The bright, dazzling cross-shaped sword light flashed like lightning, clearing away all of He Ermei's attacks, and with unparalleled power, it slammed into her armor.
He Ermei flew backward like a kite with a broken string, landing on the edge of the arena. Her body traced an arc in the air, like a falling meteor.
Sparks flickered on her armor, as if testifying to the power of the sword strike just now.
However, this sword strike did not truly harm He Ermei. She knew that her opponent had shown mercy; otherwise, this strike would have been enough to seriously injure her. A hint of gratitude and awe appeared on her face, and she immediately admitted defeat.
Immediately, the other freshmen from Qianlong Prefecture University rushed onto the stage. Zhou Jianfeng smiled and readily allowed them to launch the first attack.
His figure darted across the arena like a ghost, easily dodging his opponent's attacks.
He then countered with a cross-shaped sword strike, the blade flashing like falling stars, instantly defeating everyone. Each defeated freshman wore an expression of surprise and resentment; they had never imagined Zhou Jianfeng could be so powerful.
In the end, in just over thirty breaths, all the freshmen of Qianlong Prefectural University, except for Xu Lai, were defeated.
Zhou Jianfeng, however, showed no signs of fatigue. His breathing remained steady, as if the previous battle had been merely a warm-up. He stood on the arena, continuing his challenge, like an unshakeable mountain.
The atmosphere was tense and exciting, with cheers and gasps of amazement rising and falling from the audience. They witnessed a spectacular battle and felt Zhou Jianfeng's formidable strength.
"This kid has improved so much in just six months," Zhou Yijian said with some surprise from the stands of the War God Martial Arts University.
“Yi Jian, your cousin’s strength has improved quite a bit. His Cross Wisdom Sword is probably almost catching up with your level.” Li Jiuzhong asked him with a smile.
"I heard that during their month-long freshman trial, they went through several life-or-death battles with the werewolf clan. It seems that real life-or-death battles can indeed promote the growth of strength," Zhou Yijian said thoughtfully.
"Although we also fight against the demons, the demons that are kept in captivity seem to lack something and are difficult to put enough pressure on us."
"My cousin went to the Wilderness Martial Arts University to avoid a marriage alliance with the Qian family. I wonder how much her strength has improved?" Li Jiuzhong nodded in agreement.
"Now that Xu Lai is coming up, we should be able to see Zhou Jianfeng's strength, right?" Zhou Jian said expectantly.
"I didn't expect the freshmen at the Wilderness Martial Arts University to be so strong. Zhou Jianfeng, who is ranked eighth, defeated seven of them. I wonder how powerful the others are?"
Seeing Zhou Jianfeng's performance, the freshmen from the three prestigious universities were immediately impressed and filled with anticipation.
"Xu Lai from Qianlong Prefecture University, please enlighten me." At this moment, the last remaining contestant from the opposing school came up and greeted him with a cupped hand.
Xu Lai looked very serious. He was confident in the strength of his three brothers, believing that they were no less capable than most students from the four prestigious universities. The two battles between Xu Ping and Xu Fei had also given them confidence.
However, when Zhou Jianfeng took the stage, they felt the strength of the top 20 freshmen in the country and also felt tremendous pressure. They then realized that although the three brothers were not weak, there was still a gap between them and these top 20 freshmen, not to mention those top 10 freshmen.
"It seems there really are people stronger than us, and the world is vast. The strength of the three of us brothers is nothing special. However, if we unleash our combined attack, we are absolutely confident that we can defeat any of the top ten freshmen."
Xu Lai secretly warned himself, but he was also full of confidence in the combined attack skills of his three brothers. He believed that the combined martial arts skills of his three brothers could defeat any of the top ten freshmen.
"I've been waiting for you." Zhou Jianfeng's previous gentleness vanished, and he instantly emanated boundless sharpness. Then, he directly condensed a hundred semi-transparent sword energies above his head.
"A hundred sword energies! This is the perfected D-level sword energy storm!" someone in the audience exclaimed in shock.
"I never expected that among the freshmen of the Wilderness Martial Arts University, someone would be able to master the D-level Sword Qi Storm in just six months. With such talent, perhaps they can successfully master the B-level Sword Qi Storm by the time they graduate in four years?"
"Look, none of the freshmen at the Savage Martial Arts University seem surprised. Could it be that some of them have also mastered the D-level Sword Qi Storm technique to perfection?"
