Although no one would bet on Mu Hanyan to lose, no one believed that Mu Hanyan could defeat Nan Aotian with just one move. However, the truth was so cruel. Mu Dawanku only used one move. Strictly speaking, that move had not even been completed. The two had not even officially exchanged blows when Nan Aotian gave up and admitted defeat.
Beards, all because of beards. They swear, they hate beards!
"How do you know his fatal weakness?" Ling Baobao came close to Mu Hanyan and asked with a wink.
"Guessed." Mu Hanyan certainly wouldn't tell Ling Baobao that in her previous life, she had fought with Nan Aotian for three days.
Nan Aotian was even more rugged back then, so much so that Mu Hanyan hadn't even recognized him before the duel. His Overlord Sword was also far more powerful then it is today, and he didn't take Mu Hanyan seriously at all. The two of them fought tooth and nail.
The two fought bitterly for three days, and just as Mu Hanyan was about to lose, half of his beard was blown away by the turbulent wind blade. Then, a scene that shocked Mu Hanyan beyond words occurred: Nan Aotian, stroking his half-perfect, almost perfect, handsome face, even more beautiful than a woman's, burst into tears, feeling shy and resentful, like a woman who had been stripped naked, feeling lost and helpless.
The fight between the two ended in vain, with no winner determined. Whenever Mu Hanyan thought of this, she couldn't help but burst out laughing. Unfortunately, she asked several times about the reason, but still couldn't find out.
It was not until today that I learned that Nan Aotian had such a tragic childhood, and that behind his seemingly rough and heroic beard like weeds, there was such a shameful past hidden.
After a long while, the cursing in the square died down and the competition continued.
The next competition was between Jiang Qiling and Cheng Zhicheng. Many years later, Cheng Zhicheng, Guan Shanhe, and Qi Kaiyun were known as the Three Heroes of Anyun, and their strength was undoubtedly impressive.
It was the first time that Mu Hanyan saw Cheng Zhicheng take action. She was also very curious about Jiang Qiling's improved strength after her meridians and marrow cleansing, so she paid special attention to this competition.
However, Cheng Zhicheng at this time was not the Cheng Zhicheng many years later. Although he was considered quite strong among his peers, he was knocked off the competition stage by Jiang Qiling's sword after only a dozen moves.
Mu Hanyan could see that Jiang Qiling still hadn't used her full strength, otherwise she would have been able to defeat Cheng Zhicheng in just ten moves.
What kind of unique skills does this guy have hidden? Recalling what Jiang Qiling said outside the Fantasy Dragon Palace and her extremely confident expression, Mu Hanyan became even more curious.
The next match was between Yue Fanchen and Guan Shanhe. Again, there was no suspense. Relying solely on the same Saint Sword move he had used against Mu Hanyan on the day of the election, Yue Fanchen easily defeated Guan Shanhe, leaving no room for doubt.
It was the last match, where Yan Yuchu fought against a young disciple named Song Anqi, that gave Mu Hanyan some surprises.
Song Anqi is a descendant of the Song family, one of the eight great families in Beijing. Although he is not well-known, his strength as a fifth-level swordsman is indeed impressive. However, Yan Yuchu's performance is even more amazing.
Although both were fifth-level sword masters, the Tianxing technique he practiced was of the same lineage as the Mu family's ancestral Tianxin technique. His true combat power was far greater than his opponent's. With just one sword strike, he knocked Song Anqi off the competition stage, drawing exclamations of surprise.
The name of Yan Yuchu of the Yan family also became famous because of this battle.
He is worthy of being the descendant of God's protection. Even though his bloodline awakened a little late, he bravely overcame the bottleneck, and his cultivation speed is still incomparable to other so-called geniuses.
Seeing Yan Yuchu's rapid growth, Mu Hanyan was secretly happy for him. After all, they were allies who watched over each other, and Yan Yuchu's strength was definitely not a bad thing for her.
The second round of competition ended here. Although each match was not too long, and the match between Mu Hanyan and Nan Aotian was even more ridiculous, but generally speaking, the disciples who watched from the sidelines still benefited a lot from the fights between these elite young masters, and they were full of anticipation and curiosity about tomorrow's competition.
I don’t know what kind of strong competition will be in tomorrow’s semi-finals. Will Mu Hanyan have the same good luck as today?
Mu Hanyan was also looking forward to the battle with Nan Aotian today. Maybe others would think it was just luck, but she knew very well that although Nan Aotian had an unruly temperament and some playful ideas, his swordsmanship was extremely domineering and crazy... Perhaps this was also related to the psychological trauma he had suffered since childhood.
If she had not put great psychological pressure on Nan Aotian from the very beginning today, and then used his fatal weakness to hurt the weakness deep in his heart, and finally, when Jiu Tianxingluo drew his sword, she had used all her strength to stimulate the sword's power to the extreme, and suppressed Nan Aotian's domineering sword power, he would never have admitted defeat.
Once his domineering sword is used, even if Mu Hanyan can defeat him, she will have to pay a heavy price.
In fact, even after the competition ended, Mu Hanyan's palms were still sweating and her feet felt a little weak.
After returning to Wenjian Valley, Mu Hanyan returned to her room early and began to practice breathing exercises.
At night, the Sword Valley was quiet and the entire Longyan Academy was no longer noisy as it was during the day. Not only the four people who were preparing to participate in the competition tomorrow, but the others also went to bed early to recuperate and prepare to learn more about the mysteries of swordsmanship from the two battles tomorrow.
Mu Hanyan suddenly focused her mind away from cultivation, her eyes fixed as she looked out the window.
"Who is it?" Mu Hanyan asked coldly.
The aura outside the window did not come from any of Hua Yue Zirong and the others, and its strength was obviously much higher than theirs.
"I." A low voice came.
Yan Yuchu, why is it him?
Mu Hanyan was confused, so she opened the window and floated out.
"What are you doing here?" Mu Hanyan asked Yan Yuchu, who was dressed in black.
"In tomorrow's competition, there is a 50% chance that you and I will fight each other." Yan Yuchu said.
"So what? Do you want to decide the winner in advance?" Mu Hanyan smiled and asked.
Becoming the strongest person in the Holy Court Continent is the dream of every cultivator, and she and Yan Yuchu are no exception.
The destiny star plate in the secret realm is equally important to Mu Hanyan, Jiang Qiling, and Yan Yuchu, whose bloodline awakened just a little later than them.
Yan Yuchu is her friend and ally, but not her follower. It is understandable that he fights with her with all his strength for his dream.
"No, I just want to get a result in advance." Yan Yuchu shook his head and said solemnly.
"Is there any difference?" Mu Hanyan looked at Yan Yuchu in confusion, not quite understanding the difference between deciding the winner in advance and having a result in advance.
