Chapter 1403 Checks and Balances
She stood across from the South Pavilion, calm and composed, her eyes filled with only calm analysis and a desire for victory.
Her high ponytail was standing upright, her forehead was smooth and clean, and her eyes showed only determination.
Nan Ting swallowed unconsciously as he watched.
Why did she feel like she couldn't beat this person?
After the barrier was set up, Nan Ting took the lead and displayed the strength of the seventh level of the Emperor Realm.
The strength displayed by Helian Hong was also the seventh level of the Emperor Realm.
She is not Gui Yue and does not have an absolute advantage, so she has to test and find out the opponent's bottom line bit by bit, including the opponent's true strength and trump cards.
Nan Ting knew in his heart that this was not the opponent's true strength. The long sword was as flexible as silk and attacked Helian Hong's neck in a strange arc.
The sharp sword blade was about to cut the opponent's skin, but Helian Hong bent down to avoid the attack, and at the same time stabbed Nan Ting's lower back with a sword.
"Sizzle—"
The sound of a long sword cutting through clothes was heard, and Nan Ting was still frightened.
Because she knew very well that the sword did not cut her waist because she dodged quickly. If she had been slower, she would definitely have been injured.
This person's strength is really terrifying.
This also silenced the other people from the Ninth Continent. They originally thought that the Nanting family would have no problem winning this game, after all, this was the first game, but were they going to lose to the opponent right from the start?
Nan Ting pursed his lips, spread out his palms, and slowly added spiritual power. Sure enough, he jumped from the strength of the seventh level of the Emperor Realm to the strength of the first level of the Emperor Realm.
"I told you, Miss Nan Ting's strength must be hidden."
"Yes, Miss Nan Ting shouldn't lose the first game. She must have a backup plan."
"But...could the person opposite also be hiding his strength?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent at the same time, and then looked at Helian Hong. The latter's spiritual power was slowly increasing, and in the eyes of everyone, he was promoted to the first level of the Emperor Realm!
She is actually also a first-level emperor!
"Miss Nanting is really in trouble now. Her strength should no longer be hidden."
"Probably not. A year ago, Miss Nan Ting was at the seventh level of the Emperor Realm. It took a lot of effort to reach this level. It's impossible for her to improve any further."
This person really came right. At this moment, Nan Ting looked at Helian Hong, who was also a first-level emperor, and her face turned red in an instant.
It turned red with anxiety.
She had no idea what to do. After all, in previous competitions, no one else could be stronger than her. She had no rivals among her peers. Sister Na Yan and Prince Xuanyuan were both older than her.
But now…
No matter what, I can only fight hard.
Helian Hong observed Nan Ting carefully and noticed her nervousness and helplessness. She knew that she must not have much experience in combat, so she quickly came up with a plan.
The next moment, Helian Hong took the initiative, gained the upper hand, and rushed straight to Nan Ting's face.
Since she was at a loss, she might as well catch her off guard, seize the initiative and attack, using one move after another, making Nan Ting flustered.
She increased her speed to the extreme, appearing around Nan Ting like a ghost, but each time she made a feint and did not actually launch an attack.
But even so, Nan Ting didn't know where to start to check and balance Helian Hong.
