious.

As the Blood Sword drew near, Wen Chaosheng stepped back, but his right hand didn't stop; the blade of the Willow Leaf Sword wrapped around Ying Ning's attack, blocking it.

Yingning had long anticipated that Wen Chaosheng was a man of great strength, and she did not take him lightly.

Following the force of the willow-leaf sword, she swung the blood-red longsword in her hand halfway around, deflected the willow-leaf sword, and struck straight at her face!

Wen Chaosheng sidestepped, his feet moving incredibly fast, and dodged the sword.

He stopped on the other side of the arena and quickly used the Heavenly Sword Cliff technique with his willow-leaf sword: the Gentle Breeze Swordplay.

The seventh move of the Qingfeng Swordplay: Grass Meets Spring Breeze.

This move may not sound very dangerous, but only those who have experienced it firsthand know that the spring breeze can be a deadly blade.

The sword energy surrounded the enemy, appearing gentle like a spring breeze, but in reality, countless sword energies would cut wounds on your body. Ying Ning quickly blocked several sharp sword energies.

Wen Chaosheng seems easy to get along with, but in reality he's a black-hearted devil.

They started with ruthless tactics.

"Sunset Slash!"

Ying Ning used the Sword Sect's techniques, and the blood-red longsword in her hand continuously shattered Wen Chaosheng's sword energy, cutting it down one by one.

Don't you want the spring breeze to rise?

Then I'll cut down the setting sun and see if your spring breeze can rise up!

In an instant, Sunset Slash cut down all of Wen Chaosheng's sword energy.

Wen Chaosheng did not stop. When the Sunset Slash disappeared, he used the Willow Leaf Sword to attack again.

This move is actually: Frost Conceals the Clouds?!

Wen Chaosheng already had a plan in mind. He was skilled in divination, and when he made his first move, he guessed that Feng Yingning was going to use the Sunset Slash.

With the force of a setting sun, it cuts through the gentleness of the spring breeze.

In this way, he could use Feng Yingning's Sunset Slash to make up for "Frost Covering Clouds".

Next, Feng Yingning will use the Cloud-Piercing Slash...

Next up is the Crescent Moon Blade...

Next is...

Just as he had guessed, Feng Yingning used all the moves according to his plan.

Seeing this, Wen Chaosheng was naturally overjoyed, for the outcome of this match was already decided.

The elders on the viewing platform also noticed Wen Chaosheng's thoughts and began to discuss them.

“Feng Yingning’s attacks are fierce, and her swordsmanship is superb. She makes her moves without any hesitation. She is a promising sword cultivator.”

"Unfortunately, such a rapid advance will only allow Wen Chaosheng to lead us by the nose."

"Yes, she is still young and will probably need to cultivate more in the future."

Wen Chaosheng then used his sword technique: Misty Rain and Flower Scenery.

This sword technique transforms the sword into countless afterimages, confusing the opponent's vision and drawing them closer, allowing for a surprise attack.

The gemstone on Wen Chaosheng's forehead twitched slightly with his movements, indicating that he was in a good mood.

[Feng Yingning will unleash a white rainbow piercing the sun!]

Wen Chaosheng had already made preparations, and when Feng Yingning used the White Rainbow Piercing the Sun, he could use his final move to defeat her!

He is still looking for an opportunity.

Who would have thought,

A bloody shadow flashed past his eyes at lightning speed, leaving a trail of sword energy across his face!

Before Wen Chaosheng could even get a clear look at Feng Yingning's figure, he immediately realized what was happening.

She actually used:

Looking at the moon through a mirror!

To use the depths of the moon to strike at one's own Achilles' heel?!

Wen Chaosheng then realized that Feng Yingning's moves were wrong.

The cold blade was already pressed against his neck, pressing against his vital point.

Although Ying Ning stopped in time, the sword energy still lightly grazed Wen Chaosheng's skin.

A few drops of bloody liquid slowly trickled down his neck.

The Qiongqi embroidery on the chest of his robe added a damp, dark hue.

"Why....."

Why didn't you have a rainbow in broad daylight...?

As soon as Wen Chaosheng spoke, the misty rain-like scene formed by the sword energy in front of him gradually dissipated as he stopped moving.

The other side of the sword, pointing directly at his neck, slowly emerged.

Behind the blood-red longsword, the woman in crimson robes had her long black hair flying wildly due to the sword energy emanating from her body. The Heaven-Burning Mark on her forehead resembled flames, highlighting the smile in her phoenix eyes.

The smiling face of the beautiful woman, along with the lingering pain in her neck, gave Wen Chaosheng a huge shock.

"Of course, I guessed you first."

Yingning had already discovered his intentions, so she simply went along with it and used his scheme against him. She gradually lured Wen Chaosheng into using the Misty Rain Scenery Flower sword technique. Once he used it, she could get close to him.

That's it, a single move to win!

Wen Chaosheng was momentarily stunned. Looking at this stunningly beautiful woman, a strange feeling he had never experienced before welled up in his heart.

The feeling of failure... is not...

Sad... or maybe not...

There was a hint of joy in my chest...

【yes...】

Only a woman like this could be the one I've foreseen...

"Fairy Feng, I've lost." Wen Chaosheng looked extremely happy, but it was also a bit strange.

Despite losing the game, I was surprisingly happy.

The elders on the platform also began to discuss it.

"This little girl... she really does think one step ahead of that brat Wen!" Yun Lin saw Wen Chaosheng's defeat and actually said he deserved it.

"Serves him right, that brat!!"

Although that's what he said, Yunlin still squinted at Feng Yingning.

Despite the relentless swordplay between the two, leaving no openings between them, the young girl actually saw through Wen Chaosheng's scheme.

[Not only did she see through it all, but she also thought of going with the flow, guiding the brat's feigned intentions to make him use his swordsmanship according to her wishes.]

Hahahaha!

That brat thinks he's the matchmaker for this game.

[I never imagined he was the puppet!]

The elders from other sects also looked at Feng Yingning with admiration.

"I didn't expect that I had misjudged him."

"Among the disciples, this little girl is probably the first to be able to defeat Wen Chaosheng."

“Yes, Yunlin, why don’t you just prepare a dowry for Chaosheng?”

"It seems that Chaosheng could marry into the Sword Sect."

......

The match between the two was quite exciting, and the disciples from various sects in the stands were also very excited.

"The misty rain and flower scenery is so beautiful!"

"If you ask me, it's still Feng Xianzi's 'Looking at the Moon in the Mirror'! It's incredibly powerful."

The disciples did not see the scheming between Wen Chaosheng and Feng Yingning during the competition, but genuinely believed that the final move, "Moon Exploration in the Mirror," had secured the victory.

After a long time, Dan Yao's side also gained a slight advantage over the disciples of Wuji Palace.

But in this round of the competition, everyone's attention was on Feng Yingning.

Some people were talking about Wen Chaosheng's love at first sight, others about Feng Yingning's superb swordsmanship. On her way back to her seat, Dan Yao heard all of this.

Feng Yingning...

Feng Yingning...

Even sitting in his seat, the male disciple who had just been agreeing with him was now praising Feng Yingning's superb swordsmanship.

Dan Yao listened from the side.

A sinister glint flashed in her eyes without her realizing it.
