The moment Ling Yuwei sensed Ling Yaoyao using her sword intent, she decided to go all out and unhesitatingly used her own sword intent to enhance her attack.
She has been practicing basic sword moves these days, the most fundamental, direct and effective means of attack, not those flashy but ineffective sword dances.
When Ling Yuwei thrust out this sword, her eyes flashed with a sharp light, and her aura surged to its peak.
She seemed to transform into a drawn sword, sharp and piercing.
With the enhancement of sword intent, she resonated with the spiritual sword in her hand, becoming one with the sword, and her sword strikes became incredibly fast.
Simple, direct, effective, fast, accurate, and ruthless, he thrust his sword at Ling Yaoyao.
Ling Yaoyao was a little caught off guard. She was preparing her ultimate move, even using her sword intent, but Ling Yuwei's sudden change caught her completely off guard.
The original attack turned into a defense, and the sword that was supposed to be thrust out became a flick.
She really didn't expect Ling Yuwei to pull such a stunt, and she also didn't expect that Ling Yuwei had actually comprehended sword intent and felt its intensity, which was even stronger than her own sword intent.
She was genuinely a bit bewildered for a moment.
Ling Yuwei had calculated this opportunity and wouldn't let the other party resolve it so easily.
She knew that there was still a gap in strength between her and Ling Yaoyao. If the other party were to be prepared and fight her in a real battle, the outcome would be uncertain.
From the provocative words to the deceptive attacks, everything is a preparation for the next strike.
As Ling Yuwei thrust her sword out, the blade shimmered with a luminous white light, its tip resembling a silver snake spitting out starlight.
Her sword movements were incredibly harmonious, flowing like clouds and water, carrying her unwavering belief in victory, forming a sword aura as imposing as a mountain.
The sound of the spirit sword cutting through the air foreshadowed the extraordinary nature of this strike.
Ling Yaoyao realized this at this moment, but she was in a passive position and didn't have time to make any other preparations. She had to take the blow first.
Clang.
Ling Yuwei's sword strike was very powerful, causing Ling Yaoyao's arm to go numb and her figure to retreat step by step.
The forces are reciprocal, and Ling Yuwei also suffered a great backlash from the force. However, at this moment, Ling Yuwei's will was extremely firm and her belief was extremely strong.
She remembered Qin Feng's words: when your will is strong enough, and when you have unwavering confidence in the sword in your hand, the spirit sword will resonate with you.
Sword intent arises from this, power comes from this, and you will have the potential to unleash power beyond your own level.
At this moment, Ling Yuwei's expression was extremely firm. Despite the numbness from the shock, she forced herself not to back down.
Under Ling Yaoyao's incredulous gaze, they launched another attack, and this time there were no surprises.
Ling Yuwei placed the spirit sword in front of Ling Yaoyao's chest.
Seeing this, Ling Yunbo immediately announced the result: "Ling Yuwei wins."
Ling Yaoyao stared in horror at the spirit sword that had stopped in front of her. She was stunned for a second before she came to her senses and accepted the fact that she had failed.
She began to scrutinize Ling Yuwei, noticing the resolute look on her face and even the bloodstains at the corner of her mouth.
"You won, which gave me a big surprise. It seems that the person you mentioned is indeed a master."
Ling Yuwei sheathed her spirit sword and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth with her hand.
It wasn't that she was seriously injured; it was just that when she was fighting Ling Yaoyao, she hadn't held back her strength in order to gain the upper hand, and she choked on a mouthful of blood.
In response to Ling Yaoyao's words, Ling Yuwei nodded firmly, "Of course."
Ling Yuwei's victory surprised many members of the Ling family.
The happiest person was Ling Yunfei. His son won, his daughter won, he was the biggest winner.
Lin Xu from the Burning Heaven Sect congratulated Ling Yuwei, saying, "Congratulations, Yuwei, on winning this round."
Ling Yuwei frowned, clearly disliking Lin Xu's form of address, and remained silent.
Lin Xu wasn't angry; he just smiled and looked at her.
The competition between the two sides was not over yet. Ling Yunbo announced that the competition would continue, "Next, we will have the final round, for those aged twenty-five to thirty."
The Ling family disciples in this round are generally at the Nascent Soul stage, and some are even at the Deity Transformation stage.
The battle on the battle platform was extremely fierce, and even the nascent soul's Dharma form was summoned.
...
After several rounds of competition, the top three were finally determined.
With this, the Ling family's internal competition came to a complete end.
As the current head of the Ling family, Ling Yunfei had to say a few words at this time.
"Thank you to all fellow Daoists for giving the Ling family face and coming to witness the ceremony. This concludes the Ling family competition."
In addition, our Ling family has put a lot of effort into creating many excellent weapons.
As you all saw before, if you've found anything you're interested in, you can move on to continue the transaction. Thank you again.
After Ling Yunfei finished his polite remarks, everyone should have left, some to buy things, and others to go about their business.
But most people remained unmoved, sitting still in their seats.
This scene made Ling Yunfei frown, his intuition telling him that something bad was about to happen, and the rest of the Ling family also sensed that something was amiss.
Since these people were invited by the Ling family, they were welcome to stay a little longer. There was no reason for them to be turned away. The atmosphere became somewhat awkward for a moment.
Qin Feng saw an unusual look on the faces of these powerful figures—a look of anticipation for a good show to begin.
Ling Hao looked at these people with a puzzled expression. "What's going on? Something's not right."
When Ling Yunfei saw that the situation was a bit awkward and wanted to say a few more words, Lin Xu from the Burning Heaven Sect stood up.
Lin Xu straightened his clothes to make himself look more proper and dignified. He coughed lightly, attracting everyone's attention.
Ling Hao looked at Lin Xu with disgust. "It's him. What does this disgusting person want?"
Ling Yuwei also frowned, "Xiao Hao, calm down and let's see what happens."
Qin Feng scanned the reactions of everyone present.
Ling Yunfei's expression showed doubt and confusion.
Ling Yunbo, on the other hand, wore a smile, filled with anticipation.
The people from the three great dynasties and four great families also watched Lin Xu's performance with expectant expressions, eager to see what would happen.
Lin Xu bowed deeply to Ling Yunfei, his manner very solemn.
This left Ling Yunfei completely bewildered. "Lin Xu, what do you mean by this? Why are you bowing so deeply to me?"
Lin Xu, with a serious expression and earnest tone, cupped his hands and said:
"Senior Ling, I believe you know that I fell in love with Yuwei at first sight and have been deeply in love with her ever since."
"I, Lin Xu, humbly request that you, senior, grant me your blessing to marry Yuwei. I promise to treat her well and will never let her down."
Lin Xu spoke with such sincerity that it didn't seem fake at all; anyone who didn't know him would probably have been fooled.
The one who reacted the fastest and most vehemently was not Ling Yuwei, nor Ling Yunfei, but Ling Hao.
Ling Hao suddenly stood up and pointed at Lin Xu's nose, cursing loudly.
"Lin Xu, how dare you! My sister has already said she doesn't want to talk to you, but you still shamelessly keep clinging to her."
"You have no shame, but my sister does! Get out of here right now, you're not welcome in the Ling family."
Ling Hao was furious, and after cursing and swearing, he was panting heavily.
