The sudden appearance of Little Stone surprised everyone in the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Qin Feng, Leng Yuexi, Xiao Fan, and Yin Tiantian reacted relatively calmly, with smiles on their lips.
They still had faith in Little Stone.
Little Stone kept Qin Feng's teachings in mind: the more tired he was and the more evenly matched the opponents were, the more vigilant he had to be.
After exchanging a powerful move with Ding Junhua, he was exhausted, but he did not relax his attention and kept a close eye on his opponent's situation.
Sure enough, he seized the opportunity.
While Ding Junhua was catching his breath, he used the movement technique Qin Feng had taught him to float to Ding Junhua's side and put his sword to Ding Junhua's neck.
They ultimately won the game.
Ding Junhua was still a little dazed, staring at the small stone that had suddenly appeared in front of him.
He was dumbfounded when he saw the spirit sword less than a centimeter away from his neck.
He was just catching his breath, how could he have lost?
Not to mention him, Zhao Mingzhen is no better than him.
Something's not right here. Will all their scheming come to nothing in the end?
Doesn't all their actions just benefit Guo Yunkai?
Zhao Mingzhen's feelings were complicated, and her gaze unconsciously fell on Zhang Kaicheng.
He didn't believe that Guo Yunkai's combat strength could be trained in just one month. He was sure that Zhang Kaicheng, that old bastard, was hiding something deep and had secretly tricked him.
Despite being exceptionally talented, he pretended to be inept at fighting.
They also took advantage of their past grudges to create a false impression, and finally succeeded in getting them to promote Guo Yunkai.
Zhang Kaicheng was unaware that Zhao Mingzhen viewed him as a cunning old fox. At this moment, he was very happy and his opinion of Qin Feng rose even higher.
In just one month, Qin Feng has really trained his disciple, who wasn't good at fighting, to this extent.
Guo Yunkai is indeed exceptionally talented, but to achieve this in just one month seems like a fantasy.
However, it didn't affect his cheerful mood at all; the smile on his lips was impossible to hide.
This time it's a sure thing, the Heavenly Sword Sect's spot in advancing to the Holy Domain will definitely go to the master and his disciples.
He laughed heartily at the sect leader, Deng Tianning, and said, "Sect leader, the outcome is already decided, isn't it?"
Deng Tianning came to his senses at this moment; he had also been quite shocked.
The last movement technique Little Stone used went unnoticed by others, but as the head of a sect, he was very perceptive.
This isn't a movement technique from their Heavenly Sword Sect; it's quite extraordinary. I wonder where this kid learned it from.
Based on his observations of Xiao Shitou, he basically stayed at Lengyue Peak of Tianjian Sect and had little contact with outsiders.
Outsiders? It seems like a few outsiders have come to Lengyue Peak recently. Could it be them?
He couldn't help but turn his gaze to Qin Feng and the others.
Qin Feng noticed his gaze and responded with a polite smile.
Deng Tianning suppressed his doubts and laughed heartily:
"Haha, this is truly wonderful! I am very happy today. Both of you are outstanding talents of my Heavenly Sword Sect. I hereby declare that the winner of this match is Guo Yunkai of Cold Moon Peak."
Only after he finished speaking did the other Heavenly Sword Sect disciples realize what was happening.
"This is a bit unexpected. I thought the winner would be Ding Junhua from Lieyang Peak."
"I told you, you can't judge a book by its cover. A genius is a genius after all."
Upon hearing the sect leader announce the results, Ding Junhua deflated like a punctured balloon.
All the arrogance and confidence he had when he first arrived at Fengyuntai had vanished.
He felt a deep sense of resentment, regret for the missed opportunity, guilt towards Zhao Mingzhen, and great doubt about Xiao Shitou, who seemed like a completely different person.
That's not the information he received. This is someone who's not good at fighting, a flower protected in a greenhouse? This is practically a master!
Seizing the right opportunity and acting decisively.
Defend when you need to defend, and attack when you need to attack, without any hesitation.
It seems simple, but how difficult it is to actually do it?
Timing is something that depends entirely on a feeling; it's fleeting and hard to grasp.
Through this battle, Xiao Shitou gained a new understanding of Qin Feng's combat strength.
Zhang Kaicheng said he was exceptionally talented, but Qin Fengzi was only a few months older than him. He had only learned a little bit of Qin Fengzi's skills, yet he was able to defeat a strongman like Ding Junhua in just one month.
Others might not know, but how could he not know? Ding Junhua had come with a lot of scheming and preparation, but in the end, he was no match for him.
He sheathed his spirit sword and prepared to step down from the stage.
He was also very tired. He didn't make any grand pronouncements or mock Ding Junhua; he just said one sentence.
"Remember our promise."
Then he prepared to step down.
Little Stone's thoughts were very simple; he didn't have the arrogant attitude of a victor at all. He had just won an ordinary competition.
If Ding Junhua had won this match, he would probably be laughing so hard he'd be beside himself with pride.
Deng Tianning looked at the unassuming Xiao Shitou with even greater appreciation in his eyes.
He coughed lightly and then said loudly again, "You two wait a moment, I have something to announce."
Little Stone paused, looking at Deng Tianning with curiosity.
Still looking bewildered, Ding Junhua looked at his sect leader with confusion. He had already lost, so what happened next should be none of his business, right?
Zhang Kaicheng, Ding Junhua, and the other Tianjian Sect disciples all looked at Deng Tianning with curiosity, who had a smiling face.
"I am very happy today to see that my Heavenly Sword Sect has produced two genius disciples. I am very satisfied."
