"A ninth-grade spiritual weapon is nothing to our Divine Wood Sect," Ye Feng said calmly.
Ling Tianxing smiled wryly and said, "Then I thank you very much. Elder Lin, please convey my thanks to Master Qingmu."
The night breeze nodded gently.
After the gift-giving ceremony, the martial arts competition and debate began.
Ling Chaoxing, who was sitting on the platform, jumped down from the platform with great spirit and landed on the ground like a shooting star, creating a large crater in the hard bluestone pavement of the square.
"Although I have broken through to the Transcendent Realm, I am still inferior to all the sect leaders present. If you are interested, you are welcome to come down and exchange ideas with me. We can compete and discuss techniques to improve together!" Ling Chaoxing said loudly, his voice echoing throughout the entire square.
The leaders of the various sects present looked at each other, and then one of them stood up from his seat.
"Alright, then I'll have a friendly spar with you!"
This person is none other than Qian Tianyu, the sect leader of the Yu Chen Sect.
As soon as Qian Tianyu finished speaking, he leaped into the air and landed gracefully in front of Ling Chaoxing.
Qian Tianyu stood with his hands behind his back, while Ling Chaoxing bowed respectfully, showing the deference of a junior.
After bowing, Ling Chaoxing let out a "ha!" and charged towards Qian Tianyu like a tiger descending a mountain.
Ling Chaoxing threw a punch, and his fist emitted a dazzling light, like a bright star.
"Your Heavenly Star Divine Fist is quite impressive. It seems you have already cultivated the Heavenly Nature Divine Fist to the Great Perfection!"
Qian Tianyu praised him and waved his hands. The air in front of him immediately rippled like water.
"This is the Heavenly Universe Soft Palm of the Yu Chen Sect, which emphasizes using softness to overcome hardness," Ye Feng explained to Sun Muqing, Jiang Lingxuan, Bai Muxue, and the others.
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan nodded repeatedly, their eyes wide as they watched.
Bai Muxue, Lin Xuanyue, and the others also watched the battle in the square intently.
Ling Chaoxing's Heavenly Star Divine Fist was fierce and domineering, but when his punch landed in front of Qian Tianyu, it could not break through Qian Tianyu's Heavenly Soft Palm defense.
Moreover, when Qian Tianyu pushed with both hands, Ling Chaoxing immediately staggered backward.
However, Ling Chaoxing quickly regained his balance and threw another punch.
The fight between Ling Chaoxing and Qian Tianyu didn't seem to be very big; it didn't even damage the square.
But this is simply because the two of them have excellent control over their strength.
Their power was so concentrated that not a single bit leaked out, which is why it did not affect the surrounding area.
If they hadn't deliberately controlled it, even releasing just a wisp of their true energy would probably have completely destroyed this plaza!
Before they knew it, Ling Chaoxing and Qian Tianyu had fought over a hundred rounds.
Ling Chaoxing was clearly no match for Qian Tianyu. Although Ling Chaoxing was always on the offensive while Qian Tianyu was on the defensive, Ling Chaoxing was never able to break through Qian Tianyu's defense.
Moreover, Ling Chaoxing had already used several martial arts techniques, but Qian Tianyu only used his Tianyu Mianrou Palm from beginning to end.
This is enough to show that Qian Tianyu's strength far surpasses Ling Chaoxing's!
"Sect Leader Qian is too powerful! This junior is no match for you! I have learned a lot from sparring with Sect Leader Qian. Thank you for your guidance!"
Ling Chaoxing took a few steps back and bowed.
Qian Tianyu chuckled and nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad. To remain so humble even after breaking through to the Transcendent Realm, you have a bright future ahead of you!"
Qian Tianyu then leaped up and landed in the seat of the Yu Chen Sect.
"Now that Sect Leader Qian has given his guidance, it is my turn."
Qiu Ling Sect Master Li Qiushui stood up and walked towards Ling Chaoxing step by step with a smile.
Li Qiushui walked in the air as if on flat ground, appearing so relaxed and carefree.
"Please enlighten me, Sect Leader Li."
Ling Chaoxing bowed again, then rushed towards Li Qiushui.
This time, Ling Chaoxing used his palm instead of his fist.
He struck Li Qiushui in the chest with a palm strike, and a ring of air from the punch immediately erupted, with many tiny stars seemingly flickering within the air wave.
"Ling Chaoxing's palm strike is the Heavenly Cloud Illusionary Star Palm of the Lingyun Sect. The Heavenly Cloud Illusionary Star Palm is a very comprehensive martial art, capable of both prolonged combat and instantaneous bursts of power," Ye Feng explained.
Sun Muqing and Jiang Lingxuan thoroughly enjoyed the show, while Bai Muxue and the others wore expressions of deep envy.
Li Qiushui's expression remained calm and composed.
Li Qiushui raised her hand and waved it, and a stream of clear water appeared out of thin air, blocking her way.
Ling Chaoxing's Heavenly Cloud Illusion Star Palm struck the stream of water, creating a large splash, but it did not break through Li Qiushui's defense.
Li Qiushui pointed her finger, and the clear stream of water instantly transformed into a water dragon, lunging towards Ling Chaoxing with bared teeth and claws.
"Amazing! Sect Leader Li, your cultivation of the Profound Nether True Water is unparalleled, flawless!"
Ling Chaoxing praised it and charged left and right, attacking the water dragon.
Although Ling Chaoxing scattered the water dragon several times, it seemed to gather and disperse repeatedly, as if it could never be destroyed.
"What kind of martial arts technique is this? It's so underhanded!" Sun Muqing couldn't help but exclaim.
"Strictly speaking, this can no longer be considered a martial art, but rather a combination of martial arts and spiritual weapons."
Ye Feng paused for a moment and then continued, "Li Qiushui is the sect leader of Qiuling Sect. Like Shangshui Sect, Qiuling Sect cultivates water-based techniques, so Li Qiushui has a very high level of expertise in water-based techniques."
"And the stream of water she released was actually her magical artifact. Li Qiushui controlled her magical artifact to fight Ling Chaoxing, which naturally allowed her to defeat Ling Chaoxing."
"But look closely, isn't Li Qiushui's water dragon a little smaller than before? This means that her spiritual weapon suffered some damage during her battle with Ling Chaoxing. Therefore, Li Qiushui's move is not flawless. We just need to destroy her spiritual weapon with overwhelming strength."
Hearing Ye Feng say this, Sun Muqing asked, "What if you don't have such formidable strength that you can't directly destroy Li Qiushui's spiritual weapon?"
"Then let's bypass the magical artifact and attack her directly!" Ye Feng said without hesitation.
Sun Muqing's eyes lit up, and a look of understanding appeared on her face.
Jiang Lingxuan and Bai Muxue nodded secretly, feeling that they had learned a lot.
Before they knew it, a while had passed. Ling Chaoxing was already panting, but Li Qiushui remained calm and composed, like a fairy who was untouched by worldly affairs.
"Alright, that's enough for now," Li Qiushui said with a smile, waving her hand.
The water dragon that had been swirling in the air instantly transformed into a stream of water that flowed into Li Qiushui's hand and disappeared into her palm.
After Li Qiushui returned to her seat, Ling Chaoxing bowed to the sect leaders of the various sects around the square and said with a wry smile, "Please give me a moment to catch my breath. I'll rest for a bit before asking for your guidance again."
